COLUMBIA — Because Shara Stafford's previous times had qualified her for the NCAA Championship meet next month, she wasn't making this weekend's Big 12 Conference Swimming and Diving Championships a top priority.
Turns out she didn't need to give her absolute best.
Stafford, who is finishing her senior season at Missouri after swimming for Florida for three years, beat out Texas' Karlee Bispo in two close races to claim the Newcomer of the Meet award.
On Friday night, Stafford bested Bispo by two-tenths of a second to win the 200-yard freestyle. She won Saturday's 100-yard freestyle by one one-hundreth of a second.
Stafford and Bispo have competed before at last season's NCAA Championships, but this weekend marked their first time competing for a conference title.
"This is the first time we've been able to really race when we're not tapered and swimming our fastest," Stafford said. "It's fun to get to race somebody that fast."
Missouri swimming coach Greg Rodenbaugh said he thinks Stafford's successful weekend on short rest bodes well for her success at the next level.
"I can't wait to see her swim in three weeks," he said. "I think she's in a great spot to just do some really nice things at the NCAAs."
Stafford said the biggest attribute she has gained in her year at Missouri was a new mental toughness. Although her focus is on NCAAs, she said the weekend was a positive step toward the meet.
"It's definitely a confidence booster," she said. "I went a lot of best times this weekend, and the ones that weren't best times were faster than I swam last season."
Missouri's only other gold medalist of the night was junior Dominique Bouchard, who defended her title in the 200-yard backstroke race, blowing out her nearest opponent by nearly three seconds.
Bouchard, who holds the Big 12 record in the event, finished second in 200-yard backstroke in last year's NCAA Championships. She will return this year to see if she can take the title.
Despite the fast finishes, Missouri's women finished third of the five teams, while the men finished third of three. Texas A&M won the women's title, while Texas claimed its 33rd straight conference title in men's swimming and diving.
Missouri has qualified twice as many swimmers for the NCAA Championships this year as it did in 2011, but Rodenbaugh says the team has a long way to go before it is at the elite level.
"We're just not quite there yet on the NCAA level, but we're real close on a bunch of places," he said. "We had a lot of guys and girls do really well this weekend, just not well enough in some cases."
On the men's side, Rodenbaugh praised freshmen Mack Darragh, who took second in the 200-yard butterfly, and Igor Kozlovskij, who took third in the 200-yard breaststroke. He also noted that freshman Ramon Melo broke a major milestone when he broke 20 seconds in Thursday's 50-meter freestyle race.

Report Bank Intimidation to Your State AG
Posted By Barry Ritholtz On December 15, 2010 @ 7:21 am In Credit,Legal,Really, really bad calls | Comments Disabled
Back in October [1], I mentioned the website that gone viral: "Where's the Note.com [2]." It allowed homeowners to easily request to see a copy of their mortgage note.
Yesterday [3], I noted that at least one Homeowner had made a "wheresthenote.com [2]" Mortgage Note request, only to see Bank of America report the request as a dispute to the credit agencies, knocking 40 points off his FICO score. If these facts check out, that is a violation of the Fair Credit reporting act, and possibly other state and local laws.
As it turns out Wheresthenote.com [2] has received numerous complaints about this. Their response has been to set up a form to file a complaint to your State Attorney General [4] about illegal bank intimidation.
This may turn out to be a smart tactic. Elected Senators and Congressmen seems to be bought lock stock and barrel by the banking lobby. And the State AGs seem to be harder to buy off. Congress does the bidding of their banking masters, so looking for any positive outcome there is futile. But ion the Fraudclosure issue, the state AGs have been dead on.
Here is the Wheresthenote announcement:
Update: Homeowners are sending us reports of banks responding with threats and intimidation.
It is your legal right to demand to see your original, signed mortgage note.
It is illegal for banks to negatively report to your credit file during the 60 day period after requesting your note simply because you made a request to see it.
If you received a response that you feel is threatening or intimidating in nature, contact your state's Attorney General and push them to hold the banks accountable under the law. [4]
UPDATE: December 15, 2010 11:05am
Here is a stunning example of this: A state legislator in Arizona was sued for asking Colonial Savings about their Note. Michele Reagan is current on her mortgage, never missed a payment, was never even late.
Her and her husband were sued for even asking. Here is local TV station CBS 5 (KPHO):
"Arizona Rep. Michele Reagan, R-District 8, is better known for fighting for new laws, but now, she is speaking about her fight against a lawsuit.
Reagan is being sued by her mortgage company after she questioned who owned held the note on her home. "It's really scary," she said, "I think that this really needs to be brought to light that this is happening to people in Arizona."
Reagan had wanted to find out she and her husband, David Gulino, could refinance their south Scottsdale home. "In doing research, I began to wonder if the lender even owned the note to my home," she said. "So I sent them a letter and asked them and asked them several things. I want to know who owns my property. Am I paying the right person?"
Soon after, Colonial Savings filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court against Reagan and her husband. The company says the couple is trying "to rescind their home loan," or back out on the loan. "We're not interested in walking," Reagan said. "We're not interested in saying we're not going to pay. We just need a little help with the interest rate."

In the first chapter of A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court, Twain addresses readers as himself, telling of a trip he made to England when he made the acquaintance of a stranger at Warwick Castle. This stranger tells him that he was in England at the time of King Arthur. That night, the narrator reads a story about Sir Launcelot fighting giants, and the stranger comes to his room.
The stranger, Hank Morgan (his name is never actually revealed until Chapter XXXIX), explains that he was a gunsmith in Hartford, Connecticut, when, during a fight, he was hit on the head with a crowbar. When he came to, he did not recognize his surroundings and was told that he was in Camelot. He gives the narrator a manuscript of his journal from that time, and the rest of the novel is told as if he...

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
I am looking for a vintage looking typeface, similar to the one above. I am not worried about it being distressed, but want it to have an Victorian/early 20th century feel. Certainly serifed, and with similar line thicknesses (as seen on the A).
It doesn't have to be shadowed either, as can add that if required...
So far the closest I have found is: ITC Quorum BT, but am looking for more suitable options.
I maybe that I end up hand drawing it, but would like a base font to alter.
Any help, suggestions, or places to look(such as specific library's/books) would be great.
Thanks in advance.

Should also add it is going to be a display face (for a logo), ideally in upper and lower case, with a few different cuts... this is in the ideal world, and accept that might not be possible!
Check Letterhead Fonts, Jim Parkinson's work, or Font Bros. for starters. A search of MyFonts using the keyword "Victorian" will yield some options, too.
Letterhead: http://www.letterheadfonts.com/
Jim Parkinson: http://www.typedesign.com
Font Bros.: http://www.fontbros.com
Look in the Dan Solo type catalogs
Marcox- Thank you for the great links... Will digest them and let you know what I find. I love the letterheadfonts website especially.
Robert- I will search him out, thank you.
Just a quick update- This ticks most of the boxes, might tweak a little, add swashes etc, but pretty darn good!
Cant download it till im back home, as I need to buy it when my IP address and my billing address match, which wont be for a month. Bit outdated, but guess its an anti piracy measure.
Thank you to you both.

Hot answers tagged cleaning
You've asked several different questions, so here goes:
How effective is it? It is a lot more effective in cameras that have it than those that don't. Not trying to be a smarty-pants, but since most manufacturers adopted automatic self cleaning systems, the number of complaints regarding dusty sensors went down by several orders of magnitude. See labnut's ...
Do not clean your lens (too much). Cleaning marks are by far the most common source of damage to lenses. Shooting under normal conditions, it takes a large amount of dust and grime to have any effect. The same approach applies to filters; good filters use the same type of glass and coatings as your lens (though perhaps not the same absolute quality).
If acids in human's breath are enough to degrade Nikon lenses, I think that's the best argument yet for buying any other brand.
I've been involved in photography for 27 years. This is the first I've ever heard of "harmful acids in breath" that could harm a lens. I don't believe I've been living under a rock.
I could be wrong, and my lenses could be days ...
A rocket blower can be worse than not cleaning at all. it inhales air from your environment - which can be dustier than your sensor.
I use Pec Pad (pecpads) and Eclipse cleaning solution, with a sensor swipe. This link has all of these products in the search. It works well to remove spots.
A tip - take a picture of a clear blue sky at f/22 to identify ...
Some dust spots on the sensor will absolutely not shift with air-pressure (blowing) alone. To shift them you need to wet clean the sensor.
I was nervous the first time I did this as I can understand most people would be. But it is not that difficult or risky, basically it involves wiping the sensor assembly with a soft rubber "wand" with a cleaning fluid ...
If I understand your question correctly, stopping the aperture down to its narrowest ensures that light is focused as tightly as possible. If you take a photograph at a wider aperture, excess non-incident light will still make it to the sensor, and mitigate the effects of sensor dust.
To put that in more precise technical terms...with a narrow aperture, the ...
For all the following: YMMV*, caveat emptor, no responsibility taken for advice given, you decide whether to try this at home. It may even work :-). Be aware that damage may already be fatal and/or that fatal (to the lens) damage may occur along the way. Best attitude is to regard the lens as a writeoff now, with anything you can gain from it by the methods ...
I'm willing to bet that that's dust on your sensor, not on the lens.
If you stop down to f/22, that can help to confirm that assertion, one way or the other. My sensor dust would really show up at the smaller apertures.
If they are indeed on the sensor (and they really look like the dust spots I got on my d70 and d200), you can try some of the Visible ...
Don't use that lens because in that case, there will be chance that water enters in the camera body and make a fatal damage.
Stop using it immediately to avoid short circuit and/or ruining your camera body (and ruining this lens permanently)
Take it to a nearby camera service center. If you still have warranty, then better contact them first.
Best of ...
I've not seen this recommended for a number of reasons:
The high-pressure air can cause dust to move from a bad place to a worse place (as opposed to being removed altogether).
The condensation caused by the pressure drop & cooling of the compressed air causes stuff to get frosty. This should be temporary, but isn't likely to help in the short run.
A controversial subject!
One tip: don't over-clean. There's no need to keep your lens free of minor dust or worry about minor goop spots or even scratches. For an extreme example, check out this lens.
I haven't done any analisys, but here is my take on this.
There is no doubt that Nikon knows what they are talking about when it comes to lenses and lens care. However, in this case I suspect they are covering their butt. Unfortunately manufacturers are driven to do that more and more because every once in a while someone does something stupid, perhaps ...
If the dust was really on the sensor proper, you'd be absolutely correct.
At least in the normal case, it's virtually impossible for dust to get on the surface of the sensor itself, because there's a couple millimeters or so of filters directly in front of the sensor. The front-most of these is (at least in the usual case) the AA filer.
The important thing ...
A self cleaning sensor is never necessary but is always nice.
At the end of this post I've described Checking for Sensor Dust. This is not wholly intuitive and this method may be of value to others.
Dust will "pump" through many zoom lenses as they are zoomed in and out. internal volume increases or decreases and air is drawn in and expelled. Some are ...
Most cloths can be used actually without damaging the lens. However some may leave the lens with lint or fabric residue.
The most important thing is that it must be completely clean and untreated by any chemicals. Cloths used in gloves or jackets often has water resistant coatings which may not be liked be the lens. The main reason for not using a sleeve is ...
Microfiber cloths are pretty much all I've ever used to wipe off things like fingerprints and smudges.
I've cleaned the inside (bottom side of prism) recently of my 30D. You can easily spot the viewfinder element when you take off the lens. I then use the same sensor swabs and eclipse fluid as I use for the sensor. I suggest you bend the sensor swab stick 90 deg so you can sweep is more easily across the viewfinder. I think I also cut off a bit of the sensor ...
You asked how effective the sensor dust removal systems are for Nikon and Canon cameras and whether they have improved.
To answer the questions I searched the DPReview forums for mentions of sensor dust.
The search was conducted first for the entire period of all known postings and then for the last 12 months only.
The search of all postings confirmed ...
I do it regularly, I don't regard it as difficult. It's not that risky in the grand scheme of things but it's riskier than it used to be, especially with larger full frame sensors. Before the useless "self cleaning" function was implemented, the low pass filter assembly sat right on the sensor. Now there is an air gap to facilitate vibrating the LPF in order ...
C is the correct answer.
Well, actually it's A if you look at the sensor from the back, but my
guess is that you will turn the camera around and access the sensor from
the front. So it's C.
Dust inside the lens shouldn't be a problem, as it will always be thrown out of focus enough as not to make a difference. Even on the smallest apertures, the depth of field won't extend far enough forwards to make it visible.
If it really bothers you, take it to an independent photo shop and see if they offer lens servicing.
It is possible to wash most of them in a washing machine -- just be careful not to use any fabric softener.
If you're ultra-paranoid about your glass (like me), you may want to write off any dirty cloths for use as screen wipes, or pass to relatives for use as glasses wipes, and replace with a brand new cloth for your lenses.
I can't speak to the microfiber cloths specifically, but often the Canon/Nikon-branded small accessories like this really are nothing special. For example, I had some Canon lens cleaning fluid and it was pretty much crap. Stuff like this isn't actually made by them anyway - it's 3rd parties that license the brands.
I've not had great experience with ...
Take your camera to an authorized repair center and have it thoroughly cleaned.
Sounds to me you've more than a small mote of dust in there, given where you've been and what happened I'd be worried about mold too.
Washing it thoroughly in fresh water is better than doing nothing.
I have "saved" a cellphone that was dropped in a bucket of concentrated water/chlorine solution and a radio pager that was dropped in salt water - in each case by very very very thorough washing in fresh cold water with no cleaning agents and long slow drying. A lens MAY respond to the same ...
Well, the viewfinder itself is not going to cause infections, but some of the germs that cause conjunctivitis are highly contagious. If you're passing your camera to people with red eye, ask them to wash their hands and to use the LCD screen instead.
In general, though, these germs are not particularly long-lived away from a human host. Just letting the ...
When it is dirty, no more or less often than that.
If you can't see any obvious dirt or fingerprints then don't touch the lens surface at all with anything. Every time you touch a lens element it's an opportunity for damage so it's not really worth it unless the dirt is visible in your output.
I was watching a video about the 645D and the Pentax rep mentioned, in the course of the interview, that when doing dust removal it is best to hold the camera in landscape orientation as level as you can to get the most optimal outcome. He also mentioned that it applied to all dSLR cameras with sensor shake dust removal, not specifically the Pentax ones. ...

But the world renowned venue also has links to the British & Irish Lions, both in a rugby and cricket context. When the pioneering Lions toured New Zealand and Australia in 1888 they played one of their 19 games under the then 'Victorian Rules' (nowadays Aussie Rules) at the MCG against the top team of the age, Carlton.
There was a crowd of 25,000 at the ground to see what turned out to be a bit of a miss match as the home champions ran out winners by 14.17 (101) to 2.7 (19). The star of the show for the Lions was Andrew Stoddart, who returned to the MCG four more times with the England cricket team during the Ashes series in 1891/92, 1894/5 (twice) and 1897/98
The man who took over the captaincy of the 1888 Lions following the tragic death of tour skipper Robert Seddon, who drowned in a sculling accident on the River Maitland, led England to a thrilling 3-2 Ashes victory in 1894/95 and notched his highest Test score of 173 at the MCG.
His second innings century not only set-up a victory by 94 runs, and put England on course for their fifth Ashes triumph 'Down Under', but was also only the sixth Test hundred scored on the ground and the biggest of them all.
In 1899, the Lions got to play the big arena when they beat a Victoria side 30-0, while they also played at the famous cricket ground in 1930, when they won 41-36 against Victoria once again.

Ghost of Frankenstein (1942)
The townspeople have had enough! With the burgomaster's approval, the Castle Frankenstein is finally destroyed for good, but the explosions free The Monster from the sulfur pits below! Ygor has also miraculously survived, and the two escape to the small town of Vasaria, which is home to Dr. Henry Frankenstein's second son Ludwig. Using a treatment of his own design, the younger Frankenstein hopes to replace The Monster's defective brain with a healthy one, but Ygor seems to have other plans! GHOST OF FRANKENSTEIN revisits similar themes to the previous production, with Sir Cedric Hardwicke assuming the role of Ludwig Frankenstein this time around. Unfortunately, The Monster not only receives less screen time, but he is reduced even further into a lumbering oaf. Boris Karloff is greatly missed, and Lon Chaney Jr.'s zombified performance lacks personality. It is Bela Lugosi who comes through once again with another playful performance as the conspiring Ygor. GHOST OF FRANKENSTEIN would be one of the first films to show the downward decline of the Universal monster movies, but series crossovers would give The Monster a few more jolts of energy.

Goodbye Scott Dixon
Scott Dixon had dreams of moving from the Indy Racing League and becoming a star in Formula 1. Earlier this year the New Zealand driver had two tests with the BMW Williams team but it is fairly clear that the relationship did not gel and our sources say that there was no chance for Dixon with Williams. There was also some talk about a possible deal with Toyota in F1 but obviously that door is also closed as Dixon has now signed a new long-term deal with his current employer Target Chip Ganassi Racing.
"There is more that we can do together," Dixon says. "I want to defend my championship and I want to win the Indianapolis 500."

While Dr. Steven Pinker has said that music is nothing more than "auditory cheesecake" piggybacking on the powers of speech, Levitin is among those who believe music is something more.
"Darwin thought [music was important] for sexual selection. I'm not going to contradict him. The evidence for that is good. But I also think it was and continues to be a form of communication for communicating emotions, and that as a form of emotional communication, it can actually be better than language," Levitin says.
Beyond (or maybe because of) its involvement in critical brain areas, music is something capable of spanning wide social and cultural chasms, bringing people of disparate backgrounds together, partly through its ability to concisely address universal human truths, and partly, it would seem, because of something even more innate.

BMW 330i Replacement Fan Clutch Information
Your BMW 330i isn't merely a car or truck, it's a way of life. A car coming from BMW can be relied on to deliver consistently trustworthy manufacturing standards. Competing cars really envy the knockout design of the well appointed BMW, and others aren't as well crafted.Because you go with a trustworthy, historic BMW, you're certain you'll enjoy fantastic design. To maintain the style and elegance you selected with your BMW 330i, it's important to select only the highest-quality OEM and aftermarket car parts. When collectors want the best in luxury, design and dependability they go with BMW. BMW is a respected producer of long lasting and powerful cars that also supply great design and solid style on the highway. Does it make any sense to spend a hefty price on a great luxury car, if you plan to cut corners on new parts and accessories? For automobiles that provide driver control, comfort, and performance, consumers trust in BMW. Rely on cars from BMW to deliver excellent reliability as well as nice looks.People who want the most out of their vehicle know that only the best quality aftermarket and OEM parts should be used for repairs and maintenance. Your car requires the most top-notch parts you can find. The BMW 330i Fan Clutch connects to a drive pulley via a clutch, permitting the fan to operate at a range of speeds according to temperature conditions. The radiator system operates poorly without the BMW 330i Fan Clutch, which controls the speed at which the fan operates. Your automobile's BMW 330i Fan Clutch conserves fuel by setting the vehicle's radiator fan speed so it turns at half-speed when the motor is cool and faster once it gets hot. In running BMW 330i Fan Clutches, a calibrated thermostat administers a valve which manages the flow of fluid between the chambers of the vehicle's clutch assembly. The BMW 330i Fan Clutch cuts down on stress on the engine, saving fuel, by permitting the fan to spin at full speed when the engine is running hot and slow while the engine is cool. We here at PartsGeek.com understand what it's like to take pride in your car, and so we are dedicated to helping you find the parts you need for any automotive job.

Summary: Planning & Budgeting Brief 1 Date: January 26, 2011 Subject: Variations in Institutional Autonomy among the UW and its Peers This brief explores varying levels of institutional autonomy--an institution's legal authority to manage its internal business and affairs free from external control--among the UW's Global Challenge State (GCS) Peers and the University of Michigan. It finds that while constitutionally protected institutional autonomy is rare and unlikely to emerge where it does not already exist, several states have expanded institutions' ability to manage their own resources. However, even in the case of full constitutional autonomy the state often has the ability to manage certain aspects of institutional business, particularly pricing, public health and safety, employment, compensation, and accountability to the public. Introduction The so-called "privatization" of public universities has been a hot topic in the US for at least a decade as two recessions have accelerated a decades-long trend of reduced state support for higher education. In fact, after recent cuts, state support for many large public research institutions already comprises less than 10 percent of the annual university budget, and tuition revenue now exceeds state funding for the first time in history in such states as Washington and California. However, isolating the research, health, and auxiliary enterprises reveals that the remaining state support is still vital to the core educational enterprise. In fact, IPEDS data show that state appropriations cover from 37 percent to 100 percent (42 percent at the UW) of instructional expenditures for the group of institutions in the chart below. Selected Comparative Data for UW Global Challenge State Peers (plus Michigan) Institution

Newton, Derrick (2012)
Ph.D. thesis, University of Birmingham.
| AbstractSegregation of duties and least privilege are two business principles that protect an organisation's valuable data from information leak. In this thesis we demonstrate how these business principles can be addressed through workflow-based access control. We present Business Process Access Control (BPAC), a workflow-based access control modelling environment that properly enacts the key business principles through constraints and we implement BPAC in the applied pi calculus. We ensure that constraints are correctly applied within our BPAC implementation by introducing the concept of stores. We propose a selection of security properties in respect of the business principles and we develop tests for these properties. The collusion metric is introduced as a simple indicator as to the resistance of a workflow-based access control policy to fraudulent collusion. We identify an anonymity property for workflows as the inability of an outside observer to correctly match agents to workflow tasks and we propose that anonymity provides protection against collusion. We introduce a lightweight version of labelled bisimilarity: the abstraction test and we apply this test to workflow security properties. We develop a test for anonymity using labelled bisimilarity and we demonstrate its application through simple examples. |

Rent Supplement is paid to people living in private rented accommodation who cannot provide for the cost of their accommodation from their own resources. In general, you will qualify for a Rent Supplement, if your only income is a social welfare payment and you satisfy the other conditions - see 'Rules' below.
The amount of Rent Supplement you get will be calculated to ensure that your income after paying rent does not fall below a minimum level.
If your circumstances change you may no longer qualify for Rent Supplement or the amount of your payment may change. Read more about Rent Supplement and changes to your circumstances. You can also read FAQs about Rent Supplement from the Department of Social Protection.
Revised rent limits for the Rent Supplement scheme were announced in June 2013 and came into effect from Monday 17 June 2013.
In some parts of Ireland rents have risen since the limits were last revised. Community Welfare Service staff have statutory discretionary power to exceed the limits in areas where rents have increased significantly and where tenants may be at risk of losing their home. This applies both to people getting Rent Supplement and new applicants. Tenants in the Dublin area and in Cork city can access the Tenancy Protection Service provided by Threshold on 1800 454 454.
In 2013 the Government approved a plan for a new Housing Assistance Payment (HAP). This involves the transfer of responsibility for recipients of Rent Supplement with a long-term housing need from the Department of Social Protection to housing authorities. The legislation to implement the HAP is the Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2014 (pdf).
HAP is operational in several housing authorities (Cork County Council, Limerick City and County Council, Waterford City and County Council, South Dublin County Council, Kilkenny County Council, Monaghan County Council and Louth County Council). Find out where HAP is in operation. It will be rolled out to remaining housing authorities from 2015.
Different rules apply for Rent Supplement depending on whether you live in a HAP area or in an area where HAP is not yet in operation. See 'Rules' below for details.
If you live in a HAP area you are only eligible for Rent Supplement if you are a genuine (bona fide) tenant and meet one of the following conditions:
If you don't meet these conditions you must contact your local authority to have your housing needs assessed. If you are eligible for and in need of housing support you may be able to access housing under the HAP scheme or local authority housing.
If you are currently getting long-term Rent Supplement (18 months or more) and you live in a HAP area you can be asked to apply for social housing support to your local authority. You must apply within 6 weeks of being asked to do so (if necessary an extra 6 weeks can be allowed). You may then be transferred to HAP or to another form of social housing support.
You may get Rent Supplement if you have been living for 6 months (183 days) out of the last 12 months in one, or a combination, of the following:
Rent Supplement will only be provided if the accommodation is suitable for your needs. Rent Supplement is not generally paid if the rent is above the maximum rent limit set for your county (see 'Rates' below for the current limits and circumstances where these limits may be waived).
You must also:
You won't qualify for Rent Supplement if you:
Renting from a parent: You cannot get Rent Supplement to help you pay rent to your parent if you are living in the family home. If your parent owns a second property, you will generally not get Rent Supplement for this this property unless you can prove that you are a genuine (bona fide) tenant
Sharing with your landlord: You may be entitled to get Rent Supplement if you are living in your landlord's home. It must be a genuine landlord/tenant arrangement. Your landlord has to fill in part of the form and provide his or her PPS number (see 'How to apply' below).
You will not qualify for Rent Supplement if you are in full-time employment (30 hours or more a week). (In the case of couples, if one of a couple is in full time employment, both are excluded from claiming Rent Supplement). Claims from self-employed people are assessed on the individual circumstances of the case and you may be asked to show that you are working less than 30 hours a week. If you are working over 30 hours a week in emploment or self-employment or if you are getting the Back to Work Enterprise Allowance you must be deemed eligible for the Rental Accommodation Scheme (RAS) by your local authority to continue to get Rent Supplement.
However, you will be reassessed for Rent Supplement and some of your additional income including some of your income from employment will be taken into account. As a result of the reassessment you may or may not continue to qualify for Rent Supplement. If you do qualify for Rent Supplement you may get a different rate of Supplement.
The capital value of property (except your own home), savings and investments is assessed as follows:
Capital | Weekly means assessed as |
First €5,000 | Nil |
Next €10,000 | €1 per €1,000 |
Next €25,000 | €2 per €1,000 |
Any capital over €40,000 | €4 per €1,000. |
Income from the following sources is disregarded or not taken in account when calculating the amount of Rent Supplement you qualify for:
*Additional household income is income from part-time employment or part-time self-employment, Family Income Supplement (FIS), Community Employment (CE), the Tús scheme, JobBridge,the Rural Social Scheme, Momentum, Part-time Job Incentive Scheme, Skillnets, Work Placement Scheme, Gateway, Back to Work Allowance, Back to Work Enterprise Allowance or a FET (formerly FÁS) course. Part of a maintenance payment is also assessed as additional household income (see below).
If you were getting Rent Supplement before 5 June 2007, you can continue to have your income assessed using the old income disregards, unless the current income disregards ensure a more favourable assessment. However, if you do not claim Rent Supplement for more than 13 weeks you will be assessed using the current income disregards. (See 'Further information' below for more information on how income was assessed for Rent Supplement before 5 June 2007.)
Maintenance is assessed as additional household income (see above) and maintenance payments up to €95.23 per week are assessed in full. The household income disregard (see above) applies to maintenance payments above this amount. The reason for this is that the first €95.23 per week of maintenance payments are considered to be a contribution towards your housing expenses.
Example: if your only additional household income is maintenance, all of your maintenance payment up to €95.23 per week is assessed in full. The household income disregard of €75 applies to sums above this, so that any maintenance between €95.23 and €170.23 is not taken into account. 25% of all maintenance over €170.23 is also not taken into account.
Once the amount of Rent Supplement you qualify for has been worked out, it will be reduced by a minimum of €30. This is because you must pay at least €30 a week towards your rent. You may pay more than €30 because you are also required to contribute any additional assessable means that you have above the appropriate basic Supplementary Welfare Allowance rate towards your rent. If you are one of a couple and are claiming Rent Supplement you must pay at least €40 a week towards your rent.
Any non-dependent household members who are solely dependent on a personal social welfare payment must also contribute €30. However, if benefit and privilege has been assessed against your social welfare payment you do not have to contribute €30. If the non-dependent household members are a couple their contribution is €40.
A couple over 65 with an income equal to or less than the State Pension (Contributory) for their situation will contribute €40 a week towards their rent. A couple who both have State Pensions (Contributory) and no other income will also contribute €40 towards their weekly rent.
Calculating your Rent Supplement can be difficult. The Department of Social Protection's representative (formerly known as the Community Welfare Officer) will decide if you are eligible for Rent Supplement and calculate the amount you will get. More information is available on how to calculate Rent Supplement.
Rent Supplement is paid to you weekly or monthly by cheque, Electronic Fund Transfer or post draft, usually in arrears.
The amount of Rent Supplement that is calculated will generally ensure that your income, after paying rent, does not fall below a minimum level. This level is the basic Supplementary Welfare Allowance rate for your circumstances minus €30 (or €40 for a couple). You must always pay at least €30 towards your rent. However, you may pay more depending on your means - see 'Rules' above.
The rent paid to your landlord (that is, your contribution plus your Rent Supplement) should not be above the maximum rent limit set for your county or area (this provision can be waived in some circumstances). The maximum rent limit for your county is set by the Department of Social Protection (DSP). However, the Community Welfare Office may set lower rates within these limits. There is a maximum rent limit for each area (see below). If your actual rent is higher than the local maximum, you may be refused Rent Supplement entirely.
In some cases Rent Supplement can be paid at the discretion of the DSP staff administering the scheme where the rent is over the relevant limit:
If, when your Rent Supplement claim is reviewed, the rent you pay is above the relevant limit and your lease is not due for renewal, you will be expected to re-negotiate your rent with your landlord. If the landlord insists that the terms of the current lease are not negotiable and does not reduce the rent to the new limits the DSP representative will discuss your options with you. These may include seeking other accommodation. If the rent is in line with local market rates the limits can be exceeded in some cases.
These are the maximum rent limits from 17 June 2013 (lower rates can be set for areas within each county).
County | Single person in shared accommodation | Couple in shared accommodation | Single person | Couple with no qualified children | Couple with 1 qualified child or one-parent with 1 qualified child | Couple with 2 qualified children or one-parent with 2 qualified children | Couple with 3 qualified children or one-parent with 3 qualified children |

* These limits apply to the towns of Bray, Delgany and Greystones only. All other areas in Wicklow are subject to the Wicklow limits.

SI 221/07 sets down that the maximum amounts of Rent Supplement payable for tenants in voluntary housing developments (funded through the Capital Assistance Scheme) are €55 for a single person and €60 for a couple. The minimum contribution set out above also applies (€30 for a single person and €40 for a couple).
To apply, fill in an application form for Rent Supplement (pdf). The Department of Social Protection's representative (formerly known as the Community Welfare Officer) or local Citizens Information Service can help you fill in this form.
Part of the form will need to be filled in by your landlord or their agent. Your landlord will need to provide their tax reference number (normally their PPS number) to the Department of Social Protection (DSP). If your landlord does not wish to fill in the form a separate form (SWA 3C) (pdf) is available. If your landlord does not have a tax reference number, they should state this in writing to the DSP and explain why this is the case. Your Rent Supplement may not be paid if your landlord has not given their tax number to the DSP or has not explained why they do not have one.
Another part of the form may need to be filled in by your local authority, to confirm you are on their housing list and have a housing need (if you are not exempt from this rule).
You also need to bring the following documents:
The Department of Social Protection's representative (formerly known as the Community Welfare Officer) usually visits you to confirm your circumstances.
If you are not satisfied with a decision made in relation to Rent Supplement, you should first find out why the decision was made by asking the Department of Social Protection's representative (formerly known as the Community Welfare Officer). You should provide any extra documentation to back up your case.
If the decision is not changed, then request an appeal form. Include as much detail as possible in your appeal and keep photocopies of everything.
If your appeal is unsuccessful, you can refer the appeal to the Social Welfare Appeals Office. You may request a personal hearing and you can bring along a representative to help argue your case.
To apply for Rent Supplement you should contact the Department of Social Protection's representative (formerly known as the Community Welfare Officer) at your local health centre. However in some areas new Rent Supplement applications are processed by centralised Rent Units. To see if your area is dealt with by a central Rent Unit you can view the central rent unit list.
If you live in one of these areas you can get a rent pack from your local health centre. This pack contains detailed information (including a list of documentation you will need) and all the relevant application forms. You should read the information in the pack carefully. If you are satisfied that you have all the necessary documents ready you can forward your application to the relevant Rent Unit. The processing of your application may be delayed if you do not supply all the information requested in the pack. The Unit will contact you if they need any further information. If they do not need any more information they will tell you when your application will be processed.
A certain amount of your income is not taken into account in the assessment for Rent Supplement. The income not taken into account is called an income disregard. The current income disregards came into effect on 5 June 2007.
All existing Rent Supplement claims in payment on 5 June 2007 were reviewed and assessed using both the current income disregards and the old income disregards. If you would get more Rent Supplement using the old income disregards (see below), you continued to be assessed using the old income disregards until:
If you have a question relating to this topic you can contact the Citizens Information Phone Service on 0761 07 4000 (Monday to Friday, 9am to 8pm) or you can visit your local Citizens Information Centre.

- the story
These Boots Were Made for Framing.
Obsession manifests itself in various ways. For James Gulliver Hancock, it takes the form of a virtual road trip across the United States, where the artist happily examines, characterizes and delights in the quirkiest qualities of a particular locale. The Australian-born artist represents prominent cities from coast to coast by drawing an object that he felt typified a city or state and pulled his attention in each place.
Even a city slicker won't be able to resist this print. James personifies the Lone Star State with an overlapping parade of cow-boots, of all sizes, shapes and patterns. A fun way to relive a trip or to spur the memory your old stomping grounds, this hand-pulled one-color silkscreen on RFK Rives paper brings the spirit of Texas to your very own home. Handmade in Brooklyn.

Q and A with Charlie Taylor, author of 'Divas and Doorslammers - The Guide to better behaved teenagers'
(66 Posts)Untidy? monosyllabic? endless arguments; communication by grunt; Seismic sulking; Lives ruled by FOMO (fear of missing out). Sound like your teenager?
Behavioural expert Charlie Taylor is joining us this week to answer your questions on unruly teenagers. His book Divas and Doorslammers is a practical handbook which is full of simple, effective techniques for improving your teenager's behaviour.
Charlie Taylor has been a behavioural specialist for over 10 years. He has taught every age group, from nursery to 16-year-olds, working in tough inner city primary and comprehensive schools. He is currently the head teacher of a special school for children with behavioural, emotional and social difficulties in West London. He also works as a freelance behaviour consultant, coaching teachers in behaviour management techniques, and holds regular workshops for parents. He lives in London and is married with 3 immaculately behaved children.
Send your questions to Charlie on this thread by the end of the day next Monday 20th September and we'll be posting his answers by the end of the week.
Would you be at all interested in borrowing my almost 13-yr-old son and returning him to me when he is a more civilised creature??
I just don't even know where to start....
I dream of monosyllabic . DSS1 cannot stop talking/screaming like a banshee/crying - he has to make a noise and to draw all attention to himself, even when he has absolutely nothing that interests anyone else to say.
I'd like to know how to re-teach 13yo DD1 some basic rules of courtesy and politeness.
She drives me insane, eg pushing past people instead of letting them pass (eg on the stairs, onto a bus), not looking at someone who is talking to her, not greeting people properly. These are all things she once knew how to do...
how do I get 16 year old ds to do things like .....his washing, emptying the dishwasher and taking out the rubbish (he gets paid an allowance to do these things) without having to ask a gazillion times, ending in an argument?
what happened to the lovely little boy who always used to turn and wave to me when he was walking off to school in the morning, he's been replaced by this grumpy, moody, sulky person, who doesn't seem to like me very much and thinks I'm mean and unreasonable.
I get occasional glimpses of this funny, lovely bloke, but they are rare and when he's talking to his friends he's a totally different person than who he is with me.
I suppose it could be worse, he doesn't smoke, drink, there is no girlfriend on the scene (although sometimes I think if he had a girlfriend he might be happier) and he loves college and is very focused on the course he is doing and wants to do well so he can go to university.
I tell him I love him and he responds, but I find myself really missing my little boy on times
Why do teens seem to accept a squalid lifestyle?
The things I fall out about with my 15 year old son is tidiness and cleanliness. I am a constant nag when it comes to him keeping his bedroom tidy. He is quite happy to have rotting food, smelly socks on the floor and every available surface covered with games and dvds.
He is getting better at showering but seems incapable of hanging up towels, putting toiletries away and the bath mat appears to be for decoration only.
castille - yy, us too!
I felt I was actually rather good with toddlers. Teens, however, I am all at sea. I am terrified to think what lies ahead, given he is not 13 for a few months and we are going through scary hormones. He is constantly tearful and surly, and of course Knows It All.
How do you approach "encouraging" a teenager with college work?
DD is 16 and just started A levels.
She didnt do as well in GSCEs as she should have done. She only worked hard during the run up to exams, during rest of year, she had a very laid back approach. [thought by teachers as well as me]
She really wants to go to a uni but I know if she doesnt step up a few gears, this wont happen.
Any attempt to ask about work is met with a grunt!!
Should I back off and just let her get on with it, even if it probably means she wont work to full potential??
and dh would like to know "why don't their arms work?"
How can I bring up three teenagers the same way
1. angelic
ooh hooray
a proper expert! sounds great.
Id like to ask what cHarlie thinks of the HOw to talk " book.
i use it as a parent and teacher ( of generally compliant kids)
My dd is great. I feel it is the calm before the storm perhaps.
Her room is unspeakable though, if I leave her to it. I tell her to tidy it up, then I go in and inspect it, and have the point out the empty crips packets on the floor, the random socks, the spoons hidden down the back of the headboard.
If I left her to her own devices she would live like the Young Ones.
Also, her lip curls whenever I venture an opinion on music, fashion, make up, hair, anything. I am automatically judged as an old fart and past it.
Imo though teens are FAR more fun and enjoyable to have around than toddlers or young children. And she is a lot better now than when she was a tweenie and into High School Musical.
I'm a while off having teenagers but wanted to say - Charlie, I love you. In our house the "you're turning into a lizard" line has had made the family a better thing to live with.
The new book is on the shelf for when I need it. I've bought about 10 copies of the last book for all my friends - it's amazing!
Right - I sound like a stalker so I'd better leave my creeping there!
PS Can you come back to do a Q & A on Divas and dictators please - could do with a few more coping methods when the lizard has arrived!
"He lives in London and is married with 3 immaculately behaved children."
Message withdrawn at poster's request.
foofi, that is a joke, i believe.
Looks like a book to add to my Amazon wish list!
My dd (15) has just turned to the dark side and I'm struggling to readjust and remind myself to zip it so I don't react and provoke further rudeness/I know best responses/sulks/silences/retorts/tears/etc (delete as appropriate).
My current problem is how not to react to her "boot face" which is becoming an increasingly familiar reaction when she doesn't like what I'm saying.
It drives me mad!!
And then of course when I ask "why the face"? (I know I know I shouldn't rise to the bait), then there's further "nothings" or raised eyebrows to contend with.
But in all seriousness, if I have said no to a request which is unreasonable and explained why (e.g. sorry I cant take you to X event because as you know I am babysitting for your cousins), HOW do I then cope with the inevitable sulks that will ensue (without then winding myself up at her behaviour).
My husband tells me not to take it all so personally, but the problem is that I do!
I want my lovely girl back!
How do you deal with a teenager (DSS1, 15), of whom quite different standards of behaviour are expected in his two homes?
His mother sees him very little and does everything he wishes when she is with him and gives him the run of the apartment (with his younger brother), and makes zero demands.
When he is with us there are five rather than two or three people in a smaller apartment and he has a lot of homework etc to do (because it doesn't get done at his mother's) and we don't spend every evening out in restaurants and all weekend shopping.
He is currently seeing everything in black and white: his father is super demanding (actually, he isn't) and his mother is perfect in every way. DSS1 is wildly unhappy and thinks it grossly unfair that we don't give him the lifestyle his mother does. She will never change. What do we do?
I have a 16 year old dd and then I had a gap of ten years, before having dd2 (6) and ds(5).
Sometimes they get on really well but at other times they fight and squabble like normal siblings, but how can I get dd1 to realise that the level of violence that she sometimes inflicts on her younger sibs is absolutely not appropriate. If they were similar in age/size/weight etc it would be normal siblings having a bit of a spat, but she is SO much bigger (she's a big girl, taller and broader than me) that she is in danger of doing them some real damage.
And then when I tell her off for hurting them she feels that I've taken their side in whatever argument they've been having. I have tried explaining that I'm not taking their side, but she CANNOT behave that way and get away with it, but she still feels quite put out that I prefer them to her (not true of course)
thank you.
As your child gets older, you try to transfer control from parent to child - the idea being that the child will gradually take over the reponsibility for decision making etc. If you don't do this you become an over-controlling parent.
But what do you do if your child doesn't respond positively to this - so if you let them out, they consistently break curfew, if you stop checking homework, they stop doing it.
What do you do when every single thing they do breaks rules? You can't punish them all day every day.
(I'm just trying to work out where I went wrong - it's too late for ds1, but I'm trying to deal with ds2 who is 12 and is beginning to pull away). How can I relax a bit when his older brother was a truanting drug user at the age of 13 . I was told I was too strict with him, but every time I gave him a bit of freedom he abused it.
Oh, one more - is there anywhere in the UK or Ireland to send a 16 year old who hasn't been in school for two years, suffers from depression, has a diagnosis of Asperger's Syndrome, is currently addicted to cannabis (and possibly more) and hasn't spoken to me for two years because it's all my fault?
I don't really expect an answer to that one .

Congratulations and a huge thank you to JDRF supporters Steve Stanaway and Brad Lincoln for conquering Aconcagua, the highest peak on earth outside of the Himalayas. They have raised over £20,000, which will be split equally between JDRF and Awyr Las, the charity for better healthcare in North Wales.
