This was the third UN conference against racism in the past 30 years, and despite all the talk and an official "Decade to Combat Racism," for many young peoplefrom Panama to Indonesia to Nigeriaracism and the poverty that accompanies it have only gotten worse. "They keep wanting to know what to do about us," said Danielle Garcia, a 13-year-old with WILD for Human Rights, "but when we tell them, they don't want to listen."
Change may take confrontation. What young people did so well at the conferenceand what they have always doneis to interrupt talk and demand action. Some of the loudest applause at the summit came when two young delegates directly confronted Commissioner Robinson. At the closing session, Manar Farrg, a 15-year-old Palestinian girl from the Dheisheh Refugee Camp, walked up to Robinson and demanded, nicely, that Robinson say something about Palestine. Later Farrg said, "I used to think the refugee camp was Palestine and Palestine was the world. Then I went to visit my village. And my village said to me, 'I want you. I want all of you.' And so I knew I had to be the last generation to suffer and struggle."
"We can either be the next generation of leaders or the next generation of statistics," Naina Dhingra of the International Youth Leadership Council said. The youth at the summit can't afford to wait for the UN to make that decision for them. They will return to countries, including the U.S., where daily survival is a struggle and where taking a stand means risking their lives. The global youth network could be the beginning of a lifeline, as it continues to confront those in power by modeling the difference between talk and action.

Aren't they scam?
seofactor | Performer | 6/22/2010 - 1:06 pm
I can't say I've had any experience, but at glance I don't see anything that screams 'Scam!' There are plenty of articles that you can get for free to feel them out for a while. And, in a business like ours (Internet marketing) the yearly price they are charging is really low if indeed you get access to quality data (white papers, etc.). That stuff is pretty invaluable if you're in this business. So I guess it all depends on what you do and why you would need such information. For example, we pay quite a bit of money to Marketing Sherpa. It helps us to see the industry as a whole and how businesses are spending their marketing money. This helps us to create content for our online readers (blog posts), enhance our services to fit the needs of businesses in our market (like whether they are more proned to spending money in SEO vs. PPC, and how much), etc. We pay WAY more than $297 a year, and it's worth every penny. I think I'll take a closer look at Marketing Profs though, just to see what they have.

More than 400 federal managers and contractors are meeting in Philadelphia for the annual Management of Change Conference. It's a short one, only a day and a half, but it's packed with discussions on the latest topics, such as information sharing, social media and the insourcing-outsourcing debate. Tom Temin is there and gave us a preview of what we can expect.

Tool Makers in the United States are largely men, earning an average of $20.99 per hour. Most Tool Makers like their work and job satisfaction is high. Medical benefits are awarded to a large number, and more than half earn dental coverage.

Tool makers may perform a variety of duties depending on their position and employer. Some tool maker positions involve only stamping out tools with machine, while others include working with design software and 3D modeling to come up with solutions to solve technical problems (such as components for aircraft and other vehicles). The ability to read blueprints and create tools is essential for this job. Some positions require working on a team to provide input for new products that will improve the company or field operations. Another part of the job is repairing tools and troubleshooting current tools if they are not working well.Read More...
The tool maker may be presented with a budget and have to purchase supplies and design effective tools within this budget. The tool maker also carries out tests when the tools are produced to make sure that they can withstand their intended use. A tool maker should keep up with the latest developments in the field in order to have an edge over the competition in improving current operations.
Training and education in tool making may be necessary for these positions, along with experience in the field. Math skills are important, as the tool maker performs calculations for accurate tool measurements, fits, and reactions to temperatures. For positions with fewer duties, specific education and experience may not be required; however, for more advanced positions, a postsecondary degree and technical schooling may be needed.
Survey takers who work as Tool Makers typically report just a few professional skills. CNC/NC and Precision Machining are considered valuable skills and can increase employee pay by 10 percent and 6 percent, respectively. Competency in CNC/NC frequently indicates knowledge of Precision Machining.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
For Tool Makers, level of experience appears to be a somewhat less important part of the salary calculation — more experience does not correlate to noticeably higher pay. Those who have worked for fewer than five years take home a median salary of $38K, and workers with five to 10 years of experience earn a higher $43K on average. Tool Makers claiming one to two decades of experience make an estimated median of $48K. Veterans who have acquired more than 20 years report a median income of $54K, which is generally higher than the pay reported by other tenure groups.

The coming days and weeks are going to be crammed full of news, and we are excited to share the first few items of that today. Firstly, we have just released a brand new, much more polished launcher. We hope this will be the final time we have to update it, but either way we are very happy with how the new version has turned out. Everyone will be able to update automatically via patch, so no need to worry about re-downloading the game. To note, some users may need to download the latest version of C++ redistributable.
To make that easier, we have included a download link in our forum thread for the new launcher, found here:Playedgeofspace.com
We would also like to let everyone know that time is quickly running out now for the pre-order prices and offers. Be sure to get in and get the game now to still be entitled to a Steam key when we launch on Early Access!
Once we are selling on Steam, copies purchased on Desura or RainDG will no longer come with a Steam key.Since launch on EA is looming closer, we will be releasing details soon for how to obtain and redeem Steam keys for all of our pre-order and Kickstarter customers. We know everyone is plenty anxious to start playing through Steam, and we are so excited to be getting so close! It still feels so surreal to the team, watching all of the work we've done over the last year come to this point.Keep an eye on the forums and community, there is plenty more news on the horizon! Stay awesome, ArkCo Operatives, and we'll see you next time for ArkCo News!
I gotta ask one more thing: Is this game controller enabled ? I find platformers a bit hard to play on mouse+KB sadly. Btw, I have a 360 controller.
You heard it from the engineer, we plan on making it controller enabled, we are just waiting till farther in development to do so.
We do plan on having 360 controller support, but only 360 controllers because they are very easy to setup, just havent gotten around to binding all of the buttons as that is pretty low priority :)
Right now in the beta, it isn't controller enabled. Down the road, when we start tackling keybinding and things of that sort its definitely something that people want and that we are likely to support.
At First glance, it seems a lot like futuristic Terraria with original and alien biomes, which can be good and bad at the same time. I'm practically sold for the 8 Euro copy, but I must ask some questions first :
1. How many "strange" biomes would we encounter? (The description says there is only one world).
2. What are the mechanics you're going to focus on? Exploration? Building? Fighting? Lots of monsters or items?
I'm not sure what to think and I'm sorry if the comment might be offensive to anyone (Is it?)
Answers would be nice :) thanks
Oh and I'm going to vote for you on greenlight, but it would be awesome if you could make those keys for steam work if I buy it here
Also, I don't find your post offensive, you just wanna know some facts about the game since it is still under development. Thank you for taking interest!
1: Not including special micro biomes, currently there are 5 major biomes. (We plan to add more in the future but want to keep focused as a very small team)
2: This is a harder question as some of it is intrinsic to the genre but there can be more leaning. The game will have a more (man/woman) vs Nature feel. Especially since your first MEGA goal of the game is to terriform/biostabialize the entire world.
3: We are working on the logistics about steam keys. There is always hidden red tape to deal with and it is under major discussion.
If you get the game, please come out and hang in the IRC and take part in the community. We want to be a community driven experience and we listen a lot. At the moment I'm still recovering from a pretty nasty flu, but normally I hang out int he IRC a lot. Hope I helped answer some of your questions.
Yes you answered some of your questions and the topic I favourited on steam greenlight answered my other questions, so yeah even if I'm pretty shy I'll try to show myself on IRC and forums just to play with someone, make a team and I definitely like the feel you are trying to create :) and thank you for your time answering!
Now I just wonder how much time would it be for steam to acknowledge this piece of jewel, I might wait to buy it until it pops on steam to avoid the matter of cd keys (I like to have all my games on steam), any idea of the ETA? If it takes too long I just buy it on Desura and the hell with it xD
Go forth and bring forth more greenlight votes. We are in the top 40, so the more votes we get the more votes we get the faster we can get set up to get in the future game pulls
Steam doesn't give any kind of ETA, its just whenever they feel it's gotten enough attention. As for keys, regardless of where you purchase it, you are given the same launcher, and the game still downloads from Arkdrop.com. Multiplayer play won't be inhibited in any way regardless of where the game is purchased. It works very much like MC, and all games are player hosted. :)
Aha, thank you for your answers ^^
Highest Rated (18 agree) 10/10
Edge of Space is already a fantastic game, and getting better every day. The amount of progress since Day 1 beta back in June is absolutely staggering, and I can't wait to watch it get even better

Not really impressed by this so far, I think I might stick with starbound when it comes out soon, since the developers are already almost going to release it soon! This game wasn't much of a bang for your buck and wish I didn't spend the money.

Pune: The Rajiv Gandhi Zoological park in Katraj is not only a famous tourist attraction, but offers a learning experience for environment lovers. Over the past six months, the park has hosted over 25 workshops on wild life conservation and environmental awareness.
The workshops, held by authorities on every fourth Monday and Tuesday of each month, saw participation from school children, foreigners and students learning veterinary science. "As a part of the environmental awareness initiative, we also conduct an annual three-day summer camp every year. Children are shown presentations and puppet shows based on issues such as environment degradation," said Ashwini Yadav, an official from Rajiv Gandhi Zoological park.
The officials introduce the participants to the zoo and explain to them about the animals, their nature, diet, and habits. Children are encouraged to observe wild animals and the plant varieties in the zoo. "Children tend to have misconceptions about wildlife, especially reptiles and birds. But we explain the various characteristics of these animals to them so that they are aware of the facts." Yadav added. The zoo also offers animal adoption schemes wherein organisations such as schools and offices, can adopt a wild animal and provide for their stay in the zoo.

WebMage put down what the issue was, explicitly calling out your OnLoadCompleted function inserting a newline when it shouldn't in one of the statements. Specifically, where you are defining "var params = …". The "kongregate" object is changed into a "kong", then a "regate", causing a syntax error that makes onLoadComplete() invalid and unusable. Thus, the loadAPI() call fails, the kongregate object itself is never instantiated (it is made within onLoadComplete), and people can't log in.

New Report Finds 10 Early Lessons Learned From the H1N1 Outbreak
"H1N1 is a real-world test of our initial emergency response capabilities — all of the planning and preparations have paid off. The country is significantly ahead of where we were a few years ago," said
The Pandemic Flu: Lessons from the Frontlines report reviews 10 early lessons learned from the response to the H1N1 (swine) flu outbreak, 10 ongoing core vulnerabilities in U.S. pandemic flu preparedness, and case studies of challenges communities around the country faced when responding to the outbreak. The 10 early lessons learned from the 2009 H1N1 outbreak in the report were that:
- Investments in pandemic planning and stockpiling antiviral medications paid off;
- Public health departments did not have enough resources to carry out plans;
- Response plans must be adaptable and science-driven;
- Providing clear, straightforward information to the public was essential for allaying fears and building trust;
- School closings have major ramifications for students, parents and employers;
- Sick leave and policies for limiting mass gatherings were also problematic;
- Even with a mild outbreak, the health care delivery system was overwhelmed;
- Communication between the public health system and health providers was not well coordinated;
- WHO pandemic alert phases caused confusion; and
- International coordination was more complicated than expected.
"Its critical to understand what worked as planned in the H1N1 response, as well as to look at what needs to be strengthened, fixed, or better funded. This report is a contribution to that effort," said
The report also identified some surprises encountered during the H1N1 outbreak, including that much of the world's pandemic planning had revolved around the potential threat of the H5N1 (bird) flu virus, which had been circulating in
In addition, according to the analysis in Pandemic Flu: Lessons from the Frontlines, there are a number of systemic gaps in the nation's ability to respond to a pandemic flu outbreak. To further strengthen U.S. preparedness, the following 10 core areas must be addressed:
- Maintaining the Strategic National Stockpile– making sure enough antiviral medications, vaccinations, and equipment are available to protect Americans, which includes replenishing the stockpile when medications and supplies are used;
- Vaccine development and production– enhancing the biomedical research and development abilities of
the United Statesto rapidly develop and produce a vaccine;
- Vaccinating all Americans — ensuring that all Americans would be able to be inoculated in a short period of time;
- Planning and Coordination – improving coordination among federal, state, and local governments and the private sector preparedness and planning activities on an ongoing basis, including taking into account how the nature of flu threats change over time;
- School closings, sick leave, and community mitigation strategies – improving strategies to limit the spread of disease ensuring all working Americans have sick leave benefits and that communities are prepared to limit public gatherings and close schools as necessary;
- Global coordination – building trust, technologies, and policies internationally to encourage science-based, consistent decision making across borders during an outbreak;
- Resources – providing enough funding for the on-the-ground response, which is currently under funded and overextended;
- Workforce – stopping layoffs at state and local health departments and recruiting the next generation of public health professionals;
- Surge capacity – improving the ability for health providers to manage a massive influx of patients; and
- Caring for the uninsured and underinsured — ensuring that all Americans will receive care during an emergency, which limits the spread of the contagious disease to others, and making sure hospitals and health care providers are compensated for providing care.
The full analysis is available on TFAH's Web site at www.healthyamericans.org. The report was supported by a grant from RWJF.

Ex-NY comptroller Hevesi gets 1-4 years in prison
A former Queens College professor with a doctorate in political science from Columbia University, Hevesi won an Assembly seat in 1971. During 22 years in the chamber, he gained a reputation as an impressive debater, wrote more than 100 laws and was known for his work on health care.
Hevesi won the New York City comptroller's job in 1993, came up short in a 2001 bid for the Democratic nomination for mayor and took the statewide comptroller's election the next year.
As he ran for re-election in 2006, the state ethics commission found he had violated the law by using a staffer as a driver for his seriously ill wife for three years and not paying for it until after his Republican opponent raised the issue.
Hevesi was re-elected by a wide margin. But about six weeks later, he pleaded guilty to defrauding the government and resigned. He paid a $5,000 fine but wasn't sentenced to any time behind bars.
Over the next four years, Cuomo's investigation showed that pension fund officials and cronies got fees and favors from financiers seeking chunks of the fund to manage.
The retirement pool for state employees, plus local government workers outside New York City, is one of the nation's largest government pension funds and therefore a magnet for money managers. As comptroller, Hevesi was the fund's sole trustee.
"In the beginning, skeptics said it was business as usual, not a crime," Cuomo, now governor, said in a statement Friday.
But in the end, eight people have pleaded guilty. More than 20 other people and financial firms have agreed to pay a combined $170 million in civil penalties.
The probe swept up a roster of players in politics and finance, drawing guilty pleas from figures including the former head of New York's defunct Liberal Party and civil fines from people including former "car czar" Steven Rattner, the financier who helped lead the Obama administration's bailout and restructuring of Chrysler and General Motors.
In the wake of the investigation, current Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli made changes including eliminating the use of middlemen paid to help investment firms court pension fund business.
The only other person sentenced so far in the pension fund probe, former Hevesi political adviser Henry "Hank" Morris, is serving 16 months to four years in prison.
Plenty of powerful and promising figures in New York politics have seen their careers end in scandal.
Gov. Eliot Spitzer, a Democrat, resigned in 2008 after he was named as a client of a high-priced prostitution ring; he was never charged with any crime. Former Republican state Senate Majority Leader Joseph Bruno was convicted of a federal charge of using his public position to enrich himself; he is appealing.
About a dozen other elected and appointed state officials have been convicted or accused of crimes in the past two years.

Time and Labor Management Solutions for Retailers
Retail is all about supply and demand. That applies to more than stock…it applies to your workforce, too. You need to ensure that when customers are in the house, employees are there to serve them.
EPAY BlueforceTM system can help you maximize employee scheduling and make real-time changes as needed. It offers solutions to two chronic industry challenges: overtime costs and buddy punching, as known as time theft. In addition, it will help you:
Cut Costs – These days, people are careful about where they'll spend their disposable income, which means business is more competitive than ever. With Blueforce, you can expect to reduce labor costs by 5% or more, so you can keep prices down and service up, while still boosting your profits.
Stay in Compliance – Our system factors in labor laws and union rules and flags potential conflicts, so you can nip compliance issues in the bud.
Stay in Control – Blueforce does more than manage time and attendance. Its valuable workforce management tools–like labor budgeting and scheduling software–can help run your business more efficiently.
Highlights for You
- Smart, biometric time clocks – Our biometric WalTerTM time clocks eliminate time theft, a historic problem in retail. And when time clocks aren't an option, employees can punch in via telephone, computer, or cellphone. We even offer a mobile app with GPS verification.
- Real-time alerts – You can't afford tardy or absent employees. Our real-time alerts, delivered by text or email, keep managers abreast of no-shows, so you can fill any gaps ASAP.
- Limit Overtime – We can issue real-time alerts for overtime, too. Our scheduling program makes it so easy to avoid, OT may become a thing of the past.
- Complex pay rules – No matter how many shifts you run or how many union contracts you're juggling, our flexible system makes it easy to keep track of it all.
- Employee qualifications match – Our scheduling program lets you match employee qualifications to job requirements, ensuring properly qualified workers are where they're needed.
- Seasonal labor? No problem! – With EPAY, you pay only for active employees each month, so costs are always scaled to your current, active workforce.
- No IT support needed – Blueforce can be implemented easily across all sites without technical expertise on your end.
- Budget, schedule, plan, understand – Use our labor budgeting and employee scheduling programs to get the most from your workforce. Use our analytics and reports to understand your business better. You can easily allocate labor expenses to specific cost centers, ensuring labor resources track with customer demand.

My Windows 7 laptop overheated and I think is dead so I've had to revert to an old Windows Vista os laptop.
Whenever I click on a link through say an email etc it won't take me to the site. The new tab opens and then nothing else happens.
Help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Try setting IE as default browser. If links also not opening in IE then reset the browser. Tools -> internet options-> Advanced tab-> reset. You'll have to re enable your ad-ons. I would re-enable a few at a time in case of any problem ad-on.

Make sure your WLM 2011 is your default e-mail client if you use it.
Make sure your Internet Explorer has all its defaults.
Start button -> Default Programs -> Set Your Default programs -> left column, click Internet Explorer. Does it say " This program has all its defaults " ? If no, click Choose Defaults for this program > put a checkmark on all entries under the list > click Save.
Try another browser and see if OK on that. Do not make it the default.
I know what you mean " How I miss my windows 7".

If this works in Bangladesh, it will work everywhere
There could be several answers to that question. What comes to mind is the reliance that country has on foreign aid. It may sound harsh, but the more poverty the more foreign aid can be requested by the corrupt leadership in Haiti.
Another reason, an aquaponic waste water treatment facility would require an infrastructure investment for construction, operation, design and management. I also imagine a lab would be needed, staffed by chemists and bio techs for proper testing, to check for pathogens, monitor PH, ammonia, nitrates, nitrites and bacteria levels, etc.
There could a cultural resistance. In Europe during the mini ice age many people starved because they relied only on grains for food. Many refused to grow potatoes and other alternate crops because of superstitions and an inability to accept change.

Many county organizations will hold Thanksgiving events
Ventura County residents plan to celebrate Thanksgiving with a number of events, many of them free.
Some churches are opening their doors for non-denominational services while others are holding choir performances.
Senior centers and others are serving traditional turkey dinners.
Moose Lodge members in Santa Paula — and, for the first time, in Camarillo — will open their doors on Thursday to serve holiday meals to those with no place else to go.
"Back in the old days, the Thanksgiving dinner was open to the community but we didn't advertise it," said Santa Paula lodge member Ray Morua. "But we looked around last year and wondered where everybody was, so we're putting the word out that we will serve anybody a meal for free."
On a holiday meant for giving thanks and traditionally spent with a family or friends, many organizations realize that not everybody has someone to spend it with.
"Many times, homeless people have lost contact with family and friends," said Cassie Sorenson, director of the Lighthouse Women and Children's Mission in Oxnard.
"The staff and volunteers at the rescue mission willingly step in to provide the family elements that people on the streets are lacking."
Thursday events:
The Camarillo Moose Family Center will serve a traditional Thanksgiving meal from 2 to 5 p.m. for those who need a place to go.
The center, operated by the Loyal Order of Moose Lodge 2047, has never been open on Thanksgiving or Christmas before.
The center is at 341 Arneill Road, Suite A, in Camarillo. For more information, call 484-9118.
In Oxnard, the Lighthouse Women and Children's Mission will hold its annual Thanksgiving brunch for the needy from 10:30 a.m. to noon.
The free meal, consisting of a turkey burrito with an assortment of side dishes, is open to all in the community needing meal assistance.
The mission is at 104 N. Hayes St. For more information, call 385-7200.
In Santa Paula, Moose Lodge 2097 will serve a free Thanksgiving dinner from 2 to 5 p.m.
The lodge is at 700 Santa Barbara St. For more information, call 525-7617.
Wednesday events:
In Moorpark, the city's Active Adult Center will mark the holiday with a luncheon at 11:30 a.m.
It will feature a Thanksgiving meal of turkey, dressing, potatoes, cranberry sauce and pumpkin pie. Entertainment will be provided. Suggested donation for those 60 and older is $2.25; suggested donation for those younger than 60 is $5.
The center is at 799 Moorpark Ave. For reservations, call 517-6261.
In Simi Valley, the Simi Sunrise Rotary Club will serve its 17th annual traditional Thanksgiving dinner from 5 to 8 p.m. at the Simi Valley Senior Center, 3900 Avenida Simi.
The meal, free to all Simi Valley seniors and the homeless, will be accompanied by the Simi Valley High School string orchestra and a vocalist from the Simi Sunrise Rotary Club.
Guests should pick up free tickets for scheduled seating times at the Senior Center. For more information, call 583-6363.
In Thousand Oaks, the Sixth Annual Pre-Thanksgiving Ecumenical Concert will be held at St. Julie Billiart Church at 7 p.m.
The concert features 70 singers from St. Julie, King of Glory Lutheran Church of Newbury Park and St. Patrick's Episcopal Church of Thousand Oaks.
Admission is free. St. Julie is at 2475 Borchard Road in Newbury Park. For more information, call 498-3602.
Today's events:
In Santa Paula, the community's annual non-denominational Thanksgiving service will be held at 7 tonight at the Santa Paula Presbyterian Church.
Local clergy and lay leaders will participate along with the community choir and the church's hand-bell choir. A pie potluck will be held after the service.
Anyone desiring to sing in the community choir can join in at 6:15 for a brief rehearsal. The church is at 121 Davis St. For more information, call 525-3811.

You are correct, they do not stack. They did for a little while in the last month when they messed around with the way the console works. I just discovered today after posting that they removed the stacking bonus. Still, I suggest something like the assimilated console in the remaining science slot and use the engineering slots for hull armors and one EPS console. You really don't need anything else.

NFL News: Super Bowl winners Baltimore Ravens visit president Barack Obama at White House

Super Bowl winners Baltimore Ravens enjoyed the traditional reward of being hosted by the President at the White House - with Barack Obama enjoying plenty of jokes with the NFL champions.
Led by coach John Harbaugh, the Ravens were presented to President Obama at the White House - including the newly-retired Ray Lewis, who enjoyed an emotional send-off with their Super Bowl win over San Francisco.
Harbaugh and general manager Ozzie Newsome presented Obama with a Baltimore Ravens jersey and said that they hoped to be handing him another in 12 months' time.
"On behalf of all the Ravens, I want to thank Mr. President for hosting us here today. It's an unbelievable honour and we are grateful to be here," Harbaugh said. "And I want you to know we have plans to be back next year.
"This kind of experience makes you proud of your country and proud of your accomplishments. It was an incredible honour and makes you feel good that we have people like President Obama working for our country."
A jovial Obama had fun with the likes of Lewis, Ed Reed and Joe Flacco, firstly poking fun at Lewis' famous entrance and on-field dancing.
"I suspect that these guys are wondering, 'What kind of introduction is that?'" Obama said "No smoke machine? No fire cannons? Obama didn't even tear up chunks of turf and rub them on his suit?"
Obama paid tribute to quarterback Flacco's remarkable play-off performance, which earned him a whopping new contract and the Super Bowl MVP award.
"That capped off one of the greatest postseasons ever by a quarterback," Obama said. "More than 1,100 passing yards, 11 touchdowns, no interceptions. I don't know about you Joe, but I would say that qualifies as elite.
"Good timing with that contract. That was some good timing."
Obama shares a joke with Ed Reed
Veteran safety Reed, who has since left Baltimore to join the Houston Texans, also came in for some presidential joshing as Obama pointed out his greying hair.
"The man's getting some gray hair though," Obama said. "I'm not the only one. You're like an old man, I'm telling you. That makes me feel better."
Not that Read took offence though: "It was awesome - really awesome," Reed said. "I saw it coming because he was staring at my hair before he picked on me.
"I was like, 'I hope he don't say nothing.' He knows where those gray hairs come from with this job here. That's the job of a safety and the president is the ultimate safety."
Notable absentees from the ceremony include wide receiver Anquan Boldin, who opted to remain with his new team - the 49ers - who Baltimore beat to win the Super Bowl.
Safety Bernard Pollard, now with the Titans, did not want to go after being cut by the champions, while Paul Kruger was also with his new team Cleveland and retired centre Matt Birk chose not to attend for personal reasons.

Well it is me, and I'm sure many others as well, up and down the country.
It seems like forever when here in 'sunny' Cornwall we managed a complete summer's day and it's starting to get depressing. But then my woes are but nothing compared to the poor souls who suffered the atrocious flooding recently. I hope the flood waters never ever reach them again.
Whilst on the subject of excess water, can anyone tell me why the raised rain gutter on car roofs was designed out of their construction? My old Honda, I noted at the time of purchase in 1991, was built about the time that all cars were losing their guttering and opening the car door for access in pouring rain was a new, very wet experience if one didn't move rather quickly!
My poor wife came back this morning and, together with the car door's interior got a right old soaking before I could get to her in time. The car does indeed have slightly recessed rain channels but are next to useless if it is driven with the window slightly open. Braking or changing direction usually sends a shower of roof water cascading over and inside the glass. (yes I know, just change the car I hear you say! :o) Not quite yet I'm afraid.
I'm not sure if this is the case, but I'm sure a recently made American film had cars with gutters, so why not us? I had heard some time ago that their removal was because of better aerodynamics and to cut down on wind noise.
Well. that's got that off my chest, so now I patiently await any responses from our learned members. TC. :)

It just wouldn't be British if we didn't complain about the weather, however I can see from the posters that it can easily be solved if we all moved into another members house for the duration of the monsoon season.
HB should pack up to Cumbria, Chegs to Scotland etc, etc...
But today I'm OK where I am in South Yorks, it's sunny spells with only a few heavy showers forecast that spider9's splendid rain apparel should deal with easily!

Yes, it has been raining here, on South Coast, continuously over the last 30+ hours.
However, BT Broadband has just brightened my day, yes - I did say BT Broadband! A couple of days ago I had an email from BT offering me a Free upgrade to my BT Infinity, as it was Free I accepted the offer, I have just done a check and my Broadband speed has shot up to 60.31Mbps Down and 12.62 Up.

Paper that considers how the Common Weal can connect to children and young people's concepts of social justice. It considers children and young people's experiences, in light of the Christie Commission's call for public service provision to confront inequalities.
The paper poses questions about the extent to which children and young people will be involved in, and be able to define, the Common Weal.
Report that lays bare the impact of austerity on services provided by the community and voluntary sector and on the workers for whom providing a service is not just a job, but part of a deep personal commitment to the people they support.
It is a wake-up call for politicians and society at large that workers in the community sector are approaching crisis point, and it is time to take notice.
Peer review academic journal aiming to promote comparative research on probation and community justice across Europe.
An update on 'Turning the Tide: A vision paper for multiple needs and exclusions' following the launch of the government's Social Justice Strategy.
This document was developed because of a shared concern that across the country a small group of individuals live chaotic lives and face poor life chances, as a result of multiple needs and ineffective contact with services.
A CSJ report ahead of the Government's White Paper on social care.
The all-party group was formed to discuss and promote the cause of social mobility; to raise issues of concern and help inform policy makers and opinion formers.
Its particular focus is on understanding what social mobility is, and what has/does/could impact it - both in policy terms and in more informal, cultural ways.
E-pamphlet to stimulate debate within the voluntary and community sector about the Big Society and its potential for delivering greater social justice and reducing poverty.
It is made up of six contributions which emerged from a roundtable discussion with some 16 organisations, organised by NPI in November 2011, with various community groups and grantmaking charities.
Report that looks at the scale of the challenge of transforming lives in terms of social justice, including supporting families, keeping young people on track, supporting the most disadvantaged adults, and how to deliver social justice.
Mental health is an issue that the Centre for Social Justice (CSJ) has considered in many of its previous reports, particularly those relating to family breakdown, criminal justice (courts and sentencing and prison reform), children in care and street gangs. Its work focusing on the poorest communities has highlighted time and again the extremely high prevalence of mental ill-health and the compounding effect that it has on people and families already battling to live amongst challenging circumstances.
Report which is a collaborative project, produced by church action on Poverty, Oxfam, IPPR North and urban forum, following discussions at a working seminar on 2 March 2011.

I disconnected the power shut off water supply. I then removed the drain hoses and water supply to the old pump. I removed the ground wire and the mounting rod to the old pump. Once removed, I followed the easy illustrated diagrams and instructions that came with the replacement pump.I mounted the new pump using the supplied hardware and reconnected suply line and drain hose. I turned water supply and power back on. Ran a test cycle before reinserting under countertop. Amazingly quiet and no leaks. Repair a success.I would use this service again if needed for additonal home appliances. Thank youMr. Buddy King

A great way to keep your teas fresh and tasty, while showing off your personal taste!
Measure the height of the tin from the bottom of the lid. You want to make sure the lid will still fit after you are finished decorating, after all!
Indicate the lid position using a fine-point permanent marker (unless your tin has an existing guide).
I found some great tins on clearance at a local craft store, which is what gave me the idea. You can also re-use Twinings tins or other airtight canisters.
Gather your decorative papers. You can use scrapbooking papers, Loteria tablas (as I did), junk mail, catalogs or just about anything flexible enough to glue to a tin!
Trim your papers to fit within the measurements you took.
Spread glue** evenly over the surface to be covered. DO NOT spread glue over the lid-line. If you are using an industrial glue, you will need to work quickly and in a ventilated space (you twisted little glue-sniffer).
**Choose a glue to match your materials. For metal tins, use an industrial glue like E6000 or Liquid Nails. If you have a foil-lined paper canister (like a cocoa container), you can use a tacky white glue or my new personal fave, YES! paste.
Apply your pretty papers and let your glue dry.
Don't forget to decorate your lid!
TIP: I chose to sand off the existing finish and paint the sides of my lid in a color that I matched to one of my papers. You could also use spray paint, tiny scraps of paper or a thin paper that would easily wrap from the top to the sides.
VARNISH it baby! You want to protect your work, don't ya?
There are a plethora of varnishes from which to choose, so pick your favorite whether it be gloss, satin or matte.
Wipe off any varnish that creeps up over the lid-line. Ensure that the varnish is not just dry, but allow plenty of time for it to cure before using.
Now go rock your Earl Grey, baby!
Viva la loteria!
YAY Cran! Be sure to link back with a "Your Version" OK?? I'm excited to see what you do!
i'm gonna do this
Very pretty!
I love the idea:) Thanks for sharing:)
this is cool:) i love la loteria too!!!

When Yusuf Pathan hit Lasith Malinga for four in the 19th over, Mumbai Indians' fate was sealed. They were finally out of IPL-7 for all practical purposes, four matches before the league round ends.
Finally out, because ever since the defending champions lost five straight games in the UAE, Mumbai were always close to being eliminated. To qualify for the playoffs, Mumbai needed to win at least 8 of their remaining 9 games, a tall order considering the way they performed in the tournament.
For the first four games, Mumbai's biggest hitter, Kieron Pollard, didn't show up. When he finally slammed 78 off 48 balls against the Sunrisers Hyderabad, Mumbai lost by a whisker - once again because their batting order failed.
To put Mumbai's abysmal batting performance in perspective, their best score in the first four games was 141, and when Pollard fired in the fifth game, Mumbai posted 157.
Another indicator of Mumbai's shambolic performance is the number of half-centuries scored by their batsmen. Rohit Sharma has scored 3, but he has started slowly in all of them and not looked at his best. Ambati Rayudu has scored 2 half-centuries, but his strike is 120 and 2 half-centuries in 10 games is not a great performance anyway.
Kieron Pollard has a high score of 78 and then another score of 40+. He has only shown form in the last six games. Corey Anderson, hired because he became famous for smashing a 36-ball century in an ODI against West Indies, has been a big disappointment. He has neither been able to score runs quickly nor score many runs. His highest score is 39, his average 18 and his strike rate 118. By no stretch of imagination are these figures acceptable for an aggressive middle-order batsman.
The biggest disappointment, who has gone unnoticed in the batting order has been Aditya Tare who has 118 runs from 10 games at an average of 17, with no fifties.
Mumbai's bowling, hailed for its quality, has also performed well below expectations. Lasith Malinga is the only standout bowler, with 16 wickets and an economy rate of 6.45. Harbhajan has a better economy rate but has just taken 8 wickets in 10 games. The less said about Pragyan Ojha, Kieron Pollard and Corey Anderson, the better. They have simply been smacked around.
Ambati Rayudu is Mumbai's highest scorer in this year's IPL and he comes in at a lowly number 9 on the list. Rohit Sharma is 12th on the list. This may just be a pointer to the fact that in a poor season, Mumbai Indians are sorely missing Sachin Tendulkar. Tendulkar was among the top (and most consistent) run scorers in all previous IPLs except the last year.
Similarly, Lasith Malinga is the 3rd highest wicket-taker this IPL, and the next Mumbai name on the list is Harbhajan Singh, at number 22.
Mumbai have four matches left - two against Rajasthan and one each against Punjab and Delhi. On present form, they are likely to win only against Delhi. At best, Mumbai can also act as a spoiler for Rajasthan Royals, who have six wins from 10 games. Rajasthan need three more wins to be assured of a place in the playoffs, and have Kolkata breathing down their necks at number 4.
However, Kolkata has lost 5 games, Hyderabad and Bangalore six out of 10. Therefore, even a loss to Mumbai would not push Rajasthan towards real danger of being eliminated. As the table stands now, Kolkata, Hyderabad and Bangalore are most likely to jostle for the fourth spot. Hyderabad and Bangalore will look to win all of their remaining games, and neither of them play against Mumbai.
Unless Rajasthan lose at least two of their remaining games, they will not be in any danger.
Therefore, Mumbai Indians really have few things to look forward to in IPL-7. This might warrant giving a chance to newer players - the semi-tested Ben Dunk, and the ones who have been mostly on the bench - Shreyas Gopal, Josh Hazlewood, Sushant Marathe and Marchant de Lange.
