Approving Authority:
The University may provide financial assistance to students whose
academic performance is likely to be impaired by financial difficulty by:
making short term loans available to enrolled students (Student Loan Scheme);
and making grants available to students enrolled in the second or later year of
an award of the University to assist recipients to continue their enrolment
in their current course (Student Grant Scheme).
Loans and grants provided via these schemes will not be available to
students enrolled in off-shore programs.
The Student Loan and Student Grant Schemes will be administered by the
University and Flinders Campus Community Services (FCCS). The funds available to support these
schemes will be managed by the Financial Services Division.
An annual review of the operation of the Student Loan and Student
Grant Schemes will be conducted. The Director, Financial Services Division will ensure that a report
relating to this review will be provided to the Vice-President (Strategic Finance and Resources) by no later than 30 June the following year. The report will include the
following: information regarding the number and value of loans and grants
provided; the proportion of students receiving financial assistance who
subsequently ceased to be enrolled; financial data relating to the operation
and viability of the fund supporting the schemes; and where relevant,
recommendations regarding the future operation of the schemes.
The Director, Academic and Student Services, or nominee, shall investigate and decide on
appeals from students who have been refused loans or grants. His or her decision shall be final.
Records relating to applications for loans and grants will normally only be available to the applicant,
the officers responsible for administering the fund and staff of the
Financial Services Division responsible for the financial management of the
fund. In the case of bad debts, loan records will also be made available to
the University's debt collector. The Director, Academic and Student Services, or nominee shall have access to records relating to
Operation of the Loan Scheme
2.1.1 The General Manager of FCCS will nominate officers of FCCS to be responsible for determining applications for loans.
2.1.2 The Director, Financial
Services (or nominees) will be responsible for authorising

the financial management of the loan funds and the administration of loans.
This includes monitoring expenditure from, and payments to, the loan account,
and providing data on a regular basis to the relevant FCCS Officers about
amounts loaned, payments recouped, the balance of the loan account and bad
2.1.4 The loan limit will be $500 for any one student. In
exceptional circumstances the Director, Academic and Student Services, or nominee, may
approve a higher amount. The
purposes for which a loan may be provided are set out in Appendix A.
2.2.1 The Student Loan Scheme
shall be administered as a lender of last resort. Applicants will be expected to have tried to obtain loans
from other sources.
2.2.2 A student's capacity to
repay the debt will be taken into account in considering an application for a
2.2.3 A student with an
outstanding loan will not normally be eligible for a subsequent loan.
2.2.4 A student's debt payment
history with the University, including previous Student Loan payment history,
will be taken into account in considering applications for subsequent loans.
2.3.1 Students applying for loans
are responsible for providing accurate documentary evidence to substantiate
their loan application. Such
documentation must include confirmation of the student's current financial
situation in the form of statements of income, expenditure and any
outstanding loans, and evidence to support the purpose of the particular loan
application (eg, receipts, quotations, letters of support from academic
staff). In the event that this
information is found to be inaccurate, loan approval will be withheld or
2.3.2 Applications for student
loans are to be made on the prescribed application form and lodged in person
at an interview with one of the nominated FCCS Officers. Loan applications, with the exception
of applications for emergency loans, will normally be processed within 10
working days.
2.3.3 The FCCS Officer will
discuss with the student the reasons for the loan, sources of assistance
previously approached and repayment proposals. The student's enrolment and
previous loan history will be checked at that time.
2.3.4 As a result of the
interview the FCCS Officer may decide: (i) to approve the loan; (ii) to not
approve the loan; (iii) to ask the student to provide more information.
2.3.5 In the case of approval of
a loan, the FCCS Officer will: (i) establish a loan agreement with the
student to include provision for the regular payment of an agreed amount;
(ii) advise the student of the conditions of the loan; (iii) present a copy
of the loan agreement to the Cashiers' Supervisor.
2.3.6 Upon presentation of the
loan agreement the Cashier's Supervisor will: (i) arrange for a cheque to be
issued payable to the student or his/her creditors for the full amount of the
loan; (ii) set up an instalment plan on the Student Information System as per
the loan agreement.
2.3.7 In the case of non-approval
of a loan, the FCCS Officer will notify the student to this effect, giving
reasons in writing why the loan was not approved in accordance with the
eligibility criteria and advising the student of his/her appeal rights.
Repayment of Loans
2.4.1 A student who has been
granted a loan shall enter into a written agreement with the University to
repay the loan on conditions approved by an officer responsible for
administering the fund. These conditions will normally be as follows:
(a) Minimum loan repayments shall be set at $25 per fortnight
or 5% of the loan, whichever is greater.
(b) Repayments shall be made on a regular basis to the
Cashier's Office of the Financial Services Division.
(c) Loans must normally be repaid within 12 months.
(d) Loans will
be interest free.
(e) If a person ceases to be an enrolled student, his/her
loan must be discharged in full prior to leaving the University.
(f) A student who is unable to meet the agreed payments may
seek to renegotiate those payments either by contacting the Cashiers'
Supervisor, or by contacting the FCCS Officer.
(g) A student who does not discharge his or her debt to the
University will have this debt recorded on his/her student record in the
Student Information System, and will be subject to the provisions of the
University's Policy on Students with Outstanding Debts. In addition, the matter may be
placed in the hands of a debt collector for recovery.
Recipients of grants will
be enrolled students in the second or later year of an award of the University.
Priority will be given to
the following: Australian students or students with permanent residency
status; undergraduate students; students who have not previously accessed a
grant; students facing particular difficulty in continuing their studies in
the second half of the year.
The aim of a grant will be
to assist the student to continue their enrolment in their current course.
The value of the grant will
not exceed $500.
Grants should be available
to students who are ineligible for a loan or for whom a loan would be
Applicants must demonstrate
that other sources of assistance have been sought and are unavailable or
Students applying for
grants are responsible for providing accurate documentary evidence to
substantiate their application. Such documentation must include confirmation of the student's current
financial situation in the form of statements of income, expenditure and any

There are two means of walking on water; the regime determined by the ratio of the animal's weight to the maximum vertical force that the surface layer can extert. Creatures such as the basilisk lizard have a weight which is larger than the surface tension can support.
Surface living animals such as the water strider typically have hydrophobic feet covered in small hairs that prevent the feet from breaking the surface and becoming wet.
According to biophysicist David L. Hu, there are at least 342 species of water striders. As striders increase in size, their legs become proportionately longer, with Gigantometra gigas having a length of over 20 cm and a weight of about 40 millinewtons.
Water striders generate thrust by shedding vortices in the water: a series of "U"-shaped vortex filaments is created during the power stroke. The two free ends of the "U" are attached to the water surface. These vortices transfer enough (backward) momentum to the water to propel the animal forwards (note that some momentum is transferred by capillary waves; see Denny's paradox for a more detailed discussion)
To pass from the water surface to land, a water-walking insect must contend with the slope of the meniscus at the water's edge. Many such insects are unable to climb this meniscus using their usual propulsion mechanism.
David Hu and coworker John W. M. Bush have shown that such insects climb meniscuses by assuming a fixed body posture. This deforms the water surface and generates capillary forces that propels the insect up the slope without moving its appendages.
Hu and Bush conclude that meniscus climbing is an unusual means of propulsion in that the insect propels itself in a quasi-static configuration; without moving its appendages. Biolocomotion is generally characterized by the transfer of muscular strain energy to the kinetic and gravitational potential energy of the creature, and the kinetic energy of the suspending fluid. In contrast, meniscus climbing has a different energy pathway: by deforming the free surface, the insect converts muscular strain to the surface energy that powers its ascent.

A one purpose design that does the job simply. Yes, how simple can it get? Just plug it in to your vehicle connector and read it and weep.Yes, you do need someone in the vehicle to press the brakes and move the turn signal lever but once that is done you know if you need to do any work and if so, what. Makes sure that the problem is either with the tow vehicle or the trailer wiring/lights, etc. I would like to have had a little more sticking out to be able to get a better grip to remove it but a pair of pliers did the job fine.

About Me Fisherman
This tool has a single specialized purpose which is to eliminate any possible electrical issues in your vehicle, or vehicle trailer wiring. It reads easy and is simple to use. It's only fault is that using it is a two-person job. One person in the vehicle to work the lights, and one person outside at the trailer connection to confirm operation. Other than that, it does it perfectly. Once the vehicle lighting/wiring is eliminated you can confidently move onto troubleshooting the wiring/lighting on the trailer side.
Easy Speezy to use.

Shortly after 1:30 p.m. on Feb. 24, 2010, a SeaWorld Orlando trainer lost her life in a tragic accident involving one of the park's killer whales. The death of Dawn Brancheau was an occasion of almost unbearable sadness for those closest to Dawn — her family, friends and colleagues at SeaWorld. I was honored to know Dawn and count myself among those SeaWorld team members deeply affected by her loss.
Dawn's death has been the subject of thousands of articles, broadcast news stories, blogs, books, and now a feature film called Blackfish. Many of these accounts trade in the details of Dawn's death in graphic detail. They do so not to inform but, rather, regrettably, because of the desire to sensationalize. The three years since Dawn's death have seen the emergence of individuals who have chosen not to honor her memory, but rather to use the events of Feb. 24, 2010 to advance their own interests. Some seek commercial gain. Others seek to forward a political or philosophical agenda. Still others appear to be engaged in self-promotion.
But anyone approaching this subject in good faith must recognize a simple fact: Our staff has interacted with killer whales — for veterinary care, training, shows, educational presentations, husbandry, exercise, play and enrichment — hundreds of times a day for nearly 50 years. The tragedy of Dawn's death cannot and has not been ignored, but neither should the literally millions of safe interactions we have had with killer whales over that span of time. Blackfish focuses on a handful of incidents over our long history at the exclusion of everything else. Not a single interview with a guest who was inspired and enriched by their experience with killer whales at SeaWorld. Not one visitor who left SeaWorld more aware of the need to preserve the world around them. Not one word about the thousands of ill, orphaned and injured animals rescued by SeaWorld or the millions of dollars we dedicate to supporting conservation and research. There is no acknowledgment anywhere in the film of the great things SeaWorld does every day or the simple fact that our animals are healthy and passionately cared for.
I started at Sea World in 1975 and have witnessed the growth and changes that come with a company that is dedicated to understanding these magnificent animals. We have collected invaluable information about these animals that could not be obtained from observation in the wild. In the three years since Dawn's death, we have again made significant changes at SeaWorld. We have altered how we care for, display and train these extraordinary animals. We have changed the facilities, equipment and procedures at our killer whale habitats. The care and educational presentation of these animals at SeaWorld has been made safer than ever before. Does Blackfish inform its viewers of that fact? No, it does not. And by that omission the film reveals itself not as a work of objective documentary filmmaking, but rather as something closer to propaganda. As we have said many times, there is simply no higher priority for us than the safety of our guests and staff and the welfare of our animals.

Smarter Car RentingHere are car rental tips from the road trip-seasoned editors of RoadsideAmerica.com:
• Many States, One Car:If renting a car for a longer road trip, check with the car rental companies in Westover, West Virginia to see if they have policies about crossing state lines that affect the final rate you pay. May be no effect, but don't assume you can crisscross the globe with unlimited mileage impunity. There may be a GPS tracker in the car!
• Damaged:Always carefully eyeball your vehicle before leaving the rental agency, whether you're in Westover or East Podunkville. The last renter may have pulled in after a meteor shower! Prior scratches, dents, and other vehicle damage can cause extra headaches and costs if not noted before you leave the rental car lot. If you see any damage on the car's exterior and interior before you leave, make sure it's noted on the rental car papers, and point it out to an agency employee. This will resolve any questions that could arise when you return. And avoid meteor showers.
• Fear of the Unknown:Unfamiliar with the streets of Westover? Consider adding a GPS navigation system to your rental. GPS provides turn-by-turn directions to a number of Westover attractions and businesses, and is offered by almost all Westover car rental agencies. The GPS helps you navigate like some mythical Greek God of Navigation! You can also add your own portable GPS on your handy windshield sucker, but remember to take it all with you when you turn in the car at the end of your trip.

UTSA physics professor Miguel Jose Yacaman awarded for international influence
(May 20, 2011)--Miguel Jose Yacaman, UTSA professor of physics and chair of the Department of Physics and Astronomy, has received the John Wheatley Award. The award is presented by the American Physical Society with support from the Forum on International Physics, and recognized Yacaman for his work in the field of physics throughout Latin American countries.
Presented every other year at the general meeting of the American Physical Society, the award recognizes a physicist who has made an outstanding contribution to the development of physics in a developing country by working with local physicists in research or teaching.
For seven years, Yacaman has directed the International Center for Nanotechnology and Advanced Materials (ICNAM), which promotes partnerships between scientists and engineers in Mexico and the University of Texas System. Yacaman's laboratory has hosted numerous graduate students and postdoctoral fellows from Mexico and other Latin American countries, and he believes the experience benefits all parties involved.
"Scientists from abroad can learn a lot about the American entrepreneurial spirit," said Yacaman, who grew up in Mexico. "Also, practicing science abroad strengthens a number of skill sets including language and cultural understanding."
At UTSA, a Hispanic-serving institution at which total Hispanic enrollment constitutes a minimum of 25 percent of the total enrollment, interactions with scientists from Latin America provide great value. Students working with international scientists here or abroad can develop a new perspective of how successful Hispanic scientists can be.
Hard work is important, Yacaman said, but higher education opens doors that hard work alone cannot. During the 1950s and 1960s, attaining higher education was a guarantee for a better life for people in Mexico and other Latin American countries. Yacaman believes it is important to students in Texas and hopes to instill that value in his students at UTSA.
UTSA College of Sciences Dean George Perry agrees. "Real examples of successful Hispanic scientists will help our students visualize themselves as succeeding," he said. "Miguel is doing a great job of connecting people and making stronger bonds throughout Latin America."
In addition to receiving the award at the American Physical Society's meeting in Anaheim, Calif., Yacaman gave a talk, "Picometer Resolution Electron Microscopy: A New Tool to Tailor Materials at the Atomic Scale," in which he discussed his research and connections to Latin America.
The American Physical Society was founded in 1899, when 36 physicists gathered at Columbia University with the goal to create a society that would advance and diffuse the knowledge of physics. APS is active in public and governmental affairs, and in the international physics community. The society has 46,000 members within 14 divisions and nine topical groups covering all areas of physics research.
The John Wheatley Award is given to a physicist, generally from a developed country, who at personal or professional cost, goes to a less-developed country and promotes physics, as John Wheatley did in Argentina.

Recently, new applications based on detection of delayed neutrons (DNs) or delayed photons produced during photofission have shown the need for new basic nuclear data. Indeed, available data for DNs are scarce, incomplete, and sometimes contradictory. An experimental campaign has been dedicated to DN measurements for some important actinides with a bremsstrahlung end-point energy spectrum up to 20 MeV. The experiments were carried out at the electron accelerator facility ELSA installed at the Commissariat à l'Energie Atomique (CEA) center of Bruyères-le-Châtel, France. Delayed neutrons were measured by 12 3He counters embedded in an annular polyethylene cylinder. Delayed neutron absolute yields were determined. Different irradiation-decay time combinations allowed the extraction of the averaged six-group parameters of DNs. Similarly to the nuclear reactor physics, these groups are formed by lumping DN precursors according to their half-lives. The DN time dependence is then expressed by the sum of group contributions.In this paper, DN absolute yields and six-group parameters for 235U at 15 and 18 MeV and 237Np at 15 MeV are presented. The 235U and 237Np absolute DN yields are found slightly lower than those published in the literature. For 235U, the six-group parameters show no dependence on incident electron energy from 10 to 18 MeV. In addition, the group parameters are very close to those of 237Np. This work helped to resolve the discrepancies of the photofission DN parameters for 235U while the six-group parameters for 237Np are reported for the first time.

Their goal is to raise awareness of the networking site and its events on Campus. Their role on the Student Advisory Council of CAREER15 also allows them to provide the staff of CAREER15 with advice.
Maldonado and Holden plan to advertise CAREER15 and MaroonNet, Roanoke's private online job and internship site for Roanoke students and alumni access only, with magnets and outdoor signs around campus near academic buildings and residence halls. Additionally, CAREER15 promotional funds will be used to provide door prize opportunities for students attending the Internship Fair in late February.
In the past, financial institutions were the main employers using CAREER15 to hire college students-mostly business majors. CAREER15 aims to provide a variety of jobs so that more majors are being included. CAREER15 was launched in 2007 by the VFIC to give companies a cost-efficient and time-efficient way to connect with students enrolled at the 15 private colleges and universities in Virginia who are looking for jobs or internships.
Currently, over 100 employers and over 3,500 students are participating in CAREER15.

Having reinvented the Data Loss Prevention Market with their content aware reverse firewall, GTB Technologies is now changing, for the better, the Data Classification space by utilizing its proprietary content fingerprinting technology to classify data and files based on unstructured and / or structured data.
GTB Technologies goal is to properly secure an organizations' mission critical information from data leakage by bringing a broad set of influential DLP innovations and unique vision to the market.
Increase in Phishing Attacks:
With increased phishing attacks and data leak risks, protecting sensitive data, customer & corporate information from a breach is more important than ever. Therefore, it's tantamount that organizations know the answers to these questions:
Continuous Compliance:
The ability to become and maintain compliance with the never ending list of Federal, State & International Government data security regulations such as Sarbanes Oxley (SOX), GLBA, HIPAA, CA SB1386, CA AB1950, Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard, The US Patriot Act, FISMA, FERC/NERC, PCI, EU Data Protection directive, Data Breach Notification Law, NPP-9, PIPEDA, ITAR, Law 152-FZ "On Personal Data" Code Federal Financial Markets Service, the Joint UK Corporate Governance Code ... is made even more difficult with the consumerization of data.
"Our system provides users multiple remediation functions such as copy, move, delete and best of all encrypt. Utilizing disruptive, cutting edge technology, the system will not only identify & classify data and/or files, it will also prove the absence of such policy violations." said Wendy Cohen, GTB's COO.
"GTB's data protection suite affords users the ability to detect data with virtually 100% accuracy thereby avoiding the endless, time consuming "tuning" processes needed to avoid the false positives which overwhelm many of the existing systems on the market." continued Cohen.
Data Loss Prevention is an ongoing process
Understanding that Data Loss Prevention is an ongoing process, the first and most important step is Data Classification, or having the ability to identify what sensitive content to monitor and protect. This can be customer information, HR data, financial statements, source code, Salesforce data, business plans, cloud data, rich media content and much more.
The combining of its AccuMatch Detection with its data classification, collection features and capabilities; GTB Technologies has created a tool which provides an organization the unsurpassed ability to:

Top freestyle motocross riders joined for a private show for the hospital's young patients and their families. X-Games Gold Medalists Ronnie Renner and Tommy Clowers will be flying high with Myles Richmond and Destin Cantrell as the four extreme athletes performed a heart-stopping array of tricks over a 75-foot ramp-to-ramp gap.
Afterwards, Supercross racers Andrew Short, Josh Hansen, Justin Brayton, PJ Larsen, Davi Millsaps and 7-time Supercross Champion, Jeremy McGrath joined them in touring the hospital. Also present was X-Games medalist and truck racing champion, Ricky James, multi-time Women's Amateur Champion, Sarah Price, star of MTV's Nitro Circus, Andy Bell and Robbie Maddison, fresh off his New Year's Eve world record-setting jump of nearly 400 feet.
Former professional Motocross rider, Steve Bauer founded this event in 2003 as a way for the Motocross industry to give back to the community. Every year since then the hospital has welcomed Steve and a handful of the world's greatest motocross racers as they tour the hospital, handing out gifts such as t-shirts, hats, toys and posters to the children and their families. In 2005, Steve contacted Jeff Tilton to add a FMX demo to the event. The sight of the athletes performing tricks on their 220 lb machines just a few feet outside their second story window was such a huge hit with the patients, families, and hospital staff that it is now one of the most highly anticipated events of the year at LLUCH.

- Current Research/Projects
I'm responsible for generating all of my shelter cleaning and disinfecting protocols. I've been using Trifectant and 1:10 bleach, when necessary, for years and have no problems. I'm preparing to give an information session to a shelter with limited financial resources and in the process of doing research was informed that Kennel Kare SC was effective against panleukopenia, calicivirus,parvovirus, ringworm, giardia,and COCCIDIA! Sounds like a miracle disinfectant! I find most of this highly questionable but would like to know if any of it is true.
I'm glad your organization has you responsible for generating its cleaning protocols because you ask the right questions! There is a FAQ (www.sheltermedicine.com, Shelter Health portal, FAQ #239) on our website that essentially answers your concerns about Kennel Kare.
To summarize: Kennel Kare is a quaternary ammonium disinfectant or "quat". Contrary to many manufacturers' claims "quats" are not reliable disinfectants against unenveloped viruses such as parvo/panleukopenia, calicivirus and fungi such as ringworm. This has been repeatedly shown in independent studies. I looked at the company's website; it claims that its product can kill parvovirus but must be used at a much higher concentration. It does not mention giardia or coccidia anywhere. Although some quat manufacturers now claim that their reformulated products (they did this after the aforementioned studies) can kill parvo this has neither been independently verified nor is it likely.
Also, please note: Using a higher concentration of quats raises toxicity issues in animals. Like many active chemicals, disinfectants are not without the potential for harm. At minimum, use of disinfectants at excessively high concentrations can create respiratory irritation for animals and staff, and some chemicals (such as quaternary ammonium (Grier 1967; Trapani, Brooks et al. 1982) and phenol disinfectants (Rousseaux, Smith et al. 1986), e.g. Pine-sol®) can actually be fatal when applied incorrectly. We have investigated several "outbreaks" of severe oral ulceration, fever and malaise in cats that turned out not to be due to a virus but to exposure to incorrectly diluted quaternary ammonium disinfectants.
That being said quats are perfectly good cleaners and can be used in kennels that do not have parvo/panleukopenia/calicivirus problems. Financially strapped shelters can always "bring on the bleach" as a disinfectant to use after cleaning if these viruses appear. There is a relatively new product on the market "Bru-clean" which is a bleach-based cleaner/disinfectant. Although it has not been verified by independent studies it appears to effectively kill parvo as reported by shelters that are using it (so far). I don't know how the cost compares to Trifectant but it is another disinfection product to consider.
One last point, bleach need only be a 1:32 (1/2 cup/gallon) concentration to be effectively parvocidal as long as there is no organic matter and surface contact time is 10 minutes. Bleach at a 1:10 dilution is used only for ringworm control.

You were whored once by an evil man who has gone from the dark side to the side of goodness. He has ended his whoring ways. he has crawled out of his swamp of depression. He has taken up golf and fishing. He has shaved his face. He has taken a shower. He has eaten breakfast. He has put on a white suit. He has gone back to work. He has gotten engaged. He has taken away the hot picture that used to be here. This template replaces the evil whoring he once did. He is sorry. This message was paid for with positive energy and love

Crime waves [1]
Killing the Shadows
Val McDermid HarperCollins, 423pp, £16.99
Killing the Shadows
Val McDermid HarperCollins, 423pp, £16.99
by Nicola Upson [2] Published
When you earn a living by writing about violent death, to find that you have created the scenario for your own murder may feel like something of a sick joke. In Val McDermid's latest thriller, Killing the Shadows, crime writers are the victims, hunted by a killer who is determined to take revenge on those who have turned psychological profilers into modern-day heroes. Fiona Cameron, an academic psychologist who uses computer technology to help the police track down serial offenders, is reluctant to get involved - until, that is, it becomes clear that her boyfriend, himself a writer, is next on the list, destined to be murdered in a scene of his own imagining. In the words of one of the detectives on the case: "It's twisted but it makes a kind of sense."
As ever, McDermid's writing is quite superb. This story is a wonderful pastiche of other styles, from the American supersleuths of Patricia Cornwell and Kathy Reichs to the Scottish noir of Ian Rankin. Yet there is something not quite convincing. McDermid's previous novel, A Place of Execution, set in an isolated Derbyshire hamlet in the wake of the "Moors Murders", had an emotional intensity that was too often lost here in a barrage of computer print-outs and incessant e-mails. (McDermid's allegiance to technology may reflect the fast-changing world of criminal investigation, but it doesn't necessarily make for richer fiction.) Although Killing the Shadows is imaginative and flawlessly plotted, it fails to go that one step further.
Only a handful of writers, in any genre, can match Barbara Vine for imaginative originality and ingenuity. The mirror image of her earlier work, King Solomon's Carpet, her new book, Grasshopper, is a complex blend of familiar Vine themes: the hold of the past on the present; lives entwined by the smallest of coincidences; buried secrets and deep-seated fears.
Packed off to college at the age of 19 after her involvement in a fatal accident on a pylon, Clodagh swaps her Suffolk home for the stifling basement flat owned by an older academic cousin and his sitcom-star wife. Suffering from acute claustrophobia, she crosses London on foot and by bus. One day, by chance, she meets and falls in love with Silver, a privileged young man whose flat at the top of his parents' house is home to a strange collection of misfits and drop-outs united by their love of the city's rooftops. In their company, Clodagh experiences a new life of freedom and adventure, until the accidental glimpse of a couple on the run from the social services with their fostered child sparks a chain of events that lead to inevitable tragedy and, mysteriously, to her own redemption.
Grasshopper is about good intentions gone wrong, violence, innocence and an encounter with true evil. To read Vine's prose is to have vivid imaginative access to the spires of St Saviour's, St Mark's and St Augustine's; to a view of Regent's Park set out like the royal hunting ground it once was; to a place devoid of rules or even time, as unspoilt now as streets before the advent of cars. To say that a book can open your eyes to a different world is a cliche, but rarely has it been more apt than in describing this novel.

Jamie's Italian (Canary Wharf)
your comments review this restaurant and win a bottle of champagne
Went there to take some friends for a special occasion as it had been reccomended by several friends and colleagues and was fairly central in a 60 mile radius!!
On reflection it was a long way to travel for an extremely below average meal
Service was brilliant, friendly and helpful
Food not so good, would not risk another Jamie restaurant having eaten here.
Although was very reasonably priced my guest and i still expect to enjoy our food, had better brakes bros.

Today it was my first experience with Jamie's Italian. We decided to have an Easter dinner with my friends. And I liked it. The food was very nice, decor is casual and nice, the waiters were polite and helpful. I don't agree the portions are small- after main with two little sides and dessert I felt really full and happy. Definitely place to be back. Thanks.

Having eaten previously at Portsmouth and Brighton we had assumed that given the fact it is a chain restaurant then, although not the finest of cuisine it would be consistent. How sadly wrong we were!! The food was of poor quality and appeared to be of a reheated consistency, dry, gloopy and bland. The seafood was over cooked and of poor quality, ironic given the proximity of billingsgate! The service was appalling at the start of the meal we were forced along at an uncomfortably rapid pace giving us the feeling that they wished to turn the table at least once more that night, even to the point of having our plates cleared whilst some of our party were still eating. On commenting that I hadn't finished the waitress quipped that it was ok I could finish mine before she took it! I could unfortunately go on and on but I have a life to lead! But suffice it to say it was a disappointing poor quality poor value for money food experience. Jamie, you should be embarrassed that your name is associated with this excuse for a restaurant but there again I suspect it's adding nicely to you piggy bank ...... Shame on you.

A group from the office went to Jamie's recently for our Christmas lunch. We ordered from the special christmas menu and all in all it was very disappointing. The appetiser was nice and was set out on boards for the group to share but they did not clear it for almost 40 minutes and so we did not even get our main courses until over an hour after arriving. The main courses were pretty poor generally. The table had ordered pretty much every choice on the menu and most of it was disappointing. The gnocchi was completely tasteless, the chicken was undercooked in parts for two of our party, the pork was found to be pretty boring as well and the fish was swimming in a tasteless broth, which actually detracted from the dish. The service was sooooo slow several of us had to leave early without having any of our desserts. I have to say that it was one of the most disappointing Christmas lunches any of us had ever had. I now see why it was so easy to get a reservation. I do not normally write reviews but felt compelled on this occasion to do so the whole experience was one that none of us will be repeating.

My wife and daughter took me to Jamie's Italian at Canary Wharf last night, 26th July 2012. Whenever I visit a specialist restaurant like this I never order their normal offering, in this case pasta, because this is probably made in bulk then microwaved for individual customers. Wanting something fresh, I ordered the 8oz sirloin steak at £16.95. I told the server that I wanted it blue, very blue. He replied "our chef knows how to do that". He them told me it did not include any chips, so I also had to order a portion of those. Sometime later my wife's and daughters pasta arrived together with my chips, two minutes later my steak arrived. The steak was in two pieces? and medium done with plenty of gristle!
I told the server about this and he apologised and took it away. Another server walked by the table and said "that shouldn't take long". My server then returned and said that the chef told him that the steak would have to rest for ten minutes before he could cook it, I replied "is that how long the microwave takes to defrost it". So I then had to eat the chips. Needless to say the second steak was also in two pieces, plenty of gristle and still not blue. Do they employ chefs or re-heaters?
Who provides and who buys steak in pieces? I personally will not be visiting Jamie's restaurants again, but the starter of polenta chips were delicious.

BEIRUT: If we had to list the annoying things about living in Lebanon, traffic would likely be among the top three. Car owners and patrons of the city's semipublic transit system alike have been trapped in monstrous traffic jams where honking, screaming and complaining echo through the fume-infused atmosphere.
Theater director Josyane Boulos is not unlike many of her countrymen in having found herself many times becalmed, watching as her fellow motorists appear to go mad.
Then in 1996, after much participant observation, she realized that people's way of driving reveals a lot about their personalities. This was the inspiration for "Carton Rouge" (Red Card), a piece she published in Femme magazine.
After a decade of chronicling what she calls her "ironical and satirical statements on our society," Boulos decided to use her "Carton Rouge" as the basis of a new play. "3aj2et Seyr," (Traffic), as it's called, opened at Monnot Theater Thursday evening.
"3aj2et Seyr" tells the story of three passengers whose lives become intertwined while their car is stuck in traffic.
As the play begins, Yasmina (Boulos) is driving Lysa (Karen Nohra) to her class at the university. She does so at the behest of their mutual acquaintance Chadi (Tino Karam), who is Yasmina's lover and the boss of Lysa's mother.
The stage design effectively draws the audience into the action. The vehicle in which Yasmina and Lysa drive is a composite, with the steering wheel descending from above and the doors rolled on stage by Karam and Nohra.
Once stuck in traffic, Lysa and Yasmina scrutinize the different types of drivers they see around hem. The older woman advises the younger one not to marry someone like this "jaghal" – the kind of man who doesn't know how to drive with both hands on the wheel, who whistles and flirts with every woman that moves.
As Yasmina sees it, neither should Lysa marry the type of man who drives at a snail's pace – since it seems this betrays something about his performance in bed.
Heavy traffic also provides an occasion for the two women to discover more about one another – a dialogue accompanied by the soundtrack of horn honking and video projections of traffic.
Karam's "Chadi" is a sort of meat puppet for the various types of men that a woman will find in Beirut. He's the womanizing jaghal, the street vendor, the man who routinely abuses the rules of the road while shouting at everyone else's infringements. He's the man who addresses women as though they were slabs of meat while imagining himself irresistible.
Each time Karam entered the stage during Thursday evening's show, the audience laughed. His physical appearance isn't clownish, but his body language is extremely explicit, his facial expressions and vocal intonations so closely echoing the Beirut street that the incongruity itself was funny.
His depiction of a street vendor trying to sell rubbish to Lysa and Yasmina – Tupperware, chewing gum, cheap perfume – is particularly hilarious.
The play becomes even more appealing due to an unexpected 11th-hour plot twist concerning Yasmina and Chadi's future.
Boulos' goal isn't merely to mock Lebanese driving habits. She also wanted to highlight clashes among the generations. Yasmina is a 40-year old woman, "on her way to tante-ism," Boulos explained – referring to the Franco-Lebanese term "tante" (aunt), which refers to gregarious women of a certain age.
Yasmina, Boulos said, "is hysterical with an enormous, kind heart." Boulos' character is nicely foiled by Lysa's university student and Chadi's supremely (and unjustifiably) self-confident masculinity.
Her original idea, Boulos explained, was to write the piece as stand-up comedy. She quickly realized it would have more impact if it were staged as a more realistic theatrical comedy.
French comedian Clement Vieu, the play's stage director, was charged with infusing the decor with life. Vieu was part of the cast of "Online" – Boulos' previous play, which takes up the importance of social media in Lebanon and its impact on society – and he's returned to Lebanon several times since.
For the benefit of skeptics wondering about why a French actor largely innocent of Arabic was being employed as the stage director of "3aj2et Seyr," he said he worked mainly on voice tones, body language and the decor. Language isn't a barrier in this labor.
As a foreigner, Boulos remarked, Vieu probably "noticed things that we, locals, don't notice."
"[Traffic] is a hostile and aggressive environment which will have consequences on the characters' behavior," Vieu said, noting that, as the stage director, he decided to augment the onstage action with visual projections of Beirut's notorious traffic jams.
Boulos and Vieu want to depict the image drivers represent while in their traffic. People imagine they are invisible in their cars, she observed. Since it's their personal environment, they assume they can do and say whatever they want, forgetting that windows are not opaque.
"We think we are allowed to do anything in the car," Boulos observed, "because we think nobody sees us."
"3aj2et Seyr" will be staged at Monnot Theater until May 19. The show is in Arabic with French subtitles for Thursday and Sunday performances. For more information, please call 01-202-422. Tickets also available at Librairie Antoine.

Afternoon or before bed
This is a very intense pose that requires some concentration. If your body is tight, ease into it slowly and you'll feel a great stretch in the quads, lower back, and solar plexus. You may feel some intensity in the feet and ankles—if it's too intense, place a blanket or towel under your feet. If you have knee problems, skip this pose.
Begin with Cat-Cow motions for approximately 30 seconds to a minute. Lift into Down Dog for 5 deep inhales and 5 deep exhales. If you have bad knees, skip the following pose and just come to Child's pose. Otherwise, come to your hands and knees, and then bring the feet together so that the big toes are touching.
Now, move into Saddle pose: Sit back so that your bottom presses down on your feet—your knees should be a little wider than hip-width apart. If you're tight like me, just sit upright with your bottom squishing your feet into the ground. This will stretch the thighs while straightening and lengthening the spine. If you're more flexible, slowly lie back on the ground with your knees open wider than your hips and your big toes touching.
Come back to Down Dog and walk it out a little, bending one knee and then the other. Take 5 deep inhales and 5 deep exhales. Then lie down and rest for a few moments to recover.

Double and triple bonds are referred to as multiple bonds. These bonds are composed of a σ bond and either one or two π bonds. Because the π bonds are created by the side‐to‐side overlap of atomic p orbitals, any rotation around the σ bond results in the destruction of all of the π bonds. The effect on the double bond of ethene if rotation is attempted around the σ bond is shown in Figure .

This paper presents findings from a study of information seeking behaviour by National Health Service patients which explored motivational triggers for infor- mation needs. Previous research has highlighted the importance of contextual elements in users' changing information needs. This paper highlights how those needs may centre on specific events: in particular, a patient's consultation with their doctor. Patients initiate information seeking to assess whether they need clinical intervention, in preparation for the patient-doctor consultation and to verify the diagnosis or treatment stemming from that consultation. The study has revealed that having confidence in health practitioners is one key motiva- tion for information seeking. Another is a desire to use health service resources judiciously, efficiently and effectively.

Cook sugar in a 3-quart dry heavy saucepan over moderately low heat, stirring slowly with a fork (to help sugar melt evenly), until melted and pale golden. Cook caramel without stirring, swirling pan, until deep golden. Remove pan from heat and carefully add wine (mixture will bubble up and caramel will harden), then simmer until caramel is dissolved and syrup is reduced to about 1 1/2 cups, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool to room temperature.
Divide berries among 8 serving bowls, then spoon syrup over berries.
Cooks' notes: To cool syrup quickly, pour into a metal bowl set in a larger bowl of ice and cold water and stir occasionally. Syrup can be made 2 days ahead and chilled, covered. Bring to room temperature before using.
