"I'm a professional and I'm looking for a new job. At this time Kenny is the manager and I have a lot of respect for him.
"No rush. If Kenny retires in 10 years and I'm available, I would be pleased.
"I want to manage in the Premier League because I know, with my team, we can win trophies."
Kenny Dalglish is 31/20 with Sportingbet not to be the Liverpool manager on the first day of the 2012-13 Premier League season.
Dalglish has come under criticism of late as he has failed to carry the Reds' fine cup form into their Premier League campaign this season, with Liverpool currently sitting in a disappointing 7th in the table despite having won the League Cup and setting up an FA Cup semi-final clash with local rivals Everton.

Baking Soda Can Save the Day
Written on January 29, 2015 by Victoria
We have been talking a lot about home-made remedies recently and, luckily, there is just no end to what we can do with original ingredients and materials, right from home. If your skin is particularly oily and acne prone for example, you can make another effective face mask from your kitchen with just two inexpensive items- baking soda and water.
Just mix baking soda (not powder) and water until a paste is formed. Apply on your skin and leave for about 2o minutes, then wash off. The baking soda sucks out oils and dried out existing pimples at the same time so you get a two in one action. If you have sensitive skin though or you feel itch and tingling, wash off before the 20 minutes is up.
This is a natural way to control oil production on your face and dry out pimples that have popped out too. Remember though, if you have serious acne issues it is best to see a doctor.

Do I need to be a member of the RIPE NCC to receive an IPv4 transfer?
It depends on what kind of address space is being transferred.
The receiving organisation will need to be a member in the case of:
- A transfer of allocated Provider Aggregatable (PA) space from another LIR
- A transfer of PA space through a merger or acquisition (though the receiving party may become a member as the transfer is processed)
The receiving organisation will not need to be a member in the case of:
- A transfer of Provider Independent (PI) space from another resource holder
- A merger or acquisition where the organisation receiving PI space has a sponsoring LIR

Woot! Two months should be perfect. What will you be doing there?
Honestly I didn't get to know the bar scene well; if I had stayed longer I probably would have. I liked Colectivo Central aka "Bar Central" west of the zócalo; it's a lot like a hip San Francisco bar in both the good and bad ways. A fellow norteamericano and I watched a US-Mexico fútbol game in Bar Caffeine (next to Inglesia Santa Domingo) and had a great time drunkenly rooting and joking with the locals in our respective broken languages.
On the other hand, on my last night in Oaxaca some guy I'd never seen before tried to kick my ass in a nightclub, but it got as far as him reaching for me when his friends jumped all over him. I still have no idea what that was about. I had been having a good time talking to his friend (who spent a lot of time in LA and had lots of gang tattoos - funny, but the tough guys are always really nice in person) for about fifteen minutes. I don't remember the name of the nightclub, but it's the one in my pictures with the red walls.
Hiring a bike? Dunno, but I didn't look - I conveniently brought my own
For two months, you might just want to buy one and sell it when you leave. 200cc bikes are cheap down there. Even new they're only about 20,000 pesos, so they can't cost too much used. Bigger bikes are rare in Oaxaca, and cost way more than they do in the US. If you go this route, I'm curious to know how complicated the paperwork, etc is!

is a spiritual practice developed in 1922 by Mikao Usui. After three weeks of fasting and meditating on Mount Kurama, in Japan, Usui claimed to receive the ability of "healing without energy depletion". A portion of the practice, tenohira or palm healing, is used as a form of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). Tenohira is a technique similar to the laying on of hands. During the practice of tenohira, practitioners believe they are moving "healing energy" (a form of ki) through the palms.
Neither the existence of ki nor any mechanism for its manipulation are scientifically proven, and a systematic review of randomized clinical trials conducted in 2008 did not support the efficacy of reiki or its recommendation for use in the treatment of any condition.
English reiki or Reiki transliterates a Japanese loanword. Reiki is syntactically used as a noun (referring to either "the putative energy" or "the therapeutic method that uses it"), a verb, or an adjective. Some authors like Hawayo Takata (below) translate reiki as "universal life energy". This coinage avoids the negative "mysterious, spooky" connotation of reiki but partially mistranslates: ki means "life energy" — rei does not mean "universal".
In April 1922, Usui moved to Tokyo and founded the Usui Reiki Ryoho Gakkai (Usui Reiki Healing Society).
Usui was an admirer of the literary works of Emperor Meiji, and, in the process of developing his Reiki system, summarised some of the emperor's works into a set of ethical principles, which later became known as the Reiki Principles.("GOKAI" in Japanese) Many Reiki teachers and practitioners aim to abide by these five principles,, one translation of which is:
Usui taught over 2000 students to use Reiki. Sixteen of his students continued their training to reach the Shinpiden level, equivalent to the Western third degree, or master level.
Usui died in 1926.
Hayashi initiated and trained Hawayo Takata, who travelled widely in the USA, practising Reiki and teaching the first two levels to others.
Takata stressed the importance of charging money for Reiki treatments and teachings. In 1976, Takata began teaching the Shinpiden stage and introduced the term Reiki master for this level. She also fixed a price of $10,000 for the master training.
Takata died in 1979 by which time she had trained 22 Reiki masters. Almost all Reiki taught outside Japan can be attributed to her work.
Reiki is described by adherents as a holistic therapy which brings about healing on physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels. The belief is that the energy will flow through the practitioner's hands whenever the hands are placed on, or held near a potential recipient, who can be clothed. Some teachings stress the importance of the practitioner's intention or presence in this process, while others claim that the energy is drawn by the recipient's injury to activate or enhance the natural healing processes. Going further, the belief is that the energy is "intelligent", making diagnosis unnecessary.
A second level of training, including another initiation, is said to equip the practitioner to perform Reiki treatments from a distance. This method, it is stated, involves the use of special symbols to form a temporary connection between the practitioner and the recipient, regardless of location, and then to send the Reiki energy. Techniques are also taught whereby Reiki can be sent to a specific point in time, either in the past or the future.
The treatment proceeds with the practitioner placing his hands on the recipient in various positions. However, practitioners may use a non-touching technique, where the hands are held a few centimetres away from the recipient's body, for some or all of the positions. The hands are usually kept still for 3 to 5 minutes before moving to the next position. Overall, the hand positions usually give a general coverage of the head, the front and back of the torso, the knees and feet. Between 12 and 20 positions are used, with the whole treatment lasting 45 to 90 minutes.
Some practitioners use a fixed set of hand positions. Others use their intuition to guide them as to where treatment is needed, sometimes starting the treatment with a "scan" of the recipient to find such areas. The intuitive approach might also lead to individual positions being treated for much shorter or longer periods of time.
It is reported that the recipient often feels warmth or tingling in the area being treated, even when a non-touching approach is being used. A state of deep relaxation, combined with a general feeling of well-being, is usually the most noticeable immediate effect of the treatment, although emotional releases can also occur. As the Reiki treatment is said to be stimulating natural healing processes, instantaneous "cures" of specific health problems are not usually observed. A series of three or more treatments, typically at intervals of 1 to 7 days, is usually recommended if a chronic condition is being addressed. Regular treatments, on an on-going basis, can be used with the aim of maintaining well-being. The interval between such treatments is typically in the range of 1 to 4 weeks, except in the case of self-treatment when a daily practice is common.
Some practitioners use localized treatments for certain ailments, and some publications have tabulated appropriate hand positions. However, other practitioners prefer to use the whole body treatment for all chronic conditions, on the grounds that it has a more holistic effect. Another approach is to give a whole body treatment first, followed by a localized treatment.
The National Council Against Health Fraud suggests that any clinical effect of Reiki may be due to suggestion (the placebo effect), and Reiki has been labelled as a "feel-good" therapy, where recipients themselves do not expect any significant healing effects.
Following the death of Hawayo Takata, through to the mid 1990s, there were rival claims to the title of "Grandmaster" of Reiki. However, this dispute largely evaporated when it was discovered that Takata herself had invented the title.

New West Brom head coach Steve Clarke accepts he will have to develop a more ruthless streak as he prepares for his first season taking charge of a team.
Having always been an assistant during a coaching career lasting over a decade, the 48-year-old Scot now has full responsibility for his own decisions. He knows that means he will have to adapt the approach which has served him well under spells with Jose Mourinho, the late Sir Bobby Robson and, most recently, Kenny Dalglish.
"I think I will need to be a bit more selfish now I'm a head coach - I'll have to be very clear with my ideas," said Clarke, whose first competitive match in charge will be at home to his previous employers Liverpool. "I will also have to be a bit more ruthless."

Facebook (FB) has launched a photo sharing app for Apple's (AAPL) iPhone, Facebook Camera for iPhone. Why, then, did Facebook spend $1 billion on Instagram if it knew this was in the works?
Looking at the product page, it's not quite clear why Facebook paid a significant amount of money and stock for the popular Instagram, when it was going to announce a strikingly similar product of its own.
Facebook has touted the fact that it has over 300 million photos uploaded to its site every day, so clearly this is a core feature for the social networking giant. Perhaps CEO Mark Zuckerberg bought Instagram because of fears that users would navigate away from the site, hurting a core part of Facebook's business.
A Facebook spokesman declined to comment on whether the new app would affect their plans for Instagram in the future, saying the deal had not yet closed.
The new app makes photo sharing easier, Facebook said, allowing users to share multiple photos at once, caption the picture, tag it and put your location on it.
It remains to be seen why Facebook bought Instagram if this project was in the works. It's not like the new iPhone app came together overnight. More likely, this has been a project that Facebook has been working on for months, which is only just seeing the light of day.
Instagram, of course, has become incredibly popular. Over 50 million users use the app to snap photos, apply filters to their shots, and share the pictures with their friends.
If there's one thing Wall Street and investors hate, it's uncertainty, particularly in the aftermath of a massive $1 billion acquisition. Expect Zuckerberg and his team to answer questions on the newly-public company's camera strategy or, potentially, face some very unhappy shareholders.

Arizona Wildcats
Russ Pennell talks Arizona Wildcats' chances in NCAA tournament
The Arizona Wildcats certainly have an interesting draw in their first game of the 2013 NCAA tournament.
The sixth-seeded Wildcats will take on the 11th-seeded Belmont Bruins, who some pundits around the country believe are poised to upset Arizona.
Former Grand Canyon University head coach Russ Pennell is not among the contingent of people who believe the Wildcats will be heading for an early exit.
"I think Belmont will play U of A tough," Pennell told Arizona Sports 620's Doug & Wolf Monday. "I don't think they can beat them and the reason being has a lot to do with the Pac-12 Tournament. I've always felt like that if there's a little bit of a satisfaction getting to the finals or winning the tournament and if you don't and especially because we know what happens with Sean [Miller] with the referee and all that stuff there's a little bit of some raw emotions there that I think they can build on this week."
Pennell, who led Arizona to the Sweet Sixteen in 2009 as an interim coach, believes the bitter taste in the Wildcats' mouth from their disappointing Pac-12 Tournament loss could benefit them in their tournament opener against the Bruins.
"I think that they can use that as a little bit of fire and I certainly know [Miller] well enough to know they're not going to overlook Belmont," Pennell said.
Pennell isn't taking anything away from a very good Belmont team that has shown they can move from league to league in one year and keep winning. The Bruins went from the Atlantic Sun Conference to the Ohio Valley Conference in 2013.
But in the end, he doesn't believe it'll be enough to upset the Wildcats.
"I think it'll be a good game, but I believe U of A moves on," Pennell stated.
But despite predicting Arizona to advance to the second round, Pennell believes their presence in the tournament will be short-lived. The former coach thinks if the Wildcats meet up with New Mexico in the second round, they'll struggle against a superior defensive Lobos team.
"New Mexico is one of the best defensive teams in the tournament. They are outstanding this year," Pennell explained. "They are athletic and long and they match up with people so well and this might be one of the better New Mexico teams that Steve [Alford ]'s had in a while. I do believe the U of A/New Mexico game will be a very, very good game. But I just believe defensively New Mexico's got a little edge on Arizona."

I was clicking through images of Burberry's Fall collection...again, and couldn't help but long for another Fall season that is all about jackets and coats. After being in NY for a handful of fall/winter seasons, a jacket isn't just another layering piece but a necessity. All four of these jackets would integrate perfectly into my wardrobe. The fur (i'm hoping it's not faux) is just another great fluffy piece that is luxurious and warm. The cropped over sized leather jacket is stunning...and fur lined!!!! You got me UNCLE UNCLE!!!!! I would be tempted to wear this year round even though the weather doesn't permit. The cropped cream jacket is the ideal silhouette to literally throw over anything::skirts, dresses, jeans, shorts, you name it! So stinking adorable! The color and collar on the green is to die for! And I must say, these knee high boots, tons of buckles, lined in shearling=the epitome of the perfect, no, best winter shoe.
I was so inspired and excited for the fall collection, I decided to take a trip to the past (Spring 2010) and check out that collection. I was quickly reminded of the draped body con skirts I had stashed away in last season's folder. I loved the draping and ruching on the skirts. Easy to be dressed up or down, perfect for an assortment of fabrics, and essential to pair with feminine socks and clogs or wedges.
{images from style.com}
I spent a while focusing on this skirt. I tried to find a retailer in my vicinity so I could purchase it, and before I could give a second thought to throwing down the big bucks I found the answer. I found a DIY tutorial for the skirt. In the 5-6 steps, I knew it was meant to be and would save me a pretty penny (maybe for the brown fur coat)! Check out tutorial here...I'm sure you'll find some more inspiring and sensational projects and images from the very talented fashion savvy creative at her blog Fashion Infusion.

Hello my Friend.
I hope this note finds you and your loved ones well. The weather in the northeast is turning cooler. The leaves will soon turn into the most beautiful shades of red and yellow. I believe fall to be my favorite season of all.
How I miss my family in Norway , and the coast. Sometimes it feels like my throat closes. And my heart threatens to break. Thank God, I have my daughter, which helps me with the rare but searingly painful moments.

Bill Sharman donated title ring to charity
APR 03, 2013 8:04p ET
Bill Sharman might have looked at the picture and laughed, as he requires even more to display all his gold-and-diamond hardware.
Sharman, 86, is the owner of 17 professional championship rings — 11 as a coach, general manager and consultant for the Lakers, four as a player with the Celtics and one each as coach of the ABL's Cleveland Pipers and the Utah Stars of the ABA. He also has two Hall of Fame rings — one as a player, one as a coach.
Total ring count: 19.
The Southern California native — also a pro baseball player, and a Dodgers reserve in 1951 when the New York Giants pulled off a 13½ game comeback on Brooklyn — was the first coach to lead the Lakers to a championship in Los Angeles. During the 1971-72 season, he took the squad to a then-record 69-13 record and the still-standing mark of 33 consecutive wins.
Now, Sharman and his wife, Joyce, have donated Bill's 2009-10 Lakers championship ring — when the Lakers beat the Celtics, 4 games to 3 — for a raffle to benefit various charities, including Toberman Neighborhood Center in San Pedro, Calif. The Sharmans host a yearly dinner to raise money to help underprivileged children who go through Toberman and Bill's Ring of Hope raffle.
"I've had the honor and privilege of working with numerous nonprofits, especially the Toberman Neighborhood Center," Sharman said. "I wanted to do something to give back and support the important and life-changing work that each of these organizations are doing for our community. I feel blessed that I can contribute to the meaningful work of each of these wonderful charities."
The raffle opened Wednesday and will run to 11 am ET on June 7. They're hoping to raise more than the record-setting $1.4 million bid on a New Orleans Saints Super Bowl ring.
The Sharmans and Toberman are honoring Lakers Hall of Famer James Worthy at their annual charity event Saturday night in Manhattan Beach, Calif.

Winter skin care
With cold temperatures and dry air, wintertime can be the skin's worst enemy. Thankfully, there are a multitude of natural products to help moisturize and nourish the body's largest organ.
Coconut oil, cocoa butter and shea butter are key ingredients that contain essential oils, vitamins A, C, D and E, and protein to protect and restore your skin. Oil-based moisturizers also are a better choice during the colder months instead of lotion, as oil helps your skin retain moisture. Of course wearing gloves, layering clothes, drinking plenty of water and using a humidifier also can help your skin stay healthy and hydrated.
Balms, butters and body oils
At PCC we have a great selection of products to help moisturize your skin during the winter:
Wild Carrot Herbals Ginger Body Butter
A great option for those living in the Northwest, this rich butter is great for extra-dry skin. Ginger-infused oil helps warm up and stimulate circulation, and a combination of organic coconut oil, raw shea butter and virgin cocoa butter nourish the skin. Locally made in northwestern Oregon.
Organic Fiji Certified Organic Virgin Coconut Oil
This coconut oil quickly hydrates and conditions the skin, and protects it from moisture loss. Choose from several different scents including lemongrass tangerine and lavender.
Alaffia Shea Butter
Alaffia's natural, raw shea butter is fairly traded, produced by a women's cooperative in Togo, Africa. Choose from an assortment of handcrafted shea butters, and also look for Cocoa Butter Body Cream which helps soften the skin.
Weleda Everon Face Balm
Specifically designed for extreme weather conditions, this balm offers deep, long-lasting hydration for overexposed skin. Sweet almond oil and beeswax help protect your skin from harsh elements, and together restore and strengthen it.
Bodyceuticals Calendula Body Oil
Great for dry skin, this soothing body oil helps promote skin cell renewal. Certified organic, it's locally produced in Kirkland, Wash.

Tax policy and controversy
In the current global economic climate, the ability to obtain timely, quality advice from trusted advisers in multiple jurisdictions is increasingly important.
At EY, we have a global network of tax controversy professionals spanning more than 80 countries. Our team works cohesively to assist clients when dealing with tax authorities in Australia and worldwide.
EY is a multi-disciplinary partnership which has one of the largest Tax Controversy practices in Australia, with eight partners and over 30 dedicated Tax Controversy professionals based in Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, and Brisbane. Our Tax Controversy team was the first of its kind in Australia, and continues to be the leading provider of dispute management services and tax administration advice.
At each stage of the tax audit life cycle, from managing the ATO's information gathering processing and assessment, through to objection and litigation, we create opportunities to resolve the matter for you.
Our multi-disciplinary team combines the knowledge and skills of lawyers and accountants to help you resolve your problems in the following fields:
Tax litigation
Tax litigation is distinct from other forms of commercial litigation. The Federal Court and Administrative Appeals Tribunal rules and procedures are different and the rules of engagement with the ATO are prescribed.
With over 20 lawyers with dedicated tax litigation experience, we have the depth and capabilities to represent you in the appropriate forum, including the:
- Administrative Appeals Tribunal
- State Civil and Administrative Tribunals
- State Supreme Courts
- Federal Court of Australia
- High Court of Australia
We have strong relationships with the Senior Revenue Bar to achieve the best possible resolution of your dispute.
Alternative dispute resolution services
The ATO is far more open to Alternative Dispute Resolution than was previously the case, and we have had recent successes in resolving tax disputes by:
- Informal settlement discussions
- Early neutral evaluation
- Mediation
- Conciliation
Taxpayers will often have legitimate strategic reasons for seeking to determine a matter in a court or tribunal.
We proactively consider opportunities to resolve matters through a number of different Alternative Dispute Resolution channels.
Alternative Dispute Resolution provides our clients with a more timely, cost-effective, and risk averse approach to resolving a tax dispute.
Our team is skilled in negotiating settlements with the ATO - whether simple or complex - capitalising on our knowledge of ATO protocol and our experience in advocating for our clients against the ATO.
Management of ATO risk reviews, audits, amendments, and objections
We deal with the ATO on a daily basis, managing ATO investigations, whether they are at the pre-compliance, audit stage or beyond.
Services we provide in this area include:
- Guidance and/or practical management of audit process
- Strategic review of client positions to determine appropriate taxpayer outcomes and testing of the strength of technical positions, including reviewing documentation
- Advice concerning taxpayer rights and obligations

- Evidentiary considerations and management of interaction with the ATO (including response to information requests and developing protocols and procedures for handling ATO relationships).
Our Tax Controversy team has a unique understanding of the ATO objection process. We assist clients in forming a strategic plan to deal with an objection and strive to ensure that your objection is determined efficiently by the ATO.
If you wish to object to an ATO decision, we can assist at any stage of the objection process - from drafting the objection and collating information, to liaising with the appropriate objection officers and working with you and the ATO to resolve the dispute prior to litigation.
Tax corporate governance and tax risk management
In recent years, the ATO has made it a requirement for corporate taxpayers to have 'good Tax Corporate Governance'.
EY's Tax Controversy practice is the market leader in Tax Corporate Governance, having developed over 40 formal policies for clients which meet the ATO requirements and manage tax risks.
We assist clients to define their tax strategy, formalise their Board reporting of tax issues and risks, manage tax controversies, meet compliance requirements (such as dealing with tax corporate governance questionnaires), and understand the taxes relevant to their business.
EY is also actively involved in a number of ATO consultative committees, contributes to thought leadership and frequently speaks at industry events in relation to tax risk management, Tax Corporate Governance and Board reporting.
When it comes to complicated tax transactions, we offer services to help you navigate the ATO ruling process.
We have a wealth of experience in:
- Drafting applications for a Private Binding Ruling or Class Ruling
- Entering into Early Engagement discussions with officers of the ATO prior to the lodgment of your ruling request
- Challenging an ATO ruling decision where necessary

Sevilla claimed their first league win of 2012 in new coach Michel's home debut after defeating Osasuna 2-0 in a hard-fought encounter at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan stadium.
Michel saw his side slump to a 2-0 defeat by Real Sociedad on Monday in his first game since replacing Marcelino Garcia Toral, but it was a happier night for the former Getafe boss this evening thanks to goals from Gary Medel and Piotr Trochowski.
Medel opened the scoring in the 16th minute and substitute Trochowski added a second deep into injury time as Sevilla earned their first La Liga win since 5 December, having picked up just two points from eight games since then.
Osasuna came into the match in buoyant mood following their shock win over Barcelona last weekend but it was Sevilla who started the better and Jesus Navas was denied by visiting goalkeeper Andres Fernandez in the tenth minute before Medel put the hosts in front.
Alvaro Negredo played the ball back to his team-mate 25 yards out and the Chilean international's low shot beat Fernandez diving to his right.
Negredo, Ivan Rakitic, Frederic Kanoute and Jose Antonio Reyes all tried their luck as Sevilla sought to increase their lead before the break, while Fernandez did well to keep out Federico Fazio's header at the start of the second period.
Osasuna were not without their chances either, though, and Andres Palop was called on to tip away Alvaro Cejudo's effort in the 52nd minute. Then, after Navas and Negredo just failed to combine in the 62nd minute after getting in behind the Osasuna defence, Palop made two brilliant saves to keep Sevilla in front.
In the 77th minute he deflected away Roland Lamah's shot with his feet, and two minutes later produced a superb one-handed save to keep out another effort from the Belgian striker.
Osasuna could not force an equaliser though and Sevilla wrapped up points with the last attack of the match when Navas' low cross picked out Trochowski near the penalty area and the German international lifted the ball past the outcoming Fernandez.

Windhoek — The Electricity Control Board (ECB) suggests that government should allocate N$213 million of the Local Authority Surcharges per annum as a subsidy to relieve consumers from paying higher electricity tariffs.
Currently all Regional Electricity Distributors entities also known as REDs pay surcharges to local and regional authorities who are the shareholders of the REDs.
Siseho Simasiku, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the ECB, who was speaking at a consultative meeting with members of the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Economics, Natural Resources and Public Accounts, yesterday said such an option would benefit consumers because they will get on average 13.12 cents kilowatts per hour (c/kWh) tariff relief.
The standing committee is responsible for reviewing and making recommendations to Parliament on bills relating to economic development, natural resources management and financial accountability.
Simasiku suggested that if government does not accept the recommended N$213 million subsidy, then the prevailing surcharge be fixed at 15c/kWh for all local authorities and regional councils in Namibia.The LA surcharge should be fixed at 15c/kWh and then reviewed every 2-3 years if need be and it should also allow for inflationary increases.
"These levels should be phased-in over a period of 3-5 years and government should subsidise the difference of those LA surcharges above 15c/kWh and the current levels," he noted.
In the long run, according to Simasiku this will be in the best interest of the Local Authorities (LAs) and Regional Councils (RCs), since the LA surcharge will keep up with inflationary pressures.
"But it will be at regulated levels and can be reviewed in terms of affordability to ensure that all parties are protected," he reasoned.
"Local authorities are imposing surcharges on consumers. REDs are not benefiting from surcharges. These are costs to consumers and when you talk of cost reflection, these are not supposed to be there. We recommend that government should subsidise the N$213 million for LA surcharges that will bring relief to consumers," Simasiku motivated the proposal.
Currently the City of Windhoek is getting N$90 million per year from the sales of electricity although it is not part of the REDs regime. This means the municipality adds surcharges on top of the electricity costs making the power expensive for consumers.
Simasiku also pleaded with government to exempt REDs from paying taxes, saying this will make the REDs more financially viable. Traditionally LAs/RCs have been using electricity to subsidise other municipal services.
"Local Authorities (LAs) and Regional Councils (RCs) need to carry out activities such as road infrastructure development. They come up with their budget and if there is a shortfall, then they get it from electricity by increasing tariffs and consumers have to pay more. Instead of consumers paying more let that money come from government,' explained Rojas Manyame, ECB General Manager for Regulation.
In 2004/5, the ECB undertook a study to determine the impact of and its methodology was developed to ensure LAs/RCs were not worse off after the creation of the REDs.
Established and operationalised REDs include NORED (northern Namibia) in 2002, CENORED (central-northern Namibia) in 2003 and Erongo RED (coastal Namibia) in 2005. CENORED and Erongo RED pay fixed amounts monthly to LAs/RCs in their areas.
Another study was carried out in 2008/9 to revise the methodology and it recommended a shift to c/kWh. The remaining REDs to be established and operationalised are SORED (southern Namibian and Central RED (central Namibia).
Simasiku told Members of Parliament that surcharges were created to protect the financial position of local authorities after joining the REDs regime, as well as to ensure that the financial impact of the LA surcharges are sufficiently managed (income neutral).
At the creation of the REDs between 2003/4, Gobabis LA surcharge stood at 43 c/kWh, followed by Grootfontein with 42 c/kWh and Luderitz stood at 31 c/kWh.
If government subsidise LA surcharges fully, it will mean customers both at Gobabis and Grootfontein will pay 42 cents less per unit.

LG is not just a leading brand in mobile industry, but they are also really famous when we talk about televisions. Last year they launched the new Google TV series at the CES 2012, and now it seems LG is planning to rock again next year at CES 2013. LG announced it on their blog that they are planning to launch at least 7 new Google TV sets, featuring different screen sizes, features, and thin bezel.
Although, Google TV is still not making an impact on the smart TV market, but we believe that with HD options and Google TV integration, and not to forget LG's beautiful thin design, small bezel, and amazing looking stands, I am kinda sure that it will attract a lot of customers.
You can see the pictures above, and my words, this is one beautiful TV. About the specs, it will feature a dual-core processor under the hood, including LG's TruPicture, 3D engines, and enhanced stereo sound. It will come in 42, 47, 50, 55 and 60-inch models, and they will land in US first and then the rest of the world.
CES is around the corner, so we hope to see these beautiful Google TVs at the mega event. Do not forget to share your thoughts with us in the comment box below.

Funny (and Sad)! Watch How Often Aaron Sorkin Plagiarizes Himself in Film and TV Scripts (VIDEO)
Love him or hate him, Aaron Sorkin is one of the most high-profile writers in the entertainment industry. His new show, The Newsroom, is earning the usual mix of adoration and backlash but you can't argue with his track record or his impact on American culture ... and himself.
A Sorkin fan created a video tribute showing how much dialogue the writer recycles in various projects. "This is not intended as a critique but rather a playful excursion through Sorkin's wonderful world of words," the creator posted on YouTube. The seven minute compilation includes scenes from Malice, A Few Good Men, Bulworth, Sports Night, The West Wing, Studio 60, Charlie Wilson's War and The Social Network.
It's impressive, funny and kinda sad at the same time.

Never stop flying!
This game (in my eyes) is the best Armored Core of all. Armored Core 2 lets you make and take you own battle armor out for a long mission campaign as well as a large arena side part. As you do more of the arena or missions you get a host of new parts to tune your mec to whatever play style you wish. You get to ground pound or take the fight to the sky for a mec dogfight. This game shines in that having your friends drop by so you can show off your mec and specs and fighting it out. I can't count the number of times I showed off my giant robot and I even went so far to set up a "battle tower" style of fighting witch made my friends beat my lower mecs before I sent out my big guns. Like I said this game let you build your own mec and the number of parts you can pic from is just crazy. The end result was that no one mec was the same. If you like giant robots or you like crazy story lines this one is for you. Four stars for all the fun I had and for the hope that people can find fun in the same ways I did.

Opinion: Romney's Middle Class Economic Plan: Work More, Make Less
Mitt Romney's economic plan basically says if you make $22.50 an hour with benefits, you make too much money; and if you make $22.5 million, then you pay too much in taxes.
Opinion: Empty Chair Day 2012 and #Eastwooding

Saying Goodbye to Summer This Labor Day Weekend
Morning stratus and low level fog is making for a hazy morning across the region…with more clouds west and southeast. Any Morning clouds will give way to increasing afternoon sunshine. SW winds with warm air aloft, along with hazy sun will allow temps to climb to the mid-upper 80's inland, mid 80's coast with 70's on the Cape.
Summer vs. Fall: The Pros And Cons Of Changing Seasons
Labor Day comes at a unique time of year. Caught between two seasons, we're left picking sides: do we try to Hold On To Summer or Embrace Fall?

Royal Rumble vs Bound For Glory Series
by, 06-29-2012 at 05:44 PM (4088 Views)
Hey guys Knox here hoping all is well with you folks. Lately I've been checking out TNA more and more and regardless of the ratings, I've found myself enjoying Impact Wrestling alot more and at the moment, I prefer it over Raw & Smackdown.
I wanted to talk about the revamped Bound For Glory Series and how it comes to the Royal Rumble. So far the most obvious comparison is the winner of the Royal Rumble and Bound For Glory Series gets to Mainevent their respective "Grand Daddy PPV" (Wrestlemania & Bound For Glory) for their respective World Title.
Now lets talk comparison. I'll start with The Royal Rumble.
Royal Rumble:
To be honest, I haven't been as into the Royal Rumble as of late. I just don't like the booking of it. I can't remember if it was this year or last year but when Hornswoggle & Cena cleared the ring for that 5 minute period it was horrible television. Hornswoggle in a Royal Rumble period is a joke to the guys in the back, the fans and the prestige of the PPV.
Past Few Winnners
Sheamus and Del Rio. I think Sheamus winning the Rumble was unpredictable for the simple fact that he was pumped up so hard to win it. All the announcers were calling it so I was predicting a swerve. That worked out well for me. I like Sheamus as a face or heel, seeing some new blood is cool. Del Rio winning it was a joke because everything for him happened too early. I just knew he would end up irrelevant because he was pushed way too fast.
Prestige of the PPV:
The prestige is still there. Its something that we all look forward to and I love the fact that it has offered some big time returns like Cena in 08' and others. Of course, I miss the days when Austin would win it like every year lol but maybe that's just me.
The Good Side:What WWE has in their favor is name value. Something TNA doesn't have. Whether its good or bad telelvision, people will still tune in to the WWE. So with that being said, the Royal Rumble is a PPV that people will breakdown and order and it will always be apart of "The Big 4" PPVs.
The Bad Side:
I always hated anytime the #27, 28, 29 or 30th spot wins it. Especially when Michael Cole say's "This man with standed 29 other individuals". No you didn't, it was 5 or 6 at the most. That would always kill it for me. The fact that someone can come in so late and win it.
I always loved how Chris Benoit & Shawn Michaels won it at #1 and throw Rey Mysterio in that list because he won it at #2 which is the same thing as #1. That shows that you've been through a fight and you really worked your butt off to deserve that spot.
Bound For Glory Series:
Right off the bat, I'll tell you what I love about this. I love the fact that its a series. I think it proves that you can't just be good on one night to win it all but you have to be consistent for months to be the guy that Mainevents the Big Dance. I love that concept.
The Bad Side:
I'd have to say its lack of name value. People aren't taking it serious unless they're a fan of TNA. Also, alot of the guys aren't given the same amount of matches.
The Good Side:
I love how they continue this series at House Shows. It shows how important it is. I also love the point system.What I would change?:I love how everything is being handled. But I would make it a time limit thing. At the end of the series I would make the winner whoever won their matches in the shortest amount of time combined. That's just a suggestion but none the less, I currently love the system they have now. I'm anxious to see who wins it this year. Definitely.
My pick for the BFG Series is Samoa Joe. I think this will be his time to step back in the mainevent. He's one of the greatest tweeners ever.
Thanks guys for checking out this blog. Hope you enjoyed. I appreciate all feedback. Thanks and be safe. Until then.
