To answer my own question, I don't know.
Now before anyone says I'm against it, let me tell you, I'm not. I have always been a fan of the draft and the brand extension in general, but to say I'm not frustrated would be a lie.

As I said in an earlier blog, the so-called 'Chosen One' has done nothing for ages. So what the hell happened? Well, everybody's thoughts have more or less been confirmed by PWInsider.com, who says he's in the doghouse.
However, there is hope for 'The Sinister Scotsman', as PWInsider also says that McIntyre's losing streak will culminate into a character

Re: Medicare/Medicaid coverage for Sub in Alabama?
Welcome to ODR Larry.
Each state has their own guidelines. A simple call to the issuing agency will help you answer your question. But then you'd have the issue of finding a sub doc that would accept it. You may be better off contacting Reckitt and see if a doc in your area has room for a gratis patient...they have a limited program.
While doing that, you may want to share some of your sits and see if folks could offer some advice or experience you may not have considered.
JayYou can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking that caused them in the first place.

To understand why Republican lawmakers are so skittish about voting for a proposed $500 million arena for the Milwaukee Bucks, all you need to do is this: Roll the clock back a few years.
Conservative groups, GOP candidates and the state Republican Party attacked a handful of outstate Democrats for voting for the 2009-'10 budget bill, which contained a $5 million state grant for the Bradley Center. About a quarter of those funds went to upgrade the Bucks' scoreboard.
"(Julie Lassa) voted to spend $5 million in borrowed money anyway, straight to a project 125 miles outside of her district that few of her constituents will ever see," wrote the head of the state GOP in a news release in Lassa's 2010 congressional bid.(226)

|Bits & Bytes New!
|Tranzistow Hot!
Tranzistow is not a commercial product but, although I didn't have any plans to sell it, I already sold a few copies to interested sound programmers/designers. So, if you want to buy it the price is 249.99 USD for the version without Additive+FM/GPU engine (both 32-bit and 64-bit versions are included into this price). The version with Additive+FM/GPU engine is not available to the public at the moment. You are allowed to install Tranzistow on a reasonable number of computers - there is no need to buy a separate license for each computer. By "reasonable" I mean a few computers you are using at home and/or in the studio, not computers in the classrooom, for example. At the above price - and taking into account the vast number of features and possibilities built into the engine, together with the highest possible sound quality - the Tranzistow is severely underpriced/undervalued! But I really don't intend to make a business out of all this and just wanted to give a chance to buy Tranzistow to anyone who find it useful in the current form, nothing else. Contact me by mail at the bottom of the page if interested ...
Tranzistow Demo Download [32/64-bit Windows version] (unzip into the VST folder and that's it)
Loading/saving patches is disabled in demo version but otherwise - it is fully functional and no other features are disabled or crippled.

Slips, trips and falls have the potential to be a major cause of injury for your employees and visitors to your premises. There is a common misconception that slip and fall injuries "just happen" and that there is little that can be done to prevent them.
The potential for slips, trips and falls can be widespread, but it is important to understand where, on your premises, the greatest potential for danger lies.
Some hazards associated with slip, trip and fall injuries include:
Creating a Safe Passage
Routine inspection and maintenance should be a regular part of your safety program to help prevent falls for both your visitors and employees.
Complete Reporting Can Aid in Prevention
In the event of an incident, be sure that it is documented and reported. This information can help prevent future incidents, and may be essential if a claim against the company is filed. A standard, printed incident report is helpful in ensuring that all details are recorded.
At Travelers, we understand the risks and provide strategies that our customers can implement to help prevent slips, trips and falls on their premises.

Baddeleyite was first described in 1892 from Sri Lanka, and Minas Gerais and Jacupiranga, São Paulo, Brazil. It was named after Joseph Baddeley, who described the occurrences in Sri Lanka.
Baddeleyete is often found as detrital grains in gravels. Its primary occurrence is in high temperature veins and in syenite, carbonatite, kimberlite, and lamproite intrusions. Because of their refractory nature and stability under diverse conditions, baddeleyete grains, along with zircon, are used for uranium-lead radiometric age determinations.

Toshiba's Tecra range is firmly targeted at business users, and the A11 is perhaps the most mainstream model in the range thanks to its 15.6-inch screen and Intel Core i5 processor.
Overall, the Toshiba Tecra A11 is a competent business laptop that offers good performance, a decent screen and an impressive range of ports. In saying that, the computer's chunky design and limited amount of RAM are a tad disappointing.

No. 4 Stanford women survive, beat Oregon St 67-60
STANFORD, Calif. Scott Rueck witnessed quite a transformation in his young team from one Bay Area game to the next.
Oregon State hung tough for nearly an entire game with No. 4 Stanford, which pulled out a hard-fought 67-60 victory on Saturday that preserved a 71-game home winning streak. Nnemkadi Ogwumike had 33 points and 16 rebounds for the Cardinal to go over both 2,000 points and 1,000 boards for her career.
"What a great game. Stanford is who they are," Rueck said. "They finished this game the way champions finish games."
The Beavers, who won only two conference games last season and fell 73-56 at California on Thursday, allowed a decisive 19-3 run that started midway through the second half. They lost for the fourth time in five games after starting 9-1 under second-year coach Rueck.
Yet there were strides to be celebrated after pushing one of the nation's storied programs to crunch time.
"The whole game really helped us," Rueck said. "We're such a new program, second-year coach, you need experience to find out who you are. You look at a Stanford program with a strong foundation. We're still figuring those things out.
"The other night (Cal's) athleticism rattled us. We were on our heels all night and it felt ugly. Today, it's, `I'm going to come out and not be scared.'"
Chiney Ogwumike added 20 points and 10 rebounds for the cold-shooting Cardinal (13-1, 4-0 Pac-12), scoring 10 of her points during a 12-4 spurt to open the second half of one of their toughest conference games in recent memory.
Ali Gibson scored 16 points for scrappy Oregon State (10-5, 1-3), which worked hard on both ends of the floor the entire way and gave Stanford one of its biggest challenges since a 68-58 loss at No. 2 Connecticut on Nov. 21. It hardly mattered the Beavers own an 0-26 record on the Cardinal's home floor and have now dropped 24 straight in the series. Stanford leads 48-6 overall.
Earlysia Marchbanks tied the game with 11:39 left and Mollee Schwegler's jumper the next time down put the Beavers ahead with 10:51 remaining. Lindy La Rocque answered with a 3-pointer for Stanford with 9:57 to go and Toni Kokenis made a driving layin at 9:38 for a 51-46 lead. Stanford widened the gap on the way to its 10th straight victory since the loss at UConn.
"I think this is a wakeup call for our team," Hall of Fame Stanford coach Tara VanDerveer said. "Our team needs to get the memo that teams are going to be aggressive. People want a banner like we have a couple of them."
At halftime, Oregon State certainly appeared poised for one of the biggest upsets of the season. The Beavers aggressively drove to the basket for easy points and made 15 of 23 first-half shots for 65.2 percent - their best for a half all season - to the struggling Cardinal's 36.4 (12 for 33). Oregon State hadn't shot better than 36.8 overall its previous three games.

Sorry if this has already been addressed. I am sure you know the challenges of finding things now a days. So when is the new serial number released and where does one find it?
And, by the way. Does it really make sense to provide serial numbers that expire on t he weekend?

The District of Dibër (Rrethi i Dibrës) (Дистрикт Дебар)is one of the thirty-six districts of Albania. It has a population of 86,000 (2004 estimate), and an area of 761 km². It is in the north-east of the country, and its capital is Peshkopi.
Dibber (Diber) is one of the most historically know city for it resistance against Turks. Today's Diber is divided in two which half of it lays in Macedonia and the rest in Albania. This division was done as a result of former Yugoslavian proclaiming land that they never owned to the international community in London in 1913, where the biggest part of Albania was left out of its borders.
Diber has been the battlefield of Turkish and other Balkan wars for centuries. Its river Drini I ZI was colored in red blood several times which gives the name to the river Drini I ZI meaning (black river) to pay tribute to those who have fallen during the wars for centuries. Diber has a lot interesting place to visit such as the 7 lakes of lura; the Drin valley gives the most pleasant nature with several hills and fields laying on over and over each other as you move on. Diber is the place where the Kastriot town lays, where the king of Albania George Kastrioti was born and returned after the Turkish escaping to Diber.

Originally written on Fox Sports Arizona | Last updated 1/24/13
Well, the Arizona Diamondbacks are getting what they wanted: a team full of gritty dirtballs. Theyve traded center fielder Chris Young, right-hander Trevor Bauer and right fielder Justin Upton, all for questionable returns. Now lets see if they can win a World Series with their curious emphasis on toughness over talent. Why even move Upton? That has been the question ever since the Diamondbacks started trying to trade him in November 2010. Why were the D-backs willing to move a gifted young outfielder who was signed to an affordable long-term contract? We have our answer now that Upton is headed to the Atlanta Braves in a seven-player trade. The answer actually is quite clear, no matter how the D-backs might try to spin this. Their actions this offseason and not just with Upton speak louder than any words. The Diamondbacks want a certain type of player single-minded, outwardly intense, fierce. Cody Ross is that kind of player. Martin Prado is that kind of player. Upton is no...

1 Introduction New genomic1 discoveries and technologies are shifting the focus from testing for specific and rare genetic disorders to using genetic testing to pre- dict risk of common diseases and help determine prevention and treatment options. Advances in genetics are contributing to improved understanding of the genetic and molecular basis of disease and are increasingly lead- ing to the development of interventions such as gene-based therapy and pharmacogenomics. The integration of advances from genetics into the health care system is marked by three major trends. First, information previously handled by medical geneticists and a few specialists is moving into the arena of other medical specialties and primary care. As this transition is made, it will be necessary to deal with associated barriers and challenges. Second, genetic information that has historically been used as an end point will increasingly have the potential to be used to improve health care outcomes. Such a shift requires providers and patients to think about using genetic information in a different way, one more similar to how other health care data are used. Finally, there is a shift from dealing with a limited amount of information to being confronted with a great deal of information. In the past, there may 1 "Genomics" is the study of the entire human genome—the actions of single genes and the interactions of multiple genes with each other and with the environment, whereas "genetics" is the study of single genes and their functions and effects (IOM, 2003a). However, presenters did not agree in advance to these definitions, so not every presenter refers to these terms in the same way.
OCR for page 1
INNOVATIONS IN SERVICE DELIVERY IN THE AGE OF GENOMICS have been concern about what was unknown; now the concern is about managing the information that is available. The current system for delivering genetic services is based on a model of intensive counseling for rare diseases. As the use of genomic technology becomes more prevalent, providers and patients will need new ways of com- municating about genetic information and how it may change health care options. Old practice models that rely on extensive education and counsel- ing may not be suitable when patients and payers demand the inclusion of genomic information in making everyday health care decisions. New practice models of service delivery will have to be developed to contend with the rising tide of genomic innovations. The Roundtable on Translating Genomic-Based Research for Health was established by the Institute of Medicine (IOM) in 2007 to provide a structured opportunity for dialogue and discussion of issues related to the translation of genomic information for use in maintaining and improving health. At its second meeting, following a workshop that focused on the diffusion of genomic innovations, the Roundtable identified the need for a public workshop that would feature presentations and discussion of strate- gies regarding service delivery in the age of genomics, seeking to understand the current status of service delivery, how needs will change as genomic innovation progresses, and what types of alternative practice models will be needed. The July 28, 2008, workshop was moderated by Wylie Burke, chair of the Roundtable. Presentations followed by discussion occurred in four areas: the current status of genetic service delivery, strengths and challenges of the current system, new models for service delivery, and a vision for the future. Following these presentations, a panel of workshop speakers and participants brainstormed about a service delivery model for the future. The workshop did not address the ethical or legal considerations surrounding genomic innovations and the various new models of service delivery, includ- ing direct-to-consumer marketing of genetic tests. The meeting concluded with a summary of the day's discussions. The complete agenda can be found in Appendix A, and biographical sketches of the speakers are provided in Appendix B. The following report summarizes speaker presentations and discus- sions. Any conclusions reported should not be construed as reflecting a group consensus; rather, they are the statements and opinions of the pre- senters and participants.

SHROUD-VISITORS May 24-2010 (400 words) xxxi
Shroud exposition closes with more than 2 million visits
Pilgrims view the Shroud of Turin on display at the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist in Turin April 26. (CNS/Paul Haring)
By Sarah Delaney
Catholic News Service
VATICAN CITY (CNS) -- With the Shroud of Turin now carefully put away, church officials said that more than 2 million pilgrims had come to venerate the linen cloth in the six weeks it was on display.
During the April 10 to May 23 exposition, officials said 2,113,128 people from around the world passed through the Turin cathedral to catch a glimpse or say prayer before the cloth revered by many Christians as the shroud that covered the body of the crucified Christ.
In a news conference May 22 marking the closing of the exposition, Cardinal Severino Poletto of Turin said that he was pleased with the record number of people who came to see the cloth.
"I had the clear perception that the Lord was speaking to the hearts of the pilgrims who came before the shroud seeking answers," he said.
The shroud "gives us the chance to offer faith in a time of confusion and spiritual fog, reconciling in the word of God," the cardinal said.
Cardinal Poletto also said in an interview with Vatican Radio May 22 that at the exposition pilgrims are given the chance to "contemplate the suffering of Christ, of which the shroud is a mirror, both wonderful and precisely what the Gospel tells us."
Pope Benedict XVI went to Turin May 2 to venerate the shroud and celebrate a public Mass. He called the shroud an "extraordinary icon" that had been "written with blood: the blood of a man flagellated, crowned with thorns, crucified and wounded on his right side," exactly as the Gospels say Jesus was.
The pope said that the shroud was a symbol of the resurrection of Christ, and that "in it we see reflections of our suffering in the suffering of Christ."
The Vatican has never said that the shroud, a 14-foot long linen cloth marked by a shadowy image of a man, is actually the burial cloth of Jesus Christ, although many Christians believe it is.
The shroud has been the object of several multidisciplinary scientific analyses, but its exact nature and age remain mysteries. Carbon-14 dating performed on a tiny piece of cloth in 1998 showed that the cloth probably came from medieval times, but some scientists have called that evaluation into question.
The shroud, kept in a special case filled with inert gas to prevent alterations, usually is out of public view in the left transept of the Turin cathedral.

That's hot!
I am having problems with Blogger too. It often won't load photographs in the afternoon but lately I've had issues with the early mornings as well.
You're doing well to keep your vegies going in the heat. I'm busily freezing water to put into chook bowls on really hot days.

Wow you have it hot there! We came out of our 0 F degree cold spell and now it has been up above freezing for several days but still below freezing at night.
Your tomatoes must have done good even with the high temperatures. I am thinking more and more about warm weather and will rebuild the hot bed, kind of a glass covered place to start plants. It is too muddy to get in the garden now so I have been storing manure in the dry over at the stable. The horse probably wonders what is going on with it piled up so high along his stall.
Hope you cool off a little, blow a little heat this way!

I don't envy you at all! Our really hot spell is over and it's much more pleasant in this neck of the woods right now.
Lots of water ice blocks and our 5 litre water bottles filled with icy water for drinking got us through (and stopped the kids getting into the fridge all day!)

Wow that is unbelievably hot Tania! 40 was as hot as I could tolerate recently. It is amazing that your veggies survive at all. I haven't had any problems with Blogger as yet. Hope it comes good for you soon as I love seeing your photos.

Goodness Tania 49 is just too hot. I thought it was going to be bad in Melbourne today with 43. It often gets to 46 in the summer at my mum's place in Western Australia in the but they've never had 49 that I know of. I do hope your veges survive these hot spells you are experiencing. Who cares if the coverings aren't attractive, saving all those plants you've put so much into is worth it. I hope you can be as cool as you can get.
Take care,
Anne xx

Wow! That temperature is incredible. The second batch of it too. You have my sympathy. I hope you have a plentiful supply of water.
It is wet and cool here. Light drizzly rain mostly, but constant. Impossible to dry anything unless I use an air-conditioner or a clothes dryer.
The monsoon has a lot to answer for this season.

Holy Smoke, that's hot! I would not be able to function in that heat - you must be very grateful that inside is only 29oC.
Your poor veggies too...

Omg compared to you we are having a slight rise in temp! Stay cool we have a total fire ban declared for tomorrow so here's hoping no idiots start any fires.

I was thinking of you today Tania when I heard the temperatures for SA. I hope it's cooling down a bit at night.

Hi Tania,
I was having major problems getting pics to publish last week up at the farm too, maybe Blogger just doesn't like the heat. Gee I hope it cools down a bit for you over there, and it runs out of steam before it hits us,I just don't cope well with it any more. Vegies look good considering the heat. Try and keep cool,
Cheers Jane.

If it was that hot here, it would be a national emergency and the government would be running around opening "chilling centers" for the homeless.
I don't see how you survive. We are expecting snow tonight and again Friday.

I will take some of that heat off your hands. Your 114 F and my 39F makes an average of about 77F. That sounds good to me.
Your plant cover is doing the right thing so it is not unsightly, just some working sheets. (or something)

Yes still here Harry. Never before in my lifetime have I experienced heat like we have just had. It broke records, and we still have a bush fire burning nearby. Hopefully we will get some rain this weekend to put the fire out. Garden has survived, but this is the last year I will be growing veggies...
I will be doing another post soon :)

Are you all still alive? I dread I will see a news article about an Australian family found all desiccated and mummified from the heat there. Wish you were here, it's been single digits and hideous snow on and off for three weeks now.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by nadiak Amazing jeans...perfect fit I just got these in the mail today, and it was like Christmas in June!!!! They are soft, true to size (I am 5"6' 135lbs and the 27 fits like a glove) they are bit long...bit I won't have to take more than an inch off of the length, they have a raw edge so trimming will be a simple job...I will be able to wear flat or wedge sandals with these. So cute!!! 6.15.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by RhondaW Super Sexy Super sexy jeans.... 4.29.2013
Rated 3 out of 5Â by p1gp3n too long this basically fits tts at the waist, but a tad loose in the thighs. the material is soft and the colors and patterned patches are as pictured. however the length is a deal breaker on this one. I'm 5'3" and I'm used to having to hem these elephant jeans. but since there's a patterned patch right at the back of the left leg, hemming it would make the patch incredibly short and hence take away from the look. if I were to keep these, I'd have to live with wearing giant heels with them. it'd have been great if these came in different lengths. 4.9.2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by ydm425 Great Funky pair of jeans! The only thing negative I have to say about these is that they are SSOOO long, like most FP jeans. The fabric is very soft, fit is true to size and the contrast of patchwork makes these very unique. Luckily the hem is frayed and you can easily cut the hem and fray them yourself. By doing this it will not take away from the look of the jeans. 4.3.2013

LETTER: The Affordable Care Act's unintended consequences
To the Editor:
Obamacare gets into high gear this year, so let me share two stories regarding the effects of the individual mandate that you won't hear on the news channels.
I have two daughters who are both married with young children and work part time with their husbands being the breadwinners in the family. The younger one's family was covered by a private family plan through BCBS, which they were happy with. Now, however, through the exchange, the cheapest plan offered by BCBS is still more than $200 more per month than the old plan, even after a small subsidy, and the plan paled in comparison to their old plan. They decided to go without coverage. Their reasoning was that it was not worth paying a premium that doesn't cover anything until after the high deductibles. The only other carrier in North Carolina, Coventry, had optional plans, but not all of their doctors participate.
My older daughter, who has family coverage through her husband's employer, has a different story to tell. Her old plan was a platinum plan. She received her new insurance cards last week and to her surprise and angst, her coverage now is an inferior plan. No more co-pays, no reduced-rate prescriptions. It is bare bones catastrophic insurance (at least to her) for the same cost they were paying last year for a premium plan. In fact, she called me today to tell me that a prescription she has for psoriasis that last year cost her $50 (Tier 4) now costs her $750! Sadly, their stories are not unique.
An unintended consequence of the Affordable Care Act is the pain and anger it brings to me, knowing that my children and grandchildren will not enjoy even close to the same benefits I enjoyed in my lifetime. There's a part of me that wants to live long enough to see my grandchildren grow up and hopefully enjoy life. But as I enter my seventh decade on this earth and witness the direction our country is taking, I think maybe I don't want to stick around to see what happens.

Author(s): STP Statistical Literacy Taskforce 2012
Description: The Taskforce created two sets of statistical literacy standards: one for Introductory Psychology at both the high school and college levels and one for undergraduates majoring in basic and applied psychological science. In addition they created a 40-page annotated list of resources that provides examples of the kinds of resources that might be useful for instructors who want to implement the learning goals. Those resources are organized around the topics of general statistical literacy issues, general teaching resources, specific activities and assignments, technology, assessment, websites with more general resources, and ethics/research methods.
Introduction to narration (Word)Why Does Johnny Trantrum (PowerPoint)
Author: Ennio Cipani
Affiliation: National University
Description: The PowerPoint file provides an introductory narrated presentation (under 8 min.) on a functional behavioral perspective on human behavior, especially explaining why challenging problem behaviors occur. Dr. Cipani contrasts this approach to understanding human behavior with a more traditional approach. The Word document suggests how to use the narration to stimulate class discussion.

He studied a correspondence course produced by the well known German graphologist Hans Busse (who incidentally translated Crepieux-Jamin's work into German) and was very familiar with the work of Ludwig Klages. Around 1900 he studied at the Universities of Prague, Leipzig and the Sorbonne. From 1903-1909 he authored plays, essays, epigrams and novels. From 1914-1918 it is reported that he ran an intelligence bureau in The Hague during WW1.
In 1918 Saudek entered the diplomatic service for the Czechoslovakian Government, in Holland and in England. The family settled in The Hague, Holland in that year. The family moved away from the Hague in 1922; they moved to Berlin until 1924. In 1924 Saudek moved to London where he was correspondent to the Prague Presse Newspaper and established a profitable graphological practice.
In 1918 he authored a novel with a graphological plot, Diplomats, which was published in German, Czech, Dutch, French and Italian (1921). In the 1920s he began the Bulletin of the Dutch Association for Scientific Graphology (Nederlands Tijdschrift Voor Graphologie. Orgaan Van De Vereeniging Voor Wetenschappelijke Grafologie). In 1963 this became Acta Graphologica.
In 1925 Unwin published Psychology of Handwriting; it also appeared in Dutch, German, Danish, and Swedish. Saudek supplemented his income by drawing rents from two large properties in Berlin. He also gave lectures, notably one was to the British Psychological Society, Medical section on 21 October 1926, which became an article (see Saudek 1927). He also made radio broadcasts with the BBC; one such broadcast took place on 7 September 1927.
His next book was Experimental Graphology which appeared in German, Czech and Dutch in 1926. Saudek lectured on experimental graphology at Berlin, Amsterdam, Brussels and Prague from 1926-1928.
The book Experiments in Handwriting was published in London in 1928. Possibly related to the book and his lecture tour initiatives, Saudek was awarded a PhD in Brussels, Belgium in the same year. This now meant that he was able to use the title Dr Saudek.
Another book followed in 1932, "What Your Handwriting Shows" -- a shorter, more popular-style book than the others. Then in 1933 Anonymous Letters was published, this concentrated on the criminological aspects of handwriting analysis work.
His death certificate shows that he died at 20 Devonshire Place in London, which was probably a private hospital in 1935. The cause of death was shown as: (a) Septicaemia; (b) Haemorhage (c) Chronic duodenal Ulcer.
His papers are in Senate House Library, University of London (see links).

"A masterpiece... the best horror movie to come by in years" - Film Threat
"Spectacular... capable of playing to an art house crowd and diehard horror fans" - Dread Central
Set in an alternate reality where Jason Voorhees, Freddy Krueger, Mike Myers and all the great slasher icons of yore are real, actual people Scott Glosserman's debut feature Behind the Mask introduces a new icon to the mix: Leslie Vernon. A troubled soul with a horrific past Vernon is in training to join the ranks of the great slasher villains. His mythology is in place, the setting is chosen, the target has been selected. Vernon lacks only one thing: publicity. And so the aspiring mass murderer invites a documentary crew to visit him and chronicle his training regimen, the night of his assault and, ultimately, the rise of his legend.
Behind the Mask begins as a viciously smart deconstruction of the slasher film, a nuts and bolts breakdown of the formula that made the genre in the first place, all presented to the audience by Leslie Vernon, a friendly, funny, eminently likable young man who just so happens to want to kill people. But as the film progresses it slowly warps and mutates until it ceases to be a meta-film about slasher films and becomes a ripping slasher picture itself. In Leslie Vernon writer-director Glosserman has created such a strong, iconic character that by the time Robert Englund -- that's the real life Freddy Krueger, for you neophytes -- turns up, he's just icing on the cake. - Todd Brown

20-minute presentation before BIE on Nov 27 will be last opportunity.
Shaikh Ahmed bin Saeed chairing the Dubai Expo 2020 Higher Committee meeting . — Supplied photo
The Dubai Expo 2020 Higher Committee meeting, chaired by Shaikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, President of the Dubai Civil Aviation Authority and Chairman and Chief Executive of Emirates Airline & Group, on Thursday reviewed preparations for the final 20-minute presentation that will take place during the 154th Bureau International des Exhibitions (BIE) General Assembly in Paris on November 27.
This is the last opportunity for candidate cities to make their case to the 168 voting nations of the BIE.
Members of the Higher Committee stressed the importance of continuing the hard work right through the final vote. The bid for World Expo 2020 is highly contested and the competition is fierce. They acknowledged the outpouring of support that Dubai's bid has received from every segment of the community in the UAE, and from around the globe which continues to differentiate Dubai Expo 2020 bid.
Following presentations from all candidate cities, the 168 member nations of the BIE will make their final decision as to who should host the World Expo 2020 in a closed room. Rounds of voting will take place and the candidate with the least amount of votes will be eliminated after each round.
The process to reach a final decision on the host nation is expected to take approximately three hours. With just 14 days left for the final vote, the Higher Committee thanked the people of the UAE for the overwhelming and unprecedented support that left a lasting impression on the BIE delegates during the recently held Theme Symposium.
It is hoped the success of the Theme Symposium, which took place on October 22-24 and saw more than 250 BIE delegates and country representatives travel to the UAE, has secured further support for the Dubai's Expo 2020 bid and the unique opportunities that it would offer.
In attendance were Mohammed Ibrahim Al Shaibani, Director-General of the Dubai Ruler's Court, who serves as Deputy Chairman of the committee; Reem Ibrahim Al Hashemi, Minister of State and the committee's Managing Director; Mattar Mohammed Al Tayer, Chairman of the Roads and Transport Authority; Hussain Nasser Lootah, Director-General of Dubai Municipality; Helal Saeed Al Marri, Director-General of the Dubai Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing and CEO of Dubai World Trade Centre; and Major-General Khamis Mattar Al Mazeina, Deputy Commander-in-Chief of Dubai Police.

Public to have their say on cable car development on Mt Wellington
- From: Mercury
- August 03, 2014
TASMANIANS will get their first real say on a cable car proposal for Hobart's Mt Wellington with the public being invited to comment on possible rule changes for development at the Pinnacle.
The Wellington Park Management Trust is asking for public comment on a proposal to extend the development zone on the mountain by 11,1000sq m.
Cable car proponent Adrian Bold has sought the zone extension which would allow a function centre and landing area, to be built east of, and under, the existing observation deck and visitor centre on the mountain.
It will be the first time the public has been able to have a meaningful say on Mr Bold's proposal.
The community input comes as the mountain has been blanketed for the past few days with snow, sparking calls once again for the establishment of alternative ways for people to access the mountain.
Mr Bold had originally wanted the Hobart City Council, as landowners, to say whether they agreed to the Pinnacle rezoning before he sought the extension from the trust.
But, the council – after much heated debate over the controversial issue – said it was up to the trust to decide first.
Mr Bold said yesterday the public consultation was a step in the right direction.
"This is a chance for anyone and everyone to have their say and we encourage people to participate in the process," he said.
Mr Bold said the rezoning would allow for his team to put forward the best design possible in the most appropriate location.
"We are doing this to minimise the visual impact on the skyline," he said.
But Residents Opposed to the Cable Car spokesman Ted Cutlan said the push by the trust for the public consultation should be a concern to everyone "with a love of our wonderful mountain".
"The proposed increase in the size of the Pinnacle Specific Area announced today has come directly as the result of a request by the developer," Mr Cutlan said yesterday.
"Why is the Management Plan being changed to suit this development?
"Surely any proposal for the mountain should be designed to comply with the plan.
"What is the point of the plan at all, if it is changed to suit a developer whenever a request is made by a developer?"
Hobart Lord Mayor Damon Thomas said the public consultation was "exactly what the council had asked the applicant and the trust to do".
"This is a very positive and appropriate step being taken by the trust," he said.
"The project is out there and it needs to be tested by the process and this is part of the process."

I fully support the cable car with visitor centre, cafe and weather protected viewing. There are many cable cars around the world and they are well supported. Let's get this thing up and running immediately.
Cary Lenehan of Lutana Posted at 1:17 PM August 14, 2014
A (small and unobtrusive) cafe or restaurant would be a boon up there. As for a cable car, if there are small cars (8 or less) and small towers and terminals then it will not be too bad. Great big cars (like the new ones in Hong Kong) would be a blot on the landscape that would be unforgivable. Of course it is likely that the wind will stop it operating for a lot of the year and when do we see an economic feasibility study that accounts for such factors? Will the road remain open as well?
Merrydith Callegari of Lenah Valley Posted at 7:42 PM August 13, 2014
I think our mountain desperately needs facilities at the summit. When we take overseas visitors up there they always wish there was somewhere to sit and have a drink or a meal and enjoy the amazing view. In Italy many mountains have cablecars and it's the best thing for the mountain.

"You Gotta Be Kidding!"
by Mickey Charles, CEO Sports Network
It wasn't pretty. As a matter of fact, it was
downright ugly. The term "Fall Classic" turned into the greatest misnomer in
grammatical and definitive history. Manipulative managerial magic was
nowhere to be seen, unless you included putting an umbrella into every cubicle
on the bat rack. There were no dynamic double plays, scintillating steals of
second base, and yearning for the safety and warmth of Tropicana Field was the
order of the night.
Doesn't Major League Baseball know why we have weather reports? When there is
a tsunami in the forecast you do not plan to go fishing or surfing, much less
swimming. Bud Selig, MLB Commissioner and never an applicant or nominee for a
Pulitzer Prize for literary achievement, was heard to say, "I have to use my
judgment" when Game 5 of the World Series between the Philadelphia Phillies
and Tampa Bay Rays was finally brought to a welcome, compassionate, and
appreciative halt. Nothing gets past the Commish!!! Duh!!!
The game never should have been begun. It was idiocy. Mental incompetence,
monetarily motivated, driven by people devoid of common sense. That was not
construction work going on in the parking lot, and the man with the long
flowing white beard, holding a staff, wearing a white robe and motioning to
the animals was building an ark! When you see cars being parked and drivers
placing pontoons under their wheels, there is a message being sent. Folks
rowing up to the entry gates and disembarking wearing life vests and carrying
buoys are trying to warn of impending flood conditions.
Running around the bases wearing flippers and hydroplaning seems to indicate
that the rain is coming down a bit hard. Chasing down a ground ball and
leaping over puddles in the infield to avoid drowning indicates, clearly, that
something is wrong with this picture. When was the last time you saw
everyone, at bat and in the field, wearing earmuffs and gloves? Probably the
last time you visited Alaska to attend the Iditarod, over 1,150 miles long,
the last great race on Earth, equal to what might be the worst game in World
Series history.
How much coffee, beer, or other liquids could Selig and his staff absorb to
make them totally oblivious to the fiasco that Mother Nature had opted to send
It was ugly. It was a game that never should have been begun.
The prayers of the hierarchy of the sport were answered when the Rays tied the
game in the top of the sixth. B.J. Upton needed water skis to get to second
and position himself to be in place with the tying run. Any more speed heading
down there, and he might have slid all the way into the field boxes along the
third base line. Meanwhile, weather aside (but how can one really say that?),
Scott Kazmir had to contend with plate umpire Jeff Kellogg, who decided to
make Kazmir's particular strike zone sort of like threading a needle that was
being held but also moved from side to side. A near impossible task, a huge
disadvantage and one of the maladroit misgivings of the umpires that are
blindly discounted as "part of the game" by MLB. These guys are not bad, they
are awful!!!
Weather, ineptitude behind the plate and on the field for most of the Series
and then Bob Dupuy, baseball's president and CEO, has the effrontery to come
out and say that he would have suspended the game even if Tampa Bay had not
scored and tied it up. Sure!!! We will never really know, and can only
conjecture but that occurrence was a prayer answered for him, Selig and others
that might have contributed to the decision.
Upton, Carlos Pena and Evan Longoria awoke just in time to make this
interesting, although Upton had been doing all he could in each game to help
his team, while Pena and Longoria decided that an early exit was their fate.
Something changed their minds and now we have a continuance slated for this
evening while the snows fall in Philadelphia. My guess is that Selig probably
thinks it is confetti misplaced for an early celebration in Philadelphia.
To cap things off, the Rays checked out of their hotel yesterday and had no
place to sleep until someone on staff found accommodations in Delaware. Nice
move, but it goes with the script to date.
Baseball blew it!!! They blew it big time. This Series is as far from a
Classic as Earth is from the Sun. It will be remembered as the AquaGame or,
given what is likely, the Snow Series.
Wet and downright dangerous, windy and blowing pop-ups and fly balls all over
the place, cold enough so that the clubhouse staff had to put small blankets
on all of the champagne bottles because they were shaking and shivering, and
there is a bottom of the sixth scheduled with two more games to go if the Rays
Selig said he would stay here until Thanksgiving if he had to but he might
have meant Halloween and getting part-time work on someone's front lawn or
heading off to see the Wizard of Oz for the obvious. His actions [lack of
them] gave him high priority to do either, or both. Should they play again in
this weather? You gotta be kidding!!!

Mi amigo Coogan started his own denim line, Handsome Man Jeans, and I've been shooting them for his Official Brand promotion(z). He makes every pair by hand from locally-sourced selvage denim and can even customize the back-pocket designs for ya. (Maybe I can finally get a pair of pants that has "Ass Butt" scrawled across the back!)
The model this time around was customer Sebastian, whose Nikes I quite liked and so I took half the pictures of them. They just looked so awesome with the jeans! I'm still kind of in awe that Coogan actually handmade these suckers - this pair may look a little weird in the pics because the denim is inside out, whoa. For more information, check out the link to his blog above, or email him at coogan[dot]brennan[at]gmail[dot]com!

What is better - eternal bliss or a simple bread?
Posted 17 March 2011 - 03:42 PM
nothing beats bliss
bread beats nothing
bliss beats bread
It's TOTALLY flawed, but it created the opportunity to figure out hand signs for bread,nothing and bliss, so I'll stand by it.

Posted 16 April 2011 - 11:31 PM
What is "Eternal Bliss"?
eternal: without beginning or end, lasting forever (dictionary.com)
bliss: supreme happiness, utter joy or contentment (dictionary.com)
1. So we can say that bread is in fact better than eternal bliss because in our most basic nature we require food to survive. how can we have eternal bliss if we do not have the means to stay alive and enjoy it?
2. Or we can say that bread isn't better than eternal bliss due to the fact that eternal bliss would last forever whereas bread is only temporary due to spoiling or eating.
3. But if you really think about it, we should be treating the bread and eternal bliss as equals. bread may not last long but it sustains us while we have it and if we feel sustained then we are content. if we continue to be sustained then we continue to have bliss. the two go hand in hand. eternal bliss cannot exist without the bread, and the bread cannot exist without the want of eternal bliss (the more bread we have the longer we are blissful essentially which could easily lead to "eternal" bliss).

eternal bliss is the best, therefore x=infinity
bread is just... bread, so y=1
nothing is better than eternal bliss, therefore, Ø>x
bread is better than nothing, so y>0
then, they say that because bread is better than nothing, and nothing is better than eternal bliss, y>x
this is not true because they are assuming that Ø=0, which it doesn't

Posted 29 August 2011 - 09:28 PM
The first nothing means 'absolutely anything imaginable'. This is the 'nothing' that is eternal bliss, if such a thing existed, would arguably be 'better than'. But a slice of bread is certainly not better than nothing in the sense of 'absolutely anything imagainable', now is it?
The other 'nothing' means 'not anything at all' and this is the nothing that having a slice of bread is better than. But having a slice of bread is hardly better than having 'absolutely anything imaginable', now is it? Watch the way you use words!

One is nothing = thin air
and the other is nothing = no thing in existence.
So, it is not saying "there is no thing in existence that bread is not better than", it is saying: "If all you have is nothing, it is better to have some bread" (extension of that is: in any other case, screw bread, I'm getting pizza.)
You can't define things in two different ways, and then try to amalgamate it into one logical argument cos it quickly becomes a logical fallacy (shades of "Klue""Master")

ORLANDO, Fla. — A third band member charged with the hazing death of a Florida A&M drum major pleaded no contest Tuesday and agreed to testify against the remaining 11 defendants.
SEE ALSO: Robert Champion: 12 Charged With Manslaughter In FAMU Drum Major Death
Caleb Jackson, 24, pleaded no contest to manslaughter and felony hazing. By pleading no contest, Jackson does not admit guilt but acknowledges prosecutors have enough evidence to convict him.
Jackson will be sentenced in the fall after giving testimony to prosecutors about what happened to drum major Robert Champion as he walked down a gauntlet of other band members who beat him with fists and mallets on a bus parked outside an Orlando hotel in November 2011. Champion collapsed and later died.
SEE ALSO: FAMU: We Are NOT Responsible For Robert Champion's Death
Circuit Judge Marc Lubet warned Jackson that he could face a maximum of 35 years in prison if he changed his mind and didn't cooperate.
Want to Keep Up With NewsOne.com? LIKE Us On Facebook!
"If you fully cooperate and continue to work with the state … you may very well come out pretty good," Lubet said. "If you don't, you may very well come out really bad."
Jackson answered only "yes, sir" and "no, sir" to a series of questions from the judge about whether he was entering the plea without coercion and whether he was aware he will be able to appeal any sentence.
SEE ALSO: Defendant: Robert Champion Wanted To Be Hazed
Attorney Chuck Hobbs had said last week that Jackson would plead guilty. But Hobbs said he instead decided that it would be in Jackson's best interest to plead no contest.
"What he will be able to provide is that he obviously was there, he had a very good view of what happened that night, and of who did what," Hobbs said.
No prosecutors showed up for Tuesday's hearing.

Grey's Anatomy Season 9, Episode 4 Spoiler Roundup: Cristina's Sex Friend, Derek's New Life
A brand new episode of Grey's Anatomy airs this week, and supposedly, the Kevin McKidd (Owen Hunt)-directed Season 9, Episode 4: "I Saw Her Standing There" (airing October 25) is a lot lighter and funnier than the emotionally heavy episodes we've seen so far this season. And who couldn't use a good elephantitis joke after the death of a loved one?
Here's a roundup of what to expect this Thursday.
"Hugely inflamed testicles." Yes, you read that correctly. Kevin says that the doctors at Seattle Grace-Mercy West will be dealing with a crazy new case. A patient comes in with a severe case of enlarged anatomy, which will surely fuel enough humor to keep us (and the docs) laughing throughout the episode.
April and Jackson are doin' it. In the hospital! In this preview, April (Sarah Drew) and Jackson (Jesse Williams) are not only having sex, but they're having lots of it, and while they're at work. They can't keep their hands off of each other, these two. So much for that whole de-virginization plan!
Catherine Avery is back. According to the ABC press release, "Richard [James Pickens Jr.] calls on Dr. Catherine Avery to help him perform a complicated procedure." Hmm... could he be calling on her for other, more salacious reasons as well? Expect a face-off between Richard and Jackson, and watch a sneak peek of Catherine's arrival here.
Derek has a new job. In sneak peek photos, we see Derek (Patrick Dempsey) in his new role as a teacher. And he's smiling!
Meredith walks on eggshells. He may seem happy about his new job outside of the OR, but Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) worries that he's just in denial. Because of this, she decides not to talk about any of her surgeries around him, which will likely be awkward.
Calzona in trouble. Mean Arizona (Jessica Capshaw) isn't going away just because of one bonding moment with Callie (Sara Ramirez) in the shower last week. She's still giving Callie a hard timeabout her insensitivity, which actually seems non-existent.
Arizona's next step. Arizona will be shown her new prosthetic leg, but that doesn't mean she's going to like it.
Cristina has a sex friend. Cristina (Sandra Oh) is getting frisky in Minnesota with a co-worker! Is it the sort-of-handsome Dr. Wilson, who told her to smile last week? And is she just doing this to get back at Owen for cheating on her, or does she actually like him?
For more Grey's spoilers, click here.
Catch the next new episode of Grey's Anatomy on Thursday, October 25 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.

With games like Fallout 3, Gears of War 2 and LittleBigPlanet highlighting my calendar, I wasn't sure if I was even going to be able to make time for Fable 2, the much-hyped sequel from Peter Molyneux's Lionhead Studios. I spent a few hours poking around the fictional land of Albion, and here's some mental notes I took.
– OK, I know that online co-op isn't available yet, so I can't speak to that. However, I'm trying to figure out if I'm annoyed or intrigued by the floating orbs. The orbs represent your friends playing the game online — all you have to do is interact with the orb and your buddies can jump into your game (or you into theirs). The problem is, they can sometimes be an eyesore. I had one of my "friends" practically floating over my face while I was trying to forge a sword for some extra cheddar. That sucked.
– If you've played God of War, then you'll have no issues slicing through people in Fable II's tweaked combat system. I built a female character dressed in crimson wearing an eyepatch, and there's something quite satisfying about mauling a group of bandits with some who looks like that. It's like the badass commander I made in Mass Effect with a scar over her eye who really didn't have any problems killing the last of an ancient alien race. I'll make sure my character falls somewhere in the "chaotic good" category, with some evil deeds mixed in. Let's see how that works.
– I need to play with the dog more. He's helped me find treasure, he's really easy to train, and I enjoy the fact that I have an unlimited supply of little rubber balls to play fetch with him. Just to be sure, I wanted to see what would happen if I tossed a ball (by mistake) over a cliff. The answer? Nothing. Nice to know that I can't kill my dog via raging stupidity.
– Albion is huge. Thank goodness for the shortcuts on the maps.
– I like Albion's general look, which was apparently inspired by forest scenery in martial arts movies. I always think adventure environments should carry a sense of wonder, and Albion has certainly done that.
– Maybe it's my self-diagnosed ADD kicking in, but I get really annoyed when a bunch of citizens start talking to me all at once. I'm one of those people that likes to listen to every conversation, mainly for fear of missing something important, if not entertaining.
– I could spend all day chopping wood and hammering steel to make money in the game. It's strangely addicting.
