i don't think so...we understand the matter differently..for me, as a chessplayer, you can only say that you have solve it if you were able to see the key move and presicely calculated all collateral variations arising from it.
and i guess you did not able to solve it coz you suggested 1.Kb2?
What a strangely rigid definition of 'solve' - I guess once you make a mistake it is impossible to solve it, even when you give the correct key and all variations. :)
.....and i guess bigdoggproblem had problem understanding what i posted.
what i said:
"for me, as a chessplayer, you can only say that you have solve it if you were able to see the key move and presicely calculated all collateral variations arising from it."
bigdoggproblem said:

I'm sad becoz he did not understand the line "precisely calculated all collateral variations".. How can you make a mistake if you are precise in your calculations huh???!!!!
I put it into an engine. Analysis says "#-3 (Mate in 3)"All the suggested variations to get out of it fail.
Looks like I will have to go a tad more slowly.
Let's start with: "give" and "calculate" don't mean the same thing. :)
So you are saying that we are supposed to calculate ALL the possible moves to "solve" a puzzle ?
Example : mate in one.
You did not "solve" it if you didn't see the five mating moves, and the fact that 1.Qb3 draws, according to your definition.
i guess you have to read and understand thoroughly what i have posted.. what i meant "calculate all the colateral variations".. these are the variations you have to calculate after you have given the key move..in order to prove that you have comppletely solved a puzzle, you have to analyze all variations that would arise depending on black's reply..
Which one, precisely, is not given in #19 ?
Yikes...moving on...
- not #19, but your comment in #11 which suggests 1.Kb2??? which according to you can give mate more reliable..the key move you suggested is wrong, thus follows the variations as well.
Her plan is to post a comment every one or two days so her topic comes in the "Most Recent Posts" section at different times of the day, hoping that she gets more viewers. Ignore it.
- well, honestly i dont have such plans in mind..i posted this puzzle to challenge evryone who viewed it if they can solve it,..and that is all. i dont consider it as an honor that this may be included every week as "most recent posts", i would rather prefer to achieve a higher rating by playing chess in this site to prove something- and that I call honor.
If I follow your reasoning :
1-None gave the full lines in the same post, except Irontiger.
2-Irontiger got the puzzle wrong at first.
3-Thus, the puzzle is not solved.
Do you see a problem ? No ?
1-None has managed to create a fire, except Gronk the cavesman who put together the idea of silex from Hurk the stone carver and the idea of hitting from Durk the hunter.
2-Gronk the cavesman failed when he first tried clay instead of silex.
3-Thus, fire has not being invented yet.
Now I understand Sharrocks (#32) was true, and I will follow is advice. It was a pretty puzzle, but your trolling ruins it all.
there were more variations in it..tnx for liking it.
I no longer give support to this site!

Thirty-two House Democrats are in tougher reelection races than they were when the lower chamber passed healthcare reform last fall.
The gloomier political climate for Democrats has made it more challenging for Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and her lieutenants to attract the 216 votes necessary to pass a health reform bill this month.
Meanwhile, the races of 15 Democrats have become tighter, increasing the chances the GOP could win them.
Of the 32 Democrats, 25 voted in favor of the House healthcare bill on Nov. 7.
Earlier this month, President Barack Obama said, "I don't know how [healthcare reform] plays politically, but I know it's right."
While Obama is not up for reelection this year, congressional Democrats are clearly weighing the political impact of their votes in the 2010 midterms.
The latest Gallup Poll found 48 percent opposed Obama's healthcare proposal.
Rep. Alan Mollohan (D-W.Va.), considered a heavy favorite to win his seat last fall when he voted yes, is now in a toss-up race. Mollohan has not said how he will vote this year.
The reelection races of Democratic Reps. Baron Hill (Ind.), Mark Schauer (Mich.), Dina Titus (Nev.), Carol Shea-Porter (N.H.) and Glenn Nye (Va.) have moved from the lean-Democratic column to tossup since November. Of these five Democrats, only Nye voted no last year.
David Wasserman of the Cook report noted that GOP candidate recruitment has intensified significantly from last November.
Only three Democrats who were deemed to be in competitive races in the fall have seen their reelection chances improve, according to the Cook report.
Rep. Bobby Bright (D-Ala.) has gone from being in a toss-up race to being in the lean-Democratic category. As Republicans have struggled in recruiting a top-notch candidate in North Carolina's 8th district, Rep. Larry Kissell (D-N.C.) has been upgraded from the lean-Democratic category to likely-Democrat. And Rep. Peter DeFazio (D-Ore.), who was being targeted by Republicans earlier this cycle, is now expected to cruise in his reelection bid.
Bright and Kissell, however, are firm "no"s on healthcare reform. They both opposed the House bill in 2009. Wasserman noted that Bright and Kissell do not toe the party line, adding that Bright is viewed as a nonpartisan legislator and Kissell has a reputation of being an outsider.
The Hill's whip list on healthcare has 37 Democrats planning to vote no or are likely to vote no. Thirteen of the 37 are not on Cook's House competitive race list. One of them, Rep. Marion Berry (Ark.), is retiring, and two other "no" votes, Reps. Artur Davis (Ala.) and Charlie Melancon (La.), are running for higher office.
The other 10 are Reps. Dan Boren (Okla.), Jerry Costello (Ill.), Luis Gutierrez (Ill.), Dennis Kucinich (Ohio), Daniel Lipinski (Ill.), Jim Matheson (Utah), Mike McIntyre (N.C.), Collin Peterson (Minn.), Bart Stupak (Mich.) and Gene Taylor (Miss.).
There are dozens of Democrats who are publicly undecided, according to The Hill's whip list, and more than half are in competitive reelection races.
Some Democrats looking over their shoulders, such as Reps. Alan Grayson (Fla.), Tim Walz (Minn.) and Bruce Braley (Iowa), are expected to vote yes.
Many non-incumbent Democrats running for Congress also are skeptical. The Hill last week reported that of the 26 leading Democratic House candidates, only one would commit to voting for the Senate healthcare bill if and when it comes to the House floor.

Swim with Killer Whales
Swim with Killer Whales / Orca – Tours to Norway
Swim with Killer Whales the world's most intelligent predator! Shane has swam with them in New Zealand and Norway, but we've not been so lucky to see them in the Hebrides!
However the place you can really have a good chance of swimming with them in is Norway.So this is your chance to swim with Killer Whales. Or we prefer to call them Orca. The Orca follow the southerly migration of herring into the coastal fjords. Exhibiting corralling behaviour to gorge themselves on the fish. We will timing our expedition with this migratory pattern using the previous few years sightings data.
Along with the Orca, there are chances to see the majestic Humpback, Sei and Fin whales, along with Sea Eagles, Otters, Seals and a variety of seabirds.
With it also being in a northerly latitude and in a active sun year, there are great chances of Aurora borealis or Northern Lights. Our base has very little light pollution and there are very good opportunities for stunning pictures. If you're a bit unsure Shane will be running an Aurora photography workshop!
It's all snorkel/swim encounters with the Orca, no scuba diving. So this means anyone can take part. Same skills/fitness required as to shark swimming, basically getting on/off the boat and a bit of finning to get a view of these amazing cetaceans. The weather can be challenging so the right equipment is a must, along with the right attitude. You don't be super swimmer/snorkeller but some fitness for an open water and waves environment is required.
Following successful trips in 2014 and 2015 we will be running the trip again in 2016. We have a large interested mailing list moving forward and these trip have very limited places. We don't take large groups or into mass numbers at all. This is a premium wildlife experience and in a challenging environment so we tailor the trips to be as such. We take 7 people maximum on each trip and the cost is approx £1950 with a reduction should the weather cancel some trips.
14th January – 21st January 2016 (7 nights – 6 days) – 2 sp remaining
21st January – 28th January 2016(7 nights – 6 days) – 3 sp remaining
See below for some pictures and video from 2015.
Contact us here to be added to the mailing list to register your interest for 2016 and beyond. Many Thanks.

Fresh images from 'Inside Llewyn Davis' put a different spin on orange and teal
After initially being something of a question mark on the schedule (remember when IMDb rather unconvincingly asserted that it was being released in February?), the Coen Brothers' "Inside Llewyn Davis" now seems to be falling into the prestige groove we expect for the directors' work these days. A high-profile premiere in Competition at Cannes is just around the corner, while last week, an awards-friendly release date of December 6 was announced for the period folk-music drama. CBS Films may not be terribly experienced in this game, but they sure are aware that three of the brothers' last four films nabbed Best Picture nominations.
To whet our appetite for the film, and handful of new stills from it have hit the web, and very handsome they are too. A couple of them we've seen before in monochrome, but they really pop with the addition of color. In a different but comparable way to their last 1960s-set piece, "A Serious Man," the Coens appear to be using a rich but selective palette to evoke the fashions and aesthetics of the era: here, the autumnal hues and natural textures popular in Greenwich Village bohemia (and glimpsed in a certain phase of "Mad Men") are the order of the day. Orange-and-teal has never looked so retro-chic.
The creator of these images, it's worth noting, is not Roger Deakins: the Coens' favorite cinematographer (he's shot 11 of their films, earning Oscar nods for five of them) wasn't available this time round. Instead, it's Frenchman Bruno Delbonnel doing the honors, and he's hardly a secondary replacement. (When Deakins isn't around, nothing but the best will do for the brothers: "Burn After Reading" was shot by an understretched Emmanuel Lubezki.) Oscar-nominated for "Amelie," "A Very Long Engagement" and -- in something of a surprise -- "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince," he's well known for his stylized use of color, often to romantic or nostalgic effect; everything we've seen of the film is clearly his work.

Ohio Will NOT Create ObamaCare Health Exchange

This is great news for residents in Ohio. As we showed you at this link, the Federal Government is going to essentially run the exchange no matter who creates it. So, why spend state money then?
This means Ohio can use the money they were going to spend in much better ways to the benefit of its citizenry.

WTH is this world coming to?
Via AP
CLEVELAND (AP) — An Ohio man says he was giving money to a panhandler in a wheelchair when the cash fell to the ground and he was cited by police for littering.
WJW-TV reports John Davis, of Elyria, could have been ticketed for donating to a panhandler but instead was cited for a potentially more expensive violation issued to people who dump trash. It's a $344 ticket, plus court costs and attorney fees.
The 42-year-old Davis says he was driving May 17 when he spotted the panhandler and reached out of his vehicle to give the man a couple of dollars, but the money dropped.

Practise Pilates for a Better Body
Pilates is a new fitness craze around the world and is catching up fast right here - in India! So the faster you acclimatize yourself with this new fitness fad, the easier it will be to decide if you want to do it or not. So is pilates here to stay? Lets find out.
What is Pilates?
Pilates is a body conditioning routine that seeks to build flexibility, strength, endurance, and coordination without adding muscle bulk. In addition, pilates increases circulation and helps to sculpt the body and strengthen the body's "core" or "powerhouse" (torso). People who do pilates regularly feel they have better posture, are less prone to injury, and experience better overall health.
Pilates is essentially a physical fitness system developed in the 20th century by Joseph Pilates from Germany and it was originally used to rehabilitate bedridden or immobile patients during World War I.
How is Pilates different from yoga?
Both Yoga and Pilates have similarities and many differences. While both are mind – body exercises (exercises that require the right balance of mindfulness, correct postures and concentrated breathing to enjoy all the benefits they have to offer), Yoga goes a step further and is a teaching of mind, body, and spirit, adding the spiritual angle.
While Pilates has its origins in Yoga asanas, Yoga is not merely a physical exercise but is designed to facilitate serious contemplation. In other words, it tries to provide an integrated approach towards objective and transcendental knowledge. Stronger muscles, stress relief and improved circulation are essentially by-products of practicing Yoga. Pilates on the other hand, primarily tries to strengthen the core stability muscles of our body to improve the way we function in our daily lives.
Pilates isn't a life philosophy, it is simply a series of exercises designed to improve the strength of our core muscles around the abdominals, hips and lower back.
Benefits of Pilates
- Provides a greater awareness of posture.
- Tones and builds long, lean muscles.
- Strengthens deep abdominal muscles.
- Helps with motivation by engaging our mind and enhancing body awareness.
- Reduces stress, relieves tension and boosts energy.
- Promotes recovery from strain or injury.
- Offers relief from back pain and joint stress.
- Compliments sports training and develops functional fitness for daily life.
Should you try it out?
Yes, if you want to try something new that compliments your current routine. If you already do Yoga, you could try Pilates for a variation and it's quite possible that you can do two completely different classes without them overlapping. If you don't do Yoga currently then Pilates is most certainly a valuable addition to your fitness routine, and can help you achieve a long, strong and lean frame.

Before I started with Matt I never dreamed I could ever get into a workout regimen. I have always hated exercising but Matt works within my limitations and abilities and pushes me to excel. I will be using his services for many years to come. Plus it's so exciting to fit into clothes I haven't worn in years and I feel better than I have in decades. Thanks, Matt, for bringing out the thinner more energetic me!

What Katie says:
Extra holiday weight and poor overall eating habits led to some extra and unnecessary pounds prior to my wedding. When I realized that I wouldn't be able to do it without the help of a personal trainer, I contacted Matt Hanson with Sin City Training for a consultation. Although I wanted to lose a few pounds, I was really looking to change my eating habits and overall physique.
With Matt's nutritional guidance and regular workouts, I noticed that my body was changing within only a few months. I was losing inches everywhere and gaining muscle definition – so much so that at my wedding, my boss (whom I see everyday) remarked that she had no idea how in shape I was! I wouldn't have looked as great as I did on my wedding without Matt and would without hesitation recommend him to anyone who wants to get into shape or generally look and feel better.

What Beau says:
There are a number of things that contributed to my weight problems, such as five major knee surgeries, a lot of stress on the job, quitting smoking and poor choices. At the age of 44 I was an obese 245 pounds. I felt lousy and looked lousy, but moreover, I was a ticking time bomb. I decided to make a change. In order for me to be successful, I was going to need the right kind of professional help. I got that help from Matt Hanson of Sin City Training. Matt worked with me on an eating plan to get control of the foods I was putting in my body. He put together a progressive workout plan that accommodated for the physical limitations of my surgically repaired knee. Matt's creativity always kept my workouts interesting and challenging. I now am under 200 pounds for the first time in 17 years.

What Ashley says:
Matt is a phenomenal trainer. He takes the time to get to know what your needs are and what you truly want to accomplish. I was trying to tone up for my upcoming wedding and we accomplished exactly that. I felt so much better after only the first two sessions and could really see a difference.

Danielle A.
What Danielle says:
I'm a professional dancer here in Vegas and my job keeps me in good shape. I recently was hired at a show where my dancing was pretty minimal and I realized I needed more of a work out at the gym to keep an athletic body. When I was looking for trainers, Matt came highly recommended. After working out with him for a few weeks, I noticed I was leaner in my midsection and legs. Now that it's been a few short months I see strong muscle definition, I feel better and I'm more confident. I know every time I have a session with him, he's going to push me to get a good workout. I've passed on his contact information to many of my friends.

What Leah says:
MATT ROCKS!!! I am currently an artist with Cirque du Soleil out on recovery from foot surgery. Because I cannot perform each night like usual, I need a way to keep my athletic physique in shape without doing cardio on a machine because I am unable to. With our workouts and extensive planning in nutrition, Matt actually lowered my body fat percentage as well as weight, and helped me gain and lose inches in each of the places in which I had concern. He fulfilled everything that I had hoped for, and now I'm going back into the show with a better body than I had left with!
Leah M.
Jim F.
What Jim says:
I have been training with Matt for two years. I have great results, having lowered my body fat, strengthening my core, my legs and my arms. He changes exercises each time to strengthen areas that need strengthening, to improve cardiovascular fitness, and to avoid boredom. Also I use Matt to keep from injuring myself, to keep from over exerting exercises, and to keep coming to the gym. I'm lazy! Thanks to Matt, my anti-aging goals are met because I wouldn't think to do the things Matt has me do. Matt isn't the type of trainer who exudes false enthusiasm, but he does encourage the best out of you in a low key manner. If you don't like disingenuous rah-rah, you'll love Matt.
Jim F.
Rebecca K.
What Rebecca says:
My idea of working out before I met Matt was going to the gym occasionally, maybe doing a workout video, and attending Barre classes. Though I was fairly regular at Barre, I wasn't getting the results I wanted. I felt more toned, but I wanted muscle since I really hadn't ever had it before. I've never been one to work out and feel physically tired and experience real "good" soreness. Barre class made me sore and I had some results, but after months of doing it, I decided to find a trainer. I'm so glad I found Matt. The first week of training opened my eyes to a whole new work out world. My body was pushed from the start. But I left the work outs feeling liked I'd accomplished something great. As the sessions progressed, I felt myself getting stronger. Matt pushed me to try new things while understanding my limitations since I have Rheumatoid Arthritis. As I started getting stronger, we increased the weight. For the first time in my life, I can see muscle definition and I feel like I'm more toned than ever. Matt also gave me ideas on ways to eat better. He came up with a meal plan and gave me a list of options for healthy food. It's much easier to shop at the grocery store if you have a list of what is good for you! The bottom line, Matt taught me how to work out. Before seeing Matt, I would never dream of going to the gym and lifting weights. After training with Matt, I now know what machines and free weights can accomplish my goals. He even started my habit of going at least 3-4 times a week. It's been great! I would absolutely recommend his expertise to anyone at any level.
Rebecca K.
Brooke J.
What Brooke says:
Matt helped me build more muscle tone and strength. He motivated us to keep working and to improve our diet. He provided a meal plan that was really helpful. He helped us get more muscle definition. His personality is really fun and pushes you without being too aggressive. I would definitely work with him again and recommend him to others.
Brooke J.
Anthony K.
What Anthony says:
I've had personal trainers over the last 10 yrs and I can honestly say that none were able to help me as much as Matt has.
Matt's training method is just what I needed. I'm not good at getting yelled and screamed and that's what I like about Matt.
What makes Matt different from other trainers I've had is that Matt does not Motivate you or Push you, he makes you motivate yourself and push yourself beyond anything you ever thought possible. .. oh, and just so you know, no amount of whining or complaining will get you off from doing those 3 last reps.
Matt makes me dig deep within and find strength and endurance that I didn't even think I had.
When I started with him, I couldn't even run one lap around the gym track without feeling like my heart was going to explode. Matt challenged my body with exercises that I had never done before and even though I was downright pathetic in every single one of them at the beginning, I am amazed at how much fitter I am only a few months down the road.
Today, I can exercise for a whole hour without breaks and I can't begin to tell you how good that feels. Working out with Matt has helped me do more than just lose body fat. I sleep better, I'm in a better mood, I have 10 times more energy than I did just a few months ago and I feel good and confident in my own skin. Plus, I now know I can run from danger if I had to..
I highly recommend Matt as a personal trainer. If you're in the Las Vegas area and you want a trainer that will keep you self-motivated so you actually look forward to your workout sessions, Matt is just the right guy for you.
Give him a try. You won't regret it.
Anthony K.
What Eric says:
I am in the best shape of my life because of Matt Hanson at Sin City Training !!!! He gave me my life back by keeping me on track both in the gym and at the dinner table. I feel great, I look great, and owe it all to Matt for showing me the way. By the way, he is the 5th trainer in Las Vegas I have used, and Matt is without a doubt the BEST and if you ask around you will find he has an impeccable reputation for success with his clientele.
Eric H.
What Jessica says:
Great results!!! I trained with Matt to get in shape for my wedding. He was very helpful in recommending proper nutrition and his workouts really helped me to tone up and fit perfectly into my wedding dress. During that time, he helped me to lose about 7 pounds for my wedding. All my friends and family gave me a ton of compliments on the shape I was in and it was definitely because of Matt's help. He held me accountable for my diet and knew the right workouts to get the results I wanted. He's great!
Jessica G.
Jason G.
What Jason says:
If your looking for a personal trainer that can customize to your goals and that works with you to make sure you surpass those goals than Matt is yor trainer. Matt has been training me for 4 months now and he has improved my quality of life with his training. It is amazing the results I have seen in such a short period of time. I have never felt better and I owe it all to Matt. And best of all Matt is always willing to work with my scheduling to find a time to fit me in. Which is really important as I am a business owner and sometimes times can be tough for me to come by. Thanks Matt for improving my quality of life. If you are looking to get that much needed energy back in life than Matt is your trainer.
Jason G.
What Jherome says:
I have been training with Matt from Sin City Training for just over three months now. In that time I have lost 25 lbs. and approximately 10.5% body fat. Matt not only works with you in the gym but emphasizes proper nutrition as well. In addition to introducing me to "My Fitness Pal", Matt has developed various meal plans and healthy recipes for me. I have started workout routines several times in the past only to quit weeks or months later. I have never achieved the results that I have so far, in other workout programs/diets. I would highly recommend Matt and Sin City Training to anyone trying to achieve their weight loss and fitness goals.

What Carlos says:
I HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! I tried for years to lose weight and was unsuccessful doing it on my own. I searched for a personal trainer, and decided on Sin City Training. Matt Hanson has helped me lose over 30 lbs. (and counting!) since I started working out with him- the man knows his stuff! Not only have I lost the weight, but I feel so much better about myself- Matt has truly given me a new life. He's a great trainer, motivator, and is very knowledgeable. I have a great time when I'm working out with him- he is by far the best personal trainer in Las Vegas!
Carlos S.
What Michael says:I've been training with Matt for nearly two years. He's the only trainer I recommend to friends. His knowledge of what exercises are best based on your goals is invaluable.Michael C.
What Paula says:
Personable,caring and gets down to business. Makes "YES AND ONE OR TWO MORE" part of your new vocabulary. His challenge was a 73 year old over weight, diabetic, woman with vertigo. Lost 10 pounds and on the way to more. TRY MATT, YOU WON'T BE SORRY!!!!!!!
Paula R.
What Jesse says:
After 11 years of minimal exercise due to multiple back surgeries, Matt has helped me get my life back. He gave me specialized workout routines to increase strength and flexibility and worked on strengthening my core and lower body to help support my lower back. I have been using his services for sometime now and he has got me back into the activities I love, such as golf, something I thought I would never be able to participate in again. Along with a strict nutrition regimen, I have gone down almost 30 pounds and my energy level has skyrocketed.

I don't like to define myself as this or that type of person as the more I delve into myself the more complex/simple it becomes. However, If I have to describe myself, it would be meditating transcendental nerd with a dash of chocoholicism!!
Philosophy gets in the way of pure experience. Religion gets in the way of Spirit. Nationalism gets in the way of Humanity.
Sharing this idea with all.
Have Surfed in Delhi, India and Germany; Frieburg, Heidelberg and Marburg. All great experiences, nothing but positive!!
Meditation, Yoga, Philosophy, Movies, Hanging out, Food, Scuba, Snowboarding, Stand up comedy, Exploring different cultures, staring at walls, eating chocolate, food fights with Tibetan Monks, walking through supermarkets in foreign countries.

I've been around the world a five times. Lived in monasterys, met the Dalai Lama, Slept in caves with Sadhu's in India. Done over 3000 scuba dives. Done 6 Vipassana courses, last one 21 days. Seeing the stars out at sea miles from nowhere. Teach diving to a legless girl (legless, not drunk!) Built a time machine and went back 6ooo years to see if the creationist were right (that man and dinosaurs coexisted) and they were wrong, I did however meet Cornilius and Zira from "planet of the apes". (maybe the last thing was an exageration!)I also had my face taken apart and reconstructed, looked like a baboon for a year and now all is good (see xray, in my photos)

Jens Meyer 5:57 PM Australia is sliding down the ranks of purchasing power and in US dollar terms we can't nearly buy as much as we could at the peak of the commodities boom.
Mark Mulligan 4:19 PM The Reserve Bank of Australia on Tuesday kept the cash rate steady at 2 per cent, but left the door ajar for a further cut this year.
Jonathan Shapiro When Citi's head of research Bruce Rolph hired Elaine Prior he made the best decision of his career.
Patrick Hatch Australians holidaying overseas must accept their dollars will buy less European beer and fewer New York hot dogs, as economists predict the currency will only continue to slide in value.
Ross Gittins Increasing the population while leaving our stock of household, business and public capital unchanged, dilutes that capital. Lower immigration would help reduce a lot of our economic problems.
Peter Martin First, the good news. None of the BusinessDay forecasting panel expects a recession this coming year. But Australia's terms of trade are set to dive further and wage growth will be so low it won't match inflation, sending real wages backwards.
Gareth Hutchens The majority of Australia's top private economists do not believe the property market in Sydney or Melbourne is in a bubble.

Gareth Hutchens Australia should be far more worried about a Chinese stock market crash than Greece exiting the eurozone, but we would remain relatively unscathed from both events, economists say.
Matthew Knott, Stephen Cauchi, Sam Hall The Australian dollar flirted with six-year lows on Friday as booming car sales and worse-than-expected retail figures offered a mixed message for the strength of the Australian economy.
Vanessa Desloires Some of Australia's biggest banks have released their economic outlooks, and say the economy will struggle some more as the post-mining transition is proving slow
German Chancellor Angela Merkel rules out further talks before Greek's referendum, but euro-are finance ministers signal the deadlock may be thawing.
Vanessa Desloires, Jens Meyer, Colin Hamilton, Dionne Gain Amid the wild swings in global markets, some of Australia's top investors and analysts share which financial and economic indicators they're keeping their eyes on.
Stephen Cauchi Not even the Grexit crisis has been enough to rescue gold from its bear market, but bullion fans take heart - better days are ahead.
Michael Heath The International Monetary Fund -- the arbiter of fiscal soundness and creditor of Greece -- says Australia should be opening its pocketbook for public investment to shore up growth.
Jeff Black While Greece and its creditors wrangle into and beyond the eleventh hour, spare a thought for the European Central Bank. It's the one paying to keep the lights on. The price for the central bank strictly imposing its rules would be to tip Greece into an abyss.
Michael Heath and Jillian Ward Greek's crisis is unlikely to have a material impact on our shores unless there's major upheaval in global markets, the RBA chief says. But expect central banks around the world to continue their loose monetary policy as they fight for financial stability.
Stephen Cauchi Australia has cut its price forecast for iron ore in 2015 by 10 per cent to $US54.40 a tonne, citing a weak outlook for the commodity's main market, China's steel sector
Joyce Moullakis Australia will see its next peak in merger and acquisition activity in 2018, but a landmark report predicts deal activity won't hit 'bubble-like' heights seen prior to the global financial crisis.
Ross Gittins If the economy runs out of steam in the next year or two – and maybe even falls backwards – with unemployment climbing rapidly, there'll be plenty to share the blame: federal and state governments, federal and state Treasuries, and the utterly discredited credit-rating agencies.

Additional Location Information
The southernmost city in the continental United States is, in fact, an intimate six-square-mile island that feels like a Caribbean getaway. Key West was the lone city south of the Mason-Dixon to remain with the Union during the Civil War. To this day, that freethinking sensibility remains intact, and the city's location—closer to Cuba than to Miami—results in an eclectic cultural mix. This is a place where people go barefoot, chickens roam the streets, and epitaphs like DEVOTED FANS OF JULIO IGLESIAS are found in the cemetery. Though it may be best known for Hemingway and Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville, you'll ?nd the real essence of the place in its very particular style of Victorian and Queen Anne architecture, and in its eclectic residents: quirky but classic, and ready to welcome everyone.

(9) Xavier vs. (1) Ohio State
LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP)—Greg Oden and Mike Conley Jr. glanced at one another and smiled, clearly intrigued by the question.
If coach Thad Matta hadn't left Xavier for Ohio State three years ago, was there a chance the dynamic freshman duo might have wound up playing for the Musketeers instead of helping the Buckeyes become a No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament?
Oden and Conley agreed Friday that it could have happened.
"He's a great coach and a great guy," said Oden, who faces his coach's former team Saturday in the second round of the South Regional. "He was really the first thing that got me attracted to Ohio State, so if he was there it could have been a possibility."
Conley recalled Matta, while in the midst of a successful stint at Xavier, being one of the first coaches to contact the players early in their careers at Lawrence North High School in Indianapolis.
"It was a definite option back then because of the kind of person and coach he was," the Buckeyes' point guard said. "If he hadn't moved, it could have turned out a little different."
Well, so much for what might have been.
Matta did leave Xavier in July 2004, just days after saying he had no interest in the Buckeyes job. He tried to play down the significance of facing his old team in the second round, but his friendship with his Xavier successor, Sean Miller, and the circumstances surrounding his departure are a natural story line.
"I think that's a sad approach to the game. I think you're taking away from the kids, which amazes me," Matta said. "Xavier is a tremendous basketball team. They've had a great season. I think we're a very good basketball team and we've had a great season. The fact that we're meeting, it's another game."
Musketeers fans certainly don't think so. Many of them booed the Ohio State coach when he ducked into Rupp Arena to catch a portion of Xavier's first-round victory over Brigham Young on Thursday night.
Xavier has a strong NCAA tradition, and Matta was very much a part of it, leading the Musketeers beyond the first round of the tourney each of his three seasons there. He moved to Ohio State a few months after guiding a surprising run to the round of eight.
Xavier's three senior starters—Justin Cage, Justin Doellman and Brandon Cole—were contributors on that team. They're excited to be facing Ohio State, but insisted it's not an opportunity to get the coach who bolted after their freshman year.
"He's moved on and we have as well," Cage said. "There is no animosity."
To upset the top-seeded Buckeyes (31-3), Miller said his Musketeers (25-8) will have to play a perfect game.
The Xavier coach described Matta as one of his "best friends in life," adding he was disappointed by the reception fans gave his former boss.
Matta and Miller once shared a small office as assistants at Miami of Ohio, and Miller served as associate head coach under his friend at Xavier.
"I really believe he has a fondness in his heart for Xavier. If it wasn't for the great run we had, this situation probably wouldn't be a reality. I know a lot of our players think the world of him, and I know he roots for us and pulls for us," Miller said.
"The great part about Xavier is we have a history that goes beyond any coach. Bob Staak, Pete Gillen, Skip Prosser, Thad Matta and hopefully I can continue it on. It's that 25 years of winning that makes Xavier so special, not one singular coach or moment."
Matta said the night before Ohio State was set to announce his hiring, he actually called then-Buckeyes athletic director Andy Geiger to withdraw. He changed his mind again during the conversation, and has no regrets about taking the job.
The way he sees it, the move has worked out for both schools.
Ohio State is riding an 18-game winning streak, and Xavier is in the NCAA tournament for the sixth time in seven years.
"The great thing is when I left Xavier I knew they were in great hands. I knew that Sean was going to get the job," Matta said. "I felt that that program, we made it better than it was when we got there. And as long as Sean was taking over, I felt great."
He's even cool with the way Xavier fans reacted Thursday night.
"They used to boo me when I coached there," Matta said. "So I was very accustomed to it."

|Short review: Lestai is filled with the cool lesbian scenes found in hentai vidz. Cheerleaders, dominator females, oldies, nurses, girls attending school, secretaries, sisties and instructors kiss, suck tamales, lick lovely holes and even use sex playthings. A few sexual bondage scenes can be found as well as lesbian three-way, four-way-swing and sessions. To my surprise and delight, the web-site also has a few scenes with drag queen act.
