Mays honored with portraitPublished 4:58pm Tuesday, January 28, 2014
By Bart Moss
For the FCT
Former Phil Campbell Mayor Jerry Mays unveiled a portrait of himself at the Phil Campbell City Council meeting Tuesday night.
The portrait will was placed on the wall alongside the portraits of past mayors of the town of Phil Campbell.
Mays presided as mayor of Phil Campbell during the town's most difficult times – the devastating tornado of April 2011 and the rebuilding phased afterward.
"Jerry did an excellent job as mayor during a very tough time," said current mayor Steve Bell.
"He managed the tornado efforts as well as anyone could."
He credited Mays with making his transition to mayor a positive one.
"The transition went smoothly and I know I can call on him anytime I need advice and counsel."
The portrait was presented to the mayor by local artist Deb Ryan, who drew the portrait.
It was Mays' first trip back to a council meeting since he left office a little over a year ago.
In other business:
• Mayor Steve Bell gave the council an update on the industrial park construction on Highway 43. He told the council the water tower is going up and is about forty percent complete. He also said the new business is already laying concrete.
• Councilman Nagle explained that the cost of fire department training was being absorbed by the county. Mayor Bell said this was important for the fire department's ISO insurance rating. The rating has not changed and will not change as long as the town completes the action plan submitted. This would keep property owners insurance rates at the status quo.
• Mayor Bell also said the demolition of the old city swimming pool is under way. This will pave the way for the installation of a splash pad to be completed sometime this spring.
• The council voted to relieve a city employed of their duties because they did not meet probationary requirements. They also voted to hire Kevin Hill into the vacant position. Hill will have various job duties, according to the mayor, such as street sanitation and maintenance.

The atmosphere in the stadium is fantastic and hopefully the crowd can get behind us in what is sure to be a great challenge against a motivated and physical French team."England lead the Six Nations table and are only the side in this season's tournament who can win the Grand Slam.France, by contrast, have made their worst start to a Championship for 31 years and are currently bottom of the pile after back-to-back defeats by Italy and Wales.That prompted France coach Philippe Saint-Andre to make seven changes and a positional switch for a match he has dubbed a "Grand Slam" encounter for his struggling side when he unveiled his Twickenham team earlier Thursday. All of England's changes reflect what they think will be a physical threat from France, with Tuilagi joining defensive linchpin Brad Barritt in midfield.Lancaster later explained his thinking in recalling Tuilagi and Hartley to the starting line-up, saying the centre provided "good gainline options and good options defensively" while the experienced Hartley was "a bigger, heavier man" than Youngs.As for Lawes being selected at blindside flanker, Lancaster told Sky Sports: "Courtney brings a lot more than lineout presence. Defensively he is one of our best players."France drive well at lineouts and we have good defensive options there to counter that in Courtney and Geoff Parling."England (15-1)Alex Goode; Chris Ashton, Brad Barritt, Manu Tuilagi, Mike Brown; Owen Farrell, Ben Youngs; Tom Wood, Chris Robshaw (capt), Courtney Lawes; Geoff Parling, Joe Launchbury; Dan Cole, Dylan Hartley, Joe MarlerReplacements: Tom Youngs, David Wilson, Mako Vunipola, James Haskell, Thomas Waldrom, Danny Care, Toby Flood, Billy Twelvetrees.jdg/phz

Upgrade tablet to a Wacom ?
I have been using photoshop for digital photographs for 4 years. In that time I have been using an A4 Nisis tablet which was fine. I stumbled across this site about a month ago and have been totally inspired to start drawing/painting again... haven't done this for some 20 years (since school etc)
So I've started sketching in Photoshop and Painter and am struggling with putting faint lines down and generally controlling the pen accuratley (fine for cloning in PS but is not working for me whilst trying to draw
So do I spend £200 on a A5 Intus 3 Wacom tablet ?
Is it a massive improvement on my old Nisis ?
Should I stick with the Nisis tablet and keep practicing ?
Thanks very much
aka Sniffer
P.S. You lot rock and some of the pieces of art are the best I've seen around on the web in 11 years of surfing !

Get a Wacom, they are the only tablets that should exist on this world, i have an intuos 3 9x12 and it's freaking awesome, really responsive, the sensitivity is top notch even the faintest lines show up and the express keys are really handy and you get loads of kewl pen nibs
Cheers, Tyler

Definitely worth the upgrade from anything you've currently got.
Stuipd question, though: does anybody know if an Intuos4 is in the works? There's no way I'm upgrading so soon after getting mine, but I'm curious as to just how they could possibly improve on the Intuos3, the thing's damn near perfect.

Amen Brother!!

hehe 17 feb its my birthday and i am getting a A5 Intuos 3 Wacom

HISTORY OF Tacoma Branch
Tacoma Mountaineers have been an active part of The Mountaineers from the beginning. Charles Landes, a professor at Tacoma High School and his brother Henry Landes, the club's first president, led the first Local Walk in on the Tacoma area, on March 16, 1907. That excursion, from American Lake to Steilacoom, was The Mountaineers' third-ever outing. Late in 1910, the member roster showed 10 Tacoma Residents out of 375 Mountaineer members.
Tacoma's "Auxiliary to the Mountaineers" was formed in March 1912 primarily due to the efforts of A. H. Denman, an attorney with a love for photography and the mountains. He was assisted by John B. Flett, a botany professor, and J. Harry Weer, a wholesale grocery executive. Weer presided as president for seven years and was the first Summer Outing chairman from Tacoma. Tacoma Branch leaders organized and let many summer outings in the Northwest during the early decades of the Mountaineers.
Before 1912 ended, the Tacoma branch staged a five-day winter outing at Longmire, which became an annual event. The outing was moved to Paradise in 1917, and the attendance figures for 1923 show 160 participants. Although these multi-day-treks had to end a decade or so later for insurance reasons, they were perhaps the first organized efforts to get area residents into the mountains in the winter and effectively pioneered the way for the snowshoeing, skiing and winter mountaineering that would soon follow.
History of Irish Cabin
For more than 50 years, the Tacoma branch had its own retreat at Irish Cabin, located near the main channel of the Carbon River along the road to the Carbon River entrance to Mount Rainier National Park. The cabin was built sometime before the turn of the century by a man known only as Mr. Irish, who worked a nearby copper mine. It was deserted for about two decades, approachable only by trail up the north side of the Carbon River until 1923, when a corduroy road was built up to access Olson's Cabin on Cataract Creek A tangle of brush obscured the Irish Cabin from travelers who dared to drive their Model Ts up the rutted, muddy road until April 1926, when a group of Tacoma Mountaineers, led by Leo Gallagher, was passing by and decided to investigate the old cabin. They found a fairly large building constructed almost entirely of split cedar, including the floor. Gallagher, A little repair work transformed the cabin into a Mountaineers home.
During the depression the branch bought the cabin and 18 acres surrounding it for $300. However, the area's virgin forest were logged not long afterward, destroying much of the charm and beauty of the site. A rehabilitation program began in the late 1940's when a new foundation and beautiful river-stone fireplace were built and the kitchen was remodeled to handle crowds for festive dinners, group gatherings and lively weekend outings. Soon there was nothing left of the original "cabin" but the main floor and walls. Bunks in the cabin were bought and paid for by individual members, with the names of the owners stenciled on them. Eventually there were sleeping quarters for 60 overnighters.
The road to Mowich made the 24 "Irish Cabin" peaks more easily accessible in the 1950's, making the Cabin Peaks Climbs popular day trips. The historic use of Irish as a base camp was over but fond memories of wonderful outings motivated the Tacoma Branch to maintain the "cabin" for many years. It was a destination for climbing course field trips, a very active youth group, and the annual Thanksgiving Dinner. The job of keeping the cabin habitable, free of squatters and vandalizing became an expensive consideration, and eventually in 1978 the Tacoma branch dismantled the building and it was taken down. The "unimproved" property is still used for car camping and by several courses for field trips.
For more information about using the Irish Cabin property please contact the Tacoma Program Administrator at email@example.com or click here.
History of Program Center
Tacoma and Seattle are the only two branches to have a Program Center, and Tacoma's "clubhouse" is located at 2302 North 30th Street - appropriately in historic "Old Town" near the Ruston Way Waterfront Park on Commencement Bay. Leo Gallagher donated the site and engaged the architect Silas Nelson of Tacoma to design a functional, one-story home for the branch. Volunteers worked for more than a year before the building was ready for the first meeting in March 1956. Finishing work continued for several years until the building was cozy. Members came to meetings dressed in their climbing clothes to stay warm in the early years when the program center was without central heating.
At present the clubhouse is newly remolded to include heat and serves as a very inviting, well-appointed place for the diversity of activities and programs the branch offers Mountaineer members throughout the year. When The Mountaineers are not using the facility, the program center is rented and is a popular venue for weddings, receptions, seminars, memorials and social affairs.
Tacoma "new member meetings" are a great way to meet some of the club members, see a presentation of the various activities, and get your questions answered. They are held most months on the third Friday at 7:00pm at the Tacoma Program Center.
The Tacoma Branch Council meeting is held every last Monday of the month at 7:00pm in the Boardroom at the Tacoma Program Center.

But hemlock Grove does not feel like a step in the right direction.
Before I reached for a bedtime Tylenol PM that night, I Googled the hemlock Society.
In the interim, Herring took a short break from the band to dabble in his side-project—rapping under the moniker hemlock Ernst.
a poisonous plant, Old English (Kentish) hemlic, earlier hymlice, hymblice; of unknown origin. Liberman suggests from root hem- "poison," perhaps with the plant name suffix -ling or -ig. As the name of the poison derived from the plant, c.1600. The North American tree so called from 1776, from resemblance of its leaves to those of the plant.

"Rosh is the name of some poisonous plant which grows quickly and luxuriantly; of a bitter taste, and therefore coupled with wormwood (Deut. 29:18; Lam. 3:19).

What's Apple.com/iChatMobile for? iPhone? iTablet? More iUnicorns?
No sooner did iSlate.com surface than 9to5mac has noted that http://apple.com/ichatmobile doesn't return a "page not found" error, but rather redirects to Apple's iChat for Mac OS X.
Could be nothing, of course. (But if I didn't post this next part, Chad would never forgive me). Or, in the best-case scenario, Apple is finally (finally) putting the pieces in place to launch an actual, mobile iChat application for the iPhone (and perhaps just-as-mytical at this point, iTablet).
Now whether it will be text-only IM, or use video, or indicates the 4th generation iPhone and rumored iSlate will have a front-facing camera is a box of crazy even we're not opening this holiday season!

What's Apple.com/iChatMobile for? iPhone? iTablet? More iUnicorns?
Page not found
BlargahidhsIHSa! Fixed! Thanks!
OMGZ! iChat is coming for the Google phone!!!
And on win mobile!
Even on the Symbian!!!
Go now my brothers and sisters, spread the rumor onto other websites, we must keep the mill rolling!
Actually, if you put apple.com/ichat4483438 or replace those numbers with whatever you want, you'll still get taken to an iChat page. Surely this means their web server just uses htaccess to look for iChat in the requested url and sends them to the most relevant page. Sorry, dudes, I'm thinking no iChat for WinMo, Nexus or Symbian. Possibly iPhone.
What's weird is that we haven't seen nothing lately for the iPhone. I guess everyone is anxious! Something has to give.
Please apple answer my prayers, add iChat to the iphone with support not just for aim, gtalk and mobileme. But for facebook, yahoo, myspace, msn etc. Basically imagine Beejive IM fully integrated into the iPhone messaging app, with the final cherry on top being iPhone to iPhone messaging a la BBM. That would be reason enough for anyone to get an iPhone.
Apple needs to incorporate iChat into the messages app.
iChat for iPhone has been a rumor for every version since the first one. Is it really that desirable a feature? When I'm using my iPhone, 90% of the time, I'm not in a situation where I can stand still and point the phone at my head. I don't even own a headset, and I never use speakerphone.
iChat for a Tablet seems much more likely to me. Ergonomically, you're more likely to be in the right position for video chat while using a Tablet than a phone. And a camera for chat as well as interaction (and games) seems like a better hardware addition for a Tablet than a phone.
No one cares.
I would love to see iChat Mobile. That would an IM/Messaging app that could run in the background.
Apple recently increase the resolution on iChat in Snow Leopard, I guess it had something to do with bandwidth - How much resolution will we get on the new iPhones on ATT with data rates that fluctuate ?

Thursday's letters: The people have spoken'
Published: Thursday, November 14, 2013 at 3:15 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, November 13, 2013 at 8:36 p.m.
About one year ago, when Barack Obama was re-elected for his second term as president, he gleefully and confirmationally stated: The people have spoken.
The people he referred to form a majority of voters and include:
(1) The large group of people who rely on public support in one form or another people on welfare or other government assistance (some justified and some not).
(2) People who believe the government can better manage their affairs than they can themselves.
(3) People convinced and swayed by the lies about the newly enacted Affordable Care Act, commonly referred to as Obamacare.
This group consists of not only Democrats but Republicans, too.
Unfortunately, the group that has spoken the loudest is breaking the back of the silent minority. The trend cannot be sustained because the silent minority is getting smaller and smaller. Speak up, silent minority.

A ministry open to all
Members of the Spartanburg Soup Kitchen board regret that recent publicity and commentary have implied that our ministry is not open to all. If you believe this to be true, you should see us in action.
Our corporation was formed to provide ministry and service to people in our community, and specifically to feed those who are hungry. We were formed as a Christian ministry and continue to operate as such and are not empowered to engage in any activity that is not a furtherance of our purpose. Our director has served for 12 years with dignity and kindness to hundreds of volunteers and guests while upholding the values and bylaws of our organization.
We welcome volunteers from all faiths and walks of life to our facility as long as these individuals and groups work in accordance with our bylaws. Community support has always been strong, and we value everyone who has helped us feed those in need for 31 years.
With continued support, we will continue this ministry for as long as it is needed. We invite you to come see people helping people every day at our facility.

- An ISBN is the 10 or 13 digit number, usually printed on the back of a book with a bar code, that serves as a unique identifier for the book.
- Searching by ISBN is the best way to search because it will get you the exact title and edition that you need.
- Many professors include the ISBN on their syllabi or in their course management system.
If you don't have the ISBN, try a title or author search.
Title search
- Enter all words in the title you are looking for. The search engine will try to find books that have all the words you entered in the title. Leave out words such as "a," "an," or "the."
- When including edition, use numeric values. For example, "1st edition" instead of "first edition."
Author search
- Enter all or part of the author name you are looking for.
- You do not need to enter a first name, but if there are a lot of books by authors with the same last name, it may help to narrow the results.
- You can enter the name in any order such as "John Smith" or "Smith John." Avoid using a comma since it has a special meaning in the search.
Keyword search
- You can search by keyword but this approach is not recommended as it will likely return a large set of results.
- If you want to search by keyword, try a combination of author and keyword. For example, "Warren Accounting" where "Warren" is the author and "Accounting" is the keyword.
To refine your results, use the filtering/sorting options
- Filter options include product type and discipline area. Sort options include alphabetical sort (ascending or descending) and copyright year (ascending or descending).

"What's driving foreclosures out here is negative equity, as much, or more so than job loss or anything else," O'Toole said. "We put an awful lot of home owners from '05 to '07 in homes almost double what they were worth. You have a lot of folks out here living in million-dollar homes that are living above their means."
The mortgage crisis doesn't discriminate. Earlier this year, Oscar-winning actor Nicolas Cage's English Tudor mansion in Bel-Air – once owned by Dean Martin and Tom Jones – was put up for sale by the lender, Citibank. Once listed at $35 million, the nearly 12,000-square-foot estate is selling for $11.8 million, according to Redfin.
"The key thing is just because you bought a million-dollar house doesn't mean you're rich," Green said. "There are people who are rich who are just walking away and saying, 'Screw you,' and then there are those who weren't rich who got into a million-dollar house they shouldn't have bought in the first place."
Another luxury lender-owned property up for sale is the Thousand Oaks, Calif., mansion owned by former Phillies and Mets star Lenny Dykstra, who filed for bankruptcy last year. The ex-ballplayer has now launched a new company – predatorylendingrecovery.com – to help struggling homeowners stay in their houses, according to the website.
Dykstra, who after baseball found fame as an investment guru, has claimed that Washington Mutual, which J.P. Morgan purchased in 2008, put him into a $12 million loan he couldn't afford in the $17.5 million purchase of hockey legend Wayne Gretzky's mansion. The bank has denied wrongdoing.
"Even multi-millionaires can make mistakes," Dykstra said on the website.
The real-life drama of foreclosure has even touched the well-heeled personalities of the Housewives reality-TV shows.
Last Spring, Orange County's Tamra Barney dealt away her Tuscan-style house in a short sale. The 4,300-square-foot Ladera Ranch went for $1.12 million, down from the original $1.6 million asking price. In a short sale, the lender agrees to a price less than what is owed in order to help troubled owners avoid foreclosure.
Fellow Housewives cast member Jeana Keough earlier used a loan modification earlier this year to avoid foreclosure on her seven-bedroom, nine-bathroom home.
After defaulting on a $4.7 million loan for their 6,600-square-foot Newport Beach home, Jim and Alexis Bellino, also of "Real Housewives of Orange County" fame, have received a loan modification from Chase Bank to avoid foreclosure.
Jim Bellino said he paid $5.8 million for the home in 2007, at the height of the real-estate frenzy; He owed $4.7 million. "I put a million-two down on my house," he said. "It wasn't 100 percent financed. It wasn't a frivolous decision. Listen, we all got caught."
He insisted that the decision to stop making mortgage payments was pure business.
"It doesn't have anything to do with being financially ruined, which people assume when you're not making payments," Bellino said. "It has to do with a decision to not throw good money after bad."

"When I picked the Senator and Rielle up at the private jetport...they were already pretty tipsy from drinking alcohol. He leaned over very quietly and he said, 'Andrew, whatever you do, don't let Elizabeth see Rielle,'" Young said. "That was his big fear. I dropped him off and I took Rielle to the only bathroom that I knew would be open. As we were walking in, Elizabeth opened the door with a big campaign smile on her face to greet supporters, and she came face to face with Rielle."
After the rally, Young said he drove the Edwardses home in painful silence. According to Young, Edwards admitted to his wife that night he had had an affair with Hunter, but referred to it only as a one-night stand.
"He told her he had had a one-night affair...but that I had started having an affair with her after that," Young said.
Edwards told Young that Elizabeth's response was "violent."
"He told me...Elizabeth had kept him up all night fighting about Rielle. Any time that he would almost be asleep... she would...get like an inch from his face and start screaming at him," Young recalled. "I was told repeatedly by him that she repeatedly threatened to commit suicide because of this and because of past things."
Elizabeth insisted Hunter's contract be terminated. The next day, her six month contract with the campaign ended.
In an interview with Oprah Winfrey last spring, Elizabeth said that her first reaction was to have her husband get out of the campaign, but he argued that it would raise a lot of questions if he got out two days after declaring his candidacy.
"She didn't make the decision to terminate the presidential campaign. She had that power. She chose to stand in that courtyard and present a picture of John Edwards to America as the perfect husband who was standing by his wife during her cancer treatments and that was really a fraud that both the Edwards perpetuated on the American people," Sinsheimer told ABC News. "At some point, Elizabeth Edwards went from victim to co-conspirator in allowing John to continue to run for president."
Suspicious of her husband, Elizabeth began to demand answers out of Young regarding the affair. By April 2007, Young claims the she had effectively forced him from any real involvement in the campaign.
"Mrs. Edwards obsessed over what I knew and what I may have done. She called me over and over again, demanding information I wouldn't give her. If I didn't answer, she left angry messages," Young wrote in "The Politician."
"At various times she accused me of lying, cheating, and even stealing from her household. In furious fights, she insisted her husband fire me, which he couldn't do because he needed me to take care of Rielle."
Watch "20/20" Friday at 10 p.m. ET to hear the voicemails
For the bulk of 2007, Young says he acted as the go-between for Edwards and Hunter, arranging her travel, handling all related expenses.
As reports of Edwards' affair gathered steam, Young says he and his wife Cheri hid the pregnant mistress in his family's North Carolina home. With National Enquirer reporters staking out Edwards and Hunter, the Youngs and Hunter went into hiding.
In December 2007, when the National Enquirer published an article alleging that Hunter was Edwards' mistress and that the baby is the result of their affair, Young falsely claimed he was the father of Rielle Hunter's baby.

Jimmy Saville to be revealed as a paedophile? (Part 7)

I do think that with the Savile scandal paedophilia can be kept in discussion without it being a nogo discussion area , and thats the only way we as a society can try and deal with it. Canada has a group called Circles of Support who befriend paedophiles on release form prison so the person is not alone and has people to talk to so lessens the risk of them having opportunity to reoffend and I know Scotland was talking of something similar back in 2004
Paedophilia is not just going to go away as much as we would all love it to, so as a society we have to deal with it head on and for the sake of so many victims in the past and to try and save people from being victims in the future not brush it back under the carpet.
I have mentioned the Quaker connection in Britain:
How a typical Circle works
Volunteers are recruited from the local community, including faith and community groups. They need to be responsible people with their feet on the ground. They are screened, trained and supported by the scheme. Typically, four or five volunteers form a Circle.
An offender is identified, preferably while still in prison but more usually on release into the community - a medium or high risk sex offender, with high levels of need and little or no support from family or friends. He becomes the core member of the Circle.
When the Circle first meets, they make a commitment to openness within the Circle, confidentiality beyond it and consensus decision making. The core member promises to follow his release plan and that there will be no more victims at my hands. There is close contact between the Circle and police and probation. Circles do not replace their roles, but are a structured way for the community to take its share of responsibility.
The Circle meets weekly and a member will contact the core member most days. The contacts can be informal - going shopping, or just a phone call. Over time, the meetings become less frequent. Milestones such as birthdays are celebrated. If the Circle is concerned about the core members behaviour, they will challenge him and meet more intensively for a while. Circles know when to alert police or probation to a problem.
What you can do
The idea has been taken up across England and Wales by a variety of agencies, with fully operational projects from the north of England down to the south west. Circles are now also being developed in Scotland. If you might be interested in volunteering as a Circle volunteer contact Circles UK to be put in touch with a local project in your area. Training and ongoing support are provided.
Some people are also setting up informal circles, inspired by the Canadian model, for individuals they know. We ask that they call them something different, to avoid confusion with the fully worked-through Circles of Support and Accountability, but we are glad that the ideas are proving useful.
Contact Circles UK to be put in touch with a local project in your area.

Do you use hot water to soak it in or in the microwave??
How do y'all warm bottles?
Posted 01/13/2013
I fill up a cup with hot water and put the bottle in it. I make bottles as we go, so it only takes a couple minutes to warm it up.
Posted 01/13/2013
I don't warm if its room temperature water with powder. If its cold I have a bottle warmer or set it in a cup of hot water. Microwaving can be bad bc it is heated unevenly and there can be hot spots that can burn LOs mouth.

If formula and im in a hurry, ill usually microwave and shake to get the hot spots out (even though people might say its bad to microwave).
Most of the time, and always when warming breast milk, I fill a big cup or bowl with hot water and cover the bottle in it with a lid

Posted 01/13/2013
I just get a bowl of really warm water from the faucet and put the bottle in there, warms it in a few minutes. I've heard you shouldn't use the microwave especially with breastmilk because it can zap away some of the important nutrients and hot spots as well.

"Condiments?" Now *THAT'S** funny!!!
The .45-70 should be sufficient, and it's cheaper, too, with more readily available ammunition and bullet choices. After all, there's good reason why the .45-70 cartridge was one of the most popular in bear country for decades. It's got about as good a chance to knock one down as anything.
And if I were to get one of those rifles I'd skip the scope, too. Less weight. Less to damage. And not near as quick as iron sights, not to mention scopes are near useless in the dark.
BTW, used Alaskan Co-Pilot rifles do show up occasionally on used gun web and auction sites.

Have to ask them about that.
Does anybody know the law about taking guns into Canada?
OTOH, if you had one these Alaskan Co-Pilot's, in its case, packed down in the bottom of your Jesse bags, would the border guys ever find it? Have Canadian or US customs ever had any of you guys empty your side cases, etc. when riding your bike across the border?
And I am asking that question seriously.

Chandigarh, Feb 23 (IANS) India's king of caricature Jaspal Bhatti and his Nonsense Club Saturday organised a sports 'mandi' (marketplace) here to sell players like cattle.
The sports mandi at the city's main commercial hub in Sector 17 mocked the recent Indian Premier League (IPL) auction of cricket players.
Bhatti put players from sports like hockey, football, athletics and even kabaddi up for sale.
'The minimum bid for a hockey player will start at Rs.50, football player for Rs.30 and kabaddi player for Rs.20,' Bhatti announced to mock the millions of rupees splurged by corporates on cricket players.
Members of the Nonsense club even sang parodies of old Hindi film songs to highlight the state of commercial cricket.
'Now players should only be playing for the money they get and not for the pride of the nation or for remaining healthy. We want to auction players like cows and buffaloes,' Bhatti said.
He demanded that all sports, which were not contributing to the brand value of industrial goods, should be immediately banned in the country.
He said that gambling and auctioning should be introduced as subjects from primary classes so that children can learn early about such things. He said that auction halls should be set up in all districts and cities to sell players everywhere.
'Any player from any sport who is unable to sell himself should be barred from all international events. Also players should perform depending on what they have been paid,' he said.

RBS - Preferred Tender Announced 13 commentsMar 25, 2010 1:11 PM | about stocks: RBSWell, the RBS liability management plan has finally ben announced. Perhaps I will comment on t later, but for now I want to adress the preferreds and Tier 1 instruments.
Firstly, the documnet can be found here:
Here is a summary:
As you can see, the prices have pulled within 2-5% of the tender offer. Hopefully, this trade has worked out for folks. Later, I will determine increase relative to yesterday's price (yes, even the unemployed analyst has things to do).
Any colr/thoughts is always appreciated.

Hi, I have a number of RBSPRL. I note you consider them cummulative but the Tender Offer disclosure lists them as non- cummulative. I would like to keep some because of the dividend- what do you think the chances are that RBS will stop paying the dividend, and how do you think this tender offer will affect the purchase price? I don't mind keeping them for the long haul- is this a good idea? Thank you B.M.
The L's are not cum, they are must pays (as long as there is distributable profits). They can't defer the div unless they do not have distributable profits. They fall low enough in the waterfall, that the amount left for their tender will be small. I own them and continue to hold them due to the appreciation potential and the cash they throw off.
BAC and Citi have some decent yield (I look at the new Citi Js and Citi Vs and KRB Es for BAC). There are some REITs out there, but preferreds have run in (as has everything). Personally, I still like the RBS story on the must pays (reiterate I am long RBS L and NW C (old natwest), but there is risk in the position. A real high beta trade could be the NBG prefs (real high beta, emphatically).
There will be no divvie for a while. The PV could be interesting (assuming they begin to pay after 2 yrs), but I might swap into the RBS Ls or RBS Hs (actually leaning to the Hs, personally - might swap my Ls into Hs and pick up 65bps yield, just hate to put 3 bucks into the trade). I am not sure if this would be a wash "sale" for tax purposes (would love to hear an opinion on this).
As far as I can tell from reading the tender offer materials, RBS-F, which I hold, is not included in the preferreds for which dividend payments will be suspended. Do you know why dividends for some are being suspended and others are not? Obviously, the subtantial dividend is the only factor keeping the price at around $20. Thanks.
Was thinking of taking a(nother) "punt" at RBS preferreds with the expectation RBS will indeed recommence dividends in two years. If RBS recommences dividends on common shares will be closed "window" be shorter than two years maybe?
What I don't understand in the RBS I-IV are Trust Preferreds, meaning there is an intercompany debt obligation that they can't default or suffer cross-acceleration/def... on their other debt. In addition, they are pari passu with the non-cumulative preferreds meaning if RBS pays a dividend on one, it pays a dividend on all. The Trust Preferred can't sit on cash in the trust and must distribute the cash in the form of dividends. Net-Net, there is proviso that says they cut off the dividend unless "legally obligated", so my thinking is they will need to keep paying the dividend. Where am I off on my logic and understanding?
I am former holder of Pr-l sold at 16.25 sustaining a considerable loss. My logic in selling was that L was so far down the waterfall that they probably wouldn't be bought by RBS that combined with their stated intent to cut the dividend (if possible) I got scared and hit the exit. A major consideration in selling was my belief that the bank is controlled by a socialist government and generally socialists believe taking from the rich and giving to the poor is "good". Most holder of RBS preferred would be considered "Rich". Today RBS-L is less than $14.00 and weak.

Hai Zhang's EVERYWHERE - NOWHERE Exhibition Opens Today at Luise Ross Gallery
Everywhere - Nowhere shows us the world though the lens of Hai Zhang in his first one-man exhibition at Luise Ross Gallery.
From New York to Russia, California to China, Zhang works not as documentary photographer but rather as storyteller, building mysterious tableaux. His photographs are often from the fringes of life, lingering in a no mans land, where urban development meets the natural world, where dusk meets the dawn, and where a city dweller finds an unexpected moment of solitude. Laced with an edge of humor, a subtle wink to the viewer acknowledging human foibles, Zhang paints a picture of quiet beauty. By capturing fleeting moments, he implies a story that is left to the viewer to finish. Rather than tell the tale of a specific place, his ambiguous narratives are universal. They are both everywhere, and nowhere at once.
"Hai Zhang: Everywhere - Nowhere" will be on view today 5 June - 11 July 2014. Reception: Thursday 5 June 6 - 8 pm at the Luise Ross Gallery, 547 West 27 Street #504, New York, NY 10001 (Between 10th and 11th Avenues.) Take the C or E train to 23rd Street.

For a 4 year old? Just play really. Good quality art and craft stuff, waterproofs and warm clothing, magnifying glasses and binoculars, camping equipment. Maybe a balance bike or a seat for your bike. Stuff to help them help you cook, like small rolling pins and a step stool. Some really good books. That is pretty much all I'd say we use.

space, birds, animals in general, anything science related, shes talking about learning to read and enjoys some workbooks (the ones that aren't to repetative), anything that is hands on etc.
I would make sure to have a good encyclopedia and dictionary :) I use those two a lot. I need to invest in more children friendly (aka. with more pictures) ones.

The spring collection was intended to expound on the female body, sensuality and skin--but not nudity.
It is in no way my job to embody an idealized form of beauty and sensuality.
The premise comes and goes, however, and even the rest of "Clouds" focuses more on sensuality than sci-fi.
mid-14c., "the part of man that is concerned with the senses," from Old French sensualite "the five senses; impression," from Late Latin sensualitatem (nominative sensualitas) "capacity for sensation," from Latin sensualis "endowed with feeling, sensitive," from sensus "feeling" (see sense (n.)). Chiefly "animal instincts and appetites," hence "the lower nature regarded as a source of evil, lusts of the flesh" (1620s).
