The corrected release reads:
-- 'Mara Hoffman for Sebastian' Custom Scarf to be Sold with Sebastian Care Products Exclusively at Salons --
Sebastian Professional joins forces with the fiercely creative fashion designer Mara Hoffman to create its next limited-edition designer gift set. For Sebastian's Brazilian-inspired spring promotion, Hoffman designed a printed scarf using the bold colors and graphic prints that have made her a favorite among celebrities and trendsetters across the world. The scarf will be accompanied by Sebastian Professional Volupt Shampoo and Conditioner and sold in a gift set exclusively available at Sebastian salons for $25 beginning May/June 2013.
The gift set complements Sebastian's new 'Urban Explorers' hair fashion collection, which provides stylists and consumers with hairstyling techniques and inspiration through a global lens. Mara Hoffman's vibrant scarf design modeled after her spring 2013 collection celebrates the spirit of São Paolo, Brazil, one of the four cities that inspired the collection's looks.
Of the scarf Hoffman said, "This scarf is great for its versatility; it can be worn in multiple ways and is a fun way to incorporate a great print into any outfit."
Sebastian Professional lead hair stylist Thomas Dunkin likes the scarf best for hair styling: "This print is bold, beautiful and inspiring. Combine this with braids for a cool urban look or leave hair down and very natural, and tie the scarf in a bow at the crown for a more '50s vibe." Check the gift set for more expert step-by-step styling tricks from Thomas Dunkin.
Sebastian Professional and Mara Hoffman's fashion and beauty partnership began at Spring 2013 New York Fashion Week, where the hair team, led by Thomas Dunkin, created crimped, textured tresses for the models walking the runway. Whether worn as a headband or wrapped around the neck, the Mara Hoffman for Sebastian scarf gives style taste-makers the chance to add a touch of São Paolo flare to their everyday attire.
Sebastian Professional Volupt Shampoo & Conditioner:
- Volupt Shampoo – contains cushioning-particles to provide a volume boost and soft touch
- Volupt Conditioner – utilizes micro-lite technology to shield-in volume with lightweight softness
- Mara Hoffman for Sebastian scarf – custom designed scarf boasting bold and vivid color and style

The warehouseman's problem, namely, the coordinated motion planning for multiple independent objects confined in a room, is addressed. Several constraints are presented under which the problem becomes tractable, and polynomial time algorithms that guarantee a coordinated rearrangement under the given conditions are obtained. The concept of temporary storage space (TSS) is introduced as a general way of constraining free space. Each algorithm presented has a different set of constraints on the possible sizes and/or relative placements of the square blocks. For each case, an adequate TSS is proposed that guarantees rearrangement of

MultiChoice does not schedule channel programmes but buys ready-made local and international channels. Each channel schedules new and recurring programmes according to a programme or movie's license specification. MultiChoice arranges the channels into DStv packages and broadcasts the channels.
Internationally multi-channel platforms like DStv offer channels that have to include a mix of new and repeat programmes to make it affordable with the added benefit of creating catch-up viewing opportunities.
A single channel requires 8760 hours of content per year. DStv's repeat rate is lower than in most countries around the world. The movie repeat rate is for example up to 60% lower than similar digital television platforms abroad like SKY and DirecTV. (Source: Comsys).
Film and television studios produce a limited amount of programming each year. Hollywood, for example, only produces 600 new movies annually but a single movie channel contains 8760 hours per year. Once a movie has completed its cinema and video run, the first television appearance is on M-Net. To ensure a wide variety of the best content available, MultiChoice sources channels with movies and series from most top Hollywood studios like FOX, Warner Bros., Disney, Sony, NBC / Universal, CBS, Paramount, Dreamworks, MGM and independent studios like Mandate, Content Films, Summit Entertainment.
Repeat scheduling on each channel varies as channels have different format models and programmes have different ratings. A 24 hour channel like M-Net schedules every hour and block channels like The History Channel schedule 4 hour blocks which repeat over a 24 hour period.
We find that customers 'surf' through their favourite channels looking for something to watch, often complain about repeats. However, customers who plan their viewing upfront, including customers with PVRs, always complain that there is too much to watch. We have a number of resources available to help you plan your viewing:

Based on the gathered information, Solo Waste Management was able to put together a plan of attack for the introduction of recycling bins within the school and provided all students with training on the recycling process. When you look around the Sunshine Avenue Campus and see the bins with the yellow lids, remember you are a part of a greener, more eco smart school. Remember……...Reduce, Reuse and Recycle!

With financial markets rattled over the prospect that Monti might see his tenure in the premiership end before May if early elections are called, the premier insisted that the political crisis was "manageable." Monti contended his government, with its austerity agenda of spending cuts, higher taxes and pension reform, spared Italy — and with it, other nations in the eurozone — from succumbing to financial disaster.
Standard & Poor's rating agency on Friday indicated it could lower Italy's rating if the recession endures well into 2013, and it cited "uncertainty" the next Italian government can stay the tough course of austerity Monti's nonpartisan government managed to move through Parliament, thanks to the wide support.
Berlusconi declared "the campaign is already on" and insisted he's running "out of a sense of responsibility" toward recession-plagued Italy. For months, he had been coy about whether he would run again. But on Saturday he claimed that a search for a new leader, like the one he was when he burst into politics in the early 1990s, failed, and so "out of desperation" for lack of alternative, he was jumping into the race.
Italian media have reported that Berlusconi was particularly irked by Monti's Cabinet approval, earlier in the week, of a measure that would ban from running for office anyone sentenced to more than two years in prison after convictions are definitely upheld in cases of terrorism, organized crime and offenses in public office, including corruption.
Berlusconi's tax fraud conviction in October carries a four-year sentence, but the case could be dismissed if the statute of limitations runs out before all appeals are exhausted.
Critics have contended that Berlusconi expended much of his efforts as premier to push through legislation tailor-made to help him in his legal woes, and any new term in the premier's office could offer a similar opportunity.
Since his last election bid, in 2008, Berlusconi has lost the key support of its biggest coalition partner, the Northern League, which refused to support Monti's government. But the League, whose founder, Umberto Bossi, has been tarnished by scandal, hasn't ruled out forging a new election alliance with Berlusconi.

Yesterday on CNN, Congressman and GOP presidential candidate Ron Paul accused Rick Santorum of being "addicted" to conspiracies.
But is it really a conspiracy to think Paul is protecting Romney to get his son, Kentucky Senator Rand Paul, on the ballot as Romney's vice presidential pick should Romney win the nomination?
FLASHBACK: Rand Paul Says 'It Would Be An Honor' if Romney Asked Him to be VP
Kentucky's junior senator says it would be an honor to be considered as a possible running mate for Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney.
Senator Rand Paul first discussed his higher aspirations at the beginning of this year. He said he wouldn't close the door on being a Vice Presidential candidate. After a speech in Louisville today, Paul held that door firmly open, saying he wants to be part of the national debate.
Paul's name has swirled as a possible pick that would give Romney points with the Tea Party. When asked directly what he would say if Romney made the offer, Paul tried to punt.
"I don't know if I can answer that question, but I can say it would be an honor to be considered," he said.
Combine those comments with the fact that Ron Paul hasn't attacked Mitt Romney directly much this campaign cycle and you've got a match.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) Before everyone settled in for their fireworks on the Fourth of July, the Minnesota Wild put on quite a show themselves. Eschewing patience and pragmatism for go-for-it-all aggressiveness, Wild owner Craig Leipold shelled out 198 million for free agents Zach Parise and Ryan Suter to get the State of Hockey all amped up for the coming season. The season, it turns out, almost didn't come. And now the team that arguably lost more momentum during the NHL lockout than any other is eager to get to work at recapturing it. The NHL and the players' association reached accord on a new collective bargaining agreement Sunday, the 113th day of the lockout. After lawyers from both sides put the finishing touches on the contract and it is ratified, the players will commence with a training camp and get ready for the games to begin. "Everyone in our organization, the players, the fans were really excited in the summer," goalie Niklas Backstrom said in a phone interview Sunday n...

"I am impressed not only by the simplicity of the furniture, but also by the objects in the room," Spadaro writes.
The most profound truths are often the simplest ones, and Wallace was a genius at revealing the simplicity of profundity.
The media adore the storyline for its simplicity and the conflict narrative it presents.
late 14c., "singleness of nature, unity, indivisibility; immutability," from Old French simplicite (12c., Modern French simplicité), from Latin simplicitatem (nominative simplicitas) "state of being simple, frankness, openness, artlessness, candor, directness," from simplex (genitive simplicis) "simple" (see simplex). Sense of "ignorance" is from c.1400; that of "simplicity of expression, plainness of style" is early 15c.

Study Examines Quality Of Life After Stem Cell Transplantation
Published: Jul 8, 2009 4:53 pm
A study published in the July issue of the journal Blood examines quality of life in individuals who have undergone allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), a procedure often used to treat multiple myeloma patients.
Allogeneic HCT involves the transplantation of stem cells donated from one person to another person. Stem cells, found in the bone marrow, develop into red blood cells, white blood cells, and blood platelets. When a person with myeloma or another type of blood cancer goes through chemotherapy, not only do cancer cells get destroyed, but so do normal blood-cell producing stem cells. HCT restores a population of normal stem cells in the bone marrow following high doses of chemotherapy. It is a procedure that helps control and potentially cures blood cancers like myeloma.
The journal article reviewed current literature available on quality of life following allogeneic HCT in adult patients. Quality of life, according to the article, is "a dynamic, multifaceted concept related to physical, cognitive, emotional, and social functioning and well-being."
The authors of the article first acknowledge that certain factors describing the impact of HCT on quality of life, such as study design, patient population, and assessment instruments, may vary greatly from study to study. They state that a cohesive overview is needed to integrate all of the studies and fully describe the effects of all findings.
The article breaks quality of life into several subcategories – physical functioning, emotional functioning, social functioning, and role functioning – and examines how studies have found HCT to affect each one.
According to the article, studies have determined that patients who survive transplantation experience a rapid decline in physical functioning following the procedure. The worst effects are often seen between 30 and 100 days, but physical functioning begins to improve thereafter. Two studies found that physical functioning levels out after a year, and another one reported patients experiencing consistent improvement over four years.
According to one study, allogeneic HCT patients can expect long-term physical functioning similar to or worse than what they experienced before the transplantation. In particular, the study found that 25% of patients report major physical limitations at the time of transplantation, 44% at 90 days after treatment, 12% at one year after treatment, 22% at three years after treatment, and 18% at five years after treatment.
Emotional functioning is also most compromised early in the treatment process. The study reports that significant improvements in this area can be seen as early as hospital discharge to 100 days after transplantation. Some studies on emotional functioning following HCT suggest that patients remain fairly stable after the initial improvement, while other studies propose that additional improvement may be seen two to four years after transplantation occurs.
Although data on short-term social functioning conflict with one another, the article examines the more cohesive results on long-term social functioning. Studies found that after one year, survivors reported similar or better levels of social functioning compared to before the transplantation and showed continued improvement in years one through four.
The article states that role functioning – the ability of a person to perform at work, school, or homemaking – shows an immediate decline after allogeneic HCT but begins to improve as time passes. Though studies have differing results on whether role functioning remains the same or increases following transplantation, data suggest that by one year, 59 to 69 percent of survivors have returned to their designated tasks, and by five years post-HCT, over 84 percent of survivors have resumed their roles. According to the article authors, "The majority of survivors of allogeneic transplantation resume their roles at home and in the community after transplantation."
The article then looks at overall quality of life, determining that good overall quality of life is often reported by patients, especially as time from transplantation increases. The study's authors note that quality of life often drops immediately after allogeneic HCT, but then seems to stabilize or improve after 100 days, and may continue to increase. One study found that just four years after transplantation, 80 percent of survivors rated their overall quality of life as good to excellent.
Following this examination, the study makes certain comparisons between allogeneic HCT and other forms of cancer treatment, such as standard-dose chemotherapy and autologous HCT – in which stem cells are collected from the patient before chemotherapy, rather than from a donor.
Though some studies reported that patients took a longer time to recover from allogeneic HCT than autologous HCT, one of the largest studies to date suggests that there is no difference in quality of life by type of transplantation. The article sums up the results of various studies by stating that patients undergoing allogeneic transplantation report quality of life that is similar to or worse than patients undergoing autologous transplantation.
Varying results can also be seen in studies that compare allogeneic HCT with standard-dose chemotherapy. Some data suggest that patients have worse quality of life after HCT than after standard-dose chemotherapy, while other data suggests that it is relatively the same in both patient groups. The article authors acknowledge the need for further research, with special attention paid to rates of relapse.
The journal article then explains several predictors of quality of life: graft-versus-host disease, Reduced-intensity conditioning regimens, and personal characteristics.
Many studies have found that graft-versus-host disease, a condition that occurs when the body's immune system begins to attack transplanted stem cells, to be heavily associated with a poorer quality of life in areas such as physical functioning, role functioning, social functioning, mental health, and general health.
Reduced-intensity conditioning regimens attempt to stabilize transplantation and lower the risk of complications. Though there have not been many studies about the impact of Reduced-intensity conditioning on post-transplantation quality of life, the available data suggests that the overall quality of life is "good" following reduced-intensity conditioning.
The article then acknowledges a range of personal characteristics that have been associated with poorer quality of life, such as greater degree of symptoms, lower educational level, older age, being female, sexual impotence, advanced disease at the time of transplantation, greater interpersonal conflict, and reduced level of social support.
Not all studies have focused on negative effects of HCT on patients' quality of life. Several have looked at the patient-reported benefits of transplantation. Some of these benefits include an enhanced appreciation for life, different priorities, love and appreciation for family and friends, and greater religious or spiritual beliefs.
The article concludes with a look at how to improve one's quality of life using behavioral interventions. The authors state that the small amount of data currently available suggest that behavioral interventions, such as supervised exercise, show promise to maintain or improve quality of life after allogeneic HCT, but that more studies in this area are needed.
For more information on how transplantation affects quality of life, please see the study at the Blood Web site.

South Carolina is busy working on its 2013 recruiting class with a large group of official visitors this weekend.
That didn't stop them from getting a jump start on the 2014 recruiting class.
The Gamecocks landed three-star recruit Joe Blue from Dillon, SC today during an unofficial visit to the Gamecocks on Saturday.
Class of 2014 linebacker Joe Blue (Dillon/Dillon) has committed to South Carolina. #Gamecocks— TheBigSpur.com (@TheBigSpur247) January 19, 2013
Blue is a inside linebacker prospect who sported offers from Auburn, Florida, Georgia Tech and Southern Cal along with a few others before deciding that South Carolina was the place for him.
This continues the Dillon pipeline to South Carolina in recent years with WR Kwinton Smith and OL DJ Park already on campus and Bryce King set to enroll this summer.
Blue brings a lot to the table for South Carolina at a position they are looking to overhaul following the graduation of several senior linebackers after the 2012 season. South Carolina is looking to add a few more linebackers in the 2013 class but picking up Blue gives them another option in the future. There's also the possibility that Blue could find himself on the offensive side of the football as a potential fullback for the Gamecocks.
Regardless whether it's offense or defense, you can tell from the highlight reel that he can excel when given a chance. On defense, he brings a lot of pressure off the edge for Dillon and has a motor that doesn't give up. He's routinely in the backfield making solid tackles and keep the offense at bay. He even shows off some nice coverage skills and closing speed on the receiver. While on offense, he's seen working out of the Wildcat for Dillon and looks to be a strong North/South runner who just bulldozes his opponents. He's a sure ball-handler and just gains yards after contact.
South Carolina has found themselves quite a catch with their first recruit of the 2014 class.

comment:2 Changed 4 years ago by lana_mussi
it still occurs to me on Windows 7 Home Premium in IE8.0.76 i always copy the table from the CKeditor from the same browser.
Right now, i could reproduce it only when i marked all the bullet points entries with the mouse and then pressed a key. But when i marked only some of the entries - i could delete them without any problem.

A few days ago, I received an email question from a reader named Maureen.
Can you help me identify things to do with a toddler within 30 miles of The Villages? she wrote.
GREAT question.
The Villages, as you may or may not know, is a mega retirement community in Central Florida. There's lots to do for active adults, from golf to shopping to the community's Lifelong Learning College.
But when the grandkids come to visit, you'll need an arsenal of toddler entertainment up your sleeve. Here are the suggestions I shared with Maureen; as the mom of a 20-month-old girl myself, I'll be bookmarking these ideas, too.
- At DIY Studio in Ocala, you can paint your own pottery or canvas. My daughter has enjoyed this activity since she was only a few months old.
- Toddlers may not be comfortable riding a horse at one of Ocala's many stables, but Best Hay Farm and Petting Zoo offers and up-close encounters with docile animals, plus pony rides.
- The Discovery Center in Ocala offers preschool programming that includes songs, art projects and more.
- The public library in Bushnell holds toddler time and story time -- another favorite activity of my daughter!
- The Ocala Drive-In shows some children's movies, and since you're in your own car (or lawn chairs), toddlers can be as loud as they want.
As you can see, most of the toddler action is in Ocala. For additional suggestions, contact the Ocala/Marion County Visitors and Convention Bureau at 352-438-2800.
And for things to do all around Florida, check out my Smart Travel page. You can also follow me on Twitter and Facebook.

For a good night sleep.
I was skeptical as I have tried many supplements to help me get a good nights sleep. After a couple of continuous nights of restful sleep, I am sold! I will not go another night without Pheni Tropic by Biotics Research! I have bought a bottle for a friend hoping it will help her as well. Let's keep our fingers crossed :)
Provides a good night sleep without the hangover feeling the next morning.
Running out!

Finally sleep!
I have had insomnia for years now. My sleep was so jacked up, due to Lyme, my DO had me on PheniTropic by Biotics Research along with Somni -TR and 5HTP. Amazing sleep which directly correlates to less pain and better mood. I did not know about the mood support until reading the other reviews. When I run out of this I notice the difference within days! It really is amazing.

Great product for sleeping!
PheniTropic by Biotics Research was suggested to me by my MD. I have used it for a few months now and what I thought would be a life long issue with insomnia seems to be allowing me some relief on what feels like a deeper level and not just knocking me out for the night like some medicines.
Helps with sleeping cycle.

Great product!!!
PheniTropic by Biotics Research has been a real helper for evening relaxation and sleeping. I have been taking PheniTropic for about a year and finally talked my husband into using it too. We're both very satisfied customers.
PheniTropic works great. My brother-in-law introduced me to it. I've since recommended it to one of my sisters and all three of my daughters.
Nothing to dislike.

Adverse reaction
I took a 100mg dose of PheniTrophic by Biotics Research. After about 10 minutes I felt weird, I had shortness of breath, a hot rush, tingling all over, my heart was racing and pounding, tightness in chest. It was so scary! It went away after about a minute. I googled shortness of breath with this product and read on some message boards that others had the same experience. Also googled GABA and shortness of breath.

Great for insomniac!
Have tried PheniTropic by Biotics Research for several nights and it helps me go into a deep sleep when nothing else helped. Had to come off ambien because of negative side effects and after trying everything thing else out there this worked. Won't take it every night but when I need to really sleep.
Works very well.

Great product!
no problems with it so far!
It was prescribed by my science based Naturopathic Doctor to decrease high levels of the neurotransmitter norepinephrine. It began working immediately. I'm very thankful for this product.

Worked, but with a price
I took PheniTropic by Biotics Research to help with insomnia, and it did work. It made me sleepy, which lasted throughout the night and I was able to get a continuous sleep, but unfortunately it left me with a terrible hangover throughout the next day. I took it again the next night, and had the same result. However, I have always been very sensitive to drugs and often have this reaction to many medications. This may not be a pharmaceutical, but it is synthesized, as far as I know. I have two friends who have taken it with great success and no hangovers. It can be habit forming, so it is best to take it for short period, on and off.
It did help me sleep.
I had a vey unpleasant hangover the next day.

some times it works and when it doesn't I get so edgy that I want to take a lunesta, that would be after I have taken 2 PheniTropic. Is that harmful? I am a caregiver and I have to have my sleep but I go to bed with a lot on my mind.A

"Not qute Smile but close enough."
What did you think of this review?
Use Trust Points to see how much you can rely on this review.
Smiley Smile is the twelfth studio album by The Beach Boys, issued in 1967. Released in the place of the much-touted Smile, Smiley Smile is widely considered to be under-produced, and it was received with indifference and confusion upon its unveiling.[1] However, Smiley Smile has managed to grow in stature over the years to become a cult favorite in The Beach Boys' recorded catalog.[1]

CAR Magazine got its hands on the 1-series M coupe and the conclusion is like that of the other auto magazines before it – that it is a proper M car, no doubt. Their review focused on comparing the 1M coupe to other BMW offerings (both M and non-M) in assessing whether they felt the 1M was a proper M car and which, if any, of its technology and engineering was a step forward for the M division. Catch some of their notable findings inside.… CONTINUED
The 1M continues to impress auto publications worldwide, this time at the hands of Autocar, who say that the 1M coupe is not a junior M3, as many suggested it would be, but has its own distinct character and, in real-world terms, is a good deal faster than its more expensive sibling.
The most renowned German sports car magazine Sport Auto has published their review. The biggest news first, the 1M did a 1:14.1 in Hockenheim. To add some perspective, the fastest time Sport Auto got for the M3 was 1:14.2 in an E92 M3 ZCP DCT.
Sport Auto clocked 4.7 seconds for 0-62mph and 17.2 seconds for 0-124mph. But it's not only the measurable performance that impressed the reviewers, it's also the fun. Purely a subjective matter, but the 1M got 10 out of 10 points for … CONTINUED
Another 1M review is in from Germany. AMS got their hands on a 1-series M Coupé, and we've translated the essential details from their review. In short, AMS considers the 1M one of the best sports cars available but found some drawbacks in daily use and under less than ideal conditions. They clocked an amazing 4.7 seconds for 0-62mph which is on par with the E9x M3 they've tested previously. Equally impressive, 0-124mph only took 16.6 seconds while returing an average of 18.2 mpg. AMS gave … CONTINUED
Autobild has just published a comparison test between the 1M and the Porsche Cayman R. We're happy to share that the 1M won this comparison (besting the Cayman R by 1 point). The 1M coupe performs only slightly worse than the Cayman R, yet it offers better overall comfort and low-end power. All this for roughly EUR 25k less! More inside…
The reviews for the 1M have been pouring in recently, with one review after another shining very positive light on the little M car, especially when compared to various rivals.
Now AutoExpress magazine has come in with their own review. Right off the bat, the car they got to test was a Black Sapphire Metallic version, which is something welcome to the 1M fans who desperatly want to see more IRL photos of the car in black.
Going a step beyond just the looks of the car, the … CONTINUED
Here it is, C&D's shootout of the 1M, TT-RS, G37 IPL, in their video review. Watch live footage and commentary as the BMW 1M Coupe takes the victory.
The guys at driving-fun.com recently had the opportunity to drive a Swedish owner's new 1M coupe (who seems to be making the rounds at the major European tracks with his new 1M — first the Spa-Francorchamps and the Nurburgring) at the Dutch Zandvoort track. Here were their impressions of the 1M on the circuit.
Car and Driver posts up their first drive initial impressions of the 1M coupe, calling it great and weird and fun, with super-quick steering and go-kart like feel, with stunning grip. Check out the rest of their impressions inside.
Automobile Magazine's Georg Kacher chimes in with his first drive review of a 1M coupe test prototype. The first press drives of the production 1M is set to begin soon, so stay tuned for those reviews.
Car and Driver has the very first 1M vs. competition shootout, and the 1M emerged victorious over some formidable competition on some formidable grounds – versus the Audi TT RS and the Infiniti IPL G37 at the famed Tail of the Dragon roads. The 1M coupe was the "clear winner," and described as neither a performance poseur nor a cynical styling exercise.
Bimmer Magazine chimes in with their review of a pre-production 1 series M coupe test drive. In sum, they are big fans of the 1M, saying that it has superb steering and tremendous grip and effectively recaptures the spirit of the E30 M3.
Autoblog has posted its first drive impressions of the 1-series M Coupe prototype from their test drive in Germany. Not much new info is divulged, but the general reaction is a positive one.
The fifth review from a 1addicts member who attended the BMW 1 series M coupe test drive event is in. This one features feedback from the perspective of an E46 M3 owner. Read on inside.
This is the most comprehensive review yet of the 1-series M coupe from BMW's pre-drive event. See how the 1M coupe felt from the perspective of an E30 M3 owner who also happens to be a driving instructor.
Next up is an excellent written review of the 1 series M coupe from a 135i owner's perspective. Woland's Advocate loved the 1m coupe prototype and it shows in his expertly written words. Check it out inside!
I am the only Asian test driver of this event.
I have a Z4 23i & a X5 30xdrive. I have driven 135 convertible before.
The first impression was not so impressive because the real shape of the car was masked by the camouflage. But I noticed the back of the car was so wide. The sound of starting the engine was wonderful. The clutch is not extremely hard. The gear shift distance is short & precise. Easy to handle (this is … CONTINUED
Well respected auto journalist Chris Harris of EVO shares his glowing review of the 1M Coupe in a rare test drive video. Anyone excited before about the 1M coupe will be even giddier after hearing that it feels like a true M car, for real enthusiasts!

In Competition No. 2728 you were asked to provide a parody, with a Christmas connection, of a living British writer with an international reputation.
The assignment invited you to follow in the mighty footsteps of Max Beerbohm, whose talent for parody few have matched. His A Christmas Garland, whose centenary falls this year, is considered one of the finest collections of parodies ever written in English, and on its publication reviewers agreed that not only had he captured the styles of his subjects but appeared to have gained 'temporary loan of their minds' too.
A tough act to follow, then. Derek Morgan, G.M. Davis, David Mackie, Shirley Curran and Chris O'Carroll impressed, but first prize goes to Alan Millard. His fellow winners get £25 each.
'So what do we have?' said Waxforth, unbuttoning his jacket and patting his paunch.
Detective Inspector Boredom straightened his tie. 'Nothing much,' he said, 'signs of a break-in, blood in the hearth but no body.'
'And this?' said Waxforth, scooping up a black deposit from the carpet. 'Here, sniff it, Mick!?'
Boredom, who prided himself on his prim appearance, was shying away when Mrs Groper appeared with the tea. 'The doors and windows were locked,' she insisted.
Waxforth, intrigued by the blood, looked up at Boredom. 'Rather pale, don't you think, Mick? Forensics will know but to me it smells like sherry.'
'Will whoever it was return?' asked Mrs Groper.
'Not this year,' smiled Waxforth, 'Soot on the carpet, sherry in the hearth and no means of access apart from the chimney. I think the case is wrapped up. Come along Boredom! The Kingsmockem Arms should still be open.'

Dec 24th
Up most of last night following a troublesome encounter with a chicken biryani at an establishment recommended by P., who is evidently not such a martyr to his inner workings as I find I have become. Spent a quiet day in anticipation of a similarly quiet one tomorrow: I have passed the age at which gaudy wrappings and unfortunate home-baking offer any pleasures.
I was closing the shutters against the waning day when a feverish pounding beset my front door, of the kind which would set Mam off on one of her broadsides against casual callers or on door-knocker etiquette. If it was well-meaning Mrs R with a plate of sweetmeats I supposed I could at least be civil. I set my face in a half-smile, opened the door — and there were The Waits: not especially restful, barely merry and hardly gentlemen. I checked my pockets for funds.
Carolyn Thomas-Coxhead/Alan Bennett
It is entirely possible that the knock came before the voices: the sequence shifts as I reach for it. I remember the occasion as if it were yesterday but yesterday can be another country these days; I have become the fool of memory. Anyway, the knock happened; always a moment of dread for me. I know that if I open my door I will admit something of the outside. And one day the something will be death. At school I lit upon timor mortis as a time-honoured cloak for my naked fear. But then, as now, it did nothing to muffle my night terrors.
I slid home the fastening on the inadequate chain and opened the door. A hooded figure brought its face up to the crack. 'Merry Christmas, sir. We sing tidings of comfort and joy.'
I tipped Charon a fiver to go away.
W.J. Webster/Julian Barnes
A headless odalisque in a rubber suit
has opened its legs
on the kitchen table
for the cook's spelunking finger.
The farce complete, he piles
raw sprouts, stripped for their sauna,
like the delicate corpses
of virid owlets.
The captive pudding fumes in the cauldron
like a trapped genie.
On the cake's starched snowfield
a dying explorer has piddled
a festive greeting
in porphyritic urine.
Penelope Mackie/Craig Raine
I have as much sense of fun as the next person, and I can see good psychological reasons to celebrate a festival in mid-winter (though the winter solstice would be a much more rational choice of date). I believe in holly, and in mince pies. But then I have seen mince pies, I have smelt them, tasted them. Berkeleyans may say that does not constitute absolute proof of their existence, but I am prepared to be pragmatic on that score. Flying reindeers, however, are a step too far. There is nothing in the physiology or genetic history of the reindeer that suggests that it flies, has ever flown, or ever will fly. Moreover, I have yet to meet a credible witness who will swear to have seen one flying. We should consign the flying reindeer forthwith to the same oblivion as Bertrand Russell's hypothetical orbiting teapot.
Noel Petty/Richard Dawkins
Precious Ramotswe looked forgivingly at Grace Radiphuti. 'Why don't you put the kettle on and we'll have a refreshing cup of redbush tea.' Grace had, yet again, put her foot in it and antagonised Mr J.L.B. Matekoni's apprentices, but Mma Ramotswe was right: things always looked better after a cup of tea. Grace was soon smiling as she remembered her greatest achievement — being the only person ever to gain 90 per cent at the Botswana Secretarial College. But then her face fell. She'd only four days to make up her mind about which shoes to buy for the Christmas party at Phuti's shop — the red or the silver — and they'd both looked so pretty when she'd tried them on. She sighed. 'Shall I make another pot of redbush tea?' she asked. 'What a good idea, Mma Radiphuti! We've only had six cups this morning and my traditional build makes me very thirsty!'
