> Mining Tax passage hides bitter pill for employers
Mining Tax passage hides bitter pill for employers
Release Date: 20/03/2012
Statement by Peter Anderson, Chief Executive
Last night's passage of the mining tax hides a bitter pill for the nations one million employers – higher compulsory superannuation payments in seven of the next eight years, says Australia's leading and most representative business association, the Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ACCI).
Speaking after the Senate vote, ACCI Chief Executive Peter Anderson said: "The mining tax passage doesn't spread the benefit of the mining tax boom to non-mining business because hidden in the detail is a 3% or $20 billion per year rise in the superannuation levy paid by employers large and small".
"Last week's debate about business tax concessions in the mining tax was a sideshow when understood that today's superannuation levy increase swamps the value of the tax concessions in every category of employing business, large and small. And there are more employers paying the levy than there are incorporated businesses getting a tax cut."
"Seen in the context of the superannuation levy, the mining tax passage has been a dark period in transparency and public policy for the Australian parliament. In short, the parliament misled the public and short-changed one million employers:
the public think the mining tax is paying for higher superannuation when truth is, one million employers and small businesses are;
the superannuation levy was hidden in the mining tax Bills, which limited parliamentary transparency and scrutiny;
the tax concessions to non-mining businesses fail to even nearly compensate for the 3% increase in payroll levy.
"It's unbelievable that a 3% levy increase on the payroll of a million private businesses has been imposed without a funding basis. Yet that is what the government has done. It has legislated the levy rise and will work out how to pay for it later. There isn't even the wage trade-off provision that the Keating government legislated when the super levy started in 1992."
"And it's insulting to the nations employers for the Senate to report, as it did last week, that because the increase applies in seven stages it can be afforded. How increasing a payroll levy every year for the next seven years ends up making the levy affordable is beyond logic". Mr Anderson said.
With the Bills passed, ACCI is now calling on the government and the Coalition to both find a funding base for the levy rise, and to announce their plans on budget night 2012, well in advance of the first rise in the superannuation levy in July 2013.

Ok want to pick on the smart brains in a jar here..
There should be a better way for complete handsfree Siri requests. Pressing a button to talk, to me is "not there yet". I hope that for a not so distant future upgrade the iPhone be programmed so that the mic is active when the iPhone is not being used and a small background app scan or listens for a specific keyword or phrase to activate Siri.
A handsfree interactive session would be something like:
Human: - talking to other humans then suddenly says "Siri, can you help?"
The small program picks up the phrase and activates Siri (a much larger battery eating application).
Siri: "How can I assist?" (or anything else not corny)
Human: -whatever his normal request is...
See, no pressing a button and waiting several seconds for a response. If that happends, I hope Apple allows the customer have the liberty to program/customize any phrase or keyword he desires. Therefore the app can be of smaller footprint and easier to listen regardless of language, accent and so on. I imagine some of us will have something like "Computer" in a Star Trek kind of way or "Mother" like in Aliens or "HAL 9000"... You guys get the point.
Sadly, many customers will not use Siri much because of the pressing the button and waiting for Siri to come up thing. - Lazyiness? well yes! That is what technology is all about, making us lazy... Wall-e anyone? Remember the humans in the Axiom Starliner?
The iPhone is the future... Actually, I don't think the name iPhone pays tribute to what it really is.
What are your thoughts on all this?
What would prevent a mic from being active all the time?
Would you prefer to use the button instead?

OLD YELLER: Walt Disney's first and quintessential film about a boy's love for his dog is now an American original as much as it is a Disney classic. No film better portrays the powerful emotions of hope, courage, and friendship. When his younger brother adopts a frisky lop-eared stray, 15-year-old Travis (Tommy Kirk), acting "man-of-the-house," tries to shoo him away. But Old Yeller soon proves he is anything but "yellow" when he protects the family farm and saves Travis' life. From its charmin

So we bought a van at another nearby dealer, and the experience wasn't a good one--high pressure sales and other underhanded tactics from start to finish.

I Drove all the way out there (35 miles) but the salesman said he was "too busy" and asked someone else to ride with me. This person didn't seem to know anything about the car including how to lower the top. When we got back the salesman was still "too busy". A couple of days later I called the salesman again and told him that I was very interested in buying the car. I told him that I do not like to haggle over the price. Was the price on the listing their best price? He said he thought there was a little wiggle room. He said he would talk to his manager and call me right back. He never did call back. He must have gotten "too busy" again. PS I was prepared to pay the listed price."

Ammons tried to get Bartiromo to remove the offending posts.
Ammons is blunt: "The physical reconnection is over in minutes."
I called Sgt. Ammons a few weeks after the course ended to ask how his family responded to his newly sensitized behavior.
another form of the name Ben-ammi, the son of Lot (Gen. 19:38). This name is also used for his posterity (Ps. 83:7).

The New Jersey Department of Education is responsible for a variety of functions and services which include certification of teachers and administrators; application to be an approved provider; purchasing; offering grant opportunities; and various other services.
The Office of State Assessments (OSA) coordinates the development and implementation of New Jersey's statewide assessment program, which is designed to measure student attainment of the New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards, and the Common Core State Standards. The OSA works collaboratively, within the department, and with school districts, to collect and report information about student academic achievement in order to inform instruction, increase student learning, and help parents and the public assess the effectiveness of their schools.
Northfield Community School NJASK Parent Information Meeting
The Federal Legislation No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB) requires that each state administer annual standards-based assessments to students in grades 3 through 8, and at least once in high school. Federal expectation is that each state will provide tests that are grounded in rigorous state and national content standards and that assess student achievement in language arts literacy, mathematics and, at three benchmark grade levels, science.
The New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards were first adopted by the State Board of Education in 1996. The standards describe what students should know and be able to do upon completion of a thirteen-year public education and provide local school districts with clear and specific benchmarks for student achievement in nine content areas. The Common Core State Standards are national standards that New Jersey has adopted in the content areas of Mathematics and Language Arts.
The No Child Left behind Act (NCLB) of 2001 was signed into law on January 8, 2002 by President Bush. The Act represents the President's education reform plan and contains the most sweeping changes to the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) since it was enacted in 1965. NCLB changes the federal government's role in K-12 education by focusing on school success as measured by student achievement. The Act also contains the President's four basic education reform principles:
» stronger accountability for results,
The New Jersey Department of Education provides a list of technology tools and ideas for use in the classroom, and which are also included in the Content Standards under Classroom Application Documents and/or Unit/Lesson Plan exemplars.

Ok, so I'm waiting for that.
yeah its messed my fsx up help guys
@krw86- If you want to restore your FSX back to normal, you can just un-install this addon and the addon manager and it should fix your FSX. or you could do what I did and that was make a backup copy of the originals. There is an older patcher version which is way better then this one where it actually patches the files and prevents file replacement. Besides this is not even V2.5
Thanks guys I got rid of it with a bit of work....

First question, who's the money going to?
Second question, i mean i don't mind a few sentimental things that Golden Girls fans would want like some wardrobe items and signed scripts etc, but that site contains passports, bank statements, cancelled cheques, medication bottles, driving licenses etc - it just seems a step so far..I cannot help think that this wasn't what Rue probably wanted - she probably was happy for a few things to be auctioned off. If the family are benefiting from this...i am really surprised most people in Hollywood i'm sure as was Rue will have been quite wealthy never mind what they spent, the Golden Girls all had big salaries near the end of the series.
Betty's reaction that personal letters between her and Rue are part of it is shocking, its seems abit of a sale to Betty...Betty seems abit awkward and shocked at some stages. Notably the letters did not go for sale - i'm sure Betty will have had that stopped.
As I understand it from that video, the auction items are going to the 23 animal charities Rue supported. (That auctioneer is painful to watch.)
I don't know, it's down to Rue and what she wanted. If her family have the personal bits they wanted, then why not? They're only things after all, and if the proceeds are going to good causes, surely a good thing.
But I do agree re the personal letters.

text: OffBeat Sorry, wearables: No one on Star Trek cared about smartwatches July 16, 2014 3:53 PM Tom Cheredar 0 If you're not reaching, engaging, and monetizing customers on mobile, you're likely losing them to someone else. Register now for the 8th annual MobileBeat, July 13-14, where the best and brightest will be exploring the latest strategies and tactics in the mobile space. The Star Trek franchise has done a lot of amazing things for our society by inspiring people to think of ways to advance technology, such as smartphones, tablets, and warp drives. It's even inspired folk to become astronauts. But one thing that never popped up on the TV show? Smartwatches. However, at least one developer disregarded this detail and made an Android Wear app featuring the LCARS user interface design from Star Trek Federation computers. (Multiple versions of this app already exist for both iOS and Android smartphones and tablets.) The app, called Starwatch, is free in the Google Play store. Other than looking kinda geeky, it doesn't really do much more than show you the time and date. And apparently Starwatch developer Daniele Bonaldo is even working on a version that will fit round-face watches as well. I'm all for goofy apps the celebrate beloved TV shows, but this one sort of just reinforces my (and others) suspicions that no one outside of Silicon Valley really cares about owning a smartwatch. That said, I also can't recall any instances where a main character from Star Trek ever tapped a connected smartwatch for any reason. Now I'm not saying smartwatches will never rise to the level of popularity as other mobile devices, because such predictions are usually foolish in the tech news biz. But I do maintain that no one has created a smartwatch that's compelling enough to change my mind about owning one, even if you can download geeky/cool apps like Starwatch on them. [And now, dear readers, I welcome your judgment of just how right or wrong I am in the comment section below.]

clutch noises

Joined: Sep 2008

I am now having exactly this problem on my '08 990. It started a few weeks ago as the temperatures started to go down, and now it does it every damn morning.
I let the clutch out to go, and the bike starts to shudder as if the clutch is slipping, and then WACK, it bites and I shoot forward. I have not been able to stop myself instinctivley pulling the clutch lever back in immediately yet. Each time it does this the bike is thrown forward at 5-10mph, and once at that speed I can let the clutch out and set off fairly smoothly, although there is still plenty of shudder.
Once I've been on the move for a minute or so there is no problem whatsoever.
It is obviously a cold start related issue, as when I start the bike up to go home again in the evening, it doesn't happen, even if it is really cold.
To overcome the problem I obviously need to warm up the clutch before I set off, but how can this be done? Will blipping the engine help? How about putting it on the centre stand and letting it into first gear and letting it spin along for a bit?
Any thoughts?
The bike ghas 20,000 miles on it, and now I think about it, it has pretty much always been unpleasant when I first set off in the morning. It used to make a nasty scraping noise from the transmission when I set off, but there was no shuddering or biting going on.
The bike has just been for a major service, so maybe they changed the oil or something. I will check this too.

PRLog - June 20, 2014 - KHARKOV, Ukraine -- UFMA's recent study confirmed that 90 percent of beautiful Ukrainian women in Ukraine prefer foreign men for dating and marriage. In same report, only 10 percent women confessed that they would like to live with men who are related with Ukraine. However the huge percentage of women said that they would be happy with foreign men. http://www.ukrainianfiancee.com/
Best ukrainian brides at UFMA
The reason behind the same is current financial condition of Ukraine. There is no high paying good jobs and people are living difficult lives there. Ukraine girls want to have a prosperous and contented life for their families, they look for the life partner who can provide them good and stable future. They want men who can give their children great future ahead. Thus most of women in Ukraine are looking for contentment abroad and love to date and marry men from different countries. http://www.ukrainianfiancee.com/
Men from other countries also want to be with Ukrainian girls since these women are beautiful, intelligent, educated and stylish. They respect their husband a lot and are loyal to them.
Ukrainian Fiancee Marriage Agency (UFMA) is a Kharkov, Ukraine marriage agency that is helping both men and women to find their love match. Any man related with any country can register on the site and get access to the beautifulUkrainian women likewise women from Ukraine can also be connected with their dream man through UFMA. http://www.ukrainianfiancee.com/
Ukrainian Fiancee Marriage Agency has created a number of happy and satisfied families. The divorce rates of married couples by the company are zero percent. All the couples are living great life together with their babies.

This is from an article about AA this year
Jay Bruce, OF (Chattanooga Lookouts)
Despite playing in the same circuit as heralded prospects like Justin Upton and Cameron Maybin, Bruce was named the best prospect in the Midwest League last year. The 19-year-old former first-rounder hit .291 with 16 homers, a league-leading 42 doubles, 81 RBIs and 19 stolen bases at Dayton. Bruce uses quick hands and a smooth swing to turn on an inside heater and go the other way with an outside pitch, tools that helped him earn MVP honors at the Midwest League All-Star Game. His plate discipline could use some work (106 strikeouts in 444 at-bats), so Cincinnati will send him to Chattanooga.

small package, surprisingly good sound12/16/2012
liked mine so much, I have purchased and given to my son and another to my friend who has a 20,000 dollar sound room - he takes this on his vacations - easier to pack ;-)), highly recommend
Cute and efficient!8/16/2012
The box delivers great sound for its size. One of my favorite features is the ability of the product to go from phone back to speaker without hitting a button. I like the bluetooth capability and the calls are clear. I'm a big music listener and appreciate the quality of sound coming out of it with a lot of distortion. The only issue I have is that when in bluetooth you can't quite tell how loud it's going to start out, this is a problem if you're in an office setting.So watch the sound!
Great sound from a tiny box2/23/2012
I was surprised at how small the unit was and didn't expect much from it. When I charged it and got it working, I was even more surprised at how good the sound was.1 Helpful | 0 Not Helpful

'Survivor' takes TV news job in North CarolinaGREENSBORO, N.C. - Jeff Varner, who was bumped from ''Survivor'' in 2001, has a new job in reality television: TV newsman. Varner will join WGHP, the Fox affiliate based in High Point, as a weekend anchor, the station announced Friday. Prior to his stint on ''Survivor,'' Varner worked as an Internet project manager in New York City and earned a journalism degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Still, he says his ''Survivor'' ties have created some career challenges. Clancy donates $2 million to eye research BALTIMORE - Author Tom Clancy, who reaped millions from blockbusters such as ''Patriot Games'' and ''The Hunt for Red October,'' wants people to see life a little more clearly. To that end, he has donated $2 million to fund a professorship in ophthalmology at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. The first doctor to hold the seat being funded by Clancy's donation, Dr. Terrence P. O'Brien, has treated the writer, who was diagnosed in 2001 with pathological myopia. The rare type of nearsightedness, in which the eyeball continues to elongate, can lead to profound vision loss. 'Wheel' stars satisfied with career paths KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Pat Sajak and Vanna White know where they stand in history. It's been more than two decades since Sajak, 58, and White, 48, joined the ''Wheel of Fortune'' game show. But the co-hosts who so perfectly synchronize the motions of spinning the wheel and turning the letters say this will be the last stop in their careers. ''I'm at peace with what my obituary's going to say,'' said Sajak, who was taping episodes of ''Wheel'' this weekend on the show's first-ever stop in Kansas City. Moby talks about life of poverty before stardom NEW YORK - Even though he's now a rich musician, Moby is still affected by the poverty of his youth. In an interview with The Associated Press, Moby says he and his mother grew up on welfare in a tony section of Connecticut. ''I was the only poor person I'd ever met, and it has kind of given me this lifelong feeling that I'm a second-class citizen, because in my formative years I was a second-class citizen,'' he told the AP. - From wire reports

text: Having kids isn't easy. You can't get out to exercise so easily when you realize that you have to pull your own weight and to help with the child rearing. When I was young and active, I had a pretty good body. Duty and countless cinnamon rolls took that all away. But like many suburban dads my age, my physique has begun to concern me, and now, I want to look like a superhero. I wasn't blessed with the chiseled good looks or the 6 foot 2 or more height, but I do have broad shoulders and good proportions. I could do it! With a bit of focus and iron-will, I can get that chiseled, muscular body. So this article caught my eye. Excerpt: "When I'm hired to get an athlete, bodybuilder, or actor into the best shape of his life – to strip him of virtually all body fat while adding 15 to 20 pounds of functional "show" muscle – I have hundreds, maybe thousands, of protocols I can use to help him reach that goal."

Frank Pignanelli & LaVarr Webb: Huntsman, Herbert are Utah's political odd couple
Gov. Jon Huntsman Jr. and his lieutenant governor, Gary Herbert, are starting to be viewed as something of a political odd couple. Huntsman is quickly developing a national reputation as a Republican moderate with presidential ambitions, while Herbert remains a traditional Utah conservative who will seek the 2012 GOP gubernatorial nomination. This raises some intriguing questions:
How are Huntsman and Herbert different in their positions on issues and ideological outlooks?
There are a number of differences, both in tone and substance. For example, Huntsman supports civil unions for gay couples, while Herbert does not. Huntsman is quite moderate on environmental issues, signing on to the Western Climate Initiative cap-and-trade proposals to reduce carbon emissions. Herbert attends meetings with traditional energy developers and expresses strong support for carbon-based energy sources. He isn't jumping on the global warming bandwagon. Herbert recently attended a planning meeting of the Utah Public Lands Multiple Use Coalition, which intends to ignite a second "Sagebrush Rebellion" to "take back Utah" from federal bureaucrats. In interviews with the national news media, Huntsman criticizes congressional conservatives in Washington as out-of-touch. Herbert is much more respectful of party elders, and he attends and speaks at most county Republican conventions, where he tosses out conservative red meat to the delegates. Huntsman supported John McCain. Herbert supported Mitt Romney.
With those rather stark differences, they must have some very interesting private meetings. Do they ever yell at each other?
Actually, no. In fact, just the opposite. They like each other and get along very well. They understand they are playing different roles, but they view them as complementary. They didn't plan it out this way, but the relationship has evolved into something that actually works quite well for both of them. Huntsman can take moderate positions on national issues and build his reputation as he desires, while Herbert is back home soothing the conservative Republican base, attending and speaking at their gatherings, and smoothing over any hurt feelings.
Herbert is very loyal to Huntsman. He says they are different but complementary, in perfect harmony on the big goals of running the state well, bolstering the economy and building a great education system. On some issues they differ. When Herbert is asked if he agrees with every position Huntsman has taken, he replies that even he and his wife don't agree on everything. Herbert says both he and Huntsman are "right of center," and he defends Huntsman as a tax-cutter, supporter of school vouchers and as someone with enormous political skills who can negotiate common-sense solutions in the middle ground on divisive political issues. Herbert describes himself as a good soldier whose job is to help Huntsman be the best governor he can be.
Will Huntsman's moderate positions hurt Herbert in his 2012 gubernatorial bid?
It's clearly a tightrope that Herbert must walk. He has to remain loyal, while demonstrating his independence on some issues. But he is helped by the fact that the Huntsman-Herbert administration is enormously popular with the general public, enjoying high approval ratings even in a down economy. Herbert's challenge is to remain popular with the conservative base that is a little annoyed by Huntsman. These conservatives are represented disproportionately in party caucuses and among delegates who will have a big voice in choosing the next GOP gubernatorial nominee.
Herbert is already working hard on his gubernatorial bid. His job portfolio as lieutenant governor, including transportation, rural affairs, water and homeland security, requires him to travel the state, meeting with local political, business and civic leaders. He is already receiving commitments of support from some leaders. He stays in close touch with local party leaders. But some politicos question whether Herbert can successfully establish a separate conservative identity apart from Huntsman.

Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 day to 1 weekPros:
* Looks exactly like the real Death Note from the anime and that's really all that matters
* The soundtrack CD looked dodgy as hell - Didn't mind since it basically went straight into the trash
* Goose quill didn't work well - but I don't really care
* Rules had Chinese translations and the reasons for deaths were written in Chinese instead of Japanese
I was really after the notebook and the quill and CD were really extra bonues
If you're a Death Note fan, buy it! It's actually cheaper here than from other places.

Take control of the command line
Only the Beginning
To go much beyond this point, you really need to know some Bash scripting. Scripting can expand the range of possibilities in a huge way. In Debian, for example, a script is used in .bash_logout to clear the screen to ensure your privacy when you exit the command line. The examples described in this article are simple enough to help you get started and give you a glimpse of the possibilities for customizing Bash.
