The stars already gave their two cents on the election this morning, via everyone's favorite social media site, Twitter, but the royals on the other side of the pond had yet to give their political endorsement!
Until now!
Apparently Kate Middleton sent Barack and Michelle Obama a secret note!
"The Duke and Duchess have sent a personal note of congratulations to Barack Obama on his US re-election," a Palace source told Us Weekly.
The royal couple and the presidential couple are both friends, remember when they all met up in May of last year and stood around with their hands awkwardly crossed in front of themselves making small talk about world politics and Coldplay, probably, I don't know.
Apparently the Royals are democrats, Queen Elizabeth is all about Obama. "Her Majesty is pleased with the election result," says the Palace insider.
Michelle Obama hung out with the royals again in London ahead of the Olympic games and both Obamas have met Queen Elizabeth on a few occasions, with the palace source adding, "[The Queen] gets on well with Mr. Obama and his wife."
I'm not surprised the royals endorsed Obama. Back in July, Mitt Romney criticized Great Britain's lack of organization for the London Olympics.
"The stories about the private security firm not having enough people, the supposed strike of the immigration and customs officials -- that obviously is not something which is encouraging," Romney previously stated.

Shine on You Crazy Diamond – Pink Floyd
Sonnet [with no name] – e.e. cummings [1894 – 1962]
being to timelessness as it's to time, love did no more begin than love will end; where nothing is to breathe to stroll to swim love is the air the ocean and the land
(do lovers suffer?all divinities proudly descending put on deathful flesh: are lovers glad?only their smallest joy's a universe emerging from a wish)
love is the voice under all silences, the hope which has no opposite in fear; the strength so strong mere force is feebleness: the truth more first than sun more last than star
-do lovers love?why then to heaven with hell. Whatever sages say and fools, all's well

"The Cost of Grace", Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Dietrich Bonhoeffer on Cheap Grace
Let the Christian rest content with his worldliness and with this renunciation of any higher standard than the world. He is living for the sake of the world rather than for the sake of grace. Let him be comforted and rest assured in his possession of this grace – for grace alone does everything. Instead of following Christ, let the Christian enjoy the consolations of his grace!
That is what we mean by cheap grace, the grace which amounts to the justification of sin without the justification of the repentant sinner who departs from sin and from whom sins departs.
Cheap grace is not the kind of forgiveness of sin which frees us from the toils of sin. Cheap grace is the grace we bestow on ourselves. Cheap grace is the preaching of forgiveness without requiring repentance, baptism without church discipline, Communion without confession, absolution without personal confession.
Cheap grace is grace without discipleship, grace without the cross, grace without Jesus Christ, living and incarnate.
Costly grace is the treasure hidden in the field; for the sake of it a man will gladly go and sell all that he has. It is the pearl of great price to buy which the merchant will sell all his goods. It is the kingly rule of Christ, for whose sake a man will pluck out the eye which causes him to stumble, it is the call of Jesus Christ at which the disciple leaves his nets and follows him.
Costly grace is the gospel which must be sought again and again, the gift which must the asked for, the door at which a man must knock.
Such grace is costly because it calls us to follow, and it is grace because it calls us to follow Jesus Christ. It is costly because it costs a man his life, and it is grace because it gives a man the only true life. It is costly because it condemns sin, and grace because it justifies the sinner. Above all, it is costly because it cost God the life of his Son: "ye were bought at a price, and what has cost God much cannot be cheap for us. Above all, it is grace because God did not reckon his Son too dear a price to pay for our life, but delivered him up for us.
Costly grace is the Incarnation of God.

A Statement of Dedicated Ministry
My calling is sure. My challenge is big. My vision is clear. My desire is strong. My influence is eternal. My impact is critical. My values are solid. My faith is tough. My mission is urgent. My purpose is unmistakable. My direction is forward. My heart is genuine. My strength is supernatural. My reward is promised. And my God is real. "
"I refuse to be dismayed, disengaged, disgruntled, discouraged, or distracted. Neither will I look back, stand back, fall back, go back or sit back. I do not need applause, flattery, adulation, prestige, stature or veneration. I have no time for business as usual, mediocre standards, small thinking, normal expectations, average results, ordinary ideas, petty disputes or low vision. I will not give up, give in, bail out, lie down, turn over, quit or surrender. I'm dedicated to doing the work of the ministry. God help me."
There is such a thing as a "Seal of Good Housekeeping" that is given as a mark of approval. As I read the above quotation, I thought of all the men and women that could make this declaration. So many that we could approve of and to put a definitive seal of Kingdom approval on.
I have friends in ministry in Mexico, India, China, Italy, Peru, Kazakhstan, San Francisco and so many other places. They stand boldly and minister lovingly. We must pray for them, all the time. People like you and me who suffer with a mental illness are poor candidates for this level of intense ministry. But we make great prayer warriors!
As we pray, standing in the gap for others, often we will experience a release from our own issues. They just melt away. I focus on you, and I won't hurt as much. I have to reach out, so God can reach in. This is what Jesus intends for me as His disciple; "in training."
Thinking Out Things
There is a full treatment that the Father intends to work in us. And He will work in us, and we can't prevent its work. We don't really want Him to make us a saint. But He carries out a different plan. We shouldn't be entirely surprised to have Him inside of us, working and building. We really are brought to a point when the things He does will need to be tolerated, at least.
To be a Christian is a challenging endeavour. Just ike taffy is pulled to an amazing length, it will always unfold and duplicated. This work starts to insist that we turn over everything ugly and evil and we turn over the nastiness that wants to invade our darkness. We are the lost sheep, and we honestly renounce a corruption of our hearts, and the desire to wander away.
There is one of those stories, which can be found in many different cultures. It is this– a man wears a mask, for several years. He never takes it off. The mask is a permanent fixture in His life. As the moment of revelation when the mask comes off, we all discover that he has been changed, transformed by the wearing of the mask.
Will you wear the mask?
Might it be, that it you will "put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh," transformation will happen as we start to "wear Him" through our unique and surprising life. We have been bonded to Him, and He is now working "Christlikedness" inside us. If we try to evaluate the Lords work, we maybe disappointed. But we so seldom discern these things properly. However it is clear that He has not postponed His work, but is actively seeking it to work in our lives.

Comments about Ibanez RG652 Prestige RG Series Electric Guitar:
I've had this guitar for about a month now and it is now my favorite guitar. Let's get to the good points: hardshell case included, great looking black finish, unfinished 5 piece neck, Gotoh tuners, awe-inspiring pickups. I get pinch harmonics everywhere on this thing.
The setup was actually quite a pain initially. The factory setup was horrible. After truss rod adjustments, bridge adjustments, intonation adjustments, wash rinse and repeat...I got a pretty flat fretboard with low action that is easy to play and very fast.
I have gotten to record with this through my Marshall attached to my pedal board going into a Line6 GX to my computer. I recorded the lead for So Far Away by Avenged Sevenfold and it honestly sounded just like Synyster's setup. Granted, I had to tweak a lot but I got it there.
The guitar is crisp sounding with fantastic pickups...they make my EMG's on my ESP 350MH-NT look sad, and I was happy with those. Granted, this guitar is quite a bit more expensive.
If you're really in the market for this type of guitar and don't want flashy tremolos but rather a fixed bridge that won't let you down...look no further. I know I have years before my skill outgrows the guitar.
Best Uses
Comments about Ibanez RG652 Prestige RG Series Electric Guitar:
I was fortunate to pick up a mint 'lightly used' version and you couldn't even tell it had been used. The hardshell case is a nice touch. I will admit, setup was quite tedious and the factory setup needed a lot of work. However, once setup was done, I started to play, and WOW.
The pickups are rich, even when using the bridge pickups. Pinch harmonics are all over the string. Literally...I have to be careful where I hit or I get off sounds. Using the center setting gives a full-blown amazing full sound and the neck pickup tones it down a bit but still offers tonal variance. This guitar sounds good clean, it sounds good distorted...it just sounds good.
I did a direct compare with my ESP LTD MH-350NT with EMG 81 and 85 pickups. The ESP sounded thin on the bridge pickups and couldn't meet the tonal depth of the 652 on any setting. Both used monster cables to hook to the sawitch box. EVERYTHING sounds better on this guitar. It makes my amp look sucky (a G-DEC 30) but I am having fun with my new pedal board with Korg tuner and Morley three guitar switch.
Great guitar, great price (yes, I said it here). Just make sure to use good gear with it. You'll appreciate the difference.

Population Health Practice
The Division's newest school, the School of Population Health, initiated in August 2012, seeks to consolidate and advance the University of South Australia's capacity for training research professionals in the uses and interpretation of population data to inform health and social policy. Targeting four of 12 areas for furthering research capabilities given in the 2011 Strategic Roadmap for Australian Research Infrastructure (Population Health Research Platforms, Translating Health Research, Urban Settlements, and Cultures and Communities) places it at the forefront of the nation's research agenda. The School of Population Health evidences substantial strength in research funding, particularly Category 1 grants. Areas of expertise include: spatial and social epidemiology; nutritional and genetic epidemiology; intergenerational and life-course epidemiology; cancer screening and epidemiology; health economics, primary care and social policy; health promotion and disease prevention; and evaluation research (intervention planning, implementation and evaluation).
The School of Population Health supports undergraduate instruction across the Division of Health Sciences through service teaching of over 1,000 students annually, in courses including population health and epidemiology and public health. As a graduate school it enrols postgraduate students into its innovative Masters of Research (Population Health Practice) degree which combines coursework in research methods and professional experience, synthesised with a research thesis involving original research (offered effective 2015). It similarly offers a Doctoral degree that blends original research with training in advanced research methods. These postgraduate programmes emphasise the practical skills required for effective functioning in real-world population and public health practice settings, preparing programme graduates to respond to contemporary health challenges faced by mainstream and vulnerable populations, nationally and internationally.
In April 2014, the School of Population Health relocated to the South Australian Health & Medical Research Institute. (SAHMRI), located on North Terrace in the west end of the Adelaide central business district. In establishing a presence at SAHMRI, the School of Population Health and the University seek to achieve engagement and enrichment of relationships with leading national health stakeholders, as well as active collaboration in trans-disciplinary grant submissions and research initiatives. The SAHMRI is a core component in the growth of a new and impressive health and medical precinct for South Australia. At SAHMRI, the School of Population Health joins with leading research groups from Flinders and Adelaide universities, and branches of national research agencies from across Australia.

This is a continuation-in-part of Ser. No. 07/336,267 filed Apr. 11, 1989.
The present invention relates generally to room dividers, more particularly, it relates to a portable combination cabinet-room divider.
There are times that it is desired to divide large areas, such as rooms or halls, into smaller more private areas. One method of doing this is by the use of movable wall panels which are suspended from and move on tracks attached to the ceiling and/or floor. This method is relatively expensive and it is inflexible.
Another method of dividing large areas into smaller private areas is to use movable free standing wall units. This method is relatively inexpensive and it permits the formation of areas of a wide variety of shapes, but the free standing wall units present storage and handling problems.
There is a need for portable apparatus for dividing large areas into a wide variety of different shaped smaller and more private areas which does not present storage and handling problems.
It is an object of the present invention to disclose an inexpensive, apparatus for dividing large areas into smaller private areas.
It is a further object to disclose such an apparatus which does not present the storage and handling problems of prior art free standing wall units.
The apparatus of the present invention comprises a portable cabinet with an enclosed hollow interior which contains a plurality of folded wall panels which can be removed and unfolded to form a wall. One end of one of the wall panels is anchored to the cabinet and the other end is attached by a hinge to a second wall panel. Additional wall panels are hingedly connected together in a similar manner to form a wall of the desired length.
In one preferred embodiment the cabinet is mounted on casters and in another it is adapted to be hung on a wall. In both preferred embodiments a storage compartment in the hollow interior of the cabinet is closed by a door that can be opened t permit the removal and return of the folded wall panels.
It will be apparent to those skilled in the art from the description that follows that the aforementioned and other objects can be achieved by the apparatus of the present invention.
In the drawings:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the embodiment of the cabinet of the present invention having casters;
FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the cabinet of FIG. 1 with the doors open and the wall panels unfolded;
FIG. 3 is an enlarged, sectional partial view of one of the storage compartments of the cabinet of FIG. 1 taken along lines 3--3;
FIG. 4 is an enlarged sectional view taken along lines 4--4 in FIG. 3;
FIG. 5 is a partial top view, partly in section, of the embodiment of FIG. 2;
FIG. 6 is a top view of the storage compartment of FIG. 3;
FIGS. 7 to 9 are views showing the mechanism which anchors a panel to the cabinet;
FIGS. 10, 11, and 12 are views similar to FIGS. 2, 3 and 4, respectively, showing alternative embodiments;
FIGS. 13 and 14 are enlarged perspective views showing casters with brakes mounted on the cabinet and a panel.
In the drawings FIGS. 1 and 2 show a cabinet-room divider 10 of the present invention. In FIG. 1 the cabinet-room divider 10 is shown prior to use as a room-divider and in FIG. 2 it is shown in use with the doors 11 open and the wall panels 12, which are normally stored therein, unfolded. In FIG. 1 only one of the doors 11 can be seen, but there are two such doors one at each end of the cabinet-room divider 10.
Still referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, it can be seen that the cabinet-room divider 10 has both a vertical work surface 13 and a horizontal work surface 14. It also has storage drawers 15 and doors 16 that close off parts of the cabinet interior below the horizontal work surface 14. The cabinet-room divider 10 is mounted on all-directional casters 17 so it is portable and can be easily moved from one location to another.
In FIGS. 3, 4 and 6, the cabinet-room divider 10 is shown with wall panels 12 stored within one of two panel storage compartments 18 in the hollow interior of the cabinet-room divider 10. As seen therein, selected wall panels 12 are each provided at the bottom with a leg 19 with a foot 20 having two pair of spaced-apart floor engaging casters 21.
Still referring to FIGS. 3 and 4, it can be seen that there are anchor pins 22 and 23 which are mounted on the top and bottom, respectively of the inside end of the panel 12a. The pins 22 and 23 cooperate with top and bottom slides, 24 and 25, respectively, to permit the panel 12a to be slid out of the compartment 18 and to prevent panel 12a from becoming detached from the cabinet 10 when the panels 12 are removed from storage compartment 18 and unfolded as seen in FIG. 5.
Returning to FIG. 6, each of the wall panels 12 is seen to be connected to the immediately adjacent panels by hinges 26 so that they can be readily unfolded or folded to form integral walls as seen in FIGS. 2 and 5, respectively.
In FIGS. 7, 8 and 9 the top slide 24 and its relationship with the panel 12a, the pin 22 and the compartment 18 is illustrated. As seen best in FIG. 7, the slide 24 is an elongated member, preferably of a self-lubricating plastic, which has a track 27 for the pin 22 and a slot 28, 29 at each end.
As seen in FIGS. 3, 4 and 8, the slide 24 is secured to a bracket 30 on one wall of the compartment 18 by a pair of bolts 31, 32 and nuts 33, 34. The bolt 31 has a shank 31a which extends through and is narrower than the slot 28 and an enlarged head 31b which is wider than the slot 28. The other end of the slide 24 is secured to the bracket 30 in a similar manner with the bolt 32 and nut 34. When the panel 12a is stored as seen in FIG. 8 the bolts 31, 32 are at the far right end of the slots 28 and 29 and when the panel 12a is fully extended (as seen in FIG. 9) the bolts 31, 32 are at the innermost other end of the slots 28 and 29 and the pin 22 is at the outermost end of the track 27. The bottom slide 25 seen in FIG. 3 is identical to top slide 24 and it is attached to the bottom of the compartment 18 with bolts 35, 36.
Finally, in FIG. 4, it can be seen that the wall panels 12 are stabilized in the compartment 18 by rollers 37 which are mounted on the side walls of the compartment 18.
In use the cabinet-room divider 10 with the folding wall panels 12 stored and the doors 11 closed as seen in FIG. 1 can be readily moved into an area to be divided. The cabinet-room divider 10 is positioned where desired to divide the area into one or more predetermined private areas. The casters 17 are then locked in place with caster brakes as described later in conjunction with FIG. 13. The doors 11 are raised, and the hinged, folded wall panels 12 removed from the storage compartment 18 as a stack 38 as seen in dotted lines in FIG. 5. The movement of the panels 12 from the storage compartment 18 is controlled and stopped by the cooperation of panel 12a, pins 22, 23 and the slides 24, 25. The withdrawal of the panels 12 as a stack 38 is facilitated by the casters 21 on the feet 20 of the selected wall panels 12 and the rollers 37. The wall panels 12 can be then unfolded as seen on the right in FIG. 5 and arranged to form a wall as seen in FIG. 2. If desired, the casters 21 also can be provided with caster brakes to help immobilize the thus formed wall as later described in conjunction with FIG. 14.
The same procedure can be used to remove and assemble a second wall using the wall panels stored in the other panel storage compartment of the cabinet interior.
When it is desired to disassemble the walls and store the wall panels 12 in the storage compartment 18, the caster brakes, if any, on the casters 21 are unlocked and the hinged panels 12 are folded to form the stack 38 as seen in FIG. 5. The storage of the stack 38 of wall panels in the storage compartment 18 is facilitated by the cooperation of the pins 22, 23, the slides 24 and 25 and the rollers 37.
It will be apparent to those skilled in the art from the foregoing description and the drawings that the present invention provides a very convenient, inexpensive and flexible means for dividing large areas into smaller more private areas. As seen in FIG. 2, the walls that are formed can be straight angular or partially folded. The walls can be the width of a single wall panel or an multiple thereof and within limits they can extend in any direction.
FIGS. 10-14 illustrate alternative embodiments wherein similar components are described except they are "primed." Referring to FIG. 10 it is seen that cabinet-room divider 10' has two doors 16' with three drawers 15' placed laterally of the doors 16'. Unlike embodiment 10, the panel 12a' which is anchored to the compartment 18' is anchored towards the rear thereof and the remaining panels 12a' are folded in a different manner. This folding provides for a symmetrical unfolding and folding with respect to each other. A pull strap handle 47 is shown on the lead panels to aid in unfolding the panels 12' from the storage compartment 18'.
In FIGS. 11 and 12 there is shown a mid header 40 inside the cabinet-room divider 10'. This provides stability for the door track 11' as does the center stiffner panel 50 which is increased in width over that shown in FIG. 3. Also threaded insert screws 31', 32', 35' and 36' are employed to secure the glide bars 24' and 25'. These have a nylon patch on them (not shown) to prevent unthreading. Bumpers 41 are disposed in the base of the cabinet-room divider for protection against contact by the legs 19'. There is also illustrated a generally elongated C-shaped door handle 42 which is preferably made from nylon.
Referring to FIGS. 13 and 14, casters 17' and 21' are shown. Caster 17' has a brake member 44 and similarly caster 21' has a brake member 45.
It also will be apparent to those skilled in the art that a number of changes and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. For example, if desired the cabinet-room divider can be adapted to hang upon a wall or provided as a doubled cabinet with horizontal work surfaces on each side of the panel storage compartment. In addition, the casters and legs may take forms other than those shown and described. Therefore, it is intended that the invention not be limited except by the claims.

The voices in my head tell me that I may have to have a prejudice referring to Muscle Core X. There are few old reactions in this method of thinking. Many fellow travelers do a striking amount of work on their Muscle Core X. You should avoid this like the plague. It is cat and mouse game yet the most essential decision you make is choosing the right Muscle Core X. This is first come, first served. It is wholesome counsel. That is only a portion of Muscle Core X.

Once shocking and hard to believe, revelations of sexual relationships between students and teachers have become almost a fixture in news.
But one Kentucky teacher said her arrest for an alleged affair with a 16-year-old football player was unfair and untrue and has ruined her career, possibly her life.
Nicole Howell, 26, was a first-year English teacher finishing up a lesson on Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet," when she was pulled out of her Dayton High School classroom in December and told she was being suspended for having sex with a student.
"I thought it was preposterous," she said.
It got worse. Howell was arrested for first-degree sexual abuse less than a month later and faces a trial in the fall. Her teaching certificate is in jeopardy and she's had to move back home with her parents.
All for an affair that she says not only never happened, but one that there is no evidence of other than the ramblings of a high school kid who at first claimed the two were involved in a threesome with another male student.
Howell is now planning to sue the school district, the police department and the boy who she says made it all up.
The Covington Police Department did not return messages seeking comment and the accuser's parents could not immediately be reached.
Howell, a graduate of Northern Kentucky University, said she was inspired to become a teacher by one of her former high school teachers.
When she was hired at Dayton High School, Howell said she found it challenging. The town was home to many low-income families and the schools often went without.
"I liked it a lot," she said. "It was a lot, a lot of work."
She was also an assistant cheerleading coach, putting her right in the middle of a throng of cheerleaders and football players who practiced and socialized side-by-side.
Howell said the beginning of her first year as a teacher was going well until early December when she started hearing rumors in the hallway.
"There were a couple of students snickering about a teacher involved in a threesome," she said.
Then the second boy who was supposedly involved, then a senior, told her the rumors were about himself, her and the accuser.
"I'm a first-year teacher," Howell said. "I didn't know what to do."
So she sought the advice of a fellow teacher who told her to speak to the principal to get ahead of the rumor mill.
The principal, she said, "told me at the time ... usually these things die out. We'll look into it.'"
For a few days, it seemed like the matter had petered out.
Howell said she was told that both boys denied any sexual contact with her to the principal. Other rumors that followed, including that the accuser's father drove his son to her apartment for sex, was also disproved, Howell said.
But on Dec. 15 when she was suspended, Howell said the principal told her that the accuser, who had been threatened with possible expulsion for lying about such a serious allegation, had recanted his denial and was accusing Howell of having sex with him.
Howell said she left school in disbelief and hired a lawyer.
Howell said that while she knew who her accuser was and had interacted with him as part of the football-cheerleading team dynamic, she never once laid a hand on him or any other student, nor had she even been alone with him in school or otherwise.

How many people here have a wii LU39 model number and have a hacked wii?
Hello guys,
I´ve done this wonderful softmode today.
I solved the problem of the black screen when entering the shop channel and photo channel. I used WiiSCU and just upgraded the IOS61, like ShadowSonic2 told me.
But I have another problem guys. When I am in a channel or a game, and I want to exit to the Wii Menu again to play another thing, the system restarts (or reset) showing the initial black screen of warning before enter Wii menu.
How can I solve this problem?
Thanks again.
