Bartley Kives has repeated the common belief that Dominion Day "referenced the nation's official status as existing under the dominion of the British Empire" (Maple syrup forever, June 28).
In fact, it referenced something quite different.
In the lead-up to Confederation, several possible names were considered, including Kingdom of Canada, favoured by Sir John A. Macdonald. It was New Brunswick's Leonard Tilley who chanced upon an evocative phrase while reading the Bible, Psalm 72: "He shall have dominion also from sea to sea."
So came into being the Dominion of Canada -- A Mari Usque ad Mare.

BS vs GK colors by danimation2001Watch
My take on who would win before doing this piece was that I thought Goku and Kakashi would win hands down. But then I threw the question at some other people and asked them why they thought that way. One said that superman would win because he's able to push planets. Thinking back on Goku, when has he ever moved a planet? Sure he's able to blow one up, but move it?
That's something to think about there. And then there's Batman, he's a thinker, lets get that straight, he's actually been able to take down superman for that very reason. Everyone has a weakness that can be exploited, even Kakashi. He has a limited amount of chakra, making him waste some might help, Though honestly I still would think Kakashi would win, but I wouldn't count Bats out really.
So what's your take on this whole concept. Who would win and give some good reason.
What gives one of these characters the edge, or rather positives that would favor them?
Besides the poor Batman wouldn't even stand a chance against Kakashi.
Kakashi beats Batman.
I honestly gave up on thinking like that, not because that there won't ever be a legitimate winner (there actually can be one), but mainly because it's just as much fun (if, not more fun) enjoying the fight itself, rather than arguing (I know: speculation can be fun, but still.....).
Most of the time, fights like these never reach any real conclusion (the characters involved are interrupted by an even great threat to them/humans/earth or something along those lines).
Anyway, awesome piece of artwork! I've never seen all of these characters depicted like this together! Good job coloring it!
For Batman vs Kakashi it all depends on if this is their first fight or prep time because usually Batman loses his first fight but studies up on his opponent and formulates a plan of attack so if its a first fight then Kakashi, if its a prep time fight then Batman.
But that's just a logical way to look at it. As much as I like Bats, Superman and Kakashi, Goku's strength has not been determined yet and who's to say Goku can't reach SSJ5 - onwards?
goku because it takes him less than 5 seconds to go super saiyan. Also because he beat up frieza and frieza could destroy a planet in his first form. Goku could just ga SSJ4 and dominate superman. But this wouldn't happen because there both nice and are good.
Kakashi vs batman
Kakashi would just use his sharingan and send some hounds to rip batman to shreds. But this would never happen because batman would probably want to see him fight and vice versa. They would also probably be friends.
But again this is my opinion.
Screw Attack also said Goku couldn't teleport easily, but that's a lie too. They used Kid Buu blowing up the earth and Goku failing to teleport as an example of that, but Goku was trying to get to Supreme Kai who lives in a dimension far away outside the cosmos sphere which takes longer and is harder to do. Furthermore Goku was freaking out his sons were about to die and the world was about to end. Goku has teleported in battle before many times fighting Buu, Cell, rescuing Piccolo and Tien from Cell, and even in Battle of gods against Birusu. As for Superman destroying a solar system, that was Pre Crisis Superman and he did it after magic dust gave him the power to. Superman fans take everything of context. Superman does have limits too. He almost died before from absorbing too much solar energy at once in All Star Superman when he rescued a scientist's spaceship from falling into the sun.
It's worth pointing out that it basically says the reason Goku's weight training in Heaven was so effective was that he used Bukujutsu to float in midair as he used the weights, which made it much harder. It also says his image training/meditation was a means to raise his maximum ki, as muscle training has a limit. Toriyama mentioned there being limits to how much training your muscles could do and needing ki to overcome that limit in the book's interview.
Some things of interest is that it describes Gohan's training as being based mostly on strengthening and learning to control his ki, while Vegeta's training is described as training his muscles to the limit. And as a result of Vegeta's training, it says he awakened to Super Saiyan 2, so that's another data point in that debate (Daizenshuu 7 also says Vegeta acquired Super Saiyan 2 through training). www.neoseeker.com/forums/88/t1…
What I really want to talk about is the 40 tons feat. It's a low end feat. Goku has done MUCH more impressive feats than that in Dragon Ball (www.narutoforums.com/blog.php?… & www.narutoforums.com/showpost.… And then a few in DBZ(www.narutoforums.com/blog.php?… this to get the strngth feat www.convertunits.com/from/mega… & (z.mfcdn.net/store/manga/214/26… & (static.comicvine.com/uploads/o… was claced to be 13.87 kilotons wich converted into 13,870 metric tons)
Awesome pic by the way
In the 40 ton scene, we see Goku training with weights (I forget the exact weight) before King Kai suggests that Goku's weights should be made heavier. This of course surprises Goku who mentions he's not sure if he can lift that much and then bam they get changed and he struggles for a bit before turning Super Saiyan and they become light as a feather.
There are one thing people forget about Goku and one of them is that Saiyans over all, train for long periods of time without rest and they push themselves past their limitations to acquire new levels of strength. People tend to jump at the conclusion that Goku couldn't lift 40 tons therefore he's not as strong as Superman but if I'm not mistaken wasn't King Kai's planet gravity 10x that of Earth's? If I'm right, then that means he was essentially lifting 400 tons on each limb (not bench pressing them, but lifting them up at the end of his limbs which is heavier than bench pressing) for who know how long (sometimes Saiyan's training can be so vigorous and intense that they can go hours or days without rest... need prove? Look at kid trunks, at the age of 11 he was doing push ups with one finger up all the way into the 900's as well as other saiyan training such as Goku and Gohan's HTC training) so it would make sense why Goku struggled.
If your comfortable a certain weight limit that you've been training with (for days) and suddenly someone comes along and increases your weights without taking some time off to relax, then your obviously going to get tired and struggle for a bit until you use more strength and that is exactly what Goku did. People seem to downplay Goku's strength simply because he struggled momentarily but I don't see how this matters? The guy was tired and powered up and used his strength (whether it was via Super Saiyan transformation or not) he still lifted those weights, so I don't see how that makes him any weaker.
Keep in mind how absurd it is to say Goku can't lift more than 40 tons after Frieza saga when the guy pushed a giant piccolo effortlessly while being crush under his foot (and injured), moved a giant stone while he was a kid which was easily more than a couple of tons and nearly caught a mountain (if you count anime) that was thrown with telekinesis by Frieza.
There is more examples of Goku's immense strength that I can't think of at the top of my head right now that show that Goku is indeed way past 40 tons or 400 tons for that matter, just that in DBZ, it's all about the fighting and martial arts and less about showing impressive feats which is why people instantly assume Goku is weaker than Superman due to lack of feats.
Anyway you guys are free to disagree, I just thought I'd drop by and point out a few things. For the record I am not a DBZ fanboy (in fact Super Perfect Cell is the only character I like from the show and that's cuz he's my favorite fictional character due to his powers and abilities which are awesome) so if there's any DC fans here, don't go on a riot, flaming and name calling over this post. I'm not downplaying Superman, I personally think his powers are indeed impressive and he's definitely one of the top dogs in heavy hitting but against Goku my opinion is that he would lose (but that's just me)
[My reasoning is in that novel I wrote in the previous message lol]
Superman is an alien who uses his powers for good using solar energy to power himself up and have super strength, the closer he is to the sun, the higher his strength and over all abilities increase right? Yeah well if we look at Super Perfect Cell, the guy was already a Solar System buster (and I don't mean "hit the sun and cause a supernova", I mean he had enough energy to destroy the entire solar system according to the DBZ guide which is cannon) which means Cell alone has more power that he can generate and use for strength/speed/durability ect than anything Superman can do.
Yes I am fully aware the the physics and reality of both universes are different but regardless of how you look at it, the energy output is the same: Superman can generate immense level of solar energy but Cell can generate enough energy to wipe out an entire solar system (and lets be honest...that's a ****-ton of energy!). Now I'm sure people are going to bring up that SPC never preformed that feat therefore it was a hyperbole but that's incorrect as it was stated in the manga,anime and guidebook which are cannon (except for anime) and the reason he didn't preform this feat is because the circumstances didn't require it. By the time Super Perfect Cell came around, the writers were ready to take out Cell with a bang via the kamehameha beam struggle which means if they allowed Cell to destroy the entire solar system then two things would have happened:
1) all the character's efforts would have been in vain and the show would have ended there
2) If they didn't die from the destruction of the solar system, the authors would have to come up with some explanation as to how all the Z fighters survived and the story would have to be expanded.
So where am I going with this.. well if Cell was capable of generating that much power in his Super Perfect Form, Goku would would have 4 times that power in his SS3 form which ultimately means Goku would have the power to destroy 4 entire solar systems (stars included) while Superman would only have enough power from one star ... as you can see Goku would wipe the floor with Superman.
Of course people require feats but let me say this: You guys are expecting feats from a character who was on a show/manga compared to a character that's been around longer than 50 years who constantly has different writers... not really a fair match up unless you stick to one writer vs one writer then it would make more sense. Aside from using Superman 1 million and pre-crisis Superman, Goku wins easily.
As for batman and kakashi, I really don't watch naruto so I don't know who will win. All I can say is that whoever have powers and can fight, will win. Batman doesn't have powers so he can easily be defected by someone who have powers because all he have is weapon gadgets and fighting skills. Just think of batman as a ninja with some cool a$$ weapons.
1: "Goku is still human" Goku is not Human, he is a saiyan!!
2: "Goku needs lots, I mean lots of time to charge up his powers and he gets tired after fighting using too much powers. Just look at all of his fight scenes, takes like 10 episodes to finish a fight that should of been 10 mins long."
Ah... bitch please, it takes that long because it's all in super slow-motion so we don't end up blinking and missing it all.
3: "Goku needs oxygen and a planet to survive" That's actually wrong, in the early chapters of Dragon Ball, Goku goes to the Moon and back without any need of oxygen support.
And really, saiyans also have unlimited power if people just stop and think about it, every time a saiyan gets beaten to near death and comes back, his power increases, so Goku could just keep doing that over and over.
I think superman is going to win because his abilities activate instantly,like the ice breath or the superbreath or the laser,so if their strengh is (in goku's final form) the same,superman has the advantage.
Batman doesn't have any powers so i think kakashi is going to underestimate him and not use his sharingun,batman is going to be beaten and while on the ground he is going to press the detonator of the bombs around kakashi,or throw him an electrofied bat ,to take him down.Batman is going to win because of the element of suprise.
It would be badass.
Kakashi would have too much fun messing with Batman for there to be a serious fight.
But if I had to choose, Goku, because he would somehow find a way to make a kryptonite bomb. I have no idea about the last one.
"batmans weapons are just too basic... OR AT LEAST IN THIS KINDA FIGHT..."
really! kakashi is just to fast for batman..in every way and im sure kakashi could get batman with a lightning clone...
My personal opinion is that they keep tagging out and swapping back and forth and nobody really gets anywhere. The Lex Luthor teams up with Broly and things just get weird. Eventually Darkseid is revealed to have been the mastermind when he sews a demon catfish into one of his minions and they must team up to fight the robot demon catfish god alien.
Status of brawl still unresolved by the ending.

BlackBerry Curve 9360 Review
The BlackBerry Curve is back and is now slimmer and sexier — the thinnest Curve there is. I've been using the Curve 9360 for a couple of week now since we went to Jakarta for the BlackBerry launch event last week. Check out our full review of the BlackBerry Curve 9360 after the jump.
The Curve 9360 looks pretty much similar to its predecessor although RIM has generously shaved off a lot of fat, making the device thin. The body is shaped with a lot of sharp curves and tapers toward the sides giving you the impression that it is really thin and light (which actually works).
The micro-USB port is at the left side of the handset while the 3.5mm audio port is at the top and aside from the lock button beside it, there's not much else ports or buttons on the device. The volume controls on the right are masked by rubber pads so you don't notice them right away.
The back panel is curved and has a piano-black finish with the BlackBerry logo etched at the top middle. There, you'll find the 5MP camera flushed to the left side and the LED flash on the opposite side (gives it a symmetrical robotic eye look).
The one other button that is actually somewhat hidden is the Lock screen button at the top corner (like the forehead of the handset) which is indicated by a padlock sign.
The menu controls of the Curve 9360 remained practically the same from the previous models. It's not a touch panel but a physically large button that you have to press down hard (and more often than not, using your fingernails instead of your fingers). Pretty awkward if your have big fingers but if this is how the Curve was built for so many years, I guess familiarity trumps everything else (I asked several old-time Curve users and this is something they actually complain about).
The Curve 9360 is among the first BlackBerry handsets to run BB OS 7 out of the box and despite the seemingly average specs of the Curve, the OS works flawlessly. It's fast, fluid and very responsive. BB OS 7 is definitely very light and optimized (which is a wonder why they could not upgrade the older Curves into OS7).
As for apps, there's access to the BlackBerry App World which offers plenty of downloads both paid and free. It's great that the most popular ones like Facebook and Twitter are readily available, plus many more. Access to the Music Store is provided by Amazon MP3.
The Social Feeds aggregates messages from BBM, Twitter, Facebook, Google Talk, Windows Live and Yahoo! Messenger so that covers practically 99% of your online messaging needs.
The screen is small, measuring 2.44″ across but the display is actually really good at 246 ppi. It's clean and crisp, relatively bright and has good contrast that's still usable in the outdoors despite the glare. Video playback is smooth and rich in colors but I don't think anyone would enjoy watching a full-length movie on this really small screen.
The audio on the Curve 9360 is surprisingly good. The default alert tones for calls and SMS seemed weak but when I played some music and videos, the speakers at the back panel were relatively powerful with good volume range and nice, crisp sound that's not tinny at all.
The 5-megapixel camera takes decent pictures; a little grainy but way better than the previous Curves we're tried. It's not as good as the one on the Bold 9900 but it's usable. The video capture isn't as good either and there's no HD quality video capture. The only useful features on the camera are the generous number of scene modes which includes Text Mode for taking pictures of documents. And no, there's no secondary, front-facing camera here.
The full-qwerty keyboard is nice and easy to use — that is, if you have small fingers. They're a bit cramped for my taste though.
The most notable addition to the Curve 9360 is the inclusion of Near-Field Communication (NFC) but there's not much practical use for that now here in the Philippines.
The complete hardware configuration of the Curve 9360 is as follows (note that the internal storage is just 521MB so you'll definitely need an extra microSD card if you want to takes photos or capture videos).
BlackBerry Curve 9360 specs:
2.44″ display @ 480×360 pixel
800MHz processor
512MB of RAM
512MB internal storage
up to 32GB microSD
HSDPA 7.2Mbps
WiFi 802.11 b/g
5MP camera with LED flash
VGA video recording
NFC support
Bluetooth 2.1 w/ A2DP
GPS w/ aGPS support
BlackBerry OS 7.0
Li-Ion 1,000mAh battery
The battery capacity of the Curve 9360 is only 1,000mAh. That's okay if you're just into SMS or calls for the most part of the day but when you have BBM on and the Social Feeds running, your normal 2 to 2.5 days will easily drop down to just under a day (so don't forget to bring along a portable battery pack).
The Curve 9360 is definitely the best-looking BlackBerry that RIM has ever made. No doubt about that. It's slim, sexy and has all the curves at the right places. It's so light and pocketable that you can place it in your breast pocket and easily forget about it.
If you're after the basic BlackBerry services like BBM and the Social Feeds, the Curve 9360 fits the bill. Its got its own share of shortcomings (namely the battery, camera and the tiny keyboard) but certainly makes up for it in the looks and form factor. I'm actually thinking of it as a candidate for the best secondary phone.
The suggested retail price of Php16,990 is a bit on the steep side though considering the older and popular Curve 8250 is already in the sub-Php10k range.

I had this phone for a week as an upgrade from the curve 9300. I need the extra ooomph in processing as i have a deluge of emails everyday. Its really a smartphone made for business and social. I guess we never get tired of the Filipino mindset of getting the new ones but in reality, do we really need or utilize all the apps in your P36000 smartphone that gets obsolete in 6 months? its such a waste. Id rather go with a reasonable price tag that gets the job done, and sleek design as well, great tool for business and social. It should'nt be a contest who gets the latest stuff. The bottomline, do really need those extra stuff everyday? Love this curve.
Does the battery really suck? And is there no way to fix or change it?
it's you who can decide if the battery really sucks, by how you use it.. :)
i wanna ask kung may malaking effect ba sa battery yung output na toh (bb 9360 charger) 5v = 750mA vs (usb charger) 5v = 1000mA
I saw one in Globe and actually tried the keyboard.. it's good even though i have big hands.. :) priced P13,600 at widget city… i really am getting this one… :)
Got the white one. I already have htc phone… so got myself a qwerty bb and my first was the 9300… for a change lang gusto ko ng qwerty kc nga may touchscreen phone naman na ako… was rooting to get the 9790 kaso sabi ko the 9360 will do since bbchat at fb and twitter and mail checking (work) lang naman ang after ko sa bb… ive been loving bb and getting the white one ALWAYS scream out compliments from people around me… love the design… and yeah battery life really is short but that depends on how you use the phone… lahat naman ng smart phones e lageng battery life ang nagiging bukambibig na issue – mapa android or iphone or bb … duh you can never compare smartphones dahil nasa pag gamit mo nga yan eh… eh kung may isang brand ba ng smartphone na makapagrerelease ng 3-4 days na battery life inclusive of all the things that u do with the darn phone eh di malamang lahat tayo may pareparehong phone na… o basta kanya kanya yan.. walang basagan ng trip… kung ayaw nyo ng BB eh di mag not-so smart phone kayo… for sure 2-3 days ang battery life… nyahahaha… LUV BB SO MUCH + my ANDROID TOO! Ciao
Physically it is good looking, but its battery really sucks. It won't even last a day. I have mine BB9360 and using FB and Twitter, power last less than a day. Saka mabilis uminit back cover, to the point na kelangan ko i-turned off just to cool it. Masyado tlaga maiinit, and you feel it after just 15 to 30 mins of use. Normal lng ba yon? anybody who experience same problem?
hi, i have tried using facebook in my b 9360 I noticed that the logo for bb does not appear on my wall, maybe the question is bullshit or something but i really want to know why? I hope you could help me. Thanks!
does anyone know bakit mura yung mga phones and gadgets sa online shops? thanks.. :)
Prices of phones online are cheaper because they only offer service warranties (unless otherwise specified). This means that should you have problems with your phone the services rendered for it will be free BUT should there be parts that need to be replaced, they'll charge you. Most online shops are reasonable enough to specify this in their websites.
Battery life sucks! and heats up! is there no other way to correct or update of firmware?
I've been rocking Curves ever since the 8900 Curve. (The one with the trackball.) I didn't like the 8520 when it got released so I stuck with the 8900. When the Curve 9300 was released I got it but was hesitant because I didn't like the feeling of cheapness that the 8520 put on its table, I mean I really didn't like the plastic. I fell in love with the 8900 because it was sleek and well built, and didn't give a feeling of how cheap it was. A feeling which was ever-so present in the 8520s and the 9300s because of their similar styling and construction. I love this new BlackBerry simply because it's another 8900. Well built, great screen and sleek design. It's a return to what RIM did best and I'm digging how sleek it looks. I'm torn between this and a Galaxy Ace, but man is this phone sexy. Curves are a great value for money, and I love RIM for their impeccable taste. Good job RIM you'll get my money.
Hi! Someone in my Myspace group shared this site with us so I came to take a
look. I'm definitely enjoying the information. I'm bookmarking and will be tweeting this to my followers! Superb blog and great style and design.

text: I'm trying to decide on an 8 bay NAS. I figured i would set it up as RAID 6 with 1 hot spare (I've had to many hard drives fail to go with raid 5) ... that would give me 5 drives of storage: if I got 8 Western Digital Red 3 Terabyte drives = about 15TB of usable storage, I only need about 1/3 that at the moment, but I wanted room to grow. Main uses of Nas: storage / playing of audio files (ripped cd collection , multiple formats) storage /playing of video files (mainly videos from zune marketplace, but also may in future start trying to rip some DVDs/HDDVDs/Blu-Rays I have. storage of data digital camera photos, and scans of negatives from old pictures backups of data (old game saves, all sorts of random data I have, installs etc.) Media server type functionality for my audio / video files (to either a ps3, my tv (TOSHIBA REGZA 42" 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV 42XV540U) / reciever (Onkyo TX-NR709 7.2-Channel Network A/V Receiver) / blu-ray player (OPPO BDP-93 Universal Network 3D Blu-ray Disc Player) not sure if they are DLNA or not... I know that before, my PS3 could see stuff on my very old nas box i had (and gave away it was one of the ReadyNas ones with 4 drive bays) possibly serve as a backup device for my 2 windows boxes (I may be building a linux box in future soon too) I've looked at Qnap TS-879-PRO-US (trying to figure out why so expensive compared to Qnap TS-869-PRO-US) I was hoping to come up with a really solid system, which is why i have been looking at higher end mid sized systems. Are the Qnap -Pro line a bit more than I need ? I was originally hoping to get this thing build for around $2500. I could always start with less discs in the raid set, (still raid 6) and add later, but I figure the rebuild would take a long time. Qnap ? Synology ? should I get a Terastation instead ? And I know, even with raid 6 -- at some point i need to think of backing up the storage device, (in case of phyiscal failure / disaster etc) and 15TB seems very expensive on all the online services I've looked into. (Even 5TB would be alot) So, suggestions on a device, for starters.. would be appreciated.

I hope you had a safe and fun Halloween. We certainly did at the Bealls home in Ghent. Every year we sit out in their carport, wrapped up in coats and blankets and enjoy all of the trick-or-treaters.

The waiting room at the Hope Health Clinic in Oldham County was crowded Monday morning — but it wasn't full of patients.
It was packed with excited supporters, volunteers and workers, all there for a special announcement.
"They always told me to speak softly and carry a big check," said Susan Zepeda, president and CEO of the Foundation for a Healthy Kentucky.

The Cabinet for Health and Family Services Monday announced that $24 million in federal funding has been released to Kentucky to help low-income families heat their homes this winter.
The U.S. Department for Health and Human Services released funding for states' Low Income Home Energy Assistance Programs, which help families pay their energy bills, particularly during the very cold and hot months.

Editorial shoots are fun because a story gets to be told through clothes, hair, makeup and locations. The stories can be ridiculous, fun, heartfelt... just a moment that is captured be it real or imagined. I work closely with the models/actors or publications/companies to bring that story to life to make it real.

OSHA News Release - (Archived) Table of Contents
SEATTLE - A fatal accident in June at a job site in Idaho has resulted in citations and fines by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration against a Colorado company for failure to protect workers from the hazards of powerful liquid cutting streams.
OSHA announced today it issued a willful and a serious citation to Ardco Corporation of Denver, Colo., with $63,000 in proposed penalties, for alleged safety violations at a job in Soda Springs, Idaho.
In June 2001, an Ardco employee in Soda Springs was killed when a hose coupling on a high-pressure liquid cutter failed, and he was injected in the abdomen with a water stream. The alleged willful citation stated that power operated tools were not equipped with guards to protect operators and other employees from hazards created by exposure to liquid cutting streams.
"Workers were exposed to cutting streams of approximately 36,000 pounds per square inch while cutting and removing the rubber lining of a phosphoric acid tank," said Ryan Kuehmichel, area director for the agency's Boise office, which conducted the investigation.
Alleged serious violations included failure to provide a workplace free from recognized hazards in that employees were exposed to ultra high pressure water jet cutting streams; lack of an accident prevention program; use of machinery, tools, material and equipment that did not comply with applicable safety regulations; lack of employee safety training; inadequate personal protective equipment for workers; failure to provide a written respiratory protection program or suitable in-line air-purifying sorbent beds and filters; and use of oil-lubricated compressors to supply breathing air that were not equipped with alarms to monitor carbon monoxide levels.
According to Kuehmichel, the company has 15 working days to contest the citations.
A willful violation is defined by OSHA as one committed with an intentional disregard of, or plain indifference to, the requirements of the Occupational Safety and Health Act and regulations.
A serious violation is one in which there is substantial probability that death or serious physical harm could result, and the employer knew or should have known of the hazard.
The Boise OSHA area director may be contacted at 1150 North Curtis Road, Boise, Idaho 83706, telephone 208 321-2960.

Class Struggle: criticism of Duncan's record
The truth about Arne Duncan and the Chicago schools
Those districts will never rise to the level of their suburban neighbors. But you can see Duncan has been working at this very hard for many years, and (if you look at what he says rather than what sloppy writers like me have suggested) has always been honest about how far his home town still needs to go.

Goes in drive side and counterclockwise threading. But I can only get about 5 turns and it stops, even cranking hard. Half of the threads are sticking out.
Yet, the removed bb cup and be rethreaded with no problema. I don't believe there are any protrusions in the shell.
Any suggestions?

Obama urges Japan, SKorea to move past tensions

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) -- President Barack Obama says Japan's use of South Korean "comfort women" during World War II was a terrible and egregious violation of human rights.
Obama says South Korean women were violated in ways that were shocking even in the midst of war. He says those women deserve to be heard and respected and that there should be a clear account of what happened.
Obama is addressing historical tensions between U.S. allies Japan and South Korea during a news conference in Seoul with South Korean President Park Geun-hye (goon-hay).
He says the Japanese people and their prime minister understand the past must be recognized honestly. But Obama is urging Japan and South Korea to move forward because he says their interests clearly converge.

text: 000 FXUS63 KSGF 102115 AFDSGF Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service SPRINGFIELD MO 315 PM CST WED FEB 10 2016 .SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Thursday) Issued at 0231 PM CST WED FEB 10 2016 An Alberta Clipper system will continue to dive southeast across the Midwest this evening. This system has brought some light accumulating snow to central Missouri today. This snow was associated with a band of frontogenesis in the 700-750 mb layer. Keying in on this layer, short term models bring another slug of increased frontogenesis southeast which just glances central Missouri late this afternoon and early this evening. We will therefore keep a chance of light snow going...although most (if not all) accumulating snow will remain across eastern Missouri. We should see a decent temperature gradient across the region tonight with lows ranging from the upper teens across central Missouri to the upper 20s near the Oklahoma border. High pressure will then slide southeast across the Midwest on Thursday and will result in dry weather for the Ozarks. We will again see a good temperature gradient across the region with highs ranging from the lower and middle 30s across central Missouri to the middle and upper 40s near the Oklahoma border. .LONG TERM...(Thursday Night through Wednesday) Issued at 0231 PM CST WED FEB 10 2016 Another Clipper type system will dive southeast across the Corn Belt from late Thursday night into Friday morning. While any light snow activity is expected to remain to the northeast of the Ozarks, this system will bring another shot of colder air from Friday afternoon into Friday night. Temperatures may actually fall Friday afternoon...especially across central Missouri. Attention then turns to a potential system for late this weekend. Global models continue to indicate a short wave trough digging across the region Sunday afternoon and Sunday night. However, models continue to show differing scenarios regarding the extent of lift as well as thermal profiles. We have therefore continued with a rain/snow mix for now with some light snow accumulation possible. Behind that system, long wave charts indicate that the large scale pattern will deamplify. This should result in a warming trend early next work week along with dry weather. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Thursday Afternoon) Issued at 1151 AM CST WED FEB 10 2016 A winter clipper system was moving across areas of the eastern Ozarks but should remain east of the regions TAF sites. General VFR flight conditions are expected through the remainder of today and overnight tonight. Low level wind shear will impact the Branson terminal for a period late this evening but otherwise no impacts are expected. && .SGF Watches/Warnings/Advisories... MO...NONE.

text: The municipal complex of Costa Martiánez, the pride of Puerto de la Cruz, is one of the most widely admired examples of coastal transformation anywhere. A prestigious team of experts, led by the famous artist from Lanzarote, Cesar Manrique, carried out this work that blends in perfectly with traditional Canary Island architecture and boasts native plants and original sculptures. The artificial lake, with some 27,000 cubic metres of sea water, highlights the other four adult pools and three children´s pools. All is beautifully set in an original layout. There is a wide range of bars, restaurants, stalls and a night club - the only one in the world below sea level - giving the complex a very special vitality and making it one of the most striking attractions of the whole island.

In his seminal study Strategy and Structure, Chandler (1962) turned
the spotlight not only on the multi-business corporation but also on
corporate headquarters. Since then scholars have explored a variety
of phenomena related to this specific organizational entity. Yet,
corporate headquarters change defined as changes in size and scope
of corporate headquarters has received little attention thus far.
This study aims at investigating antecedents and outcomes of
corporate headquarters change. We argue that strategic change serves
as an important antecedent to corporate headquarters change and that
those corporations which adapt their corporate headquarters to
changes in the business portfolio achieve superior performance.
Rather counterintuitive, our findings contest previous conceptions
of predominant inertial forces with respect to corporate
headquarters. The study mainly contributes to corporate headquarters
literature and to the classic strategy/structure debate.

Winners of Reporters Without Borders 2012 Prize for Press Freedom announced.
On 19 December Mazen Darwish, the head of the Syrian Centre for Media and Freedom of Expression (SCM), and the Afghan daily newspaper 8Sobh were announced as the recipients of the 2012 Prize for Press Freedom. The award is presented every year, by Reporters Without Borders, Le Monde and TV5 Monde, to a journalist and a news media source anywhere in the world felt to 'have made a significant contribution to the defence and promotion of press freedom'.
Mazen Darwish received '2012 Journalist of the Year' for his 'courage and commitment to freedom of information'. Mazen is currently being held incommunicado and according to various sources has suffered torture since his arrest in February of this year. Reporters Without Borders in its press release reports that this 'staunch advocate of human rights and freedom of expression' has been arrested as 'a warning to journalists and all those who defend the right to information in Syria'.
The winner in the media category is '8Sobh' an Afghan publication. It received high praise from the Reporters Without Borders secretary-general Christophe Deloire ' who held the newspaper to be 'living evidence that freely-reported quality journalism can develop in the most difficult corners of the planet.'
Sanjar Sohail, editor and owner of the newspaper, explained what they hope to achieve with their work. Their vision is that thanks to 'consciousness-raising and to courageous, professional reporting' that they can help build a state that 'will become more responsible, more transparent and above all more democratic.'

There's no kiss-off message here, but the songs share the same Motown-inspired, shimmying, funky bassline. The aural equivalent of a fuzzy kitten or cuddly puppy.

She Has No Physical Defects by begemottWatch
©2013-2016 begemottMature Content
She has no physical defects. Mentally? - She is dead on the inside, but come on! just look at this fabulous hair.
"Gentlemen, this fallen angel is the illegitimate daughter of art and science. she can be yours and yours again, for her flesh is the incorruptible pale to be excused from the wages of sin."
This painting is so, extremely interesting. Really makes you wonder what is going on, and manages to feel like a political comment on the values of our society. Amazing work.
One fembot for sale, lightly used. May have some shelfwear.
Reminds me of scene from story "The Dead" by Michael Swanwick, dead was also tools of trade there.
Like Hoffman's - "The Sandman" - Olimpia character. Great piece.
cadaverous friends
this picture really sets your imagination on a spin, trying to understand what is really going on. great work!
Where'd you get the inspiration?
But what about her emotional defects?
Love how she's sitting...kind of like she's deflated while being judged.
Very intriguing work.
I like this work quite a bit. It's very ambiguous.
meat? the concept of meat? and how society searches for perfection throughout ALL the wrong methods? ... hm. indeed. very tricky.
Also, just because she's naked doesn't necessarily make her a prostitute; maybe a maid servant? Again, it looks like she just came out of a pod. They probably don't have clothes in pods.
Hmmm, never seen a coffin with seatbelts before...maybe more of a pod of some kind?
Very intriguing. Robots used as prostitutes perhaps or the dead even? Can't help but notice there's a hatch on her back.
Does this have to do with the book "Nights at the Circus"?
Very thought-provoking.
hmm..makes you think
Something dark and awkward about this.
Perhaps the ol' boy is looking for a replacement....as the wife is looking at her next stop?
Loads of intrigue.
Cheers, Barry
Loads of intrigue.
Cheers, Barry
It's really scary, sending people....like esclavagism or forced prostitution...and these boxes shaped coffins...is it a critical vision of our society?
Amazing, like ever.
Amazing, like ever.
Awesome detail
itt looks so cool! you could make an amazing story just from looking at this picture
nice painting... a sort of "future" victorian state or planet...
Definitely mysterious
It took me a minute to notice that those weren't wings and there was some red stuff in her back.. I guess she's some kind of robot?
The element of story in this image is great! Wonderful expressions on their faces.
The element of story in this image is great! Wonderful expressions on their faces.
I didn't know I was following you, but I'm glad I am. This is so intriguing, it really gets one thinking.
What is that thing sticking outta her back!? A coinslot!?? @_@
Haha! It's the back of her neck opening to reveal what's inside. I'm guessing she's not human
Oh god! Robot sex slave!? It's worse than I thought! No, that exclamation there wouldve been what I thought if it was a coinslot XD.
BUt huh...an opening. Maybe she's a computer? A spy? An AlIeN!? THe world will never know.

NFL, union at odds over HGH test
Updated: February 24, 2010, 11:46 PM ETESPN.com news services
NEW YORK -- The NFL hopes to start testing players for human growth hormone, and Major League Baseball has started talks with its union to investigate the test that led to the suspension of a British rugby player.
NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said Wednesday that the league had made a proposal to its players in January regarding HGH. Discussions are ongoing, he said.
"Our position is that HGH testing has advanced to the point where we are taking steps to incorporate it into our program," ...

Arizona Cardinals
Cards' Rich Ohrnberger moves from backup to starter
November 28, 2012: Cardinals start new center vs. Jets
Rich Ohrnberger was the center of attention Wednesday, both literally and figuratively.
The three-year veteran has played in all 11 games this season. This week, though, he slides into the starting center position after the season-ending knee injury to Lyle Sendlein.
"I'm just going out there," Ohrnberger said, "trying to keep things the way they've been and do as best a job as I can."
Sunday will be his first-ever start at center and only his third start overall.
In contrast, Sendlein's 75 consecutive regular season starts were the third-most among centers in the NFL behind Baltimore's Matt Birk (107) and Houston's Chris Myers (91).
"At least Rich has been getting some reps in practice with the second team," head coach Ken Whisenhunt said. "So hopefully, and he's played some this year, the transition will be smooth enough."
Ohrnberger believes it will be.
"It's really no difference," he said. "Right guard (his natural position) you have your right hand on the ground. Center you have your right hand on the ball."
Admittedly, Ohrnberger will have more responsibility. It's typically the center's job to call out the blocking assignments before each snap.
Add to that,having a rookie quarterback making just his second career start, and doing so on the road in a hostile environment
"(Ryan Lindley) has shown great poise all season long, even when he was just in a reserve role," Ohrnberger said. "His confidence is unwavered. I have a lot of respect for Ryan. We're comfortable with each other so it's good."
Comfortable enough to have his hands between your legs?
"Always have been," Ohrnberger said with a smile. "I accept all comers really when it comes to that."

Come enjoy the summer and get world-class tennis training at the Claremont McKenna College Nike Tennis Camp. This youth summer camp is ideal for campers wanting to work hard, have fun, make new friends and take their tennis instruction to the next level!
Claremont McKenna College has been the perfect location for Nike Tennis Camps for the past seven years. This year we are offering two weeks of day and extended day camp, geared towards USTA tournament level and elite high school players. Come prepare for your upcoming summer tournaments or commit to raising your game to new heights by focusing on stroke production and match play tactics.
Having spent the first fifteen years of their careers with the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP), Paul and Kathy began coaching at Claremont-Mudd-Scripps Colleges in 2004, where they have helped to bring the CMS men's and women's programs to national prominence. Kathy is a PTR certified professional, while Paul is a USPTA P1 certified teaching professional and a graduate of the USTA High Performance Coaching program. Kathy and Paul have collectively won 13 USTA National Championships - including four together - and have earned USTA year end #1 rankings in three different divisions.
In his ten seasons, Coach Paul Settles has established CMS Stags Tennis as one of the very elite in Division III. In the past five years, the Stags have earned top five year-end national rankings, and have been top three in two of the last three years. The Stags have won 49 consecutive conference matches and five consecutive outright conference titles, both program bests.
Paul Settles is a USPTA certified P1 professional and a graduate of the USTA High Performance Coaching Course. In December of 2008, Settles was named coach of Team USA in the International University Challenge, leading six top collegiate American players in an eight team international competition in France. Settles also serves as a coach for the Southern California Maze Cup Team (Boys and Girls 16s and 18s) against Northern California and is a member of the Player Services staff for the LA Open, an ATP World Tour event.
Settles has served as a volunteer member of two USTA national committees, the Collegiate and Adult & Senior Competition Comittees. He also serves on the Board of Directors of the Intercollegiate Tennis Association and is co-chair of the ITA Small College Operating Committee and task force on NCAA Legislative Issues. In 2006, Settles was named the USPTA Collegiate Coach of the Year by the California division, and in 2009 he was named West Region ITA Coach of the Year.
Before coming to CMS, Paul Settles served as Director of Player Services of the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP), the governing body of men's professional tennis. At the ATP, Settles' wide range of responsibilities included supervision of the Player Services Department, staff liaison for the ATP Player Council, Player Leadership Committee, and Board of Directors; and serving as founding committee member of the ATP Medical Services Committee.
Still an active player himself in the adult and family divisions, Settles is winner of 12 USTA National Championships. Paul, and wife Kathy - an Assistant Coach for CMS women's team - have four children: Ryley, Christian, James, and Caleb.
Prior to Brown, his head coaching career began at the Division III level for the men's team at Middlebury College (2001-2010).
During his tenure at Middlebury, Schwarz became the most successful men's tennis coach in program history, taking over a program that did not have a NCAA postseason appearance prior to 2001 when he arrived on campus. In 10 seasons at Middlebury, he had an overall record of 174-37 (.825), while leading the Panthers to national prominence. Under Schwarz's guidance, Middlebury made eight-straight trips to the NCAA final four, with the 2004 squad capturing the school's first NCAA Tennis national title. Schwarz's 2006 and 2007 teams set school records at the time, with 22 wins each season. Those records were eclipsed in 2010 when the Panthers earned a 23-2 mark en route to Middlebury's second national championship in men's tennis.
The ITA Division III National Coach of the Year in 2004, Schwarz was named NESCAC Coach of the Year in 2002, 2004, 2007, and 2010, and earned ITA Regional Coach of the Year honors in both 2009 and 2010.
A 1989 graduate of Cornell, where he played four years of varsity tennis, Schwarz began his collegiate coaching career at his alma mater in the fall of 1996 as the assistant men's and women's tennis coach. Following one year in that role, he became the assistant men's coach (1997-2000), spending the 1998-99 season as an assistant with the women as well. The Northeast Region Assistant Coach of the Year in 2000, Schwarz was also the managing director of the Cornell Tennis & Squash Center.
Originally from Providence, Rhode Island, Schwarz received a master's degree from Cortland State (N.Y.) in 1994.
This Tournament Training Camp is a great opportunity for junior tournament players to prepare for SoCal Sectionals and train like a top college team, with particular emphasis on match play strategy, mental toughness, and fitness.
Both Day and Extended day campers bring their own lunch. Lunch is supervised.
The Biszantz Family Tennis Center features 12 Plexipave hard courts with lighting and permanent seating on each court, a team room, locker rooms, and shaded observation deck, making the site ideal for a Nike Tennis Camp. This is a great environment for kids of all ages and abilities.
A detailed camper registration packet containing check in location, health/release forms, emergency contact info, and a list of things to bring will be emailed to all registered campers in the Spring. Our health and release forms do not require a doctor's signature and they will be collected on the first day of camp.

Coach Paul Settles holds the most professional, fun, and organized tennis camp!
Camp was seriously one of the best times of my life. I had fun playing tennis and I really like all the other activities we did as well. The coaches and staff were really nice and I made a lot of new friends I want to keep in touch with. See you next year!
It was an awesome experience with GREAT instructors! I can't wait until the 2014 Nike Camp at Claremont McKenna. Thank you Coach Settles!
Kathy and Paul,
Thank you so much for your great organization, enthusiasm, and fun over this past week. I was a bit worried about how it would work out given that it was so far away from us. But, it worked out beautifully! Our kids are happy (and tired) and this will leave lasting memories. What else can you ask for? You did a really really really nice job.
I wish you all the best in whatever else you do this summer. Take care and thanks again.
Just a short note to thank you again for the great time Chris had at your camp. I don't know what you all did at camp, but he came back refreshed and won four singles matches and made the semis of doubles at the Level 3 Regional Segment in Austin.
Dear Coaches,
I recently attended your Tournament Training Weekend at Claremont and wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed it. I appreciated the attention you gave to my serve and have had almost no pain in my shoulder since. I hope to be able to attend next summer, please let me know if there are any other programs for juniors on campus. Have a great summer and thanks again.
I just wanted to pass along how much fun Gavin had at your camp last week. I was able to see the last few days myself and he had a smile on the whole time. His coach, Drew, did a fantastic job and now that we are home, Gavin has the bug….he wants to go play all the time. Thanks, and keep up the good work.
Hopefully he will see you next year.
We will come back to this camp even though it is not the closest/ most convenient to our home. Directors are outstanding and tournament training was challenging.
This was my oldest child's 4th year at Nike tennis camp and next year my youngest will join him. Great program, dedicated staff, fun for the kids!
The Settles are fantastic camp coaches and leaders. My wife and I were more than slightly worried about how our not-overly-sports-driven son would take to a week of a camp focused on a single theme -- and a sport, at that. We were truly astounded and delighted: first and foremost, the camp program and the personal interactions of the Settles made the experience a great deal of fun; at the same time, our camper grew to enjoy tennis much more than the light interest he'd previously shown, which had led us to consider the camp. Finally, and least importantly, given only a week, the camp developed his skills and confidence in the game to a remarkable extent! Thank you for a fantastic experience that everyone involved hopes to repeat next year.
My daughter had a fantastic time, she is 11 years old. We sent her for the 3 day program, she wasn't sure if she wanted to do it, so we picked the minimum amount of days. She LOVED it!! She can't wait to go back and wants to go for 5 days next year.
Paul & Kathy Settles are wonderful coaches and amazing people. Their knowledge of tennis is great---but they focus on more than just the mechanics of the sport and emphasize character too. I would recommend their camp to anyone!
Paul and Kathy were masters at engaging and motivating my son. Their awesome staff did likewise. They didn't take the easy way out, and they didn't let him, either! But they also made it fun. When he got back home, he was ready to work harder than ever.

Oh my goodness, do you really think taking a mouse 200 feet away will get rid of a mouse. It will be back in the time it takes to run home.
Please don't complain of vermin unless you are asking about a humane way to kill it. Otherwise it's pointless!
I don't think they do rat-sized ones, but I have a couple of electric mouse traps, the mouse goes inside (it can't get back out as it has baffles in there), as soon as it steps on the metal bit to get the bait, pfzzzzz, mouse is dead, and triggers a red flashing light to let you know the deed has been done. Pick up with a carrier bag, invert trap and flip the lid open, the corpse will drop into the bag. knot the bag, put it in another bag, and it can go into household waste.
I have to do this, my husband is too big a wuss to do it. I don't like the ordinary spring traps, if they don't snap over the mouse's head, they can get a leg and then it's a slow death - unless you draw the short straw and use a housebrick to put it out of it's misery (speaking from horrible experience there). Yes, they are pricey, but well worth it as they're humane, clean and can be used with dogs and kids (I have both, and from time to time a mouse problem as I live in a house that's near a farm, the farmer is none to fastidious in his habits (that's a long story that involves environmental health, a pig ban and a chap that lives in the village that does aerial photography for a living!!)
I suppose you can always google electric rat traps to see if they exist, otherwise I'd use the specially designed pre-baited rat boxes, they're sealed so dogs and kids can't get at them. Was told by the Rentokil man that mice and rats won't share a house, so I suppose I get the lesser of two evils. I'm sure the farmer at the back has rats and worse.
i have rats visting one bin at the moment . and they make a great job of turning the compost for me . time for them to move on now . i take out the carpet and plastic sack . which they like to sit on . and leave the lid off and make sure no fruit goes goes in the bin for a while
Get a cat?
Archipem, you seem very relaxed about your rats. They all carry leptospirosis aka Weils Disease, so do take care when handling your compost.
My newly acquired Jack Russell has scared away the rats that apparently used to live under the concrete slab under the oil tank. They now live in a neighbour's garden; he shoots them with an air rifle as they walk along the fence.
When it comes to rats you need to get the big guns in....either local pest control or rentokil...based on a friends experience...she had rats which chewed through the concrete of her kitchen wall to access her bags of rice in her kitchen cupboards....after weeks of faffing around with traps, poison, my ace mouser Isobel (cat) etc rentokil turned up and the rats soon met their maker....never to return
I'm horrified at some on the answers on here!!!!
I live in the country so rats and mice can be a problem.
to DETER rats from even entering your garden is easier than you think ...
1 - just plant mint around the edges of your garden - they won't pass by it and it smells lovely
2 - plants and bushes should be planted 5 feet or more away from all buildings
3 - if you feed the birds (judging on some of the answers on here, you won't care or have any respect for animals) make sure that bird feeders are on poles (high up)
hope this helps to eradicate evil and nasty ways to kill an animal! what gives us the right to kill anything? they have as much right to be here as we do and we carry more diseases than anything - deadly ones too! list them and some on you would be trying to find ways of killing us!!!!
also (sorry lol) check around door frames and window frames for little holes and fill them
you can put open moth balls in basements and attics to deter them from entering your home
spray peppermint ... mix naphthalene flakes and gypsum with chilli pepper and scatter it around your home or on your garden
Apart from the fact that most of what you advocate simply doesn't work, you obviously don't have a clue ... napthalene is nasty stuff
"...Exposure to large amounts of naphthalene may damage or destroy red blood cells. Humans, in particular children, have developed this condition, known as hemolytic anemia after ingesting mothballs or deodorant blocks containing naphthalene. Symptoms include fatigue lack of appetite, restlessness, and pale skin. Exposure to large amounts of naphthalene may cause confusion,nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, blood in the urine ad jaundice(yellow coloration of the skin).
Over 400 million people have an inherited condition called glucose-6-phosphatge dehydrogenase deficiency. Exposure to naphthalene is more harmful for these people and may cause hemolytic anemia at lower doses.
When the US National Toxicology Program (NTP) exposed male and female rats and mice to naphthalene vapors on weekdays for two years, male and female rats exhibited evidence of carcinogenic activity based on increased incidences of adenoma and neuroblastomaof the nose, female mice exhibited some evidence of carcinogenic activity based on increased incidences of alveolar and bronchiolar adenomas of the lung, and male mice exhibited no evidence of carcinogenic activity.
The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classifies naphthalene as possibly carcinogenic to humans and animals Group 2B. The IARC also points out that acute exposure causes cataracts in humans, rats, rabbits, and mice; and that hemolytic anemia, described above, can occur in children and infants after oral or inhalation exposure or after maternal exposure during pregnancy. Under California's Proposition 65, naphthalene is listed as "known to the State to cause cancer".A probable mechanism for the carcinogenic effects of mothballs and some types of air fresheners containing naphthalene has been identified.
Thank you for that information Dovefromabove ... I obviously don't have a clue! ... about napthalene ... sorry to upset you so much
however - mint does work! I do have mint planted all around the edges of my garden and I haven't had problems with rats or mice.
Thank you for putting me right about the nepthalene
Rats, like greenfly and slugs, will always be with us.
The best thing you can do is to not give them a reason to hang about in your house or garden. Check for broken or missing u bends , broken or dislodged waste pipe traps and broken manhole covers.
Don't leave uneaten bird food lying around on the ground. Don't leave pet food or bird seed in easily gnawed bags and boxes in garages, sheds and cellars.
Keep compost heaps well covered and regulary turned.
if you have a pet, train it to attack them. I have had good results with both dogs and cats.
Rats .22 rifle, quick and the best way for the rat to go. I'm glad to say I've only had to shoot one in the last 12 months. If I hadn't though, by now we would have a family of them.
I purposely drop half the bird food on the floor for ground feeders. If you have a rat already, it will find it. Make sure it is safe for the shot (no chance of the pellet leaving the garden or ricochets causing damage). Do the business, get on with life.
I properly hate doing it but rats are not good for me, the family or the neighbour's. Having a compost heap in a rural area it is inevitable that they will need controlling at some point, so I take it as my responsibility to do it.
naphthalene is indeed extremely poisonous in its undiluted form. I use to work with the stuff it came in specially sealed drums and was stored and handled in a negative air pressure room and we had to wear special suites and breathing apparatus to enter the room.
I use a Belgian product called ToxaOverdose. It is sachets of blue grain pellets soaked in poison which kill the rats and other rodents quite quickly and then dessicates the corpses so you don't get the dreadful smell of decomposing bodies. It is faster than the ones containing warfarin that make them bleed to death over a few days.
Our house is an old farmhouse surrounded by arable fields and pasture so rodents are a permanent feature in the garden and they migrate into the house and barn and attic and garage in winter so out come the sachets. They've also been eating my pots and troughs of bulbs in the greenhouse this year.
I have a mousing cat and two dogs, one of whom is an excellent ratter but they can't get them all so I slide the sachets under and behind furniture and the stuff in the attic and garage so our pets are safe.
Not upset Minxy - just ever so slightly fed up with people criticising others when they don't know what they're talking about

That is not proof - we don't have mint all around the edges of our garden, but we have painted our fence Seagrass green and we've not had any problems with rats or mice since then - is that evidence that Seagrass green fences deter rats? Of course not.
And rivers, streams and ditches are frequently full of growing mint all along the banks ............... and frequented by rats ............ mint does not deter rats.
At a factory in Norwich large quantities of Mint Sauce and Mint Jelly are made - if your theory worked they would not need to take any action to keep rats away would they? But of course they do.
As for not having plants growing too close to buildings - yes, rats can access roof spaces etc by climbing up walls covered with creepers etc
However a member of my farming family stores tonnes of potatoes in modern concrete walled buildings without any grass, bushes, shrubs or similar withing 25 metres minimum - but he has to use bait stations to deal with rats as they still attempt to access the stores because they simply love potatoes - they will gnaw through cement to get at potatoes.
If mint worked it would have been used commercially years ago. I've got both water mint and ordinary mint in the garden, which has loads of small mammals living it. I was watching a wood mouse on one of my wildlife cams last night, and a big hairy spider, glad it was out there and not near me lol.
If you are going to kill a rat you might as well shoot it and kill it straight away rather then poison it and let it suffer. I am sure you or someone you know must have a gun.
