Lyttelton outlaw takes on the authorities in boulder stand-off
Relevant offers
Joe Bennett
There are many ways to become a criminal, most of them drastic. Shakespeare's Macbeth, for example, did it by killing a king. I, however, have found a simpler way. I merely occupy my house.
By sitting here in this study I have rendered myself an outlaw, liable to a fine not exceeding $200,000 (how kind) or a term of imprisonment. The house, you see, has been red-stickered. It's an offence even to approach it.
An outfit called Port Hills Geotech, under the auspices of the council, decided last week that I am in "extreme danger" of being crushed by rocks. I am touched by their concern for my welfare, of course. Quite where that concern has been over the last six months, I can't tell you, but maybe they've just been busy.
Those six months have been entertaining. Within these walls since Feb 22 my lover, my dog and I have ridden out a thousand or more earthquakes. And in that time the number of rocks that have rained down upon us has been - one moment while I reach for the calculator; hang on, there we go - none.
On Feb 22 itself, when the land around here attained a vertical acceleration exceeding any recorded anywhere in the world, the number of rocks that rained down was - and here, sorry, another computational pause, tap tap tap - one. That single rock landed about 30m from the house and came to rest against my trailer. At the time I described it as being the size of a beach ball but I'm afraid I was exaggerating in the hope of seeming tough like Macbeth. It was the size of a football.
A few days later a woman arrived in a hard hat with a little light on it. Together we assessed the land behind my house and agreed that the chances of my being brained were negligible. And we've been proved right. During the six months of the most intense seismic activity that this region has undergone in the history of human habitation, my dog, my lover and I have hardly been crushed to death at all. Yet now, just as the earthquakes seem to be relenting, the authorities wish to add us to the refugee list. Well, I ain't going.
Friday morning I was here at work when there came a ferocious knocking on the garage door. "Who's there in the name of Beelzebub?" I called, quoting Macbeth.
Macbeth is on my mind because we are about to stage the play in Lyttelton. Our theatre's buggered so we're doing it in the rubble where the Volcano used to be. Do come and see it. It will be very different.
I emerged to find two burly men whom the dog swamped with love. But I was more circumspect for I had noticed they were carrying an aerial photo of my house with an X drawn through it.
The men did not prevaricate. They told me, bluntly, that I had to leave. I told them, as politely as I knew how, that I would not.
They said I could be killed by falling rocks. Now I acknowledge that this is so. I also acknowledge that I could be struck by lightning, consumed by the Ebola virus, or picked off by a transvestite Bulgarian sniper employed by the Vatican. But, daredevil that I am, I am prepared to live with all these risks. It is my house, my choice and my responsibility. None of which I bothered to say to the burly men. They were merely messengers.
Had the ostensible experts from Port Hills Geotech had either the courage or the courtesy to come and justify in person the decision they have made that would, if I were to obey it, disrupt my life, I would have said many things. And I shall in due course. But for the moment I merely told the burly men to tell their masters that they have a fight on their hands.
One of the men then produced the red sticker, which quotes sections 121 and 124 of the Building Act 2004 and is dotted with words like "pursuant".
"Where would you like me to stick it?" he said.
On reflection I am proud of my own verbal restraint. But as the men drove away in their council ute I spoke to the dog. "Dog," I said, "I'll fight till from my bones the flesh be hacked," which is of course Macbeth.
You can book tickets at the Christchurch Arts Festival website. I look forward to seeing you there.

Even in the 1870s, humans were obsessed with ridiculous photos of cats
LOL Cats, 1870s style: "Even in the 1870s, humans were obsessed with ridiculous photos of cats. If you think the notion to slap cutesy epigrams on top of photographs of kittens originated with the internet, think again. Deranged cat pictures have been around since the early days of photography. Once humans got their hands on cameras, the dignity of the domesticated feline was forever doomed."

I'm just getting into jQuery and notice strange behavior in the way some of my code is executed. When I execute a function based on a click action, the function runs twice, the first time with an "undefined" value for the click and the second with the expected value. The end result is the code "works" but I want to understand what I'm doing wrong that is causing this unexpected behavior.
Here's my jQuery code:
$(function() {
//$('#venue').buttonset().click(function(event, ui) {
//$( '#venue' ).buttonset().live('click', function (event, ui) {
$('#venue').buttonset().unbind('click').bind('click', function(event, ui) {
var venueName = $("input[name='venue']:checked").val();
if (venueName == "venue2") {
alert("About to deselect, venue: " + venueName);
$("#meallist option[value='Dinner']").removeAttr("selected");
} else {
alert("Doing nothing, venue: " + venueName);
Note the three different ways of expressing the click action at the top, derived from jQuery docs and previous answers on this site. All have the same outcome. You can try it here:
Thanks for any insight. I'm hoping it's a simple newbie mistake.

Deciles 'proxy for quality': Minister
Relevant offers
Decile ratings, Novopay, Investing in Educational Success and students with special needs were the hot topics which fired up a public meeting on education.
Education Minister Hekia Parata has held several similar meetings around the country but said the one at St Peter's Cathedral church hall, Hamilton, on Friday, had the best turnout so far.
The crowd of around 100 included principals, parents, grandparents and board of trustees members.
Rhode Street School principal Shane Ngatai asked for Parata's view on the decile rating system.
The system was well-intentioned but a "blunt instrument", Parata said, and more consultation was needed on a system to meet schools' needs.
Deciles had also become a proxy for quality.
"We hear it far too often - 'Oh, that's a decile one school. Oh that's a decile 10 school.' - As if that's an explanation of whether there's good quality teaching and learning going on there. And that is not true."
When questioned about the Novopay situation, Parata said the system had been "a bit of a dog".
But there was light at the end of the tunnel with a Crown-owned company set to take the system over, she said.
The education payroll was one of the largest and most complex and the ministry had been looking at improving the online platform.
But there also needed to be discussions with unions about simplifying the agreements - "Not losing anybody's rights and conditions, but simplifying them," she said.
The government's $359m Investing in Educational Success (IES) policy was behind Kaihere School principal Terry Casey's question.
He wanted the minister's take on the process as he thought there was a "degree of suspicion and scepticism" from NZEI, which felt it was brought in at the last minute to make superficial changes.
Parata said the working group included all interested and was a "coalition of the willing".
"There has been no conspiracy, there has been no unwillingness to work together."
The government had co-designed the budget initiative with the sector ahead of the budget - which Parata said was unusual. It had also invested in lifting the status and profile of teaching, and was now looking to raise the quality of teaching and leadership practice, she said.
"We're very serious about how can we support all of our teachers to develop their practice, to constantly improve," she said.
"When we were in surplus, a big chunk of it has gone into education [through IES]."
But Deanwell School principal said he'd prefer to see the money go to children with special needs because schools were "hopelessly under-resourced".
Parata agreed the demand exceeded the resources available and said special education needed to be looked at as well as IES, not instead of.

Here's the question you clicked on:
Joe decides to take his six year old son to the planetarium. The price for the child's ticket is 5.75 dollars less than the price for the adult's ticket. If you represent the price for the child's ticket using the variable "x", how would you write the algebraic expression for the adult's ticket price?
a = adult ticket x + 5.75 = a
how did u figure that out?
If you know the childs ticket is 5.75 LESS than the adult, and x represents the price of the childs ticket. The, you just add 5.75 to the child's ticket to find out how much the adult ticket would be
oh i would have never gotten that cause i thought u would subtract. thanks
you're welcome :)

As Brigid reported earlier this month, Mark Siegel is on tour promoting his new graphic novel Sailor Twain (which I reviewed here on Robot 6). First Second has photos from one of those events, the book's launch party on board an actual boat that sails on the Hudson River, the Clearwater. Most of Sailor Twain takes place aboard a Hudson River steamboat, so the Clearwater was an especially appropriate venue even though it's a sailboat and doesn't run on coal. First Second marketing director Gina Gagliano speculates that "maybe they are all gone because it is not the eighteen hundreds anymore?"
Hit the jump to see the Hudson from the sloop's bow as well as pictures of honest-to-Neptune Sailor Twain wine. And if that's not enough for you, heed the siren call of the First Second blog for even more.

Instead I got "I have news for you in car.... call me when you have a moment or I will try you again" not unusual for dealer but still a pain."

This week our church is having our first ever Baptism Sunday. That's not to say we don't baptize people often, just that we haven't dedicated a specific day for the purposes of Baptism before this in our church's history--and for good reason. The church I'm apart of doesn't believe you wait until a specific day to get baptized because that means you'd be following some religious tradition rather than choosing to make a commitment to follow Jesus whenever He calls you. The church I'm a part of says "there is no creed but Jesus." We're not trying to get you to follow a list of rules. We're not trying to clean you up and get you more religious. We're definitely not trying to get you to practice empty rituals and long-winded liturgies. We're just trying to point you to Jesus.
It's simple. Jesus died for all of us, for the forgiveness of our sins.
We don't need to look very hard to discover we're covered in mud. If we can't see it on ourselves, we can turn on the tv or consider a broken friendship or relationship we're still wrestling with. Someone's sin is at the heart of every argument, wound, broken relationship, politic, newsreel, and heartbreak. And though we'd like to believe we're not that bad... the standard we hold others too is hypocritical because we can't even keep ourselves from messing up. None of us is perfect.
But there was One who lived a sinless life. We still hear about Him as a good man. His words are never very far from the highest example of integrity and wisdom... "do unto others as you would have them do unto you." The golden rule is the standard of perfection because it embodies the life of Jesus. "Christian" used to mean a person who modeled their life after Jesus--a "little Jesus". But let's face it, people don't think very highly of Christians anymore. We've all seen too many "Christians" contradict Jesus... we're seeing it all over the place right now in the Presidential campaigns, right?
So at our church, we don't hold people to an impossible standard, we invite them to a Perfect person--Jesus who is fully man, and fully God. How do we know? Because Jesus didn't just live a sinless life and forgive our sins by His death and burial... He rose from the grave and ascended into heaven. Hundreds saw His scarred hands and feet, and told the world--even when they were murdered because they would not deny what they had seen. And now everyday people tell how Jesus encounters them, through the conviction of our sins, the mystery of the Jesus's living Spirit, and the Scriptures that come alive in us as we walk in His Spirit.
Baptism is a picture of this spiritual life. Jesus believers are baptized for "the repentance of our sins". Our submersion is a symbol of our death to sin. We are no longer slaves to our whims, our angers, our temptations, our selfishness--our sin. Our emergence from the water is a portrait of rising from this death... our new life has begun. We're choosing to follow Jesus now, allowing Him to teach us what it means to live gracefully, love fully, forgive intentionally and ask for forgiveness constantly. We will never be God, but He promises to live in us so that the world can see the difference He makes in us. Rather than saying "{your name here] is so perfect!" people will say "{your name here] is so different!" And the difference is the invisible feeling we have around this person... they're more loving, joyful, patient, peaceful, kind, faithful, self-controlled, gentle and good.
This doesn't happen because there is anything special about the water. It's just faucet water, and it won't change anything about us. It's meeting God that has changed us, seeing that He has pursued us by sending His Son Jesus to show us what love looks like.
I remember my baptism at 21. Though I'd been baptized as a kid, I knew it hadn't been my decision, and my early adult years had been filled with hypocrisy. I was that "Christian" who looked nothing like Jesus. I had some religious ideas, some bible talk and some family tradition... but I hadn't met Jesus myself. And then, while at college partying myself into trouble He broke through my fog. My conscience was quickened, my heart was stirred and my sixth sense was aware there was a lot more going on around me than I could see with just my eyes. There were times I should have died, but somehow I was rescued inconceivably. There were coincidences I couldn't write-off, and miracles that filled my mind with wonder. And one day it was all too much and tears streamed down my cheeks because I felt there was a God and whoever He was, He seemed to be trying to get my attention. So I set out to learn who He was, reading the Bible and the Hebrew Scriptures from cover-to-cover, reading all the books that challenged His existence, and asking questions of anyone who claimed to have met Him. From 18 to 21 I uncovered every rock, and finally concluded there was more to this life than me. All the religions I studied were too... religious. But, when I read about Jesus, He was different. He wasn't trying to establish a cult. He wasn't out to grow a following. He said He knew the truth about the way the world was put together... that He had been there with God when it was created. The Hebrews scriptures taught me that God knew the number of hairs on my head, and loved me so much He would send a Messiah to save me... to save everyone. And only Jesus proved that He was the One. He was the only one to return hatred with kindness, to trade His life for mine, and to overcome death with His resurrection. I knew Jesus was unlike any other god. And when I sensed Him confirming my search... I asked, "what do you want me to do now?" And His answer was simple.
Follow Me.
So I did. And one of the first things He said to do in the Scriptures was to be baptized. It's a day I'll never forget, filled with tears and relief. The symbol still makes me smile now from ear to ear. Covered in His love, drenched in His forgiveness, and marked with His Spirit. I'm different now and everyday with Jesus is filled with incredible gratitude for what He has done and does miraculously through daily life.
Baptism didn't save me... Jesus did and does. Whatever He says to do, I'm in because I've watched His words bring other people so much joy, life and even salvation. I know one thing is true for all of us, Jesus's Spirit tugs at our hearts to know Him. That's one of the reasons I like sharing my story because maybe God can use it as His voice in your life today. If you hear Him today, don't be afraid... you're not crazy. God is real and He is very good, you just need to trust your sixth sense and do whatever He tells you. Who knows, maybe one day you'll follow Jesus into the water of Baptism too? One thing is for sure, God loves us dearly and He wants us to know Him definitively.

Obama laments how the Founding Fathers are messing up the Dems' quest for total control
**Written by Doug Powers
At a Thursday fundraiser in Chicago, President Obama perfectly illustrated why the Founders included the "two U.S. Senate seats per state regardless of population" rule in the Constitution:
"Obviously, the nature of the Senate means that California has the same number of Senate seats as Wyoming. That puts us at a disadvantage," Mr. Obama said.
The Founding Fathers decided in the "Great Compromise" in 1787 to apportion House seats based on population and give each state two seats in the Senate regardless of population. The solution was a compromise between large states and small states in a dispute that nearly dissolved the Constitutional Convention.
The president also blamed "demographics" for the inability of the Democratic Party to gain more power in Congress, saying Democrats "tend to congregate a little more densely" in cities such as New York and Chicago. He said it gives Republicans disproportional clout in Congress.
"So there are some structural reasons why, despite the fact that Republican ideas are largely rejected by the public, it's still hard for us to break through," Mr. Obama said.
In other words, "it's a real problem for us that the Founders gave a bunch of backwards country hicks in flyover states certain protections from out-of-control enlightened coastal and big city liberal elites." Ironic to hear precisely the kind of mindset that inspired Founders to include that protection in the Constitution complain about how unnecessary it is.
This isn't really a new topic for Obama. A week earlier he "joked" about convincing big city libs to move to red states:
At a fundraiser in New York City on Wednesday night, Obama told a story about a woman in Brooklyn who asked what more she could do to help the president.
"And I said – 'move to North Dakota,'" Obama joked.
As the crowd laughed, Obama explained that "If I could just get about a million excess votes in Brooklyn out to Nebraska (or) Wyoming, we'd be doing okay – I don't need 80% of the vote here."
By the way, whose "ideas are largely rejected by the public"?

This was a great service! Since I flew in and used magical express, I didn't have a car to stop at the store and get snacks and drinks. And of course the drinks at the hotel and the parks are outrageously priced! It was wonderful to be able to order my soft drinks and alcohol, have it delivered to my hotel, and have it available my entire stay! The money I saved by bringing just a few drinks in the park every day paid for the Garden Grocer delivery fee just in the first day! I will definitely use this service again!
Thank you for the excellent service! Our stay in Orland was so easy not having to run to the grocery store.
Garden Grocer website was easy to use and it was so convenient to have groceries delivered to our vacation resort. We would recommend this service and in fact, have already!

Big jump on Geithner's plan, but are many banks really going to want to put toxic assets out there for auction while mark to market is in place? If the auction values assets valued at 60% closer to 40%, won't that force another round of markdowns & require more government capital, diluting common shares?Maybe some of this reality was setting in today despite some positive numbers on housing starts & durable goods & today's late bounce was due to DOW holding 7500?Could go either way from here, but I think I'm going to hold SKF at $105 now.I think the reality of Geithner's plan + bank stress test results are likely to shake the financials hard again in the coming month or so at least a couple times.Thoughts?
