Transport minister Dr Harrison Mwakyembe has said that Tanzania needs hefty investment in railway infrastructure in order to cut cost of transporting goods.
He said the use of roads for transporting goods forced the end-users to bear the financial burden, making their lives harder.
Opening the 38th annual workshop of the Association of African Development Financing Institutions (AADFI), here yesterday, Dr. Mwakyembe said Tanzania depends on road transport by 95 per cent, which is very expensive.
"It is estimated that the cost of transporting one metric tonne of goods per kilometre by road in Tanzania is $15 cents. If we were to transport the same weight by rail it would cost about US$7 cents per kilometre.
"I don't have to convince you that lowering the transport cost in the economy by 50 per cent will have a booming effect, thus creating jobs, wealth and prosperity," Dr. Mwakyembe said, adding:
"While above 95 per cent of the heavy freight traffic in Tanzania is now transported by road, just below 2 per cent of heavy goods is transported by rail. This implies underutilization of the railway mode of transport and thus costing the nation dearly in terms of road maintenance funding."
He stated that the government was set to spend over 9trn/- to improve the country's infrastructure projects for the next five years, calling on international financial institutions to chip in and assist Tanzania to accomplish the mission.
Dr Mwakyembe said the estimated financial requirements will involve infrastructure development in railways, ports, airports and roads.
"I did not include electricity generation and transmission, telecommunication and fibre optics and the real estate sector. If you include all of that and consider only Tanzania, one out of the fifty-four nations on the conditions on the continent, then I think you understand the challenge that I am trying to describe in terms of financing infrastructure development in Africa," he said.
The minister noted that the AADFI workshop would play an important role in boosting the country's infrastructure development.
AADFI chairman and managing director of Tanzania Investment Bank (TIB) Peter Noni said that the forum provides an opportunity for the sector to grow as financial experts will have time to exchange views and experiences on how to boost the sector.
"Infrastructure is an important agenda in this meeting, because our countries have limited budget, hence depend on financial aid. So this meeting is an eye-opener for the sector to grow," he said.
"TIB has a role to play in this area as we need to get capital from other development banks and use it to invest and contribute to the country's infrastructure development," he said.

Low white blood cells and memories of our sunny Henley Regatta!
Hello lovelies,
How has your week been?
I have been cooped up in bed most of this week due to a significant drop in my White Blood cells. Normal levels of WBC is four to ten and mine is just one point six! Not good. As a result I have swollen glands, mouth ulcers and feel so weak. I have to stay at home and rest. I try to do a little internet browsing and social media for my business but it just completely wears me out. So forgive me if this weeks post is a little shorter than usual! Has anybody else suffered a drop in WBC due to Lupus or any medications? There are so many complications and side effect with this disease and the medications for it. Its amazing how serious a small cut can be if you have basically no immune system. I have a small cut at the side of my finger nail, which has become infected, and due to my immune system being so low at the moment (low white blood count) I cannot even take antibiotics! I have to be careful that the infection does not start to travel around my body….scary!!
Anyway, more pleasant things to talk about! Last week we had a mini 'Jump' reunion at the Henley Regatta. It was our first time to the Regatta, and Henley come to think of it, and it was beautiful. The weather was stunning and the place was gorgeous. Previous to the event we were sent tickets, car park badges etc and also the dress code. Oh my god, I didn't realise how strict it was! The ladies had to wear a dress with the hem line past their knee! Anything above will not be allowed entry. Now being five foot, nine and a half (don't forget the half!!), its not easy to find a dress that has a hem line below the knee but is not frumpy looking. Unless you go for a pencil skirt, which is too tight to wear in heat like last week, you can be a little stuck! Or at least I was. I had this lovely 'tea party' style dress from Betsy Johnson that I was planing to wear but it was just on the knee. Nicky was ensuring me that It will be ok and I cannot surely be that strict – can it? I was a little nervous so I took a back up with me. A long maxi dress from my online market place (shewearsacrwon.com) by 4G by Gizia. I am so glad that I did!! As we arrived and drove the car into the car park I was checking out all of the other outfits on show. There were quite a lot of long dresses (I guess people had the same problem as me?) and other than that, everyone had a dress that was just below the knee. Now I was panicking but pleased that I had my maxi! I made a quick outfit change in the car park and could now relax!
After a pleasant lunch with fellow jumpers, we headed off to a private enclosure to watch the races. Pimms and champagne were on tap (not for me as this was when I was starting to feel unwell unfortunately) and the boats were passing. Sir Steve Redgrave was so kind to organise for us all to go out on a boat. We took turns and each experienced the Regatta 'Track'. It was so lovely, so English!
Jason Gale, Nicky, Sinitta, Henry Conway and myself!
Nicky, me and Sir Steve!
Aww, me and Tash (Natasha Hamilton) looking fabulous with her bump!
Me showing off my fav Stephen Webster ring!
I absolutely loved our day at Henley and hope to return there soon, it's such a wonderful setting.
I must go and get some more rest now as I can feel my temperature rising. Hopefully I will have some more white blood cells when we next speak!
Take care bunnies!
Big love,

ATLANTA -- Extremely grateful and, at one point, fighting back tears Supermodel Niki Taylor flew back to Atlanta to thank a small room full of blood donors for saving her life.
At one point in her career, Taylor was at the top of her game. She had a lucrative modeling career and the world at her fingertips. However, a move off the catwalk on an Atlanta street nearly claimed her life in a matter of seconds.
Taylor describes the one car accident as "devastating" and she says speed was not a factor.
After the accident, Taylor said she started to experience severe abdominal pain and told the driver to pull over.
"If I had not told him that we needed to stop and if I had not gotten out of that car - and he kept driving - I would have bled internally," Taylor said.
Taylor thinks she would have died from her injuries if she didn't pull over.
"I am living proof that you never know when your life is going to change in a matter of minutes," said Taylor.

May 6, 2016
The driver in a Virginia bus crash last year that killed four passengers and injured dozens more has been convicted of four counts of manslaughter.
Caroline County Circuit Judge Joseph Ellis told Kin Yiu Cheung on Thursday that his conduct was "so gross and wanton," he had no choice but to find him guilty of all four counts.
Caroline County prosecutors called 15 witnesses, including several passengers on the low-fare Sky Express bus from Greensboro, N.C., to New York.
They described erratic driving, including weaving and repeatedly speeding up and slowing down, before the bus swerved off the road, hit an embankment and overturned. The crash happened in May 2011 on Interstate 95 about 30 miles north of Richmond.
Cheung faces up to 10 years in prison for each count.

WASHINGTON — Gun trafficking and the straw purchasing of firearms would become federal crimes under bipartisan legislation announced by five senators Monday.
Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., said the bill would establish tough penalties for those who buy a firearm or ammunition with the intent of transferring it to someone else. The measure also would make it a crime to smuggle firearms out of the United States.
Leahy said there is no federal law now that defines either gun trafficking or straw purchasing — when a person who can legally buy guns transfers those guns to criminals and others barred from gun ownership — as crimes.
The bill was crafted by Leahy, fellow Democrats Dick Durbin of Illinois and Kirsten Gillibrand of New York, and Republicans Mark Kirk of Illinois and Susan Collins of Maine.
"The absence of any federal law defining gun trafficking as a crime in this country is shocking," Gillibrand said.
The legislation will be taken up by the Judiciary Committee on Thursday as part of a package of four bills aimed at reducing gun violence. The others involve regulating assault weapons, enhancing school safety and requiring background checks for all firearm sales.
The Judiciary Committee has taken a lead in considering the gun violence issue following the school shootings last December in Newtown, Conn.
The proposed legislation would make it a crime to transfer a weapon when a person has "reasonable cause to believe" that the firearm will be used in criminal activity. It contains exemptions for the transfer of a firearm as a gift, or in relation to a legitimate raffle or contest.
While existing law makes it a crime to smuggle firearms into the United States, the Senate proposal also would ban the smuggling of weapons out of the United States.

Najibullah Zazi just learned a golden rule.
Never, ever lie to the FBI.
Zazi, the principal local suspect in the ongoing and unfolding international terrorism investigation that came into public view with raids in New York last week, has been charged with making false statements to the FBI. So has his father and another person. The thrust of the alleged plot seems to be that Zazi and others may have been cooking up a transit bombing somewhere in the United States similar to those in Madrid in 2004 and London in 2005.
A few self-critical kumbaya speeches have not and cannot erase the threat from radical forces who hate the United States and want to make things go bang here.
A careful reading of the affidavits filed in support of criminal complaints and arrest warrants reveals that — as usual in such cases — the FBI, the Joint Terrorism Task Force in New York, and without a scintilla of doubt, the U.S. intelligence community know a lot more about Mr. Zazi than has been publicly revealed. The U.S. Department of Justice is spooling out just enough rope to arrest and detain Zazi and his alleged co-conspirators.
The government is, of course, not going to reveal all of its sources and methods, but it is pretty clear that we have come a long way from September 11, 2001. Our counter-terrorism investigators are reading the labels on some of the bad guys' underwear. [See details of later government filings in posts here and here.]
Zazi's pitiful attempt to lie his way out of his possession of handwritten notes about bomb-making — in the context of a mother lode of backpacks and a scale useful for mixing bang-bang chemicals –are central to the false statement charge. In brief, Zazi claimed in interviews with the FBI that he unintentionally downloaded the instructions from a "religious book" [must be an interesting religion, what?] and immediately erased the book when he saw that it discussed jihad. But various means of intelligence revealed that he actually emailed the damning instructions to himself.
What follows is an excerpt from the FBI affidavit filed in Colorado. Keep in mind that Zazi is, of course, entitled to his presumption of innocence at law, and that the evidence the government refers to in this affidavit is certainly not all of the evidence in its possession. Moreover, this is no doubt a holding action as the investigation continues. [The complete affidavits can be downloaded from the U.S. Department of Justice website here.]
United States District Court for the District of Colorado, September 19, 2009
15. On or about September 11, 2009, FBI agents conducted a legally-authorized search of the defendant ZAZI's rental car, which was parked near the Queens residence. During the search of the car, a laptop computer was found containing a jpeg image of nine-pages of handwritten notes (the "handwritten notes"). The handwritten notes contain formulations and instructions regarding the manufacture and handling of initiating explosives, main explosives charges, explosives detonators and components of a fuzing system.
16. Rental records reflect that the defendant ZAZI was supposed to return his rental car in New York on September 14, 2009. However, on September 12, 2009, the defendant ZAZI flew from La Guardia Airport in Queens, New York to Denver, Colorado.
17. On or about September 14, 2009, FBI agents executed a court-authorized search warrant on the Queens residence. Among other items, the FBI seized a black scale containing several double A batteries. Fingerprint testing revealed that the defendant ZAZI's fingerprints were found on both the scale and the batteries.
ZAZI's FALSE STATEMENTS
18. On or about September 16, 2009, the defendant ZAZI was interviewed by members of the JTTF at the FBI [sic] in Denver, Colorado. The defendant ZAZI had voluntarily appeared at the offices of the FBI and agreed to answer questions. During this interview, the defendant ZAZI was questioned about, among several other topics, the handwritten notes found on his computer. During the interview, the defendant was show the handwritten notes. The defendant stated that he had never seen the document before. He further stated that if the handwritten notes was [sic] found on his computer, he must have unintentionally downloaded it as part of a religious book he had downloaded in August 2009. He stated that he had immediately deleted the religious book within days of downloading it after realizing that its contents discussed jihad. He stated that he had not handwritten the notes.
19. During the same interview, the defendant was asked about his email accounts, and listed three accounts, including an account known to law enforcement ("Account A"). The investigation has determined that the password for Account A is a nine-digit number. The investigation has revealed the existence of two email accounts known to law enforcement ("Account B" and "Account C"). A search of Account B registered to a "Kado Khan," reveals that another email account known to law enforcement ("the originating account") sent a message to Account B with the handwritten notes included as an attachment on or about December 2, 2008. The password for the email account is the same nine-digit password at [sic, probably "as"] the password for Account A. A search of the Account C, registered to a "kado gul" in Peshawar, Pakistan, reveals the originating account also sent an email with the handwritten notes as an attachment to Account C on or about December 3, 2008. Account C can be opened with a six-digit password that has the same first six digits of the passwords for Accounts A and B. Based on the similarity of addresses and identity of passwords, I believe that the defendant controlled Account A as well as Accounts B and C, both of which received the handwritten notes by email on early December 2008.
20. The document was analyzed by a handwriting expert from the FBI who said that, although a final conclusion could not be made until the expert examines the original document, the expert was able to assert that there were characteristics common to both the document found on the defendant ZAZI's computer and the defendant's handwriting exemplars. An FBI agent without training as a handwriting expert, who was able to compare the handwriting notes with the original handwriting exemplars stated that it appeared to be consistent with the handwriting as it appeared in the document.

Still Time to Apply and Register
Submitted on January 07, 2013 at 4:26 PM
An expansion of the music program and a focus on mobile technology are just two of the new offerings at Volunteer State Community College this coming spring semester. Registration is open now and classes start on January 17.
The new Associate of Fine Arts (AFA) in Music degree is part of the Tennessee Transfer Pathways program. That means it provides a clear path for music students who want to eventually transfer to a four-year college or university. It's streamlined to prepare students for university work and ensures that students receive credit towards their bachelor's degree. It also sets out exactly what classes a student needs to take, in order to transfer to a college or university in the program.
"The AFA degree is a continuation of the expansion of music offerings at the college," said Visual and Performing Arts Chair, James Story. "We want to keep providing students with more choices in the arts."
The commercial music program expands with two new evening class offerings this spring. The Music Publishing Seminar will teach students the basics of the music publishing business, with a Nashville publishing professional. Advanced Songwriting II features a professional songwriter working with students to develop lyric and composition skills.
Students in INFS 111, Introduction to Programming Logic Using Mobile Applications, will participate in developing an app for Android phones. Students will learn the foundation of computer programming while designing, developing, and deploying mobile applications that incorporate multimedia, GPS and other current technologies. You don't need an Android phone or tablet to take the course, since everything can be done using a simulator. There is a Prerequisite of INFS 1010 or the permission of the instructor. Contact Dan Arena at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Vol State offers day, evening and Saturday classes and in a variety of formats including online courses and hybrid courses, which combine traditional classroom meetings with online coursework. New students must apply to the College first. The application and registration process can be completed online or in person. To view the spring schedule of classes visit www.volstate.edu/schedule. Call 615-230-3688 for more information on how to get started.

How to Access
Select Components → Banner → Banners from the drop-down menu on the back-end of your Joomla! installation.
The Banner Manager is where you can edit existing Banners and create new ones. You can also navigate to the Banner Client Manager and the Banner Category Manager.
Column Headers
Click on the column heading to sort the list by that column's value.
- #. An indexing number automatically assigned by Joomla! for ease of reference.
- Checkbox. Check this box to select one or more items. To select all items, check the box in the column heading. After one or more boxes are checked, click a toolbar button to take an action on the selected item or items. Many toolbar actions, such as Publish and Unpublish, can work with multiple items. Others, such as Edit, only work on one item at a time. If multiple items are checked and you press Edit, the first item will be opened for editing.
- Name. The name of the Banner. You may click on the name to open the Banner for editing.
- Client. The Client for this Banner. Clients are entered using the Banner Client Manager.
- Category. The Category this item belongs to. Clicking on the Category title opens the Category for editing. See Category Manager - Edit.
- Published. Whether the item has been published or not. You can change the Published state by clicking on the icon in this column.
- Order. The order to display items. You can change the order by entering the sequential order and clicking the 'Save Order' icon in the column heading.
- Sticky. Whether or not the Banner is "sticky". If one or more Banners in a Category are designated "sticky," they will take priority over Banners that are not sticky. For example, if two Banners in a Category are sticky and a third Banner is not sticky, the third Banner will not display if the Banner display module setting is "Sticky, Randomize" or "Sticky, Order." Only the two sticky Banners will display. If the sticky banners have a fixed number of impressions, once those impressions are used up, the sticky banners will no longer display, and the non-sticky banners will begin displaying automatically.
- Impressions. The first number is the actual Impressions so far and the second number is how many Impressions were purchased by the Client. For example, '21 of 200' or '21 of Unlimited'. An Impression is how many times the Banner has been displayed on a page.
- Clicks. The first number is the total number of clicks that have been made on the Banner since the counter was reset. The second is the number of clicks on this Banner as a percentage of the number of Impressions for this Banner. For example, if a Banner has 48 Impressions (in other words, has been displayed 48 times), and the number of clicks is 4, then the percentage would be 8.33% ((4/48)*100).
- Tags. Optional Tags to be used for displaying specific Banners based on the content of the Article being viewed. If the Banner module Parameter 'Search By Tag' is set to 'Yes', Banners whose Tags match the Keywords entered for each Article will display when that Article is being viewed.
- ID. The ID number. This is a unique identification number for this item assigned automatically by Joomla!. It is used to identify the item internally, for example in internal links. You can not change this number.
- Display #. The number of items to display on one page. If there are more items than this number, you can use the page navigation buttons (Start, Prev, Next, End, and page numbers) to navigate between pages. Note that if you have a large number of items, it may be helpful to use the Filter options, located above the column headings, to limit which items display (where applicable).
At the top right you will see the toolbar:
- Publish. To publish one or more items, select them and click on this button.
- Unpublish. To unpublish one or more items, select them and click on this button.
- Copy. Select one or more items and click this button to copy them. A new screen will display showing the possible "Copy to" locations on the left and the list of item(s) being copied on the right. To complete the copy, select the desired "Copy to" location and press the Copy button. To cancel the operation, press Cancel.
- Delete. To delete one or more items, select them and click this button. The selected items will be deleted. Note: only empty items can be deleted.
- Edit. Select one item and click on this button to open it in edit mode. If you have more than one item selected (where applicable), the first item will be opened. You can also open an item for editing by clicking on its Title or Name.
- New. Click on this button to create a new item. You will enter the New page for this item.
- Parameters. Click this button to open the Banners Global Configuration window. This window allows you to set default parameters for Banners, as shown below.
- Save. Press Save to save your settings.
- Cancel. Press Cancel to cancel your changes.
- Track Banner Impression Times. Whether or not to count how many times a Banner is displayed.
- Track Banner Click Times. Whether or not to count how many times a Banner is clicked.
- Tag Prefix. When matching Tags (for matching Banners to Articles based on Keywords), only search for Tags with this prefix. This can improve performance.
- Help. Opens this Help Screen.
Clients and Categories Links
At the top left, above the Filter, you will see 3 links as shown below:
- Banners. This link is disabled, since we are already in the Banners page.
- Clients. Press this link to navigate to the Banner Client Manager page.
- Categories Press this link to navigate to the Banner Category Manager page.
List Filters
Filter by Partial Title
You can filter the list of items either by entering in part of the title or the ID number. Or you can select a combination of Category and Published State.
- Filter. In the upper left corner just above the column headings is a Filter field and two buttons, as shown below:
Filter by Category and Published State
In the upper right area, above the column headings, are 2 drop-down list boxes as shown below:
The selections may be combined. Only items matching both selections will display in the list.
- Select Category. Use the drop-down list box to select the desired Category. Only items in this Category will display.
- Select Status. Use the drop-down list box to select the published state: Published, Unpublished, Trashed, or All. For Articles, you may also select Archived. Important: With the default setting of -Select Status-, the screen only shows Published and Unpublished items. If you have the filter set to -Select Status- and you change items to Trashed, the Trashed items will disappear from the screen. However, they have not been permanently deleted. To do that you need to:
- Change the filter to Trashed. The Delete icon will now show in the toolbar.
- Select the items you want to permanently delete.
- Click on the Delete icon.
- You can see all items, regardless of their published state, by selecting All for this filter. You can also re-publish Trashed items by selecting them and clicking on the Publish icon in the toolbar.

A state line man has been upgraded to fair condition after a two-car accident Saturday afternoon.
Police said 22-year-old Eric Reith was heading east on 72 just after 3 p.m. He stopped at the stop sign at the intersection of Routes 72 and 251, but then started to go through it without seeing that another car was coming from the south on 251. The two then collided.
Reith's passenger, 26-year-old Phillip Gore was airlifted to Rockford Memorial where he's now in stable condition. Reith and the driver of the other car, 38-year-old Jesus Diaz was treated and released.
Reith was ticketed for failure to yield.

Abbott Laboratories is recalling its FreeStyle InsuLinx Blood Glucose Meters after finding that they display and store incorrect test results for dangerously high blood sugar levels.
The Abbott Park, Ill., company says the meters will display and store readings for blood glucose levels of 1,024 milligrams per deciliter or higher at much lower levels. That's an extremely high and rare level that requires immediate medical attention.
The inaccurate readings can lead to a delay in identifying the problem or incorrect treatment. Abbott says that can lead to serious injury or death.
Abbott says customers with the meter should contact its diabetes care customer service or download a software update that resolves the issue.
Johnson & Johnson announced a similar recall last month for several types of its blood glucose meters.

JULES WINTERS: The QUEST Program
sponsored by Drexel
University and Princeton is to
encourage New Jersey teachers
to start thinking a little bit
more out of the box within
their science classroom.
Specifically, they are looking
at the opportunity to answer
questions in a field
So they're learning hands-on
experiences regarding science.
We have teachers out
here for four days.
And from beginning to end they
will be developing their own
research projects,
the diamondback terrapin.
By doing so, they can come back
into their classroom and
use the scientific method in
teaching their students about
science, whether it's about a
diamondback terrapin or DNA
Dan Rubenstein of Princeton
University, he was already in
touch with the teacher prep
program within Princeton to
bring New Jersey teachers out
into the field to build an
inquiry-based professional
development program.
This year we're looking at the
impacts of the superstorm
Sandy, and seeing if the nesting
beaches changed in its
dynamics between this year and
last, and how that might be
affecting the terrapin.
PETE PASSE: I thought this would
be a great opportunity
for me to learn how scientists
really do research.
We are doing a unit
at [? Hillsboro ?]
Middle School in eighth grade on
environment, and I thought
this might be an opportunity
for me to put together some
kind of a research project
that we might do
with our own students.
MICHELLE HILL: This QUEST
Terrapin Research Program is
helping me immensely.
Because even I'm sitting here
struggling going, well, I
asked this question, but I have
no idea what I'm going to
use this data, or how I'm going
to take this data and
answer my question.
And it's amazing for me to be
able to sit here and do this
and then have my students try
and do this when I go back to
my classroom.
Just to have them visualize
and hands-on and thinking
about how to ask a good
question, or what is a good
question, or how can I answer
my question with my data.
And that's the basis
of science for the
rest of their lives.
PETE PASSE: I do with my
students much the same as they
did to us here.
When a student asks why is this
happening, I answer the
question with a question-- why
do you think it's happening?
And it's a great
way to learn--
You can read things in a book.
You probably will remember it
better if you've done it and
had the experience first-hand.

The sudden death of a young man is hitting a local community pretty hard. 11 News talked to family and friends tonight. There's speculation that Lance Money may have died from the flu, but the family is waiting autopsy results.
A lot of people are talking about this because he was young, otherwise healthy, and so well liked. He died suddenly, shocking the Fountain community.
Lance Money, 22, was found unresponsive by his mom Saturday morning. His older brothers told us, it's nice to see the outpouring of support, and said Lance himself would have be surprised.
"I also believe that he would probably throw his hands in the air and ask, what are you guys doing? Be happy," Lance's brother Scott Money said.
Friends and family told us this 2008 Mesa Ridge graduate loved basketball and was just overall, an optimistic and enthusiastic young man.
"He's just happy, go lucky 100% of the time," Scott Money said.
"He literally had no enemies, just one of those people I mean, (I'll) just always remember him like that," close friend Alek Belter added.
At this time, there's no official cause of death. His family told us he had been sick up to a week prior to his death. Now, they are waiting for the results of an autopsy.
"We all have many thoughts running through our minds, what could've happened, and why it happened and just many questions that are unfortunately all unanswered," Belter said.
The family knows a lot of people in the community are hurting. They're asking, instead of flowers, if you can, donate to one of Lance's passions instead. The family points out three donation recipients, the YMCA, Special Olympics, or humane society.
The Money family is setting up a memorial service for later this week, they hope to have all the information finalized by Tuesday, we'll let you know when it is.

as I said, sincerely-held views. Maybe run a poll? In my sincerely-held opinion, this hard core of naysayers are driving people away from here.. Though clearly I can't actually (and would not presume to do so, either) speak for them, It seems to me people like Padge, Riversiderontour etc who used to post regularly, no longer respond to the miseryguts posts.
Over 20,000 people paid to watch Wigan and Warrington last night. probably 200,000 or more watched on Sky and no doubt thousands more listened on the radio/internet. They can't all hate SuperLeague/RFL. Woods/Rimmer/Hetherington/Stobart/licencing/P & R/playoffs/club call/Sky/Eddie/Stevo/NFL/10 metres/uncontested scums/ etc etc.
Blahblahblah. I know people who used to post on here and got fed up of being talked down etc. Certain people on here dont like it if you post your views as they live in cloud cuckoo land and believe everything is great. If you post anything they dont like you are labelled as half empty and your views are ignored or classed as being anti RFL Anti Rugby League etc. I know a number of posters who stopped posting because of the anti Australian element on here. There are various reasons people have stopped. So shove your arrogant holier than though attitude where the sun dont shine :-)

created October 31, 2001 · complexity intermediate · author Charles E. Campbell, Jr. · version 5.7
You can use the "Visual Incrementing" script from http://mysite.verizon.net/astronaut/vim/index.html#VimFuncs to convert a block of numbers selected via ctrl-v (visual block) into a column of increasing integers. Select the column, press :I<CR>, and the first line's number will be used as a starting value. The number in each subsequent line will be incremented by one.
If the ctrl-v block is "ragged right", which can happen when "$" is used to select the right hand side, the block will have spaces appended as needed to straighten it out. If the strlen of the count exceeds the visual-block allotment of spaces, then additional spaces will be inserted.
Example: Put cursor on topmost zero, select column with ctrl-v, then :I
vector[0] = 1; vector[0] = 1; vector[0] = 1; vector[1] = 1; vector[0] = 1; --> vector[2] = 1; vector[0] = 1; vector[3] = 1; vector[0] = 1; vector[4] = 1;
This script works with both Vim 5.7 (:so visincr.vim) or Vim 6.0 (source it as for Vim 5.7 or drop it into the .vim/plugin directory).
" another way of generating incremented numbers "============================================================================= " File: increment.vim " Author: Stanislav Sitar " Put increment.vim into a plugin directory. " Use in replacement strings " :let I=0 " :%s/my_token_word_to_be_replaced_by_the_auto_incremented_numbers/\=INC(1)/ " or " :let I=95 " :%s/@/\=INC(5)/ " to replace each occurrence of character @ with numbers starting with 100 and " growing by 5 (100, 105, 110, ...) " " Instalation: save this text as increment.vim in your plugins directory "========================================================================= let g:I=0 function INC(increment) let g:I = g:I + a:increment return g:I endfunction
Visincr.vim has been improved -- it now uses virtual column calculations which avoids problems with leading tabs -- you may even mix leading tabs and spaces, incrementing only the visually selected column.
Other methods/scripts for incrementing scripts are available as:
- Srinath Avadhanula script#156
- Stanislav Sitar script#145
If you're interested in using substitute based approaches, you might wish to consider Stefan Roemer's <vis.vim>, which allows one to apply a substitute to just a visual-block. You can get a copy of his script at http://mysite.verizon.net/astronaut/vim/index.html#VimFuncs -- see "Visual Block Commands".
<visincr.vim> supports:
:I<CR> will use the first line's number as a starting point, incrementing by 1 :I #<CR> like :I, but will increment by given number; negative numbers work fine :II<CR> will pad on left as needed, otherwise like :I :II #<CR> like :II, but will increment by given number
More features for <visincr.vim>! There's now an additional script, <calutil.vim>, which adds some calendrical dates <-> Julian day conversion functions. With those, <visincr.vim> now has new commands:

Premium celebrates its 10th
18 Jan. 2013
Report: Premium celebrates its 10thYesterday, this year's winter edition of Berlin's Premium trade show was ending with quite positive results. The fair's 10th birthday edition, presenting a mix of newcomers and established brands from womenswear, menswear, denim, sportswear, shoes and accessories, took place from January 15th to 17th, held at its usual venue the Station/Gleisdreieck on Luckenwalder Strasse. The overall mood during the fair was very optimistic, with continuously crowded booths and busy areas. Both, buyers and exhibitors, were satisfied with the assortment and traffic at Premium.
"We've had a good fair, lots of people stopping by, new contacts and a few orders. The kind of intimate, yet casual setting at the fair and the quality of the customers fit our brand very well. The traffic was quite mixed, yet with the majority of German and Austrian visitors. For our brand, stressing the German market, with our new showroom and agent in Berlin, the fair is the right spot to be. We'll move on to Paris to meet our international customers there. Caroline Millar, Sales Executive Twenty8Twelve.
The fair, which is at full capacity, seemed quite packed with steady visitors throughout the three days. Of its 900 brands and 1,400 collections, 25% were new exhibitors. "This is our first season at the fairs in Berlin and we did quite well" says Siri Arnesen, Norway Agent for Petit Bateau reports. Especially known for childrenswear, the french brand participated in Premium to present their newly launched womens and menswear collection in cooperation with French designer duo Kitsuné. "As the line is quite new, meeting customers at the fair gives us a feel how the products are received. The set up and exhibiting labels here fit our brand very well. We had a good start, meeting new contacts."
Premium Berlin
Exhibitors especially appreciated the quality of the comfortable, relaxed, yet professional work atmosphere and overall direction of Premium. However, there is a demand for more international customers. "For us, Premium is the most forward show in Berlin and we feel perfectly presented here. We've talked to lots of new contacts mainly from Germany and Austria. Still, we'd love to welcome more international clients at the fair", Simone Chrystall, managing director of i heart says.
"We've been with Premium for many years, but this season was one of the best fairs we've done lately with lots of traffic and good customers. Even the last day was well visited, compared to other seasons, with brands and visitors leaving their booths and the fair quite early. I think, moving the show one day ahead may become very accepted, especially as Friday and the weekend is important for the retailers in-store business", Eric Oberstein, CEO CP Fashion and agent for Silver Jeans says.
This season, Premium started one day earlier due to the overlap with the trade shows in Paris. "In the long term and in the future we think it is a good idea to spread out the dates of Fashion Week Berlin. It shows that Berlin has grown. Nevertheless, all international schedules should be well coordinated and should accommodate the needs of the industry and all involved", Anita Tillmann stats.
Premium Young Designers Award
In addition, the seasonal Young Designers Award was once again handed out by Premium at their fashion store F95 at Gleisdreieck. The Awards went to belgium designer Tom van der Borght for best womenswear, to danish Asger Juel Larsen for best menswear and to italian designer Benedetta Bruzziches for best Accessories.
Premium Order
The show goes on: After international business has gotten underway in Berlin, it will then continue on the national level at the Premium Order from February 2 to 5 in Düsseldorf in Hammer Halls and then concluding in Munich at the Zenith Gelände from February 15 to 18.

Miss Universe Visits Guantanamo: 'A Loooot Of Fun!'
Miss Universe Visits Guantanamo: 'A Loooot Of Fun!'
The current 'Miss Universe' Dayana Mendoza (formerly Miss Venezuela) and 'Miss America' Crystal Stewart visited US troops stationed in Guantanamo Bay on March 20th, the New York Times reports. Here's Mendoza's account of the visit from her pageant blog last Friday. She says the trip "was a loooot of fun!"
This week, Guantánamo!!! It was an incredible experience...All the guys from the Army were amazing with us. We visited the Detainees camps and we saw the jails, where they shower, how the recreate themselves with movies, classes of art, books. It was very interesting. We took a ride with the Marines around the land to see the division of Gitmo and Cuba while they were informed us with a little bit of history.
The water in Guantánamo Bay is soooo beautiful! It was unbelievable, we were able to enjoy it for at least an hour. We went to the glass beach, and realized the name of it comes from the little pieces of broken glass from hundred of years ago. It is pretty to see all the colors shining with the sun. That day we met a beautiful lady named Rebeca who does wonders with the glasses from the beach. She creates jewelry with it and of course I bought a necklace from her that will remind me of Guantánamo Bay :)
I didn't want to leave, it was such a relaxing place, so calm and beautiful.

Introducing the Rackspace Cloud Control Panel
Previous section
The Cloud Control Panel enables you to manage your Rackspace Cloud infrastructure through a simple and intuitive interface. This article introduces you to some of the features of the control panel that will make your daily administration tasks seem effortless.
Control panel navigation
With a few clicks, you'll be in the product workspace where you can begin managing your cloud resources.
Product area headings (Servers, Networking, Storage, Databases, Orchestration, and Backups) run across the top of the screen. To access individual products, click the heading to view a drop-down menu of all the products in that area. For example, the following image shows the menu for Servers.
Rackspace Cloud products are categorized under the following headings:
- Cloud Servers
- Saved Images
- Auto Scale
- SSH Keys
- Message Queueing
- Rackspace Intelligence
- Load Balancers
- Networking
- Cloud DNS
- Block Storage Volumes
- Snapshots
- Files
- Database Instances
- Database Backups
- Configurations
- Object Rocket
- Big Data - Powered by Apache™ Hadoop®
- Stacks
- Cloud Server Backups
- Database Backups
Several features help you organize, find, and efficiently manage your resources no matter the size or shape of your cloud inventory.
Tags let you add customized labels to any of the resources that make up your cloud infrastructure. You are in charge of your tags–create as many as you'd like and assign them as needed. For example, you could distinguish your servers by their functional role, a certain website association, a specific technology, or even by geographical location.
Filters help you find all resources that share the following common properties: Tag, Status, Image, RAM, Region, or Type. The list of your filters is located at the left side of the control panel. When you create and tag resources, the list is automatically populated. When you select a check box next to a filter, the list of resources shows only the matching ones.
An example of what the filters might look like for Cloud Servers:
Tags are included in the list of filters, which gives you a powerful yet simple way to find only the specific resources that you want to work with. For example, you could filter your list of servers to show all 2 GB servers that you've tagged as Production. Using the Status filter, you can drill down even further and find the servers that are currently running, offline, or have a different status.
A convenient and fast search field in the upper-right corner of each asset listing gives you another method for locating any asset. Simply enter part of the asset name, tag, or IP address in the search field.
When you use tags, filters, and search, your cloud inventory can grow to any size and you'll still be able to promptly locate and manage any asset.
Administrative actions
The control panel provides a variety of ways to perform administrative tasks. Whether you're looking at a list of assets or a detailed view of a single asset, you don't need to leave your current location to perform a task–every task you might want to perform is accessible right where you are.
Actions gear
When viewing resources in a list, click the gear icon to the left of the resource name to access a drop-down menu with all available actions for that resource. The actions gear is always part of every list, whether it's a list of servers, files, or load balancers. The following image shows the actions gear drop-down menu for a cloud server named 1TestVyatta:
Actions menu
If you're looking at the details of a specific resource, you'll find the Actions drop-down menu in the upper-right corner of the screen.
Edit pencils and options
You can also edit an existing setting for a resource by clicking the edit pencil or option that appears next to the resource description. For example, you could rebuild the image or add a record by clicking the option that appears after the description for each setting.
Popup boxes
When you perform an administrative action on a resource, a popup dialog box lets you modify the settings or perform an action without taking you to another page. You can modify a resource much faster because you don't have to wait for the page to reload.
Accessing the Cloud Sites Control Panel
You can reach the Cloud Sites Control Panel by selecting the option from the Cloud Control Panel drop-down menu at the top left of the Cloud Control Panel.

Larry Hagman, who played scheming oil baron J.R. Ewing on TV's long-running nighttime soap opera "Dallas," has died. He was 81.
His family says in a statement that Hagman died Friday in Dallas. The statement was provided to The Associated Press by Warner Bros., which produces the new edition of the show "Dallas."
The actor gained TV fame with the fluffy 1960s sitcom "I Dream of Jeannie," in which he played Capt. Tony Nelson. But it was his portrayal of the ruthless J.R. Ewing that brought Hagman his greatest stardom.
"Who Shot J.R.," the 1980 cliffhanger episode in which Ewing was shot, was among the most-watched broadcasts of its day.
Hagman returned as J.R. in this year's new edition of "Dallas" on TNT.

Boston, MA (Sports Network) - After losing two straight times to the Boston
Celtics, the New York Knicks avoided a monumental collapse in Game 6 of their
Eastern Conference quarterfinal and ended a long drought of not winning a
playoff series.
The Knicks nearly blew a 26-point fourth quarter lead, but held on for a
88-80 triumph Friday at TD Garden.
Prior to this year, the Knicks had lost in the first round of the playoffs
four straight times and had five consecutive postseason series defeats going
back to a conference semifinal win over the Miami Heat in seven games in 2000.
Carmelo Anthony scored 21 points and hit a couple of key shots down the
stretch for the Knicks, who also received 17 points from Iman Shumpert.
Up next for the second-seeded Knicks will be No. 3 seed Indiana. The Pacers
finished off Atlanta in six games Friday night with an 81-73 road victory.
New York won the first three games of the best-of-seven set before dropping
the next two, but on Friday the Knicks never trailed and raced to a 21-5 lead.
They were up 75-49 with under 10 minutes left in the game before the Celtics
scored 20 in a row and got as close as four, and had momentum with Anthony
wincing in pain holding his left shoulder.
Avery Bradley's steal and dunk pulled Boston within 79-75 with 3 1/2 minutes
left to send the home crowd into a frenzy.
The Knicks, though, pulled through. Anthony's pull-up jumper from the right
elbow and his 3-pointer from the top of the arc created a nine-point margin.
No team in NBA history has overcome a 3-0 deficit to win a seven-game series,
but after Wednesday's 92-86 win triumph at Madison Square Garden the Celtics
seemed to have all the momentum.
They nearly pulled off the impossible Friday night.
Jeff Green totaled 21 points before fouling out for the Celtics, who also got
15 points and 10 rebounds from Kevin Garnett.

I can get passionate about most things.
Very quickly.
And be all in.
I'm notorious for trying everything and if I'm not good at it right away, I give it up. Likewise with causes. I'm an emotional appeal kind of girl.
Tell me statistics of there being more people currently enslaved than the entire trans-atlantic slave trade combined and I'll advocate on behalf of anti-slavery movements until I'm blue in the face.
At least, for a while.
But where I am weak is in follow through and sustainability. I'm not an executor beyond the short term. So when the LORD really started changing my heart and I saw the things that break His heart, my heart stayed broken, for a long time.
The brokenness began through many of the causes I participated in throughout various years. And there was always a theme – injustice. Be it child soldiers or slave labor, I walked the line of whatever was happening in current culture.
But I always came back to injustice. Especially against children.
When I began working for the ministry, my heart came alive at fighting for the cause of children in poverty. I knew that in order to truly end the horrors of injustice, it must begin at the root of the problem – poverty.
Poverty is enslavement in and of itself. To break the cycles of vulnerable children, child soldiers, child brides, sex slaves, etc, we must give these children a chance at life outside of poverty.
I saw this firsthand in India.
Our final day in Kolkata we went to a child development center visit. Before this, I had never seen the ministry's work in action. I was excited and a little nervous about the experience.
As soon as we disembarked in an unfamiliar urban setting, the eager children shyly put their flower garlands around our neck.
I was one of the last people off the bus, so somehow I ended up with three.
We were taken on a tour of the facilities and saw teachers trying to gently control wriggling children who were so excited about the foreigners they could hardly contain themselves. We played games in the courtyard and got to experience the registration process.
It was a mock registration but insightful and interesting nevertheless.
During some downtime, the center facilitator explained that when they actually register children, it becomes a mad house.
Though children are preselected, when word gets out in the community that the ministry is registering new children, people in the urban slums storm the gate.
He explained that the people will shove against the gate of the development center, jump over the walls, and sometimes get violent. Because they know their child's only chance at escaping poverty is to be registered with us. I curiously asked,
"Well, why can't you take more children? Are you at capacity? Could more children come?"
The facilitator shared,
"No, no, we could take many more children. We have room, we just don't have anyone to sponsor them."
Indignation rose in my chest.
Not on my watch. Not while there is breath in my body.
I vowed right then to tell this story. Because that is the story of this ministry. There is room – there is just no one to sponsor them. It's really easy to sell sponsorship by making people feel guilty, but that's not what we do here.
What I learned during my time in India is that what we do works. We are used by God to bring hope and a future to kids who might not otherwise have a chance.
For example, this child.
I got to meet this boy and his family during our home visit.
He's a sponsored child who lives in a tiny little shack with eleven other people.
But I didn't see poverty or despair while I was balancing precariously on their bamboo floor; I saw joy and gratitude on the faces of his family.
This family knows their son has a chance at life because of what the tireless staff and volunteers are doing in his community.
That is what I walked away with – we get the privilege to participate in changing the lives of these precious kids. That is the real reason to sponsor a child.
