On 5 July, KPMG and the four other organizations involved in rescuing the "Île aux Clowns" announced their plans for the organisation's future.
KPMG Luxembourg Société coopérative presents its 2015 Transparency Report, as required by Article 73 of the Luxembourg Law of 18 December 2009 on the audit profession.
A company's externalities have, historically, had little or no impact on its cash flows or risk profile. For this reason, externalities have been largely excluded from the measurement of corporate value.
Sensing an opportunity with the transposition of the AIFMD into national law in July 2013, Luxembourg has had the foresight to build added-value into the legislation by introducing favourable measures for the establishment of fund raising vehicles.
The report takes into account industry data as stated in the 2015 annual reports of the CSSF and the BCL, as well as the ranking data published by the Luxemburger Wort.
The participation exemption is one of the most important features of the Luxembourg tax system. It provides a 100% exemption on dividends and capital gains which stem from equity investments. The brochure explains the rules in detail.
KPMG is pleased to present its updated sixth edition of the Luxembourg Regulated Investment Vehicles brochure, incorporating the recent changes in the legal and regulatory environment.
The AIFMD will have a significant re-shaping effect on the alternative investment fund industry in Europe and beyond.
We seek the facts and provide insights. KPMG Luxembourg organises thought leadership events relevant to the needs of our clients. Find out more about our Events & Seminars below. We are looking forward to meeting you.

American Indian Tools
In the times when the Native Americans were the only people living in what has become the United States they were also coming up with new and different American Indian tools that helped make their lives a little bit easier. The majority of the American Indian tools that were used by many of the indigenous Native American tribes were made out of different types of stone, but there were also some tools that they made out of wood or animal bone.
One of the American Indian tools that has been found in many parts of the country are drills that are made out of stone, and these can be seen in many museums and in the collections of many private collectors of American Indian artifacts. These Native American drills were used for many different things from making weapons that they would use for hunting and also for drilling beads and other things that the Native American tribal people would use to make their arts and crafts.
Another of the American Indian tools that were commonly used among the Native tribes to grind herbs and seeds is a tool called the mortal and pestle. This tool was also used to grind corn to make one of the most popular of American Indian foods, cornbread. The Native American tribes also created many other things that were tools for them, and another of the American Indian tools that was used daily was the stone ovens they made where they could bake their pottery and also cook their meals. There were also many other tools such as the infamous arrowheads and spears, and another utensil that was an important part of the American Indians daily lives was the tools or utensils they would use to carry water, which were jars and pots that the Natives crafted out of the Earth's clay. The American Indians also made many other tools such as fishing nets that they would make out of strands of animal sinew, which they also made very strong rope from and the string on their bows was also made from the animal sinew and this was an important hunting tool for the Indian people.

What is Happiness?
Happiness is a state of well-being characterized by contentment, love, satisfaction, pleasure or joy.
How is Happiness Related to Mental Health?
The concept of mental health overlaps with happiness. Although in the past, mental health was concerned more about disorders and illness, mental health is now being seen in more positive terms.
"Mental health is not just the absence of mental disorder. It is a state of well-being in which every individual realizes his or her own potential, can cope with the normal stresses of life, can work productively and fruitfully, and is able to make a contribution to his or her community."
-- World Health Organization
So What's the Secret to Happiness?
Countless philosophers throughout history have tried to figure out the secret to happiness, and no doubt, all of us strive for happiness in our own way... Interestingly enough, there is now a whole field of "happiness" research that is actively studying what makes people happy.
Research in the area of "positive mental health" shows that the following activities make a significant difference to people's mental health:
Take Care of your Body
- Get enough sleep. For more information, visit the Sleep Foundation.
- Be physically active and get enough exercise. For more information, visit the Public Health Agency of Canada.
- Eat a healthy, nutritious diet
Connect with People
- Spend time and energy in family and friends. For more information about making friends, see the Making and Keeping Friends Guide from SAMHSA.
- Thank those that are important in your life
- Engage in charity: Give to others, and do acts of kindness
- Forgive: Holding on to anger and resentment hurts you more than the other person. Forgiving others allows you to move on.
Take Care of Your Mind
Studies show that having a positive mental attitude can be helpful, which includes:
- Be grateful for that which you have in life
- Live in the present moment, as opposed to focusing on the past, or future.
- Having positive coping skills. Studies confirm that people are happier when they have positive attitudes and emotions and coping behaviours, as opposed to negative attitudes, emotions and coping behaviours.
Take Care of your Spirit
- Studies show that being spiritual, and feeling connected to something beyond yourself can be helpful. Spirituality is about having a sense that your life has meaning and value. Religion is one way to be spiritual. Studies show that spirituality, and not religion per se, is what contributes to our happiness.

Fall 2004
When Dee Dee passed away at the end of June in 1996, there was an incredible display of visual effects in her room until the mortuary took her away. The air glittered, and small oval shaped rainbows appeared in the room about every minute. All of us who were there felt like we were in the presence of grace.
After Dee Dee died, my friend Daryl and I drove straight through from Denver to Dallas for her funeral. It was an incredible drive through New Mexico and western Texas where tornadoes spread out on the panhandle horizon to warn that the journey could be perilous. But still riding the emotions of what we had seen at Dee Dee's death, we felt like no harm could come to us. Two months later, on the first day I went to work for the PWA Coalition, Jeff Davis died and I ended up going with the Board President to see Jeff's family. It seemed a continuance of purposeful predestination guided by powers not understood, but coincidence seemed like a less and less viable concept in the world of AIDS.
In the grieving process, one often has casual conversations with the deceased. I think it helps in the journey of accepting their physical absence. Because of this communication between the worlds, it took me many months before I wasn't living on both plains.
Almost a year later, I met Shelley at an AIDS, Medicine and Miracles Conference in Denver. We had known each other for a while professionally but not until that afternoon did we allow our hearts to be open enough for an incredible energy to flow between us that took over our lives. We believed that the AIDS angels in our lives had brought us together. It seemed like this dual existence of living in constant blessing was never going to end. We married 16 months later in a community ceremony that overflowed with love, hope and good wishes for everyone. Although we included hopes for children in our vows, I certainly didn't believe that would come to fruition. I was more certain of that when less than a year later, Shelley suffered an ectopic pregnancy on our third try of using donor insemination. We talked of trying again or adoption, but months turned into years and our work at the Coalition became all consuming. We lost touch with friends, we took on our client's lives as our own and that became a self fulfilling prophecy. Our lives were our clients' and our organization.
And yet, we kept putting one foot in front of the other to find a child. Faced with the incredible costs of international and private adoption, we began to look at foster adoption. In the spring of 2003 we started the process with Boulder County; went through our indoctrination, our weekend trainings, our Red Cross certification and endless paperwork. Early that summer, they rejected us. I lost hope. At the time when I needed some of that "grace" and some of those "blessings," I didn't seem to have any on reserve. Four years of giving hope to my clients had left me with no hope at all. I called tech support to draw upon my spiritual connections and discovered that due to neglect the lines had been down for years. I began to think of the events of the last decade to have been nothing more than coincidence. It was a dark time.
Two months later, on a Saturday in late July, our friend Shirley called with news of a young woman who was 6 ½ months pregnant and looking for a family for her baby. We met the young mother two days later and hit it off. On October 6, 2003 at Porter Hospital, I held the birth mom and Shelley cut the cord and our daughter came into our lives. We named her Grace. Grace Monet McKittrick. We took her home the next day.
Over the next two months, we were challenged, as all new parents are with the tasks of having a newborn. I felt assured that my experience as a caregiver would make parenting a piece of cake. Buzz! Wrong! But thank you for playing. Trying to balance clients, parenting and keeping an organization afloat seemed impossible and it was. I was frustrated and exhausted and basically toasted. Here was the ultimate blessing in my life, handed to me in a precious bundle and I was not being able to celebrate her presence as much as I wanted to. I remembered a minister I had heard in Indiana while I was on tour. It was around Thanksgiving of 1992 and she reminded us that many blessings were given to us daily, but we failed to recognize them. "So, quit it, just quit it" she had said to us. I also recalled all the friends I lost to this disease who hoped that someday people living with HIV could go on with their lives and not live daily in fear of when they would be the next to die. I was a beneficiary of that legacy and I wasn't fulfilling its promise. I had to make a choice, and I chose my family; my daughter, my wife and myself.
Grace has just turned one and I have been able to spend the past year watching this amazing young being grow from a helpless infant to a walking, running, talking and curious-about-the-whole-world toddler. She says Daddy and comes to hug me, pats me on the back and kisses my cheek. And then she lays back on the rug and stares up at me with those beautiful brown eyes and I'm just eating it up. With that gift comes the child's complete belief that you will always be there for them. I hope to be. I choose to take the legacy left to me to live long and prosper. All I need is a little Grace in my life.

This is a fun little idea that I had that can work for just about any sport. It's great when the bench gets emptied in a big win (and only in wins) and we get to see the walkon's ball for four or five minutes. I'm challenging you to take a look at the roster and pick out one guy you can really pull for when he get's on the court, be it a Mike Smith or a Mark Currie. It'll give you someone to check stats on as well as something to spark a little discussion here....
I am still trying to adopt that 17 year old korean girl.......
Currie's the man! but I'm bias since he's in my classes
dustin streff- he grew up 8 miles from home town in alton, ia.
streff, he grew up a few miles from me
so im going to go out on a limb and say that JPOP grew up a little over a few miles from cycfan1

haha... looks like a pretty sturdy limb to me...
Vitte, Dulcedo, Sipes
I grew up about 15-20 miles from Alton, so where do i stand in the mix? That being said, I lived in the room directly next to Chris Ceaser my sophomore year before he was even on the team. We used to go to the rec together so ya gotta show that man some love.
I have no hometown connection to any of them but I'd probably pick Streff. For least favorite Bergstrom, well all know his family's money toward the FB practice facility helped his cause out...

10-20 images
and processed thru autopano (kickass program btw!). a couple shots were done with my phone tho.. hah. it was too much work to pull out the 7D sometimes :P
Can you tell me if the program just stitches together in a left-right pattern, or can you do say 5 shots left to right, but aimed higher, and 5 shots left to right aimed lower, and stitch everything together?
I saw a picture the other day where a pro put something like 400 pictures together to make a 700 megapixel shot, then had it made into a 11'x8' print.

The personalised messages are on quite cheap looking card, the ribbon was quite wrinkled, and a big blob of glue was visible on the front of the box where the ribbon was attached. Although my friend loved it, i feel that for what it is, it is a bit over-priced.

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills
Real Housewives of Beverly Hills OMG Moments From Season 4, Episode 18 — Lisa Leaves!
Talk about out of control! We love how many crazy moments The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills manages to pack into one episode, whether it's a fully clothed dip into a fountain, or an explanation on why to save receipts. Here are our picks for the top five most ridiculous moments from Season 4, Episode 18: "The Kids Are All Right."
5. Brandi buys her dad a car!
Brandi Glanville and her dad continue to make progress, all thanks to Yolanda Foster. And we agree with Brandi that it was quite clever to give him the new car at Yolanda's house, where he would feel funny about rejecting it. That said, if Brandi ever wanted to give us a new car, she should know we would gladly accept.
4. Carlton supports Lisa. Huh?
Feuds on this show always have a way of creating unlikely allies. That was the case this week, as a teary-eyed Lisa Vanderpump and Carlton Gebbia — who had never been particularly close — bond over their mutual ire toward Kyle Richards and the rest of the ladies. Carlton even refers to the ladies as bloodthirsty sharks. Yikes. Uh, aren't Carlton and Brandi supposed to be besties?
3. Lisa and Ken (begrudgingly) head to the party
We've never seen two people less excited to attend a party than Lisa and Ken are as they head to the 100th anniversary shindig for Beverly Hills. Ken certainly doesn't have nice things to say about the ladies, as he points out that they are no longer his friends, so let's hope things don't get too intense at the party next week.
2. Yolanda and Kim's daughters are college-bound
It was very sweet to watch Kim Richards and Yolanda each wish their daughters well as they respectively head off to college. And by the way, we've never in our entire lives seen a college student have a nicer place than the one Gigi has. Any chance we can move in there with you, G?
1. Lisa bails on the group vacay
We can't say we blame Lisa for ditching the group in Puerto Rico, since trying to explain why she and Ken were leaving would have just been awkward. But to the ladies' credit, they all vowed not to talk about Lisa behind her back for the rest of the trip. That was certainly admirable, even if it might have been too little, too late.

WHITTIER - As high school basketball games go, Wednesday's Whittier-California contest was a classic.
In a packed Cal High gym and with sole possession of first place in the Del Rio League at stake, the host Condors held off Whittier, 60-54, to remain undefeated in league at 4-0 and improve to 15-5 overall.
Whittier fell to 3-1 in league and 11-9 overall.
The teams will meet again at Whittier in early February.
Cal High was led by Matthew Lambrecht, who had a game-high 24 points, including five 3-pointers. The senior guard also had six rebounds and five steals.
Whittier junior guard Guillermo Blas had a team-high 21 points, including 12 in the fourth quarter, and six rebounds.
"Whittier-Cal, our `nest,' the student section and both teams with 3-0 records, lots of intensity and tons of fans with a crazy environment, that really gave us an advantage," California coach Jason Van Duyne said. "You couldn't ask for anything more on a Wednesday night."
California led 52-47 with 36 seconds remaining when senior forward Sergio Cisneros (10 points) went to the free-throw line. He made all four attempts and finished 8 for 8 from the line.
After an early show of nerves in which both teams missed eight shots in the first three minutes, California's Andrew Garber scored the game's first basket on a layup with almost three minutes gone in the first quarter.
Cal went on a 10-4 late in the quarter to take a 16-10 first-quarter advantage.
Whittier, which finished second to Cal last season in league, scored only seven points in the second quarter and trailed 31-17 at the half. But the Cardinals started the third quarter with an 11-0 flurry to make it 31-28.
Blas and junior guard Julio Torres each hit 3-pointers to highlight the run.
California sophomore guard Anthony Rodriguez (7 points) broke the Cardinals' run with a layup and, after two free throws by Whittier senior forward Jerry Leon (7 points, 9 rebounds), Lambrecht again took over.
He scored eight points, including two from behind the 3-point line, in just 46 seconds to give the Condors an 11-point halftime lead, 41-30.
"I think we came out flat and allowed them too many opportunities (third quarter) and my shot started falling and went with it," Lambrecht said.
Whittier outscored the Condors 37-29 in the second half.
"Hopefully we can come down and play for the league title with them (California)," Whittier coach Joey Mata said.
Senior forward Ryan Schroll added seven rebounds and seven points for the Condors.

So, I finally decided to ask this question since I am struggling with figuring it out on my own.
I would like to lay down to nurse the late evening/night nursing sessions, but can't seem to get it right because I have a large chest. I'm not perky at all and my boobs aren't nice and round (sounds dumb but figure you need all the info...). I have tried putting a folded up washcloth underneath my boob, but it doesn't seem to put the nipple at the correct angle for my 3 1/2 week old.
I was looking at the Utterly Yours Breast Pillow for during the day so I don't have to hold my breast all the time while nursing, but not sure if it will work laying down.
Any suggestions????

Ashleigh Sloop
On May 12, 2010, Deputy Brown was assigned to 4C Dormitory. Deputy Brown was notified that the inmate assigned to cell 4C-02 had activated his emergency call button. He immediately responded to Inmate's cell. Upon speaking with inmate, Deputy Brown observed blood on the wall of the cell and also noticed blood coming from inmate's left arm. Deputy Brown immediately placed mechanical restraints on the wrists of inmate so that he could not harm himself further. He then called via radio that there was an attempted code orange in 4C-02 and requested that the Charge Nurse and Supervisor respond. The inmate was moved to the 4 south multipurpose room where his wounds were treated by Charge Nurse. The inmate stated that he had used a toothbrush to cut his arm. Because of the self inflicted wounds and the nature of the wounds the inmate was re-classed to cell 8D-08 and placed on Active Suicide Watch. The promptness and attentiveness of Deputy Charles Brown prevented the inmate from inflicting additional injury.

Uganda's Kill Gays Bill author not coming to US National Prayer Breakfast
Timothy Kincaid
January 18th, 2010
David Bahati, the author of the Ugandan Anti-Homosexuality bill which, if passed would dole out penalties of death or life imprisonment to Uganda's gay population and prison sentences for their heterosexual friends, told the Sunday Monitor that he would be traveling to the United States in February to attend – and perhaps speak at – the National Prayer Breakfast.
Dr. Warren Throckmorton has followed up on that claim and reports it to be incorrect.
However, according to Bob Hunter and others with the Fellowship Foundation, Bahati was invited months ago to come to Washington DC only as a volunteer and not to attend the NPB event. According to these sources, Bahati declined the invitation prior to introducing the Anti-Homosexuality Bill. According to Mr. Hunter, the Monitor article and Bahati\'s statements came as a complete surprise to the NPB officials here. However, in the event the article was accurate, the NPB officials and Congressional leaders were taking action to assure that Bahati did not come to any of the meetings.

Topic: Kongregate / [New] Split test on the game page
I like that the game descriptions and updates have their own tab now, and that there's a "other games by this dev" tab too. Nice that the comments are closer to the top now, and I LOVE that the comments tab is open by default now. The forum tab default was a small but really annoying problem. I could do without the new layout for game dev, tags, bug reports and plays though. I really don't care which side the comments are on, and most people will probably adjust to it after a week or two.

Rurigan was a male Yaderan. He lived on Yadera Prime until it was conquered by the Dominion in 2340. Unhappy with the changes brought on by the Dominion, he decided to move to one of the planet's colonies, and created a holographic reproduction of his village complete with copies of his old friends.
In 2370, when Odo and Lieutenant Jadzia Dax landed on the planet, the holographic figures were disappearing due to a faulty transformer, which Dax was able to fix to restore Rurigan's world. (DS9: "Shadowplay")
Rurigan was played by Kenneth Tobey.

Hangeliers: Clothes Hanger Chandeliers by Organelle Design
Posted By Daniel Flahiff On October 26, 2009 @ 3:30 pm In Design,Green Furniture,Green Interiors,Green Lighting,Innovation,Recycled Materials | 7 Comments
Clothes hangers are clogging our landfills at a rate of nearly 8 billion [1] per year. We've recently brought you designers who have been developing brilliant ways to tackle the problem through eco-friendly materials [2] and innovative new designs [3]. Now industrial designers Alex Witko and Courtney Hunt at Organelle Design [4] have hit upon another great idea — Hangeliers [5], wonderful chandeliers made from off-the-shelf plastic and wood hangers.
As many Inhabitat readers already know, re-purposing objects, recycled and/or found, can be a tricky business. It takes time, a good eye and not a little bit of luck. With Hangeliers [5], Organelle Design got it right. Organelle uses re-purposed off-the-shelf hangers, which removes them [if only temporarily] from the landfill cycle. Hangeliers [5] are unique, beautiful and draw attention to the issue of landfill waste at the same time.
Not to be confused with 'The Langoliers' [the notoriously awful TV movie based on Stephen King's novella] Organelle's Hangeliers [5] are reminiscent of modern masters such as Nelson and Henningson—elegant design, precise thinking and a subtle nostalgia. With their commitment to innovation, sustainability and high design, Organelle [4] is certainly a shop to watch.

Oklahoma Guard leader says troops aren't going back to being "Weekend Warriors"
Maj. Gen. Myles L. Deering, Oklahoma National Guard adjutant general, warns against deep cuts to reserve forces as the military winds down from two wars.
The following open letter was written by Maj. Gen. Myles L. Deering to all Oklahomans about the looming challenge faced by U.S. military leaders and Congress to identify the right force mix for the Regular Army and the Army National Guard. Deering is the Adjutant General for Oklahoma.
Senior U.S. military leaders and Congress have some difficult decisions to make about the size and composition of our military. The Budget Control Act (BCA) and subsequent reductions to defense spending will force the military and political leaders to make some tough calls in the near future about how limited resources will be allocated in the coming decade across all the services. This is especially true for the active Army and the Army National Guard.
The plentiful resources the military enjoyed for more than a decade as we waged war in Iraq and bring the war in Afghanistan to a conclusion are being replaced with budget cuts. A reduced Department of Defense budget has created a debate between Pentagon officials and the National Guard about force structure and how the reductions in spending will be applied to the Regular Army and the Army National Guard.
We shouldn't go back to the days when the Guard was a seldom-used strategic reserve. And while no one is saying that's what they want – how the cuts are administered will say a lot about how top Army brass views the Guard today.
Whatever decision is made, it must be based first and foremost on ensuring our ability to protect our homeland and accomplish our national security interests. From that starting point, we must proceed along a path that is both fiscally responsible and absolutely ensures our men and women in uniform are highly trained and properly equipped to accomplish whatever our nation asks them to do.
There are two differing schools of thought about what is needed in terms of future force structure. Some senior Army officials believe it's a mistake to shift some of the responsibility for ground combat forces to the Army National Guard and they are vehemently opposed to the Guard assuming additional peacetime responsibilities in this area. While there are practical arguments in both camps, I believe some of this concern isn't based on today's reality, which is the Guard is now highly trained and readiness levels have never been higher. Unfortunately, it appears that some senior leaders would rather not debate the issues, but would rather push the Guard aside and relegate us back to "weekend warriors" in order to save force structure in the active component.
Prior to the first Gulf War in 1990, and even afterward in some circles, senior level Army officials doubted the combat effectiveness of some National Guard units. While some Guard outfits did in fact struggle with preparing for combat more than two decades ago when the U.S. removed Saddam Hussein's Iraq Army from Kuwait, the ineffectiveness of a few units seemed to stain the overall reputation of the whole in the minds of some leaders.
Some 20 years later came 9/11 and the Guard rightfully joined our nation's response to terrorism. While all units are different in terms of ability, there can be no doubt the National Guard fully proved itself during the last decade as it served alongside regular Army Soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan, whether that was in a combat-support role or actually in fighting units. Some who once thought it was fashionable to discount the abilities of the reserve and Guard components could no longer do so as the Citizen Soldier performed admirably and with distinction.
More than 63 percent of the National Guard has deployed to either Iraq or Afghanistan and 37 percent has deployed multiple times, according to National Guard Bureau data. No other state has deployed more Soldiers per capita than Oklahoma since 9/11.
Having served in Iraq alongside thousands of great Americans, you can't tell a difference between active duty and a guardsman these days. More than one-third of our Oklahoma Citizen Soldiers have deployed multiple times and many of them have been to both Iraq and Afghanistan defending and fighting for our nation.
There is a tremendous amount of experience in the National Guard today and this certainly isn't the Guard of decades ago when we only trained 39 days a year.
Of upmost importance to the national treasury and taxpayers, it costs billions less to field comparable Guard units to active duty units. Active duty Soldiers live in subsidized housing and many draw retirement benefits for life beginning in their late 30s and early 40s. Traditional Guardsmen don't earn housing allowances and don't receive retirement pay until they reach the age of 60 under current rules. Multiple studies have shown that a National Guard Soldier costs about a third of an equivalent active duty Soldier.
In the coming weeks, military leaders will try to reach a compromise and I'm confident that will happen if we have a full and honest debate about the effectiveness and value of the Army National Guard. However, I am in no way diminishing the importance of having the best Regular Army we can afford. A highly-trained, modernly equipped and an adequately manned active duty fighting force is absolutely critical to our national security. Our men and women serving on active duty installations and in warzones around the world deserve the full and complete commitment of our nation and its financial resources.

Prepaid credit cards not reported to credit reporting companies
Dear Experian,
What prepaid credit cards report to Experian?
Dear FRE,
Prepaid credit cards are not reported to Experian at this time. They are part of a category of credit-like information that the industry refers to as alternative credit data.
Alternative credit data includes a number of things that resemble traditional credit in that you make regular payments over time, but they aren't exactly the same. In addition to prepaid credit cards, alternative credit data includes utility bills, cellular telephone contracts, and even rent payment.
Experian and our industry counterparts believe that reporting positive payments for these types of relationships would be very beneficial to consumer trying to establish credit for the first time. However, there are a number of obstacles to including the information in credit reports.
In some cases, state laws prohibit reporting utility payments. In other instances, it is a matter of the company not having the ability to meet existing legal and technical reporting, updating and dispute resolution requirements. Also, because such payments are often for necessary services or are made prior to receiving the goods, they may not be as predictive as traditional credit accounts, and thus, won't be able to effectively replace them in evaluating risk.
We think that in time we will be able to address those issues, but for the time being, the information isn't a regular part of a credit report.
Thanks for asking.
- The "Ask Experian" team

He Said/She Said
LOS ANGELES— Dear He Said... She Said...
Now, mutual friends tell me that he's been seeing another girl on the side. What can I do? Is it wrong for me to snoop in his e-mail to see if I can find anything? I feel like I've wasted all this time on nothing.
Unmarried Old Maid
Dear Unmarried Old Maid,
You are a perfect example of why I frown on live-in relationships. Do not get me wrong, been there, done that. Living together without a formal commitment is easier, compared to a formal, legal one. It is like owning a business with someone and not having it on paper. If something happens, you just walk out of the door and move on.
I always believed that you do not get committed until you are really 100 percent certain. If you are sure that he or she is the ONE, then you get hitched and make it work. Sure, it will be hard and there will be problems, but if you do not want a long-lasting relationship, stay single.
In your case, Old Maid, it is time to hit the road. Your partner does not show any interest in marriage, so why be so dense about it? Go get your own place and cultivate friendships with guys who want to get married. There are plenty of them out there. You are going to find someone and then slap yourself in the head for waiting so long to fulfill your heart's desires.
Dear Unmarried,
What do you expect? If Bristol Farms is giving away free food, are you going to go to Ralphs to buy your groceries? No way! You will go where you can get free food without paying the bill. Get my hint?
I have friends who are "shacking up" and they swear by it. These same friends wonder why they do not receive roses, gifts and surprises like I do from my boyfriends. They often have to be the initiators of their relationships. Then, they complain when they do not get romantic proposals.
OK, it is the new century, and we have to grow with the times. I agree! However, sacrificing your self-respect to cash in on some of the comforts of a marital relationship comes with a price. If you like living without the honeymoon, then do not complain when you do not get one.
Oh, and if you are having relations, which I imagine you are, you are creating a risk to have a baby (not to mention a sexually transmitted disease!). It is funny when my friends think I am weird for not having sex. I say, "How do you have safe sex?" They reply, "You can use a condom (I think: 82 percent protection), or you can use birth control pill (99 percent protection), or you can use a diaphragm (77 percent protection)." What happens to the 1 to 23 percent chance (which I happen to be: the 1 percent chance my parents risked!)? That's a baby!
Now, should you stoop to his level and check his e-mail? This is probably where you think the answer will lie. Check his e-mail, only if you promise you will learn from what you find. I am certain you will not, though.
As far as I am concerned, all is fair in love and war. If he KNEW you wanted to marry and settle down before he moved in with you, and he is now just playing the field, then he has already started the war with love. So, go through his e-mail and have a good time. Just promise me you will start looking for a new apartment (we have a great classified section on page 11!).

Investigators say 30-year-old Gerald Clemons hid the teens behind hollowed out furniture at his home on Gibbs Drive.
Tallahassee police began their investigation in September when a runaway was found at Clemons' home. At the time he was told not to do it again.
But Leon County sheriff's investigators got a tip that he didn't heed the advice.
OFC Lyman Babcock with the Leon County Sheriff's Office says, "We went to the house and Mr. Clemons consented to us going in the house, and lo and behold we found another young lady hiding behind a hollowed out dresser."
Clemons is charged with three counts of contributing to the dependency of a minor.

The shock attenuation cylinders are components aboard an Template:ShipClass starship.
In 2371, Lieutenant B'Elanna Torres completed a maintenance check on USS Voyager's shock attenuation cylinders, noting that they would have to be replaced in another 2,000 hours. (VOY: "Prime Factors")

cyan, i totally agree
i was halfway through edit quoting your last post and realised, i agree with all of it lol
the halo series is a good series though.
overated? yes.
but at the end of the day, it looks good (not brilliant but still good enough) and plays good too, which is what you want in a game.
totally agree about the gta4 thing too, its not as "godly" as some would make it out to be
and with mgs3 vs mgs4, they do seem like two totally different genre's even though they are both stealth games. but i think thats just down to the different mechanics involved in the stealth (painted camo vs high tech octocamo etc)
good shout though cyan

Deaths Scenes
|Film Title/Year and Description
In this 20th James Bond film (the fourth with Pierce Brosnan as Agent 007), there were two spectacular death scenes.
In the first, the main villain's burly bodyguard, Mr. Kil (Lawrence Makoare) was torturing NSA agent Jinx (Halle Berry) with electric shocks on a table with robotic multiple laser arms. Bond saved Jinx's life by turning off the laser gun, but found himself in a life-death struggle against Mr. Kil amidst multiple laser beams wildly projected around the torture room. Their fight ended with Kil's death - when Bond was about to be stabbed, Jinx got ahold of the control device for the lasers, turned them back on and projected one beam to drill a hole through the back of Kil's skull and emerge through his open mouth. After being freed, Jinx lasered off Kil's hand so that they could use it to exit the dome via the biometric hand scanner.
In the second sequence, Bond was in a vicious fight against mad world-dominating villain Gustav Graves (Toby Stephens) onboard his massive cargo plane. As Graves prepared to exit the fiery plane with the last remaining parachute, he taunted Bond:
Bond pulled Graves' rip-cord, and the villain was sucked out of the side of the plane through a gaping hole.
As Graves clutched the side and was hanging on for dear life, Bond quipped: "Time to face gravity." Bond jolted him with a blast of voltage, causing him to let go and propelling him into the plane's jet engine.
Death of Mr. Kil
Friday the 13th, Jason X (2001)
Part 10 of the horror/slasher series with the hockey-masked serial killer Jason Voorhees (Kane Hodder in his fourth and last screen appearance as the character, from 1988-2002) was in a sci-fi setting -- the 25th century on alternate planet Earth Two.
In the morgue of the spaceship Grendel in the year 2455, experienced pretty blonde lab worker Adrienne (Kristi Angus) examined Jason Voorhees' frozen corpse. She had been instructed to dissect Jason's cryogenically stiff body.
When the bloodthirsty Jason thawed further (due to sexual activity on the ship) and reanimated with his superhuman strength, he abruptly sat up on the morgue table.
Adrienne was suddenly grabbed by the face and by the chest as she screamed and protested.
Jason dunked her head into a sink filled with liquid nitrogen (shown from the sink POV), flash-freezing her face. Jason then smashed the front of her face on the table countertop nearby, shattering it into pieces and finally tossed her body (without the front of her face) to the floor. It was the beginning of Jason's killing spree onboard the spacecraft.
Gangs of New York (2002)
Martin Scorsese's historical epic drama told about the mid 19th century territorial conflicts in Lower Manhattan's Five Points district of New York between crime boss-supported gangs (of "nativists") and groups of recently-arrived Irish-Catholic immigrants.
Violent, racist white Protestant "Native" gang leader Bill "The Butcher" Cutting (Daniel Day-Lewis) was mortally wounded (by shrapnel) during a massive gang war in Paradise Square that was coincidentally interrupted by a simultaneous Civil War-related event - the Union Army's cannon shelling of New York during the draft riots of 1863.
As the underworld leader looked around at the apocalyptic carnage, mostly from the shelling, he smiled and sighed in a relieved tone to his vengeance-seeking combatant.
He had been fighting ex-surrogate son Amsterdam Vallon (Leonardo DiCaprio), the son of the dead Irish immigrant leader named Priest Vallon (Liam Neeson), head of the "Dead Rabbits."
He allowed the blood-soaked Amsterdam, with a subtle nod of his head, to fatally stab him with his knife, and then keeled over while gripping Amsterdam's hand.
In a close-up, his eyelid was shown closing over his glass eye that was imprinted with an American eagle.
Cutting's body was buried in a Brooklyn cemetery next to the grave of Priest Vallon, within view across the river of the skyline of Manhattan.
Ghost Ship (2002)
Director Steve Beck's horror film had the clever tagline: "Sea Evil."
The scary opening massacre sequence was set (in the early 1960s) on-board an Italian luxury ocean liner named the Antonia Graza.
A fancy, on-deck dance party was being held with songstress Francesca (Francesca Rettondini) in a fancy strapless red dress entertaining the wealthy guest passengers by singing "Senza Fine."
Slightly away from the party, a mysterious gloved hand pulled a lever that unraveled a very thin cable wire. After the wire tightened, it sliced across the deck - bisecting everything in its path: flowers, people, tables, heads, and bodies. The taut thin steel wire vibrated, covered in blood.
For a few seconds, stunned individuals stood frozen - they did not realize that they had been cut in half until their bodies tumbled in bloody pieces to the ground.
The Captain's (Bob Ruggiero) face was sliced through his mouth, and his head toppled forward off his neck stump, as he protectively sheltered a young girl named Katie Harwood (Emily Browning) beneath him.
Irreversible (2002, Fr.)
Gaspar Noe's controversial French film, told in reverse chronological order, was disturbing to many audiences, for its frank sex scene, an unbroken anal rape sequence, and for its unflinching violence.
Deep within a gay S&M club named The Rectum, a scene of death was filmed with a hand-held camera.
It was a raw, violent, and animalistic revenge-murder, in retribution for a 9-minute long rape and brutal beating of Marcus' (Vincent Cassel) beautiful girlfriend Alexandra (or "Alex") (Monica Bellucci).
Pierre (Albert Dupontel) rescued his friend Marcus from assault (although his arm was broken) by a suspected rapist known as Le Tenia ("The Tapeworm") (Jo Prestia).
The man's head was repeatedly smashed with dull, crunching blows from a fire extinguisher until it became a bloody pulp and the individual expired.
However, it appeared that the rapist was a witness to the beating, while an innocent man was the grisly victim of the bludgeoning assault.
Ken Park (2002)
Director Larry Clark's controversial non-linear drama opened with the suicidal death of red-haired, freckled teen skateboarder Ken Park (Adam Chubbuck) in a Visalia, California park, when he pulled out a gun from his pack and blew his brains out. [The motivation for killing himself was revealed later - he had gotten his girlfriend pregnant.]
A controversially-graphic scene of auto-erotic self-asphyxiation was one of the film's more shocking scenes.
Death-obsessed, masturbation-addicted, sociopathic, parent-less teenager Tate (James Ransone) had wished to increase his sexual arousal.
He wore a T-shirt saying "Keep it Simple" as he choked himself with a long green dressing gown belt tied to a doorknob while he pleasured himself (to a money-shot climax) watching Anna Kournikova play tennis.
Earlier in the film, he had killed his doting, smothering grandparents that he was living with, explaining:
The Ring (2002)
Director Gore Verbinski's psychological horror film was a remake of the original, highly-effective Japanese film, Ringu (1998, Jp.) by Hideo Nakata.
One of the filmdom's scariest and most chilling death scenes was set in the apartment of Noah Clay (Martin Henderson), the ex-boyfriend of investigative reporter/journalist Rachel Keller (Naomi Watts). The TV turned on by itself behind him. He approached with apprehension, and knelt in front of the screen. The television projected an image of a well in the woods. He watched in horror as long, black-haired, decaying Samara (Daveigh Chase) emerged out of the watery well grave in the woods and walked toward the screen. Rachel frantically was calling Noah at the same time (and racing to him in her car), but he was transfixed by the image and didn't answer.
[What he was viewing was the frightening and haunting image of the undead, partially-decomposed Samara (Daveigh Chase) who had been murdered. The sleeping-gowned girl had been partially suffocated with a black plastic bag and then dropped by her adoptive parents into a water well on the horse farm. The 'ring' was the last thing that Samara saw deep down in the well - it was a corona of daylight as Anna Morgan placed a stone cover-lid on top of the well.]
Noah jumped back as Samara literally crawled directly out of the TV set, leaving wet marks on the floor. He fell backwards, cascading a large multi-shelved bookcase onto the floor, and spraying broken glass. He struggled to crawl away, on top of the shards of sharp glass. When she looked up and confronted him with her lethal stare, he died of fright - thus fulfilling the 7-day curse of the videotape. Rachel found him dead in a chair in his apartment - and shrieked at the sight (off-screen).
Shark Attack 3: Megalodon (2002)
Director David Worth's cheaply-made, notoriously-bad action horror film, a Jaws rip-off film, was about a colossal, menacing shark - supposedly the prehistoric extinct ancestor to the Great White shark. Its tagline was: "The Terror Has Surfaced."
There were a series of unbelievably funny death scenes, in which a regular-sized shark was blown up to gigantic proportions (to create an angry Mother shark), and then victims falling into its jaws were superimposed onto it:
Director Sam Raimi's big-budget, live-action super-hero film was derived from the Stan Lee comic book story of the same name.
There was a final one-on-one match up between the super-villain Green Goblin (Willem Dafoe) and Spider-Man (Tobey Maguire) in an abandoned, crumbling building.
The schizophrenic, megalomaniacal Jekyll-Hyde villain was unmasked as weapons-manufacturing scientist Norman Virgil Osborn after he realized that he had enraged the superhero by threatening to kill the love of his life Mary Jane (Kirsten Dunst), and that he was doomed to lose.
Acting benevolently, he attempted to convince Spider-Man of his fatherly intentions and begged for forgiveness, claiming that he wasn't responsible for the deaths that the Green Goblin had caused:
All the while as he spoke, however, the double-crossing Green Goblin was programming his Goblin Glider to strike the back of Spider-Man with its razor-sharp blades or spikes. As the glider was poised to strike, he said: "Godspeed, Spider-Man."
However, with quick reflexes, Spider-Man backward-somersaulted out of the way, and the Glider struck and impaled the Green Goblin through his mid-section against a brick wall.
The Green Goblin's final words as he collapsed dead were to not reveal his identity to his son Harry (James Franco): "Don't tell Harry."
The tenth film in the lucrative, lengthy series-franchise was also the last film featuring the entire original Next Generation crew of the USS Enterprise. The film's plot told of an uprising led by Romulan political leader, Shinzon, with sinister plans to conquer the Federation and destroy Earth.
During the film's exciting conclusion, there was a fierce battle between:
The Reman was dying of genetic degeneration and could only be restored with a complete blood transfusion from Picard ("the only donor with compatible DNA").
The two met face to face during a deadly countdown to thalaron radiation deployment - Shinzon's weapon. Picard learned that he had a surprising relationship to Shinzon - Shinzon had been created from Picard's DNA.
The cloned leader died when impaled by a spear-shaped piece of metal piping - he pulled himself along the length of the spear lodged in his torso until he was inches from Picard's face.
He then grabbed Picard's neck and spoke his final words before collapsing onto Picard's chest:

A Report on State Action to Promote Nutrition, Increase Physical Activity and Prevent Obesity
The Fall 2008 Balance report summarizes state-level action taken by decision-makers and advocates from June to October 2008 to address the national childhood obesity epidemic.
The first chapter of the report provides an overview of legislative policy and planning actions that occurred during the summer and fall-the creation of commissions or task forces and the examination of health insurance coverage and benefits. Subsequent chapters cover community access to nutritious foods, action by the food and beverage industry, efforts to improve community design and promote active living, children's access to healthy foods, and physical activity among students.
Although there was legislative action on a wide range of topics during this period, few bills were passed. In fact, from January to October 2008 only 34 of the 320 childhood obesity-related bills introduced at the state level were enacted, and only 15 of the 39 state legislatures that introduced or acted on legislation passed measures. More information on the state level action during the summer and fall of 2008 can be found in the executive summary and full Balance Report for Fall 2008.

In dealing with impending death, Maxine Lauzon has learned quite a bit about life.
Only 17, Maxine has been a volunteer for Hospice of the Valley for more than year.
"I learned what volunteering is all about," she said. "It's touching someone, brightening their day. It's helped me as much as it's helped them. The feeling you see on their face is the best ever."
A senior at Temecula Preparatory School, Maxine had a special friendship with one patient, Doris, who was almost 95. "She was the sweetest person in the world, and loved to read political thrillers. I visited her for an hour every Saturday from June to last December. She just died of old age."
Hospice is just one area where Maxine has touched lives. At school, she formed an after-classes tutoring club. "When kids are having trouble with a subject, it's sometimes easier to learn from a fellow student. It's good to know you can help, and to see the light bulb going off in their head when they understand something."
Maxine, who is projected to be the school valedictorian in the spring, is a member of the National Honor Society and the Decathlon Club, which competes with other schools and focuses on a particular subject. This year, it's Russia. So far, she's learned about the space race and the hard life of its citizens. "It was very sad reading about the people having to live under Lenin and then Stalin."
For her achievements in and out of the classroom, Maxine was named a recent Student of the Month by the Temecula Valley Chamber of Commerce.
Maxine spent part of last week in Iowa with her father, Rob, a retail business solutions manager for Oakley, which manufactures sunglasses and apparel. They visited Simpson College in Indianola, one of her top choices after graduation and a school with only 1,400 full-time students. "I'm used to small schools, and I prefer them because I get to know all my teachers," she said.
The Lauzons — Ron and his wife, Diana, who works at the business services department for the Romoland School District, moved the family from Montreal to Southern California when Maxine was 5. She has twin siblings, Tristan and Kylie, now 14.
"When we moved here, Maxine spoke more French than English," Diana said. Maxine hopes to use her background in French to major in that that language and in marketing, and she hopes to work for an international company.
Meanwhile, she continues her search for a college. Beyond Simpson College, she's looking at schools in Oregon, Pennsylvania, Montana and Wyoming. None has the climate of Southern California, but Maxine isn't deterred. "I like cold weather, and I can always add more blankets."

Cameron, Salmond: Prep Your Resignation Speeches
Brian Monteith, The Scotsman
The Associated Press
The initiative for Cameron or Salmond to go will not come from hothead opponents demanding blood, but from party critics within the Conservatives or SNP, for either leader would be culpable in their judgments, decisions and actions. Such a process is about bringing responsibility and accountability back to our politicians – actions should have consequences and either leader should act honourably and make way for a new figure that can restore confidence in their respective parties.
TAGGED: Alex Salmond, Scotland, David Cameron, UK
