Forth Valley Stronger Together
The Learning Disability Alliance has now published its 2013 Annual Review. You can download a copy here. This will give you full information on the activities and work of the organisation over the last year.
On Friday 11th October, Frankie Miller, Spike from the Quireboys and the Scotland Rugby Squad launched their new charity single, A Bottle Of Whisky for the 2013 Rugby International season. Two of our members, Enable Glasgow and Equal Say will benefit from the returns. Its a fantastic single and we recommend you treat yourself to a copy today. It is available in the Itunes music store now.
The launch was good fun and it was a chance to catch up with Annette and Frankie. Annette has been a friend of the Learning Disability Alliance for a while as she helps to organise an alternative day service for people with learning disabilities in London. As she told us, they are having similar problems in getting funding and dodging the cuts.
We are all hoping the single as well as raising much needed funds, can help to raise the profile of people with learning disabilities throughout Scotland.
We are carrying out a survey on how well the Learning Disability Alliance Scotland has done over the last year. It is a short set of 7 questions linked to our Mission Statement. Please take a few minutes to complete the questions by the 18th of October. We value your feedback and it will help us work better over the next year.

Session 4
New Learning Disabilities Strategy
The Presiding Officer (Tricia Marwick): The next item of business is a debate on motion S4M-07787, in the name of Michael Matheson, on the new learning disabilities strategy, "The keys to life".
I point out to members that we have a fair bit of time in hand, so the Presiding Officers will be generous.
The Minister for Public Health (Michael Matheson): The new learning disabilities strategy, "The keys to life: Improving quality of life for people with learning disabilities", was published in June of this year. It is the second national learning disabilities strategy for Scotland, and we are the first part of the United Kingdom to produce a second strategy of that nature.
The Scottish Government's new strategy the Keys To Life was debate in the Scottish Parliament on Tuesday 24th September. This was a long debate from 2.30 to 5.00. This meant that lots of MSPs got to speak and each got time to develop their points.
Summary: The Scottish Government was proud of its new strategy and felt that it would be an opportunity to improve things for people with learning disabilities. They knew there is still a lot of work to be done but it is a plan to build on the progress that has been achieved so far.
No one who spoke was opposed to the new strategy. Some concerns were raised – would local authorities be able to deliver, what about the charges that people had to pay, what about the cuts in college places, concern about the disproportionate effect that the cuts had on people with learning disabilities, the failure to deliver personal plans to everyone and even the lack of use of modern apprenticeships to support people into work.
Many of the MSPs spoke from a personal experience of people with learning disabilities and their families, others had worked with people with learning disabilities in a professional capacity before becoming an MSP and others knew people in their communities. This shows a real connection between our politicians and people with learning disabilities. There may be some differences in how to take things forward but we can say there is no "indifference" amongst this group of MSPs.
Many of the issues that the Learning Disability Alliance Scotland have been concerned about were raised and a number of MSPs were able to use our briefing in the debate.

They call them 'Trojans' because A long time ago, the Greeks used something called a 'Trojan Horse', A horst made of wood pretending they surrendered and it was a gift. They're enemies opened the gate and let the Greeks bring it in, and late at night, when they were sleeping, Greek soilders were inside of the Trojan Horse, so they got out, in did their attacking....
So, a trojan pretends to be another application, but it's not...
Here are some things I've seen be able to do:
� Disable the firewall
� Open any ports
� Create an account called "Hacker" unseeable in the login screen
� Steal your password hash and e-mail it to the attacker [but you won't see it being e-mailed unless you saw it in the Force Quit window]
� all of the above...
So, be careful with what you download, and if you are on a user account and it asks for the admin username and password...
1. You must know EXACTLY what it is and what it does
2. Ask a freind if he's used it to make sure...
3. Use an Anti-Virus Scanner to check the file
4. Check with your System Administrator, since he/she will be typing in the password anyway...
^Hope this helped!

I want my daughters hair!!

She's adorable.
My hair naturally holds a curl that well too. So idk. I do have a friend who mouses her hair, dries it, hairsprays it, then curls each section, and sprays it while on the iron. This achieves a cowardly lion look.
I mostly just wanted to say your little girl is super cute.

I want my son's curly blonde hair and my other son's rock hard abs. Life isn't fair.

Haha I just noticed in the background of the first picture it looks like my mom is getting beat on by my 2 year old. Maybe I should complain about not having his karate skills since "life isn't fair."
Posted 01/21/2013
Thank you. She absolutely loves having her hair done. I'm going to go to the supply store and start trying out new products. I don't want a glued to my head curl look. I like how natural hers is and movable.

JEALOUS! She has beautiful hair!
Some people need a high-five.

Her hair isn't curled in that pic?? Holy cow. I'm jealous. My Roseanne Roseannadanna hair is jealous.

Oh no she had it curled with the iron on low. I'm just wishing mine would stay like that for
12plus hours with no spray or anything in it. It's like her curls won't come out until washed.

The proposal outlines plans to spend some $99 million next fiscal year on substance abuse prevention, youth marijuana use prevention and other priorities. The money would come from a statewide 12.9 percent sales tax on recreational pot. Colorado's total pot sales next fiscal year were estimated to be about $610 million.
Retail sales began Jan. 1 in Colorado. Sales have been strong, though exact figures for January sales won't be made public until early next month.
The Cannabist
The governor predicted sales and excise taxes next fiscal year would produce some $98 million, well above a $70 million annual estimate given to voters when they approved the pot taxes last year. The governor also includes taxes from medical pot, which are subject only to the statewide 2.9 percent sales tax.
Washington state budget forecasters released a projection Wednesday for that state, where retail sales don't begin for a few months.
Economic forecasters in Olympia predicted that the state's new legal recreational marijuana market will bring nearly $190 million to state coffers over four years starting in mid-2015. Washington state sets budgets biennially.
In Colorado, Hickenlooper's proposal listed six priorities for spending the pot sales taxes.
The spending plan included $45.5 million for youth use prevention, $40.4 million for substance abuse treatment and $12.4 million for public health.
"We view our top priority as creating an environment where negative impacts on children from marijuana legalization are avoided completely," Hickenlooper wrote in a letter to legislative budget writers, which must approve the plan.
The governor also proposed a $5.8 million, three-year "statewide media campaign on marijuana use," presumably highlighting the drug's health risks.
Also, Hickenlooper has proposed spending $7 million for an additional 105 beds in residential treatment centers for substance abuse disorders.
"This package represents a strong yet cautious first step" for regulating pot, the governor wrote. He told lawmakers he'd be back with a more complete spending prediction later this year.
The Colorado pot tax plan doesn't include an additional 15 percent pot excise tax, of which $40 million a year already is designated for school construction. The governor projected the full $40 million to be reached next year.
The initial tax projections are rosier than those given to voters in 2012, when state fiscal projections on the marijuana-legalization amendment would produce $39.5 million in sales taxes next fiscal year, which begins in July.
The rosier projections come from updated data about how many retail stores Colorado has (163 as of Feb. 18) and how much customers are paying for pot. There's no standardized sales price, but recreational pot generally is going for much more than the $202 an ounce forecasters guessed last year.
Mason Tvert, a legalization activist who ran Colorado's 2012 campaign, said other states are watching closely to see what legal weed can produce in tax revenue.
"Voters and state lawmakers around the country are watching how this system unfolds in Colorado, and the prospect of generating significant revenue while eliminating the underground marijuana market is increasingly appealing," said Tvert, who now works for the Marijuana Policy Project.
Meanwhile, The Denver Post reported Wednesday that banks holding commercial loans on properties that lease to Colorado marijuana businesses say they don't plan to refinance those loans when they come due. Bankers say property used as collateral for those loans theoretically is subject to federal drug-seizure laws, which makes the loans a risk.
Colorado's two largest banks, Wells Fargo Bank and FirstBank, say they won't offer new loans to landowners with preexisting leases with pot businesses. And Wells Fargo and Vectra Bank have told commercial loan clients they either have to evict marijuana businesses or seek refinancing elsewhere.
"Our policy of not banking marijuana-related businesses and not lending on commercial properties leased by marijuana-related businesses is based on applicable federal laws," Wells Fargo spokeswoman Cristie Drumm told the Post.
Associated Press writer Rachel La Corte in Olympia, Wash., contributed to this report.

San Diego If your bucket list includes seeing the world's largest animal, it may be time to check the box.
Adventure Rib Rides, a local ocean tour company, reported its first blue whale sightings of the year off the San Diego coast over the holiday weekend, launching the summer viewing season. Capt. Ken Manzoni found four blues about four miles offshore of Point Loma on Saturday — a sign that this summer will be another good one for whale fans and tour organizers alike.
The company said 2011 was a banner year for blues because San Diego hosted five pods of the whales during the summer and fall. In all, Manzoni figures about 50 blues made San Diego their summer home last year, and a few thousand pass through local waters on their way elsewhere.
Southern California has become a top spot to see blue whales. They are the largest creatures known to have lived on Earth; they can grow to more than 300,000 pounds and more than 100 feet long.
At the right times, blues can be seen regularly from Santa Barbara south. The San Diego Natural History Museum starts offering blue whale sightseeing cruises on June 17.
Of course, there's no guarantee that blue whales will show up on any given day, but tour operators said fin whales, minke whales and dolphins are regularly spotted.
Federal fisheries officials believe the eastern north Pacific stock winters off Mexico, Central America and elsewhere. The animals feed during summer off the West Coast and the Gulf of Alaska.
NOAA said the population off the California coast has grown over the past two decades, though it's hard to know exactly why. "The magnitude of this apparent increase is too large to be accounted for by population growth alone, and therefore it is assumed that a shift in distribution has occurred," said the agency's website.

Many minor injuries can be handled at home. However, there are times when a trip to the hospital emergency department is needed. In general, take your child to an emergency room after an injury anytime you think the problem may need urgent attention, including if your child has:
Trouble breathing or shortness of breath
Bloody sputum (coughing up blood)
Blue or purple color to lips, skin, or nail beds
Chest or stomach pain or pressure
Severe or persistent vomiting or diarrhea
Sudden dizziness, weakness, or change in vision
Change in mental status (such as loss of consciousness, confusion, or trouble waking)
Animal, snake, or human bites
Severe pain or loss of motion or sensation anywhere in the body
Severe bleeding or bleeding that does not stop with direct pressure
Severe burns or burns of the face
Broken bones
Puncture wounds
Head, spinal cord, or eye injuries
Signs of an allergic reaction such as hives, swelling of the face, lips, eyes, or tongue, fainting, or with trouble breathing, swallowing, or wheezing
This is a partial list. There are other problems that may require emergency care. Contact your child's doctor for more information.

Skip to comments."Hand of God" -Vanity Prayer request for FReeper
Posted on 04/15/2012 4:05:41 PM PDT by stockpirate
This morniing Freeper Stockpirate had a massive heart attack, first one! God was with me the whole time.
There was a mircle during this that I wouldlike to share.
My son-in-law was outside on a ladder working on the house, meanwhile I was in the basement having my very own heart attack. No one could here me yelling for help, I asked God for help then got onmy cellphone and started calling our various cell phones in the house.
My oldest granddaughter ansewered her's I asked her to tell her mom to come to the basement fast....she told me her dad had fallen off the ladder a couple of minutes ago and mom was calling an ambulance.......
As it turned out he was okay but the ambulance took me to the hospital......
I was 100% block in one artery and 90% inn the other....
My son-in-law said it felt like someone had kicked the ladder out at the bottom, which would been been about the time I asked God to help...
SOrry if my spelling is bad, I am in CCU amnd wanted to share....
PS please pray for me....if you find it in your heart to do so..
Cool story. Take care of yourself.
Praise the Lord for an angel kicking that ladder. I'll continue praying for your recovery.
So the ambulance was on its way even before you had contact with someone! There is a guardian angel there for sure!! Hope all goes well, and that you will be leading a new life soon. Keep us posted on your cell, will you? Prayers until all is healed!
What a happy ending! Prayers for you and your family for a complete restoration of health and in thanksgiving for His blessings to you, in getting you to the hospital ASAP, and your telling us all about it from ICU! This is the best news I have heard all day!
God bless you and yours.
You are in my prayers. Do EVERYTHING that they tell you to do :)
My Mom had a heart attack last December, and a Massive Heart Attack while they were trying to put a stent in.
Our Miracle was that she was "sent" back, and the fact that just 2 days before she had gotten home from North Carolina. I still get chills thinking about had it happened to her while she had been driving through Atlanta.
That was quite a story. Prayers for a speedy recovery. Rest and listen to what the doctors tell you to do.
Amazing!!! Thank you for sharing. Prayers for your recovery; seems like God has plans for you. :)
Amazing!!! Thank you for sharing. Prayers for your recovery; seems like God has plans for you. :)
Prayers sent for your healing, in Jesus' name!
Amazing story. Prayers for your quick recovery.
"You both might want to drop a thank you to your guardian angel"
I suppose the son-in-law has already apologized for the cuss words when the ladder fell?!
What an amazing story!
FReeping from the CCU! That's the kind of true grit needed to save the Republic!!
Praying here, glad you made it this far. Thanking God for your miracle.
God hears us when we pray I am convinced of it and I know you are convinced as well. May God be with you during your recovery.
Prayers for you that the doctors can deal with the blockage and get you back on your feet.
God bless you and your family.
Prayers for your health and healing.
AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME! Praise God!!!
Psalm 46:1
God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.
Coincidence - God's middle name. :o)
Prayers lifted....
You will find that in so many of my posts, I have said over and over, "I believe in miracles."
I never doubt G-d for an instant, even when everything seems beyond hope. YOU have just added one more reason for my faith and I am so grateful to G-d for this gift to you and your family.
G-d is not finished with you yet.
May G-d continue to bless you and set you on the path to a speedy recovery.
Thank you for posting this faith affirming and uplifting thread.
Prayers up!
Don't you just love it when God does stuff like that?
Prayers for a speedy and complete recovery.
Arrggghhh!!! Prayin' like a pirate for a full recovery to ye.
Prayers up, for your recovery, AND for thanks, that your SIL was ok, and that your prayer was answered!!
May God bless and continue to keep watch over you and yours, FRiend.
Wow! God truly does hear our prayers!!! Prayers sent for your recovery and prayers of thanks to God for His Mercy!
You're in my prayers.
Prayers up for your rapid and complete recovery.
Sometimes God has a strange sense of humor in how he answers prayers!
That is just amazing that the ambulance was there for you.
Prayers up. Please get some rest and follow the doctors orders.
Prayers up from Texas.
Hand of God, indeed. Prayers up for you.
Lord Jesus, please grant our friend Stockpirate a full recovery and bless his family.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, amen.
Your story brought tears to my eyes. Yes, it seemed you were watched over and had God's protection. Heal quickly! There is more work for you to do on this earth!
God bless. You are in our prayers.
God does hear us! Keeping you in our prayers for a full and speedy recovery. Jean & James St.Pete,FL
God Bless you. There are no coincidences!
Notre Père qui es aux cieux,
Que ton Nom soit sanctifié, que ton règne vienne,
Que ta volonté soit faite sur la terre comme au ciel.
Donne-nous aujourd'hui notre pain de ce jour.
Pardonne-nous nos offenses, comme nous pardonnons aussi à ceux qui nous ont offensés.
Et ne nous soumets pas à la tentation, mais délivre-nous du mal.
Car cest à Toi quappartiennent le règne, la puissance et la gloire,
pour les siècles des siècles. Amen
Je vous salue, Marie, pleine de grâces,
le Seigneur est avec vous, vous êtes bénie entre toutes les femmes,
et Jésus le fruit de vos entrailles est béni.
Sainte Marie, Mère de Dieu, priez pour nous pauvres pécheurs,
maintenant, et à l'heure de notre mort. Ainsi-soit-il.
Speaking of the Hand of God, I wrote the following haiku about 15 years ago. It is the same in French and English.
Nous sommes du soleil
Les visages de les enfants
Le main de Dieu.
We are of the sun
The faces of the children
God's hand in us all.
Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)
LonePalm, le Républicain du verre cassé (The Broken Glass Republican)
Prayers up!
It is quit obvious your work here on Earth is not done my FRiend. God needs you around for a while longer. Ptayers for your speedy recovery.
Thanx for the God news ping!
Praying for you stockpirate
Prayers for you and wishing you a rapid recovery.
Prayers up.
Prayers for both of you, as well as family.
Coincidence - God's middle name. :o)
I am so going to steal that!
Dear Friend,
Our Lord has work for you to do. He wants you well! Let us praise Him for His wonderful ways and the amazing healing He has provided for you. He was with you all the way and will not leave you or forsake you. Focus on health, healing, and wholeness and the love of Jesus that is so very real and fulfilling. Praying for you, friend.
As I've been telling one of my teenaged sons lately: Sometimes it seems as if there are no coincidences. (Ever see the movie "Signs"?)
I mean, what are the chances those two events would've happened at the same time coincidentally, bringing you an ambulance at just the right time? Thanks for sharing your story! Get well soon.

Another cool week can be expected across eastern North Carolina but a major shift in the weather pattern will begin next week. Afternoon highs will top out in the upper 50s through Friday. A storm system will bring a bout of rain by Thursday night and Friday. Once that system exits the area, a major warm-up will spread into eastern Carolina. Temperatures will be close to 70° by Sunday and many locations will be well into the 70s or lower 80s by the middle of next week. Dry conditions will resume after the rain ends late Friday. It finally looks like "real" spring will arrive.

No current Talk conversations about this book.
It is the story of a missionary family's trek to the Congo, told through the eyes of the four daughters and their mother. The father is a misguided preacher who is trying to escape past demons by force-feeding Christ to a culture that he has neither researched nor desires to understand (the name of the book is a reference to his misuse of the native language -- so instead of calling the Bible something holy, he's referring to it as a poisonous tree).
I loved how Kingsolver shows the world view of an entire family who is experiencing the same basic situations in the Congo, but each member deals with these things very differently.
I loved this book. Everything about it!
Journal Entry 4 by CrazyDutchwoman from Heemstede, Noord-Holland Netherlands on Sunday, October 24, 2004
Well I am finally reading the book. I have read about 3 chapters so far.
Lately I prefer reading true crime again so that's why it took me so long.
I,ll update this journal while reading.
Update October 27 2004
Still reading. Right now I am at page 269 of 616 pages.
I can't say it is going to be one of the best books I have read this year, but the story is to interesting to put down. I really want to know what will happen to the girls and the mother. I dislike the selfish father very much.
So far I am enjoying the book.
Update October 28 2004
I have read this book very fast. I really liked the middle part of the book, could not stop reading last night.
This morning I read the last part and had to shed a tear.
I thought the book to be very interesting and sometimes heartbreaking.
The negative thing was that it got sometimes boring, but never for long.
thanks for sharing
A very gripping story I couldn't tear myself away from. A great read!
A very different book from her previous works. Here she mines her own childhood for material. A Baptist missionary takes his family (including a disabled child) to the Congo with some predictable (and some NOT so predictable) results. A VERY good book and great book club discussion.
Update: 10June2001 Read again for a second book club
We discussed family dynamics, representations of the "ideal" African, choicse made in desperation
Kingsolver once wrote that ""The point [of portraying other cultures] is not to emulate other lives, or usurp their wardrobes. The point is to find sense.'' Her effort to make sense of the Congo's tragic struggle for independence is fully realized, richly embroidered, triumphant.
A writer who casts a preacher as a fool and a villain had best not be preachy. Kingsolver manages not to be, in part because she is a gifted magician of words--her sleight-of-phrase easily distracting a reader who might be on the point of rebellion. Her novel is both powerful and quite simple. It is also angrier and more direct than her earlier books.
The Congo permeates ''The Poisonwood Bible,'' and yet this is a novel that is just as much about America, a portrait, in absentia, of the nation that sent the Prices to save the souls of a people for whom it felt only contempt, people who already, in the words of a more experienced missionary, ''have a world of God's grace in their lives, along with a dose of hardship that can kill a person entirely.''
Although ''The Poisonwood Bible'' takes place in the former Belgian Congo and begins in 1959 and ends in the 1990's, Barbara Kingsolver's powerful new book is actually an old-fashioned 19th-century novel, a Hawthornian tale of sin and redemption and the ''dark necessity'' of history.

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0060786507, Paperback)Oprah Book Club® Selection, June 2000: As any reader of The Mosquito Coast knows, men who drag their families to far-off climes in pursuit of an Idea seldom come to any good, while those familiar with At Play in the Fields of the Lord or Kalimantaan understand that the minute a missionary sets foot on the fictional stage, all hell is about to break loose. So when Barbara Kingsolver sends missionary Nathan Price along with his wife and four daughters off to Africa in The Poisonwood Bible, you can be sure that salvation is the one thing they're not likely to find. The year is 1959 and the place is the Belgian Congo. Nathan, a Baptist preacher, has come to spread the Word in a remote village reachable only by airplane. To say that he and his family are woefully unprepared would be an understatement: "We came from Bethlehem, Georgia, bearing Betty Crocker cake mixes into the jungle," says Leah, one of Nathan's daughters. But of course it isn't long before they discover that the tremendous humidity has rendered the mixes unusable, their clothes are unsuitable, and they've arrived in the middle of political upheaval as the Congolese seek to wrest independence from Belgium. In addition to poisonous snakes, dangerous animals, and the hostility of the villagers to Nathan's fiery take-no-prisoners brand of Christianity, there are also rebels in the jungle and the threat of war in the air. Could things get any worse?
In fact they can and they do. The first part of The Poisonwood Bible revolves around Nathan's intransigent, bullying personality and his effect on both his family and the village they have come to. As political instability grows in the Congo, so does the local witch doctor's animus toward the Prices, and both seem to converge with tragic consequences about halfway through the novel. From that point on, the family is dispersed and the novel follows each member's fortune across a span of more than 30 years.
The Poisonwood Bible is arguably Barbara Kingsolver's most ambitious work, and it reveals both her great strengths and her weaknesses. As Nathan Price's wife and daughters tell their stories in alternating chapters, Kingsolver does a good job of differentiating the voices. But at times they can grate--teenage Rachel's tendency towards precious malapropisms is particularly annoying (students practice their "French congregations"; Nathan's refusal to take his family home is a "tapestry of justice"). More problematic is Kingsolver's tendency to wear her politics on her sleeve; this is particularly evident in the second half of the novel, in which she uses her characters as mouthpieces to explicate the complicated and tragic history of the Belgian Congo.
Despite these weaknesses, Kingsolver's fully realized, three-dimensional characters make The Poisonwood Bible compelling, especially in the first half, when Nathan Price is still at the center of the action. And in her treatment of Africa and the Africans she is at her best, exhibiting the acute perception, moral engagement, and lyrical prose that have made her previous novels so successful. --Alix Wilber

Property Conveyancing lawyers or solicitors
Mr Ang Keng Lam, Joint Managing Director of Kerry Properties Limited, said: This is Kerry Properties Limited's first water resources project in China and we are confident that it will provide steady long term recurring earnings for the group in the future which is consistent with Kerry Properties' policy of continuing to build up its recurrent income base. We will continue to look for new areas for the group to expand capitalising on our existing strengths wherever possible.
The joint venture company will construct a dam to supply water to the Beitai Steel Mill – the second largest and one of the most profitable enterprises in Benxi city, and the surrounding residential area. The construction of pipelines is one of the expansion areas currently under discussion.
Upon completion in five years time, the project should have a capacity of storing 74 million cubic metres of water and supplying over 60 million cubic metres of water and 2.7 million kilowatt hours of electricity per annum.
It was reported from government sources that the Town Planning Board has approved the revised master layout plans proposed by Kerry Properties Limited (0683) for its site in Sham Tseng. In the newly approved scheme, the site will be developed into three 51/53-storey residential towers, instead of the original four 35 storey towers erected upon a 6-storey earmark podium, giving a total GFA of approximately 500,000 sq. ft.
Under the newly approved scheme, all 560 units will have full sea views. The clubhouse area will be increased from 14,000 sq. ft. to 25,000 sq. ft. and there will be more open spaces with substantial landscaping on the site. The Conveyacing company provides property Conveyancing lawyers and Conveyancing solicitors for your all types of real estate properties like residential , commercials or industrials. NKU (18-7 overall) enters this weekend having won 11 consecutive matches and is tied with Lewis University for first place in the GLVC standings with a 9-2 record. The new development has 560 resident parking spaces and 56 visitor carparks built in an annex building linked up with the clubhouse. The recreational facilities will include a swimming pool, tennis courts and children's play area.
The site was handed over to Kerry Properties in July 1996. At present, demolition work is in progress and foundation works are scheduled to commence in June of this year. The whole development is expected to be completed in 1999, Kerry Properties acquired the site (originally occupied by Union Carbide) in December 1994. Total development cost for the site is estimated to be approximately HK$5,000 per sq. ft.

Awesome Suit!
Almost a perfect all-around, long distance tri-suit, somewhat depends on your "racing style" though. The seams are way more comfortable than the Forza Riviera, but the shoulder covering is wider and give slightly less mobility when arms reach out during the catch phase of a stroke (might get better as the suit gets broken in with a few more races). The 7mm Chamois is also a much bigger advantage than a lot of other trisuits. Though the chamois isn't quite as good as the 2XU Elite padding, it's a close second. De Soto definitely makes the best lower-body tri-suits out there, just wish they'd make one more line of tri-suits that has a great chamois and great upper-body mobility instead of having the buyer pick between the two.

Get an alert when we add new styles of DeSoto! Simply sign up and we'll notify you.
The founders of DeSoto are Emilio De Soto and Dan Neyenhuis. Emilio De Soto is a triathlete who is racing in his 27th consecutive season of triathlon competition. He is also fully immersed in his athletic lifestyle as a fitness trainer and coach. Dan Neyenhuis is an age-grouper triathlete who has been helicopter skiing for 20 years. Together, they created a company that designs cutting edge triathlon gear for triathletes, by triathletes.
DeSoto gear is designed to enhance performance in each leg of the race. The founders created the first mesh running cap, zippered tri tops, pocketed tri shorts, transition packs, tri suits, and tri shorts with discreet pads for cycling.
One of their other achievements was creating the DeSoto T1 triathlon wetsuit that is two pieces instead of one. The DeSoto T1 triathlon wetsuit was designed to make a better fit for triathletes, and each year, more DeSoto tri tops and DeSoto tri shorts are being added to the line. DeSoto is still the only company in the world that makes a two-piece triathlon wetsuit.

Israel's former foreign minister Avigdor Lieberman was in court on Thursday as his trial on charges of fraud and breach of trust got under way in Jerusalem.
At a first hearing on February 17, Lieberman pleaded not guilty in a trial which will decide the one-time nightclub bouncer's political future.
Lieberman is suspected of trying to secure an ambassadorial posting for Israeli diplomat Zeev Ben Aryeh who provided him with confidential information about a police investigation into his affairs.
The incident allegedly took place in 2008 when Lieberman was serving only as an MP.
The case is being heard at the Jerusalem Magistrate's Court by a panel of three judges.
Lieberman and Ben Aryeh shook hands outside the building.
"This is not a difficult day for me, I've come to tell the truth -- and that's what I will do," Ben Aryeh told army radio before entering the court.
An outspoken hardliner who has been investigated by police several times since 1996, Lieberman denies the charges, saying he is eager to vindicate himself in court.
According to the indictment, Lieberman was allegedly tipped off by Ben Aryeh that police had contacted their counterparts in Belarus for help with an inquiry into his affairs.
He is suspected of then seeking to reward Ben Aryeh with a posting to Latvia.
According to Walla news website, Ben Aryeh told the judges he "couldn't remember" asking help from Lieberman to receive that appointment.
He further said he met Lieberman in Belarus and told him about the investigation because "I am a big supporter of Lieberman and respect him very much."
Earlier this week, Israeli media published protocols of Lieberman's investigation, in which the former foreign minister had referred to Ben Aryeh as an "idiot."
When Attorney General Yehuda Weinstein announced he was pressing charges over the affair, Lieberman immediately resigned his cabinet post, although he retains his status as an MP and head of the hardline Yisrael Beitenu party.
He has expressed confidence he will be cleared on all charges and return to the foreign ministry.
Among the witnesses due to appear is Lieberman's former deputy Danny Ayalon, who headed the ministry's appointments committee at the time.
Lieberman allegedly failed to tell him that Ben Aryeh had informed him about the police probe.
Ayalon, who used to be close to Lieberman, was ousted by him from their Yisrael Beitenu party ahead of the recent elections. Lieberman never explained the move.
Lieberman's main concern will be to avoid a conviction including both a finding of "moral turpitude" and a prison sentence, which would bar him from serving as a minister for seven years.
Since Lieberman's resignation, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has himself served as interim foreign minister but he is reportedly seeking to reinstate his ally once the legal proceedings are over.

Insurgency History, Terrorist Networks
Byline: Joshua Sinai, SPECIAL TO THE WASHINGTON TIMES
As terrorist groups, such as al Qaeda and its affiliates, continue to evolve worldwide,
new solutions are required to defeat these growing threats. These issues are addressed by the two books under review.
In Learning to Eat Soup with a Knife: Counterinsurgency Lessons from Malaya and Vietnam (The University of Chicago, $17, 282 pages), Lt. Col. John Nagl draws on T.E. Lawrence's (also known as Lawrence of Arabia) aphorism that "Making war upon insurgents is messy and slow, like eating soup with a knife." To examine this thesis, the author draws on the counterinsurgency campaigns conducted by the British in the Malayan Emergency from 1948 to 1960 and the United States in the Vietnam War from 1950 to 1975.
What Lt. Col. Nagl finds is that a flexible and adaptable military organizational culture that is able to integrate all elements of national power is the key variable which explains how the British army successfully won against the insurgents in Malaya and why the American army failed to do so in Vietnam.
This is an important lesson with contemporary relevance. According to Lt. Col. Nagl, militaries need to become "learning organizations" that utilize innovative ideas to change from using conventional tactics against an "unconventional" guerrilla or terrorist enemy, which is the challenge currently facing the United States and its coalition allies in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere where the war on terrorism is being fought.
Lt. Col. Nagl is well positioned to examine these issues due to his position as Military Assistant to the Deputy Secretary of Defense and as a veteran of the 1991 Operation Desert Storm and the current conflict in Iraq.
Lt. Col. Nagl's largely historical study is especially relevant today because it suggests how to encourage such spirit of innovation. In Iraq, for example, the task for a "conventional" military is hugely complicated because to achieve security by destroying the insurgent enemy it is difficult to identify one's adversary because often it is part of the local tribal population and is able to hide in plain sight.
Thus, he writes, "'Link diagrams' depicting who talked with whom [becomes] a daily chore for a small intelligence staff more used to analyzing the ranges of enemy artillery systems." Therefore, militaries need to develop cultural awareness and long term relationships of trust with the local population in order to foster the development of indigenous forces and local governmental institutions which are necessary to eventually take over once the country becomes safe and secure. As he points out, "the majority of the Iraqi population prefers the American vision of a democratic and free Iraq to the Salafist version of Iraq as Islamic theocracy. …

Making a difference: the experiences of poverty
The experiences of life when you are young and reliant on your parents and friends to guide and support you are life shaping. But what about if you're growing up in a home where there are stresses: money's tight, perhaps many people are unemployed, and your home is in a suburb where to go outside is intimidating.
Researchers from the University of New South Wales have just released the report from an intensive qualitative study of how young people experience economic adversity.
Ninety-six young people were interviewed about their idea of home, of their neighbourhood and their school.

A very late comment. I work in a very poor extremely stigmatised suburb and I am at my wits end wondering what we can usefuly do. Thanks for this story which I got to rather late I will follow up the paper and hope for inspiration and yes money is needed. Great interviewer and interviewee.

Several P-I staffers confirm that Hearst's severance package was given a thumbs up yesterday by out-bound employees. None can be certain they're actually losing their jobs - the paper is for sale, with a wee chance there could be a buyer, but it is likely to continue as an e-paper; in the latter case, many jobs - particularly print-related editing and production - will disappear.
Those departing will get two weeks pay per year of service, with a minimum of four weeks' severance. Hearst will also pay three months for continued health benefits via COBRA.
And Crosscut.com publisher David Brewster has been added to Nick Licata's 2p.m. Wednesday City Hall panel on the P-I's future, which we wrote about yesterday. On Crosscut today, Bill Richards writes about one of Licata's topics, the "Peoria Plan." He wonders if the P-I really could become a "low-profit" community-owned paper.
The biggest drawback is time: An organization would have to take root quickly, and legislation likely would be needed. Meanwhile, Hearst's March sale deadline hangs in the air - a window the corporation perhaps purposely made too small for anyone to crawl through. Who's advising these guys? Clay Bennett?

Geethar - SharjahPosted on 02 / 22 / 2010
Probably one of the pioneer to think of starting a Vegetarian restaurant in Sharjah close to five decades back. You get what is called real hospitality. Visit there to experience whats called pampering by one's uncles and grandfathers. The most important ingredient in Geethar's food is love and passion. You must see who all visited before you from the large number of photos displayed there. Raj Kapoor, Rajesh Khanna, Kapil Dev, Gavaskar to name a few.

You migrate the apps but if you migrate your data it will probably create a new account, so I'd advise copying the data by just dragging into ~/Documents. Firewire is your best bet, unless you have Thunderbolt.
Use SuperDuper or CarbonCopy Cloner to back up your entire system, this way you'll have a complete backup in case at a later date there's something you missed.
As far as selling, you need to erase the drive and install from the original install disk that Mac shipped with. This is required by license agreement. Also right now, it is tied to your Apple ID. Without your password the new owner won't be able to upgrade or purchase anything from the app store. With it he'll be able to run up quite a bill for you. You also risk leaving behind easily recoverable pesonal files, if you don't do a full security erase.

To prepare a computer for sale or donation, in addition to the steps mentioned in this support article, take these steps:
- If you set a firmware password, remove it by running Firmware Password Utility in Recovery mode.
- If you activated FileVault in OS X 10.7 or later, turn it off.
- If you use Boot Camp, the partition must be deleted
- If you created any other data partitions on the internal drive, remove them in Disk Utility.
- If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to zero out data. An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.
You can't legally or practically transfer any software downloaded from the Mac App Store to the new owner of the machine, even if it was free. That includes OS X, so if you paid for an upgrade OS X 10.7 or later, you must reinstallthe original OS, either from the installation media, if applicable, or by booting into Internet Recovery (option-command-R at the startup chime.)
The new owner will have to repurchase the software, if need be, under his or her Apple ID. If you ever updated the bundled iLife applications (Garage Band, iMovie, and iPhoto) through the App Store, you can't transfer them either.
Remove the machine from your list of registered products. If it's still covered by an AppleCare Protection Plan, transfer the coverage to the new owner by following the instructions in the AppleCare Terms and Conditions (under the heading "Transfer of Plan.")

Research Institution:
AbstractBreault Research Organization, Inc. (BRO) proposes in Phase I to advance the design of transmitted wavefront test equipment that can be used to characterize deep concave shapes including ogives. The approach is based, in part, on interferometric concepts that have been used for decades, but it employs a novel combination of techniques that enable quick and accurate measurements of the transmitted wavefront error. Key to this approach is an innovative optical layout that does not require a complex null optic. In fact, it is possible to construct the system using all spherical optics. In addition, the approach is insensitive to misalignment. The basic development task in this Phase I proposal is to determine the appropriate tradeoff between system complexity and speed and to determine tolerances of the key components. In addition, the concept will be demonstrated with representative hardware.BENEFITS: The advantages of conformal optics have been well documented by the Precision Conformal Optics Technology program. This Phase I proposal addresses the issue of testing of deep concave shapes including ogives. While manufacturing technology for ogive domes has been advanced, cost effective manufacturing requires complementary advances in testing. Upon the successful completion of a phase II program, BRO will have developed an economical, cost effective tool for testing deep concave shapes. In addition to testing domes, the concept and algorithms can be adapted to test conformal windows as well.

My son goes to Pedatric and Younf Adult Medicine in Lake Elmo... but they have offices in Hudson, Eagan, St. Paul and Maplewood as well. He sees Dr. Lidle but has seen a few others when sick and needed a same day appointment. I LOVE Dr. Lidle and the whole PYAM practice. They are so good with my baby. The doctor herself does all his shots (doesn't just hand him off to a nurse) They have Saturday hours. They work directly with Children's Hospital in St.Paul (one of their doctors in the practice is always on call there) and their St. Paul office is connected to it. They have a 24 hour phone line.... I literally called one time at 2 am and a nurse picked up, assessed my baby and then had Dr. Lidle call me about 30 minutes later to get a game plan for him (baby's eye was swollen shut) During regular business hours you can speak immediately with your doctor (keep in mind though that because of this, the doctor may have to step out for a minute during your appointment to speak with someone else on the phone....which is something they will do for you if you need to call) I seriously can't reccommend them enough....especially Dr. Lidle
We also use PYAM in Lake Elmo and/or Hudson, but have also used Maplewood and St. Paul. We see Dr. Delahunty. Pretty much the most amazing doctor I have ever met. She does have quite the wait to make an appt sometimes (we schedule our well checks 2+ months in advance) but that's only because the whole world wants to see her! If you make an appt to meet her, you will know exactly what I mean!
We have also seen Dr Lidle. Can't say anything bad about her, either!

This isn't close enough for you, but I love Fridley Children's and Teenager's Clinic. I've been taking my kids there since my 16 year old was born. We particularly like Dr. Pohl, but all of the pediatricians are great. They're very kind and friendly with children. I remember they'd do infant exams with the baby in my lap. They are open every day of the year including weekends and holidays - weekends and holidays they are open on a walk-in basis only, from 9 - 10:30 for sick kids. They have some early morning sick-kids walk-in hours, and they are open some evenings. If I call with a question for a pediatrician, I usually get a call back from a doctor within an hour or two. They have lab appointments for strep tests, too.

We use Becca Dyer Photography. She is almost 19 but goodness gracious she is amazing. Her email is firstname.lastname@example.com
She also babysits for us! We use her for our christmas, birthday, milestone photos! and for babysitting. I think she charges like 50 per session 25 dollars for a CD.
I do photography if you want to visit my website and facebook page for pictures. My prices are very competitive!

Just played singleplayer as you recommended and i have to admit my opinion f this game changed completely as it isn't frustrating at all :D
try going to steampowered.com and asking in the forums.

This is probably the most original mod i have ever seen!
portal gun beats the befg you can just make a hole and get rid if the projectile
hell anything fixes the nade spam im in for it!
worse game ever, Multiplayer is full of nade spamming worse than tfc, 1.5 updates aren't even on the main site. I payed 20 bucks for the game of the year edition (found it on a closing down store) and now i want it back!
