Even oil companies support a carbon tax

We need solid frameworks to guide public behaviour and attitudes towards the environment
It isn't Ed Miliband 'fighting his own brother for the leadership' that will put Britain at risk, it's ideological Tory cuts
The Conservatives have embarked on an all-out assault on the cheapest form of renewable energy there is, writes Oliver Hayes.
Poor value for money is not the only reason to lament the passing of Royal Mail into private hands.
New figures reveal that taxpayers lost billions of pounds in the privatisation of the Royal Mail.
Why do we insist that there is no difference between a profitable business that pays its own way, like the postal service, and one that depends mainly on taxation to fund it, like a school or a hospital?
There was an increase in the level of CO2 and greenhouse gas emissions in 2012, with UK net emissions of carbon dioxide 4.5 per cent higher than 2011, figures out today reveal.
Tory MP Michael Fallon has replaced John Hayes as energy minister.
Last week Fallon questioned whether "specific targets, for example on…climate change, are the best way of focusing our spending where it is most needed".
Business minister Michael Fallon MP this week blamed both the financial crisis and the deaths in Mid Staffordshire hospital on the "regulatory culture" of the Labour years. However deregulation risks babies and bathwater territory. What we need is better and more effective regulatory systems so that failures cannot be ignored again and stakeholders are protected.
The lack of any coherent manufacturing and industrial strategy from the current government is proving to be a disaster for the UK economy, writes Tony Burke.

ClassicsOnline Home » CIMAROSA, D.: Keyboard Sonatas, Vol. 2 (Sangiorgio) - R. 19-35 > Review List
Domenico Cimarosa was the most famous and popular Italian opera composer of the second half of the 18th Century. In the course of a brilliantly successful career he composed more than 65 operas as well as a significant number of other works. Nothing is known about the origins of the keyboard sonatas although from their style and structure they appear to date from relatively early in his career. These attractive, small-scale works were probably intended for study purposes or for domestic performance. The crystalline brilliance of many of the fast outer movements is very appealing and the slow movements, although somewhat conservative in style, often possess a surprising expressive depth. Of the first volume (8.570718) ClassicsToday wrote: 'Sangiorgio's clean, even-handed, excellently engineered performances are ideal.'

Christopher Hitchens on 'The Axis of Evil'Culture and Society

Journalist and commentator Christopher Hitchens remains one of the high-profile supporters of the Allied Forces' invasion and occupation of Iraq. Speaking recently at the Commonwealth Club of California, he talks about his travels in the countries that President Bush called "the axis of evil".

I feel the presence of a good story teller.
And the tactile queasiness of sunblock, sweat and adherent human dust (whatever that is).
Which greases the slipway for all kinds of dramatic responses - not the least of them another US invasion.
I'm surprised at the commentary below where a few of our friends seem to be mistaking entertainment for cogent political discourse.
For Pete's sake, Hitchens writes for Harpers - or am I mistaken and that august tome has now become the amplifier of some political think tank ?

I agree Hudson. And a BLENDED scotch at that !
He's missing a fairly good pair of Aussie singles - from Tassie (Sullivan's Cove) and WA (Limeburners).

Hitchens is the right-wing commentator for people who like to imagine they're too intelligent to listen to right-wing commentators.
Lars :
15 Sep 2009 11:37:59am
Au contraire, mon ami . . . Hitchens is what a good leftist looks like when the burden of religious leftism and the worship of Marx dissipates.
One then learns that the primary social justice goal in this world is to oppose, wtih strength, the forces of fascism of the left and the right.
Camus would be proud.
Bubblecar :
15 Sep 2009 1:30:41pm
"One then learns that the primary social justice goal in this world is to oppose, wtih strength, the forces of fascism of the left and the right."
So he's all in favour of us declaring war on China? Or only those non-democratic nations we can easily trample underfoot?
Hitchens might well talk sense now and then, but he doesn't seem to make a consistent habit of it. But he certainly attracts those prone to hero worship.
Lars :
15 Sep 2009 4:24:44pm
Hero worship is not in the best interests of the proletariat . . . so I must decline.
If you consider China a fascist threat, why don't you spend your time protesting their actions . . . instead of sniping at the US?
And you're not listening. You have to answer the question. The question is: would you rather Saddam and his two psychopathic sons were still in power?
Well . . . would you, punk? (I hope you see the beauty in that.) If yes, you should re-consider your support for fascism. If no, you should accept the invasion.
Noria :
15 Sep 2009 7:21:02pm
What title would you give to the mentally deranged symptoms that Bush, Howard and Blair exhibited?
If you look up the term fascism, Australia, England and the USA are no less fascist than any other country you may wish to choose.

I think I can understand why such stark black and white options appeal to you and your heroes, Lars.
And yes, this world is of course very much your world. "Who dares wins", and all that.
But don't expect the blessings of the meek, because we have more creative challenges to attend to.

The invasion WAS fascism Lars which means you're giving the punk, as you lovingly describe him, a choice between fascism and fascism. No one would dispute that the west has been fashioned after the so called civilizations of Rome and Greece. Rome started out reasonably democratic but after Julius Caesar made himself dictator for life it was fascism all the way. Anyone who doesn't admit that the west contains within its political culture many attitudes and policies that closely resemble fascism is in denial. Chris Hedges has written a book called American Fascists: the Religious Right and the War on America. If you read it you'll see how the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are part of a bigger picture. Not a pretty picture, I assure you. The CIA put Saddam there and gave him every weapon under the sun so it was inevitable they would have to get rid of him at some stage. It's the moralizing and false hype about democracy that makes me want to puke.
trin tragula :

Only a clown would ask a person on this blog to make a choice between being under the psychopathic Saddam or under the boots of the psychopathic U.S. hegemonic establishment.
You should ask your question to the million dead and wounded and the 4 million displaced persons in Iraq.
In my opinion Christopher Hitchens is also a clown with a shrinking brain on show; he is probably in favour with people with small minds. He is on his way out and he knows where the money is.
james :
21 Feb 2012 11:09:15am
"Accepting" the invasion is one thing but how it was executed even Hitch seemed to wince at, but couldn't disavow. The "postponed liberation" after a decade of sanctions, hurting the Iraqi people, really should have seen Bush Sr. do it with 500,000 boots there. Saddam was amazed he was left in. Schwarzkopf was right (24hrs. more) vs. Powell. Bush Sr did the "UN thing" to a T, leaving misery, screwing Shias urging them to rebel and allowing Saddam to fly helicopter gunships. Bremmer should have been "Viceroy" with more comprehensive power, but Cheney/Halliburton saw otherwise.
Mutley :

So neo-cons and their goons like Hitchens are striving for social justice?
What have you been smoking and where can I get some?
Lars :
14 Sep 2009 10:03:01am
The magnificent Hitchens is one of the few intellectuals who has managed to bridge the divide between left and right with incisive analysis and thought.
He also highlights the fact that the traditional Left are defined by their opposition to fascism and their willingness to fight it head on -- unlike the weak-minded, cult-like, anti-war left that would rather concentrate on trivia like the personality of George Bush.
Azrael :
15 Sep 2009 5:33:17am
Certainly, but don't make the mistake of judging leftist thought by the tiny minority that are so ego-centric as to declare their opinions through mediums that are too short to include reasoning, such as letters to the editor, and unleashed (and yes, I realise the irony in my saying that as a participant), Also don't judge them by the vapidness of those who are loudly left at 20, and quietly right by 30 - they aren't leftists, they're just youth. Nothing wrong with that, but the seriously leftist youth when I was at uni were too busy working for charities and helping the community to have much time for slogans. Don't get me wrong, many of them (myself included) organised a protest or two in our day, but one thing you learn from being on that end is to appreciate all those who are willing to put in effort to help the community, regardless of their specific political and economic beliefs, as opposed to the many who love to spout their political views, but ultimately never lift a finger except for a pay packet and a few hours out at a rally (and are nowhere to be seen when you need assistance for running education campaigns, running soup kitchens for the homeless, or anything that involves actual contribution rather than shouting your beliefs at people).
For a laugh, trying going through P Singer's argument that we should give substantial personal sacrifices to charities, to a group of people who all believe (theoretically) in redistribution of wealth. Wait for them to start massively exaggerating the amount that gets wasted on admin (ignoring the ease with which stats showing what charities are efficient can now be found online), and then fall back on the 'its the gov't and corporations that should do it, not us'. Then go through the Singer's argument that the gov't and corp'ns failure to do their part doesn't mean that individuals should also do nothing, and start pointing out how wealthy a 'poor' student/worker here is compared to many overseas (or in our NW towns). Invite them to find the logical flaws in his argument, and watch them get outraged at the suggestion that THEIR life should change to lessen the suffering of others.
That's the difference (in my view) between traditional left and fashionable left -the recognition that helping the poor means taking the money from someone else, i.e. that you yourself might have to change the way you live.

Thanks for that commentary from the selfish middle class street.
It's no surprise you think the poor should be made to shoulder higher burden of welfare for the poor. But doesn't that defeat the purpose?
It's no surprise you don't care about people struggling on low incomes because there are people paid even less in other countries. "Life wasn't meant to be easy", I hear you say. Well it was for you but why should it be for other people? "These young people think the world owes them a living", you cry. Even though the world gave you a pretty good living thank you very much.
I bet you're in favour of regressive taxation like the GST. Yes. Those nasty poor people should be paying a higher proportion of their income in tax because that will teach them a lesson!
Mate, your drivel is tired and desperate. You don't have any ideology. You are just selfish and small minded. Come the revolution I wouldn't want to be in your shoes.

Regardless of your views on the invasion of Iraq, Christopher opens the mind to the terrors suffered by the people of Iraq under Saddam. One hopes that their suffering will be ended soon.
LoneWolfe :
06 Sep 2009 6:55:23pm
This talk goes some way towards explaining Hitchens' approval of the Shock and Awe abomination but surely he doesn't believe it was worth the murder of tens, maybe thousands, or Iraqi civilians to remove Hussein and his monstrous family from office? There had to be a better, more humane way.
David C :
14 Sep 2009 6:38:49pm
Didnt the world try the better, more humane way for 12 years?
why not the truth :
14 Sep 2009 7:33:48pm
"but surely he doesn't believe it was worth the murder of tens, maybe thousands, or Iraqi civilians to remove Hussein"
Oh come on, Lone Wolfe...you should have said hundreds of thousands, maybe 1.4 million of Iraqi civilians. But you did get it right when you used the word MURDER. And Australia was one of the Murderers in Chief!
The ABC consistently downplays the actual number killed in Iraq. Most estimates are that more than a third of the casualties are caused directly by coalition troops. It's one of the worst slaughters to have taken place since the Second World War. Let's face up to it.
John O :
14 Sep 2009 10:37:01pm
Really? Name one. He had to be removed but the real error was the vacuum that was left.
Mutley :
25 Sep 2009 5:48:14pm
John O,
No. If he "had" to be removed for humanitarian reasons Saddam could have been overthrown by his own people after the first gulf war. Mnay had followed US encouragement to rise up and overthrow Saddam but they were betrayed.
At the war's end the US lines parted to allow the Republican Guard to pass through and return to Baghdad. They were a professional army, well armed and with much armour. They then roamed Iraq killing anybody who had risen up against Saddam during the war.
The only reason he "had" to be removed this time was because he was going to demand payment for oil in Euros instead of US Dollars. Therefore he "had" to go. And they did get rid of him at massive cost to the people of Iraq.
ant :
15 Sep 2009 5:15:03am
The better, more humane way would have been for the CIA not to put Saddam Hussein in power in Iraq or for Donald Rumsfeld not to make those trips where he supplied Saddam with deadly weapons including anthrax and chemical weapons, which I think included the nerve gas Saddam later used on the Kurds.
Hitchens is an out and out apologist for the United States and their oil wars and also actually went to the trouble of sitting down to write a book in which he castigated Mother Theresa for caring for the poor, lepers and the dying in a slum and accused her of being some kind of gangster. He has no credibility whatsoever and has become a bit of a joke. As for applying the word intellectual to this wannabe: an intellectual has to be able to think outside the power structure of the day and he can't. He also hates women. How any of this makes him fantastic, as opined by Alcyone Noth, except in some of the definitions given in the Macquarie Dictionary -(1)odd, quaint, eccentric or grotesque in conception, design, character, movement etc (2) fanciful or capricious as persons or their ideas, actions, etc (3) imaginary, groundless, not real (4) extravagantly fanciful, irrational - is hard to understand. The only way he gets away with his nonsense is because he's got the voice of an actor and the hide of a rhinoceros.
Jack Lacton :

The CIA did not put Saddam in power.
The USA did not supply deadly weapons, including nerve agents, to Iraq.
In fact, the Iraqi arsenal was made up of less than 3% USA manufactured equipment. Most of it came from France, Germany, Russia and China.
If you spent any time doing real research rather than simply forming immature opinions then you'd know these facts.
Hitchens started out as a full blown Communist and is still an avowed Socialist albeit he is flexible on what he allows to be called socialist these days.
Salman Rushdie lived with him for many years when the fatwa was in full swing. Must have been some interesting conversations had in that household.

A ).Another very good example of a CIA-organized regime change was a coup in 1963 that employed political assassination, mass imprisonment, torture and murder. This was the military coup that first brought Saddam Hussein's beloved Ba'ath Party to power in Iraq. At the time, Richard Helms was Director for Plans at the CIA. That is the top CIA position responsible for covert actions, like organizing coups. Helms served in that capacity until 1966, when he was made Director.
from Regime Change: How the CIA put Saddam's Party in Power
From Richard Sanders, 24 October 2002
B) September 1980 Iraq invades Iran.
February 1982 Ronald Reagan removes Iraq from the US list of terrorist countries
December 1982 Hughes Aircraft ships 60 Defender helicopters to Iraq.
November 1983 Banca Nazionale del Lavora of Italy and its branch in Atlanta begin to funnel $5 billion in unreported loans to Iraq which is used by Iraq to buy industrial goods for its missile, chemical, biological and nuclear weapons programs.
Reagan secretly allows Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Egypt to transfer US weapons including Howitzers, Huey helicopters and bombs to Iraq. These shipments violated the Arms Export Control Act.
July 1984 CIA begins giving Iraq intelligence necessary for it to calibrate its mustard gas attacks on Iranian troops.
March 1986 The US and Britain block all Security Council resolutions condemning Iraq's use of chemical weapons. On March 21 the US becomes the only country refusing to sign a security council statement condemning Iraq's use of these weapons.
May 1985-1989 The US exports at least 2l batches of lethal strains of anthrax to Iraq.
February 1988 Saddam uses chemical weapons on the Kurds. 100,000 people die.
Is that mature enough for you? Like so many others, including Hitchens, you are willfully ignorant.
Mutley :
18 Sep 2009 6:56:21pm
Well said mate. And let's not forget the sanctions on Iraq that came in after the gulf war and killed a million or so people we are now supposedly helping for humanitarian reasons.
This single line from Madeline Albright shows up Bush and Clinton and Blair and Howard and all their "western civilisation" cronies for the murdering gangster scum that they are. As a white anglo saxon protestant I am ashamed of their racist blood lust.
Lars :
21 Sep 2009 4:40:48pm
Wrong again. Saddam had sufficient resources to feed his people during sactions. He and the regime were responsible for any untoward deaths.
He used the misery of his own people to attempt to thwart sanctions. You can't have it both ways -- try to improve situations in countries like Iraq by soft power, and it never works.
And it's easy to see why Hitchens and Dawkins so oppose religious fundamentalism. You two have demonstrated it right here. Messianic, millenarian, fundamentalism of the most dangerous kind.
Mutley :
23 Sep 2009 1:50:11am
Call me fundamentalist for opposing killing of innocent children under any circumstance if you like. Fine by me. If killing innocent kids is OK by you in the name of pragmatism I really don't care how you judge me because you are morally bankrupt and, quite frankly, fail as a human being.
The sanctions started in 1990. Food-for-oil was implemented by Clinton in 1995 so that was at least five years where nothing was getting through.
Sufficient food in Iraq when all food imports were blocked? What did they eat? Sand? And what about the medical supplies blocked in the embargo? What about the chlorine we wouldn't let them have to purify their water?
Here is what UNICEF survey of over 24,000 households had to say...
..."The surveys reveal that in the south and center of Iraq -- home to 85 per cent of the country's population -- under-5 mortality more than doubled from 56 deaths per 1000 live births (1984-1989) to 131 deaths per 1000 live births (1994-1999). Likewise infant mortality -- defined as the death of children in their first year -- increased from 47 per 1000 live births to 108 per 1000 live births within the same time frame. The surveys indicate a maternal mortality ratio in the south and center of 294 deaths per 100,000 live births over the ten-year period 1989 to 1999."...
And let's not forget the UN Humanitarian Manager in Iraq, Dennis Halliday, quit because he would not implement a GENOCIDE. (His words)
This is what he said...
..."... as head of the UN Humanitarian Program in Iraq. I was driven to resignation because I refused to continue to take Security Council orders, the same Security Council that had imposed and sustained genocidal sanctions on the innocent of Iraq. I did not want to be complicit. I wanted to be free to speak out publicly about this crime. And above all, my innate sense of justice was and still is outraged by the violence that UN sanctions have brought upon, and continues to bring upon, the lives of children, families – the extended families, the loved ones of Iraq. There is no justification for killing the young people of Iraq, not the aged, not the sick, not the rich, not the poor. Some will tell you that the leadership is punishing the Iraqi people. That is not my perception, or experience from living in Baghdad. And were that to be the case – how can that possibly justify further punishment, in fact collective punishment, by the United Nations? I don't think so. And international law has no provision for the disproportionate and murderous consequences of the ongoing UN embargo – for well over 12 long years"...
Lars :
20 Sep 2009 8:20:48am
Ant, you're reading has been terribly restricted. Have you bothered to verfify and qualify any of those statements beyond the typical left rants?
There is no doubt the US helped Iraq in the war against Iran . . . payback for sure after the Iranian hostage siege. But Jack is correct, most of the weapons supply, even the nuclear technology, came from the Germans, French, Russians and China. This is not in dispute.
Even the anthrax was delivered on a university exchange program, in which the US participates with many countries. A mistake I will agree. The chemical technology was mostly German and French.
As for the CIA, and how much assitance was given at any point in time . . . you don't know, neither do your sources. Again, I've no doubt they would have been involved, but in any case, this is the past, a complex set of historical circumstances, and has very little bearing on neocon policy to address a disastrous situation.
Mutley :
23 Sep 2009 7:00:47pm
How convenient you have "forgotten" the whole Iran/Contra disgrace.
Yes, the USA did arm Iraq in the war. They also bankrolled and armed Iran. They funded and armed BOTH sides in a war that saw two million people killed. This is not in dispute.
During the Iran/Contra hearings the CIA was said to have wanted the war to last as long as possible and have each side weakened (translation: as many people killed on both sides) as much as possible without a clear winner. That is exactly what they got too. Over two million dead and the lines at the end of the war were where they were at the start. So much for "humanitarian" concern for Iraqis and Iranians...
The USA did not fund Iraq for "payback" against Iran. The USA funded Iran directly with weapons to get hostages back. They traded weapons for hostages in a deal they had cut with Iran before Raygun was elected. Then the hostages were released the day Raygun was inaugurated. So the GOP were in bed with the ayatollahs all along. Don't just take my word for it.
Now you say this had "no bearing on neo con policy" and was all because of complex historical facts you don't list? What a load of deceitful rubbish. It was deliberate and sustained policy by many of the same neo con gangsters who ran amok under George W Bush.
For instance, George H W Bush was Raygun's Vice President and former director of the CIA. After the hearings, when it became known the Raygun administration had lied to congress there were some big scalps taken. There were felony convictions of Secretary of Defence Casper Weinberger and the National Security Advisor John Poindexter. And another 12 officials were also convicted. Of course, all these convictions were pardoned in the last days of George W H Bush's presidency.
Under W's stewardship we saw Poindexter become "Director of Information Awareness". W also brought back John Negroponte formerly Honduran ambassador under Raygun and "friend" of the contras. Under W he was appointed Ambassador to the UN, Ambassador to Iraq, the Deputy Secretary of State and the Director of National Intelligence! Elliot Abrams was appointed as W's "Special Advisor" and then made a Senior Director of the NSC.
Still say it's all above board and for "humanitarian reasons" and saying otherwise is a "leftist rant"? Hehehehe. You don't have a clue.
P.S. Gotta love youtube when the like of Lars try to revise history.

Further to my own post above, where I said
"Don't take my word for it" there was a link to Raygun himself saying it on youtube. For some reason that link has not come through on my post.
So, if you go to youtube and type in " Reagan Address Iran Contra " it should come up.

I've found that it is mainly theists who oppose Hitchens. I don't think anyone logical could oppose his views. You may not like them, hell I don't like some of them. But he is almost always dead on.

i notice hitchens dislikes religion but seems to be silent on israels atrocities in gaza.
never heard hin doing any jew-bashing.
please explain.

Don't beat around the bus - tell us what you really think Freddy!
I agree with you though- Hitchen's work on religion is interesting and engaging, his commentary on iraq is confronting and his lack of commentary on israel is a frustratingly large omission.
I can understand to some extent the siege-like mentality of Israel, but surely they can see it is a two-way street... perhaps not?
Reason :
15 Sep 2009 11:51:34am
You've never listened to a single Hitchens speech or debate then Fred. Deaf as well as blind perhaps? "Diseased and deranged settlers of the West Bank" is a phrase that often comes up from Hitchens as well as sharp criticism of forced male genital mutilation and devestating attacks on the hypocrisies of Old Testament. These just for starters.

I have a 12yo DSS who just started 7th grade and he's having a ton of social trouble. The kids in his classes are just brutal- he was hoping this year would be better than last because he didn't have any classes with any of the problem kids from last year, but now there are new problem kids and it's getting to the point where he's crying hysterically in the morning and refusing to go to school.
Does anyone know of any resources to help him connect to other kids in the same boat? I know there are thousands of kids out there like him, who get teased and bullied and don't have any friends to turn to to make it any better....I just wish there was a way to find them and match them up. But I thought maybe someone out there might know of some resource I'm failing to find. He is seeing a therapist to help him cope, but I feel like what he really needs is a friend who's going through the same thing.
Any help or advice would be excellent!

I just wanted to tell you about something my brother called me about thismorning concerning Puerto Rico. His wife works at a hospital and he calledme freaked out about the hundreds of body bags that were recently broughtto her hospital as well as thousands to other hospitals around the island.This coupled with thousand of FEMA Black Coffins being delivered to Mercedita Airport and dozens of Military Vehicles to the port. Not arumor, first hand witness account from my own family. FEMA, in a statementby their representative in the Caribbean said that it was unfounded rumorsand misinformation, but my own sister in law confirms that the rumors aretrue. There is also a threat of an upcoming tsunami and earthquake to theCaribbean and the east coast of the US being discussed even in the newsmedia in PR. How is it even possible to call a tsunami like that before ithappens? Have you head anything about it? Have you heard of the coffinson the island? I know about the ones here on the main land and those arefreaky enough….

Perfect faces
I am often amazed at how the most unlikely of faces will translate beautifully to film. They can be original, unseen and quirky features but fully achieve to compel the viewer. Every so often though, one does find one of those perfect creatures that God took extra time with. Sort of the way Michelangelo laboured over the the most unnoticeable details in some obscure corner of the Sistine Chapel, because he knew it would be there for all time and the details is where art lives.
Well I stumbled upon this face and it is not quirky, perhaps not even original, but it is perfect. Every feature in this face is about as proportioned and breathtakingly beautiful as humanity can create.

I would start by moving the current preferences file in your user space and force Numbers to create a new one.
To do this:
0) Quit Numbers
1) Go to the preferences Folder for your user space by (from the Finder):
a) type <command>+g, OR
b) select the menu item "Go > Go to Folder…"
2) the type the path: "~/Library/Preferences"
3) locate the file "com.apple.iWork.Numbers.plist"
you may also move the file "com.apple.iWork.Numbers.LSSharedFileList.plist"
4) move this file to the desktop (incase we need it again)
5) start Numbers
4thSpace Sep 27, 2011 7:48 AM
in response to Wayne Contello
Thanks. I did that and Numbers opened quickly. Then I tried to open one of the files I've been working with. It got to about 3/4 progress opening and stalled. Now everything in Numbers is back to the spinning rainbow. You have some idea what is wrong?
Wayne Contello Sep 27, 2011 7:52 AM
in response to 4thSpace
I should have added:
6) quit Numbers
7) create anew file, save, quit
8) open the new file (just as a test)
9 now open the file you are trying to open (my guess is this file is corrupt)
Can you provide any details regarding the file? Is it large? Does it have many calculations? Di Numbers crash while the file was open? Anything else "odd" of weird before the the problems started?
4thSpace Sep 27, 2011 8:09 AM
in response to Wayne Contello
I tried the above. When I went to save the new file, Numbers froze again. All spinning rainbows and no response.
It started when I was trying to save a file I work with everyday. The file isn't large. It is a file I create for each month. There is a sheet for each weekday (M-F) of that month. Each sheet has 4 tables. There is an addition calculation in one column of one of the tables. Nothing complex going on.
Nothing else weird that I can recall when this started.
Wayne Contello Sep 27, 2011 8:15 AM
in response to 4thSpace Solved
OK. Then try removing the preference file from your User Space AND from the system:
Add the following steps to remove the System Preferences File:
0) quit Numbers
1) go to "/Library/Preferences"
2) locate the file "com.apple.iWork09.plist"
3) move this file to the trash or the Desktop (but don't delete yet)
4) remove the preferences files in your user space as we previously discussed
5) start numbers
6) create new file
7) save file
8) quit numbers
9) double click new Numbers file you created in (7)
10) if that opens, then try opening your "problem" file
KOENIG Yvan Sep 27, 2011 8:18 AM
in response to 4thSpace
Try to run Numbers from an other user account.
This way we will know if the wrongdoer is in your current user account or if it is among the thousands of files shared by every account.

Looks like I can now open/close Numbers ok. Creating a new file, saving, close and quiting Numbers all works. So I went back to the problem file and it stalled at 3/4 progress. I let it sit for a while and it opened. Now all is back to normal and I have some ideas what to do next time this happens. Thanks.

Let's hope Lobo can stay on his best behavior . . .yeah, right!John Stewart has been sent to Rann to discuss with Vril Dox the current situation in the Vega system. All of Rann has assembled to see his arrivial. After a quick exchange of pleasentries John, Virl and Adam Strange meet behind closed doors, where John drops the niceities and gets real with Vril. He tell the REBEL leader that the Guardian are not happy with whats going on in sector 2828 and they are blaming Virl and his REBEL group.Virl counters with the information that Citadel is planning on blowing up Vega, the sun that the sector is named after. Instead of dealing with it himself John sends Altin and Gorius, the rookie lanterns in charge of the sector. They easliy take care of the Citadel but have some trouble with the bomb. Lucky Gorius figures out a way to make it smaller and the two surrive and save the system.The two rookies are promoted to full fledge green lanterns, and John leaves Virl with a word of warning. Although John can't prove Virl was behind the potential attack he'd be watched. It is later revealed that Virl did have his son, Lyrl, design the bomb but he had planned on the Green Lanterns fail and REBEL come to the rescue, as John had predicted.Meanwhile on Psion, Starro makes his return.

Between going to Hollywood and into the drain
Well. Sorry for not posting anything since yesterday, I was on leave actually. So I disconnected myself for the whole day.
I want to share something interesting and unfortunate that happened to my family in the past 24-hours. First, the good news (because it happened first).
My nephew has won Astro's Movie Mania contest grand prize – he will join Anuar Zain for an all-expenses paid trip for 5 days 4 nights in Hollywood. There are only 5 winners together with their own partner.
Bad news? Many. Apart from having to spend the entire trip with Anuar Zain (I don't like his singing), he's bringing his mom (my sister) and not me! Damn. I should've sponsored his prepaid when he joined in the contest – then I'd have a strong point.
And because the prize giving is tonight in KL, they have to attend it. So on their way to the airport this morning at 5.20am (their flight at 6.30am), my dad's Kembara went off the road and went into the direction of the large drain by the side of the highway.
Fortunately, the barrier prevented them from having an early bath. My parents who were seated in front were wearing seat belts. So only minor chest pains for them.
My sister's chin and knees hit the front seat. My nephew managed to use his fast-sms-sending fingers to prevent his body moving forward.
The front side is smashed but still drivable. My sister and nephew still managed to catch their flight to KL.
I sms my nephew and told him if he's shaken up by the whole thing, I can replace him going to Hollywood. Hehe.
Well that's my story. Off to work.

It's a cheap thrill when someone checks out your t-shirt, gets it, and walks off leaving you feeling slutty and used up. Make them want to form a relationship with your shirt, with Chop Shop

<INSET>Meticulously drawn by Bklyn web designerds (you've probably seen their work at RachelRay.com), Chop's tees double as esoteric challenges via silhouetted graphic montages of iconic-to-obscure pop-culture figures, whose identity the observer's intended to guess -- basically, an MTV game show on your rack. Starting with sci-fi, Chop presents rosters of 50 notable aliens (Silver Surfer, a space invader, Alf...), 51 robots (Voltron, Robot Godzilla, Robocop<\/em>'s ED-209...), and 55 vehicles, including Kaneda's motorcycle from Akira<\/em>, the lightcycle from Tron<\/em>, and the General Lee -- technically not sci-fi, unless Hazzard's a parallel universe where rednecks refuse to sleep with even the hottest of cousins. The geekier-than-thou trivia-art continues with a guess-the-Internets-meme tee (dancing baby, spaghetti monster, Connery telling you you're the man now, dawg) and three ridiculously difficult to suss rock tees: Video Rock, displaying 31 80s musicians in famous music vid poses (MJ on his toes, Eddie Van Halen jumping...); Rebel Rock, with 34 '72-'82 rockers in the shape of a Fender Strat (Stevie Wonder w\/ keyboard, Alice Cooper w\/ snake...); and Rock Star, with 28 '60s-'70s artists gathered in the shape of a five-point star, including Janis brandishing a bottle, Lennon a peace sign, and Jethro Tull's Ian Anderson a flute -- without which you wouldn't recognize him even if you looked out at your dumpster right now and saw him gnawing bones

Chop also serves up less game-like but just as clever tees, including Maid in the Shade (showing a laptop-cradling, nerd Hugh Hefner being attended to by a French maid), and Helbotica, a robot formed from the Helvetica font -- because when you're looking for the spark that'll lead to a lasting relationship, Copperplate Light just doesn't have the same Impact.

2010 NFL draft: Tackle prospects at a glance
OSU's Okung is among five who could go early in first round
With starting offensive tackles Chad Clifton and Mark Tauscher both over 32 years of age, the Green Bay Packers desperately need to find their successors within the next two drafts.
The good news for the Packers is that this is one of the best drafts in some time for tackles, according to several scouts. But they might not get any of the top-tier players.
That might not be such a bad thing. There are several players capable of playing either side within the first three rounds. It will be up to the Packers to target the players they want and make sure they get one at some point.
6 feet 5¼ inches, 307 pounds, 5.17 seconds
in 40-yard dash
The lowdown: Has all the traits teams look for in a franchise left tackle. Good length, sturdy, great in the running game. Needs to improve his technique in pass protection and doesn't have terrific feet but has more than enough agility. Dominant at college level.
Quotable: "If you go back and look at how I play, I'm going to try to hit you in the mouth more times than you hit me in the mouth. That's just the way I am."
Projection: First round.
6-5 3/8, 315, 5.26
The lowdown: Technically superior, just like every offensive lineman out of Kirk Ferentz's program. Has great balance but there are questions about whether he's quick enough for the left side. Would have no problem on the right. Also versatile, can play every position except center. Blood infection (thyroiditis) isn't believed to be problem.
Quotable: "The way we run our offense at Iowa is something a lot of NFL teams like to see. We're in a three-point stance a lot. We're getting after guys a lot."
Projection: First round.
6-4 5/8, 315, 4.88
The lowdown: Has great athletic ability but that has yet to transfer to his game. Struggled when moved from right tackle to left. Teams view his upside very highly; some think he'll eventually be best in this class. Work ethic is bit of a concern. Tends to be lazy in his physical preparation.
Quotable: "When I got healthy, I think I produced well. It was kind of tough sledding at the beginning of the season with a lot of nagging injuries."
Projection: First round.
6-5 3/8, 303, 5.15
The lowdown: Long arms and top-notch foot quickness project him to be a franchise left tackle. Moves like a tight end, his original position. Lacks strength and there are questions about his toughness and work ethic. Teams worry he won't work. Not good run blocking.
Quotable: "I've been working out a lot, trying to get my hands and my feet moving (to improve in the run game)."
Projection: First round.
6-6 3/8, 314, 4.85
The lowdown: Is an athletic freak. Had what most consider the best workout in combine history for a tackle. Is strong, has long arms and quick feet. Attributes don't translate on film. Disappeared for long stretches for Terrapins. Didn't get one all-conference vote.
Quotable: "They can say I'm raw, but at the same time, we're all starting from the same position. Everyone has a chance to improve themselves."
Projection: First round.
6-5, 323, 5.38
The lowdown: Looks the part of a left tackle with functional strength, agility, long arms and some push in the run game. But there are a lot of questions about how much he wants to be a football player and whether he'll work at it. Relies too much on natural ability. Weight fluctuates, was as heavy as 366 at one point.
Quotable: "My athleticism helps me get out of a lot of situations. If I step the wrong way, it helps me get back into position."
Projection: Second round.
6-4 5/8, 316, 5.22
The lowdown: Was under the radar until he stood out the week of the East-West Shrine Game and put to rest any fears about whether he can play left side in pros. Started 41 games at left tackle. Plays with a good knee bend and balance. Not overly physical. Needs to improve hand work.
Quotable: "I'm not going to be somebody that just sits in the background. I'm going to go out here, and I'm going to take it."
Projection: Second round.
6-8, 312, 5.09
The lowdown: The Division II product has tremendous size and still manages to move well. Arms (33 inches) are a bit on the short side for someone that tall. Obvious questions about the level of play at Hillsdale. Will need time to develop but has great tools.
Quotable: "They'll get a player who hates to get beat, a guy who's competitive, a great athlete with competitiveness."
Projection: Second round.
6-4 3/8, 332, 5.21
The lowdown: Haiti native only started playing football his junior year in high school. Looks the part with long arms, nice build in his lower body and solid feet. Fared OK at Senior Bowl against much better competition. Bit of a project, but if he's handled correctly, he could have long career.
Quotable: "One thing I've learned is that in the inside move, the problem was I was oversetting and getting out too much. I need to be a little more patient."
Projection: Second round.
6-6 ½, 323, 5.51
The lowdown: Will only be able to play right side in the NFL. Not athletic enough to play the left side. Tends to play tall, which allows players to push him back. Hard worker that should take to coaching. Needs little bit better fundamentals before he can be left alone in pass protection.
Quotable: "Kyle's a good player and I was proud to line up with him. I think he'll absolutely help an NFL team." - Teammate Bryan Bulaga.
Projection: Fifth round.
11. Selvish Capers, West Virginia; 12. Jason Fox, Miami; 13. Tony Washington, Abilene Christian; 14. Kevin Haslam, Rutgers; 15. Michael Tepper, California; 16. Ed Wang, Virginia Tech.

Prince Charles Is Right About Putin
Matt Gurney, National Post
The Associated Press
Charles, Prince of Wales, on a four-day Canadian tour, has sparked controversy around the world — particularly back at home in Britain — with comments reportedly made to a woman in Halifax. Britain's The Daily Mail reports that the Prince spoke with a Canadian woman, Marienne Ferguson. Ms. Ferguson's immediate ancestors, who were Jews, fled Poland before the German invasion, but some of her extended family did not, and were caught up in German invasion. In reply, the Prince is said to have commented that, "And now Putin is doing just about the same as Hitler."

I have inherited a certain trait from my father. I find it hard to pass up a bargain, even when it's something I know I won't use or won't use completely. It is not uncommon to look in my parents' pantry and find 10 jars of jelly or 30 cans of... Read more

geographic and socioeconomic range. Although the model city neighborhoods retained their service programs during the first two years of the CDBG, by the third year service funds were similarly dispersed. In Allegheny County many of the service programs that had gone to Turtle Creek Valley were dismantled by the second year of the CDBG in favor of a broader-based constituency, the elderly. Physical development shifted to a wider range of purposes and to a larger number of the county's older towns. The county's neighborhood conservation efforts were targeted at moderate-income residential areas, where property owners could be expected to afford their share of housing improvements, rather than the poorer areas. Chicago canceled most of its outstanding urban renewal and neighborhood development projects and expanded its target area beyond the four model cities neighborhoods to include a number of new CDBG target areas designated for conservation efforts, while park improvements funded by the CDBG were extended to some of the city's more affluent areas.
Phoenix provides an example of CDBG targeting. Although geographic spreading did occur as the city expanded its activity beyond the Booker T. Washington project area, the expansion was confined primarily to the housing and public improvement needs of South Phoenix, the city's most impoverished minority area. This new effort in South Phoenix, however, was also accompanied by some CDBG allocations to the city departments, and this resulted in a dispersed pattern of public improvements, although with relatively little funding.
Despite the tendency toward spreading, none of the five tried to devise a strategy of pure, even dispersion among income groups or neighborhoods. Each concentrated funds for particular purposes or geographic areas while at the same time touching a broad number of constituencies, however lightly, with some share of the program benefits. Project centerpieces were combined with a smaller share of flexible funds to meet demands across the jurisdiction.
The new opportunities opened up by the CDBG tended to evoke a common response. Local executives, seeking to minimize conflict, accommodated new claimants. There is little evidence that development strategies rather than political concerns and distributive benefits were

Photo gallery: Animals in the news from 2012
Lately, we've been taking a look back at some of our favorite photos and stories from the last year. Just for fun, here's one more. Animals have turned up in the news a lot this year. A ribbon seal that was hanging out a long way from home caught a lot of attention. A very special cat was reunited with her owner. A dog was returned home after allegedly being sold on Craigslist. And there were so many more stories.
Take a look back in our photo gallery here.

Leaders of Yes Scotland have been severely criticised for refusing to reveal the names of those who are bankrolling their pro-independence campaign, it emerged yesterday.
Sir Alistair Graham, the former Chairman of the Committee on Standards in Public Life, said it was not democratic to keep from voters the names of those who are paying for the campaign. The pro-independence campaign has made several clear commitments to financial transparency, including one by Blair Jenkins, the head of the group, to the Scottish Affairs Committee in November 2012.
Yet despite a recent disclosure by Better Together of the names of its

The Needle: Richmond Goes Hollywood
Just Another Earthquake-Sex Joke: The Washington Post's live blog of the ongoing proceedings of the federal corruption case against former Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell and his wife could be the best thing on the Internet this week. A highlight: In trying to show that the relationship between Maureen McDonnell and Jonnie Williams Sr., the CEO of Star Scientific, was more than pure business, the defense showed an email that the first lady wrote to Williams after the 2011 earthquake: "I just felt the earth move and I wasn't even having sex!!!!" Also, there's this stellar photo of the former governor wearing shades and smiling as he drives Williams' Ferrari with the top down. +7
Duh: Government records indicate that federal workers across many different agencies surf porn websites when they are feeling bored on the job. That's probably not the best thing to do on government time, but, with access to a government computer, there are a lot more destructive things these workers could be doing. +/- 0
License to Ban: The California DMV rejected an application from a man attempting to get a license plate with an abbreviation of the Washington football team's name on it. Why? Because it's a racial slur. +3
RIP: Hogo, the Mount Vernon Square bar that serves cocktails in pineapples, will shutter after this Saturday to make way for a new office building. -2
Yesterday's Needle rating: 42 Today's score: +8 Friday Bonus: +2 Today's Needle rating: 52

I an 18weeks pregnant and i was wondering if there are healthy nigerian foods that i can learn to prepare. Our diet contains alot of carbohydrates which isnt too good so please if you have some kindly share. Thank you
Healthy Nigerian foods to eat while pregnant
Very true about the carbohydrate
Vegetables, fruits, soya beans are all healthy but of course, in moderation. U shudnt over do anything
Also, I took pregnacare while I was pregnant( nt d nigerian one oh)
Instead of eba I opt for semo but best wheat which switched to coz its low in carb than semo.
I try to eat more of vegetable soup coz I get filled easily with small eba and in this I advice you deviate from the normal eforiro process and don't squeeze out your vegetable nutrients, I use ugu(pumpkin leaves) and water leave to make my veggie soup. Just wash properly before slicing and don't over cook, they are nutritious and filling. I like to swallow a lot so I eat small portions at different intervals so it can easily digest in my system.
Instead of just rice, do more of beans or white rice and beans by the side. Don't joke with your salads and coleslaw.
Instead of too much red oil egusi(melon) soup you can go for white egusi soup with no-cholesterol oil, infact you can use this to eat your wheat and even white rice but if you can't just reduce the oil to the barest minimum. in my house I usually have my own dishes separately prepared coz of some variations
When I was pregnant, I usually eat a large dish of fruits some morning. I buy a variety of pawpaw, watermelon and pineapples. I also loved taking cereals, wheatmeal and kept away from some solid foods like eba. Also take a lot of fluid cos you could get dehydrated easily when u become a lot heavier. i took yogurt (not the ones sold by fanice, usually bought some from shoprite). Pregnacare was a no-no for me as they made me nauseous but i made sure i didn't miss on my folic acid and calcium. Also you may steam ugu leaves with onions, little spices and dried fish or shrimps or diced meat instaed of making the efo riro with so much oil. this u can eat with solids or as a side meal with rice/ beans.
All the best dear.
Mummy to little Tiger E born 02/02/2012
I think sweet potatoes are fine. I hope spicy food is fine as well because I can't manage without my pepper o

Kimmage recently received a summons to […]
Do Compression Garments Really Work?
February 10, 2011
I've been a fan of compression garments for a couple of years now. Whether or not they actually perform the function that's declared has always been a lingering question in my mind. Are compression garments as effective as the Power Balance Band? Or will they really improve performance and accelerate muscle repair as claimed? I should state […]
Compression Garments For Cycling?
March 11, 2009
What cyclist wouldn't be interested in improving recovery, increasing performance, and minimizing delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS)? I pay hundreds if not thousands of dollars trying to increase my performance by fractions of a percentage. Not to mention countless hours of training and various recovery techniques. Compression garments have been the new fad over the […]
