Love to read RED SONJA in this style! Nice piece.
Aaah, I wish I could be able to draw her regularly. Not sure if my art would like her whole readers.
I really like your work. Would you be willing to do a short color story, 4-6 pages, where payment was unlikely (don't want to make a promise I can't keep) but you'd get copies of the book? All your ownership and copyright!! Could be a "Tinkers" story...
Let me know and I'll get you into an issue of Heavy Metal or my own anthology I'm launching at the end of the year.

Hello Deev, your proposal sounds interesting. However, I need to accomplish some other projects. About the Tinkers Short story, are you planning to write it? or are you expecting from me to draw it and publish it in your anthology? Just curious.
I'm always open to collaborate with someone.
I'm always open to collaborate with someone.
I was thinking it would be all you! It wouldn't have to be Tinkers but as you're working on that right now it might be good promotion for it.
Just a thought.

HuffingtonPost Blogger Feed for Chris Leslie Good old fashioned elbow grease. How Can This Government Attempt to Justify a £3Billion Tax Cut for the Top One Per Cent? tag:www.huffingtonpost.com,2014:/theblog//3.6105824 2014-11-04T19:00:00-05:00 2015-01-04T05:59:01-05:00 Chris Leslie http://www.huffingtonpost.com/chris-leslie/ In fact, the average household will be nearly £1,000 worse off by next year as a result of tax and benefit changes introduced since 2010. Yet today a Treasury minister will stand up in the Commons and attempt to justify the coalition's £3billion tax cut for the top one per cent of earners. Nothing could better illustrate how the Tories and Lib Dems are out of touch with working people in Britain. That is why I will be leading an Opposition Day debate this afternoon on the tax cut for millionaires. It was wrong to announce a tax cut for people earning over £150,000 - as George Osborne did in 2012 - and it is wrong today at a time when working people are continuing to experience an unprecedented fall in living standards and the deficit remains high. And yet, remarkably, the Tories continue to consider a further cut in the tax rate paid by Britain's highest earners. So today I will also challenge Ministers to rule out a further reduction in the top rate of income tax for people earning over £150,000. Labour has pledged to reverse the top rate tax cut for the next parliament as part of a series of tough decisions to balance the books in a fairer way. This Tory top rate tax cut is worth an average of £100,000 for those earning more than £1million. Tory ministers tried to justify this giveaway by arguing that most of the potential tax revenue would have been lost as a result of avoidance. But their justification fell apart when it emerged the key decision on the "behavioural effect" of cutting the top rate was taken by ministers, not HMRC. The average British family has not been anywhere near so fortunate as the highest earners, however, and will be £974 a year worse off by 2015 because of tax and benefit changes introduced since 2010, according to figures from the independent Institute for Fiscal Studies. Can there be any greater fallacy than George Osborne's desperate claim that "we're all in this together"? In the four years since then we have seen not one or two but 24 Tory tax rises. The reality is that the Tory economic plan is to cut taxes at the very top and hope wealth trickles down. Yet there is no evidence this actually works. In fact, recent figures from HMRC show the share of post-tax income of the top one per cent of taxpayers - just 300,000 people - rose from 8.2 per cent to 9.8 per cent in the 12 months to in 2013/14. Over the same period, the bottom 90 per cent - a total of 27million taxpayers - have seen their share of post-tax income actually fall, from 71.3%, to 70.4%. And we know the Tories want to entrench this divide because, at their party conference, David Cameron and George Osborne pledged to cut tax credits again for millions of working families. So it is clear that working people cannot afford more of this failed Tory economics. Labour will balance the books in the next Parliament in a fairer way. We will reverse the Tory tax cut for millionaires, stop paying the winter fuel allowance to the richest pensioners, raise child benefit by just one per cent for two years and cut ministers' pay by five per cent. And we will introduce a lower 10p starting rate of tax for 24million working people and act to secure a strong and balanced recovery that delivers more good jobs and rising living standards for the many. The Tories always stand up for a privileged few at the top. Only Labour will stand up for hard working people on middle and low incomes.]]> We'll Call Out the Tory Lie Machine tag:www.huffingtonpost.com,2014:/theblog//3.5641656 2014-08-01T19:00:00-04:00 2014-10-01T05:59:07-04:00 Chris Leslie http://www.huffingtonpost.com/chris-leslie/ showed in his recent blog, they have plenty of form for telling pork pies, fibs and whoppers about Labour. The problem is that this week the Tory Lie Machine hasn't been working at full throttle - in fact, it keeps backfiring. On Monday, they tried to attack Yvette Cooper's speech on The Choice on Crime and Justice - but their rebuttal ended up admitting that the number of police officers on the frontline has fallen by almost 16,000, and that prosecutions and convictions for rape have fallen between their first year in office and last year. Bad start. On Thursday, they decided to put Chris Grayling up to make a speech about Labour's plans - on the very day that his own department, the Ministry of Justice, issued shocking figures about his own appalling performance in office, with twice as many prisons rated "of serious concern" compared to last year, a huge decline in prison safety, and an increase in the number of prisoners absconding - a number that rose again that very afternoon. Imagine if Grayling did his own job properly instead of spreading lies about the Labour Party. To make matters worse, Grayling ended up admitting that the tennis match involving David Cameron and Boris Johnson, flogged to the wife of one of Vladimir Putin's cronies for £160,000 to raise money for Tory Party coffers, was still going ahead - putting the spotlight back onto the murky world of Tory fundraising, where hedge funds and oligarchs hand over millions, and get cuts in the top rate of tax in return. Meanwhile, Tory central office put out a graphic claiming, falsely, that Labour planned to scrap the benefits cap, a graphic which used as evidence - and you really couldn't make this up - an article by Ed Balls which included the words "We will keep the benefits cap". Today, the Tory Lie Machine is still firing away. They decided to issue a new set of claims about Labour's tax plans. The trouble is that their claims were a pack of lies. They claimed that we want to raise National Insurance - we don't. They claimed that we want to raise fuel duty - we don't, and in fact they're the ones who have added to the price of fuel by raising VAT to 20 per cent after promising not to. They claimed that we want to introduce a so-called "death tax" - we don't, it's not our policy, and Ed Balls made that very clear on Wednesday. What part of the words "it's not our policy" do the Tories not understand? The truth is that Labour wants to introduce a lower 10p starting rate of tax, to help around 24 million people on lower and middle incomes, funded by a mansion tax on homes worth £2 million or more. Most people think that's fair - so the Tories pretend it's not our policy. And we want to scrap David Cameron's hated Bedroom Tax, which hits hundreds of thousands of disabled people, funded in part by reversing George Osborne's tax cut for the hedge funds that give so much to the Tory Party. Most people think that's fair too - so the Tories ignore it. It's no wonder the Tories are desperately trying block Labour's proposal to allow the Office for Budget Responsibility to independently audit the spending and tax commitments in the manifestos of the main parties - they want to carry on making totally false claims, and ignore the truth. The Tory Lie Machine might not be a well-oiled piece of machinery, but it's the only tool they've got. We know they're desperate to distract attention from the fact that they've raised taxes 24 times, and that tax and benefit changes since 2010 will leave the average household £974 a year worse off by the time of the next election - while giving millionaires a tax cut. But when they choose to lie about Labour's plans, we're going to call them out on it.]]> NOW It's Official: Britons Are Worse Off Under the Tories tag:www.huffingtonpost.com,2014:/theblog//3.5005729 2014-03-20T19:00:00-04:00 2014-05-20T05:59:01-04:00 Chris Leslie http://www.huffingtonpost.com/chris-leslie/ George Osborne spoke for 55 minutes on Wednesday afternoon but, amid the bluster and the boasts, failed to mention the cost of living crisis even once. Instead, this out-of-touch Chancellor used the Budget to claim that everything is going smoothly, when we all know he has missed his targets on growth, living standards and on balancing the books by 2015. Back in the real world, there is no recovery at all for people on middle and low incomes. Wages are down £1,600 a year since David Cameron came to office yet there was nothing in this Budget for people struggling to make ends meet. In fact George Osborne's speech was noticeable for all the items it left out: no energy price freeze to help pensioners and families struggling with soaring bills, no help for families with rising childcare costs this side of the election, and no action to get young people without a job back into paid work. There was, however, a gift for the highest earners, who will still get a tax cut worth £3billion a year. And, quite incredibly, David Cameron and George Osborne have refused to rule out providing millionaires with another tax cut. It shatters the Tory myth that we are "all in it together". Nothing could be further from the truth. Indeed, the government's flagship rise in the personal allowance has been outweighed by 24 Tory tax rises since 2010. On Wednesday the complacent chancellor laughed his way through the Budget debate, seemingly untroubled by having presided over the slowest recovery for 100 years. His economic failure means people are being forced to dip into their savings simply in order to survive, and yesterday the independent forecaster laid out new figures to prove it. Consumer spending was the main driver of growth in 2013, with lower saving playing a bigger role than higher incomes, according to the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR). And, despite all the grandiose claims about this being a Budget for savers, the OBR's figures showed savings will actually fall over the next five years. So don't believe the hype in George Osborne's latest Budget - look at the evidence from recent history. It is not just the omnishambles Budget of 2012 that has gone down as notorious; remember also George Osborne's promise from 2011: to re-balance the economy with a "march of the makers". Since then manufacturing, construction and infrastructure investment are all down. Exports are falling rather than rising. It is only under Labour that Britain can earn its way to higher living standards for all, tackle the cost of cost-of-living crisis and get the deficit down in a fair way. A Labour government will freeze energy bills, expand free childcare for working parents, abolish the bedroom tax and help 24million workers with a lower 10p starting rate of income tax. We will create a paid starter job for every young person who has been out of work for more than 12 months - which they will have to take up or lose benefits - funded by a repeat of the tax on bank bonuses. We will cut business rates for small firms and reverse the tax cut for people earning more than £150,000. We will get the social security bill under control too, which is why we will support the welfare cap which Ed Miliband called for last year. And we will never divide the country with patronising posters about "helping hardworking people do more of the things they enjoy". It took months for the Tories to devise the Budget tax breaks on beer and bingo and just a few hours for Grant Shapps, their party chairman, to insult the people they expect will benefit. And it was by using the word "they" to talk about working people that the Tories showed once again they are totally out of touch. Labour will not separate the country into "them" and "us" but will govern for everyone. The Chancellor's failure on growth, on borrowing and on the cost of living crisis means hard working people are worse off under this government.]]> The Autumn Statement - A List of Failures Dressed Up as Victories tag:www.huffingtonpost.com,2013:/theblog//3.4396253 2013-12-05T19:00:00-05:00 2014-02-04T05:59:02-05:00 Chris Leslie http://www.huffingtonpost.com/chris-leslie/ All we heard in a speech of nearly an hour was more evidence of the cost of living crisis and a few misplaced boasts about the state of the economy, despite the fact that this is no recovery at all for millions of families. Working people are now on average over £1,600 a year worse off since David Cameron came to office but the Government still has no idea how to react to this. So instead of a serious plan to turn around Britons' declining living standards, this out-of-touch Chancellor presented us with a list of his failures dressed up as a victory. But his smoke and mirrors will not disguise the yawning gap between his claims and reality. George Osborne told us he had a "long-term plan for a grown-up country", but the Autumn Statement was dominated by his short-term politics. The simple fact is that people will be worse off in 2015 than when David Cameron came to office. Three years ago the Tory-led Government assured us the economy would have grown by 7.7% by now. In fact, it has grown by just 2.5% - far slower than America or Germany, which are up 6.4% and 4.4% respectively. George Osborne pledged to get the banks lending, but net lending to businesses is now more than £100billion lower than in May 2010. And used to say he would balance the books in 2015, but borrowing will be £79billion that year. The list goes on. Whether it is on his pledge to protect Britain's triple-A credit rating, or to get borrowing under control, this downgraded Chancellor has failed time and again. But he should not be allowed to hide from the reality of what has gone wrong on his watch. We have had the slowest economic recovery for 100 years. Prices have risen faster than wages for 40 out the last 41 months. Real wages are forecast to fall by 5.8% over the Parliament - meaning people will be worse off in 2015 than when David Cameron came to office. And the Prime Minister and Chancellor gave a huge tax to people earning more than £150,000. It is no wonder they have abandoned their incredible claim that "we are all in this together". On Thursdayy we saw the extent of the panic behind the government's policy announcements. After a month of u-turns, covering payday loans, a licensing regime for bankers and cigarette packaging, we finally discovered the coalition has a policy on energy costs. But it was nowhere near enough - just a hasty half-cooked measure which has only come after the leadership shown by Labour. Even after the Chancellor's changes to levies, energy bills are still rising and the average household will still be paying £70 more for their energy than last winter. Only Labour's price freeze, as well as action to reset the market to prevent energy companies overcharging, will ensure families, pensioners and businesses can afford to heat their home. The reality of this government is that it is only really spurred into action when it wants to dispel a bad headline, for example on business rates. The business rates discount does not cover all businesses, it excludes 320,000 factories, workshops and warehouses - exactly the small and medium manufacturers who are vital to driving an export-led recovery, and excludes another 340,000 businesses using office space such as hi-tech firms. Under Labour, 1.5million start-ups, workshops and shops would benefit from a cut and then a freeze in business rates. So forget George Osborne's political games and look at the facts of today. The Chancellor has failed on growth, on borrowing and on the cost of living crisis. Hard working people are worse off under the Tories.]]> Despite Positive GDP Figures, This Complacent Chancellor Should Not Be Relaxing tag:www.huffingtonpost.com,2013:/theblog//3.3652541 2013-07-25T10:30:00-04:00 2013-09-24T05:12:01-04:00 Chris Leslie http://www.huffingtonpost.com/chris-leslie/ George Osborne has wasted his first three years in 11 Downing Street and as a result the economy has flatlined, prices have risen much faster than wages and borrowing is billions higher than planned. By any measure - including the tests the Chancellor set for himself - this Government has failed. Since the Coalition's damaging Spending Review in the autumn of 2010, the UK economy has grown by just 1.7%. This compares to forecasts at the time that the economy would have grown by 6.9% by now. And Britain has experienced its slowest recovery for more than a century. Since that fateful Spending Review, the US economy has grown nearly three times faster than ours. Our economy remains 3.3% below its pre-crisis peak, while the US economy is now 3% above its pre-crisis peak. At the same time, long-term unemployment has reached its highest level since 1996, one in every five people aged 16 to 24 are out of work and the government is expected to borrow £245billion more than it planned. Simply to make up all the ground we have lost under David Cameron and George Osborne we would need growth of 5.3% a year, or 1.3% each quarter, over the next two years. So the complacent Chancellor should not be relaxing as he sets off for his summer holiday. Under his stewardship of the economy, family incomes are facing the longest squeeze since the 1870s and the gradual uptick in growth appears to be mainly helping people at the top of society. Indeed, the massive rise in financial sector bonuses to £4billion in April, because the City deferred payouts until the millionaires' tax cut kicked in, may go some way towards explain why total consumption has been higher in this quarter. Yet the bonus binge has been of no help to most ordinary working people. Since the 2010 general election, average pay has fallen by £1,350 a year in real terms, while the Tory-led coalition has handed millionaires an average tax cut of £100,000 a year. So there is still a huge amount of work for the Chancellor to do because, as the IMF has recently warned, the recovery remains "slow and fragile". It is not too late for the Chancellor to act and recognise more is needed. He should be bringing forward long-term infrastructure projects to create jobs and growth and secure the stronger recovery he choked off three years ago. The time has come to focus on the real economic needs of the many, not just the wealthiest few. That's why Ed Balls, the Shadow Chancellor, and former US Treasury Secretary Larry Summers have this week launched a Commission on Inclusive Prosperity. The Commission will look at the radical reforms that developed economies need to create more good jobs, especially for young people, as well as to raise education and skill levels, reform finance and support innovation and entrepreneurship. In Britain, Labour has set out how it would boost prosperity across the whole of society. We would help families on middle and low incomes with a 10p starting rate of tax, paid for by a mansion tax. We also would introduce a compulsory jobs guarantee for young people, paid for by a bank bonus tax, to help get the benefits bill down. And we would bring forward infrastructure investment now. If the £10billion boost recommended by the IMF was invested in housing we could build hundreds of thousands of affordable homes and support major job creation. We want to see a sustainable recovery for the many, rather than just the few at the top.]]> Britain Needs a Plan for Economic Growth tag:www.huffingtonpost.com,2013:/theblog//3.3160717 2013-04-26T04:09:16-04:00 2013-06-25T05:12:01-04:00 Chris Leslie http://www.huffingtonpost.com/chris-leslie/ This continues the overall picture of a flatlining economy in Britain ever since George Osborne's last Spending Review. In fact, this is now the weakest recovery for over 100 years. The longer this stagnation continues then the longer living standards will continue to fall and the more long-term damage will be done, so the Chancellor urgently needs to draw up a coherent plan for growth. While the services sector helped drag the economy back into positive territory output in the construction and manufacturing sectors is still worryingly weak. Construction activity alone plunged by 2.5% in the first quarter and manufacturing by 0.3% - despite George Osborne's fast-forgotten pledge to lead a "march of the makers". Since the Spending Review of October 2010, our economy has grown by just 1.1%, compared to the 6% forecast at the time by the Office for Budget Responsibility. We have been left trailing in the wake of Germany and the US, which have grown by three and four per cent respectively since then. After nearly three years of stagnation it is no surprise that the IMF said last week the government is "playing with fire" by pushing ahead with their austerity plan while growth is stuck at such a low rate. So it is time we saw decisive action from the Chancellor to deliver a strong and sustained recovery - including a major programme of affordable house-building and a compulsory jobs guarantee for the long-term unemployed. Instead we have seen George Osborne swing from the omnishambles Budget of 2012 to the 'do nothing' budget of 2013. Last month the Chancellor stood outside 11 Downing Street and held aloft his red box - but it turned out there was virtually nothing inside it. Even his party colleagues realise the Chancellor has been distracted by party political games when he should have been concentrating on rebuilding the economy. Just today the Tory backbencher Brian Binley admitted that the government had "been found wanting" over growth and that we could "have sailed to safer, calmer and more prosperous waters had we followed an alternative course". The result of this lack of growth is that deficit reduction plan has ground to a halt - with borrowing set to be £245billion higher than planned to pay for the mounting costs of economic failure - and Britain has suffered downgrades from two ratings agencies, despite George Osborne setting the retention of the AAA rating as his number one test of economic success or failure. The result of these economic struggles is more pain for ordinary Britons and businesses. Prices are rising faster than wages and tax and benefit changes since 2010 mean the average family will be £891 worse off this year, according to the independent IFS. Yet the Chancellor is handing millionaires an average tax cut of £100,000 a year. What we need instead is a lower 10p starting rate of tax to ease the squeeze on millions of people on middle and low incomes. George Osborne has spent three years with his head stuck in the sand and the fear is that he will now complacently ignore calls to take action to kickstart the economy and strengthen it for the long-term. Britain needs a plan for growth, not just a steady slide into a lost decade that drags down real wages and living standards.]]> Now It Is Official: You're Worse Off Under the Tories tag:www.huffingtonpost.com,2013:/theblog//3.2918517 2013-03-20T17:16:25-04:00 2013-05-20T05:12:02-04:00 Chris Leslie http://www.huffingtonpost.com/chris-leslie/ On economic growth, on maintaining Britain's AAA credit rating and on his key pledge to balance the books by 2015, he has failed each and every time. Instead, borrowing will be £245billion more than planned as the costs of economic failure mount and the Chancellor has again put off the date when the national debt will start to come down. And today, finally, we had the grim confirmation from the government's official forecaster that the British people will be worse off in 2015 than they were in 2010. Now it is official: you're worse off under the Tories. From the working families who have to wait until 2015 for help with the costs of childcare, to a 2.4% drop in real wages over the lifetime of this parliament, life is getting more expensive and more difficult for most Britons. There is a small group, however, who will be better off under George Osborne's plans - the 13,000 millionaires who will be handed a tax cut worth an average of £100,000 in just a few weeks' time. The Chancellor and David Cameron had one last chance to rethink their flagship giveaway to the richest people in society but they stubbornly decided to plough on. This Budget gave us more of the same failing plan, with borrowing higher, growth lower again and almost nothing to kickstart the economy. George Osborne likes to claim he is helping hard workers by raising the level at which people start to pay tax - but he is giving with one hand and taking away with the other. This April's increase in the personal allowance won't make up for what families have already lost in terms of tax and benefit changes. A family with one earner and two children on £20,000 will be £381 a year worse off in 2013-14 and £600 a year worse off in 2014-15, according to figures from the House of Commons library. Much of the damage was done in October 2010 - and Britain has never recovered. Since the Spending Review, Britain's economy has grown by just 0.7% compared to the 5.3% forecast at the time. Only three other G20 countries have grown more slowly than the UK in that time. And today we received even more bad news. The Office for Budget responsibility halved its growth forecast for this year to 0.6%, and cut to 1.8% its estimate for next year. In fact we have had the slowest recovery for 100 years. Despite all the claims made by the Chancellor and the Prime Minister, this economic failure means borrowing is rising rather than falling. They are taking on more debt to fill in the holes in their plan. Borrowing is now forecast to be £245bn more than planned at the time of the spending review - excluding the one off transfers of the Royal Mail Pension Fund and Asset Purchase Facility. The government will not "balance the books" by 2015 as David Cameron promised. National debt as a percentage of GDP is not now forecast to start falling until 2017/18 - further breaking one of the Government's fiscal rules. Yet it was only a year ago that George Osborne claimed we would "earn our way out" of trouble. Today he put his faith in a programme to help people aspiring to buy a home to get enough cash for a deposit. We will look at the detail of Help to Buy but it falls far short of what Labour has been proposing on housebuilding over the last two years. And if the government's track record is anything to go by then we should not hold out too much hope either. The New Homes Bonus announced in 2010 was supposed to unleash growth and build at least 400,000 additional homes but it has failed to deliver. Shockingly, housing starts fell by 11% last year to below 100,000 - less than half the number required to meet housing need. Similarly, David Cameron has claimed the New Buy scheme would assist 100,000 people to buy their own home. But so far the scheme has helped just 1,500 people to make a purchase - hitting just 1.5% of the target. Instead Labour has called on the government to use the money raised from the 4G mobile spectrum auction to build 100,000 affordable homes to stimulate the economy and help tackle the housing crisis. We also want to see a repeat of the bank bonus tax - on top of the bank levy - to pay for a guaranteed job for every young person out of work for a year or more. These are some of the measures that will help get the country back on its feet. Yet when you look at the total package delivered by the Chancellor a few hours ago, it is another deeply disappointing day for anyone who hoped for a fairer and more prosperous Britain.]]> Another Missed Opportunity by George Osborne tag:www.huffingtonpost.com,2012:/theblog//3.2249431 2012-12-06T06:13:36-05:00 2013-02-05T05:12:01-05:00 Chris Leslie http://www.huffingtonpost.com/chris-leslie/ He was forced to break his promises to balance the books and get the debt down by 2015. We now face a shrinking economy this year and an extension of the era of austerity to 2018. And it is millions of working people on modest and middle incomes, who have already seen the costs of food and fuel continue to rise while wages are squeezed, who will pay the price for this failure. George Osborne claims he is targeting the work-shy, yet a one-earner family on £20,000 with two children will lose £279 a year from all the changes happening in April - on top of the cost of higher VAT. And at the same time the Tories and Lib Dems are giving a £3 billion tax cut to the richest people in the country - worth over £100,000 for 8,000 people earning more than £1 million and disproving the government myth that we are "all in it together". Despite all of George Osborne's rhetoric today about Britain being on "the right track" the hard journey ahead has just got even longer. The Chancellor has broken his promises on borrowing - the main measure on which he has staked his credibility countless times. The government is set to borrow £212 billion more than they expected - and more than the plans it inherited and condemned at the time for not going far enough. It meant George Osborne was finally forced to admit the Government would not meet his fiscal rule to get the national debt falling as a proportion of GDP by 2015. This marked a moment of humiliation for a man who put his faith in the doctrine of "expansionary fiscal contraction". There are several reasons for this, but central to the problem is the fact that after 31 months in office the coalition still has no plan for how to create jobs and stimulate growth. In fact the economy is due to shrink again this year, George Osborne admitted yesterday, and growth forecasts have been downgraded again for next year and every year up to 2016. Ministers fail to realise that by making deep spending cuts and tax rises and failing to increase demand in the private sector they drag down growth and risk setting Britain's economy on the road to international irrelevance. Over the last two years Britain has grown by just 0.6% compared to the 4.6% the government promised, 3.6% in Germany and 4.1% in America. It makes for a stark contrast to October 2010, when a brash Osborne told the world: "What you see today, in an uncertain global economic environment, is Britain growing, growing strongly." We are falling behind in the global race. Of course what matters is not just Britain's place in the world, or on a league table, but the cost in homes and on high streets around the nation. A weak growth rate is the manifestation of lower consumer spending and falling sales for Britain's small businesses, which employ around 14million people. And it was only last week that ministers were forced to admit their much-hyped Welfare to Work programme was proving worse than doing nothing at all, with only one in 28 of unemployed people referred being able to find a job for six months or more. Over the last two and a half years we have become used to George Osborne's spin and attacks on his critics but Labour has been clear about what it wants - a plan for growth based on bringing forward infrastructure investment, a temporary VAT cut and a bank bonus tax to fund a jobs guarantee for young people. This is what a One Nation approach to the economy would look like, rather than a tax cut for millionaires. Yesterday was a missed opportunity for George Osborne. He showed the world he isn't on the side of hard-working Britons, he doesn't have a plan for growth and he can't control borrowing. It is a terrible indictment of his time running the economy.]]>

Nice case
This review is from: SILVERSTONE Black Aluminum front panel, 0.8 mm SECC body GD01B-R-USB3.0 ATX Media Center / HTPC Case
Pros: Sleek modern looking case that fits in well with other home theater equipment. Plenty of space for HDD's or SSD's, Plenty of options for fans, Nice aluminum front
Cons: Verily fit in my home theater cabinet( be sure to measure the depth of your cabinet plus the space needed for cords connecting in the back, I had to drill holes in the back so it wouldn't pinch my power and HDMI cable).

Works when it's done but a pain to set up
This review is from: SILVERSTONE Black Aluminum front panel, 0.8 mm SECC body GD01B-R-USB3.0 ATX Media Center / HTPC Case
Pros: Looks very sleek on the outside, just like a HiFi component, fits very well on my rack along with the receiver etc.
Cons: DVD bay module has space for two drives but only top one can be used realistically. The bottom of the bay module presses onto or touches ATX motherboard's power connectors. Taking an egg off for that -- in a space-saving case like this the manufacturer could have made the DVD bay module splittable so that bottom half could be taken out to save space
Other Thoughts: Space is tight. I mean, VERY tight if you use a full ATX motherboard which is why I got the case in the first place (for Asus P6X58D)

If the thought of being presented with a multi-page wine list literally drives you to drink with its scary-sounding words like "appellation," "biodynamic" and "decantation," have no fear — you're not alone. Even the pros know there's always something new to learn. After all, comedian George Carlin once asked, "What wine goes with Captain Crunch?"
That's where our local experts come in. We gathered them here to give you some dos and don'ts for ordering wine out, whether there's help or you're left to your own devices.
"Don't be swayed by arbitrary scores, advertising or a notion that the only real wine is big, rich reds that will stain your teeth. Also, price does not always translate to quality."

2008, the UK will launch a hot mission into one of the world's deepest
and unexplored volcanic ridges—a region
known as the Cayman Trough. The trough lies between the Cayman Islands
and Jamaica in the Caribbean Sea. It was produced by the Caribbean
tectonic plate pulling away from the North American plate.
Over the course of two month-long expeditions, the team
expects to map the entire trench. The team will also sample and analyze
the area's unique, mineral-rich waters, which are produced by
hydrothermal vents, and it will catalog the species that live at these
depths. Scientists predict that temperatures in these waters are 10
times hotter than the average summer day in the United States. The
special combination of super hot temperatures, total darkness, and
crushing pressure has likely given rise to numerous unique and
undiscovered species.
To do the job, the team is relying on a robotic submarine, an
autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) referred to as Autosub6000. The
sub is 5.5 meters (about 18 feet) long and is equipped with a high-performance
GPS unit. Joining the AUV will be Isis, a remotely operated vehicle
(ROV) that can operate at a depth of 6,000 meters (nearly four miles)
and grab animal specimens.
Hydrothermal vents were first documented about 30 years ago. They
are associated with volcanic activity, where water is drawn through
the sea-floor cracks, superheated, and then ejected through vent openings.
Organisms discovered around these vents are eye-opening examples
of biodiversity, especially as the ecosystem relies on chemosynthesis
rather than photosynthesis due to the lack of sunlight at these depths.
During this lesson, you will dive in
to investigate how humans explore these depths. You will also get a
glimpse at what they have, so far, discovered there.
with an overview of Earth's dynamic ocean floor at the NOAA
Learning Objects site. View Lesson 2—Mid-Ocean Ridges,
and make
sure you can hear the audio. This video explains how ridges, like that
within the Cayman Trough, are formed and why they are hot and harsh
environments. When you are done, click the tab to view the Global Impact video.
Next, complete the Mid-Ocean Ridge Activity, in which you
will label the continents, label the ridges, and then identify the
age of the crust. Once you have finished labeling the map layers, answer
the questions below the map. In the Sea-floor
Spreading Activity, read the introduction, examine the diagram,
and then answer the questions.
From the NOAA
Learning Objects index, View Lesson 5 —Chemosynthesis
and Hydrothermal Vent Life. Play the Lesson video and then the Global
Impact video. In these movies, you will find out what chemosynthesis
is and how it can sustain life in ways similar to photosynthesis in the absence
of sunlight.
Complete the activities Hydrothermal Vent Food Web and Evolutionary
What chemicals exist in the environment, and how do the organisms use
them? Why are scientists interested in how organisms there process the
chemical-rich waters? Why, exactly, does the ecosystem's food web start
with bacteria? What are the missing puzzle pieces in the Caribbean, the
Chile Rise, and other key spots around the globe?

Discipline in Soviet Schools:
The Observations of an American
Teaching in the USSR
Kenneth Cassie
Discipline is a product of the sum total of the educative efforts, including the teaching process, the process of political education, the process of character shaping, the process of collision -- of facing and settling conflicts in the collective, the process of friendship and trust, and the whole educational process in its entirety.
A. S. Makarenko ( 1965, p. 56)
Three years ago, as a guest of the Soviet Ministry of Education, I taught in two Soviet schools -- Special School No. 157 in Leningrad, and Experimental School No. 4 in Moscow. My assignment in each school lasted six weeks. Both schools are ten-year schools (desyatiletki) and are attended by students from age seven to sixteen. The very titles of these schools suggest that they are not what the Russians sometimes call "schools for the masses" (massovye shkoly).
These special schools differ from the schools for the masses, or ordinary schools, in two ways. Specifically, they provide a nine-year course in English. Other special schools specialize in German, Spanish, Japanese, and so forth. In addition, children whom I asked, although I took no formal census, had parents who were professionals or white collar workers.
Since my return to America a paradox has disturbed me. In our society, where we claim respect for the individual and his rights, only four states fully outlaw corporal punishment. Yet in the Soviet Union, a nation scored for its brutal penal system and severe limitations on what we in the West consider essential civil rights, corporal punishment is illegal and is frowned upon in the homes and schools.

I also tried to end explorer.exe and restart the task, but this didn't help at all. I also tried to set the resolution on 16x16 and 32x32 but both didn't work.

Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation offers reward for weapon in death of Weleetka girls
WELEETKA — The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation is offering a $5,000 reward for one of the guns used in the slaying of two Weleetka girls, and officials say it could be evidence that could help solve the case.
The gun is a Glock .40-caliber model 22 handgun with the serial number EKG463US, agency spokeswoman Jessica Brown said.
"I'm very excited," Okfuskee County Sheriff Jack Choate said. "I think if we can recover this weapon it might be what breaks open this case."
Whoever has the gun is not suspected of any crimes and likely doesn't know it was used in the girls' killings, Brown said.
"We have been running leads for three years," Brown said. "This is the result of great detective work and investigations."
After the 2008 killings, investigators began ballistics tests to determine more about the gun that fired the .40-caliber shell casings found at the scene.
Investigators, using tips and other information, were able to come up with a serial number, Choate said.
By now, the gun could have been sold one or more times.
Joe Mosher, great uncle of victim Taylor Paschal-Placker, said the family is cautiously optimistic.
"If they know the serial number, I think it means they know something more," Mosher said. "We're hoping something comes of this."
Leads are coming in daily to the Okfuskee County sheriff's office, and Brown said agents regularly get tips. OSBI investigators continue to explore leads and are looking at several suspects.
Choate said he's confident the killers are still in the area.
Portions of the OSBI investigation file in November were given to an FBI behavioral analysis unit focusing on crimes against child victims, including abductions, homicides and sexual victimization.
Brown said she couldn't release any information about the profile reports other than to say "they were helpful."
The guns
On Sept. 20, OSBI officials said they were looking for a gun believed to have been sold after it was used in the commission of a crime. At the time, they did not mention a connection with the Weleetka case.
A $1,000 reward was offered for information leading to the gun, but that generated no leads, Brown said.
Two separate guns were used to kill Skyla Whitaker, 11, and Taylor Paschal-Placker, 13, on June 8, 2008. The two best friends were shot multiple times as they walked down a rural dirt road four miles northeast of Weleetka. Investigators said they appeared to have walked to the bridge and were returning home when they were killed.
Shell casings but no weapons were found at the scene. Brown declined to release information about the second gun.
An autopsy report does not list the caliber or types of bullets found; but the report indicates two different bullets, a medium-size copper-jacketed bullet and a small-size copper-coated bullet, were
The report showed Taylor was shot five times: three times in the face, once in the groin and in her right hand. The shot to Taylor's hand could have been one of the same shots that struck her in the head. Two of the shots were ruled potentially fatal.
Skyla was shot a total of eight times, including once in the neck, and seven spread out widely around the arms and torso.
Medical examiners found no evidence of sexual trauma. Gunshots from both guns were found on both girls.
Information, rewards
Anyone with information about the deaths of Taylor Paschal-Placker and Skyla Jade Whitaker can call the OSBI at (800) 522-8017 or the Okfuskee County sheriff's office at (918) 623-1122.
A reward of up to $160,000 is being offered for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for the slayings.

Exchange Market Pressure and Monetary Policy: Evidence from Pakistan
The study employs Girton and Roper (1977) measure of exchange market pressure—sum of exchange rate depreciation and foreign reserves outflow, to examine the interaction between exchange market pressure and monetary variables, viz. domestic credit (Reserve Money) and interest rate. Evidence from impulse response functions suggests that domestic credit has remained the dominant tool of monetary policy for managing exchange market pressure. The increase in domestic credit upon increase in exchange market pressure (during 1991–98) is imprudent. The result suggests that fiscal needs/growth objective might have dominated the external account considerations during the span. Post 9/11 there is evidence of sterilised intervention in forex market. Interest rate has also weakly served as the tool of monetary policy during the hay days of foreign currency deposits (1991–98). The finding implies that for interest rate to work as tool of monetary policy vis-a-vis exchange market pressure a reasonable degree of capital mobility is called for.

At 4th level I imagine his total wealth will be around 7000 gp. His +1 double hackbut will have cost him 6300gp, plus there's the amount he's spent on ammo. He can't have much else...

You bring up a good point about getting RR(DH) for his character. I know he's been playing in adventures that are above his tier to get as much GP as he could. He did not have all his chronicle sheets with him, so next time he comes to a PFS session, I'm going to audit his sheets to make sure all the gold and items match up.
I had a player show up recently with the following (seemingly broken) build, but there has be something wrong with this one that I missed - it was early. I am also admittedly not as up on my Gunslinger rules as I should be. Please help me break down what is incorrect about this build. RAW answers only.
Human Gunslinger (Musket Master), Level 4
+1 Double Hackbut as the primary weapon, using primarily Alchemical Ammunition
Feats: Point Blank, Precise Shot, Rapid Shot, Rapid Reload
With the Rapid Reload, alchemical ammo and the Fast Musket deed at 3rd level, reloading is reduced from a full-round action per barrel to a FREE ACTION.
With Rapid Shot, that's two attacks per round doing 2d12 damage and hitting TOUCH AC within 50'.
The description of the hackbut clearly states that it is on a two-wheeled carriage. There is no indication given of whether or not it can be set up early and pulled along like a little red wagon weapons platform, nor whether or not it would slow or inconvenience its wielder in any way if moved in this manner (it only weighs 18 pounds - not that hard to pick up and set down somewhere else). Does the assembled weapon occupy the same space or take up its own 5' square on the battlegrid? What is to prevent a PC from pre-assembling this and popping it into and out of a bag of holding to get around the full-round action set up time?
With 4d12 damage to touch AC every round at 4th level, not much of anyone else gets to participate other than to heal and soak up damage for the gunslinger. I know there has to be some key thing that I'm missing (other than GM fiat - please let everyone at the table play), but I am too tired to find it now. Help from those with many levels in Rules Lawyer is much appreciated.

"The City of Gyoza" Utsunomiya by traveldream
Utsunomiya Travel Guide: 25 reviews and 61 photos
Located approximately 3-hour ride north off Tokyo, in Tochigi Prefecture, Utsunomiya is famous throughout Japan for its gyoza, a kind of meat and vegetable dumpling. There are many gyoza shops and restaurants scattered in the city. Utsunomiya is not a big city but to me it's just a nice place. The city is clean and neat, unlike big cities. The outdoors along the river uptown are parks, fishing spots, and other outdoor recreational activity spots. Big companies such as Canon has its factory in Utsunomiya. Even the industrial zone is neat and clean. Downtown there are department stores, restaurants and cafes. JR Utsunomiya Station is located in the city center, where rapid trains and shinkansen operate on Utsunomiya Line.
Utsunomiya is passed by River Kinu (Kinugawa), which comes from Nikko, a place that has onsen (hot spring), national park with lake and falls (such as Lake Chuzenji, Kegon Falls, Ryuzu Falls) and historical buildings including Toshogu Shrine where the tomb of the shogun Ieyasu Tokugawa is located. Uptown Utsunomiya there is a place which used to be the location of a castle called Tobiyama. It's now a park open free for public. Located up hill, we can see the view to Utsunomiya city with River Kinu in front and Mt. Nantai in the background.
- Pros:Nice place, nice air
- Cons:It's Japan...expensive

ISLAMABAD, June 8: In a comprehensive and wide-ranging suggestion aimed at discouraging extravagance, show of wealth, power and pageantry in future elections, the Supreme Court ordered the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) on Friday to monitor election expenses from the day of its announcement.
In its judgment the court issued after deciding a number of petitions challenging the present electioneering practices, the commission was ordered to devise a mechanism obliging a candidate to justify the expenses he incurred during electioneering.
Authored by Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry, the verdict decided a set of petitions and suggestions put forth by political parties — Watan Party Pakistan, Pakistan Tehrik-i-Insaaf, Pakistan Muslim League-N, Pakistan Muslim League-Q, Muttahida Qaumi Movement, Awami National Party and Jamaat-i-Islami — and representatives of civil society and academicians.
The petitioners have requested the court to declare that the prevailing electioneering practices involving wealth, power and influence are against the mandate of the Constitution which requires free, fair, just and honest elections on a level-playing field.
They also sought a pronouncement that elections cannot be held in a fair and impartial manner without remedying the problems relating to the present electioneering practices in accordance with the mandate of the Constitution.
The court ruled that the ECP should prepare a declaration form on which a candidate could specify the account number in a scheduled bank in which the amount election expenses would be deposited. All transactions relating to election expenses should be made only through the specified account.
"In the 'First Past the Post' system of election, the winning candidate does not necessarily receive an absolute majority of all votes cast and, therefore, such a candidate does not command the majority of the votes polled. As such, the system of 'First Past the Post' violates the principle of majority," the 87-page verdict said.
It asked the ECP to explore ways of introducing an appropriate system of election including 'run-off election' to ensure true representation of the people and rule of the majority in parliament and provincial assemblies.
The court ordered the ECP to strictly implement all election laws in discharge of Article 218(3) of the Constitution and Representation of the People Act and other laws/rules.
"The commission is obliged to ensure that all elections witness a substantial participation of the electorate and take all necessary steps to make voting compulsory in Pakistan. The ECP is empowered to not only check illegal actions relating to the election (violating the limits set for campaign finance) or corrupt practices (bribery), but also review all election activities, including Jalsas, Jaloos, (corner and public meetings) and use of loudspeakers. The commission is also empowered to take pre-emptive measures to ensure that the spirit of democracy and 'fairness, justness and honesty' of elections is fully observed," the verdict said.
It asked the ECP to hold meetings with candidates and apprise them of relevant laws/rules and receive from them statements of expenses on a weekly basis by engaging election staff and carrying out random inspection at different places.
All transactions relating to election expenses should be entered into with GST-registered firms.
To facilitate voters, the verdict said, the number of polling stations should be increased and these should not be at a distance of more than two kilometres from the residences of voters. Routes of transport to be arranged by the commission should be widely advertised in print and electronic media for information of the general public.
Referring to the handing over of "Perchis" (voting number) to the voters at election camps, the verdict said the ECP should take steps to provide the requisite information to the voters by other means. Setting up of election camps near polling stations should be banned forthwith and the ECP might manage to dispatch extracts from the voters' list in the name of one or more persons living in a house at least seven days before the polling day by post, or to save the postage by annexing such extracts with any of the utility bill.
The verdict said only such campaign activities ought to be permitted which fulfilled the purpose of the election campaign and within the reach of the common man. It recalled that the petitioners had recommended certain activities like door-to-door campaign, manifesto and canvassing on state television and radio by candidates. These should be encouraged by the ECP on the basis of their merit.
"To ensure fair and transparent election, if need be, instead of involving the employees of provincial governments, the employees of federal government/autonomous organisations/agencies, including the armed and para-armed forces, may be instructed to carry out stipulated functions at the polling stations," the court said.
Referring to computerised balloting, the court said it expected the ECP to take effective steps at an appropriate time. And to achieve the goal of free, fair, honest and just elections, the commission should accurately prepare and revise the electoral roll through credible and independent agencies.
The court ordered the ECP to undertake door-to-door checking of voters' lists and complete the process of updating/revising the electoral roll by engaging, if needed, the army and Frontier Corps to ensure transparency.
"Corrective measures are required to be taken by the commission to ensure that election disputes are resolved at the earliest. The ECP may also consider establishing a panel of lawyers well conversant with election laws at the state expense to provide free legal services to the marginalised segments of society," the verdict said.

My problem started since I installed Service Pack 2 on my Windows XP system. As per configuration my system is running on Intel P4 3Ghz CPU, Gigabyte 8KNXP rev2 Mobo, 300MB RAIDed (stripe) C:, 300MB RAIDed (stripe) D:, Radeon 9800Pro VC, Antec 450W PSU, 2 x 512MB DDR400 Ram, NEC DVDRW-DL. I am using this since several months with Nero as my one of the important professional tool and never had any problem. Two weeks ago I installed SP2 and since then whenever I try using Nero, I get Blue Scree. On the restart when I check Event Viewer, this is what I get listed over there:
Event viewer entry: The computer has rebooted from a bugcheck. The bugcheck was: 0x00000019 (0x00000020, 0x85f6c940, 0x85f6c9f0, 0x1a16000a). A dump was saved in: C:\WINDOWS\Minidump\Mini021905-09.dmp.
This happens each time I launch Nero, remember this was not the problem before installing Nero. Apart from this, another problem I am facing is, no matter I use Nero or not, atleast once a day I get Bluescreen on its own. Does anyone else thinks the problem is because of Nero? I doubt because I have one more system running with XP and Nero and I already SPE installed on the same but never had any such problem. Its been a month I updated the same with Service Pack 2 and use Nero as well, fortunately no BSOD so far.
I dont think it can be due to drivers as well because while troubleshooting these BSODs I also updated entire system driver but the problem remains. Do anyone of you have any idea what could be the problem and how can I fix the same? Is reverting back and uninstalling SP2 is the only solution for this?

Fans go the extra mile to see Clarke play
Thousands of fans will pour into State Fair Arena this week to get a glimpse of Verdigris guard Rotnei Clarke before his high school career comes to an end. None of those fans, however, is more devoted than Erin Whitlock and her family. Whitlock, who is from Clayton, and her daughters, Bailey Scarberry and Macy Parks, have traveled across Oklahoma on numerous occasions to see Clarke throughout the postseason. They have ventured to Verdigris, Sperry, Skiatook and now the State Fairgrounds to watch Clarke. Each game is more than a six-hour round trip from Clayton, and after Thursday, Whitlock and her girls will have spent more than 21 hours in the car, traveling more than 1,300 miles. "I'd go to Canada to watch him if I could," Scarberry, Whitlock's oldest daughter said. Before Verdigris' area finals matchup with Adair, during which Clarke broke the Oklahoma career scoring record, Whitlock waited in line for more than five hours to get a front-row seat to witness history. "I got the seat I wanted," Whitlock said. "I wanted to sit where I could best see him break the record. I took pictures and got it on video." The family first saw Clarke at the Eastern Junior College tournament in Wilburton, where Class A Clayton upset Verdigris 71-66. Scarberry, 12, begged her mom to take her to see more of Clarke. "Finally, she gave in," Scarberry said. Scarberry had a T-shirt made before the Adair game that featured a picture of her and Clarke on the front, and five reasons why Clarke is her "basketball hero" on the back. The shirt reads: 1. Positive role model; 2. Team Player; 3. Self Discipline; 4. Excellent attitude; 5. Gives 115 percent on the court, with 15 in red numbers in honor of Clarke's jersey number. After the game, Clarke returned the favor, giving Scarberry a pair of autographed basketball shoes. "I was speechless," Scarberry said. "I couldn't believe it." Whitlock said she doesn't mind the long road trips, high gas prices (about $140 to travel to see Clarke in four games) and time away from home, because Clarke serves as a role model for her daughters. "He is such a great player, and an awesome kid," Whitlock said. "He never once has had a bad attitude or rolled his eyes. He stays positive. He stays humble." Whitlock said the traveling is unlikely to stop when Clarke heads to Arkansas play for the Razorbacks. "Fayetteville is actually closer for us than Oklahoma City," Whitlock said. "I plan to follow him. I don't know if we will get season tickets, but we are going to look into it."
