Contact the Elderly-Maidenhead Need YOUR Help!
Contact the Elderly Maidenhead has been running for 15 years taking out 6-8 local elderly people once a month, 12 months a year, to tea parties. Their guests are aged from 75 into the 100's, and local family hosts welcome the group into their homes for the tea party. This regular monthly outing makes a huge difference to the life of an isolated person and gives them something to look forward to. Often this is the only social outing in their lives.
Their group needs a group Co-ordinator/driver for a few hours a month and more drivers to drive the elderly guests one Sunday afternoon a month. Can you make a difference to elderly people in your community and enjoy a very happy Sunday afternoon?

Treatment worse than the disease
THANK you, Julia Medew (''Patient power troubles GPs'', News, 30/12), for exposing our corporatised health system. Patients are often disempowered, and highly medicated patients do not have the agency to effectively express their concerns to doctors. My hospital experience was more debilitating than the illness I received treatment for.
Private patient advocates are the perfect remedy for our sick hospital systems.
SAMANTHA PARKER, Park Orchards.
Self-help works
HAVING being involved in support groups for patients suffering with schizophrenia, and more recently prostate cancer, I would strongly recommend anyone suffering one of these serious illnesses contact the relevant support group. There they can get the knowledge from people who have been through, or are going through, the situation with which they are confronted. Most, but not all, doctors are unable to give all the time and answers that are necessary to inform patients.
JOHN LEE, Geelong
Make it free
AUSTRALIA has a multitude of free, government-funded and non-profit disability advocacy services but has not one dedicated government or non-profit advocacy service for the struggling health system.
As a professional disability advocate I have helped a terrified, non-verbal young man who was denied hospital visits by his parents because he couldn't give the verbal consent required by ''policy''. I've also helped a child forced to enter and leave a hospital through the back emergency exit because his atypical physical appearance ''upset the other patients''. These people could access help because they met the criteria for ''disability advocacy''. Most patients do not.
JEN MORRIS, Park Orchards
More power
ALL power to private patient advocate Claire Crocker. I hope she represents carers as well, and that for those carers who can't afford her services some other form of individual advocacy can be initiated. During my time as a carer, I found specialist nurses were excellent in communicating, but medical practitioners were not. Such non-communication can be considered and persistent: exclusion of the carer from consultations, choosing not to request the patient's permission to give information to the carer, failing to take phone calls. Also, in my experience, complaints by a carer to the medical regulatory authority are futile, no matter how demonstrably poor the communication and how numerous the apparent failings to comply with the medical code of conduct.
ROBYN WALTON, Toorak
Choosing the best
CLAIRE Crocker allegedly helped a patient avoid surgery by requesting the services of ''the best surgeon and physiotherapist in the area''. Did the surgeon and physiotherapist have a sign on their waiting room wall to that effect?
CHRISTINE HURWOOD, Newport
Please, not more
THERE are plenty of qualified professional people in the health area to administer proper care. We do not need another private non-medical establishment at increased costs. It is bad enough that the private health insurers are almost running the show.
ANNE FLANAGAN, Box Hill North
Stroke screening a valid tool
SCREEN for Life understands debate about screenings for people at risk for stroke and cardiovascular disease who are yet to develop symptoms, but evidence supports such screening.
Since 1993 we have screened 7 million people in the US, UK and Ireland for risk factors known to be linked to heart attack, stroke, abdominal aortic aneurisms and peripheral arterial disease. Stroke was the third-biggest killer of Australians in 2010 and a leading cause of disability. Most stroke victims have no symptoms before the stroke, even though the disease has usually been developing over some years.
We offer checks for risk factors before symptoms occur. Where there are abnormal findings, clients are directed to their GP.
We can do more to fight stroke and vascular disease. Early screening is part of the solution. It is a tool, not a threat.
TIM CAJKA, country manager, Screen for Life
Too many pets
OVERSUPPLY of pets is a national disgrace and needs a national solution (The Age, 1/1/2013). Publicity about the problem and support for low-cost pet desexing schemes are needed.
If the many sad, lonely, overweight, neglected pets are any indication, euthanased ones are the lucky ones, but we need legislation and programs to stop so many being born.
Cutting the domestic animal birth rate would minimise the cruelty and neglect that come from oversupply.
Legislation should ensure pets cannot be sold unless desexed. Currently only animal shelters ensure this vital act.
PATRICIA FARNELL, Warburton
Frozen in indecision
AN independent review of the nation's 10,000-strong Department of Immigration has found senior executives are frightened to make a decision, which might explain why thousands of overseas visitors on expired visas remain in our country and apparently are not seriously sought out.
JOHN DOBINSON, North Balwyn
Linguistic gymnastics
IN BLAMING Tony Abbott for Nicola Roxon's proposed ''offend-me-not'' freedom of speech restrictions, Dirk Biddle (Letters, 30/12) displays the impressive mental agility available only to a few even among the rusted on.
Using this kind of thinking would have seen Craig Thomson rewarded for his services to the union movement with a seat in the Federal Parliament.
Oh wait …
DAVID CARLYON, Sandringham
Mental illness link
RESEARCH reported in The Sunday Age (News, 30/12) reveals a link between illicit drug use and an increase in the rapidity of the onset of various mental illnesses. This does not indicate a causal link, but rather an increased likelihood, for those predisposed, to suffer from a mental illness at an earlier age if they engage in illicit drug use, with the risk being heightened when multiple substances are used.
This research has been released at a key point in the Victorian Government alcohol and other drug (AOD) policy cycle, with substantial reform about to sweep the AOD treatment sector.
This juncture provides an opportunity to focus on highly effective initiatives so the AOD treatment sector can work with at-risk young people to reduce the prevalence and harm associated with drug use.
SAM BIONDO, Victorian Alcohol and Drug Association, Collingwood
Refine fat message
FIGHTING obesity and the promotion of healthy eating feature prominently in The Sunday Age (30/12). Addressing these problems, as well as environment problems, requires simple and clear messages - the same way the traditional healthy Greek / Mediterranean diet has been practised through the consumption of unprocessed, unrefined and unpackaged food, mainly of the season. The best approach is to, a) ban food advertisements that by nature and intent highlight advantages and downplay and ignore negatives and hidden complexities, and b) introduce higher taxes for unnecessarily processed, refined and packaged foods.
MARK DYMIOTIS, Hampton
Rights violated
BELGIUM is another country and they do things differently there. Scientologists in Belgium read about [prosecutors bringing criminal charges against the church] in the press before receiving any kind of official notification, in violation of their rights (The Sunday Age, 30/12).
They still have not been formally notified so they don't know the extent of the charges or the specific accusations.
The Church of Scientology is recognised as a religion in countries all over Europe and the world. Two unanimous decisions by the European Court of Human Rights affirm the rights of Scientologists throughout Europe to organise their churches and practise their faith unmolested by arbitrary intrusions from governments. The Belgian government is attemptiong to reclassify and criminalise the voluntary participation in peaceful religious practices. This offends Belgium's obligations as a member of the European Union and as a signatory to the European Convention on Human Rights and the International Covenant of Civil and Political Rights. We are confident the Belgian church will prevail, as we always do.
REVEREND MARY ANDERSON, Ascot Vale
Sadly, no change
BRUCE Guthrie says the urge to protect children is a potent catalyst for change, and cites media coverage of the latest massacre of school children, and exposure of the grubs who hacked into Milly Dowler's mobile phone, as examples. The first mass shooting I became aware of occurred in Texas in 1966, when ex-marine Charles Whitman shot and killed a number of people, including a heavily pregnant woman and her baby. There was saturation media coverage around the world. No catalyst for change then, and indeed, only change for the worse in the ensuing decades, with scores of mass shootings, including school children in their classrooms. Calls for tighter gun laws and scaling back of gratuitous violence in movies are fobbed off.
When the next massacre occurs, the media will report it, and some sections of it will wallow in it. Nothing will change.
JOHN RAWSON, Briar Hill
Deep breath
AS TO Ian Rose's resolutions about quitting smoking in 2013 (The Sunday Age, 30/12), it wasn't all willpower that worked for me. I'm sure it was also a couple of self-deceptions which helped me finally quit two years ago.
On my last smoking day I bought a carton of cigarettes. Then, heroically, I threw it straight into the garbage can. (Surprising how you can be moved by a sense of the ridiculous, in this case the absurd prospect of resuming smoking when you've just destroyed $150 worth of beautiful cigarettes.)
The other trick: when craving a cigarette after having quit, I would hyperventilate by taking around 10 very deep breaths. This is a maximal version of what smokers do with their first big drawbacks. And the dizziness induced by over-oxygenation was briefly a small substitute for the euphoria of the first drag.
Maybe it will work for you, too. Good luck.
PETER LYELL, Brighton
Too much information
ONE wonders if ignorance, at least in matters of health, is bliss.
I have lost count of the number of times the recommended intake of eggs has changed over the years, from two a week to two a day. I can never remember, as I enjoy my daily glass of red wine, whether it's giving me breast cancer, saving me from heart disease or bringing on dementia.
The range of viewpoints by health authorities in The Sunday Age (30/12) continues to confuse.
Front page: AMA president discounts the need for patient advocates.
Page 11: Leading physician teams up with playwright to promote the need for patients and their families to ''Check, ask, notify'' to prevent adverse events in healthcare.
Page 13: National Stroke Foundation denies need for tests ''which may not be necessary'' in response to a private company offering cardiovascular screening for asymptomatic older people.
The last point leads me to consider cancelling my regular mammogram, fecal occult blood test, glaucoma screening, PAP test and yearly full blood examination (all previously recommended by other health authorities) on the basis they may not be necessary?
Would we be less stressed (and perhaps healthier) if we took no notice of the latest studies and findings, instead relying on common sense and moderation?
MARY HOUGHTON, Clifton Springs
Death of a giant
TO CHEER themselves up, Kerry Packer and Tony Greig decided to kill an elephant. They, or rather Greig, succeeded in shooting the aged male they were looking for (The Sunday Age, ''The man who bagged Packer's elephant'', 30/12). But neither Greig nor Packer seemed satisfied with the result. A small fortune spent, a dead elephant, and two unhappy men. What a sad story.
LAWRENCE POPE, Carlton North

Bishop TD Jakes is returning to Texas after a speaking engagement. When his plane arrives, there is a limousine there to transport him to his home in Dallas. As he prepares to get into the limo, he stops and speaks to the driver. "You know," he says, "I am almost 50 years old and I have never driven a limousine. Would you mind if I drove it for a while?" The driver says, "No problem." Bishop TD Jakes gets into the driver's seat, and they head off down the highway. A short distance away sits a rookie state trooper operating his first speed trap. The long black limo goes by him doing 70 in a 55 mph zone. The trooper pulls out, easily catches the limo, and gets out of his patrol car to begin the procedure. The young trooper walks up to the driver's door, and when the glass is rolled down, he is surprised to see who is driving. He immediately excuses himself, goes back to his car, and calls his supervisor. He tells the supervisor, "I know we are supposed to enforce the law, but I also know that important people are sometimes given certain courtesies. I need to know what I should do because I have stopped a very important person." The supervisor asks, "Is it the Governor?" The young trooper says, "No, he's more important than that." The supervisor says, "Oh, so it's the President." The young trooper says, "No, he's even more important than that." The supervisor finally asks, "Well then, who is it?" The young trooper says, "I think it's Jesus, because he's got TD Jakes for a chauffeur!!!"
Two nuns were riding their bicycles down the street. The first nun says, "I've never came this way before." The second nun says, "Yeah, it's the cobblestones!"

What is the difference between acne and a Catholic priest? Acne usually comes on a boy's face after he turns 12.
One fine day, a priest, a rabbi, and a high priestess decide to all go fishing. They manage to get to the water, and off they go. One hour later, the high priestess says, "I think I forgot the food!" She steps off the boat, walks across the water, gets the picnic basket, and walks back! As they are eating, the priest thinks, "What a display. Jeez, where does she get off walkin' on the water?" Right then, the rabbi says, "Oye! I forgot the drinks." He steps right off the boat, and walks across the water to get the drinks. By this time, the priest is very frustrated! He excuses himself, and as the priest steps out of the boat, he falls in the water. The high priestess turns to the rabbi and says, "You think we should have told him about the rocks?"

From the Back Cover
In Handbook on the Prophets, Robert Chisholm provides students of the Bible with a thorough and insightful introduction to the challenging yet exciting teachings of the Old Testament prophetic literature.
Following in the tradition of the widely used Handbook on the Pentateuch and Handbook on the Historical Books, this guide avoids technical commentary on each verse of the prophetic books. Instead, as the author explains, it ìgives an overview of the prophetsí message through a running commentary. . . . One must see the forest as well as the individual trees, for the individual parts will not make sense without a feel for the whole.î
Chisholm begins each chapter with a brief analysis of the social and historical setting of the book under discussion. As he works through these writings section by section, he details the structure, content, and important concepts of each book. Throughout, he considers how the messages of the prophets would have been heard in their respective historical communities and how the prophetsí messages are of continuing importance for contemporary study.
ìChisholmís book is a welcome addition to the books on the Hebrew prophets. It will help readers find their way through the complexities of the writings themselves and also through the thickets of varying interpretations. The author takes a thoughtfully conservative approach to the knotty critical problems posed by the prophetic books, offering concise but incisive support for positions that take the Bibleís own claims seriously. This book will make the prophets more accessible to a whole range of readers.îóJohn N. Oswalt, Wesley Biblical Seminary
Robert Chisholm begins his Handbook on the Prophets by acknowledging that
the prophetic literature of the Hebrew Bible presents great interpretive obstacles. Its poetry, though teeming with vivid imagery that engages the imagination and emotions, challenges the readerís understanding because of its economy of expression, rapid shifts in mood, and sometimes cryptic allusions. The reader of the prophetic literature quickly realizes that these books were written at particular points in time to specific groups of people with whom the modern reader seems to share little.
Chisholm argues, however, that the prophetic writings are more than ancient documents. They demand attention today as the word of God, containing a message that ìtranscends time and space.î The prophets provide modern readers with insight into Godís character and challenge them to love and serve God with greater devotion.
The handbookís goal is to acquaint readers with the prevailing themes and central messages of these biblical books. While Chisholm has attempted to concentrate on these larger issues of interpretation, he notes: ìOut of necessity, I do at times address especially important interpretive issues in greater depth and attempt to synthesize and interact with the scholarly opinions expressed in the commentaries and technical literature.î Much of this discussion appears in the many footnotes, and extensive bibliographies are provided at the end of each chapter for those who wish to do additional research.
Robert B. Chisholm Jr. (Th.D., Dallas Theological Seminary) is professor of Old Testament studies at Dallas Theological Seminary. He is the author of Interpreting the Minor Prophets and From Exegesis to Exposition: A Practical Guide to Using Biblical Hebrew.

Patrick Kiley, two others indicted in Trevor Cook ponzi scheme
A year ago, conservative radio show host Patrick Kiley was suing reporters for tying him to Trevor Cook's $190 million Ponzi scheme.
But it looks like Kiley's vehement denial of wrongdoing hasn't persuaded the feds.
Kiley's homemade radio show, broadcast on 200 stations including KSTP 1500, was called "Follow the Money." When investigators followed the money, it led to Kiley.
An indictment unsealed Wednesday accuses Kiley and two others -- Jason Bo-Alan Beckman and Gerald Joseph Durand -- of playing key parts in Cook's scheme.
The indictment weaves a long and complicated tale of how the three men were affiliated with Cook, accusing them of wire fraud, mail fraud, conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud, and money laundering.
Cook originally pleaded guilty to masterminding the international scheme last summer.
To bait investors, Cook had offered them high, no-risk returns if they bought into a financial currency program. Unfortunately for the investors, Cook's pitch was more or less a fairy tale. All told, he screwed in the neighborhood of 900 people, earning him a 25 year prison sentence.
According to the indictment, Kiley, Beckman, and Durand "provided various descriptions to victim investors about how the currency program worked" and tricked investors into believing the program was making the promised returns when it was not. They are also accused of participating in the illegal wire transferring of millions of dollars.
Some of the invested money was diverted to the three men, along with Cook and Christopher Pettengill (another Cook associate who pleaded guilty last month), according to the indictment.
The indictment also includes e-mail exchanges between the accused men that appear to detail a plan unraveling.
In a July 21, 2008 e-mail, Penttingail tells Cook and Beckman that he is "dodging bullets" from a former sales agent who is "not beyond going the extra mile in hosing us."
A couple weeks later, Beckman sent another panicked e-mail to Cook about someone inquiring into the currency program.
"Now the ship begins to sink," writes Beckman. "This is not good. I will needless to say take care of it, I just wanted you to know."
All three men still deny doing anything illegal. Kiley and Beckman have both been released from custody on $100,000 bail.

Hi newbie here,
I have Windows 7 64 bit installed on my PC & know how it works, I've installed Windows 7 32 bit on my girlfriend's PC but although it's installed ok & everything else works, video files will not play & pictures won't open in the windows picture viewer.
With the pictures, I installed 'full screen image viewer' & they open fine but she would like the windows viewer.
With the avi video files, they open eventually but you can only hear the sound - no video. I updated the video driver & when I tried opening the avi, media player came up with an error message saying 'unable to open because there's a fault with your video card'.
The PC worked fine with XP 32 bit before. Is the PC not compatible with Windows 7?
Anyone any idea how to fix this? Could it be a faulty copy of Windows in which case I'll have to take it back

I have the newest version of WP running on my site. I have about 100 Pages and 0 Posts. When I attempt to add new pages the CPU usage on my server is chewed up to 100% by processes. If I attempt to access the PermaLinks page in the administration panel my server basically freezes.
I am on a Dedicated VPS server with a 2.0GHz CPU assigned to the site and 1GB RAM. Please let me know if there is any way for me to fix this problem, aside from reinstalling the system. I would like to utilize the software as best I can, but if WordPress is not the software I need to run my site I will have to change. I just like the software and it's ease of use.

Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies
Question from LucarioLatiosDS
2 Questions ?
1. Where can i find sorcerer's ring?
2. Where can i download treasure maps?
6 years ago
I'm not sure on Sorcerer's Ring but the treasure maps can be downloaded with Erinn when you canvas for guests, just like you can share your own.
6 years ago
I'm not sure, but I think alchemizing is the only way to get it. Select "try your luck" and alchemize the sorcerer's ring with 1 skull ring and 1 saint's ashes.
Shaddowval is correct about downloading treasure maps. You have to canvass for guests.
6 years ago
I got my first treasure map from a quest. The quest is a guy who needs some kind of medicine outside of Zere rocks. Then after you get the map, you still get new ones once you conquer the first one
5 years ago
A sorcerers ring can be created in alchemy(skull ring+saints ashes). There are three quests that give you treasure chests. the first is a quest given by Christopher Collapsus outside Zere Rocks(granite tunnel of woe Lv. 1). The other is given to you by the king if you just go and talk to him at some stage after beating corvus(random map of ???? Lv ?). The last map is given by a boy on the large hill south of alltrades(only accessible with Sterlings Whistle). The quest involves fighting gigantes's which can be found at the Tower of Nod(north of coffinwell). You will need the rangers skill, Mercy. reward is a map(random map of ???? Lv ?).

Quincy Pondexter, the only senior on the Washington men's basketball team, discussed coach Lorenzo Romar, Huskies football, dunking on Barack Obama and why he doesn't party in an exclusive live chat Wednesday. Here are the highlights. Read the entire chat transcript here.
Q: Have you mastered the Q-Walk yet? I love the song!
Pondexter: When I was out with the sports-hernia surgery the guys were joking and saying I couldn't dance. I went out and introduced the Q-Walk shortly after that. Check out the video, with cameos from Lady Gaga and Kanye West coming soon!
Q: If you had to pick a preseason Pac-10 Player of the Year, who would it be and why?
- Purple Heart plant bed vandalized days before Memorial Day
- Students seeking sugar daddies for tuition, rent
- Refusal in Bernie Sandersland to accept reality is really unreal
- Central District's shrinking black community wonders what's next
- All's still not smooth for Uber after its bumpy ride to Sea-Tac Airport

Pondexter: This guy that is from Fresno, Calif. You might know him. I'll give you a few hints: He wears No. 20. He's black. And he has been at college for four years. Who's your pick?
Q: Who is going to step up and fill in for the void left by Jon Brockman?
Pondexter: You can't fill the void left by Brockman. He is a one-of-a-kind player. And we will truly miss him. It is going to be a gang effort.
Q: Do you go out clubbing in Seattle?
Pondexter: No, I'd rather chill at home and go out locally at low-key spots. I don't drink and never have in my life.
Q: How can you tell when Coach Romar is really mad?
Pondexter: His lips pucker and they look like beaks. The spit is flying profusely. And he balls up his fists and gets in a defensive stance like he is about to pounce on you.
Q: If you played for Coach Sark, what position would see yourself playing?
Pondexter: I'll take Jake Locker's spot. Instead of everyone wearing No. 10 jerseys they'd wear No. 20 jerseys to the game. I was messing with him today and told him that our basketball team can beat his in a 7-on-7 football game. We could go pads or flag!
Q: How's your sneaker collection?
Pondexter: My sneaker collection has dwindled because I moved into a place that is a lot smaller. I gave 50 pairs of shoes to Goodwill. So if you see a tall dude with my shoes on wearing size 15s …
Q: Yankees or Phillies?
Pondexter: Yankees. I've got my Yankee fitted cap covering my eyes like Jay-Z.
Q: How's your three-ball coming along?
Pondexter: It's coming great. I'm definitely going to take a lot more than in years past. It is a lot better now.
Q: If you could dunk on anyone, who would it be?
Pondexter: Barack Obama. That would be cool. I would throw the ball in whatever gym I would be in.
Q: Do players pick up on the antics of the Dawgpack?
Pondexter: We love what they bring to the table because they are doing things we can't necessarily do. We can't taunt but it is great that the student section does some good research.
Q: Twitter or Facebook?
Pondexter: Facebook. Add me as a friend.
Q: What's your advice to the UW football team on how to right the ship?
Pondexter: Keep championship aspirations on their minds, even through rough times. To be successful, it takes time and I think they have all the ability to start winning a lot of games very shortly. I love going to the football games, and the atmosphere is growing greater day by day.
Q: I heard your parents are pretty strict. Are they watching this chat?
Pondexter: My parents aren't that strict. I never had a curfew at all. Even though my dad looks like Shrek and my mom's a prison guard. Seriously. I never got in trouble because they treated me like their best friend.
Q: Do you think the NBA should bring a team back to Seattle?
Pondexter: Of course I do. Seattle is a tremendous city and deserves to have NBA basketball. It is a shame it doesn't.

Racing games. It feels like I've played them since the beginning of time. I remember playing Turbo on my ColecoVision (I know… what the heck is/was a ColecoVision?). I played Pole Position and OutRun in the arcades, and the updated racers from Need for Speed, Forza to Burnout. I don't want to toot my own horn (no pun intended) but I'm pretty good at them…
Ian Marsh's Scoops has been around the App Store for quite some time now and yet it remains one of the more popular and well liked titles for the iPhone/iPod Touch. This shouldn't come as a surprise really considering how easy it is to appreciate a game like Scoops and the amount of fun that can be had from such a simple concept.
Tangrams – The Ancient Chinese Logic Puzzles Come to the iPhone and iPod Touch! But which is "better"?
First, why don't I explain what exactly a Tangram puzzle is. In a Tangram puzzle, you have a shape. This shape is actually comprised of a group of other shapes. In Tangram, you have seven pieces: Two large triangles, two small triangles, one medium triangle, a square, and a strange slanted rectangle piece. The key is to place and rotate these seven pieces until they form the shape that you're looking for. So, now that you're in the loop, let's get to the review!
It's tempting to judge a game by the companionship it keeps. Payback falls victim to this by the obvious comparisons to the original GTA I and GTA II. It has the immense task of measuring up to one of the greatest and well recognized gaming franchise in current history. So, does Payback meet these great expectations? Does it deserve a place in the App Store pantheon of great games? Is it worth spending $6.99? I say yes. Payback is, without a doubt, the most comprehensive gaming experience the App Store has to offer.
Let me begin by saying I love Qix style games. I remember playing them in arcades… Yes, I know it's hard to believe but us "elderly" folks actually used to go to arcades to socialize and play games, rather than in our basements talking through headphones with our friends who are in a different household, or over 2 iphones via wifi. But this isn't a history lesson. It's simply to point out that I hold a special place in my heart for these type of games. Perhaps unfortunately and/or unfairly, I also come in with certain expectations.
Have you seen the Tom Hanks movie, Terminal? Did you like his cooked accent? How bout the terrible politics between his home country and homeland security USA that kept him locked up? How about the slomance? Terminal – liked, loved or hated – is actually moot to this review; JetSet: A game for Airports, is nothing at all like the movie. And your role in the game? Nothing Hollywood, just a security guard in inspections.
International flyers, JetSet has the answers to the questions that plague your about airports, security and fashion. Forget what you think you know. Why? JetSet will teach you all you need to know.
Being from New Jersey, there's something about bowling that stirs the soul. The sights, the smells, the horrifically colored shoes… they all appeal to he suburban part of my heart. The App Store has given us a few good games that seek to emulate this experience. They seek to translate the feel of the 'lanes' to a mobile experience. Downhill Bowling, though, strives for something far grander.
There is a word I rarely use when reviewing a game: exceptional. Yet, Blue Attack! rightly deserves this description. John Kooistra has managed to create a game that reaches a level of polish, gameplay, and affordability that sets it apart from most others in the SHMUP (Shoot 'em up) genre and within the landfill that is the App Store. This is one game that definitely rises above the rest.
What can I really say about TanZen, other than this is a perfect puzzle game for the iPhone and iPod Touch. There is a lite version for you try out, but beware, if you're going to try the lite version, chances are you're going to upgrade to the full version.
Word games, we've all played them. Crossword puzzles, Scrabble, Boggle etc etc. I've honestly never been a huge fan of these type of games, but for some reason, I really enjoy them on my Touch. Either I'm getting wiser with age, or these games translate beautifully on this device. Maybe it's both…

Mang, look at all that hair (I admit it's a bit much for my bald sensibilities). I'm guessing they're lawyers or supreme justices.
The one with the braids is the punching bag kid grown up!
I'd think he'd star in a cultural faire (hm, wonder if there's bald males in your universe as of now).
Quelsudi the mumuu fighter was bald in his youth. I think the atheletes shaved their heads and painted their scalps. And my Grievous is mostly bald, with a couple of braids in the back.

Great NFS (National Forest Service) CG on weekdays. A bit of a zoo on weekends when the locals invade the place. Otherwise, it was quiet and serene. The site was shaded but allowed enough sunlight to keep our batteries charged. The vault toilets were clean but full of bugs. Take a can of Raid with you.
Most sites appeared to be reasonably level. Pull-through sites were blacktop but back-in sites were gravel. Verizon MiFi worked well. The marina just outside the CG had a store with showers and laundry. The showers looked pretty bad but were serviceable. Didn't use the laundry.
The hosts were pleasant but wouldn't/couldn't enforce dog leash rules or 1PM check out. One host drove a truck that sounded like an urban assault vehicle. - LM&TinView

We choose this park based on their web site that promoted trout ponds and a cafe. When we called the morning of our stay, we were told there was "one site available" so we reserved it. In about an hour , we received a call that due to the heat the office would be closed. We arrived around 4 PM to find everything closed including trout ponds and cafe. In addition,we were the only travelers and there were actually about 10 vacant spots. Of the 6 other sites with RVs in them, one had an occupant and the others appeared to be in storage. This place has taken an attractive natural spot and filled it with a smorgasbord of junk. The restrooms had new roofs, but looked as if they were finished off with cheap surplus materials, plus they were about two blocks from the RV sites. No cell coverage and no Wi-Fi. Although every site had a sign advising you that dogs had to be on a leash and cleaned up after, the owner, without any greeting or pleasantries, found it necessary to come and verbally give us the same instructions the minute we got there. We have often paid less and gotten far more, so we would not stay here again. - judb

Wonderful little roadside campground in the beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota. This campground is family owned and operated. Staff is helpful and friendly. Stocked ponds with good fishing. They will even cook and clean your fish for you. ATV riding right out of the park on majestic forest trails. ATV rentals and tours were available. Trout Haven also offers 7 camping cabins quaintly decorated in a lodge style, and two tepees This resort is very family friendly and even has a bounce house for the kids. The food in the restaurant is awesome! We rated this resort a seven due to no pool, poor Wi-Fi connectivity, no TV, no cell phone service, and out dated restroom facilities. If you are seeking a low tech escape with awesome ATV riding this is your place! Trout Haven is near Deadwood, Rapid City, and all other Black Hills attractions. If you have kids, we highly recommend Old MacDonald's Farm, Bear Country, Story Book Island, and the President's Slide. - grammyandaugiebeers

HELEN - Just after 2 p.m. Saturday there was no doubt that the Shriners had returned to Helen.

 The group came back to the city this year for its Yaarab Shriners Helen Summer Ceremonial, culminating in Saturday afternoon's parade.

 Helen Police Chief Jim Couch estimates some 4,000 people turned out to watch Shriners' antics in that parade.

 But what are Shriners, some may ask.

 Shriners International is a fraternity based on fun, fellowship, and the Masonic principles of brotherly love, relief and truth.

 Atlanta's Yaarab Shrine, founded in 1889, is one of 195 chapters of Shriners International.

 According to the Yaarab Shrine website, Atlanta Shriners have been raising money for 125 years to support Shriners Hospitals for Children, and the more than 4,000 members contribute more than $800,000 annually to those hospitals.

 Shriners Hospitals for Children is a healthcare system of 22 hospitals that provide care for children up to age 18 with orthopedic conditions, burns, spinal cord injuries, and cleft lip and palate.

 Helen Mayor Judy Holloway is pleased the Shriners came back to Helen this year after an absence.

 "It's a lot of fun for one thing to see all of them and talk to them," Holloway said. "They do a great job with all the charity work they do. We're fortunate to have them back and hope they all enjoy themselves."

This issue was really good! Lots of moving pieces that turn out to be functional to the story (and arc) as a whole, and a credit to everybody involved, fictional and otherwise.

V: The Recipe
Recently, Chantelle of Fat Mum Slim posted What makes you 'you'?, and it got me thinking about the habits, language, and idiosyncrasies that constitute our individual personalities. Who is she, that woman that is me? What are the ingredients that make me who I am in this 39th year of life?
What makes V, V?
1. I'm not one to mince words or back down from defending myself or what I believe in. After last week's plagiarism scandal, a lot of people commended me for having the courage to speak out about it. While I appreciate that, it's just not my nature not to. In fact, speaking up isn't something I ever have to ponder. I just do. For better or for worse.
2. I never have to "sleep on it" to come to a final decision. I'm very decisive.
3. I'm a really good tipper, because I know what it feels like to wait on people. Consequently, I feel happier and I get really great service at my favorite local places.
4. Can't help it, but every time I see a blogger making a peace sign with their fingers, it just irritates the hell out of me. Just smile and take the photo! Grown women do not need to make peace signs every time they see a camera.
5. There's nothing I'm afraid to wear for fear that I "can't pull it off," but there are lots of things I don't wear (like Birkenstocks, Spanx, pantyhose, and bowler hats), because I despise them.
6. I like spiky things. Which with the heels, and the long dark hair, make me even scarier. That's either my inner spikiness manifesting itself on the outside, or I'm such a chicken I'm subconsciously trying to scare everyone away so I stay safe.
A few of my favorite spiky things.
7. As feminine as I am with my nails and bling and heels, I bust it in the gym like a man. I train HARD. And sweat buckets. Not pretty, but effective.
8. I hate clutter. And lots of little statues and framed photos everywhere. And floral bedspreads. And the smell of moth balls. And feet. Please keep them away from me.
9. I share stuff with my husband—like my computer, bathroom, and closet—but I really don't want to. Let's just have two of everything, I say. I'm not good at sharing. Except online, of course. 🙂
10. I don't dwell on the things people have done to me, but I don't forget. I just choose to put my mental and physical energy to better use. Glass half-full.
11. I'm a total BMW girl. Just bought my third one! I like to drive fast. Very fast. Thank God for my radar detector.
On the left is my last car. On the right is my newest one, just purchased last month! Yes, they are very similar.
12. I dine like I was born with a silver spoon in my mouth (uh, I wasn't). Caviar, oysters, filet mignon, lobster, smoked salmon, lump crab, foie gras, tuna tartare, sashimi, fancy French sauces, champagne, bespoke cocktails, and a black napkin for my lap, yes, thank you! All part of my regular vocabulary. It's the one thing I cannot compromise on. I'll sell the Beemer before I'll eat crap.
13. I don't really get hangovers. Even after all those bespoke cocktails.
14. I've never been camping. The idea of not having a locked door between me and the world terrifies me.
15. If I had a dollar for every F-bomb I've dropped, I'd be driving an Aston Martin (dream car!) instead of a Beemer.
Aston Martin V12 Vantage image , sans swear, via astonmartin.com.
Or, I'd be wearing Wendy Brandes' gold-plated Swear Rings. (Maybe I should start fining myself a dollar for every F-bomb, and I'll have the set in no time. I should set up a f*#!*** Swear Ring Swear Jar.)
The one-and-only gold Swear Ring set by the one-and-only Wendy Brandes. Click to purchase—for me, or for you!
16. I like bad boys, sassy girls, other people's kids, dogs, air-conditioning, and Saturdays.
17. I'm a non-practicing Greek Orthodox semi-Buddhist. I'm spiritual and have faith, but I don't go to church anymore. Reference #10. Though I could never be fully Buddhist because cockroaches. Must. Die.
18. I have terrible stagefright! When other people try to take photos of me for my blog or theirs, they almost always suck because I'm so nervous (just ask Lee). As the subject, I prefer videos to photos any day.
19. The future eccentric old lady in me is obsessed with massive rings, piles of bangles, gold, leopard, fur, tassels, fringe, and caftans. Can't you just see me in a flowing leopard print Camilla Franks caftan, long hair twisted into a bun, martini in hand, now-vintage designer bag hanging in the crook of my arm, jewelry everywhere going clink clink, as I swoop into bingo in my retirement community? Wanna join?
20. I say please and thank you every day, to friends, family, and as many strangers as possible. As long as you don't cut me off in traffic, of course. Swear Jar in the car?! 😉
What makes you who you are? Tell me something I may not know about you…

This was so much fun— and the fact that you drive fast doesn't surprise me at all!

well F*%! that was funny…. Those swear rings are amazing, I could definitely start a swear jar and be buying those beauties in no time!
I have no problem giving my opinion! It's not something I hesitate on giving, it even if it's contradictory to what someone else has said, no matter how many times it's made things get very interesting!
Great write up, whenever I read your posts it inspires me to work on my own writing for my blog, as it's something I really feel I lack.

A peace sigh never hurt anybody 🙂
Cool indulgence (the beamer!) LOVE!
I loved reading this! I've never understood the peace sign thing either; even when I was younger it used to baffle me.
Leia's latest post: Midi, Again
You "bust it in the gym like a man"? What a gross statement–it dismisses the fantastic badassity of women who bust it in the gym like themselves. Come on, V, bust it in the gym like a woman!
This makes me love you so much more. Thanks for sharing a little bit more about yourself with us. I wish more bloggers would be this open and honest.
Lindsay's latest post: Protective Eyewear 101
1) Hell yeah! Out-spoken people are the best kind of people. If I feel I've been wronged, there is no way in hell to shut me up. Worst idea: telling me to shut up or else. I'll just take that 'or else' right there. I listen to no one but myself. Sometimes I regret this later, but, honestly, I'd rather be a bitch sometimes when someone didn't deserve it than get stepped on like a doormat because I didn't speak up for myself EVER.
2) Good for you. I am not.
3) I tip based on the service I've received. I try to give 20 if they were awesome, 15 for average (did what they were supposed to), and for anything less they start getting not much. I get that the job sucks, but you should still do what you're paid to.
4) Seriously? That's a thing? That's so nineties. This should only be done ironically. And, even then, sparely.
5) Tights as pants are the worst.
9) If I ever get married, it would be so tempting to have separate bedrooms, at least for our stuff. Or, maybe, we could even have separate houses located nearby?
9) Exactly that.
14. Me either. Camping sounds awful. Although it's less the lack of door, and more the BUGS EVERYWHERE.
15. If that were the case, I would talk like a character in Boondock Saints at all times.

Love this and learning more about you! My pet peeve: When people don't use their homophones correctly. It's not the hard people!
Great post, V! I love learning more about you, and it pleases me that this post only confirms what I've suspected for a while – we'd totally be friends IRL! 🙂
Something about me? Despite being honest and blunt, as well as having a mouth like a sailor, when it comes to my elders, I am all about respect. My west coast friends are constantly mocking me for calling their parents "Mrs. and Mr." so and so, rather than calling them by their first name. Maybe it's my east coast upbringing, but that's just how I roll…and it's a bit incongruous with the rest of my personality! 😉
Santina's latest post: Silver Straps
This was such a super fun and awesome post V! I think i'd be on my way to driving a very nice car for every F word I dropped too! lol! I'm with you on tipping, the mr. & I are always like to tip well as you always know you'll get great if not better service/better table at your fave places.
Camping terrifies the pants off of me! Bugs, EVERYWHERE, ugh! But I have done it all before (on Fraser island, OZ), just never again!
Manners are so important, aside from please & thank you, excuse me is another phrase which could be used more often from others too.
Hope you have a super rest of the week!

Loved this post V! I totally understand about the gourmet food thing or just good cuisine in general. My mother was a chef & caterer … I didn't appreciate how good I had it until my Uni years in school! Great service and excellent food is a MUST bottomline. Oh and it bugs me when people are at fine dining and do not know how to use proper utensils, uggh! It's not difficult! At least do your ettiquette research or don't order the escargot. haha! 🙂
Besides making me laugh, it is great that you know who you are. Maybe you should consider speaking at a high school or something like that where people are so afraid of being themselves – perhaps your fresh take on things is just what they need to hear.

I just adore how opinionated you are and I love that you're not afraid to speak up. Too many people are, and keeping things inside doesn't solve anything!
PS: I know age is just a number, but I definitely thought you were at least 8 years younger. Can I look like you someday? Or now? Now would be good.

OK, so let's talk about your driving. I have this theory that drivers in and around [the south] are highly influenced by the NASCAR culture and therefore drive like MANIACS. There has been are least 3 times when I've been driving [there] and people just whip around me for NO REASON. WHY?! Even if you don't watch NASCAR, I think a lot of people are still influenced by it because everyone drives CRAZY near [there].

My Dad -the Hunger Striker and Boss of Greenpeace; GIRL'S INFLUENCE LEADS CAMPAIGNER TO FIGHT FOR CLIMATE CHANGE
Byline: Annie Brown
SITTING in the common room of her Glasgow comprehensive, Naomi Naidoo was sometimes asked about her dad - the South African hunger striker turned head of Greenpeace.
She said: "It was a bit strange to say, 'Well, my dad is on hunger strike at the moment,' but my friends are used to it and are very supportive. To me, he is just my dad."
When her father, Kumi, was offered the role of international director at Greenpeace, he was in South Africa on the 19th day of his 21-day hunger strike and told them he was in no mood to discuss jobs.
But one phone call to 17-year-old Naomi in Scotland changed his mind.
She recognised that he was physically weak and could regret being rash, so she chided him that she wouldn't talk to him if he didn't at least consider it.
Kumi, 45, may have sat in rooms with Gordon Brown and Barack Obama but it is Naomi - "the centre of my universe" - who has always been one of his greatest influences and, ultimately, he took the job.
Naomi said: "He told me they were interested in him and I immediately thought that was fantastic. I think Greenpeace is incredible.
"I thought it was a great opportunity.
Obviously, it had to be his decision but all I did was say that he had to at least consider it. If he had been offered it and then turned it down, that would have been different."
After battling apartheid in South Africa in the 1970s and 1980s, Kumi led global campaigns to end poverty and protect human rights.
He grew up in poverty but won a prestigious Rhodes Scholarship to Oxford University, went into exile and met Naoimi's mother, who is from Callander, Perthshire.
The relationship didn't work but the pair remain firm friends and Kumi is dedicated to his daughter, often visiting her in Glasgow.
Naomi said: "I have friends who have fathers who live in the same city or in the same country who they see less of than I see of my dad.
"My dad has pretty much always lived on a different continent but still manages to be a major part of my life.
"Given that he doesn't exactly have a lot of time on his hands, that's amazing. He is a great dad. We have such a special relationship.
"As a child, I would be whisked out of Shawlands in Glasgow and taken to these amazing conferences. A lot of them, I was too young to even understand but it opened my eyes.
"When we travelled, he showed me the real country not the tourist traps."
His decision earlier this year to go on hunger strike, to highlight the horrendous Mugabe regime and the starvation in Zimbabwe, naturally worried her.
She said: "At that point, I was just really glad that I didn't live with him.
"If I had seen it, that would have been really difficult for me. I wouldn't have wanted to see him at his worst. I would have hated it.
"It is only recently I could even look at the photographs from that time."
She spent time with him during his recovery when he was based in London for a while.
Naomi said: "I was around at the better stage. He was still on juice, gradually putting weight back on."
As a child, he was just Naomi's dad. It was only as she got older she realised that her father was a famous activist. She said: "I was most in awe of his anti-apartheid work because, to this day, I think that is closest to his heart."
But she also admired his efforts with Make Poverty History, which led to a brief tiffwith Bob Geldof at the G8 summit in Gleneagles, when he felt the real message was being lost.
She said: "It was during that campaign that it really dawned on me that he was an activist. I am so proud of him, I always have been."
Naomi is now travelling in India, working on an education project for the poor after completing sixth-year studies in English and maths and she is considering Edinburgh University. …

We present a perfect Nash equilibrium in which the creator of a work, motivated by economic considerations, selectively enforces her own copyright. In fact, the creator may not only permit, but may strategically promote infringement of the copyright, thereby participating indirectly in predatory pricing, and so raising barriers to entry. Our model is highly applicable to the software industry, where relatively high entry costs and the relatively low cost of copyright infringement make this phenomenon likely. We further show the conditions under which exogenous intervention, through intensive enforcement of copyrights, increases social welfare. Finally, we explore some potential strategies for such legal intervention.
Keywords: Antitrust; Copyright; Predatory Pricing; Monopoly; Microsoft; Nash Equilibrium; Price Discrimination
