Christchurch earthquake
Police now believe 182 people died in Christchurch's devastating February earthquake but say it could take months for the last bodies to be identified.
At today's press conference Superintendent Dave Cliff said police expected the death toll to climb from the current number of 166 confirmed dead to 182. Previously they estimated the toll would be 180.
He warned that it would be a slow process identifying the last victims as all the had to go on was the "fragments of human remains", he said.
"To date we have confirmed the identity of 140 of the victims and expect that number to rise in the coming days, however the point we're reaching now is that the identity of those last number of bodies is becoming increasingly difficult."
In some cases it could take "several months", he said.
Another two victims were named tonight. They are John Kristoffer Villegas Chua, 24, from the Philippines and Chang Lai, 27, from China.
Chua, from Cebu City, arrived in Christchurch from the Philippines just two days before the earthquake, and had just attended an orientation at King's Education, on level three of the CTV building, followed by a review class when he died.
Today his father, Arthur Chua, told the Sun Star newspaper in Cebu that the family was relieved he had been found.
"Our family is happy that finally JK's body has been identified through his watch, wedding ring and dental records," he said. "Hopefully, his remains will be with us soon".
Mr Chua said his daughter Johanna and her husband, Bill, had been in New Zealand for over a week waiting for authorities to release the body of his boy, the second of four children.
Today the Queensland fire and rescue task force - the last of the international urban search and rescue (USAR) teams - left Christchurch.
Internal Affairs Minister Nathan Guy expressed his gratitude to the team and all the international USAR teams who had helped with the rescue and recovery operation.
"At its peak, around 600 USAR personnel were based in Latimer Square in the aftermath of the devastating earthquake. This included foreign personnel from Australia, Singapore, Japan, Taiwan, China, USA and UK," Mr Guy said.
"I want to thank all the USAR teams who have worked so hard in difficult conditions. I'm sure all New Zealanders are grateful for their courage and dedication," he said.
Meanwhile, Civil Defence national coordinator Steve Brazier gave an update on the number of buildings which had been given a red placard, indicating they were unsafe to enter.
Of 61,000 homes checked for damage, 1630 had been given red placards and of the 4067 commercial buildings checked, 840 received red placards, Mr Brazier said.
"This is not a demolition order it is a notice to the owner that their building is dangerous."
Lines company Orion said, excluding customers in the CBD, power had been restored to all but a few small pockets of customers in the eastern suburbs.
Power was still off to about 40 per cent of the CBD due to damaged substations and cables and restricted access for safety reasons, the company said
Police were also happy with the progress they were making retrieving cars which had been abandoned in the central business district after February 22's quake.
"We have located and returned to owners nearly 1000 vehicles, which is approximately 98 per cent of those that have been abandoned in the central city," Mr Cliff said.
Vehicle owners were warned that some vehicles could take weeks to recover because of severe damage to car park buildings.

A horror short story that was inspired by of one of my Kult rpg characters background. Disturbing content, adult language, graphic descriptions, and horrifying situations are contained within, reader discretion is advised.
In the province of Behar in India, there is a bizarre custom that persists to the present day. Young men are kidnapped at knife (gun) point, and forced into marriage. If they refuse or cause trouble upon meeting their blushing bride-to-be, they are told that their family members will come to harm or even be killed if they resist. Some manage to fall in love or accept their fate. This scenario can be adapted to any rpg, ideally with a pc in the role of the abducted future husband!

It is amazing what can be found when spending some time on Google. Most recently we discovered that the official holiday for New Year's Day in 2017 will be on January 2! The approved calendar for the 16-17 school year indicated that students in Franklin Township would be returning to school on that day after the winter break. This new information has caused a shift of days in the calendar.
The link to the calendar shown below will take you to the new version of the calendar with the corrections. The modification is that students WILL attend school on Friday, December 16. The teacher work day has been moved to Monday, December 19, 2016. With this change, students and staff will return to school on Tuesday, January 3, 2017.

Don't miss visiting Patan. There is a gorgeous museum often cited as the best in the sub-continent, right on the Durbar Square.

PS I don't know how you are booking tours, but it will be MUCH less expensive to book anywhere you want to go once you get there. Indeed, on both of my trips to the area, we engaged a car and driver once we got there. That way, you can go where to want to go, stay as long as you want. There are official guides at all of the world Heritage sites who are very good and the price is quite reasonable - a few dollars an hour.

It was a must-do for me since I wasn't trekking, and I th ought the views were fantastic. However, I did it BEFORE a couple of crashes.
My blog entry for the flight is here: http://mytimetotravel.wordpress.com/2010/12/06/monuments-and-mountains/

Kathie, I read your trip report. Very informative, thanks for sharing it. I printed it so can refer to it during the trip(!). We are also staying at the Hyatt, thankfully. We arranged for a car and driver for 2 days from the hotel. The only thing we cannot decide on is taking that mountain flight.

MLB.com's No. 10 prospect yielded one run on three hits and struck out five over six innings as the Class A Advanced Marauders cruised to a 9-1 victory over the St. Lucie Mets.
Cole's only mistake was a third-inning homer by Mets' No. 17 prospect Danny Muno. After giving up a single to Wilmer Flores in the fourth, the top overall pick in last year's Draft retired his final eight batters en route his second win of the season.
"I was just making pitches early and getting ahead of guys and getting quick outs," the Pirates' No. 2 prospect said. "I was starting to hit spots a little more, and we had a six-run lead and that changes the game a little bit. It just lets you be more aggressive; you're not playing in a tight ballgame, so you just attack guys."
In his last three starts, Cole (2-1) has allowed three earned runs on seven hits over 17 innings. He's won twice in that span while lowering his ERA from 4.76 to 3.18.
"I kind of got in a rhythm in my last four or five starts," the 21-year-old right-hander said. "Sometimes I haven't had the results I wanted, but I've been throwing the ball better as of late, so I just have to keep doing the same thing."
The UCLA has recorded 39 strikeouts against 11 walks over 34 innings and has held Florida State League foes to a .193 batting average.
"It's been good," Cole said of his first Minor League season. "I'm learning a lot and I'm having a lot of fun. It's the same game as college but a little different. You just make some adjustments and keep on rolling."
Casey Sadler followed Cole with three shutout innings to earn his second save.
Alex Dickerson, Pittsburgh's No. 14 prospect, drove in a pair of runs, while Carlos Paulino was 2-for-4 with a double and two runs scored.

We go to the ring and out first comes Robbie E. by himself. Bully Ray is out next with his chain. He's looking around, paranoid about Aces & 8s. Out next comes Jeff Hardy followed by James Storm.
The match starts with some arguing. Ray strikes Robbie first and then he gets hit by Storm and Hardy. Storm and Hardy toss Robbie out of the ring. They turn around to a double clothesline from Ray. Ray goes back and forth from Hardy and Storm now. Ray yells out to Robbie and wants him to bring a table in the ring. Ray plays friends with Robbie but knocks him off the apron after he brings the table in. Ray sets the table up but Hardy and Storm beat him down. They go to double suplex Ray through the table but Robbie moves the table. Part of the table actually breaks but the match goes on. Robbie takes down Storm and works on Ray.
Robbie drops Hardy with an elbow to the chest. Ray slides a table in but Robbie kicks him back to the floor. Robbie sets a table up and knocks Ray back off the apron. Robbie works on Storm now before going back to Hardy. Robbie puts Hardy on the table and hits him with punches. Robbie goes to the second rope but Storm decks him. Storm climbs up for a superplex but Hardy cuts him off. Hardy goes to powerbomb both of them through the table but Ray moves it out of the way and they all three go down as Ray looks on. Ray clotheslines Hardy and is back in control.
They go on and Aces & 8s come out while Bully Ray is in control. Superkick from Storm to Bully Ray. Aces & 8s give Storm the thumbs up. Hardy runs in and takes Storm down. Hardy sets up a table in the middle of the ring and tries to put Storm on it. Storm fights back, Hardy hits flip off the top rope. The two are batteling back and forth. Hardy hits Twist of Hate. Aces come back to the ring to distract Hardy. Storm hits last call. Bully comes in tosses Storm out of the ring and puts Hardy through the table for the win.
Winner: Bully Ray
TNA X Division Title Match: Kenny King vs. Zema Ion
Lots of back and forth action to start the match. King goes for an early backslide pin and more near falls. King with a submission now. Ion turns it aorund in the corner but misses a big kick. King knocks Ion out to the floor and follows. They fight on the apron and King goes back to the floor. Ion leaps out onto him and takes him out. Ion brings King back in the ring and hits a neckbreaker for a 2 count. Ion with more offense.
Ion goes for a moonsault but lands on King's knees. King hits a couple of big clotheslines and rights hands. King sends Ion into the ropes and hits a huge spinning kick that's good for a two count. King charges into a back elbow, but launches Ion into the corner with a big suplex. Ion falls to the outside, so King jumps over the top with a twisting body press over the top. King sends Ion back into the ring and heads up to the apron. King hits a springboard blockbuster, but can't keep Ion down for two. King shoulders Ion but Ion fights out. Ion backs King into the corner, but King fights out. King locks on a single leg Boston crab.
Ion fights out of it with a kick and charges into a big boot from King in the corner. King misses a spin kick, and Ion connects with a crazy facebuster across his own knee for another near fall. Ion positions King and heads up in the corner. King stops him with a big right. King heads up after Ion but is thrown off. King lands on his feet and kicks Ion in the back of the head for another two count. King hits Ion with an enzugiri and rolls Ion up for another two. King charges into Ion in the corner, but whatever he did is sloppily reversed by Ion. Amazingly, that's the end of the match, as Ion gets the three.

Title: Growing Evergreen sumac in clay soil of Texas
Answered by: Guy Thompson
QUESTION:I'm in need of a fast growing evergreen screening shrub/small tree. I'm considering the Evergreen Sumac but before I go further I need to know if this plant will thrive and remain evergreen in the Dallas (Rockwall) area. The soil in my yard is a hard packed clay and practically impossible to keep loose. In fact its about the worst soil I have ever encountered. Your thoughts or alternative recommendation please.
The Recommended Species list for northeast Texas at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center shows Rhus aromatica (Fragrant sumac) but not Rhus virens (Evergreen sumac) as recommended for the Dallas area. However, Dallas/Fort Worth landscape architects are using Evergreen sumac with success. You might well contact the landscaper for planting tips.
Mr. Smarty Plants expects that Evergreen sumac can be successful, but only if the soil is suitably amended to give good drainage. The ideal solution would be a raised bed in which you spade up at least a foot of clay from the planting site, mix it with an equal quantity of builders sand, and add a generous amount of peat moss.
The other sumac, Fragrant sumac, is somewhat more tolerant of poor drainage. It is also an interesting plant, showing different faces (see images below) as the seasons progress. Although it is deciduous, planting this sumac two deep would yield a fairly dense screen of winter twigs.

The present report on Lithuania is the fourth of a new series on "Investing in Youth" which builds on the expertise of the OECD on youth employment, social support and skills. This series covers both OECD countries and countries in the process of accession to the OECD, as well as some emerging economies. The report provides a detailed diagnosis of the youth labour market and VET system in Lithuania from an international comparative perspective, and offers tailored recommendations to help improve school-to-work transitions. It also provides an opportunity for Lithuania to learn from the innovative measures that other countries have taken to strengthen the skills of youth and their employment outcomes, notably through the implementation of a Youth Guarantee.
First published in 2005, this annual report provides an overview of structural policy developments in OECD countries from a comparative perspective.
Marked slowdown in OECD GDP growth in fourth quarter of 2015
Despite having low government spending, Switzerland scores highly in various public policy outcomes, including health, education and transportation. But, as the population grows and ages, efficiency of public spending will have to rise to maintain low tax rates.
High house prices are being supported by very low interest rates, immigration-fuelled population growth and smaller family units, while demand is being bolstered by mortgage interest tax deductibility and institutional investors.
This paper uses data envelopment analysis (DEA) to assess the efficiency of welfare spending in a sample of OECD countries around 2012, focussing on health care, secondary education and general public services.
Achieving strong growth in the global economy remains elusive, with only a modest recovery in advanced economies and slower activity in emerging markets, according to the OECD's latest Interim Economic Outlook.
This 2016 OECD Economic Survey of Costa Rica examines recent economic developments, policies and prospects. The special chapters cover: Inclusive growth and Productivity.
Costa Rica has made impressive economic, social and environmental progress, but further institutional and policy reforms will be necessary to ensure stronger and more inclusive growth, according to the first-ever OECD Economic Assessment of Costa Rica.
This review assesses the Mexican pension system according to the OECD best practices and guidelines, and draws on international experiences and examples to make recommendations on how to improve it. It provides an international perspective on Mexico's retirement income provision and a short and focused review of the Mexican pension system. The review covers all components of the pension system: public and private pension provision for public and private-sector workers. It provides recommendations, using OECD's best practices in pension design, on how to improve the Mexican pension system and thus ameliorate the retirement income that people may receive from the pension system.

Choosing the Right College
Despite federal aid, institutional incentives, and scholarships, paying for college is still a financial burden. Most students have $100k in debt before their 21st birthday. To avoid high student debt, research all of your financial options to avoid taking out loans. Apply for scholarships to supplement your financial aid package, and find alternatives to loans.
Having information is the first step towards saving money. Make a list of what you are looking for in a college experience, and find the cheapest way to meet most of your goals. Some students simply want to get a diploma while other students want an exciting campus life, specific location, and athletic and social opportunities. Determine what sacrifices you are willing to make to minimize your debt. Every student has to give up a luxury to afford college, so prioritize what you want in your college experience to make your decision.
Consider These Questions
Why is college important to me?
College means different things to different people. Is college important to you because it pushes you towards your dream job or is it important because you are the first in your family to attend? Answer questions like these to and pick why college is most important to you. Focus on campus qualities and a set of criteria and not brand names. The less attached you are to an institution the more options you will have when choosing a school.
Where do I see myself in 10 years?
If your dream job is a trade like construction or welding, paying $50k a year for college is unnecessary and uneconomical. Look for the best value for the education needed you're your job. Doctors and engineers will pay more for a 4-year degree than general degrees. For general liberal arts degrees like English, education, communications etc. big-name schools are not important. Unless you want to be a doctor, or work in another high-demand field, avoid the brand names and the higher bill.
What do I want in my college experience?
Some students want independence, with flexible scheduling and a manageable work load to keep a part-time job. Other student want to fully submerge in the college atmosphere. These students want to eat, sleep, and play on campus. Students who fully immerse themselves in the college experience will have more debt than students willing to commute. Colleges cushion tuition to compensate for the lifestyle, so if you want the full experience there are options to make school more affordable.

If the reason you aren't purchasing the game is because of rating system/cultural censorship, how would you make the logical leap that pirating an uncensored copy of the game is then hypocritical? I think maybe you're confused and thinking he's pirating a censored copy, which probably would be a waste of time.

British rock band Coldplay started its set at the Glastonburg Festival on Sunday by broadcasting excerpts of the iconic speech Charlie Chaplin delivered in The Great Dictator, the 1940 political satire in which the famous filmmaker/movie star played a Jewish barber.

Waterford - The Eugene O'Neill Theater Center looked to its past and future - and showcased performances from its storied history - as the theater development mecca celebrated its 50th anniversary at a Friday gala.
O'Neill Executive Director Preston Whiteway said, "This is a special moment in time for the O'Neill. Our 50th anniversary. But it's also a very special moment in all of American theater. The O'Neill's founding in 1964 marked a profound shift in the way plays are born, the way theater is made in this country. And it all began, and is thanks to, Waterford, Connecticut, and a man sailing by this beach 50 years ago (referring to O'Neill founder George C. White)."
The O'Neill, Whiteway said, created a new model in the theater world and "revolutionized the American theater and the way a play was prepared for full production." Here, writers could work on their plays with esteemed professionals; they would explore, ask questions and see staged readings in front of audiences. And the O'Neill mission has remained the same over the years: "To discover, nurture, and support new work and new artists in the bold tradition of America's greatest dramatist, Eugene O'Neill."
Entertainment at the gala, naturally, showcased work from each of the center's vaunted conferences. Sam Wilmott, a former composer-in-residence at the National Music Theater Conference, sang a number from a musical he's writing about the life and work of Roald Dahl. Tyler Bunch and James Godwin, both of whom have been part of the National Puppetry Conference, did some puppet improvisation.
While the gala was still running at deadline, it was scheduled to include a scene from "Moon for the Misbegotten" performed by Reed Birney - who was nominated for a Tony this year for his performance in "Casa Valentina" on Broadway and who has acted at the O'Neill often over the years - and Sally Wingert. That was a nod to the inaugural National Playwright Conference in 1965, which ended with director Jose Quintero, a renowned interpreter of O'Neill's plays, staging a sequence from "Moon for the Misbegotten."
Beyond the performances, the O'Neill's current expansion was a happy topic for the center's leaders. Board Chairman Tom Viertel told the crowd about the construction project that's in full swing.
Being built on campus: seven new dormitory cottages, creating living spaces for 65 students, artists and faculty; a laundry building; and a new rehearsal hall. In addition, existing buildings will be renovated to create more rehearsal space.
The expanded dorm space will allow for the O'Neill to create a new program it has wanted to establish for a while: a musical theater version of its National Theater Institute for college students. The National Music Theater Institute will be a one-semester program for undergraduates.
One of the new cottages, too, will be used for artist residencies during the winter.
Viertel said that the O'Neill will be able to lead the American theater in the next 50 years as it has done for the last 50 and that the center is "on the cusp of an incredibly exciting time."
Kerry O'Malley, who was a fellow at the O'Neill's Cabaret and Performance last year, sang at the gala and said of the O'Neill - echoing comments by others - "This place is special."
She added, "It feels like you're home. When you come back, that's how you're greeted."

Baiba Svenca's insight:
Useful tips about how to present your stuff at webinars.
Webinar has become most popular method for communicating your idea to large audience. Numbers of webinars are rapidly expanding, but quality is getting affected. Webinar is all about recording presentations so that people could review it later. Affecting quality doesn't mean that your presentation quality will be deteriorated; it is in the sense of providing information...
