Almost Acoustic Christmas set times revealed
Actually, you now can see more than just the rundown for this weekend's rapidly sold out and hotly anticipated Almost Acoustic Christmas shows at Gibson Amphitheatre. KROQ has posted the entire booklet for its 21st annual bash, including both set times and all the usually goofy/ironic/smartass Q-and-A biographies of all the bands on the bill.
Just how rapidly did tickets disappear? The first night was done in 24 minutes, the second in an even more impressive 13. Is that any indication of people's preferences? Or just that Night 2 is more top-to-bottom strong than Night 1, which is merely top-heavy?
Interesting to note, too, that Saturday is scheduled to go much later than Sunday, with the Smashing Pumpkins not even slated to go on until 10:45 -- and since when did a headliner ever spin into view on time?
Also, there have been rumors of a surprise No Doubt appearance, though that rumor persists just about every year. Odds were that if it was going to happen, it would be on Night 1, but with Sunday's headliner Phoenix slated to take the stage a good 40 minutes earlier than Billy Corgan and the Pumpkins start rocking on Saturday, I wonder if Gwen Stefani might not turn up on Night 2 instead.
I suppose it makes slightly more sense to plop O.C.'s most successful pop band into the less heavy lineup of Vampire Weekend, Brandon Flowers, the Temper Trap and the like, though it would be cool to see them back-to-back with Social Distortion. Just doesn't seem likely to me.
In the meantime, to whet your appetite, enjoy the above and below clips of Mike Ness & Co., who after more than 30 years together finally made their television debut Monday night on Jimmy Kimmel Live! "Machine Gun Blues" is from Hard Times and Nursery Rhymes, their Epitaph debut and first album in nearly seven years, due Jan. 18. And "Story of My Life," well, you oughta know that one by now.

Traffic stop at airport nets nearly 11 pounds of marijuana
SALT LAKE CITY — Four people traveling cross-country have been booked into jail after police found nearly 11 pounds of marijuana in their car during a traffic stop at the Salt Lake City International Airport.
The four, identified by the Salt Lake County Jail as Louis George Bagliere, 65, Sahar Grecu, 35, Renee Nicole Wilson, 38, and Daniel Lee Winslow, 46, were stopped for driving 20 mph through a 10 mph zone, airport spokeswoman Barbara Gann said.
They apparently were having car trouble during a trip from California to Detroit and had come to the airport hoping to rent a car, Gann said. Airport police searched their car based on issues raised during a background check of the occupants, she said.
The find is not the first at the airport, Gann said.
"There are times, just because it's a high-volume, high-traffic area," she said, including people who try to dispose of drugs in their possession before entering the airport. "This time it was during a traffic stop."

President Bush has signed an executive memorandum creating a spectrum policy initiative to develop recommendations for improving the nation's spectrum management policies and procedures. The Department of Commerce will head the initiative.
Although the new initiative did not specifically address the transition to digital television, the government's focus is designed to free up spectrum for greater economic development and for areas such as public safety, law enforcement and scientific research.
The White House noted that in recent years the United States has witnessed enormous growth in spectrum-based technologies and uses of wireless voice and data communications systems by businesses, consumers and the government. Specifically, the president cited the explosive growth of Wi-Fi systems that allow short-distance wireless computing in homes and businesses.
As part of the initiative, a federal spectrum task force will produce a set of recommendations for improving spectrum management policies and procedures to increase the federal government's efficiency and use of the spectrum. The Department of Commerce will also hold a series of public meetings to assist in its development of a set of recommendations for improving policies and procedures for use of spectrum.
Within one year, the Secretary of Commerce will provide the president with recommendations to modernize and improve the nation's spectrum management system.
It is expected that the spectrum initiative will bring new pressure on terrestrial broadcasters to set a hard date for the transition to digital television. The issue has gained increased congressional support in recent months and it is expected to gain traction in 2005.

About rebel XS´s sensor
Mar 9, 2014
Own and still use the rebel xs. Because it is a 10mp camera it seems its pixel pitch is good enough. However, can somebody comment on how ancient (or current) is the sensor in this camera?? Is it a good idea to invest in some other camera with a newer sensor?? By the way, currently it is possible to get locally a travel zoom sony hx30v at about $225.00usd. Do you think it is a good camera at that price?? Thanks.

Attempt to raise minimum wage in Utah doesn't gain traction
"It would impact us a little bit," he said. "But I don't think it would be a gigantic problem."
Nic Dunn, Utah Department of Workforce Services spokesman, said a minimum wage change wouldn't make a big difference in the long run.
Employers would initially feel the increased costs, which could mean fewer jobs or hours for those employed, he said.
"In the short run, we may see some of that effect taking place," Dunn said. "But in the long run, it will kind of even out."
Lawmakers noted that state and local government would pay millions of dollars each year in higher wages under the bill.
Legislative fiscal analysts estimated it would cost state government about $3 million this year and as much as $25 million each year starting in 2015. It could cost county government $6 million to $10 million a year, they estimated.
Sen. Lyle Hillyard, R-Logan, the Senate budget chairman, said he couldn't support the bill because he doesn't know how the state would pay for it.
Utah State University graduate student Lindsey Herde has been supporting herself as a server at three restaurants the past six years. Her income comes exclusively from tips, and the $2.13 an hour pay goes directly to taxes.
"Usually they send the check, that's zero, zero, zero," she said. "Serving pays well with tips. That's why you do it. But off the hourly, nothing."
Herde said one of her biggest worries is that her income isn't reliable. Some nights she'll make $15 in four hours, while other nights she'll make more than $100 in that time.
"I think anything higher would make a difference," she said. "If someone stiffs me, I pay money because I still have to tip (bussers and bartenders) out of the total bill, even if they don't tip me."
Herde said if the minimum wage were increased to $10.25, she might consider taking a different, more stable job to support herself.

Magnussen: Adversity only makes me hungrier to win
McLaren driver Kevin Magnussen has said that he is hungrier than ever to return to the front of the field after three disappointing races for the team. The Danish youngster made an incredible start to his Formula 1 career, finishing second on debut at the Australian Grand Prix. However, since then, the McLaren MP4-29 has struggled in cooler conditions, resulting in a yield of just ten points between Magnussen and teammate Jenson Button. None of these points have come in the last two races, and in China both drivers endured anonymous races to finish 11th and 13th. Magnussen took to Twitter to tell his fans that he is more determined than ever. 'Last few races have been very difficult for...

If you are a vaper you known how addicting it can be to continually purchase e-juice for your sub-ohm. You walk into a vape store looking for something fruity and walk out spending 100's later on new juice. Whether you are new to vaping or someone that has been vaping a long time, you may come across saying to yourself I wonder what this flavor would taste like, or "I wonder if I could ever create it" Once you learn to make your own e-juice creations it can be fun and exciting to experiment with new flavors.
Making your own e-cig liquid is like making a new recipe for dinner. You will need a basic starter of ingredients to get you going. You will also want to make sure you understand all the terms of what everything is and the correct ratios. Think of it as a big science experiment, if you do not know how much or what ratio it will not come out as you expected. Read more

During the great California gold rush, early prospectors sifted through rocks and streams in the hopes of finding a fortune. But bigger hauls were often claimed by going below the surface and digging deeply into mines, where a treasure trove of gold lay waiting to be unearthed. The gold rush may be ancient history, but there's still potential treasure to be tapped--and crises that can be prevented too-by companies that are willing to delve deep into their dark data.

Sydney's chill a taste of things to comeBen McBurney, Monday June 17, 2013 - 16:13 EST
Sydneysiders were reminded winter has arrived this morning, as the city shivered through its coldest morning since September, with more to come.
A cold air mass combined with generally clear skies to cause the mercury to dip to 8.5 degrees early this morning. Those on their morning run or walk would have really noticed it, as the wind chill made it feel more like five degrees.
Some other surrounding suburbs also saw their coldest night since spring, with Bankstown dipping to 3.3 degrees, and Terrey Hills 5.9 degrees.
Sydney has done well to escape the nippy nights this year, with the city's minimum only just below average for June. In fact, it has been five years since nights have taken this long to become this cool this late in the year.
The following few nights should be a bit warmer due to increased cloud cover. However, the chilly nights look like returning from about Friday as skies become a bit clearer.
Similarly cold nights should persist into at least early next week.

After over a year of beta testing, Internet Explorer 8 has finally gone gold. The complete, production-ready release of the new browser is available right now from Microsoft's Internet Explorer website.
Microsoft offers installers for Windows Vista, Windows XP, Windows Server 2008, and Windows Server 2003 in both 32-bit and 64-bit flavors. In most cases, it looks like the new browser is a sub-30MB download, with the Vista x86 version weighing in at a scant 13.2MB. Installation requires a reboot, though, and it overwrites previously installed versions of IE—web designers be warned.
Once installed, IE8 asks users to import bookmarks from Firefox, Opera, and Safari (but not Google Chrome). The software feels about as snappy as the latter two, although the way it briefly blanks out the screen when loading new pages makes it appear somewhat less smooth. Oh, and of course, there's a plethora of new features on the menu: the smart address bar, color-coded tabs, "accelerators," "web slices," and a new, more standards-compliant rendering engine. You can get a complete tour of the new browser here.

A 21-year-old Cokato man faces the possibility of spending 20 years in prison for allegedly stealing a shotgun from a rural Lafayette farm. Aaron Michael Josephson has been charged with felony burglary, theft of a firearm and theft for the crime. He reportedly was working for the farmer at the time of the break-in, and allegedly admitted to police that he entered the home and took and shotgun and change jar because he was owed back-pay. He told authorities he planned on returning the items after he was paid. He was arrested after threatening another person with the firearm.

Watson ends Britain`s 24-Year wait for WTA title
Last Updated: Sunday, October 14, 2012 - 15:36
Osaka: Heather Watson beat Chang Kai-Chen of Taiwan in the final of the Japan Open tennis here Sunday to end Britain`s 24-year wait for a WTA Tour singles title.
It was a maiden career singles final for both players, and the 20-year-old Watson battled to a 7-5, 5-7, 7-6(4) win in 3 hours and 13 minutes.
The last Briton to capture a WTA singles title was Sara Gomer, who won the 1988 Northern California Open defeating local player Robin White 6-4, 7-5.
Last month, Watson`s compatriot Laura Robson reached the singles final at the Guangzhou International Women`s Open, but lost to Hsieh Su-Wei of Taiwan 6-3, 5-7, 6-4.

If Congress can't reach agreement and the debt ceiling isn't increased, the U.S. could default on its loans, and that would cause interest rates to go up. Ryan Deckert, President of the Oregon Business Association, says that uncertainty would cause consumers to stop spending and companies would stop hiring. The gains from the economic recovery would be lost and Deckert says there's a good chance the economy would fall back into recession.

The invention relates to a method and a device for determining the concentration of a substance in an in-vitro or in-vivo specimen containing body liquid according to the preamble of the independent claims.
Radio wave spectroscopy has been known to provide promising potential in the in-vitro and in-vivo determination of the concentration of glucose and other substances in body fluids. In particular, this technology is of substantial interest for the determination of glucose concentration in blood and/or inter- or intracellular liquid. A device for measuring blood level glucose is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,792,668, where two electrodes are brought into direct contact with the human body and the impedance is measured between them.
Despite its potential, the technology has not yet been used in commercial devices, which is attributed to the limited accuracy of the presently known solutions.
Hence, it is the goal of the invention to provide a method and device that allow to increase the reliability of this type of measurement.
This goal is reached by the independent claims.
In a first aspect of the invention, the first electrode is electrically insulated from the specimen. Hence, the measured parameter does not depend on the surface conditions of the specimen. Rather, the signal is capacitively coupled to the specimen and the measured parameter depends therefore primarily on the conditions within the specimen. The parameter measured in this way can then be converted to the desired concentration, e.g. by using calibration data.
Preferably, at least two electrodes are provided, wherein the modulated voltage is applied between them. By using two electrodes, a defined field can be established within the specimen. For best signals, it has been found advantageous to place the second electrode in electric contact with the specimen.
The measured parameter preferably depends on the electrical impedance at the electrode(s). It has been found that the concentration of various substances, in particular glucose, affects the real or imaginary part of this impedance because it changes the loss and/or dielectric constant of body fluid.
Preferably, the electrode forms part of a resonant circuit, which is operated at or close to its resonance frequency. Under such conditions, a change of the dielectric or loss properties of the specimen leads to substantial shifts in the parameters of the resonant circuit and can therefore be measured with high sensitivity.
A further aspect of the invention is directed to a device particularly suited for in-vivo measurements of the human body. This device comprises an elongate electrode having a width much smaller than its length. A holder is provided to mount the electrode to an arm or a leg with the longitudinal axis of the electrode extending parallel thereto. In this way, a large interaction space is established, which allows to measure the desired concentration with a higher level of accuracy.
The method and device of the present invention has been found to be especially suited for measuring the glucose concentration in body fluid.
The invention will be better understood and objects other than those set forth above will become apparent when consideration is given to the following detailed description thereof. Such description makes reference to the annexed drawings, wherein:
Both signal paths 4, 6 are fed to a measuring circuit 7, which determines the relative amplitude A of both signals as well as, optionally, their mutual phase shift phi. Relative amplitude A can e.g. be the amplitude of first signal path 4 in units of the amplitude of second signal path 6 (wherein the amplitudes are the peak values of the sine waves).
The output signal of measuring circuit 7 is fed to a microprocessor 8, which also controls the operation of VCO 1.
As can be seen from
Inductance L of the device of
Capacitor C of the device of
To measure the concentration of a substance in the body fluid of the specimen, microprocessor 8 can e.g. initiate a measurement cycle consisting of a frequency sweep of VCO 1. The sweep should start at a frequency fmin below the expected resonance frequency f0 of the resonant circuit 5 and extend to a frequency fmax above resonance frequency f. During this sweep, the electrical properties of signal path 4 will change substantially, while those of signal path 6 will vary only slightly. The amplitude determined by measuring circuit A will therefore fall to a minimum A0 at f0, as shown in
As can be shown, the dependence of A0 on the dielectric constant ε(f) and, in particular, on the loss or conductance ρ(f) of the fluid in the specimen is stronger than at off-resonance frequencies, which allows a sensitive measurement of the liquid's response to the electric field.
This is shown in
It is presently believed that the specific impedance of the body fluid, i.e. the specific conductivity ρ(f) and the dielectric constant ε(f) in a frequency range between 10 MHz and 2000 MHz, and in particular between 20 MHz and 70 MHz, are a function of the properties and concentration of the salty (ionic) components of the human body. These salty components primarily include solvated sodium, potassium, calcium and other minor ions and their counter ions, the primary counter ion being chloride. Other non-ionic solvated substances, in particular substances having a similar range of size as the ion complexes, can have an impact on the impedance pattern of the salty body fluid components, provided these substances occur in sufficient concentration. In particular, glucose has a similar range of size and is present in concentrations giving rise to a well detectable variation of the amplitude A0 at resonance frequency.
In a simple embodiment, only amplitude A0 is measured as a parameter for the determination of the concentration. Suitable calibration data stored in microprocessor 8 is used to convert amplitude A0 into the desired concentration level.
The effects exploited for the measurement are temperature dependent. In order to obtain high accuracy over a wide temperature range, temperature sensor 10 is brought into thermal contact with the specimen to be measured. The signals from temperature sensor 10 are used to correct the obtained result, again using calibration data obtain from calibration measurements.
A proper design of the electrodes of capacitor C allows to optimize the accuracy and sensitivity of the present device in a given application. A preferred geometry of the device for in-vivo measurements in a living body is shown in
The device comprises a housing 13 closed on one side by an electrode plate 14. The display 11 is arranged opposite electrode plate 14. The electronic circuits 16 are arranged between electrode plate 14 and display 11.
Electrode plate 14 comprises an electrically insulating substrate 17 with a strip electrode 18 and a top or ring electrode 19 arranged on an outer side 20 thereof. An inner side 21 of insulating substrate 17 is covered by a bottom electrode 22. A plurality of though-contacts 23 are provided to connect ring electrode 19 to bottom electrode 22. A further through-contact 24 connects one end of strip electrode 18 to a small bond pad 25 arranged in an opening 26 of bottom electrode 22 on inner side 21.
Temperature sensor 10 is mounted to bottom electrode 22. The large number of through-contacts 23 ensure that bottom electrode 22 follows the temperature of ring electrode 18 and therefore the temperature of the specimen closely.
A typical size of electrode plate 14 is 32 mm×21 mm. Bottom electrode 22 covers all of inner side 21 except for the small opening 26 and is therefore much larger than strip electrode 18.
Leads 28 are provided to connect bottom electrode 22, contact pad 26 and temperature sensor 10 to the electronic circuits 16.
While bottom electrode 22 and ring electrode 19 are connected to ground, strip electrode 18 is connected to inductance L of resonant circuit 5. Therefore, the capacitor C is formed between strip electrode 18 as a first electrode and ring electrode 19 and bottom electrode 22 as a second electrode. In other words, the second electrode consists of two electrode layers: a top electrode layer formed by ring electrode 19 and a bottom electrode layer formed by bottom electrode 22.
An electrically insulating cover layer 29 covers all of strip electrode 18 but not ring electrode 19. In other words, strip electrode 18 is arranged between substrate 17 and cover layer 29. Cover layer 29 is preferably of a hard, moisture- and salt-impervious material such as glass, ceramics, a polycarbonate or diamond-like carbon (DLC) of a thickness preferably between 50 and 100 μm.
As can be seen in
As described above, a pure sine voltage has been found to be sufficient for obtaining accurate measurements. However, other types for modulated voltages, such as square-wave voltages or pulses can be used as well. In this case, measuring circuit 7 is preferably provided with suitable filters for selectively sampling one or more frequency components. At least one measured frequency component is preferably close to the resonance frequency of resonant circuit 5 for exploiting the circuit's high sensitivity to the specimen's properties at that frequency.
The electrode geometry can be varied for adapting it to a given application. While the design of
Ring electrode 19 does not necessarily have to form a closed ring as long as it provides sufficient grounding of the body part to be measured. It can e.g. also have U-shape or consist of two stripes parallel to and laterally enclosing strip electrode 18. Ring electrode 19 can also be omitted completely or be covered by cover layer 29, in particular for in-vitro measurements where noise is low.
Part of a further embodiment of the circuit is shown in
A possible arrangement of the electrodes is shown in
The device of
A comparison of the device of
It is found that the transmission and reflection show different dependencies on the concentrations of various compounds of the body fluid. Hence, a combined measurement of reflection and transmission allows a further refinement of the measurement by elimination of the influence of compounds not of interest for the quantity to be measured.
A third embodiment of a circuit is shown in
In the examples shown so far, the invention was used in a device for qualitatively or quantitatively displaying the concentration a substance (such as glucose) in body liquid. The invention can, however, e.g. also be used in devices that-automatically administer medication to a body, such as an insulin pump, where the amount and/or time for administering the medication depends on the measured concentration. It can also be used in any other type of device that requires the measurement of the concentration of a substance in body fluid.
While there are shown and described presently preferred embodiments of the invention, it is to be distinctly understood that the invention is not limited thereto but may be otherwise variously embodied and practiced within the scope of the following claims.

Fantastic follow-up to the first season,
Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: Rome - The Complete Second Season [2006] [DVD] (DVD)
When reviewing Season 2 of HBO/BBC's Rome, I was struck by the immense difficulties faced by the producers of the series, while trying to remain faithful to the source material and juggle the inherent limits of the TV format. Overall, I think they did a good job; although the tweed-clad classicists will already have boiled over into a critical puddle at the inaccuracies they have witnessed, I thought the production was excellent. The only criticism I have is that the series effectively compressed the 15-year period from Caesar's murder to Anthony's defeat at Actium into 12 episodes, and this forced the action on at a breakneck pace. In terms of character development, Pullo and Vorenus now find themselves facing a desperate situation; Vorenus' wife is dead, his children are slaves, and he is backing the losing side in an impending civil war, while Pullo, similarly bereft, backs the winning horse. Among the aristocrats, we see a changing of the guard, as the old political order is whittled down by debauchery, treachery and a stubborn inability to see that the Republic's days are numbered, while Octavian's brilliant political manoeuvering sees him, finally, installed as the Republic's 'First Citizen', effectively a King in all but name. The final scenes, where Octavian's triumphal procession features a ghoulish tableau with the mouldering corpses of Anthony and Cleopatra propped up on a cart, send a shiver down the spine. What a pity it is, then, that HBO/BBC have decided not to make another series, and that many plot devices have been necessarily dovetailed with unseemly haste. The BBC's classic 'I,Claudius' picks up where this series left off.

BELLEVILLE, Ill. (KMOX) – The Belleville woman who was in prison for trying to kill her newborn baby when she was charged with killing another newborn has been indicted on murder and homicide concealment charges.
The St. Clair County Grand Jury has ruled that there's enough evidence to try Elyse Mamino in the death of an infant, whose decomposed body was found in a dresser drawer in the basement of the Belleville apartment where Mamino lived in 2007. The child had been wrapped in a towel and a plastic bag.
Mamino was serving six years for trying to drown her newborn baby in a toilet during a party in a Columbia, Ill. home in 2008, when a tip came in that allowed prosecutors to proceed with the charges.
Mamino is scheduled to be arraigned Friday.

AppleCare+ now available in UK, Italy and France - service fees raised $30 in US
Following the launch of the iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C, Apple has rolled out its AppleCare+ warranty to customers in the UK, Italy and France - after first launching in the US with the iPhone 5.
AppleCare+ is an extension of AppleCare. Since AppleCare does not provide protection against spills, drops and other sorts of accidental damage, AppleCare+ does, at an added price. Customers can have their devices fixed for an additional service fee per incident, at up to two incidents per plan holder.
In the UK, customers who want AppleCare+ will have to sign-up their iPhone or iPad within 30 days of purchase at £79.00. When accidental damage occurs and a customer wants to have their device fixed, they will be require to pay a £39 service fee.
With the launch of AppleCare+ in Europe, the warranty saw a price hike in the US. Service fees attached to AppleCare+ have increased by $30 to $79, still covering two accidental damage occurrences.
Additionally, AppleCare+ will cover the iPod touch and iPod Classic for the first time. The plans run at $59 with an incident fee of $29.

No brakes,
This review is from: Premium Rush (DVD + UV Copy) [2012] (DVD)
Shame this fun if predictable and lightweight thriller flopped. A fun film with a good cast, this sees bike courier Wille played by Joseph Gordon Levitt get involved with a smuggling ring after what is supposed to be a routine pick up goes wrong and he is chased through New York by an obsessed dirty cop played by Michael Shannon. It's brainless and routine but a lot of fun to watch and the cast make the film work. Just sit back and enjoy a fun ride.

Mozilla Re-Thinking Firefox EULA
Is there a need for a separate EULA (end user license agreement) in the open source Mozilla browser? To date there has been, but that EULA is going to change very soon.
In a conversation with InternetNews.com, Mitchell Baker, Chairperson of Mozilla, admitted that Mozilla may not need both the EULA and open source license, with the EULA the likely casualty. That said, there is a need for something in between the open source license and the user which is what Baker and Mozilla are actively working on.
The issue of Firefox's EULA has raised concerns in the Linux community lately with questions arising about the need and validity of the EULA.
"Initially when we first shipped Firefox the idea of shipping Firefox under a binary source code license seemed odd so we created a EULA and we're now coming to the conclusion that is not necessary," said Baker. "So the license agreement that we've been working on will now say, 'dear end user you're using FOSS software and here are the open source licenses to look at if you'd like too and enjoy them."

Industrial SBC builds on Raspberry Pi Compute Module
On Kickstarter, a "MyPi" industrial SBC using the RPi Compute Module offers a mini-PCIe slot, serial port, wide-range power, and modular expansion. You might wonder why in 2016 someone would introduce a sandwich-style single board computer built around the aging, ARM11 based COM version of the original Raspberry Pi, the Raspberry Pi Compute Module. First off, there are still plenty of industrial applications that don't need much CPU horsepower, and second, the Compute Module is still the only COM based on Raspberry Pi hardware, although the cheaper, somewhat COM-like Raspberry Pi Zero, which has the same 700MHz processor, comes close.

Survey: More than 60,000 civil partnerships have taken place in the past seven years
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
Regarding CPs for heteroseuxals which I agree with, I had a nasty email exchange with Tim Loughton before third reading who claimed it wasn't a wrecking amendment to delay the Marriage Bill. I asked him why for the past 9 years he wasn't campaigning for a change in the CP law and he refused to comment. It most definitely was an wrecking amendment. From my understanding, CPs for heterosexuals will be under review in the coming months as well as other issues such as equal pension rights and humanist weddings.
So, that's 120,000 people who would otherwise have been disadvantaged, emotionally and otherwise, had the law not been changed. I, and my partner of thirty-two years, are grateful to our elected politicians for doing the right thing and for making gay partnerships legally possible.
I honestly see civil partnerships as separate but equal. Equal marriage is the only way to go. After receiving a letter from My Labour MP in Stoke on Trent South who shall remain nameless who espoused the separate but equal meme in his letter I am so pissed.
My husband and I are married, thankfully in a place which allows it legally.
Just as some say that the Marriage Bill is unequal because of the lack of parity for pension rights and other issues, CPs by definition aren't equal regardless of the rights they convey. They too have imbalances in pension rights and straights are banned from having access to them if they choose not to marry. CPs are not marriages under the law. Is your MP Robert Flello by chance?
Of course, opponents of equal marriage will use this information and say that the new law wasn't necessary and that gays didn't want it. Wait for the loons to start ranting now that Parliament resumes today.
There will be a lot more marriages once the law takes effect, not only because of transitions from Civil Partnerships, but because many would not have seen value in a civil partnership, since it was a second class category.
It would be interesting to know how many gay couples have chosen not to ….
I certainly want state marriage to be the norm but looking at the numbers is just wonderful to see so many gay people out, proud, living as a couple openly.
It may not be for everyone but look at these numbers. FANTASTIC.
Now we need to sort out pensions etc.
so thats 7000 per year,
we've seen a couple of years increase following declines between 06 and 09.
25% of the CPs take place in London.
for the first time the number of female CP's outnumber male.
There was a rise of 20% in number of CP;s being disolved.
we can conclude that the majority of gay people have no desire to copy heterosexual models of relationships.its the minority of london based middle class gays that are obsessed with CP's, everyone else is busy doing what gays do best partying and having sex! vive la hedonism
Having the choice is the important thing Rodders. It wouldn't matter if just one couple married.
Sex and Hedonism is fine if you can fix your age to be never above 25 and have an invincible immune system. But even then it would become boring, dispiriting and empty.

We are leaving for Paris tomorrow! Yippee!!!
My daughter (almost age 4) adores dolls. I'd love to find a lovely doll for her while we are in Paris. Definitely prefer a "hold and love" type doll, rather than a "admire while it sits on a shelf" type doll (or maybe one of each!). Any recommendations for places to shop for such? I know the department stores have toy areas but wondered if there are other places that would make for a special outing with my little girl.

Imaginarium is a lovely toy store. Although I have 2 boys, I do recall them having nice dolls. There is just one store in Paris:
This is in a small mall near Gare St Lazare.

Just one thing I might think of--be sure it is made in France. On one trip I wanted to bring grandson "something" made in France. The one thing I found was a marionette.

When we were in France and Italy several years ago we bought our daughter a My Doll (http://www.ardentoys.co.uk/index.php?act=viewCat&catId=56) in Florence. She absolutely loved it, and when we returned to Europe as a family, she brought her doll with her for the trip. We made the doll a "passport" and even showed it to the passport control guy who got a chuckle.
"My Dolls" are made in Italy, but you can probably buy them in France. I know they sell them in the UK. They are very soft, therefore a perfect "hold and love" doll. You can buy clothes and accessories for them as well. You may be looking for a doll made in France, but if you can't find what you are looking for I highly recommend checking out the "My Doll" line.
Have a great trip!

The room was big and comfortable, the view was wonderful, the area was quiet, the room service breakfast was fine. I enjoyed my stay there and I should go again.
The bathroom and generally the furniture was not very well maintenance probably some things like the sink the shower need replacement. The hotel is not very well organized regarding the cleaning. Better to give importance in the cleaning because is a pity and loose points from this.
Perfect sea view, friendly staff,very quietly area,free wi-fi
No negatives
It is a wunderfull place with a phantastic view! The staff is excellent! The hotel is very clean.
It is a little fare from the City!
Location and Services it can offer, although they were not those of a five star hotel.
Service, Service, Service
Medium size and location, décor.
Rather noisy until very late at night with loud music from pool area and partying.
The Margi is a lovely boutique hotel with a nice ambiance. The communal areas are tastefully decorated with plenty of "mood" lighting during the evening. The pool area is lovely and although the pool is small there are usually only a handful of guests so there is no overcrowding. Drinks around the pool are expensive. The rooms are comfortable if a little on the small side but nicely furnished. The service was fabulous and I would definitely stay there again.
The drinks around the pool area were a little overpriced. Beds were a little short.
Quaintness of the room.
Cleanliness of the corridor, rooms aminties, a/c, tv chanels, and the gem.
The location and the spa premisses were great. Nicholas at the pool was very friendly and helpfull. The chef and the food at Nobu were just perfect
Very nice and helpful staff. Spacious apartment. Great view. We had a great time!
Furniture old fashioned.
Spacious apt,nice staff,nice neighborhood,about a 10 min walk to beach,good for budget traveller.
Somewhat dated furniture. Didn't like the pool,didn't look very clean.
Was pet friendly and the staff was very friendly as well. Have the best advice on how to travel to the city of athens and back to the hotel. Will be coming back again next year for sure.
