Disgruntled tennis fans have been turned away from Auckland's tennis arena because organisers had reverted to a wet weather plan despite blazing sunshine.
The tennis-loving public had turned up to see the second round of qualifying for the ASB Classic, which begins tomorrow, but were stunned to find out that they wouldn't be allowed into the venue.
With the weather for today forecast to be poor, tournament director Karl Budge decided to put his wet weather plan into operation and play the matches on indoor courts, where there is no public access.
However, the bad weather didn't eventuate and the matches were played under glorious sunshine leaving members of the public frustrated.
"What does the weather have to do with this decision? If the weather is poor they don't play and we go home. If the weather's good they play and we watch," Stephen Mason said.
"There are matches being played at the moment, we've come some distance to see them.
"People have come a long way to watch this, Tennis Auckland should be promoting the game, not turning people away."
Budge explained, however, that the public couldn't be allowed in because he had already sent the security and first aid staff home.
"The weather forecast was for thunderstorms the whole way through," Budge said. "For health and safety regulations we've got to have the ambulance.
"If someone trips over I'm liable, we must have an ambulance person on site as a public venue."

DOVER, N.H. — A martial arts instructor was charged Saturday in the death of a 19-year-old University of New Hampshire student who disappeared days earlier.
Elizabeth "Lizzi" Marriott, a marine biology major who volunteered at the New England Aquarium, is believed to be dead and law enforcement officials continued to search for her body, Assistant Attorney General James Vara said Saturday.
Seth Mazzaglia, 29, of Dover, who's charged with second-degree murder, knew Marriott, Yara said, but he declined to say how or what led to Mazzaglia's arrest. He said police had "credible" information leading them to believe Marriott is dead, though he wouldn't elaborate.
A family friend, Dawn Downey of Westborough, Mass., described Marriott as an attractive young woman who was active in chorus in high school and was prom queen during her junior year. Marriott was helping to put herself through college by working at Target.
"She was just a good girl. That's probably what got her in trouble. She was too trusting, and she was beautiful. Those two things will kill you," Downey said.
Marriott had attended a class Tuesday night and made plans to visit friends in Dover. Her cellphone was last used in Dover that night, according to fliers that family members posted around town. Her car was later found in a parking lot on campus in Durham.
"We were greatly saddened to learn of Lizzi's death, and we extend our deepest sympathies to her family and friends," UNH President Mark W. Huddleston said in a statement. "Lizzi was a new member of the university community and will be missed in our classrooms. Our focus now will be on supporting our campus community during this difficult time."
The university was making counselors available to students. A moment of silence was planned in Marriott's honor at the school's hockey game Saturday night.
Marriott was a 2011 graduate of Westborough High School in Massachusetts. She lived with an aunt in Chester and commuted to the Durham campus. A message seeking comment was left with her parents, Robert and Melissa Marriott of Westborough.
Downey's daughter Nicole, who was Marriott's best friend, described Marriott as a "fun-loving and goofy" young woman who got along easily with others and had a wide circle of friends. She also was a good student who loved animals and science and volunteered at the New England Aquarium in Boston, Nicole Downey said.
"It was a shock to me when I found out she was missing. That was not like her at all," she said. "She was just all around a great person. I don't know why anyone would want to hurt her."
Mazzaglia, who graduated from the University of New Hampshire in 2006 with a bachelor's degree in theater, was active in the arts, performing in several dozen plays and musicals over the last decade in southern New Hampshire.
Mazzaglia is scheduled to be arraigned Monday. A working telephone number for him could not immediately be located. It was unclear whether he had a lawyer yet.

quietearth [Celluloid 07.07.08] movie apocalyptic news horror animation
We first reported on Roland Becerra's short film Dear Beautiful in October of last year when it played at Toronto After Dark and had been running the film festival circuit for a while. What was great about it was the cutting-edge animation and the apocalyptic storyline which revolves around a couple in Connecticut having marital problems and the world crumbling around them. You can watch the short in it's entirety here. While doing some research, I discovered it was going full-length, and after repeatedly hounding one of the production companies behind it, they finally passed my info off to Roland Becerra himself who got in touch with me a couple of months ago. Fast forward to this past Saturday when I got this exclusive trailer along with a couple of clips from the film in the mail (which unfortunately I can't share but I assure you they're stunning), and all I have to say is WOW. Roland's taken the animation in the feature to a whole new level! Here's the rundown: "The sudden appearance of exotic flowers in New Haven spawns an unprecedented epidemic rumored to be the result of a botched experiment by cosmetics giant, V-Zone. Paul and Lauren, a married couple, are caught between the catastrophe and their own troubled relationship when Lauren encounters one of the flowers and becomes infected. As her symptoms worsen, Paul's denial of Lauren's illness puts the couple in grave danger as the city is overrun with infected people, media frenzy, National Guard, protesters and a panicked populace. Struggling to maintain a normal daily life, Paul engages in a battle of wills with his best friend and business partner, Roger, as Paul tries to deny his wife's condition and Roger tries to take matters into his own hands. As the epidemic reaches a climax, Paul must confront the reality of his situation as well as the monster his friend has become." Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you the exclusive trailer, AFTER THE BREAK!

Somewhere, somehow, amidst his decadent cavorting with 72 virgins, Osama bin Laden must be smiling. Smiling like a man who's finally seeing his master plan come to fruition.
In the wake of the horrific mass killing at the Pulse gay nightclub in Orlando, FL, where 50 people died in the the deadliest shooting in United States history, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has been spewing newly amped up nativist racist rhetoric against refugees, immigrants and Muslims in particular.
Trump early Monday disingenuously attempted to conflate the attack by 29-year-old American Omar Mateen with what he called the threat from Syrian refugees entering the country, going so far as to lie in his claim than Mateen was "born in Afghan." Hours later in a speech in Cleveland, Trump offered an even more outrageously offensive line of attack:
"The bottom line is that the only reason the killer was in America in the first place was because we allowed his family to come here."
Mateen's parents are immigrants from Afghanistan. Mateen was born in New York.
Trump also reiterated his plan to temporarily ban Muslim immigration, specifically from countries where he believes the threat of terrorism was greatest.
"We cannot continue to allow thousands upon thousands of people to pour into our country, many of whom have the same thought process as this savage killer," Trump said, promising to only lift the ban "when we as a nation are in a position to properly and perfectly screen these people coming into our country."
He continued, "Many of the principles of Radical Islam are incompatible with Western values and institutions... Radical Islam is anti-woman, anti-gay and anti-American" (many, by the way, would argue this could also be said about Trump himself).
When bin Laden masterminded the horrific September 11 attacks which killed 3000 people on U.S. soil, he of course sought to kill Americans and cause catastrophic destruction in the process. But there was a more likely goal: to forever change America. To turn American against American. American against immigrant. American against Muslim. bin Laden's aim was to prove to the Muslim world that America was in fact as ugly, ignorant, racist and anti-Islam as he preached to his jihadis. Give America time, he believed, and everything it stands for, everything it believes in, its core tenets, its morality, its free press and even its precious rule of law, will be turned on its big fat arrogant head by scapegoating, hatred and violence. The bullies and fascists will take over, and democracy as we know it would be corrupted forever.
And now, fifteen years later, comes Donald Trump, the rabble-rousing, wall-building anti-Muslim isolationist gift-wrapped in a bloated orange box. The birthday present bin Laden always wished for but never lived to receive. Trump is the perfect vessel to realize bin Laden's ultimate dream of destroying America. He's everything the brutal monster hoped for and wished upon "The Great Satan." If Trump were to become president, America loses, but more tragically, bin Laden finally wins as he always...

Trump simply cannot help himself. Like a child. Or an addict. Unfortunately for him, he is incredibly thin-skinned. He is super-sensitive. He cannot hear even the slightest challenge or criticism without coming out swinging like a ranting, raving, unhinged, emotional lunatic, which sends him careening off message. And that's when anything and everything can and will come out of his mouth. No matter how irrational, incoherent or offensive. No matter how un-presidential.
Safe to say, last week was not a particularly good one for Trump. He faced a mountain of criticism over his controversial racist comments about Judge Gonzalo Curiel, who's presiding over the Trump University civil fraud case. The case itself also took the news spotlight, with Trump accused of essentially robbing seniors and low-income folks out of their savings. Trump also imploded at a press conference he held to address accusations that he reneged on a promise to raise $6-million for veterans causes. And there was that brilliant Hillary speech, which was so unsparing and scathing that it left Trump a terrified sweaty mess the rest of the week.
The media may have also reached a tipping point with Trump. At his press conference he unleashed a tirade of insults, referring to journalists as "dishonest" and "disgusting" while calling one ABC News reporter "sleazy." At almost every Trump rally he also relishes calling them "scum" and "slime." It would seem that the media's love affair with the bloviating, sexist, racist billionaire may finally be over, in which case he will face a tsunami of scrutiny the likes of which will result in even greater Hillary-landslide-causing temper tantrums.
To be sure, what we witnessed last week was that there's clearly just one adult in the room. Which is why Hillary should stay on point, discussing substantive policy issues while defining Trump as "dangerous" and "incoherent," drawing a stark contrast between them. She should demonstrate experience, leadership and presidential temperament, just as she did in San Diego. And she can bet that Trump will continue to do and say outrageously offensive things, and will pout, whine and stomp his feet like a spoiled, petulant 6-year-old every time he's "insulted," treated "unfairly" or not properly "praised." Hillary should simply let him...

The conventional wisdom is that there's a huge difference between angry white male Republican primary voters and the general electorate. Given that roughly 16% of Americans voted in the Republican primaries, and that Trump garnered about 45% of them, that would mean his "fans" comprise approximately 7% of the general electorate. Now while we've learned that with Trump there is no conventional wisdom, it's still hard to fathom how he can expand his base to achieve the 51% majority need to win in November, especially without women, Hispanics, independents, moderate Republicans and with a 60% unfavorable rating.
But what's really difficult to fathom is that America could be led by a fascist dictator like Trump. Someone who's blatantly and shamelessly attacked the likes of immigrants, minorities, women, the disabled, veterans, war heroes, world leaders and the Pope. An attention-starved thin-skinned narcissist who's run an insult-laden campaign built on bombast, bullying and false bravado. A mean-spirited, nasty, divisive, polarizing loose-cannon with an utter disdain for America's free press, the bedrock of a democracy. A tone-deaf, self-serving, entitled megalomaniac and pathological liar who's promised to shut the Department of Education, the Environmental Protection Agency and the IRS; withdraw from NATO; expand nukes globally; defund Planned Parenthood; punish women for getting abortions; deport 11-million immigrants; and register and ban Muslims. In short, someone who is fundamentally unqualified to be president.
Trump is so dangerous and self-destructive that he'd turn America into a domestic and international joke, similar to Italy under controversial power-hungry billionaire Silvio Berlusconi's indictment-ending reign of greed, corruption and sleaze. Under "President Trump," America would degenerate to its ugliest, darkest days. He would single-handedly destroy its reputation and the 240-year-old principles on which it stands.
And that is precisely why Donald Trump cannot, will not, be elected president. Because I believe my fellow Americans are inherently good, decent, moral and patriotic people. Unlike the small minority of Republican primary voters, I refuse to accept that they will vote for a self-aggrandizing empty-suited reality-tv buffoon like Trump, who in just 12 months of campaigning has tarnished the office of the presidency like no one since Richard Nixon, the disgraced Republican whose career-ending unethical, amoral and criminal behavior paled in comparison to Trump's sexist, racist, xenophobic offenses.
Yes, I believe America is better than Trump. That the general electorate will ultimately demand more than an angry, vulgar, crass, impulsive, intolerant, intellectually-bankrupt peddler of negativity and doom as leader of the free world and commander-in-chief of the greatest military on the planet. That's my new prediction. God help us if I'm...

Dear Trump Supporters:
We all know how "angry" you are, and that it's been that anger that Donald Trump has tapped into and exploited in order to win the Republican presidential nomination. But it's about time you turn all that anger towards the man who's been pulling the wool over your eyes ever since he entered the race. He's lied to you, he's used you, and now he's turning his back on you to get what he wants, which is all that Trump ever cares about: himself.
Let's start with campaign financing. You love Trump because he's "self-funded" and is therefore not beholden to lobbyists, special interests, big donors and corporations. It's been the hallmark of his campaign. And while he's spent about $40-million of his own money to win the nomination, fighting a general election war against Hillary Clinton will require upwards of $500-million. Trump himself believes he may need as much as $1.5 billion. Which is why he's recently sought the GOP's help with traditional fundraising. So much for self-funding. A huge broken promise.
How about his flip-flop on raising taxes on the rich? As the NY Times reported this week, Trump essentially now says 'Just kidding!' Taxes for the rich will actually go down under his plan. So much for taxing the rich. Another broken promise.
How about his flip-flop on raising the minimum wage? He went from "no" to "l'm looking at it and I haven't decided in terms of numbers. But I think that people have to get more." So much for not raising the minimum wage. Another broken promise.
How about his flip-flop on the Muslim ban? Trump originally teased you with "a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on." But last week it was watered down to merely "a suggestion." So much for the ban. Another broken promise.
How about his flip-flop on releasing his tax returns before the election? That's because he doesn't want you to see how little taxes he pays, or that his effective tax rate is likely lower than yours! What if his charitable contributions show that he hasn't supported veterans like he says he has, or that he's donated to pro-choice and gun control organizations or to leading Democratic politicians? Would you think that's "none of your business," as Trump claimed last week? What if the returns show that he's not as rich and successful as he's claimed? Or that he's in debt up to his eyeballs. So much for seeing the tax returns. Another broken promise.
How about his opinion that transgender people should be able to use whichever bathroom they prefer? Hmmm...how's that one sitting with you social conservatives!?
And how about the way Trump has manipulated you into thinking he'll clamp down hard on trade deals and keep jobs in America, yet when it comes to his own pocketbook, he's shipped jobs overseas, and away from you, by having his suits and other apparel merchandise made by cheap labor in China, Mexico and elsewhere. So much for keeping jobs in America. Another broken promise.
Make no mistake: Donald Trump is a lying, flip-flopping, closet liberal and likely financial fraud who's used you to get the nomination and duped you into thinking he's someone that he's not. He's just another double-talking politician who promises one thing and does another. Who actually pretends to be someone else, as we learned last week in the fake publicist "John Miller" scandal, to promote his self-interests. Think about all that as you contemplate what to do on November 4th. Maybe that should get you...

왜 파산한 도널드냐고?...

Donald Trump loves nicknames. Over the year-long course of his bombastic campaigning he's come up with a bunch of 'em for various opponents: Lyin' Ted, Little Marco, Crooked Hillary, Low-energy Jeb and his latest, Goofy Elizabeth and Crazy Bernie. So it's time we slap a label on Trump himself: Broke Donald.
And why Broke Donald? Because his refusal to release his tax returns raises major suspicion that he's either insolvent and/or involved in business transactions or investments that portray him in a negative light. Is there another explanation for why he refuses to hand them over until at least after the election, if at all? He claims he "can't" release them because he's in the middle of an audit. But as I wrote back in March, even the IRS states that the decision to release his tax returns is Trump's and only Trump's.
Every presidential nominee for the past forty years has released tax returns before the election. So Trump's refusal raises the billion-dollar question, what's he hiding? Is he broke? Will the returns show low income? Low tax rate? Massive debt? Business losses? Do the returns show an embarrassingly low amount of charitable contributions? And to whom he's contributed to, or not? For example, has he not supported veterans as he's claimed? Do the returns show questionable deductions and/or offshore investments and shelters? Something even worse? As the GOP's 2012 nominee Mitt Romney suggested Tuesday, is there a "bombshell" in there?
Contrary to Trump's claim that "tax returns show very, very little," these official documents actually show quite a lot, and provide an official window into an individual's true financial standing. So maybe Trump's insistence that they remain private is because they're the house of cards that could bring down the house of Trump.
And there's the problem. For an individual who's anchored his entire narrative to his "huge" wealth, perhaps those tax returns would be a devastating blow to the Trump mystique and brand. Imagine what life would be like for Trump if it appeared that he wasn't worth the $10-billion he's claimed? If he couldn't brag about his success and those billions. Shielding his tax returns from the public certainly allows him to continue his relentless trumped-up self-aggrandizing.
Let's be clear: it's not been the American people who've entered Trump's personal wealth into the campaign as the candidate's primary political asset. It's been Trump himself who's consistently claimed for a year now that his personal fortune and business success are his core presidential calling cards. Which is why verifying those claims should be an essential part of the vetting process.
Hillary Clinton should embrace "Broke Donald" and run with it. She should define the presumptive Republican nominee as a financial fraud. She should attack him where it'd hurt the most. The one button that when pushed would rattle Trump like no other. His wealth is how he defines himself. Attack the money and you attack the man. And it's what she should do non-stop until November. It'd keep her on offense and him on defense.
Imagine the following ad: "Broke Donald. Refuses to release his tax returns. What's he hiding? Is his "huge" wealth just a myth? Is Donald Trump a financial fraud? I'm Hillary Clinton...and I approved this ad..."...

Seems like hardly a nanosecond ago Donald Trump, the Republican front runner, sounded like an ignorant, intolerant, sexist, racist buffoon. And since his big win in the New York primary last week, he's put much of the nastiness on hold and, according to the mainstream media, is sounding more "presidential." Talk about setting the bar low.
Welcome to Trump's new reality show: The Pivot. In a flash, he's all but replaced his controversial campaign manager Corey Lewandowski with Paul Manafort, the embodiment of the very political establishment which Trump excoriates, a theme on which he's built his entire campaign; a campaign fueled by the candidate's Morton Downey-esque blistering persona and incendiary rhetoric.
But now Trump appears to be on a calculated mission to make nice with the GOP, RNC chairman Reince Priebus, and moderate voters in an attempt to win enough delegates (preferably the 1237 minimum) to win the nomination and avoid an all-out war at the party's convention this Summer in Cleveland.
Manafort, who cut his teeth delegate-hunting in 1976 for President Gerald Ford, dropped a bomb last Thursday while addressing about 100 RNC members in a closed-door meeting in Hollywood, FL. He 'assured' the group that Trump's campaign thus far has been an act. That he's been playing a "part."
"He gets it," Manafort told RNC members. "The part that he's been playing is now evolving into the part that you've been expecting. The negatives will come down, the image is going to change, but 'Crooked Hillary' is still going to be 'Crooked Hillary.'"
The Pivot even had Trump criticizing North Carolina's recent "bathroom bill." When asked whether well known transgender reality star Caitlyn Jenner would be free to use any bathroom she wanted in Trump Tower, he said, "That is correct."
The big question raised by The Pivot is, what happens when a candidate like Trump, whose 'authenticity' and anti-establishment bona fides have been the primary source of his appeal, suddenly appears inauthentic and very establishment? And how will his legion of angry blue-collar white dudes feel about their hero's new open bathroom policy?
Trump's rabidly loyal fans will surely be put to the test now. Will these same folks, who've unequivocally excused and defended his inflammatory rhetoric over the past year, accept an abrupt shift to the center by "Lyin' Donald?" Have his comments about North Carolina and Caitlyn Jenner stunned them into re-thinking the 'truer' conservative Ted Cruz? Does Trump now appear like the closet Democrat many have suspected him to be all along?
Stay tuned to The Pivot. The next episodes promise to be quite...

"The system, folks, is rigged! It's a rigged, disgusting, dirty system."
Welcome to the newest Donald Trump campaign strategy, or perhaps the launch of his exit strategy. Still hot under the collar from getting his unprepared, unorganized butt kicked last Saturday by Ted Cruz, who snagged all 34 Colorado delegates in that state's GOP convention, Trump is starting to sound like a man who's finally found the right excuse to get the hell out of politics, a "dirty" business he got into only to feed his rapacious id and have some fun for a few months.
But little did Trump know that he'd become the clear front runner by awakening the "silent majority," those mad-as-hell-and-I'm-not-gonna-take-it-anymore blue-collar white dudes who misguidedly think the best candidate to fix the broken, inequitable system they feel screwed them all these years is the Ivory Tower billionaire who's exploited that very same system to become rich and powerful beyond their wildest dreams.... all the while bankrupting businesses, hiring undocumented workers and refusing to support a $15/hour minimum wage increase.
"The economy is rigged, the banking system is rigged, there's a lot of things that are rigged in this world of ours," a shrill Trump ranted at his Albany, NY rally this week. "Rules are no good when you don't get Democracy. The rules are no good when they don't count your vote....when you have to play dirty tricks to pick up delegates!"
Trump's latest salvo puts the blame of his Colorado loss not on his ineptitude and ground-game deficiency, but squarely on an allegedly corrupt process that disenfranchised voters and stole his delegates. A process, mind you, that Cruz seemed to understand and capitalize on quite well.
Which fits nicely into a future narrative of, "I could be president, I would've been president, but the corrupt Republican establishment's backroom brokers changed the rules so I couldn't win. I'm outta here!"
This would be followed by lawsuits against the GOP, individual states and the U.S. government. And as a final kick in RNC Chairman Reince Priebus's balls, Trump would announce a last-minute independent candidacy, all but assuring a Hillary Clinton landslide in November. A scenario which, by the way, fits my narrative of a secret conspiracy by Trump to help Madam Secretary get elected.
It should be noted, however, that even Trump doesn't believe his own "rigged system" conspiracy. "I'm not complaining about the states I won...those are ok!," Trump smugly boasted. That's been Trump's mantra from day-one: 'When I win, it's great. When I lose, it's everyone else's...

It was 1967. The Summer of Love. A defining moment in America's social history which symbolized the hippie counterculture movement. Over 100,000 young people descended upon San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury district amid free love, awesome music and lots of hallucinogenic drugs. Just two years...

In the 1970's, Travis Bickle, the fictional character in director Martin Scorsese's "Taxi Driver," attempted to assassinate a politician in a psychotic, delusional haze motivated by political disenchantment and racism.
Also in the 70's, New York City serial killer David Berkowitz, the infamous Son of Sam, claimed that a demon in the form of his neighbor's dog ordered him to kill innocent people.
Given the current, unprecedentedly volatile political landscape, it would be incredibly naive and irresponsible to believe that there's not one psycho out there right now who, in similar fashion to Manson, Bickle and Berkowitz, believes Donald Trump is speaking directly to him. That Trump's mantra to "make America great again," coupled with his incendiary, race-baiting rhetoric, is a direct call to take up arms, fight Trump's war, and be a 'hero.' Just one. That's all it will take to cause a horrific, bloody tragedy.
To be sure, there's a palpable level of toxicity and hatred that permeates Trump's events. And it's the direct result of the candidate himself. Of one protester in Las Vegas, he boasted that "I'd like to punch him right in the face." Of other protesters in Iowa, he urged the crowd to "Knock the crap out of them." He's also defended some of his "fans" for punching and kicking a #BlackLivesMatter protester saying, "Maybe he should have been roughed up."
As CNN's Michael Smerconish said Saturday, "Donald Trump has shouted 'fire' in a political theater."
At Trump's North Carolina rally last week one angry old white dude sucker-punched a black protester in the face as he was being removed by security. Afterwards, he chillingly threatened that"Next time we see him, we might have to kill him." Can someone, anyone, tell me how this sort of hate-speak is making America great?
There was more violence Friday at a Trump rally in St. Louis, and later that night his massive rally in Chicago was cancelled after violence erupted in the arena.
And over the weekend a protester charged the stage at Trump's rally in Ohio and was taken down by Secret Service before he reached Trump, who looked terrified as three agents bear-hugged him to prevent an attack.
So what happens next? Will Trump himself become more of a target? Will he ultimately get the message that he's the one inciting the violence and start to bring down the temperature in the room? Or will he continue to ratchet up the toxic rhetoric until it leads to an awful tragedy? Unfortunately, it appears Trump, in some very twisted way, is getting off on it all.
"Honestly can I be honest with you?" he said after the cancelled Chicago rally. "It adds to the flavor, it really does, makes it more exciting."
I bet it won't be so "exciting" if and when someone gets...

Faith Durand Jun 10, 2013 Discussion England Grocery Shopping Home Share Pin Email Share Pin Email (Image credit: Apartment Therapy ) When traveling to another country for the first time, one of the first things I like to do is pop into a grocery store. Grocery stores are often the only places open in the wee hours of the morning after stepping off a transcontinental flight, and they offer an immediate peek into the real flavor of life. When I was in London a few weeks ago I found the supermarkets impressively glossy and dizzyingly well-stocked.

UK: Soft drinks sector holding off recession - BSDA president
By just-drinks.com editorial team | 9 June 2009
The UK soft drinks industry has proved itself more resilient to recession than other beverage sectors in 2009, according to Paul Moody, president of the British Soft Drinks Association.
Speaking at the annual BSDA lunch in London today (9 June), Moody said: "The soft drinks industry is in a strong position.
"We are performing better than most other beverage sectors," he added.
Moody, who is also CEO of Britvic, the UK's leading soft drinks group, said that soft drinks have benefited from their image as a product for "everyday enjoyment".
Industry delegates at the lunch said that they are now hoping for good summer to boost sales, despite rising unemployment and ongoing economic recession in the UK.
Moody's comments came in the same week that AG Barr, maker of Irn-Bru and the country's second largest soft drinks firm, reported that like-for-like sales were up by 8% in the the first four months of its fiscal year, to the end of May.
Britvic, which owns the licence to PepsiCo drinks in the UK and Ireland, as well as the Robinsons squash brand, said last month that net sales for the 28 weeks to 13 April rose by around 6% to reach GBP483.2m (US$756.6m).

RATINGS: 193 WEIGHTED AVG: 3.77/5 SEASONAL: Series EST. CALORIES: 345 ABV: 11.5%
The beer is an 11.5% Imperial Brown Ale which we have aged in amazing Spanish sweet red barrels from Malaga. Stewart Bowman, our Head Brewer, devised an Imperial Brown Ale designed to perfectly complement the wine flavours and extract maximum depth and character from the giant barrels. We also felt the Imperial Brown Ale was ideally suited to be barrel aged and as well as the infusion of the Malaga wine character will also benefit added complexity and maturity from the time in oak.

There are 1002 items in this category
Year: 1927
Condition: AU-58
Description: A much tougher P Mint date in better grades. This is a nice "Slider"), showing a few light marks as Peace Dollars usually do, but virtually no wear and almost full luster. The kind of coin commonly dipped out and sold as "Select BU" for twice the money. This would certainly fit nicely into a high grade AU or even average Unc set of this series.
Price: $63.00
Item Id #005007 See Details...
Year: 1917D
Condition: Choice AU-55+
Description: Original and well struck from a fresh die pair, definitely NOT common for this date. Just a bit of wear on Lincoln's cheekbone & jaw. The luster is a bit muted by the chocolate brown color, so I calling this a 55 rather than 58.
Price: $63.00
Item Id #004527 See Details...
Year: 1926S
Condition: VF-25 to 30
Description: A sharp VF+ example of this Semi-Key Date, ridiculously undervalued at current levels. This coin is not perfect as it shows evidence of an very old, light cleaning (as 95% of circulated specimens do), and a light mark on the Reverse. Some remaining signs of luster and without the cleaning might have a shot at certify EF.
Price: $63.00
Item Id #005059 See Details...
Year: 1880S
Condition: PCGS MS-63
Description: Nice Choice BU example of this common S Mint date. Very clean for the assigned grade - the Reverse is nearly completely mark free to the eye. All white except just a trace of toning along the Reverse rim area. Undoubtedly an original BU roll coin. Images upon request.
Price: $63.00
Item Id #003285 See Details...
Year: 1885
Condition: EF-40+
Description: A solid EF coin with nice Brown surfaces. There are some small traces of original Red remaining, but not nice enough to make AU.
Price: $60.00
Item Id #002897 See Details...
Year: 1917D
Condition: Fine-15
Description: Much of the coinage produced during the period of the First World War was uneven in quality at best. The 1917 to 1919 Buffalo Nickels were no exception. This is a solid Fine+, but like many from the Denver Mint this year, the date logotype is not bold. Otherwise a problem free example with 3/4 of a horn.
Price: $60.00
Item Id #003812 See Details...
Year: 1917D
Condition: Fine-15
Description: Much of the coinage produced during the period of the First World War was uneven in quality at best. The 1917 to 1919 Buffalo Nickels were no exception. This is a solid Fine+, similar to that coin offered as #3812, but with a bolder date. Conversely, it shows some of the toning streaks common to original, uncleaned examples due to minor problems with alloy mix. Problem free, with 3/4 of a horn, or just about.
Price: $60.00
Item Id #003813 See Details...
Year: 1951
Condition: Gem Proof
Description: Typical of the 1950-51 Proof Sets, this has a more "chrome" or satiny looking finish, rather than the traditional mirrored finish. This was due to the Mint forced having to relearn how to strike Proofs. Some splashes of light toning from long storage in a Capital-style holder. These are hard to see and mentioned simply to be accurate. As this sort of thing is not for everyone, please review my images with care (the toning could be removed through conservation). Out of a full 1951 Proof Set I recently broke up, from a small group of sets that were together since the 1970's.
Price: $59.00
Item Id #004632 See Details...
Year: 1941S
Condition: Choice Uncirculated
Description: A true Uncirculated example, very typical of coins that come out of old time sets originally housed in Whitman or similar folders. No wear from circulation, this shows some wispy hairlines from light handling or contact with paper in the folder. The Reverse shows no hairlines, just a touch or original toning. To the naked eye, this looks "Gem BU", and should fit nicely into a raw BU Quarter set.
Price: $59.00
Item Id #004658 See Details...
Year: 1870
Condition: Good-4
Description: The 1870 is a tougher date in the series, as are all of the 1869 to 1872 dates, even in Good.
Price: $59.00
Item Id #004174 See Details...
Year: 1910
Condition: MS-64+ BN
Description: An original Choice Uncirculated example, with nicely mellowed color - a "Brown" coin, but with much Red remaining as highlights, especially on the Obverse.
Price: $59.00
Item Id #004199 See Details...
Year: 1925D
Condition: VF-20+
Description: A nice solid VF+ example of this better date. Typical slightly mismatched strike, with a stronger Reverse than Obverse. This dissimilarity is common during the 1920's at the two Branch Mints, as they switched dies in and out of service individually, rather than as a pair. Original and problem free.
Price: $59.00
Item Id #004983 See Details...
Year: 1894
Condition: EF-45
Description: A touch sharper than the coin listed as #4491. Close to AU and might certify as such on a good day.
Price: $59.00
Item Id #004995 See Details...
Year: 1951
Condition: Gem Proof (65+)
Description: A nice original Proof coin with clean surfaces, showing some light Cameo effect which is noticeable due to a hint of bluish toning. Please Note: the "fingerprint" that shows in the Reverse image is on the outside of the plastic, not on the coin.
Price: $59.00
Item Id #003717 See Details...
Year: 1924
Condition: Choice Uncirculated
Description: A coin with very clean fields, at first glance this looks like an obvious Gem. A few light hairlines on Liberty's cheek from an old album slide (enlarged image shown), and a small reed mark or two keep this out of that category, but still a solid Choice BU coin. Typical 1924 strike on the Obverse, showing some die wear and granularity, however the Reverse is very sharp for this date.
Price: $59.00
Item Id #005006 See Details...
Year: 1843
Condition: Good-4+
Description: A problem free Good with a complete though not super strong rim, typical of the early Seated Halves in this grade. While only the basic collectible grade, problem free early Halves are no where near as common as the price makes them appear.
Price: $59.00
Item Id #003736 See Details...
Year: 1915
Condition: AU-50
Description: A very tough grade for this early Philly Mint date. Well struck for the date, this still shows the rugosity in the fields characteristic of Brenner's original design (the slightly pebbled or textured look). Struck on a planchet showing the "woodgrain" color of many early Lincolns, this was also stored in such a way that the surfaces dried out a bit so I applied some Coin Care to help them out. As such, the "shine" you are seeing in not luster but the applied Care; the coin does show some small amount of original luster here and there as well. The Coin care will NOT hurt the coin and can easily be removed with a coin-safe solvent should the new owner choose. Perhaps not a "perfect" Choice AU, but then it would cost significantly more; most price "guides" are ridiculously too low on values for this coin.
Price: $59.00
Item Id #005018 See Details...
Year: 1859O
Condition: Good/VG
Description: A nice original average circulated example of this popular Type coin date. Full bold rims, some definition in Liberty's features and about half of the feathers in the Eagle's wings. Problem free.
Price: $59.00
Item Id #003739 See Details...
Year: 1925S
Condition: AU-55
Description: A bit sharper Obverse than coin #4083, but less so on the Reverse - typical mis-matched 1925-S die pair. Otherwise original and very nice, and would almost certainly also certify as a 58.
Price: $59.00
Item Id #004531 See Details...
Year: 1901
Condition: Choice Fine/Very Fine
Description: Exceedingly close to Very Fine, this lacks just a bit of detail as it was struck from the Type Two Obverse master hub (or Type Three depending upon how you see it) introduced in 1900. Coins struck from this hub have weaker detail, especially in Liberty's head from the laurel wreath leaves down to her eye/nose. While in my opinion just short of what I like to see in a full VF, this still might certify as such. Otherwise, a solid example. This date is priced ludicrously, with a Good being worth 75% of the value of a Fine; I can assure you that the Good versus Fine population for this date does not run 3 to 1, but more like 300 to 1 or fewer. So either the Goods (and VG's) are overpriced, or Fine & VF are underpriced - I think the latter.
Price: $59.00
Item Id #004532 See Details...
Year: 1889
Condition: VF-30
Description: A nice VF to EF, certainly a Commercial EF. It still shows some luster around the rims and strong hair detail. A few light marks from circulation are not too distracting, and seem appropriate to the level of circulation.
Price: $58.00
Item Id #004355 See Details...
Year: 1886
Condition: VF-20
Description: A nice mid-grade circulated example of this better date. Likely to certify as a VF-30, given the current commercial standard, but I will simply call it VF.
Price: $58.00
Item Id #004942 See Details...
Year: 1909VDB
Condition: Ch/Gem BU
Description: This is an original Choice Uncirculated coin, out of a stash of rolls of this date put away by my now retired business partner, many years ago - I am offering a number of similar coins that also came from this same source. Most of the coins in these rolls showed at least some toning, this coin just enough to not make a full Red. It shows mellow traces of reddish-yellow over the original "straw gold" color. There is also some light "flecks" indicating finger contact at some point - remember, no 2x2's, Airtites or coin tubes back then - coins were handled by hand when rolled from original Mint bags, or when a merchant went to the bank to get some coin. Still, a bright obvious BU coin.
Price: $57.00
Item Id #004239 See Details...
Year: 1873
Condition: Good/Very Good
Description: A classic Type Coin, which seems a bit scarcer than the 1853-55 With Arrows type, probably as the novelty was not as considerable the second time around, so the public saved fewer. Certainly, this date seems tougher in better circulated grades. Most examples I see, similar this one, were put aside during the "Barber" years when all Seated Halves were potential hoard coins as they were "old" and obsolete. The example offered here is a decent, average circulated coin of this date.
Price: $57.00
Item Id #002752 See Details...
Year: 1913D
Condition: AU-55 to 58
Description: A very original coin showing just a bit of wear on the highest points of the Bison. A more typical strike for the date than coin #4322, nothing horrible, just not as sharp.
Price: $57.00
Item Id #004323 See Details...

Will You Die Before Your TV?
Panasonic says it takes 42 years for its 1080p VIERA plasmas to reach half its original brightness.
Will you die before your TV?
That's a pretty morbid question, we know. But it's one Panasonic is starting to toss around.
Panasonic just sent out a press release saying their plasma TVs might "outlast" their owners.
Really? People stress out enough already hoping their children will "outlast" them. But now we have this to worry about.
Panasonic says its 1080p VIERA Plasma HDTVs last 100,000 hours before reaching half the original brightness. Based upon the average daily viewing time of six and a half hours in the U.S., it will take 42 years for a Panasonic 1080p VIERA Plasma to reach half its orignial brightness or be on the way out, as Panasonic puts it.
I guess they could be right. Someone that does watch six and a half hours of TV per day certainly might not live long after 42. That's a heavy daily dose of TV.
The company also says its line of 720p VIERA plasmas will reach half the brightness after 60,000 hours or 25 years.
What are the chances the 720p models will outlive their owners?
Actually, I don't want to know. I'm 23 years old and apparently my life is half over.

I bought a large quantity of t-shirts from Toms Cabin for an event promotion I was running and the quality of the garments coupled to the speed of the delivery has to be commended. I'd priced up similar items at rival websites online but decided to 'bite the bullet' and shop at Toms - I'm glad I did! In my humble opinion (for what it's worth) I would imagine it's hard to beat the value for money and the quality of the goods from this online store. Suffice to say, I'd recommend Toms… Read Full Review

Travel Troubles
Rio de Janeiro has in recent years evicted drug dealers from hillside slums, carved fast-moving bus lanes into sclerotic streets, and cracked down on unauthorised food vendors along the city's 93 km of beaches.
Now, as they gear up for the 2013 Carnival, officials are taking aim at another old Rio scourge: public urinating.
Urine flows as freely during Rio's famous annual festivities as beer and the cane liquor known as cachaça.
For as long as locals remember, the sight of people relieving themselves - and the stench of their steamy puddles - has been as much a part of Carnival as half-naked women, samba schools, drag queens, body paint, and drunk and sun-burned foreigners.
But Rio, Brazil's second-largest city and its most popular tourist destination, now wants to stop the peeing.
To sanitise some of the revelry, officially starting on Friday, city hall has deployed thousands of agents to spot and detain offenders. It's a dry run, if you will, before Rio hosts World Cup soccer matches next year and the 2016 Olympics - events that are also expected to inspire celebration.
"It's the biggest complaint we get," says Alex Costa, Rio's secretary for public order, echoing angry residents whose doors, curbs and car tires get anointed by bursting bladders.
In recent weeks, the city has touted the number of "mijões," or "pee-ers," that agents have detained during pre-Carnival rehearsals and block parties: 321 since Jan. 20, including 16 women and three foreigners. Particularly lewd offenders are fined, but most detainees merely get shuttled to police stations where they miss the rest of the party.
"We just want to educate," Costa says, "give people pause."
Carnival Rebounds
The pee patrol is part of an overall effort to impose more order as Carnival's popularity soars.
Like Mardi Gras and other similar celebrations, Rio's Carnival stems from the tradition by some Catholics to get sins out of their system before the austere season of Lent.
Not too long ago, a volatile economy and rampant crime relegated most of the celebration to a sterile, concrete promenade where professional parade organisers compete in a televised spectacle. It's a far cry from grass-roots revelry.
As Brazil's economy rebounded in recent years, city officials cleaned up Rio's marquee neighbourhoods. Block parties and amateur street parades blossomed; adding to events expected this year to generate $US665 million for the local economy.
In the past four years, the size of marches by neighbourhoods groups, trade organisation, and other cliques has doubled, attracting a projected 6 million people this Carnival. Nearly 500 "blocos," as the bibulous bunches are known, are scheduled to march by Carnival's end next Wednesday.
To cope, the city has deployed 18,000 portable toilets around town. Along with thousands of police already on patrol, 7700 municipal agents, more than twice as many as last year, control everything from unlicensed street vendors to illegal parking.
They're also pursuing pee-ers.
'Disgusting pigs'
Last Sunday, 25 of the agents worked Suvaco de Cristo, or Christ's Armpit, a popular "bloco" that parties beneath the right arm of Rio's iconic Christ the Redeemer statue.
In plain clothes so as not to draw suspicion, the agents stood out anyway among 25,000 partiers donning everything from lingerie and Angry Birds masks to grass skirts and devil suits.
The agents milled about side streets and a nearby canal, where their targets might drop trousers. They looked behind trees and between cars, where female offenders often squat.
At first, the pickings were slim. "They haven't drunk enough yet," said Marcelo Maywald, who leads the patrols.
But soon enough, two men in miniskirts, blonde wigs, and sailor caps stumbled toward the wall of a hippodrome. Four agents surrounded the men just as they started to urinate.
Though perturbed, the "mijões" finished the task at hand. When they turned, the agents accosted them. "Come with us," one agent said. "You know you shouldn't do that."
Nearby, Mr Maywald nabbed a shirtless man in a straw hat.
The agents walked the three offenders to a curb while they radioed for a nearby van. "Don't worry," Mr Maywald stressed, "this isn't about punishment. We just want to build some awareness."
The agents, in fact, aren't armed; they don't even carry handcuffs. Sensing as much, the man in the straw hat ran off.
"He's quicker than us," one of the wigged men said, "or maybe he's just more sober."
Mr Maywald wasn't amused. "That was one of mine," he griped.
He and two agents then hopped into a pickup truck and sped to pass the procession. The "bloco" crept behind a sound truck past the colonnade of palm trees lining Rio's botanical garden.
In a square, the revellers rallied like runners at the end of drunken marathon. Catching "mijões" was like shooting fish in a barrel.
One woman clapped as the agents caught them. "You are disgusting!" she yelled at the offenders. "You are pigs!"
Meanwhile, Felipe Rodrigues, a 21-year-old soldier in plaid shorts, unzipped by the side of a bush. Mr Maywald snuck to the other side and pretended to field a phone call. When Mr Rodrigues was done, Mr Maywald walked over and collared him.
Five minutes later, Mr Rodrigues sat in an open van while two friends taunted him. "Can you give us a ride?" they asked.
Mr Rodrigues, still buzzed from his morning beer, shrugged. "Of course, I was in the wrong," he said, "but I really had to go."
