Excel does that and OpenOffice doesn't. For me that makes Excel superior. For word processing I find each application equally annoying.
Unless I've missed something there's a very big flaw in this idea and it seems that it comes from not thinking outside of the contractor box. For the purposes of planning and workforce management there are advantages to knowing how much leave your staff will be taking in a given year and the ability to dictate at least to some extent when they can take it.
Imagine you run a call centre and you can in theory at least forecast the number of calls you expect to take and by some mathematical jiggery pokery determine the number of bums on seats you need to answer an arbitrary percentage of those calls. If you know the figures you know how many staff you need to employ and if you know how much leave they're entitled to you can work that into your equations.
Since you're paying for the leave you can set limits on the number of people that take leave at any one time so that you can still meet your target for the percentage of calls you want to answer by ensuring that you will always have enough people to take those calls.
In Worstall's-World everyone's a self-employed contractor and so can chose when they want to work as long as they accept that they're not going to get paid for it. When the school summer holidays arrive as they do every year your contact centre is going to be empty because 90% of the women that work there (which is usually well over 50% of the workforce) take the six weeks off to look after their children or their grandchildren. For the parents especially, not being paid isn't a massive problem because the cost of childcare is on a par with what they earn every day. Most people will decide that the small effective decrease in available income is worth taking given that you get six weeks off work. Work seven hours a day for an extra £20 a day, £8+ of which is spent on travel or parking or whatever or have those seven hours plus travel time to yourself? For most people in a household with another income it's an easy enough choice to make.
So if we want to run our contact centre efficiently we're going to have stipulate the days we want our contractors to work when we agree the contracts and given that we'll be using the same criteria for deciding that we'd be using if we were allowing paid annual leave, the employee is in pretty much the same situation as they were before but they now have to set aside the money they need to take holiday out of their normal income. That's easier said than done when you're on a contact centre wage. Not a problem when you earn two or three times as much as a contact centre worker but not easy when that extra 10% you'll be getting paid isn't that much. Add to that, that the contractor will have plan their leave in advance when the contracts are agreed and the so called freedom of the contractor is gone. The employee loses flexibility and so does the employer; if the forecasts were wrong and it's actually quieter you can relax the leave limits and people will take the leave reducing the chance you'll be paying them for being at home when you needed them at work.
The other option is that contractors come to work when they feel like it which is no good for a business that needs to plan its staffing levels. If as a business you pay people for leave then you're generally buying yourself some workforce stability; most people take some leave before they've accrued it and so if they leave employment they have to pay it back. If Joe Bloggs owes two weeks' leave then Joe Bloggs is less likely to leave on a whim because Joe Bloggs will only get half a month of wages when he does.
If we also consider the school summer holidays again (and the easter holidays and all the others) then what about teachers? They don't have a choice about when they take their holiday so how does being a contractor benefit them in that respect?
Being a contractor is great if you get paid a contractor's wage but for the average person on an average wage it's not as great as a contractor thinks it is. For most people it would mean either less freedom and flexibility or intolerable uncertainty.
Maybe this would be a viable alternative to pig stomach:
Apparently it's ideal for making haggis.
Thank you for an interesting and informative article.
"For example, it can be used to identify a child who has threatened over social media to commit suicide."
I'd argue the information on their profile would be a better and quicker way to identify them.

I think we can consider a different planet to be analogous to a different partition (possibly on a different device).
An excerpt from:
For the Libyan raid, the United States was denied overflight rights by France, Spain and Italy as well as the use of European continental bases, forcing the Air Force portion of the operation to be flown around France, Spain and through the Straits of Gibraltar, adding 1,300 miles (2,100 km) each way and requiring multiple aerial refuelings. The French refusal alone added 2,800 km total, and was imposed despite the fact that France itself had been the target of terrorism directed by the Gaddafi government in Libya. French president Mitterrand refused its clearance because the United States refused to give to the French army all details about the operation and he did not want to authorize any foreign operation that couldn't be analysed by French authorities.
Some bombs landed off-target, striking diplomatic and civilian sites in Tripoli, while the French embassy was only narrowly missed.
Probably just an unfortunate coincidence.
But history is written by the winner.
I know the fairy dust effect.
A friend of mine would have computer problems that he'd ask me to fix (being a self-employed tradesman he knew the score so there'd always be a drink in it for me - I wouldn't always accept if as it's the thought that counts as much as anything).
I'd get there and get him to show me what he was doing and it would work. He'd always swear blind that he did the exact same thing before and it didn't work.
After a while, instead of me going to his we'd go over it on the phone and again it would work and he'd swear he'd done the same thing.
The last 'support call' I had from him was a text message to say he'd been having computer problems and was thinking of ringing me when it started working.
I think he was almost convinced I had magic powers by then.
I had an 800XL with the floppy disk drive that was so noisy I could never get away with playing any games when I was supposed to be in bed.
I also had one of the graphics tablets it had which made a great substitute paddle for playing breakout. I used to engage cheat mode on the higher levels by resting a book on the space bar (which was the pause button and would produce a jittery half-speed with the key-repeat).
Those were the days.
I notice MS BASIC was available in three different versions from the start.
I suppose they'd have done it with DOS if there'd been any functionality that could have been taken away without leaving it unusable.
Oracle do databases.
So do Google.
Oracle would like to use some of Google's technology or patents.
Oracle will shut up if Google lets them do x y and z.
That is all.
"There's no doubt that the current flight is a significant achievement for Qinetiq. However, as with Zephyr's previous unofficially record-breaking flight one can't help noticing that the firm has chosen to make the attempt in uniquely favourable circumstances.
If the sun-plane is generating a large surplus above what it needs to stay airborne, well and good: Qinetiq are offering no details at this point. If it isn't, though, its claim to be the first useful "eternal plane" will look rather unfounded. ®"
It's about claiming it to be the "first useful 'eternal plane'" when adding a couple of webcams and a radio might take its endurance down to 14 hours.
I got the impression the author understood science and engineering from the last paragraph. I also got the impression he understood PR talk.
IMHO of course.
How about thus - Google have to give access to some data to some US authorities.
The authorities are able to directly connect to whatever server provides this data using http. The authorities insist on using IE6. Google use IE6 to access the server as the web-application has been coded specifically for IE6 as that's what the authorities insisted on at the time.
You'd imagine that Google would be able write code that operates on more than one browser so the conclusion then is that Google are running software that they can't control / didn't write - presumably provided by the previously mentioned authorities.
So that's where they get all the shit to fill the 600 pages of search results that you don't need once you've tried the first five results.
Every country has a state run TV channel don't they?
So the people in those countries must pay for it. The difference is that here you can choose not to.
I think it's fair to say that the money that the BBC gets paid benefits the country more than the cost in straight taxes, even if you don't watch telly.
Well said that man. Well said.
"... A lot of the ID card stuff is actually tied up in treaty obligations for full biometric passports, and as it's not compulsory anyway, what are you winging at."
I have a biometric passport. I quite like it and I've used the biometric recognition to get out of Stanstead Airport. It was great. It's also my choice to have one.
More importantly, it's not simply a form of identity (although as one it's probably the best but as flawed as any other form of ID - see previous Reg articles).
The inside cover of my passport says this:
"Her Britannic Majesty's Secretary of State requests and requires in the name of Her Majesty all those whom it may concern to allow the bearer to pass freely without let or hindrance, and to afford the bearer such assistance and protection as may be necessary"
The ID function is secondary to the meaning of the passport - the ID part proves my entitlement to the passport which is there to allow me free passage through foreign states - the passport isn't there to prove my identity.
Having said that, I might start to carry it with me at all times. I'd like to see the look on a copper's face when I quote that at him or her if they try to stop me from taking photographs. Especially since they technically answer to HM and not HMG.
My passport is already sufficient ID if I need ID for anything. Being in my thirties I shouldn't be ID'd to get into a pub; so far I've not had to but I've seen people older than me ID'd on the way in.
That starts to sound compulsory to me. It's conditioning people to accept being ID'd as normal.
One of the greatest things about being British is that I don't have to prove me identity just because I'm on the street. I have nothing to hide and so there's no need to compel me to identify myself - I'm not a criminal and I'm not wanted so proving my identity to a copper serves no purpose.
That's the flaw in the 'nothing to hide' 'argument' - it shifts the presumption of innocence.
"If you don't want an ID card don't have one, but you won't be able to leave the UK."
I'll just use my passport thanks very much. See above for the difference.
"Most of the studies on how much it will cost have totally ignored that, I doubt ID cards themselves will actually cost that much when compared to the costs of the full biometric passport."
I refer you to the above point, viz. the function of a passport is not that of an ID Card.
"Oh, and for those of you who haven't already noticed, a lot of things already require you to use your passport as ID, in some places you need to show an NHS entitlement card to get treatment, and so on, so a citizenship card isn't really that big a deal."
Even if you don't have a passport you're still entitled to whatever services require confirmation of your identity.
A passport happens to be a convenient way of asserting identity. If it's not possible to prove your identity through means other than a passport then it's impossible to prove your identity to get a passport. Furthermore, I don't have an automatic right to a passport - the state can withdraw that right if it so chooses.
That doesn't entitle the state to withdraw my right to leave the country - I just no longer have the state's protection if I choose to do so.
One of Iraq's crimes against humanity was restricting people's right to leave Iraq. I might have a hard time leaving the country and a harder time when I arrive wherever I'm going, but if things have reached that stage then it's likely that I'd be claiming asylum anyway.
So, you see that a 'Citizenship Card' is a big deal. Other European countries are cited in the arguments for ID Cards in that 'they all have them'. They've also had dictators in the last 70 years and the ID Cards are simply a hangover from then.
Finally, the implication of a 'Citizenship Card' is that if you don't have one, then you're not a citizen. That's the creeping horror which those of us who understand what it is to be British fear.
You might get noticed holding a sheet of A4 in front of your face ...
I used it at Stanstead before Christmas. It's pretty cool actually. The paranoid conspiracy theorist in me wondered if they were grabbing a sneaky snapshot of my fingerprints at the same time though. If they were then they just know what my knuckles look like ...
If he went in through an open door then it's analogous to trespass.
If he was trespassing with intent to steal murder or rape then its burglary; otherwise it's a civil matter.
As for Asperger's being a defence - it's not a defence against the crime; it's a defence against extradition which would leave him with an unfair trial.
All trials must be fair even if the guilt is incontrovertible - if one trial is unfair then it brings the whole justice system into question.
The real crime is the one-sided extradition treaty and I have to say that calling it treason appeals to me.
Aren't they the home-made tubes that don't really do much other than make a statement?
Of course, when I say don't do much that doesn't mean I'd want one going off next to me, or anywhere near me, just that a single Israeli tank probably contains more explosives than all 9,000 missiles that have been fired.
I know it's a good way to settle your conscience telling yourself that you're performing a just and proportionate response but most of those missiles land in fields and olive groves (that were farmed by Palestinians for thousands of years before they were taken).
As a last point, and someone please set me straight, Judaism>Christianity>Islam (in age terms). The Christians and Muslims must have come from somewhere right? Would they have been Jews before changing their subscription? Meaning that those with an ancestral right were already there?
I mean, I'm no expert but I'd say a Semitic Palestinian has more claim to be there than a Russian.
There's a world of difference between "this is what we do, take it or leave it" and "this is what we do, take it and don't take anything else or we'll make you suffer".
But I'm sat next to a half dead laptop with a knackered CD drive that works when it wants.
It's been passed to my sister from my mum; the broken CD isn't an issue really (except for one major caveat to come) as my sister only browses the web with it.
So, I'm all set to install Linux with no window manager and just a browser which will keep her completely happy. Of course the knackered CD drive does present a bit of a problem unless I can find my old Debian net-install floppies (and they still work).
The only other option would be the boot from network option in the BIOS which will be a pain in the arse to get going, but I doubt it's impossible as I'm tapping away now on an iMac - which runs Unix, which means it's feasible.
I'm not sure what my conclusion is exactly other than that the author is simultaneously right and wrong on all fronts and my current dilema straddles every point made!
A browser only machine does suit some people and others need a stack with C compilers and the like to do things; which can be found on nice shiny expensive, but extraordinarily good value for money Apples which sometimes do a lot of things that Windows machines can only dream of without jumping through a lot of tiresome hoops.
I think the lesson is that we should all live in peace and harmony and accept that we don't all fit the same mould.
"GLIBC and shit" - I'm still laughing now. Not in the 'at' sense either but 'with'. Has the author thought about writing university courses?
There's no need for the quotation marks around chi, nor to qualify it as a belief.
Take some Tai Chi and Chi Kung lessons from someone who understands chi and you'll see for yourself.
Then you can also decide whether it's actually just suggestion that makes people believe in it.
Take the idea of chi, wrap it in a little yin and yang with a layer of the five agents of change and you can see the patterns and processes in the things that go on around you. When you can see them you can make you life a whole lot less stressful.
Leaving the chi part aside though there doesn't have to be anything mystical about the other two; you can just look at them as concepts or models that in some respect can be applied to almost everything in some way.
I seem to remember a Reg article (searched, couldn't find it ...) where some scientists were saying they've discovered that walking was a combination of standing up and falling over (it was about robots, probably DARPA ones).
They should have asked me; I'd already figured that out trying to think of examples to explain how the yin yang thing works. It was nice to know I was right though.
If you want mysticism, give the I Ching a try. It's mind blowing it really is.
It might just make you wonder.
If there's no point to what he's done then perhaps he's created a work of art. Isn't that a definition of art?
As for it not doing anything - neither did the first step towards the Linux kernel - it was just alternating numbers on a screen iirc.
You can all make jibes about meeting girls and the like, but without a whole bunch of people like that over the last fifty years or so, you wouldn't be able to sit in front of your PC and post shit on these comment boards.
Pierre is spot on - it's something fun. It's an achievement. Whoever the hacker is he has more chance of getting a girlfriend than 99% of the folks who post on here do of getting a Linux kernel running on an iPhone (through their own efforts, not by downloading something and following a step by step guide).
Yes, I'm in the 99%.
Or at least those of you who've questioned why the machines have to be shut down must. If there's no other reason then it's cost - 100 or 1000 machines hibernating for sixteen hours are still going to cost a few quid by the end of the year.
But then that's not the only reason.
What about updating machines over night? If it's off, then nobody's going to be logged in are they? Or what if you used a Linux image to copy over a new image of Windows overnight or even just update a few files? Surely that would warrant a shut down?
Finally of course, there's the fact that the time-clock software wouldn't work too well if you put the machine to sleep 'cause the software would never know it had been put to sleep would it?
Perhaps I'm thinking a bit too simple here but it sounds to me more like someone just fancied a bit more room for their pr0n collection.
The locked cupboard was probably the stationery cupboard or something and the person with light fingers probably thought they were old crap that would never be missed.
I bet they're shitting themselves now though.
This is the one where she claimed they never had sex isn't it? (I couldn't bare to watch it again).
If that's the case then the marriage can't have been consummated and if that's the case then he can apply for an annulment surely?
Then they were never married and she can't divorce him and so can't get a thing. It's that or admit she told a bare-faced lie to the entire world in order to damage his reputation or cause deliberate hurt.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ...
They couldn't give two hoots about the environment - it's all spin and money saving. If they use less energy they save money. If they tell the world that they're saving energy they can pretend they're all doing us a favour (PR for nothing).
It reminds me of the time I sat in one of Ronald McDonald's finest restaurants and read how they had all these wonderful environmentally friendly policies. As far as I could see, they were either forced to make the changes to meet legislative requirements or they saved a shit-load of money by doing whatever they said they were doing for the environment.
You know when a corporation is really doing something to help preserve the environment when they don't have to and it costs them more money to do than not. Unless those requirements are met they're just pretending to help the environment.
Just because something's environmentally friendly doesn't mean it's being done for the sake of the environment.
What would happen was every time I tried to sign in, it went into an infinite loop of redirections and never actually signed in.
To get it to let me sign in I had to delete all of the .live.com cookies I could find. Then it would let me in. Until I signed in again. Then the same thing would happen.
The only reason I switched to the super duper new fangled version was to stop it pestering me about using it.
A friend also had the same problem on his newly purchased Mac which we both solved by switching to Firefox.
I only use the hotmail account to sign up for things I expect to bombard me with crap anyway so it's not a massive problem.
In any case, I guess you answered your own question - the full version doesn't work with Safari.
Now, if the problem had presented itself to an average internet user they'd still be locked out as they'd never be able to get back in to switch to classic mode and probably wouldn't think to delete any cookies.
The system requirements omit the Mac and Linux totally, or at least I couldn't see them immediately (and now the message doesn't show at all) and yet the newer version runs fine on Firefox on this Mac - so, the system requirements don't seem to mean much at all anyway.
That said, MS do offer to let me upgrade to IE7 when using Safari, except when I get to the page there is of course no mention of OS X.
So erm, what can I say? When I managed to sign in the newer version worked fine with Safari, it was just getting signed in.
Maybe it works now. Maybe it doesn't? In the end it doesn't matter much 'cause I've got a few months of history on Firefox and won't be switching back to Safari unless Firefox does something to piss me off.
But you can trust me when I say something doesn't work.
Incidently, it's Firefox 2 I'm using the full version on, not 1.5 so it goes some way to proving you can ignore what websites tell you about the browser you should be using.
I'm a Mac user and I don't use Safari.
The reason for that is Hotmail doesn't work (not just me, a few other people I know also have this problem).
As people have stated OS X asks you whether you want to run an application that's been downloaded from the internet. Fine if you run OS X, not so fine if you run Windows.
My guess is Apple can't be arsed 'cause MS have managed to stop Hotmail working with OS X (unless you delete all cookies in which case you can sign in once before it goes into some infinite loop of redirection).
I guess it could be a bug in Safari but it's been about for a while (not that I've reported it; I just switched to Firefox instead - not that Firefox is what it used to be either) so I'd imagine it would have been fixed by now if it was.
Maybe that's the real story behind this little spat.
Tinfoil hat please.
When the oil runs out these folks will be doing what they've always done and doing it well.
Whereas we'll be running about trying to work out which way 'round to hold a bow and trying to find cave walls big enough to hold lengthy collections of comments on the picture at the top.
On that note, what will their archaeologists make of the various nob drawings they find on the few remaining bus shelters?
Might I suggest.
"This is clearly a shrine to a phallic god.
We think it was common to make an offering of a substance called Stella.
It would seem the ritual involved consuming the mind altering substance to initiate a state of altered-consciousness and then making a symbolic transferral of the bender's* inner state to the external which was achieved by pissing all over the shrine and then having a fight to decide who gets to have sex with the various priestesses in attendance.
We can only guess at these conclusions as no records of the peak of this civilisation have survived through the ages - indeed we believe that during the break-down of this civilisation there was some degeneration of literacy and the population abandoned the pursuit of knowledge and became obsessed with shiny metal discs instead.
* We believe that the high-priests were referred to as benders as evidenced by the prolific occurrence of phrases such as 'Jay is a bender' on these shrines"
It's not often I get to rattle my conspiracy sabre at 9/11 these days - thanks Reg!
A bunch of blokes like you and I fly a few light aircraft, play Microsoft Flight-Simulator and are able to pull a stunning 90-degree turn at high speed into a building with that experience.
On that basis I should be able, with the driving lessons I've had (not managed to pass a test yet) and a few goes on a formula one racing simulator be able to get an F1 car around a track in record speed. I doubt I could even pull away let alone get to 30mph.
There was already an attempt to destroy the WTC in 1993 that everyone forgets. Especially when it comes to politicians saying that they could never have imagined a group trying to destroy the WTC! They already did you morons.
Nobody would kill 3,000 people. Any ideas on how many would die if there was no oil available? Erm, I mean will die when.
Besides that, whoever did plan it would only have to be told that there would be an effective evacuation or that the planes would never reach the target and it would just create the necessary panic. After it happened nobody involved (who hadn't died or disappeared) is going to own up to it. Maybe they did plan for no fatalities - all but one or two people? Maybe it was a rogue member of the team in Dr Strangelove style?
They said they found a burnt passport in the wreckage for fuck's sake. I saw it on the news. Surely that should get the alarm bells ringing. They 'found' it within hours! What the fuck was that all about?
Anyone with half a brain can tell that something's not right when that happens. Surely it's obvious there was prior knowledge or an existing plan to pin the blame where it needed to be pinned. That in itself is evidence enough of a cosnpiracy isn't it?
I'll repeat again - someone claimed to have found one of the attacker's passports in the rubble within hours of the planes hitting.
Just to pull a random quote from above the comment box:
> And finally the number of people need for the conspiracy to work
Apparently a dozen students can pull it off.
> the guys in charge
They aren't going to own up to it.
> the guys who fired a missile at the pentagon
They might not be alive now. They aren't going to own up if they are. They wouldn't have done it if they didn't believe it was for the "greater good". (Consider how many men were ordered to walk to their deaths across no man's land in WWI. Perhaps it was necessary to destroy the evidence of what they'd done?
> the guys who diverted , then got rid of the passangers and crew of the plane that hit the pentagon.
Just insert some fake records into the systems and fly the planes from elsewhere. Fuck it, just fly the plane in with all the people on it. Or use a cruise missile and tell everyone it was a plane. Much easier for the fragile human mind to believe.
> the guys who laid the demolition charges in WTC1, 2 and 7
I'm guessing these weren't from an average demo-firm. Think black-ops. Think about whether they're still alive or whether there was actually any need for charges?
> The guys who rigged the remote control for the 2 aircraft that hit the WTC
Who says they knew what they were doing at the time. Who says they know now. Not that you have to tell them anything, but it's just as easy a year or two before to tell them they were rigging up target practice for some experimental missile in the desert. Get a couple of teams far apart to do it on two sets of planes and let them both think it was theirs that were destroyed in the test while the other set sits in a hanger somewhere.
> The number of people in the NTSC/CIA/FBI/ NY police who covered it up
I think the idea is to fool those lot in the first place. You can't cover up something that you don't think happened. Again, apparently it only takes a dozen students to do it.
> And then finally the fact that if any 1 of them blew the whistle, he'd get immunity , millions of dollars and most of the rest would goto the electric chair........."
Firstly, the likes of you would call the crack-pots. Secondly, I know if I was doing something like this I'd destroy all the evidence as I went along for the very reasons you've cited - everyone involved would donchafink? Thirdly, the whistleblower would get the covert electric chair - all the others involved would make sure of it.
Come on folks, pull your heads out of your arses. Just because you can't imagine doing something doesn't mean someone else can't and won't and just because someone does something it doesn't mean what they did was what they thought they did.
... it can be used for pornography.
I haven't a clue what that way would be but porn always leads the way when it comes to adopting and adapting new technology.
> The closing screen of the vid says "Armed 24/7/365 military trained Switch employed security staff"
So we just have to wait for a leap year? HA!
Or, if they're military trained we just have to wait for them to shoot each other or direct an air-strike on to themselves?
Isn't this extreme porn for Playmobil? This could land a lot of unsuspecting plastic toys in gaol.
Which they probably deserve judging by the state of their eyes and their perma-smiles - obviously at that evil Class B cannabis all the time.
Of course I have no facts or research to back this up - I'm relying on a bit of the so called common sense here to make this up:
I don't think it's a question of the German Government granting or denying permission to believe but more a question of denying the rights and privileges of a religion (probably on the whole tax breaks and stuff).
No more unfounded speculation now, just a bit of good old fashioned opinion.
Whether religions should be treated differently to any other type club is another matter entirely. Not that I'd be barred from the Freemasons for lack of belief in an overall cosmic force that is (I'm sure there's plenty of other reasons though) I'm just not sure religions can ever deliver the promise they make.
If we're talking about the original and underlying similarities between the big religions that's another matter - wonderful stuff at the core and hard to argue with in many respects. It's the men who've been in charge over the years who've pissed it all up and spoiled it.
If you want a good read then "The Great Transformation" by Karen Armstrong would do you well. I just wish a few fundamental Jews, Christians and Muslims would read it so they could learn what their fundamentals actually are!
and probably didn't read the article as well as I should have and haven't gone anyway near any of the supporting articles.
However, I suspect I can clear up some of the confusion around why these folks got nicked.
Someone said something along the lines of "... baseball bat and if you used it to kill someone ...". Now, you'd be in no trouble there. If however, someone asked you how best to make a bat for killing someone and you suggested hammering a nail through the end then we're in different territory.
From what I remember of the article they guys were mods on a forum and I seem to remember it being "providing a hacking advisory service" that they were charged for. If you write a book on physics you are not providing a "nuclear weapon advisory service" (if you look a bit foreign and are carrying a university level physics textbook around the City of London you can get nicked under terrorism charges though - happened a few years ago ...).
If you enable people to ask you questions and then give the answer to "what's the best way to compact my 16kg of enriched uranium in the shortest possible time to provide the best yield?" or probably even facilitate (actively) other people to answer then you've crossed a line. If you've made money out of doing so then you've taken a running jump at the line.
I could be wrong of course, and I'm sure in someone's opinion I am. I don't care though!
Tux? 'Cause the dbox2 runs on Linux!
Why can't they just have their own private network that isn't connected to the Internet? I can never understand why anyone would connect anything important or critical to the internet in the first place!
Yes it would be expensive but the military has never had a problem with pissing away money so I don't see it'd be a problem.
Macs are overpriced underspec'd poncey toys for people with too much money. Macs are great value for money - you couldn't get the same spec for the same money elsewhere. OSX is great Windows is shit. Windows is great OSX is shit. 2GB is nowhere near enough memory these days. 2GB might not be enough for Vista but Macs run fine with it. OSX copied Vista. Vista copied OSX. Some boring shit about the finer points of Intel processor technology that's the equivalent of showing everyone how big your willy is except nobody is interested whatever. OSX is shit and Windows is shit; I run Ubuntu blah blah blah. I hate Steve Jobs he eats babies. Bill Gates eats the babies and their mothers. I run Cock-Rot Linux and it's the best in the world and I don't know why everyone uses Ubuntu when you can do everything using Vi and the terminal feature of my obscure mobile phone (which nobody ever rings 'cause I've got no friends). Some other boring comment about processors from someone who wants to show the world that his willy is bigger than the other processor posters (okay, one person read the whole post). Apple hardware is overpriced I hate anyone with an iPhone. Actually BSD is much better than Linux or Windows or OSX, that's why such a large percentage of people have it installed on their home machines. Doh, didn't you know that OSX is Unix and runs BSD. Actually it's not Unix 'cause Apple won't pay for the certification. Yes it is. No it's not. Fanboi something. Don't you know the whole fan-boy thing is old and so juvenille, just like your spelling. I still use a Lisa and it does everything I need it to. I use a Commodore 64 with a hard-drive and it's better than the Lisa. I don't know what I'm talking about and haven't read the article but I'm going to chip in with something irrelevant and wrong anyway. OSX sucks. OSX rocks. Bootcamp. DRM. iTunes. Steve Jobs is on first name terms with Satan. Bill Gates is Satan. I've got an iPhone and I love it. It really pisses me off that Apple has to put i in front of everything. Something about PPC versus Intel. Something completely without evidence comparing Apples and Oranges (pun intentional) proving PPC is and always will be better than x86. Something completely without evidence comparing Apples and Oranges proving x86 is and always will be better than PPC. GPL. Google. Linux. QNX. My Dad's harder than your Dad. My Nan's harder than your nan. Something anti-American. Angry riposte proving anti-American point. Thoughtful welll thought out riposte clearly disproving anti-American point that nobody will ever read because there's so much uninformed chaff above it.
Aren't the dark ages called the dark ages because there's little record of them?
From what I gather, when great civilizations collapse most of their records disappear.
Looks like we're heading for the end of another era then.
The question is, if we devoted some effort to making sure our data will survive and can always be read and understood, would that stop the collapse of civilization?
I think that for a whole heap of reasons I can't be bothered to type it would and that society would improve.
That said, I'm still planning my bunker!
Just about the first thing the highway code says is give way to pedestrians.
That said any pedestrian should look where they're going.
I've been speaking on a mobile whilst walking before and wondered how I got where I was after the conversation (about fifteen minutes) finished.
When you're speaking on the phone, you're not in the same place that your body is; you're conscious mind is somewhere else. Having said that your unconscious mind is taking care of the stuff you do all the time - like when you manage to get home when you're so pissed you can barely get undressed when you actually get home (never done it? try drinking more).
The driver should be aware of what's going on around them. The pedestrian should too. But when it comes to it, it's the driver that's propelling a ton of metal at thirty miles per hour (because anywhere you're really like to come across a pedestrian crossing the road, the speed limit is thirty).
So whether the pedestrian is paying attention or not (and they should be) the ultimate responsibility lies with the driver as they're the ones that are acting outside of nature's limits (see how long you can travel at thirty miles per hour on foot).
On a slightly unrelated note, I think a better law to pass would be to make everyone re-take their driving test every ten years.
I reckon that, not withstanding the Apple-Labelled boo boo, what they want to do is be able to say how many machines are running Safari for all the marketing guff.
If I downloaded one copy and installed that on two machines they're missing out on the chance to say that another machine has Safari installed.
I'm sure you know what I mean but I can't be bothered to articulate it properly.
just put a bloody big lamp somewhere outside your terrorist training camp.
This seems to be a shining example of the above principle as discussed by Armando Iannucci in "The Armando Iannucci Shows". It goes something along the lines of - if you drink 3 pints and drive, you will have an accident. If you have 13 pints and drive you will wake up at home with the car perfectly parked on the drive (someone else's perhaps but perfectly parked nonetheless).
By the same token, if you steal a DVD from Woolworths you'll get a criminal record; if you steal a whole country you become king.
Don't do things by halves and you can't go wrong - you just have to go for excess - bottle out half way through and it's no good!
I don't drive by the way and don't condone drinking 13 pints whether you're driving or not.
... so if someone's pointed this out already, well I don't care.
You'll probably find that the plod noticed two men in a car looking suspicious - they were doing what they do; it could have burglars casing someone's house.
If I leave my front door open I am not inviting any of you stupid people to come in and take something that's mine.
You can give it all the twaddle about trespass being civil but if it's with criminal intent it becomes burglary (it's actually burglary with intent to commit theft and can also be with intent to commit rape or murder).
If you accidentally connect to the wrong network then your intention was not to take bandwidth that was not yours - you're unlikely to be prosecuted (unless you were reckless in which case you may be prosecuted).
Looking at someone's flowers is not stealing anything as nobody pays for that reflected light. It comes from the sun - it's nowhere near the same as stealing bandwidth.
Going back to the stupid comments about the police having nothing better to do; consider this - traffic cops, who are always slated for being so petty as to stop people who do something against the law (you know a bit of respect, politeness and a lack of belligerence will help turn points into a bollocking) arrest loads of people for other offences that come to light after the original stop. The way it works is that most criminals are actually stupid and also break lots of laws and often have warrants out on them which come to light when they're stopped for speeding (it's thirty for a reason in built up areas so don't fucking whine if you get caught by a camera).
Two people parked up in a car seem likely to have set out deliberately to steal bandwidth. They deserved to get nicked.
To all you people who think it's perfectly acceptable - I hope you get burgled or mugged.
I just wish I'd read this article earlier so more people would read this.
I remember reading an article in a paper some time ago about a leaked document and it mentioned some or other method that makes it possible to trace who produced the document.
Apparently the way around it was to get someone else to re-type the document before giving it to the journalist. Perhaps this was the method used?
Although I'm sure the technology will eventually be used on the public, I'll bet the original intention was to catch spooks leaking official secrets.

Tutor Training Overview
Proven and accredited teaching method.
Our volunteer training is based on proven methods for teaching reading and language. In 2002 we achieved accreditation by ProLiteracy America, the gold-plated standard for teaching basic reading, writing, and English language skills to adult non-readers.
Our approach is to equip tutors to provide highly individualized instruction that is learner-centered and life-skills based. Tutors learn to help their students read and speak English using a variety of techniques, such as phonics, multi-sensory activities, dialog, and real life role plays.
Tutor training sessions are highly interactive and incorporate demonstrations of teaching techniques, group exercises, and practice sessions. Upon completion of tutor training, you will be well equipped to be an effective and caring teacher for Literacy Council students.
Tutor Training Plan
Tutors receive fifteen hours of training in their chosen track – either Adult Education or English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL). Training is led by the Program Coordinator and we begin a new series of classes every other month.
The training plan includes:

Khyam Harewood Tent
The Khyam Harewood is a large 6-berth, three room tent that is ideal for large families or groups going on that longer summer break. This elegant and spacious tent is built using Khyam's unique Rapidex quick-erect pole system. The flysheet is pre-attached to the frame and the frame simple clicks into place from the central hub to have the tent erected in seconds.
The sleeping accommodation consists of two breathable polyester inners - one a 4-berth inner plus a second 2-berth inner which can also be removed if not required leaving you with lots of extra living space. The inners feature their own bathtub groundsheet and the 4-berth also has a clip-in divider curtain to introduce some privacy. The inners also have storage pockets for those nightime essentials.
The living area measures a generous 300x250cm (with both inners in place) providing plenty of space for your camp furniture. Additional space can also be created by purchasing the optional Classic Front Annexe that is available. The living area has a fully sewn in 150D polyester groundsheet which greatly enhances user comfort.
There are 2 PVC windows - with privacy covers - and two doorways which help allow in plenty of daylight. The front door is a large panel door that can be rolled-up or propped open to form a sun canopy (porch poles included). There's also a rear 'J' door to provide a futher entrance option - especially useful in poor weather conditions.
The flysheet is Khyam's own Weatherweave Pro, a durable double coated polyester with 5000mm hydrostatic head waterproof protection and fully taped seams.
The full features of the Khyam Harewood Tent include:
- Rapidex Quick Erect Frame

The Parabolic Dunefields are easily one of the most awesome geologic features on Cape Cod. The highest of the dunes, such as Mount Ararat, stand more than 100 feet in elevation, and the entire range of dunes extends more than four miles from Pilgrim Springs to Race Point. Parabolic dunes are named for their characteristic half-moon shape. They are highest in the middle and they taper down to the edges. The Provinceland dunes are migrating to the southwest, driven by winds that blow from the northeast. On GoogleEarth you'll find them at 42deg03'39.05"N 70deg07'42.05" W.
The migration of these dunes is a hazard to man, animal and plant life. At the parking lot for Pilgrim Lake, you can plainly see the dunes overtopping a forest at the lot's edge, while a short walk away, the dunes are slowly filling in a portion of Pilgrim Lake. A little further up Route 6, bulldozers constantly remove sand from the highway in an unceasing battle against the dune's advance.
The dunes are migrating, not only because of the strong northeast winds and steady supply of sand from the coast, but also because of man's impact on the environment. Long ago, Cape Cod was covered by a scrub pine forest. This provided a root system that acted as an anchor for the earth of the Cape, and kept the dunes in check. But early settlers cleared all of these forests for agriculture and firewood.
At the beginning of the nineteenth century, beach grass and pitch pine was replanted on the dunes which again checked their movement, but recent increased dune buggy and foot traffic has uprooted the delicate grass. This problem was solved by establishing well-marked trails for vehicular traffic, but in places the dunes continue to move.
Sand dunes migrate grain by grain. When the wind blows the individual sand grain forward, they fall to the earth and bump other sand grains forward. This is called saltation. The sand is moved by wind and saltation up over the dune crest, where it slides down the lee side, or slip face, and this is how the dune migrates. The slip face of a dune usually rests at a 30 to 34 degree angle- any steeper and the sand slides down by force of gravity.
The dunes can be seen from behind at the observation towers at Race Point. From here, you can see low flat blow-outs between the dunes created by the wind. As in the dunes at Sandy Neck, these blow-outs usually reach close to the waterline and eventually fill with vegetation, which helps stabilize the dune.

LG GW880 TD-SCDMA Android smartphone for China
Today, China Mobile and LG have showcased the GW880, LG's first smartphone to use the Android-based OMS (Open Mobile System) platform.
Featuring GSM and TD-SCDMA connectivity, the LG GW880 will be available via the largest Chinese mobile carrier later this year, for a price that was not announced.
The smartphone is a high-end one, as it comes with a 3.5 inch WVGA touchscreen display, 5MP camera with flash, Mobile TV, 512MB ROM and 256MB RAM.
Here's what the GW880 looks like:
We're probably not going to see the LG GW880 outside China, but that's OK, since LG is surely preparing some Android phones for other markets.

Interesting facts and notes about the text of this chapter:
Much of the Lexicon's historical information on the development of
broomsticks comes from this chapter.
...the invention of the Cushioning Charm by Elliot Smethwyck in 1820
went a long way towards making broomsticks more comfortable than ever
broomsticks were generally
incapable of achieving high speeds and were often difficult to control at
high altitudes.

for endurance flying and to withstand high winds.

Apparition becomes increasingly unreliable over very long distances,
and only highly skilled wizards are wise to attempt it across continents.
The Moontrimmer...these slender, ash-handled brooms
The Moontrimmer's principal advantage over other brooms was its ability
to achieve greater heights than ever before (and remain controllable at
such altitudes).

Magic 99, Heat 96
Observations from Thursday's 99-96 loss to the Magic at AmericanAirlines Arena:
- Atrocious. Simply atrocious. When the going gets tough, this team is gone.
- And, uh, how about running a play at the finish, any finish?
- Enough about who the Heat doesn't want to face in the playoffs. Any team fits that billing at this stage.
- Dwyane Wade had 24 at halftime and LeBron James 23, making it the first time the Heat had pair of 20-point scorers in a half since Wade and Damon Jones did it in the 2nd half of Dec. 15, 2004 game against Washington. Trouble was, there wasn't much more in the face of adversity.
- The best Magic player in the first half was Ryan Anderson, so perhaps it's no surprise that the Heat led 63-45 at the intermission.
- And then the Magic began to hit their stride from beyond the 3-point line and there was trouble, real trouble, especially from Jason Richardson.
- With Mike Bibby in, your odd man out, at least for now, appears to be Eddie House. Playing with your brother-in-law apparently is sort of like living with your mother-in-law.
- Dwight Howard called for a sizable response, so Zydrunas Ilgauskas was the first center off the bench behind Erick Dampier, not Joel Anthony. Anthony entered at the start of the second quarter.
- Mike Miller tossed in a 70-footer at the end of the second half that was ruled late. Miller also dunked in the first half, after claiming he no longer had such hops.
- Hitting 3-pointers when they counted was another issue for the Heat.
- The Heat opened 17 of 17 from the line before Wade missed a pair midway through the third quarter. He had been 6 of 6 to that stage.
- After that 17 of 17, the Heat missed five of their final six free throws of the third quarter.
- When Bibby went to the bench late in the second quarter, Wade took over at the point, not starter Mario Chalmers. That allowed Erik Spoelstra to keep LeBron and Miller on the court.
- Bibby has yet to learn about never passing to Anthony while Anthony is on the move. Bosh salvaged that fourth-quarter possession with a jumper.
- Bosh did not grab his first rebound until the opening minutes of the third quarter.
- Still can't help but think Corey Brewer would have helped plenty as a defensive wing. Also appreciate, however, that the Heat did not have the cash to match the Mavericks. Leon Powe not proven enough to be considered a loss.
- Short notice left Carlos Arroyo featured on the big screen during the pregame introductions.
- Magic coach Stan Van Gundy said it will be interesting to see how the addition of Bibby shakes up the Heat rotation, when it comes to Chalmers and House. "I don't see how you do it without one of those guys coming out of the rotation," Van Gundy said. "Eventually, one of them will have to be out. With Chalmers, they lose a lot defensively, and if it's House coming out of the rotation, I don't see how you gain a lot of shooting, because of what Eddie does. I don't know how much of a net difference Mike makes."

text: Aug 31, 2014 02:09 Ravens at Saints: Three and out Ravens at Saints: Three and out Associated Press file photo by BILL HABER -- Saints wide receiver Nick Toon works before the first half of a game against the Buffalo Bills last season. Toon is angling for a spot on the roster ahead of Robert Meachem and Joe Morgan. BY NICK UNDERHILL| firstname.lastname@example.com Aug. 27, 2014; 10:58 p.m. Comments 1. QUARTERBACKS IN THE SPOTLIGHT AGAIN The Saints might only carry only two quarterbacks into the season regardless of who wins this job, but it's also possible that they'll carry both Ryan Griffin and Luke McCown if McCown wins the job. That means a roster spot will be taken away from another position. 2. THE RECEIVER BATTLE It looked like Nick Toon was ahead of Robert Meachem and Joe Morgan on the depth chart last week. Toon played more snaps than either player, and Meachem was on the field late into the fourth quarter. Will that continue to hold true this week? 3. THE SAFETY BATTLE Will CFL import Marcus Ball return to action after missing some time with an undisclosed injury? It looked like Ball was ahead of the undrafted Pierre Warren earlier in the preseason, but this race is close. Getting back on the field would help Ball close this out.

Flight 370 landed? In an update on the mysterious disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, an electronic and satellite data analysis by officials from the United States and Malaysia revealed that the Boeing plane probably crashed in the Indian Ocean after following two possible paths, according to a March 14 CNN report.
Researchers have a growing suspicion that foul-play was involved in the sudden disappearance of Flight 370 and that someone with knowledge of aviation was responsible for the turnaround, said a Malaysian government official on Friday.
CNN writes: "The more the United States learns about the flight's pattern, 'the more difficult to write off' the idea that some type of human intervention was involved."
China F-35 secrets stolen from the US: Could this spell war with China?
A U.S. official in Washington said that investigators are considering that the incident could be the result of an "act of piracy." The source, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the press, said it was possible the plane crash landed somewhere after being hijacked.
One of the trajectories suggests that the plane crashed into the Bay of Bengal, off the coast of India, while the other indicates that headed southeast and fell into the Indian Ocean.
The Washington Post reports "that the new leads about the plane's path, though ambiguous, have drastically changed a search operation involving more than a dozen nations. Malaysia on Saturday said that efforts would be terminated in the Gulf of Thailand and the South China Sea, the spot where the plane first disappeared from civilian radar."
The Boeing 777 from Malaysia Airlines that vanished Saturday morning over the South China Sea is one of the most popular and safest aircrafts in the world, which adds to the theory that the flight was hijacked.
But what's most impressive is their safety record: The first fatal accident in its 19 year history occurred last July.
"It has provided a new standard in both efficiency and safety," said Richard Aboulafia, an aviation consultant with the Teal Group. The 777 has enjoyed one of the safest records of any jetliner built."
Besides last year's Asiana crash, the only other serious incident with the 777 came in January 2008 when a British Airways jet landed about 1,000 feet short of the runway at London's Heathrow Airport.
Some have suggested that a catastrophic explosion could have happened to sabotage the plane. The sabotage theory had greater relevance Friday when The Wall Street Journal reported that investigators suspect communications systems of the aircraft were turned off manually.
Aviation experts say that while possible, it is very unlikely that someone could have hijacked and then landed the giant Boeing 777 undetected.

Grachan Moncur III: Thandiwa
Grachan Moncur III (trombone)
Some Other Stuff (Blue Note 32092)
Grachan Moncur III (trombone), Wayne Shorter (tenor sax), Herbie Hancock (piano), Cecil McBee (bass), Tony Williams (drums).
Composed by Grachan Moncur III.
Recorded: Englewood Cliffs, NJ, July 6, 1964
Rating: 88/100 (learn more)
The only chord change-based tune on an album of otherwise free-form pieces, "Thandiwa" is an angular waltz made up of 4-bar phrases in AABB form. Of the four solos, the leader's is, oddly enough, the shortest and most tentative. Shorter stretches out, exploring the tune from every angle, developing short motives, toying with the rhythms, and dissecting the changes before winding things up with some quiet sheets of sound. It's nice to be reminded of how great Herbie Hancock sounded on a real piano and in the company of his peers. Though the personnel consists of 3/5 of the Miles Davis Quintet at the time, Moncur's music puts things into an entirely different sound world.

UCLA Center for Buddhist Studies: An Investment in the Future
Building Upon a Rich Tradition of Academic and Community Resources
The programs of the Center for Buddhist Studies benefit from the generosity of donors around the world. Only a small portion of the Center's operating budget is provided by the state and the university; the rest comes from donations and grants. The goal of the UCLA Center for Buddhist Studies is to build on the past accomplishments of UCLA's Buddhist Studies faculty, and to secure a permanent endowment for the Center to ensure that it can carry on its work without being subject to the vagaries of state funds.
Among recent donations, the Center for Buddhist Studies is especially grateful to the Daehaeng Cultural Foundation for its support of the Daehaeng Fellowship in Korean Buddhism Studies, which offers two full fellowships each year to Ph.D. students in Buddhist Studies who specialize on Korea. The foundation is affiliated with the Hanmaum Seonwon in Anyang, South Korea, and has named the fellowship after its spiritual mentor, the eminent Korean Buddhist nun Daehaeng Kŭn-sŭnim.

hi all , we bought our daughter a pony before xmas , small gypsy type cob . we were told he was over 4 years . my daughter rode him , tacked up and he was great , by riding i just mean hacking . he really hasnt done much over winter due to weather etc , but he has become very mouthy and uncomfortable with the bit (any mild bit). alot of other people thought he may be younger , although the lady i bought him off insisted he was deff over 4 and thought he may have wolf teeth . i arranged with my vet to come and examin ponys mouth and raised my concerns about wolf teeth age etc . vet arrived , never gagged pony , said he was lovely and was very nice but basically laughed and aged him as a very young pony 2 or 2 n half and left all in 5 mins . the lady who i bought pony off rang me to see if she was right about wolf tooth or teeth and i said vet never checked for that , just said he was much younger than 4 , more like 2 . the lady said that was rubbish . so i arranged for equine dentist to visit , telling him about all this confusion . dentist arrived , great guy , gagged pony and showed us the wolf tooth , then he aged him at over 4 and a half years . he bridled horse and as soon as any contact was made with reins , bit hit off wolf tooth, his advice was to have it removed and that the pony was deff not 2 years as vet had said but was the correct age that the seller said . the vet bill came through , i did ring reception explaining my concerns and got a voicemail back , saying receptionist had spoke to vet and she said she thought his "playing" with the bit is because he hasnt been mouthed properly before i bought him , nothing was said about the age , and that she thought the wolf tooth would have nothing to do with the uncomfortableness . please allow me to say this is not about the money , we love the pony very much and want to do the best for him , but if the vet was right about the age then the pony would not be rode . which is fine as my daughter hasnt anyway . but its not really the point when the dentist says hel be 5 this year . i have contaced another vet practice and they are coming at the same time as dentist and the wolf tooth is being removed, under sedation , anesthetic etc , as i say its not the money , i just wouldnt have expectedcomplete different diagnoses from 2 pros . your opinion would be gratefully appreciated , ps , his passport also ages him as comimg 5 years .

Gosh, I understand your confusion. I know ageing a horse isn't always spot on, but apparently the younger they are the easier it is, so like you I'm quite suprised. I'd wait to see what the next people you're having have to say. Just a thought, how long did the lady you buy him off of have him? Perhaps do a bit of tracing back if you can. Maybe find out when she bought him, from who, etc.

I'm getting confused just reading this, so god knows how your feeling This is what i think you wouldnt go to the doctors for your teeth would you? you'd go see the dentist and why?? because its their job. The same as you wouldnt go to dentist if youve got chicken pox or an ear infection. Sounds simple. If it was me I would ask the dentist for his permission to forward his details to vet and just ring up or better still visit the vet and refuse to pay the bill stating why. You have an equine dentist on your side. I think you'll soon find this whole matter just disappears. The vet is wrong its a mis-diagnosis and he/she knows it.

This article should help to explain it for you so you will be able to have a look at the teeth yourself and you will know if your pony is 2 or 5. The teeth are quite good to tell you your horses age for a while, it gets harder the older the horse is but it is very easy upto age 5. I would say your vet got it wrong. Wolf teeth are also quite easy to see if your pony will let you look in his mouth, they are just infront of the back teeth and the bit will knock them causing discomfort for the pony.
. .A horse is a thing of such beauty. . .none will tire of looking at him as long as he displays himself in his splendor.

I agree - dentists spend all their days looking at horses' teeth so know a thing or three about them. Vets do a very short period of time in their training covering dentistry and are, in the main (though not without exception) as good as our GPs would be with teeth (in my opinion) I also think (especially if they are not EQUINE vets) that some vets are a bit nervous of the biting and kicking ends and will do anything to avoid getting involved with them! Dentistry between 2 and 4 is very different and I am surprised that any professional could get it that wrong! Money or not it sounds as though your vet has probably made a mistake!

In my experience most vets dont like being particulaly close to the biting end of a horse so dont spend too much time actually looking in it! I would trust the dentist, he will have had far more specialized training in acurating aging through teeth. Its never exact as some horses hold their "baby" teeth appearance longer and some get more grown up teeth sooner but a good dentist can age a horse within a rough 6month period. As your pony has wolf teeth its unlikely he is under 3 years old so I would say your vet is quite simply wrong and I personally would be a bit ppeved at paying the bill when he has not done a proper inspection of pony's mouth but he will more than likely say he only gave you a rough estimate of age and still expect you to pay up.
a pony is a child's dream and an adult's treasure.
thankyou sooo much for all your opinions , this is why i rang the vets to explain about this , the only reply i got was the voicemail about in her opinion it was nothing to do with wolf tooth only he hadnt been mouthed properly before i bought him . nothing was mentioned on voicemail about the age . had i not had the 2nd opinion from the equine dentist i could still be under the illusion that the pony was 2 years and we would just be letting him be a baby . prob would have ended up with a 7 year old just being a baby haha .im not sure wether i should just pay the bill to save the upset as this vet deff doesnt want to even consider she could be wrong . but on the other hand i dont want to pay and let this type of treatment go on for other people. the equine dentist is coming to my yard at same time as new vet for wolf tooth extraction , maybe i should get two age confirmations from them and send that to first vet . thankyou all again i feel alot better standing my ground as i was feeling intimidated by the first vet x

How horrible for you. I'd definitely listen to the dentist, they have so much more knowledge about the mouth. Also I would be contacting the vets as they clearly haven't done a proper job so you should not be paying them. Like you said get confirmation from the dentist and other vet to prove your point. I've heard before of vets completely mis aging horses so i never have them do teeth! Hope all goes well having Wolfe teeth removed x

Big Second Period Carries Maine Past UMass Hockey, 8-4
Oct. 26, 2013
ORONO, Maine - The UMass hockey team held a 1-0 lead after one, but a six-goal second period helped carry Maine past the Minutemen, 8-4 on Saturday night at Alfond Arena. Following the setback, UMass is now 2-4-0 on the year, while the Black Bears improve to 3-2-0.
Redshirt junior Troy Power, with a shorthanded goal and a power-play tally, registered his first career multi-goal game. Power, who eclipsed his previous career high in goal scoring with his third and fourth of the season in the contest, is now just two points shy of his previous season best (nine in 31 games in 2011-12).
Senior Michael Pereira logged his fifth career multi-goal game with his first two tallies of the season. With the pair, he cracked the UMass top-10 in career goals (tied for 10th with 44) and entered the top-20 in career points (19th with 89).
Freshman Steven Iacobellis recorded his second multi-point game in the past three contests and senior Joel Hanley notched a pair of helpers, as well. Hanley extended his point-scoring streak to five straight games, tying a career high.
On Maine's first power play of the night, it was UMass that came away with a goal, taking a 1-0 lead 2:43 into the opening period. Upon retrieving the puck below the goal line, Iacobellis sent a centering pass that Power buried from the slot for his first career shorthanded tally.
Just 1:43 into the second, the Black Bears pulled level with the Minutemen, 1-1. Josh Henke's shot from the right faceoff circle found its way over the shoulder of freshman netminder Alex Wakaluk.
UMass regained the advantage, though, with the squad's 10th power-play goal of the year. Hanley collected a puck left behind the Minuteman net by Wakaluk and sent an outlet pass ahead to Pereira, who drove to the net on the right wing and snapped one past Martin Ouellette.
However, Maine erupted for five goals by five different players over the next ten minutes, 49 seconds to take a 6-2 lead into the second intermission, which included the squad's two power-play tallies on the evening.
Steven Swavely caused a turnover and scored the Black Bears' seventh of the night 6:33 into the third before the Minutemen managed to pull back to within three.
Power knocked in his second of the game at 9:46 in the third on the power play from Iacobellis and Steven Guzzo. Then Pereira added UMass' final goal of the evening and third with the man advantage at the 12:27 mark to bring the score to 7-4. Hanley and senior Conor Sheary collected the assists.
Mark Anthoine would cap off the scoring with an empty net goal 18:37 into the final stanza for his fourth point of the night. Cam Brown and Blaine Byron both had multi-point efforts for Maine, as well, each with a goal and three assists.
The squads finished even in shots at 32 apiece. Ouellette totaled 28 saves for the Black Bears, while Alex Wakaluk and junior Steve Mastalerz had 17 and seven, respectively, between the pipes for UMass.
The two teams will meet again next weekend for a pair of Hockey East games in Amherst, beginning on Friday, Nov. 1, at 7:00 p.m.

Goshen High special needs student gets asked to prom by four friends
Over the weekend, a special needs student was asked to go to prom by four of her childhood friends.
A special needs student at Goshen High School is going to prom with not one, but four dates.
The four guys, all students at Goshen High School, went to Alaina Witmer's house on Saturday and held up signs asking her to go to prom with them and their dates, The Elkhart Truth's news partner WNDU reported.
"It was actually pretty exciting and everybody starting crying, like all the parents," Bryce Bender, one of the boys who asked Witmer, told WNDU. "It was really exciting for all of us to ask her."
Bender said Alaina has been their classmate since the third grade.
Witmer has already picked out a yellow dress to wear.
Goshen High School's prom is May 17 at the Palais Royale in South Bend.

Jon Dough plays a visiting professor at a local university who must secure housing for the semester. Normally, renting from two beautiful sisters (Cameo and Susan Vegas) would be delightful, but when their jealousy over his favors erupts, his hot times are threatened. The average sex scenes in this feature are given an injection of heat by the excellent camera work and a couple of humorous situations. There is one anal sequence, and Sabrina Dawn turns in a steamy performance. When these assets are couples with the below average sets, this tape comes out just a hair above average.
