A firefighter has been injured and homes are under threat from two new bushfires near Bundaberg.
As well as the major bushfire at Gaeta, which has burnt about 300 square kilometres of bush and farmland since it started five days ago, there are now fires burning at Horse Camp, south of Gin Gin, and Cordalba, and north of Childers.
Queensland Fire and Rescue's Ian Hawkins says the fire at Horse Camp is threatening houses, and a firefighter is being treated for fatigue. Two helicopters have been deployed to the fire, for water bombing and aerial surveillance.
Mr Hawkins says there is a one kilometre fire front at Cordalba, and the blaze there has jumped the road.
Thirty-two emergency services crews are fighting a bushfire at Gaeta, which has burnt about 300 square kilometres of bush and farmland since it started five days ago.
Teams from urban and rural fire brigades are battling the Kalpower Road blaze with help from ambulance, police and State Emergency Service personnel. Teams from Brisbane, Ipswich and New South Wales have arrived to relieve local crews.
Firefighters are using graders to build containment lines, before backburning to prevent the fire from moving northwest.
The Gaeta fire is currently not threatening property.

Siemens Sued Over Cancellation of Alarm Funding IPO
Siemens First Capital Commercial Finance LLC was sued in New York state court for breach of contract over the cancellation of an initial public offering for a security-alarm service business.
The suit, filed yesterday in New York state Supreme Court in Manhattan, accuses Siemens First Capital of "intentionally destroying" three related companies that were planning an initial public offering.
Siemens told Whitecap (US) Fund I LP, the majority owner of Alarm Funding LLC, the parent of the three companies, in March 2011 that the companies had defaulted on an $85 million loan because the public offering hadn't been completed by March 1, according to the lawsuit.
The companies had never missed a payment on the loan and had repaid $47 million, the complaint shows. Whitecap and two related entities filed the suit, which seeks damages of more than $20 million, on behalf of the companies.
"Siemens was not content with what it was entitled to under the contract, i.e. repayment in full over time," according to the lawsuit. "Instead, Siemens wished to extract as much money as possible from the alarm funding companies as quickly as it could."
Siemens First Capital Commercial Finance is a joint venture between the U.S. financial services unit of Munich-based engineering company Siemens AG and Boca Raton, Florida-based financial firm First Capital, according to its website. A voice-mail message left with an outside spokeswoman for the company wasn't immediately returned.
The case is Whitecap (US) Fund I LP v. Siemens First Capital Commercial Finance LLC, 650888/2012, New York state Supreme Court (Manhattan).

The latest of a series of weather systems to pummel the
winter-weary eastern United States, the storm was expected to
blanket the US capital with up to 23cm of snow as it swept
from the Mississippi Valley to the Carolinas and Mid-Atlantic
states, the National Weather Service said.
Brian Hurley, a weather service meteorologist, said
temperatures would be about 15degrees Celsius below normal as
a cold front gripped from the Great Plains to the Atlantic
Although the snow is expected to bypass northern cities
including New York and Boston, by early on Monday New York's
temperature had already peaked at -5C, he said.
"This is yet another in a series of arctic outbreaks all
winter," Hurley said.
Freeze warnings were in place from the Canadian border into
Texas. The main electric grid operator for most of Texas
issued a conservation alert due to expected higher power
The storm shrouded the Capitol in snow and prompted the US
government to shutter its Washington area offices, keeping
hundreds of thousands of federal workers at home. Congress
put off scheduled votes because of the bad weather.
The governors of New Jersey, Delaware, Mississippi and
Tennessee declared states of emergency, and schools and local
governments throughout the area closed. Maryland state
offices shut down and West Virginia state workers were on a
delayed schedule.
In Philadelphia's downtown Gallery mall, Juanita Thomas, 57,
was waiting to go to her local bank, which planned to open
two hours late due to the storm. She had no complaints about
the repeated snowstorms that have clogged the city's streets
and shut down schools.
"I wish it would have snowed on Christmas for my grandkids,"
Thomas said. "God's giving it all to us now."
About 2,250 flights were cancelled and 1,200 were delayed on
Monday because of the storm, according to the airline
tracking site FlightAware.com.
The worst-hit airport was Washington's Reagan National, where
almost two-thirds of flights were called off. The ripple
effect from cancellations and delays is expected to have an
impact on air travel across the United States.
"Snowfall rates at the height of the storm may reach 5cm per
hour, causing the snow to quickly clog major interstates,"
the AccuWeather forecasting service said.
At least two weather-related deaths, both from traffic
accidents, were blamed on the wide-ranging storm over the
On the West Coast, a weather front will move onshore over the
Pacific Northwest and northern California through Tuesday,
bringing much-needed rain and snow to the region, the
National Weather Service said.
Snow is also expected over parts of the Rocky Mountains and
the northern Great Plains, it said.
A major highway linking Dallas to Houston, Interstate 45, was
turned into a parking lot for hours on Sunday due to an ice
storm that halted traffic.

Feminist Task Force
The Feminist Task Force was launched in March, 2005 when leaders of international women's rights groups met in New York to attend the annual meeting of the UN Commission on the Status of Women. This alliance aims to put gender equality at the core of poverty eradication, framing poverty as a women's issue and calling for "Gender Equality to End Poverty."

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Travel into the heart and soul of Indochina
Join us as we travel into the heart and soul of Indochina. Starting off in Vietnam, cruise through dramatic karst scenery on a boat tour of Halong Bay, step back into the world of the country's last emperors in Hue, soak up the old-world charm of Hoi An and be awed by the endless energy of Ho Chi Minh City. In Cambodia, discover the country's fascinating history and culture in Phnom Penh's heaving streets and in the awe-inspiring temples of Angkor. Combining highlights of both countries, the Best of Vietnam and Cambodia tour will open your eyes to the delights of Indochina and leave you awe-struck by these magical locations.
- Soak up the atmosphere of Hanoi
- Cruise Halong Bay on a junk boat
- Visit Hue and discover imperial relics
- Chill out in charming Hoi An
- Discover a slower pace of life in the Mekong Delta
- Revisit Cambodia's dark past in Phnom Penh
- See the incredible temples of Angkor Wat
- Feast on a tasty plate of pad thai
Day 1 Hanoi
If you arrive early into the capital of Hanoi, there's plenty to see and do. Admire the city's French-colonial architecture, wander the Old Quarter or head to the Temple of Literature. Relax in a park or enjoy some street food by Hoan Kiem Lake, surrounded by modern office buildings and ancient Buddhist temples.
Notes: If you can't arrange a flight that will arrive in time, you may wish to arrive a day early so you're able to attend. We'll be happy to book additional accommodation for you (subject to availability). If you're going to be late, please inform the hotel reception.
Day 2 Halong Bay
The sailing junk has twin share cabins with air-conditioning and private facilities. There's also a dining room and bar to enjoy lunch, dinner and breakfast.
Notes: It is recommended to pack a smaller overnight bag to take to Halong Bay for ease of getting on and off boats. You can store your main luggage in Hanoi for tonight.
There are restrictions on the number of boats that are permitted to stay in the bay overnight, sometimes resulting in a shortage. To ensure all Intrepid travellers can enjoy the experience of a night on the water, we're occasionally using a larger boat (with approximately 12 cabins) or splitting groups across different vessels. An Intrepid group leader will be present on each boat, and the route taken and inclusions on board will remain the same.
Your leader will discuss the option for swimming from Ti Top Island beach during the warmer months. Swimming in the bay from the boats is not permitted.
Day 3 Hanoi / Overnight Train
Day 4 Hue
Once the imperial capital of Vietnam, Hue holds the treasures of the country's royal past. You'll have free time in the morning to rest or explore. The bustling Dong Ba Market is a great place to sample some of the foods that once graced the Nguyen emperors' tables, such as banh khoai (royal rice cake). After lunch, reunite with the group to visit the war-damaged ruins of the Hue Imperial Citadel complex, which once contained temples, state houses and the emperor's palace.
Day 5 Hue
Enjoy a short boat cruise down the Perfume River before eating lunch inside a nunnery. Finally, visit the lakeside royal tomb of Emperor Tu Duc before heading back to Hue.
Notes: For those who do not wish to ride on the back of a motorbike, please let you leader know and they will arrange a car.
Also, boats for the Perfume River trip may not be available if you're travelling during festival periods. During these times you'll travel by land to reach the activities instead.
Day 6 Hoi An
Day 7 Hoi An
Day 8 Ho Chi Minh City
Day 9 Mekong Delta/Ho Chi Minh City
Enjoy a group dinner at KOTO restaurant, an organisation dedicated to developing the hospitality careers of street kids.
Day 10 Ho Chi Minh City
You have a free day to consider many optional activities.
You also have the option today to take an Urban Adventures tour to the Cu Chi tunnels outside the city. This underground tunnel network in the middle of the jungle was used by the Viet Cong during the war.
As this is a combination trip, your group leader and the composition of your group may change at this location. There will be a group meeting to discuss the next stage of your itinerary and you're welcome to attend, as this is a great chance to meet your new fellow travellers.

Best of Vietnam & Cambodia , June 2016
Barry Davies
I have spent many years on and off teavelling alone where it takes a lot longer to organise travel in many destinations and intrepid has surprised me as you can reach all the main sights with like minded people with all the arrangments done for me which can save me weeks in time. The groups generally give you the option of free time also which is good. I have to also admit that i have made some good freinds on theses trips giving me further travel opertunities.

Best of Vietnam & Cambodia , June 2016
Graeme Hight
Intrepid tours are great for those who want a little more than just the known highlights as they can take you "backstage" to some experiences an independent traveller might not see or spend time finding.

U.S. Churchgoers Still Sit in Segregated Pews, and Most Are OK with That
On the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday (Jan. 15), just as the civil rights drama Selma was nominated for best picture in the Oscar race, one fact of American life was little changed.
Sunday morning remains, as King once observed, the most segregated hour in America. And, against a backdrop of increased racial tensions, new research shows that most Americans are OK with that.
Two in three (66 percent) Americans have never regularly attended a place of worship where they were an ethnic minority, according to new polling analysis released by LifeWay Research.
"People like the idea of diversity. They just don't like being around different people," said Ed Stetzer, executive director of the Nashville, Tenn.-based research firm.
"Maybe their sense is that church is the space where they don't have to worry about issues like this," he said. But that could be a problem, because, Stetzer said, "If you don't like diversity, you're really not going to like heaven."

I'm using a plugin "Display Widgets 1.12" to control what pages my widgets appear on. That plugin works for everything except "Now Reading Reloaded." The options should be visible on the appearance->widgets dashboard, but they are not. Now Reading Reloaded instead only offers a "Title" property.
I presume there is a hook-point that Reading Reloaded must add to achieve this compatability?
I am using version 18.104.22.168 of Now Reading Reloaded.

I run an online marketing agency and each client has a lot of documentation and files which I would like to provide access to securely through a client zone on the Agnew Solutions website.
I would like to know what plugins would be required to set this up, each client would have an individual username and password which would send them to a page with links to all project documents - however, each file would need to be only visible to that individual account and perhaps password-protected also for additional security.
I do not have a significant budget and preferably the plugins would be free, if you are aware of a solution to my problem please let me know - perhaps a link to a how-to video to assist in setup would also be useful?

[Help workshop] Quick storyline idea thread

Pokemon Yellow Moon.
I came up with that title at random, would actually be a firered hack.
Ideas I'm playing with for the story.
1. The protagonist is from our world, who through an experiment slips into the Pokemon world, but the connection back is severed when it turns out the device thay let him pass through, doesn't function in Pokemon world. He was given an electronic recording system to monitor the strange beings on the other side though, and he decides to continue his experiment while searching for a way home. however...
2The world of Pokemon is in trouble, but not because of a cult-like team, because of you! In this Pokemon world it turns out your existence is a threat to the balance of worlds, and so, you're being chased by the Poke-guard. An elite group of trainers/peace keepers in the Cyil region (new region obviously), under the orders of the Defenders, The masterminds behind the Poke-guard. But your no pushover, and thanks to some assistance from a trainer who gives you one of his Pokemon for protection, you now have the means to fight back.
Major Plot points (spoilers if i ever get good enough at scripting to make this thing)-
1. One of the Defenders is a traitor, and is plotting to overthrow the peaceful government of Cyil by deceiving the others into making you their enemy. In reality however, while they are dealing with you, he's out hunting and training his own secret forces, the New-Power, a group of 4 trainers he selected himself and armed with extremely powerful Pokemon. At the same time, he himself is collecting legendary Pokemon in hopes of creating a dictatorship after he defeats the other defenders. He also intends to destroy the New-Power so nobody can oppose him.
2. The trainer you meet who gives you a pokemon is actually the true leader of the Defenders, and manipulated you to fight his own loyal supporters, so that you would be strong enough to fight along side him against the traitor's legendary Pokemon team. He is a great leader and believes in justice. though he manipulated you, he is honestly torn over whether what he's doing is right or wrong, and after the final battle, offers to help you get home, and as long as you're in Cyil, you'll have all the rights of a defender (opening up new dungeons where you couldn't go before). There is also an event with him where he tries to reopen the rift between worlds (which leads to a legendary pokemon)
3. It turns out the leader did all this because he was shown by Celebi that you would be the key to maintaining peace, but only if you struggled to grow stronger.
I was also thinking about maybe having a little bit of romance somewhere in there. I think a good story needs some love. Maybe, have the protagonist and one of the higher ranking female defenders have feelings for each other (and maybe tie a legendary event to it.)
What do you think? I tried to keep it similar enough gameplay wise by keeping eight boss battles, something like the elite four, and a team to face. but wanted to twist it enough the story didn't feel stale.

The good side is called the Allies force lead by the council of Elites. This war have devasated families because members have to go fight in the war. The war had devastated Pokemon who became vistims of the Team S reign of fire. So this war have been going on 11 years now. Team S have taken over the Sinnoh and Sinnoh. They have now begin to attack Kanto. Lance the leader of Kanto have decide to form a project called EPT (Elite Pokemon Trainers). This group was train to be able to weild any Pokemon and use it for special military operation. You have been invited in that group with your friend and rival Forst. You have been in that group for 6 months and have passed the hard training. You and your squad are now assign their first Pokemon and mission to capture a Team S general and bring him to Lance for integregation.
Should I add gyms and the Pokemon league?
Is there anything I should add to the storyline?
Should I make the plot more like COD's or keep it as original as I can
well, last question first, never make your plot "more like" anything. When you have the freedom to come up with whatever you want, making it like something else you already know or is popular seems like a waste, you know?
I like the story line. But how would you start off? it seems a little odd, story wise, to pass months of training to be able to use any pokemon, and for your first mission you get a level 5 starter. Maybe, add the training as part of the game instead of something inferred. Hell, you could have the majority of the game in training. Make the gym leaders into your teachers/masters, who you have to defeat to move on to the next lesson/training phase or something. And then have the missions be extremely tough post 8 leader dungeons. Or not. It's your thing. But if you do start after training, then maybe you should give some reason or plot point as to why your pokemon is so weak and there's only 1. like it's a tradition or something that they receive one newborn partner after training, but have to raise them on their own to prove themselves.
These are just my ideas, do what you want. If you don't mind though, and don't do it yourself, I might use something like this myself though... I like the idea of a school like environment for training elite pokemon trainers.

In a rush of adrenaline and uncertainty, you hurry to find your parents. Before you know it, the boat is shaking back and forth. There are muffled screams of pokemon and humans.
You find yourself in a small room, with water rushing in. You call for you parents, or anyone for that matter. No one answers. There is a small opening in the side of the boat. You manage to squeeze out into the freezing water of the North Kanto sea. Swimming for your life, you become exhausted. You decide to stop and tread water. Floating in the water is something you'd never expect to see -- a necklace. It's expensive, and made of fine Opal. It belonged to your mother. Without hesitation, you grab the necklace. It's all you have left of her.
Out of nowhere, a generous pokemon comes to the rescue. A confused (whatever starter you pick) looks at you. It senses that you need help and swims you to shore. As it swims, you can hear the boat sinking still. You think about what you could have done to save your parents. But in the end, you don't look back to watch it burn.
This is a very very very brief summary of the storyline. If anyone wants to help me with this hack, feelfree to message me!
pretty dark for a Pokemon game. And would a stone necklace float. you can have whatever Pokemon rescues you happen to be holding it or something. I can't really say much more. there's nothing of the plot once the game actually starts. Does the burning ship have something to do with an evil plot, a legendary pokemon, a seasick captain? I'd need to hear more before i can really help

Sniper update for Team Fortress 2 coming soon
Valve has announced that another free weekend of gameplay is coming up for Team Fortress 2, and alongside of that, it also announced more updates for the Sniper class.
This ranged class is armed with a hunting bow complete with 18 arrows and a one-second charge for full power shots, all the better to make your enemies look like a porcupine.
According to the site: "You will shoot them and they will stick to the wall and they will die." Nice.
One headshot from these bowmen can result in an instant critical, and updates include achievements, head-slot items, maps, and three unlockable weapons.
Expect the update to arrive "soon".

Saints Row
If games are a reflection of modern society, then it would appear that a lot of us would like to: a) kill people and b) drive fast cars. Games that combine the two, as well as a healthy dollop of prostitution, drugs and general criminal mischief; are a dead cert to do well in the charts.
So far though, next-gen console gamers have been denied that most delightful of gaming recipes, a true crime-em-up. That is all about to change, now that
Saints Row
has arrived.
I spent the last week working my way through this massive game, with one question burned into my mind – is this game better than GTA? The answer, as you will come to see, is that the question could probably be better worded to: is this game meant to
Either way it's nowhere near as poor as many feared, in fact, despite it being a bare faced "I-don't-care-who-knows-it" imitation, it is actually quite fun.
Make a gangsta'
The game begins with an Oblivion-like character creation scene; you get to choose everything from your characters ethnicity to the size of his forehead. I settled on an overweight white guy, with a luminous yellow afro and a
styled facial hair tuft. Happy with how scary my gangster looked I jumped into the game's first cut scene, in which all of the gangs are introduced doing what they most like (shooting one another), before you get saved and press-ganged into joining The Saints. They wear purple clothes and are lead by a guy who likes to swear a lot and looks and sounds remarkably like Samuel L. Jackson.
The first thing that really strikes you about the game is how similar it looks to GTA. The interface is almost identical, with a little circular map in the bottom left corner of the screen letting you know exactly where you are and where you need to go. Movement feels the same and you can run, jump, punch and kick your way around the streets. It's easy to jack a car (you don't need one straight away but what the hell, it's fun), and navigate to your first mission – an initiation with your new found purple clothed friends. You soon discover a war on the streets is erupting, and you've been bowled into it.
The game includes four gangs, The Saints – your own gang who remain fairly run of the mill bad guys; Los Carnales – a Mexican gang with South American drug ties; the Vice Kings – black gangsters who fulfil the stereotype of loving a bit of Hip Hop; and the Westside Rollerz – a gang who like fast cars. Each gang occupies a section of the map, with the ultimate aim being to wrestle control of all the territories from all your rivals, along with all their criminal assets.
Different from GTA?
And what a group of assets! The criminals in Stillwater (the fictional city you inhabit) are remarkably similar to the criminals in the GTA series, offering a wide range of missions including intimidation, spying, murdering, destroying and delivering stolen goods. The way each mission is introduced is identical to GTA, a short cutscene involving a character offering a job which you then go out and perform. Most missions reminded me of my previous GTA experiences, in a slightly inferior kind of way. That didn't mean they weren't enjoyable, but that the unique edge GTA offers just wasn't there, taking the gleam off.
One mission that did buck the trend was insurance fraud – a great task that isn't actually part of the main storyline. A crooked Doctor asks you to get into accidents to try and make money out of insurance companies. With great use of the Havok physics engine, you run around jumping in front of cars and from heights. You have infinite health in these sections which means there is no limit to the devastation. The bigger the 'accident' the higher the payoff, and so ensues riotous fun. Waiting on the highway for a police car to scream along before jumping face first into the windscreen and being thrown hundreds of feet into the opposite carriage way to only get knocked the other way. The combos add up giving you a cash bonus – it's a really basic idea that provides lots of fun.
One of the (few) other areas that distinguishes this game from GTA is the implementation of multiplayer. The game offers a limited co-operative mode which isn't really much fun, as well as a few varied online competitive options. Those are: Gangsta Brawl, a simplistic death match; Big-Ass Chains – a kind of capture the flag style game with chains instead of flags; Protect that Pimp, a team based game almost identical to the VIP mode of play in Counter-strike (replacing the VIP for a pimp); and finally Blinged Out Ride – a complicated game that requires you to upgrade your car by eliminating rival gang members faster than your opponents.
Killing online
When I pick up my 360 controller for some multiplayer action, I don't particularly like too much sophistication. I got a bit confused by the action in Blinged Out Ride and preferred the familiar style to Protect that Pimp. The important information is that the multiplayer has been done well, this hasn't been just pasted on with little thought, and it has been well crafted and designed and does work well. I had a few problems with graphical and network lag whilst playing, which did make the experience less enjoyable – but on the whole multiplayer will be an area Rockstar will look to emulate and improve upon in GTA IV.
As I have already said, the game is based on the
Havok engine
. This really is a great addition to the game, making people spiral in brilliant ragdoll arcs as you slam into them. It means that when objects interact, they do so with a satisfying realism. The physics engine has been made a bit unrealistic too, so smashes and explosions are welcomingly over the top. As fun as mowing down pedestrians can be, I was slightly disturbed by their willingness to jump in the way of my speeding automobile. Perhaps this is the work of an over-zealous developer, wanting to show off the physics engine a bit too much?

I have three children 5, 3, and 8 months. I have not vaccinated any of them and they have never taken antibiotics. I am looking for advice.
My 5 year old started coughing and had a low grade fever on Sept 22nd. She had a loss of appetite and coughing fits that ended in vomiting. The cough lasted 3 weeks.
Fast forward to this past friday, my 3 year old developed a low grade fever and a cough. I too had a cough and post nasal drip. Her fever went away but came back on Monday and she still had a low grade temp this morning. Last night she had one just one coughing fit that ended in the characteristic "whoop" you hear when you listen to the pertussis sound bites.
I started worrying since we do not vaccinate that maybe that was what my 5 year old had and what if my 8 month old gets it. I took her to the peds today and they did the nasal culture and the faster test. The faster test should be back friday and the culture should take two weeks.
The MD started her on zithromax (a five day course she only takes it once a day). I am waiting to get it from pharmacy.
Since I don't vaccinate and try to treat things naturally I am a little worried about antibiotics. I'd love to hear from those of you that have had kids on this any advice or reassuring words would be great!
