Digusting and costly dumping
Post-Christmas rubbish dumping at the Salvation Army has shocked the organisation.JENNA BISHOP January 29, 2014 4:22am
Ripped and soiled mattresses, broken furniture and dilapidated couches litter the donations area at the Salvation Army Hall on Victoria St.
The Salvation Army has been inundated with donations in the post-Christmas period, with many items unusable or broken.
Salvation Army Captain Judith Brown, who recently started at the Seymour division, said the rubbish that had been dumped was disgusting.
''It breaks my heart to see it all,'' Capt Brown said.
''We won't be able to sell some of this and it costs us money to get rid of it.
''We then can't use the money for the things it's earmarked for, such as welfare.''
She said electrical items such as washing machines and televisions could not be accepted by the Salvation Army, and would have to be taken to the tip.
She said people had also dumped broken crockery and toys, bike parts, damaged furniture and other items which could not be sold in the shop.
''If you wouldn't use it yourself, you shouldn't expect someone else to,'' Capt Brown said.
Capt Brown said people stealing and rifling through the bins had also become a big problem, which was disappointing for the organisation.
She said the Salvation Army would be cracking down on stealing out of respect for those who do the right thing.
''We need to respect that fact that some people have come in and given us donations and then someone comes in and steals it,'' she said.
Salvation Army volunteers will continue to sort through the dumped items and hope to reopen the store after a clean-up in the next couple of weeks.

Pittsburgh Press:
FEAR PICKETT HAS MET WITH FOUL PLAYI'm not sure where he was, but Pickett was fine. He lived another 58 years.
Pittsburgh Gazette Times:
In one of the early innings Third Baseman Herzog ran right up to the stand back of third base and caught a foul fly from a Pirate bat. Later in the game Mr. B. Byrne hiked directly to the same spot, snizzled a foul, and, turning to Herzog, quietly remarked: "Charles, I fail to see wherein you have anything on me."Oh snap!
Ambrose McConnell, of the White Sox, has a queer hobby.3. BDC Posted: August 05, 2011 at 12:50 PM (#3893272)
Not that there's anything wrong with that.
Rangers totals for the "lights-out" deadline duo: 4 1/3 IP, 2 HR, 2 ER, 4.15 ERA, 0-1, and two "holds" in a Rangers win yesterday. OK, so maybe they're coming around :)4. Der Komminsk-sar Posted: August 05, 2011 at 01:58 PM (#3893298)
On the dark side, Texas comes home to face 110-degree heat and Ubaldo Jimenez. The Angels have proven incapable of losing a game, and they throw Jered F. Weaver at Seattle tonight. I need blood-pressure meds.
He picks up pins of every description, never passing one by without stopping to gather it in. Amby has a theory that every pin picked up means a base hit for him…His specialty is hairpins.5. Edmundo got dem ol' Kozma blues again mama Posted: August 05, 2011 at 02:03 PM (#3893302)
If he picks all of them up, how does he have a specialty; are they drawn to him?

Funny you should mention that game, because it's the subject of a historical piece at THT Live: 10 year anniversary of baseball's greatest comeback. It then lists a series of other baseball anniversaries and day-versaries.
And there's another item up I personally had a lot more fun putting together: Matt Stairs career highlights about the recenty retired man who played for everyone. It's most impressive games, most notable games, and some oddities he was on hand for. For example, I never knew he played in two games featuring an unassisted triple play, but son of a gun - he did. I dunno what others think of these "career highlights" pieces I sometimes do, but I certainly have a lotta fun putting them together.
Mike Napoli is on some kind of tear, right now.9. puck Posted: August 06, 2011 at 04:54 PM (#3894264)
Since July 1st, he's hitting .431/.488/.833 in 80 plate appearances.
Last night Rockies pitcher Juan Nicasio was hit, apparently on the side of the head, by a hard liner off the bat of Ian Desmond and was carried off the field. Nicasio is having surgery for a broken C-1 vertebrae.
While laying on the mound he reported numbness in his extremities but could be seen waving his fingers. So I hope that's a sign the risk of paralysis and the like is low.

"The New York Yankees finished off their domination of the Boston Red Sox and took their biggest lead in the AL East this season...The Red Sox hadn't been swept in a five-game series since the Cleveland Indians did it in 1954. The Yankees also swept Boston in five games at Fenway in '43."
Boston fans seemed pissed.

Philips SHE3595WT/28 In-Ear Headset with Mic White
"I have previously given a positive review for the Philips SHE3590, a cheap IEM that sounds good. I purchased the Philips SHE3595 because it looks like the SHE3590, has a microphone and it was cheap at Dick Smith's closing down sale (a major Australian retailer). While they look similar, the SHE3595 has a rounded protrusion and doesn't fit so well as the oval protrusion on the..." --stweb
Philips Fidelio S2
"As list in the summary, I don't like this product, and I will not buy any product from Philips because of the post-sale service. After I tried replacing all of the ear-pieces in the box, I finally confirm that the sound quality of S2 is bad. First of all, I could not hear any bass instrument in most of music.

Edoc Systems Group Ltd., a software company for the marine and forestry industries, is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year.
"We see this as a great chance to thank our customers first and foremost. The original three customers that helped get this company going in the beginning are still with us today – we truly appreciate the loyalty and we're looking forward to partnering with them for another 10 years," said Ron deBruyne, President of Edoc.
Edoc had humble beginnings working on makeshift desks in the back office of a tug company. Thinking back to those early days deBruyne said, "That environment gave us the first important lesson – listen to your customers to find the true problem they want solved. We've managed to translate our customers' needs into software functionality quite well over the years and I believe that's one our keys to success."

Viega was founded in Germany in 1899. By 1901, the company began to manufacture home plumbing products, growing and expanding internationally. In 1999,

Harsens Island Michigan Golf Courses
|Mid-Channel Golf Course
Featured Golf Course Review:
|Mid-Channel Golf Course -- Great full size starter course!
|Review by: Jim Thomas
|I have played here many times but I especially appreciated this course for a few reasons. First, There are no difficult lies, since it is located on an Harsens Island (South of Algonac- $6 dollar ferry fee), the landscape is rather flat which brings me to my second reason for rating it higher than normal. I have 3 teenage boys who are just starting to play. We already had played many executive courses but need somewhere for them to get the feel for a full size course. This is it! The rough is unforgiving, but only 1/2 of the holes are bordered by woods, so if you have a bad slice either compensate or bring many shag balls. However the other fairways are very expansive and open. There are a good number of challenging shots which also makes the lack of terrain OK. Some of the greens are nestled within the woods, where there is only one alley in and one alley out, very interesting. My last reason is that the course generally has a moderate amount of traffic which is also very helpful when you have juniors that need to develop ' ready to play golf ' skills. I have yet to find someone pushing at our back, wondering when you are going to get one in the head, and since it is a full size course with challenges, I have never been on the heels of anyone. If there is any critique, I would say that the bunkers are not in the best shape, but we use rule 28 for that. Afterwards there is a quaint supper club that is casual and affordable.

Golf Courses: Additional Golf Course Reviews:
|Carleton Glen Golf Club -- A true test of golf...
|Review by: Balbsy
|Carleton Glen is a bit of an anomaly for SE MI golf; this is not your typical back and forth, always straight from tee to green style daily fee golf course. It instead offers long par fours, doglegs (both right and left), par fives with definite risk-reward second shots, and par threes that make you think twice about club selection. Tree-lined fairways, water, sand and long rough await the golfer. Also, the back tees really do reshape the course and how you approach it. I was hesitant to give this course any publicity as it is always easy for me to get on (they usually don't take a tee time during the week). Never crowded, I liked the fact I can pull up, pay for golf, and proceed to the tee without delay. I am in SE Mi quite a bit, and I prefer playing "the Glen" because of this and all the other reasons previously stated. But Carleton Glen has always done me well, and as such I feel the need to return the favor by telling everyone it is a course anyone who loves and respects the game will enjoy.

Curious, no, greedy by the raving reviews and luscious photographs I found elsewhere on the web --my appetite had been woken but I thought I yet needed more research-- I went and bought this book. Somebody even warned in the reviews that it was mainly a travel book; but hey, I love and admire the work of Jeffrey Alford as well. Who doesn't want some travels with the cooking, after all; is there an art more ethnic that has travelled to so many different homes?
Upon receiving it I would not look my disappointment in the eyes; I really did need a new book on chinese cookery, and this was supposed to be it. To be clear: I own the book on Sichuan food, Sichuan Cookery, by Fuchsia Dunlop, which is priceless, a treasure on my shelf, but it stays in Sichuan; I own her Revolutionary Chinese Cookbook, The Revolutionary Chinese Cookbook, but that stays in Hunan; I own Ken Hom's journey through his homeland, The Taste of China; but where is the book that embraces simple things, street snacks, noodle dishes, from Han mainland, and still manages to enhance my knowledge of the culture from which I'm cooking?!?
This was not going to be that book. It is vast, and the journey Kylie made is impressive.Read more ›
A lot of the dishes are likely to end up tasting the same, I think. They lack subtlety and fragrance.
Sorry Kylie - I think you can do better.

Rebounding house prices are helping UK economy and property market is NOT overheating, says Bank of England economist
The rebounding housing market is helping the economic recovery and is not overheating, according to Bank of England chief economist Spencer Dale.
'What we have seen in the housing market is one which has moved from dormant to one which is functioning more like a normal market, which I think has been good for our recovery,' said Dale in a Bloomberg interview.
His comments came as Bank colleague David Miles suggested savers and borrowers would have to get used to interest rates below their long-term average - at a 'new normal' level - for a sustained period.
Recovery: Bank is fully alert to risk of housing market overheating, says chief economist Spencer Dale
Dale told Bloomberg he didn't think house prices, sales and mortgage lending had risen to levels that pose a risk of overheating.
He said transactions were still well below normal, but added: 'Any of us who have lived through any sort of economic history will know you can go from a healthy housing market to an overheating housing market very quickly, and so our job is to worry about those types of things and be alert to it.
'We are fully alert to that risk and we are worrying about it. But I do not think those risks are materialising at the moment.'
Dale said the pick-up in transactions would support demand by spurring home building and construction, as well as purchases to furnish homes.
He suggested that following the creation of the Bank's financial policy committee (the FPC) last April, rate-setters on the monetary policy committee were free to stick with a 0.5 per cent official rate for longer while the new panel used other tools to tackle risks to financial stability.
If housing overheats, 'the onus on us to do something about it is less now. Quite rightly the initial onus would be on the FPC. They are the first line of defence,' he told Bloomberg.
Miles, a member of the MPC, echoed the 'lower for longer' message on interest rates in a speech in London.
Lower for longer: Bank of England men Spencer Dale, right, and David Miles, left, talk about interest rates
The financial crisis has transformed the way people view risk so much that interest rates were likely to be below their historical average for 'a sustained period', he said.
Miles said the 'new normal' for rates was likely to reflect how households, firms and investors attach a higher probability to financial crises and economic downturns than in the past.
'The new normal for monetary policy will probably involve setting bank rates on average at a lower level than before the crisis.
'One factor behind the recent sharp fall in real yields - changing perceptions of the level of risk in the world - is likely to be persistent.'
The Bank has linked its record-low interest rates to the amount of spare capacity in the economy, and policymakers have stressed the economy will not be weaned off the stimulus of ultra-low borrowing costs quickly.
Despite a recent resurgence, Britain's economy is still 1.4 per cent smaller than its pre-financial crisis peak in 2008 - a worse situation than almost all other big advanced economies.
Miles said short-term factors, like the Government's drive to cut the budget deficit and weak eurozone growth, were also reasons rates were unlikely to return to their pre-crisis average.
But the fundamental change in perceptions of risk would have a lasting effect, Miles said.
'I am not arguing that the neutral level of policy rate will never be 5 per cent again, but I think that for a sustained period there are reasons to think that it might be lower than that.'
Rate watch: Bank has linked its record-low interest rates to the amount of spare capacity in the economy
The experience of events like the financial crisis - once thought nearly inconceivable - has made low-risk assets more attractive, driving down the real risk-free interest rate, Miles said.
That in turn should help to reduce the Bank's neutral level of its interest rate - one that would reflect inflation a little under the Bank's 2 per cent target and at which slack in the economy would be small.
In a newspaper interview yesterday, Miles also said the greater difference between mortgage rates and the Bank rate would also keep a lid on the central bank's official lending rates.
And he added that if and when the time came for the Bank to start selling its £375billion of government bonds, accumulated through its quantitative easing stimulus programme, that would probably not have a big effect on the Bank's neutral policy rate.
He cited research that suggested central banks would be able to unwind their vast bond purchases when market conditions were more normal without a big impact on asset prices and the real economy.
'The bottom line is that I believe the neutral level of bank rate is likely to be quite insensitive to decisions on when to sell government bonds,' he said.
British consumer confidence has held steady this month after hitting a six-year high in January, a survey from researchers GfK revealed.
headline consumer confidence index stayed at -7, which was jointly with
January the best reading since September 2007, around the start of the
financial crisis.
the substantial six point rise in the index last month, holding steady,
rather than any form of correction, is good news,' said Nick Moon,

Happy FE Femslash Week, everyone!! I plan on putting out a bunch of content this week, almost all of which is my own writing. Get ready for tons and tons of gay!
and severa
For Day 1, Armor, here's a full C-S Support between Selena and Azura! I wrote this myself. The take on "armor" in this isn't literal but more about the emotional armor both of them have built up throughout their lives.
and how that makes them gay as hell for each other
The song Azura is singing in the B Support is a translated version of the Japanese (Hoshidan here ;p ) sea shanty "Sōran Bushi," which I thought fit her for multiple reasons. The words "yaren" and "soran" don't have direct English translations so they're just left as is, which is how other Japanese words without direct translations are dealt with in vanilla supports.
This convo will be available in a future update of my gay Fates hack! You can watch a video directly below or read the full thing under the "Keep Reading!"

Based on John Steinbeck's novel and set to premiere next weekend at Venice Film Festival, the story follows Wolff as Jim Nolan, a young recruit who joins activist Mac McLeod to organize a group of California fruit-pickers oppressed by a ruthless tycoon. The drama chronicles their infiltration of the workers' world, the ensuing strike, and how they both help and complicate the situation — and at what cost.

Kofax® Limited (NASDAQ: KFX)(LSE: KFX), a leading provider of smart process applications for the business critical First Mile™ of customer interactions, today announced that Kapow was named Best in Show by attendees at the bpmNEXT 2014 conference recently held in Pacific Grove, CA.
Kapow Chief Technology Officer and Founder Stefan Andreasen's presentation entitled "Automation of Manual Business Processes with Synthetic APIs" focused on real world problems that businesses are trying to solve within business process management (BPM) solutions. He emphasized that as processes become more web centric, Kapow Enterprise, an agile data integration platform that enables organizations to extract and act on critical information from disparate sources, is helping hundreds of companies automate thousands of manual processes without dependency on application programming interfaces (APIs). This includes the automation of B2B processes on web portals, supply chains, the aggregation of information from legacy systems, front-office documents, monitoring web resources for competitive intelligence and automating the migration and transformation of content into new content management systems and archives.
"Innovation around big data, cloud, event-driven analytics, case management, mobility and social media are fueling BPM innovation to a degree we haven't seen in years and the Kapow offering from Kofax is a perfect example," said Bruce Silver, a longtime independent BPM industry analyst. Bruce Silver, in partnership with Nathaniel Palmer, who is founding Editor of BPM.com, co-created bpmNEXT to showcase the best next-generation BPM innovations.
"Today's enterprises are being squeezed by competitive pressures and rising customer expectations, which has led to a demand for faster, better, more agile solutions," said Grant Johnson, Chief Marketing Officer at Kofax. "Attendees of bpmNEXT recognize that Kapow liberates users from a range of manual processes and redundant tasks while improving the efficiency, accuracy and speed of data capture and delivery to key decision points and decision makers."

A burnt-out star is called a white dwarf. A white dwarf results after a star's nuclear fuel burns out, which causes it to collapse or implode. While it has a mass similar to that of the sun, its radius is similar to that of the Earth.Continue Reading
Studies by astronomers at the University of California, Los Angeles and University of Kiel, Germany, led to the conclusion that the formation of a white dwarf takes billions of years and progresses through a "red giant" phase. Further degeneration of the red giant leads to the death of the star, transforming it into a white dwarf.Learn more about Astronomy
A low-mass star, like the sun, is a star that was created by the gravitational collapse of large molecular clouds. The collapse of these clouds causes the matter to be pulled through a disk-like center, which eventually forms into what is called a protostar.Full Answer >
Scientists will never know the farthest star from Earth, as the star is so far away that its light has not, nor will ever, have enough time to reach Earth. Even the stars within the visible universe are far too numerous to count, but the farthest one that humans have ever detected is about 55 million light years away. This incredibly distant star is called SDSS J 122952.66 +112227.8.Full Answer >
When the temperature of a protostar rises higher than 10,000,000 K, it becomes a true star. At this temperature, hydrogen fusion begins to happen. Fusion heats the star, contracts the core and causes the star to emit light. A protostar must have 0.08 solar masses to become a star.Full Answer >
A star becomes a red giant when its internal fuel supply of hydrogen starts to deplete, causing its core to collapse. Hydrogen continues to burn in its expanding outer layers at a cooler temperature, giving it a red color compared to other stars.Full Answer >

Trust is terribly old-fashioned.
The church is rotten, parliament is a black farce, the media is choking, job security is an oxymoron, the military is mired in scandal and marriage is unavailable to some who want it and abused by most who have it.
So we turn to sport for its purity, and find idols dependent on drugs, a mutating gambling virus, craven administrators and athletes swapping clubs - and even codes - for coin. It's little wonder self-interest has flourished, given the pillars of society are plainly made of salt.
The cultural sphere, too, has lost some sheen. There was a time when a band allowing its music to represent a product was the height of artistic abasement. Similarly, Hollywood stars were so reluctant to be seen commodifying their fame that they would hide their ad campaigns in Japan, like a mistress.
That level of caution has become futile and unnecessary. Media careers are difficult to sustain and monetise in a culture of free downloads, and the public mostly accepts commercial arrangements as a natural component of celebrity. In the modern era, selling out is a buyers' market.
With relaxed attitudes towards leasing one's image, it takes a special effort to appear unseemly. Toni Collette raised eyebrows when she read corporate poetry for a bank, and Simon Baker got meta for money when he played his American TV character reading the minds of random Australians to give them financial advice.
More recently, Tina Fey extolled the virtues of home hair colouring (''Avocado, olive and shea - it's actually nourishing while it colours!''), which doesn't quite square with her cheeky iconoclasm. While these ads might feel incongruous or uncomfortable, they don't necessarily alienate fans or constitute a clear abrogation of ethics. Step up Joel and Benji Madden.
Compunction is a trait you only notice when a person has none, and the twins from Good Charlotte have shown themselves to be in short supply with their decision to provide their clout to KFC.
Co-founders of a pop-punk outfit are free to confer their reputations upon any fast-food multinational they desire, but the frontmen for fried chicken bring baggage to the transaction with their inconvenient history of vegetarianism and support for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (Peta).
Good Charlotte have appeared at Peta award shows; they recorded a special version of Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous for a Peta compilation CD; Joel was nominated for the title of world's sexiest vegetarian by Peta and helped create vegetarian and vegan burritos for Denny's restaurants; band members joined some of Peta's 12,000 protests urging diners to boycott, drum roll ... KFC. Oh, and Benji once said, ''Animal rights is something God put in my heart''. Well, I suppose what the Lord giveth, the Lord taketh away. Joel rejects ever being a vegetarian or activist, but forgot to disavow the misconception when it worked for him. I guess a fluctuating iron intake will do that.
The advertisement features the rockers working behind a KFC drive-through window. As is the trend with celebrity endorsements, it's not enough to merely lend a face - you must also surrender your skills and perhaps a part of your self.
The brothers will use images and comments uploaded by KFC eaters as ''inspiration'' to write a song about Australia, which they will premiere during the change of innings at a Twenty20 cricket match. Would you like dignity with that?
Also at KFC, Jimmy Barnes joined the Good Charlotte brothers at the Good Times campaign launch to sing Good Times by the Easybeats. Not good ... but not as bad as the famously recovering alcoholic doing ads set in a bar for Wild Turkey.
At least the Madden boys had principles to begin with. Kim Kardashian, who somehow continues to subdivide her $oul, recently tweeted, ''I'm in love with the Kingdom of Bahrain'' while in the Middle East flogging milkshakes. As payment for her ignorance, the foreign minister of the repressive regime thanked her with an online smiley face. The relationship with the Islamic republic is so cosy she's in negotiations to film her next sex tape there.
When a performer sells out, it's dispiriting for fans because we are the ones who are supposed to do things we don't want to do for money. Selling out makes celebrities less than mortal; they become something like a fallen angel. The more we learn, the only principle we can count on is scepticism. It'd be nice occasionally to see the emperor wear clothes - provided he doesn't do an ad for them.

President's tough stand on Pakistan is correct: Home Minister
New Delhi: Union Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde on Friday said that President Pranab Mukherjee`s statement on Pakistan in Brussels is correct, but asserted that both South Asian neighbours need to maintain good relations.
"I think the President is correct, but as far as possible, we are talking to Pakistan because, they are our neighbours, we have to maintain relations. Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has also had sideline talks at the United Nations and they held good talks. I haven`t seen the President`s statement as yet. He has spoken on behalf of the country," he told media here today.
Asserting that state-sponsored terrorism from across the border cannot be accepted, President Pranab Mukherjee has said India wants peace with Pakistan, but there can be no compromise with its own territorial integrity.
"Terrorist activities must be curbed. And, state-sponsored terrorism can never be accepted. Therefore, repeatedly, we are saying, please dismantle the terrorist outfits which are located in your area," he said in an interview to Euronews.
President Mukherjee, who is presently on an official visit to Belgium, said non-state actors who perpetrate terrorism was a word used by Pakistan.
"It may not be. But non-state actors, that is the phrase they used, then I responded by saying that non-state actors are not coming from heaven. Non-state actors are coming from territory under your control," said President Mukherjee.
"And not now, in 2004 Pakistan agreed that their territories will not be allowed to be used by forces inimical to India," he added, when he was asked to comment that India says that this is state-sponsored terrorism and Pakistan says it is not state-sponsored terrorism.
President Mukherjee said India wants peace with its neighbours, and stressed that no nation can, however, compromise on its territorial integrity.
