Ok, so I can see both sides of this. The thing is, I think we ought to sit in the middle somewhere.Its ok to still speak your language, support your country, be proud of your nationality and live abroad. But you should definetly learn the local language too, get involved with their culture. Its a hard thing to manage, I know, but if you choose to move to a new country, make an effort to support that country. But don't feel like you have to abandon your culture. You don't. Just accept that where you live now isn't your home country. It is different. Embrace that. Accept it. Everywhere would be somuch better.

You're taking the piss tbh. Our drinking culture is notorious and even if other countries drank more it doesn't make it any less of a problem. One of the saddest sights I see is when I'm in the supermarket and the amount of alcohol people buy, it depresses me. And yes I am miserable about it, I see it controlling many people's lives, and killing people close to me, yet people play it down and tell me I'm a killjoy or a spoilsport? Alcohol is a hard drug, yet we get a pass to abuse it. Post on Facebook about waking up in your own vomit after a party where you injected heroin and people will think you have serious problems. Do the same but from alcohol and you'll probably get about 10 people click 'like' and call you a legend for it.
Scroll through your Facebook news feed and look at the amount of mavericks who post about how "messy" they got last night.
Abusing alcohol is glorified and actually encouraged here amongst the majority of young people. Older people don't glorify it as much but that's probably down to them being alcoholics by then.

It's worth a try, but in my experience left-wingers are utterly incapable of reflecting on their own actions and beliefs; any attempt to point out their hypocrisy will be met with confusion and denial.
The left has its head so far up its arse that it won't even allow for the possibility that other people have a valid reason for opposing it. Save your breath for more open-minded folk.

I don't mind EU migrants, the more EU migrants the less non-white third world migrants.
Funny how people always seems to mix up English with British and use both synonymously as if they are one of the same word.
I'm a British Citizen and live in England even born here! Yet I'm not English by heritage.......
Edit: But they are not the same words, remain ignorant if you want!

I find this really offensive. How dare you say that England doesn't have a culture! ....We have country fairs with food competitions, fish and chips on the beach followed by a Mr Whippy. Watching Made in Chelsea, The Only Way of Essex, Desperate Scousewives.

You should read the whole thread before commenting, and no one has a problem knowing multiple languages but only talking in a foreign language is plain rude and there is a massive problem of people who speak NO english here - all of which you gloss over.

Curries were invented in Britain by someone whos family came from India but considered himself completely British and invented a new food to display this. At least do some research before ranting inanely.
(Original post by mabrookes)
No one would resent occasionally talking in person or on the phone in any language, especially if the person on the other end of the phone was in another country. But the fact you think this is an equivalent to the problems we are actually facing at the moment is laughable.

contribution is about as helpful as a ranting BNP racist, the ranting BNP racist would at least probably believe they were doing the right thing rather than this blatantly petty and unhelpful attack.
I agree somewhat. What's the point of coming to England long-term and working here if you don't even bother to learn to speak the language. It doesn't matter if your pronunciation is horrible, if you can be understood in a normal conversation then you're fine.

Wow so you posted as anonymous on relationships to post on what is really a non-relationship topic i.e. your intolerance to non-English speaking cultures. If you are against people who are bilingual, or those who prefer to speak their natural tongue a language they are comfortable with, then why don't you date a white English girl? You'll have no English problems then. If you choose to date someone from a diverse background then you should try to accept their language as well. Why should your gf know English and you not know her language?
There are English people living in countries such as India, Ghana etc for many decades and they don't learn the local tongue. I don't hear of mass debate against them. What about the English who lived in Pakistan and India for 200 years. They did not integrate, accept local customs, speak the local language. Asians have been here 50 years and yet you can't cope with them wanting to retain their identity. Have you ever thought about how your ancestors imposed their foreign traditions and will on them and how many cultures you displaced? How treasures and valuables like Kohinoor were stolen from those lands?
btw i live in Aus so you can't say you're going to deport me cos im not being English enough. What about food? If you only want English everything then you should not eat asian foods like vindaloo or chicken tikka etc. They are not English foods. Doesn't that mean you should only stick to SHepherd's pie or bread and butter or people in asian countries should not like to eat pastries etc.
If your gf doesn't push your culture at you then don't worry. Just run away and have your relationship with her. Tell her to cut relationship with her parents if she doesn't want to deal with their imposing ways or even compromise. She should also not accept excess help or monetary support from her parents if she wants to reject everything about them.
I actually believe the vocal anti-immigrant lot on tsr is a minority. My friend who is indian is dating a white girl. Both families like each other and both make attempts to learn each other's culture. My friend's gf wants to learn his language and get more involved. Even attempting to do that is praiseworthy.
If you don't want to attempt to learn a new culture then shouldn't you date within a culturally homogenous group such as yourself. I have Chinese friends who speak Mandarin on the phone. I don't understand but i don't resent it.
This is not to say people shouldn't speak English they should but they shouldn't forget their own heritage. Why you pick on Indians or Ghanians is beyond me. What about Irish, or Scottish people proud of their non-ENglish background. What about English people living in Aus for past 20 years and still waving the English flags and supporting the English team. If they love England so much they should move back, why come here. Same for Australians who support Australia but live in England.
Why prejudice against ethnic minorities who are not white and want to retain their cultural heritage? That smacks of racism.
You live in Australia you should bloody support Aus then mate. That's what you would think but i think they should support who they identify with as long as they contribute to the country of residence. Besides, coming to a country at age 50-60 and having responsibility to take care of grandchildren as many asian grandparents who come here do, often means they don't have a chance to fully learn english. Why should they at that age? They don't work here and the fact they act as role of carer, allowing their children to work, means they contribute to society
Totally agree with you. All cultures have their good and bad points , i am foriegn and i do speak fluent english , but thats not really the OPs problem is it? , they want all ppl to integrate into this culture , while i like some parts of this culture like people being so polite (even if it is only publicly ) , and the amount of support given by everyone to everyone , so many nice charities , and yes England is very well developed no matter how the economy But as i am a teenager , i can quite clearly see the major crisis within this culture , AND NO just to integrate i am not going to start drinking , smoking and taking drugs , and socializing in parties to just get into every girls pants and start shunning away my parents , just cause i am too old for them now. No im sorry , but i am way too above these like petty things.
But i do agree , all these things may be a common norm here (it is WRONG) , but it doesnt apply to everyone here , thankfully all my friends from England are not like this , so to be honest , this should not be a culture debate , instead we should feel sorry for these certain type of immature individuals , and hope they GET WELL SOON.
PS can someone tell me why Alcohol is sooooo over rated, even after excessive intake is bad for health. I mean have you ever tried milkshakes and fruit juices????

I think English is appropriate here, actually. This seems to be fairly restricted to England - in Wales we speak Welsh, at least in the north we do, and yet we don't go to England for a week and demand they speak our language and make our food and live by our culture - and yet, if you look at the English on holiday in places like France or Spain, I've seen people demand that they stop speaking Spanish so that they can understand. No, you learn some of the language (enough to get by) before you go!
I used to work on a holiday site popular with English tourists from the Midlands, Liverpool and Manchester mostly, and I did have a few times where people saw it fit to come up and complain about the Welsh people speaking Welsh, insisting that we should all speak English when they're around because it's rude. If I want to have a conversation with someone who I usually converse with in Welsh, and there is an English person nearby who isn't part of the conversation whatsoever, why should I change to please him?
I'm not expecting them to learn to speak Welsh, because that's just as bad as the OP. If they do come and live here, if they do learn to speak it, that's great, but if they don't, as long as they don't insist we all change for them, it's absolutely fine. I've never seen a Welsh person get as millitant about immigrants and their integration or lack of it as the English do.

Curries were INTRODUCED to Britain. They were invented in India, and were originally made from food that was going off, and spices helped mask the fact that the food had gone off

Warp nacelle
this wiki
A Warp nacelle is an outboard structure found on warp capable vessels. Vessels with warp drive will have two or more nacelles.
Warp nacelles contain a number of field coils which create a warp field when injected with highly energetic warp plasma, or plasma created in the warp core by the reaction of deuterium and antideuterium, mediated through an assembly of dilithium crystals, which are nonreactive with antimatter when subjected to high-frequency electromagnetic fields. The warp nacelle is connected to the warp core via plasma transfer conduits, which transferred the plasma in the core to the nacelles. Because the radiation produced by a nacelle was detrimental to living beings, the nacelle was usually placed at some distance from the main structure of the vessel, and held in place with a pylon.
On Starfleet vessels, nacelles often have a Bussard ramscoop at the front of the nacelle, which gathers hydrogen for use in power generation.
Studies by the United Federation of Planets found that two nacelles were the optimum number for creating the most efficient warp field, as well as for vessel control. (Star Trek: The Next Generation Technical Manual). However the Federation has fielded vessels with only one nacelle, such as the Saladin class, or three or more nacelles. (Star Fleet Technical Manual). In an anti-time future created by Q, the USS Enterprise-D was equipped with a third nacelle. (TNG episode: "All Good Things...")

Jack Chick Fans Hijack Domains Relating to Olivia Munn, Robert Pattinson, 'Terminator'
After winning the Canadian "Queer Idol" singing competition, performer Stacey Tennen decided to build a website to promote her music — only to find that the Staceytennen.com domain had been claimed by someone else several weeks after her win, and now redirects to a site full of anti-gay religious tracts by Jack Chick that literally demonize homosexuals.
One strip titled "The Gay Blade" depicts gays as living in "Satan's shadowy world of homosexuality," claims that "demonic power controls them" and laments that they now live openly in society and "no longer try to hide their identity."
Nor is Tennen alone — a search using an e-mail from the Staceytennen.com site revealed numerous domains based on misspellings of celebrity names that redirect to sites with thematically related Chick tracts.
A few involve vampire properties, like RobertPatinson.com (based on a minor misspelling of "Twilight" actor Robert Pattinson's name) and PaulWesly.com ("Vampire Diaries" star Paul Wesley). Both sites redirect to Jack Chick strips that focus on the evils of the occult, like the oft-mocked anti-D&D tract "Dark Dungeons."
Other sites include OliviaMun.com, which seems to comment on G4 host Olivia Munn by linking to a tract called "Party Girl," TerminatorSalvatoin.com (based on the "Terminator Salvation" film), which mystifyingly tries to trade of the imaginary popularity of the summer flop, and several more.

SACRAMENTO - Rudy Giuliani did not visit Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger on Thursday, even though he was mere steps from the state Capitol and held a fundraiser in the governor's Sacramento hotel home.
No matter. The former New York City mayor and Republican presidential candidate made do with a downtown lunchtime mix of high school girls, legislative aides, ladies meeting for lunch and activists on break from college.
Giuliani swept through Ambrosia Cafe on Thursday, disturbing the usual lunch-hour murmur at the gourmet sandwich shop a block from the Capitol. He shook hands, wished patrons a "good Fourth of July" and scarfed down part of a salad before diving into a scrum of television cameras.
Some diners praised Giuliani for his work as mayor after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, even if they were less acquainted with his political positions.
"I don't want them just to look at Sept. 11," Giuliani said. "I want them to look at my entire record as mayor, taking a city that was the crime capital of America and turning it into the safest large community in America."
Even if Giuliani did not meet with Schwarzenegger, the presidential candidate made sure to make reference to the popular governor, calling himself a national version of the California leader.
"I governed very much like your governor does," Giuliani said. "I got results. And now I want people to look at that and say that's the way I would govern as president of the United States.
A Public Policy Institute of California poll released Wednesday showed Giuliani with an early lead in the Republican primary, outpacing U.S. Sen. John McCain of Arizona 29 percent to 15 percent. Giuliani declared Thursday that he would be the only GOP nominee able to turn Democrat-rich California into a battleground state in next year's general election.
Denise Bernardin, 60, was finishing lunch with two friends when Giuliani came through the restaurant. Even though she is a registered Democrat, she said she was excited to meet Giuliani.
"I respect a lot of the things he's done in New York and how he handled 9/11," Bernardin said. "I know he did a lot for New York. As far as voting for him for president, I'm not sure."
As the U.S. Senate blocked an immigration reform bill Thursday, Giuliani said he supported the Senate's action. He called the bill "the typical Washington mess" and said President Bush should use his existing powers to enforce the borders.
He added that he would stop illegal immigration by relying more heavily on technology to pinpoint where people are crossing the border.
Giuliani did not commit to saying whether troops should remain in Iraq. Instead, he said the United States should be committed to building a stable government in Iraq that helps fight "Islamic terrorists."

I can happy lettuce pimp, but island dick be **** on game your face.
Don't get caught up on getting kill shots. You'll go through times when you wound 4-5 targets but see someone else beat you to the deathblow and then have other times where you land the killing blow 4-5 times.
The more powerful bows generally give you less of a window to fire accurately, while short bows gives you more time as it is less of a strain on your character's muscles. Crossbows do not suffer from this problem.
Just make sure they are in relatively close range, otherwise you could be shooting at easier targets. Unless cavalry are in very close range or their horse has run into something and has reared up you will have a hard time hitting them, as most good players will continuously zigzag their horses to make accurately targeting them nearly impossible.
Unless you have a vertical advantage over them, you'll almost never get past their shield as long as they are facing you and have their shield up. There are some tricks/opportunities to get hits in on them though, which I will discuss later on.
As such when, as a defender, your flag is threatened by the enemy you should switch your focus and target those players first before getting back to the normal routine.
For sieges the top of gatehouses are great places for archers to camp, especially archers on the attacking side, as you have view of many of the defenders' respawn points. If someone wants to come kill you, there's only one stairway for them to get to you.
The only time you should consider standing still between shots is when you are certain no other enemy player with a ranged weapon has line of sight to you.
Assuming your cover gives you multiple options to go when coming out of it, you should mix things up in order to make it harder for enemy archers to land a shot on you when you do come out.
It is useful to know that most attacks are slashes from either the right or left.
Crossbows may be a good starting point for beginners to archery.
Sweet, now to harvest some horses... At the knees.

ATHERTON -- When Ben Burr-Kirven was in eighth grade, the budding defensive standout visited the Sacred Heart Prep campus to determine if the prestigious Atherton private school was a good fit for him.
While there, Burr-Kirven approached the school's football coach, Pete Lavorato, to see if they could sit and talk about the coach's philosophy.
"I'm thinking, what a precocious eighth grader," said Lavorato, who spent a decade playing in the Canadian Football League. "I'm going, who is this little snot-nose kid talking to me about philosophy? I've been doing this for (many) years. But he understood the football concepts. He really gets it."
Three years later, Lavorato calls Burr-Kirven the best high school football player he has coached. And Saturday night, the junior linebacker who has drawn interest from Stanford, Oregon and Notre Dame, among others, will lead the Gators into the Northern California Division III regional championship bowl game against El Cerrito at De Anza High in El Sobrante.
"It's great to have a chance to go show that Sacred Heart Prep, we're legit," Burr-Kirven said.
Burr-Kirven is a force on defense, known for huge hits, quickness and a never-ending motor. Listed at 6-foot-1 and 200 pounds, he has been timed at 4.5 seconds in the 40-yard dash. "That's pretty fast," Lavorato said.
That speed coupled with Burr-Kirven's love for contact make his hits hard to miss.
"That's kind of why I play defense," Burr-Kirven said. "I love to go out and hit people. I've always had that, since I first started playing Pop Warner."
Teammate Andrew Segre called Burr-Kirven's hits "amazing," but added, "The biggest thing about him is desire. He wants it more than anyone else on the team. He works really, really hard."
Burr-Kirven said he doesn't model his style after anyone, although he acknowledged that he watches Stanford's hard-hitting linebacker Shayne Skov a lot.
"For me, I just want to play at the next level," Burr-Kirven said. "There's nothing else I'd rather do."

Tom Cleverley completes Aston Villa loan switch
Updated: Tuesday, 02 Sep 2014 21:44 | Comments
Aston Villa have completed the season-long loan signing of Tom Cleverley, the club have confirmed.
Villa made a u-turn late on Monday to sign the Manchester United midfielder on loan and had to wait until the Premier League confirmed the paperwork had been completed in time.
Villa had initially pulled the plug on a permanent deal for Cleverley earlier on transfer deadline day with the England man's wage demands pricing him out of a move.

SMEs and Business in Mainland China
Some 200 SMEs from small Finland have already established business in China. Similarly, over 300 SMEs from Sweden.
From France about 800 SMEs has entered to China. Beijing restaurants and cafes are filled with French speaking business people, students and officers.
More than 500 companies from Germany has entered to China, and much more have invested in China.
To boost their changes, Spain set up Cervantes Institute and France their Culture Center to Beijing. Italy has Culture Year in China, Russians the Year of Russia, and Indians the Year of Friendship.
Then there are 50.000 SMEs from U.S., or so many export or invested in China according to China's Ministry of Commerce. Americans have marketing superiority and they are the key transformers of Chinese lifestyle.
All Asian SMEs are, of course strong in Chinese markets. Their products are valued in China.
Scale works both directions. Embassy of India in Beijing says that they give 500-600 visas to Chinese businessmen every day.
China's own 42 million registered SMEs, almost all of them private, are learning quickly. They guarantee that fierce price competition in mainland markets is in place. Chinese SMEs have advantage of massive local workforce, especially in manufacturing, services and after-sales services. For Chinese society, SMEs with their ideas and technologies are the greatest hope for desperately needed innovations.
NEXT - SMEs
Every week tens of foreign SMEs (Small to Medium-sized Enterprises <500 employees) enter into China's fast-growing market. Welcome SMEs! But what to sell to Chinese? How to do business in Chinese environment?
MNCs, Multinational Corporations came early to Chinese markets. They know that its hard to be a businessman in China, even with their knowledge, resources, processes and Guanxi, relations.
MNCs know how hard it can be to get things done. Chinese business culture is unique and different. Chinese people may be complicated, having different priorities. In China MNCs face risk of becoming internally localized, kind of "foreign MNC-SOE".
WEAKNESS OF MNCs
With all marketing resources, brands, Guanxi assets, and government relations, why to worry? MNCs are not perfect.
- - MNCs are inflexible in making product changes, product fit
- MNCs are slow in localizing and related decision making
- MNCs have high overhead cost of multilayer organizations
Chinese buyers don't value much SMEs or their products/services, of which they have never heard of. Market economy is still new, and Chinese ability and confidence to evaluate and conclude is still limited. Chinese buyers go big brands for safety. That is clear advantage for MNCs.
Small foreign companies look Chinese markets with little knowledge or resources, and with no Guanxi. But they are hungry, they have ideas. Is business possible without pre-build Guanxi? Is it possible to make a rational leap over Guanxi? How is the byrocracy? Standards? Innovations and even finance?
Small companies may not be afraid to compete with Chinese SMEs, with their famously narrow margins, unique business culture, or other Chinese dragons. They are afraid of missing their China boat.
They can have ideas and competitive products but lack marketing power, and therefore have little influence to Chinese customers. Chinese buyers compare non-branded foreign products to similar domestic products which, as a rule, are very cheap. But this doesn't mean that SMEs have no chance in China.
China business for a small company starts by finding a local partner, which need not to be a big company. First goal together with Chinese partner should be to build foothold into China by making first aggressive deals.
Chinese industrial buyers are knowledgeable about competition and companies concerned. If an SME can make aggressive start with a local partner, word of mouth spreads within the industry and reputation starts to grow.
For SME, new ideas and flexibility to produce "product fit" can become key strength. When sales opportunity appears, small company should be quick to decide and modify its service/product to match Chinese customer's requirements and environment: technology, industrial products, standards, interfaces, software and applications, mobile and online games user-interfaces, colors and story elements, content.
Chinese expect products by smaller companies to be cheaper than products with known brands. But SME can be profitable with lower overhead, by using local partner, via product flexibility. Less can become more.
If SME can position itself in China market with one particular strong product, its reputation gets established and Chinese customers will be impressed. Rapidly this will help to sell other products from the same company. There are success cases of rapid market adaptation.
IN CHINA SMEs NEED PARTNERSHIP AND FLEXIBILITY
Market entry has many aspects: laws, regulations, licenses, standards, procedures, finance, office, recruitment, tariffs, duty, tax, vat, homologation. Consultants and service companies help in practicalities.
Business in China becomes a park walk if you have got a knowledgeable local partner which is an industry expert with Guanxi and has sales ability and geographic reach. Such a partner can help to innovate, gets sales done and becomes a short-cut into China business. SME can establish an R&D unit to China for localization, innovations and market adaptation projects. Dream on, dream on!
Finding a partner is the most critical phase of market entry. China market is in transition, business culture is unique, language is different. First, learn the partner candidate company and map its business capabilities. Next, more difficult part will be the peoples qualities.
Chinese take getting rich is glorious seriously. To implement that famous slogan, there is a risk that some get too serious. That can turn win-win partnership into loose-win or loose-loose middlemanship.
SME should not think of changing Chinese customer's habits. Respect your Chinese customer. Customers don't like middlemen, but they like vendors, the source. It is important to listen customer's product requests, then judge. Producing product fit will later save time and resources, and motivate local partner, the seller.
BUREAUCRACY - Business Registration renewal in Beijing
Step 1.
Approval Certificate, extension valid for 3 years
from China State Science and Technology Ministry
Five appendixes required:
• Business Period Extension letter signed by CEO
• Business Report signed by Chief Representative
• Bank Reference information from the Bank
• Representation Office rent contract signed by office owner
• Letter to certify above documents signed by Chief Representative
Step 2.
Registration Certificate, valid for one year
from State Administration of Industry and Commerce
Two appendixes required:
• Orig. Company Registration Certificate: date, stamp, signature
• English translation version of original with translation stamp
Step 3.
Organizational Code, valid for one year
from Beijing Quality Technology Supervision Bureau
Step 4.
Record for Foreign Company, valid for one year
from Public Security Bureau
Step 5.
Tax Certificates for The Company and Chief Representative
from State Tax Bureau, valid until changes
from Beijing Tax Bureau, valid until changes
Above process may take over one month full time work.
For small companies being China-hungry is of course not enough. Decision and clear commitment to meet Chinese competition and bureaucracy is needed. SMEs should be able to provide product fit, which needs resources and have cost. Clear commitment by head office is a must.
More important than reading market tea-leaves, red or green, is to remember that China is not similar as rules/regulations/laws based "home market". Chinese mentality is different. Learning about China's business culture and f.ex. public bidding process, is needed. Learning about target industry behavior is essential, it's the key goal-reaching enabler. And finding a real Chinese industry expert will not be easy.
If not willing to get-prepared, it certainly is cheaper to miss the China boat. A visiting U.S. professor has even harder opinion: China is still too complex and unlawful for most SMEs to enter.

Former WBO light-heavyweight champion Nathan Cleverly will move up to cruiserweight on his return to the ring on 30 November.
The 26-year-old Welshman lost his unbeaten record and WBO light-heavyweight crown when he was stopped by Sergey Kovalev in Cardiff August, and had hinted that he was considering retirement.
However, according to Wales Online, after a break and time to refocus on his career, the fighter says he is now desperate to get back in the ring and win a second world title in 2014.
He is looking to make a big statement on his cruiserweight debut and says he may face Kovalev again one day.
Now he has a chance to fight for the vacant Commonwealth title against Daniel Ammann next month.
"I'm ready to return and I can't wait for November 30th," Cleverly told Boxing News.
"I've got the hunger and desire back and I want to be a world champion again. I miss having the belt around my waist, but it's not just about the belt."
Australian champion Ammann, from Stockton in New South Wales, has a record of 29 wins from 35 fights and is on an unbeaten eight-fight run.
"It's a good test for me on my return and the opportunity to win the Commonwealth title is a big motivator and will open doors for me," said Cleverly.
"Ammann is a proper cruiserweight and has even fought at heavyweight, he's been around a long time and will have plenty of experience. He looks like a big, rough, tough Aussie and I'm not expecting an easy fight.
"The main thing for me is to show that I'm back in business and ready for my new campaign in the cruiserweight division and I want to put on a good show for the fans and press."
The event, at London's Copper Box Arena will also feature Dereck Chisora, who is making the first defence of his European heavyweight title against Matteo Modugno.

Kind™ Bars: There are many granola type bars on the market. The KIND bar really did catch my eye and taste buds. They are all natural, made of whole nuts and fruit with easily recognizable ingredients. There are about 25 different flavors. They retail for about $1.99 so they are expensive. However I pay for this level of quality. These are great to keep on hand in your desk drawer for emergencies or to keep on hand for a hurried "any time of the day" scenario.
Jeannie-O Turkey burgers: Turkey burgers have grown in popularity over the years and now take their rightful place in the freezer section next to the frozen beef burgers. Now we have multiple options for quick burgers on the grill. Jeannie-O burgers have 7-9g fat and 2-2.5g saturated fat much lower in saturated fat than the traditional frozen beef burger.
Health Valley® Organic: No-added-Salt Soups are now in the organic section of the grocery store. This is great to see! There are ten varieties of Health Valley no-salt-added soup and they contain 0 to 85mg of sodium per serving. Dietitians used to tell people to look for soup with 460mg of sodium or less and now we can find soup with 0mg sodium per serving. How wonderful especially for people who are on severe sodium restrictions.
Whole wheat pastry flour: This is not a new thing to me…but I used to have to go to the health food store to find it. This is a wonderful replacement for all-purpose flour in baking quick breads. It is milled from soft wheat and is a lower gluten flour so it makes tender baked goods with the same whole grain goodness of whole wheat flour (traditionally milled from hard red wheat). Because of the lower gluten content it is not suitable alone for recipes using yeast.
Colorful Harvest Rainbow Crunch™ Carrots: As the name describes there are a rainbow of colors in this bag of carrots. The colors include: shades of red, orange, tangerine, yellow, white, purple, and cream. All the carrots have similar nutrient contents but contain different phytochemicals from which their unique colors are derived.
Cara Cara orange: One word for this is delicious. The Cara Cara orange is characterized by a flesh color ranging from pink to deep red. In flavor it is sweet and low in acid. It was developed accidentally perhaps as a cross of orange varietals, but this is not known with complete certainty. You can take my word for it though they are delicious! The season is about over so get some today!
Petite Sweet Potatoes: Green Giant has added a 24 ounce bag of petite sweet potatoes. The potatoes steam in the bag and can be ready in 10 minutes. This makes them convenient for families who need to get dinner on the table and fast. I love when healthy food and convenience collide. Great idea from the Giant!

I know I might be a little late on this one, but those of us who went on vacation the week after New Year's may just still be cleaning up after Christmas. This year I invested in some beautiful champagne flutes as I hosted both Christmas and New Year's eve at my house. So I'm adding to my fancy-dish storage collection a special keeper for my festive glassware. Stemware chests come in all sizes, colors and various degrees of protection. There are even special chests for balloon style wine glasses. You certainly don't have to do this for your everyday wine glasses, but it's a great idea for special-occasion glassware, and in particular, champagne glasses (because what else are they for but special-occasions, right?) For something as fragile as thin glass, I suggest a hard-shell outer box with dividers on the inside, like this fluted stemware storage chest. Stemware storage boxes do a much better job than the old cardboard and newspaper diy models, and are relatively inexpensive – a great investment to keep your glassware in great shape in between uses!

Someone jockeying for earnings perhaps? This #$%$ has happened in the past before SKUL has made a big move. IMO
As usual... Big move after flat line trading period... Always to the down side. Yesterday (after some volatility trading following Wednesdays Flat Line day) had a tailing period of flat line as well.
Was hoping it was to the upside, but as usual.... Dive dive dive.... Expect a nice pop next week after this dump/buy trend is over today.

Hi Liveleakers, I was just watching some LL videos when Murali dropped by (literally).
Looks like a fun job - a combination of Spider-Man and Robocop.
He kindly blasted my balcony which wasn't in his job description - so I gave him a bonus ball - I think that means something else in the States!!
I wasn't really sure what category to post this under as its my first original content.
I opted for 'Yousay' and will follow that up by having a say - anytime I see a video of Sub-continent workers in Dubai there is a tirade of 'slave labour' / poor conditions etc. I asked Murali, politely, what he got paid and he was happy to tell me about $575 per month. A kings ransom compared with what he could earn in his village in Kerala, India. He'll work abroad for 10 years and go home a 'wealthy' man and he'll also provide for his family and extended family while here.
Yes in the past conditions in Dubai for SC workers was bad and some still are but they have implementied legislation and it is now much improved.
When myself and Murali finish working in Dubai or if we were to lose our jobs - there would be no welfare and no free accommodation, we would be invited to leave and go home. If we break the law or insult the culture here; we face a jail sentence followed by deportation. Islam is the religion here, although there are Christian churches to worship in. It is however illegal to preach Christianity.
What a great system - your welcome to come, work, enjoy and contribute - but when that is not the case or you break the law you are kicked out.
Where did they get this model? Dubai was a British protectorate until 1971 - they saw the way Britain was going with mass immigration and the problems that come with it and adopted a system based on lessons learnt on how not to do it.
The Britain of today is a mess, multiculturalism has failed, our polititians have failed us, it is time to implement strict immegration policies, to stop bowing down to Islamic ideology that is so repugnant to the vast majority of your population.
No model is perfect but multiculturalism works in Dubai, when you fail to contribute to this multicultural society you are sent home.
What sickens me the most is that, from what I've said above, I will be called a racist - my friends and colleagues from all over the world and from several different religious backgrounds would beg to differ.
And I echo Muralis comment 'Hello LiveLeak' my kind of 1st yoursay.

is that right? would i have to first find a house then apply or wat??
thankyou for everyones help xxx

You can also privately rent and the council will give you housing benefit and even help you pay the deposit. Its called housing allowance now and is calculated depending on your needs for example how many children you have, how many rooms you will need etc.
Example if its only you and your daughter and you privately rent a four bedroom house they will only pay benefit to your needs because really you only need a max of two bedrooms so they will asses you based on the average cost of a two bedroom.
You will also be entitled to income support and a higher level of tax credits as a single parent.

Because it's interesting, challenging and rewarding! National annual expenditures in construction top $500 billion, and construction and related activities generate 20 percent of the U.S. gross domestic product (GDP). With an AAS degree in Construction Management Technology from SFCC you will have the knowledge and skills to start a career in America's largest economic sector.
What types of skills do I need?
Knowledge and skills in science, business and management, construction materials and methods, codes and regulations are a must. Today's contractors also need to know how to use computers to work with building plans, develop estimates, manage costs, and set schedules.
You should enjoy people and believe in a team approach to problem solving. Add to those skills a positive, can-do attitude and a professional approach.
State and federal agencies project substantial shortages in people qualified to manage construction projects over the next 10 years. Careeronestop.com, a site sponsored by the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration and several construction industry organizations, predicts the U.S. will need 123,000 new construction project managers over the next eight years. The projected job growth for this category is 10 to 20 percent per year. Some of the most sought-after college graduates are construction technology management graduates. Nationwide, many two-year graduates annually earn between $30,000 and $40,000.

Thanks for visiting.
My name is Kelly Stokoe and I offer energy healing sessions for you and your animal companions. I also teach Reiki and Pet First Aid.
I am a:
Reiki Practitioner
Reiki Master Teacher (Usui Shiki Ryoho tradition)
Healing Touch for Animals® (Level 4) practitioner
CranioSacral Therapy for Animals practitioner
Student of the Healing Touch ProgramTM
American Red Cross Pet First Aid Instructor.
Through the use of specific, non-invasive, hands-on/hands-off techniques, essential oils (aromatherapy) and tuning forks (vibration and sound therapy) I can assist the body to self-heal as a result of heightened relaxation, energy movement and balance. Reiki/Healing Touch sessions can bring positive changes to any level of your physical, mental or emotional being. If you've never tried it, you owe it to yourself!
If you share your life with animals, you will find that they are very receptive to all of the above therapies and love to receive them. Having our own energy systems in balance not only improves our well being, but also positively enhances the lives of our pets.
Although we can't see it, our energy fields overlap and blend with those of our pets. Quite often we are the beneficiaries of their positive, therapeutic energies. This has been proven time and again in our homes when our pets respond to our stress and comfort our illness. Animal therapy is used worldwide in assisting hospital patients, children and the elderly.
Unfortunately, as we exhibit negative emotions and anxiety, our energy fields change dramatically and affect our pets, who are so instinctively tuned in to us that they become a reflection of us. This has a direct impact on disease and their overall well-being.
Whether you've already discovered the benefits to energy work or you're a curious newcomer, you'll find answers to basic questions on why energy healing works and how it can benefit everyone in your family. Please visit Energy Work FAQs.
If you still have questions, please feel free to email me.
Kelly Stokoe
"The energy work we offer for the well-being of our pets is only as good as the environment we create for them at home. Our well-being is the biggest part of that."

Sony Pays For Free Games On PlayStation Plus
Posted on Friday, October 4 @ 14:42:29 PST by Nicholas Tan
It's been a safe assumption ever since PlayStation Plus first offered free games in its Instant Game Collection that it can't be free for Sony. There isn't much point for a developer to distribute their games for free apart from exposure and temporary appreciation from fans, unless there's a substantial incentive.
Now this transaction has been made crystal clear. Brian Silva, PlayStation manager of developer relations, revealed that Sony will have "buyouts" of some games to be free for a month on PlayStation Plus, during a discussion with developers at Indiecade.
The exact amount that Sony gives developers wasn't reported, though that may not diminish the feeling that these free games are a part of some dark business plan. But it all makes sense: The developers receive an assured amount of money in the bank as well as advertising for about a month, while Sony bolsters the number of subscriber for PlayStation Plus. It's a win-win feedback loop, and the savings are passed onto the consumer who, as Anthony calculated, saved over $1800 in games in a single year.
The more, the merrier. Besides, it will only make PlayStation Plus that much more attractive for PlayStation 4 and pressure Xbox Live on Xbox One to have free deals of its own.

Columbus gets redemption in 36-19 win over Killian
caines | 12/6/2012, 6:50 a.m.
Killian had high hopes this year after a dismal season the year before. And while they did improve, their season ended last Friday at FIU-South after a revenge-seeking Columbus defeated the Cougars 36-19 in the Region 4-8A finals. Everything that could have gone wrong, did for the Cougars. The Explorers (9-4) jumped to a 22-0 lead in the first half after the Cougars missed several tackles, including one on the opening kickoff return that put Columbus on the Cougars 4-yard line and subsequently scoring all within the first 20 seconds of the game. The Cougars, who defeated the Explorers 21-7 in the last game of the regular season, would never recover from the deficit. Its not revenge its redemption, said Chris Merritt, Columbus head coach. We came out on fire and our defense played lights out. The Columbus defense forced three Cougar turnovers and an interception as Killians passing game was limited to 51 yards. One of the Cougars leading rushers, Jaquan Johnson, struggled with only 26 rushing yards. In the third quarter the Cougars showed signs of life scoring 13 points but they were unable to stop an electrified Explorer offense. Despite the defeat, Killian has nothing to be ashamed of under Head Coach and school alumnus Cory Johnson. The Cougars record improved from 1-9 in 2010 to 6-4 in 2011. Johnson, who is completing his fourth season as head coach, says the program is headed in the right direction and commended his players. I am proud of these guys and have tremendous respect for them, Johnson said. The K is back. By Akilah firstname.lastname@example.com

Boy, 8, accidentally shot by brother in Baton Rouge
Victim suffers gunshot wound to shoulder
Published 1:28 PM CDT May 19, 2013
Authorities say a 12-year-old boy accidentally shot his 8-year-old brother with a gun he found in a closet at his grandparents' Baton Rouge home.
The Advocate reported that the 8-year-old was shot in his shoulder and taken to a hospital Saturday for treatment of injuries that weren't considered life-threatening.
A spokeswoman for the East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff's Office said the 12-year-old found the gun, a .380-caliber pistol, on the top shelf of a closet.
No charges were immediately filed, but the shooting remained under investigation.

We purchased medical equipment from Governemnt liquidation and the equipment was basically garbage. It should not have ever been sold or represented as usable equipment, instead it should have been scrapped. We received pieces of equipment that had been crushed, were missing components, and were completely inoperable.
One example of the equipment is as follows:
We purchased an x-ray unit, advertised as used. The pictures showed an x-ray unit in a green military style case, they had approximately 10 of these cases, each being sold seperately. We picked one of the units, bid on it, paid for it, and had it picked up and delivered to us. Upon receipt of the unit, we opened the green case to find it empty! There was no x-ray unit at all. We called government Liquidation only to find that they believe they don't have to inspect the property they sell. They said they represented it to the best of their ability! A green case was sold to us as an x-ray unit!!!! Unbelievable!
Similar problems occurred with every single piece of equipment we purchased. Exam Tables were crushed, iv poles were bent and missing parts....it is junk.

many lots we have bid on based on the picture and description were not even close to what was sold.
example , micorwave radio set shown in orig boxes on pallet, shrinked wrapped and ready to ship,
cost me $2500 and $600 shipping, what we got was boxes that origonally were used to ship the sets, and had used pc power supplies in each one.
gov liq reply to emails with pictures showing what we got, too bad, the lot was delivered.
scary part of the deal is that the items required an euc ( form saying the items are military items and can not be exported and we are responsible for keeping track of where they go)
sooo, if feds come here to see the radar units, what do I have to show, empty boxes?

Will we let them pass the buck?
AUTHOR: Outraged2007 - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Friday, February 08, 2008POSTED: Friday, February 08, 2008
But everyone blames them for selling junk and not disclosing it to potential buyers. Worse, their descriptions of items for sale are ambiguous at best if not outright willful misrepresentations. That's what's wrong. Blaming the government is not going to cut it this time.
Buyers who are far from the warehouses where the goods are located have no other choice but to trust the descriptions given by the auction houses. And they are easy preys for unscrupulous Internet sellers.
End of comment. I hope I didn't abuse this space and the opportunity. Thank you.
