Interest rates on certain kinds of federal loans to college students could double as a result of the latest Washington, D.C., stalemate, but even then, they will likely remain a viable option for many college students, a Marietta College official said.
Separate Democratic and Republican bills to stop the increase on federally subsidized Stafford loan rates failed last week when neither could garner the 60 votes needed to move forward on procedural votes. Both sides seem to agree something should be done to stop the rates from increasing, but so far, they haven't been able to settle on how to do it.
Recent Waterford High School graduate Alan Brooker, 18, is headed for the University of Cincinnati in the fall and he may need Stafford loans to help him afford it. While he admits he hasn't given too much thought to his post-college debt, he'd like to see the interest rates stay on the low end.
"That'd be a major concern," he said. "Prices are expensive enough the way it is for college students."
Students already finished with college would not see a change in their interest rates, but incoming students like Brooker would. And because Stafford loans only apply to a single school year, current students who received the loans in years past at 3.4 percent would be paying the higher rate on subsequent loans.
A release from the Ohio Public Interest Research Group estimates more than 360,000 borrowers could be affected and says keeping the rate at 3.4 percent would save more than $322 million that could be spent in other parts of the economy.

By the numbers
972 - Number of Marietta College students who received subsidized federal Stafford loans in the 2012-13 school year.
$4,636,712 - Amount of money loaned to those students.
747 - Number of Washington State Community College students who received subsidized federal Stafford loans in the 2012-13 school year.
$2,232,844 - Amount of money loaned to those students.
3.4 percent - Interest rate on those loans.
6.8 percent - Interest rate on loans originating on July 1 and after if Congress does not act.

In the 2012-13 school year, 972 Marietta College students received more than $4.6 million in Stafford loans, while 747 Washington State Community College students received more than $2.2 million, according to statistics provided by U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown's office.
Kevin Lamb, director of student financial services at Marietta College, estimates the interest rate increase could add about $30 to the monthly payments of students who receive Stafford loans for four years in college and about $3,800 total over the life of the loan. While he hopes "the lower interest rates would prevail," Lamb said even at the higher rate the Stafford loans would have advantages over alternative approaches.
"The subsidized Stafford loans, even if they did have 6.8 percent, probably come out being in the long run still a good choice for students to look at," he said.
Many private education loans would require a co-signer, and interest would likely be at a variable rate, Lamb said. If the student did obtain a fixed-rate loan, it would probably be closer to 8 percent, he said.
That doesn't mean private loans aren't useful, but Lamb said students should consider their options carefully when deciding what kind of loan to get. He said fixed rates seem like a better idea for first-time borrowers.
"I think the fixed interest rate's a little bit easier to wrap their minds around," Lamb said.
Lamb said he's heard some concerns from students about the possible increase, as he did last year before Congress extended the 3.4 percent interest rate for another year.
While the primary burden of increased interest rates would fall on students, colleges and universities could be impacted as well, since student loan default rates are one factor used in determining financial aid and other considerations, Lamb said.
The 6.8 percent rate may not look good next to 3.4 percent, but, according to The Associated Press, it would be comparable to eventual rates under plans supported by House Republicans and President Barack Obama that would tie the interest rate to financial markets.
Under both, rates would be lower than 6.8 percent in the first few years, the AP reported. But by 2017, the rate was projected to be 7.4 percent under the House GOP plan and 6.1 percent in 2018 under the president's version.
Obama has threatened to veto the House bill. Congressman Bill Johnson, R-Ohio, accused the president of playing politics with the issue.
"The House passed a bill, with my support, that would permanently fix the student loan interest rate issue, and prevent Washington from using America's college students as political pawns in the future," Johnson said in an emailed statement. "The bill was based on the president's own proposal; yet he was unsatisfied. Why? He now wants Congress to continue subsidizing the cost of students loans, leaving the American taxpayers to foot the bill."
Brown supported a bill in the Senate to extend the 3.4 percent rate for another two years. Although that didn't move forward, he said in an emailed statement Tuesday that he's still working on the issue.
"Affordable education should be a top national priority," Brown said. "That's why I'm working with leadership from both sides of the aisle to reach an agreement that will freeze interest rates so a college education remains accessible for hundreds of thousands of Ohioans who rely on these critical loans each school year."

U. S. Customs agents arrest man wanted in Watauga for indecency with a child
U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers at the Port of San Diego arrested a 33-year-old man Monday wanted for indecency with a child in Watauga as the man tried to board a cruise ship.
Robert Luis Sanford of San Diego, is wanted by the Watauga Police Department, according to a felony arrest warrant issued for Sanford's in March. Sanford posted bond this morning and was released from the San Diego County Jail.
According to Watauga police Det. William Allen, the offense occurred last August when Sanford was in town visiting relatives. The victim was a 10-year-old female relative of Sanford's. Det. Allen said Watauga authorities had been trying to get in touch with Sanford since the attack, but had been unsuccessful.
"I don't even know that he knew there was a warrant out for his arrest," Det. Allen said. The detective said that he is in the process of filing paperwork with the Tarrant County district attorney's office that would eventually lead to Sanford's extradition back to Texas.

DETROIT — The U.S. Federal Highway Administration says steel from both the U.S. and Canada may be used in the construction of a Canadian-financed bridge planned for between Detroit and Windsor, Ontario.
The Detroit News and the Detroit Free Press report a waiver on a policy requiring that only U.S. steel be used went into effect this week. Backers of the project say they're pleased by the decision on the waiver, which was sought by Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder.
Mark Butler, a spokesman for Transport Canada, applauded the waiver, calling it vital for the construction of the international span.
The owners of the Ambassador Bridge, which currently connects Detroit and Windsor, objected to the waiver. They want to build their own second bridge across the Detroit River.
Meanwhile, 16 construction and transportation organizations joined Associated Equipment Distributors (AED) in calling on President Barack Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to swiftly approve construction of the proposed new international trade crossing.
The groups said in a letter to the president and Clinton that the new bridge would serve as a much needed alternative at the busiest U.S.-Canada commercial border crossing.
"Each day, more than 8,000 trucks use the Ambassador Bridge, an 83-year-old structure, which carried $120 billion of trade in 2011," the groups said. "Inadequate capacity is restricting job creation and economic growth opportunities and the situation will only worsen as truck traffic at the border crossing is expected to increase 128 percent over the next 30 years. The Ambassador Bridge is inadequate to handle the demands of international commerce."
In the letter from organizations representing construction workers, contractors, suppliers, businesses, manufacturers, and highway users said that, "while the new bridge is expected to sustain and create millions of jobs in the United States once finished, there will be an immediate boost to the construction sector as this significant infrastructure project gets underway."
The project is expected to support 10,000 to 15,000 direct construction jobs in Michigan alone, though the long lasting impact of a NITC will be felt by the entire region, the groups said.
"The entire Midwest relies on reliable transportation infrastructure at the Detroit-Windsor crossing to get goods to the market," the letter said.

AOL (NYSE: AOL ) wants to be your digital postman. Again.
The company best known for the refrain "You've Got Mail" -- so popular that producers adopted the name for a 1998 romantic comedy starring Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks -- has introduced a self-organizing email app in limited release. Those who have access as of this writing can sign in with an existing AOL email account or any of a number of other cloud-accessible services from Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL ) , Google (Nasdaq: GOOG ) , or Yahoo! (Nasdaq: YHOO ) .
Alto's purported innovation is organizing email into "stacks" of common content. Not that the system lacks an inbox. Rather, the main screen is divided in two, with the left side resembling a Twitter feed, and the right screenshots of "stacks" of mail that share an attribute, such as sender or domain. Default stacks include daily deals, social notifications, retail, photos, and attachments.
Though the look is certainly different, the 'stacks' concept isn't necessarily new. Gmail uses patterns to determine when messages are 'important' and creates a custom tab for organizing them. And Yahoo! Mail has Organizer, which sweeps messages into folders automatically. Organizer also uses similar defaults to Alto when self-selecting new folders.
And yet, David Temkin insists there are differences. AOL's senior vice president of mobile and mail told Fast Company, which broke the news, that Alto's Twitter-like interface was built to "attract people from across a coffee shop" as it boosts productivity. Whether users come to appreciate the intended nuance is a question only time can answer.

A lawmaker has introduced a bill that would make it illegal for any child younger than 8 years old to ride on a motorcycle in Nebraska.
Lincoln Sen. Bill Avery introduced a bill Monday that would insert the age requirement into state law.
Five other states have enacted age minimums for motorcycle passengers, according to the American Motorcyclist Association. Arkansas requires that children be at least 8 years old, while Hawaii mandates that passengers be at least 7 years old. Louisiana, Texas and Washington each require that passengers be at least 5 years old.
A spokesman for the American Motorcyclist Association says his group prefers passenger restrictions that are based on physical size rather than age.

As victory-challenged as the Warriors have been in recent weeks, the one thing you can say about them is they haven't rolled over on an essentially meaningless final month of the season.
The club has continued to stay focused and feisty despite its obvious deficiencies in experience and health, and Saturday the Warriors finally got rewarded for their dogged persistence -- an efficient, well-balanced 112-97 victory over the Denver Nuggets at Oracle Arena.
It was just Golden State's second win in nine games but one that might signal a positive kick to an otherwise gloomy finish line.
"I've been saying it, we're going to continue to play hard to the final game," said forward David Lee, who failed to score 20 points for the first time in eight games but didn't care one bit. "We've got a team that gets along well, a team that has great chemistry, and we're going to continue to scrap. We're undermanned right now, but we love going out there and competing."
Lee had 17 points to go along with nine rebounds, which was a bit of a comedown for him the way he's been playing of late. Entering Saturday, he was averaging 26.3 points, 8.7 rebounds and 4.3 assists over the past seven games.
But Lee didn't need to come up so big because he got loads of help on this night. Six other Warriors scored in double figures, led by Brandon Rush's 20 off the bench.
Not much went wrong against a Nuggets team that's trying to hold on to a playoff berth. The Warriors already stunned the Nuggets in Denver earlier this season, so they're really starting to become a pain to George Karl's club.
"It's very satisfying knowing that (Denver) came in with something to play for, with payback on their mind, and we found a way to put together 48 minutes of basketball," Warriors coach Mark Jackson said. "Just a great team effort, a total team effort."
Jackson gave 10 players double-digit minutes, and each contributed, even much-maligned Andris Biedrins, who had six rebounds, two blocks and a couple of buckets. Rookie Jeremy Tyler narrowly missed his first NBA double-double with eight points and 10 rebounds.
The Warriors led almost from start to finish. They even responded when Denver cut a 17-point third-quarter lead to five early in the fourth quarter. Lee and rookie Klay Thompson hit baskets to put the lead back up to double digits, then Rush delivering the dagger with 3-point shots on back-to-back possessions with just under five minutes to play.
The performance might not mean much in the standings, but Lee thinks it's vitally important in the bigger picture of the future.
"You just don't walk in next year with a healthy Steph (Curry) and a healthy Andrew Bogut to winning basketball," he said. "It starts with an attitude right now of continuing to compete to the end of the season and have our coaching staff knowing who they can rely on going into next year."
Lee has been a leader on that front even as the Warriors have struggled ever since Curry went down and Monta Ellis and Epke Udoh were traded for an injured Bogut.
Lee's play might be going unnoticed by the outside world, but it hasn't escaped the attention of Jackson.
"He's paid a lot of money to play the game of basketball, but I've played this game and I've covered this game, and when you're playing for what seems to be nothing, some guys don't bring it," Jackson said. "So I don't take for granted having a star player finishing the right way, sending a message."

Glen Andresen's Five Takeaways at Edmonton
Tuesday, 01.18.2011 / 11:16 PM CT / Minnesota Wild | Features
By Glen Andresen - Manager of Social Media
vs. Vancouver: January 16
vs. Colorado: January 14
at Nashville: January 11
vs. Dallas: January 9
at Pittsburgh: January 8
at Boston: January 6
at New Jersey: January 4
vs. Phoenix: January 2
Don't get me wrong, I predicted a Minnesota Wild victory tonight over the Edmonton Oilers, and our boys proved me to be a genius once again by dumping the Oil, 4-1. But, there was this devil named Negative Tom, who was standing on my shoulder and chirping in my ear, saying this would be a dangerous game. After a stirring 4-0 win over Vancouver on Sunday, and the prospect of having to get up for the worst team in the Conference on the road started to have my buying in a little bit to what Negative Tom was trying to sell.
But then I started listening to Positive Pat on my left shoulder. He was telling me the Wild had played six consecutive periods of outstanding hockey and they would be able to keep that going. He insisted the Oilers were in trouble without regulars like Jordan Eberle, Shawn Horcoff and Ryan Whitney. Positive Pat also reminded me that the Wild is a brand new team in road games this year. You know what? Positive Pat was right. There was nothing to fear. As long as the Wild stayed out of the box, this one would be an easy 4-1 victory.
"We got the two points, that's what we came up here for," said Head Coach Todd Richards. "The goaltender was great. He was the difference in the game."
Actually, "easy" might not be the exact word I'm looking for. Richards said, "Our execution was horrendous tonight." But what was more challenging was the Wild's parade to the penalty box for the second straight game in Edmonton. The first six penalties of the game were called on the Wild, and that included two penalties within 20 seconds of each other in the second period.
The Wild penalty killers were spectacular all night (until the very end), but it was head scratching. The last time the Wild visited Edmonton, they were called for 10 minor penalties that resulted in Oiler power plays. I would say most of the calls were correct, but once again, there were plenty of chances to call Oiler interference or cross checks and they never were.
Penalties finally were called on Edmonton in the third, but by that time, things were starting to get out of hand. Theo Peckham, known for his fighting ability, repeatedly crosschecked Martin Havlat while the Wild star was on the ice. When Havlat responded by tripping the hulking defenseman, he wanted to fight. Really Theo?
Of course, during that confrontation, another fighter and one of the most irritating players in the league – Zack Stortini – found Wild All-Star Brent Burns and wanted to fight. Detractors can say whatever they want, but Burns isn't going to give himself up for five minutes in exchange for a guy like Stortini. Burns never even dropped his gloves while Stortini attempted to land blows to the kidney and the head. Really Zack?
Finally, Brad Staubitz had had enough. He reacted to a Jean-Francois Jacques hit on Andrew Brunette late in the game and dropped the gloves. Staubitz was given an instigator penalty, which could result in a fine for Richards. When asked if he thinks he'll have to write a check, he smiled, "I don't write checks. My wife writes all the checks."
Richards took a more serious tone when he said, "We'll see what happens the next time we come up here." Is it too early to predict a Matt Kassian recall sometime before February 22?
I can't believe we're down to number four and I haven't even mentioned Anton Khudobin. Sometimes I go off on tangents. I guess I'm a little like Khudobin in that way. The guy might be all over the place, but he almost always ends up in the postgame press area after another win.
Tonight was Khudobin's first start on the road, and by golly, the kid was all right once again. He's unorthodox. At times it looked like he got lucky when the Oilers missed about 10 open nets. And yet, he extended his shutout streak to nearly six periods. Only a late and meaningless power play goal prevented his second straight shutout, and a shameless Wild.com headline of "Khu Da Man?"
And finally the goal scorers: Matt Cullen now has a goal in two straight games. Burns now has 13 goals on the season. Pierre-Marc Bouchard has nine career goals against Edmonton, which is his highest total against any opponent. And Andrew Brunette scored a goal for the third straight game, and he now has 250 NHL goals and 300 points in a Wild sweater. I would say that if Cullen, Burns, Bouchard and Brunette are scoring goals, things are looking bright and sunshiny for the good guys.

The Red Room
by H.G. Wells
Character Role Analysis
The Narrator/Reason
No surprises here. The narrator is the guy with the heroic quest He wants to prove that the red room isn't haunted by spending the night in the room. He and his trusty candles represent the forces of light pitched against the forces of darkness. We have numerous such forces: the ghost that supposedly haunts the red room, the fear that actually haunts it, and the literal darkness. He's also the central character, the only character we know much about, and the character around whom the plot centers.
Actually, you could make the case that the protagonist is not just the narrator, but also the narrator's reason. Fear, which is definitely the antagonist, is something within the narrator. The narrator's fear struggles against his reason. It's the narrator's reason that gets "crushed" (45) by the darkness. Once this happens, he goes bananas and knocks himself unconscious.
That might be making things a little abstract, and it might not work so well in other respects: the narrator's literal fight against the darkness with candles is certainly his own attempt to control his fear, but it's not obvious how you could say his reason is fighting against the darkness. On the other hand, the narrator clearly identifies with his reason over his irrational fear. By making the narrator's reason the protagonist (or one of the protagonists), you can frame the story as an epic conflict between Reason and Fear that bears on all mankind.

This Northern super-group took on Sade's "By Your Side" at a recent Daytrotter session as well as at some shows. They added some Auto-Tune and a background choir of voices to cover this slow jam.

Russian warns: "Geneva II" a must for Syria
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov responded to critics of a US-Russia initiative for a peace conference on Syria on Wednesday warning that bringing down the Al Assad regime militarily posed a "huge threat" to the region.
"Open objections have surfaced against holding this Russia-US meeting [dubbed Geneva II], not only among Syrian sides but also among capitals, both in neighboring and non-neighboring states," Lavrov said during a visit to Athens.
"We must not allow this initiative to fizzle out," he added, arguing that the taking down President Assad's regime through military means would cause an "extremist" state and pose a "huge threat to those living in Syria and the area".
Damascus has branded the uprising-turned-rebellion as a foreign-backed plot since the start of the conflict in March 2011.
Moscow and the US have worked to win support for peace talks in Geneva from the warring sides in Syria, where more than 115,000 people are estimated to have been killed in the conflict.
In the latest update on peace efforts, almost 20 Islamist groups fighting to bring down Assad's regime issued a statement Sunday saying the Geneva conference "is not, nor will it ever be our people's choice or our revolution's demand".

Does the Bomber Theory help explain the British policy of Appeasement in the 1920s and 1930s?
A look at the evolution of air power, and the people behind the development of the Bomber Theory. Does the belief that 'the bomber wil always get through' help explain Chamberlain's actions? Does the RAF's need to justify its independence explain defence priorities in the 1920s and 1930s? A novel approach to the topic of Appeasement.

Rugby World Cup Moved From Christchurch After Quake
By Lucy Craymer and Rebecca Howard
WELLINGTON–Rugby World Cup matches won't be held in Christchurch after a February earthquake severely damaged the country's second largest city and caused damaged to the city's rugby stadium and pitch, the New Zealand government said Wednesday.
"We were confronted with a range of risks and uncertainties that were unacceptable. The risks of proceeding as planned are too great," Rugby World Cup Minister Murray McCully said following a meeting of government ministers and International Rugby Board officials.
The decision to move the games is another blow for the region's economy that has been seriously impacted by the 6.3-magnitude earthquake. The tournament is expected to boost the nation's economy by 700 million New Zealand dollars (US$512 million), according to the Reserve Bank of New Zealand, but little of this will be felt in Christchurch now that the games have been moved.
The two quarterfinals scheduled for Christchurch Oct. 8 and 9 will now take place in the country's largest city, Auckland, Mr. McCully said. Eden Park stadium in Auckland is also the venue for the semifinals and finals.
Christchurch was scheduled to host pool matches between England and Argentina on Sept. 10, Australia and Italy on Sept. 11, England and Georgia on Sept. 18, Argentina and Scotland on Sept. 25, and Australia and Russia on Oct. 1, according to the Associated Press.
Existing ticket holders will be offered refunds or reallocated seats for the matches.
Mr. McCully said while the Christchurch stadium's structures could have been fixed before the start of the matches they could only be fixed in time if normal procurement processes were bypassed, placing insurance cover at risk. There was also a risk further testing would reveal other problems that could result in additional delays.
"Complete replacement of the turf at AMI Stadium is required. We have been advised that would be a tightly managed six-month-long project to replace it and that the turf was uninsured," he said.
The New Zealand government has announced a NZ$4.1 million grant to pay for the turf to be replaced.
"This has been a hard decision for all involved, given the place of Canterbury in New Zealand Rugby and the tremendous enthusiasm and support that the people of Christchurch have displayed for RWC 2011," International Rugby Board Chairman Bernard Lapasset said.
Almost one-third of central city buildings may have to be demolished, AP said, while roads and other infrastructure around various utilities are affected. Two of Christchurch's largest hotels are marked for demolition and others have sustained serious damage, significantly impacting the city's ability to accommodate both teams and fans.

We believe that great clients and great advisors have a sincere desire to do their best thinking in any planning cycle. Yet with the complexities inherent to corporate planning for Fortune 1,000 companies and personal planning for self-made families, it's all too easy for intellectual creativity to get diluted and momentum to dissipate.
That's why we created a philosophy and a methodology that allows all the stakeholders in planning to consistently do their best thinking on any project at hand. It begins with The Shared Lens™ – an authentic desire to understand the complete breadth of your challenges and opportunities; an open-ended inquiry that allows us to truly understand the needs and vantage points of all participants in the process. We leave The Shared Lens with clear drivers for the planning.
With these clear drivers front and center, we move into The Inspired Purpose™, creating a thinking environment that invites key participants to rise to the occasion of their deepest creativity and best intellectual capital. Because every voice matters, the quality of idea flow is unprecedented. All solutions are vetted against The Shared Lens™.
The momentum is palpable as we move into fruition with The Vested Outcome™. Since the planning was inspired by the client's clarity, and all of the professionals at the table played a role in creating the solutions, all players are vested in seeing the plan executed.
Perhaps most importantly, the thinking environment created the first time we collaborate becomes a dynamic we can come back to any time a small decision or a big decision is on the table. The excitement and efficiency for future planning cycles becomes uncanny. And, the process is equally effective whether we're at the planning table with the client, or supporting their longstanding advisors behind the scenes. That's why we call it Inspired by Why™…

Synopsis and Features
Kratos, a powerful Spartan warrior and the new God of War, earned the title after defeating Ares, the original Greek God of War. Zeus, the King of the Mount Olympus, betrays Kratos by draining his godly powers and killing him. As Kratos is slowly dragged to hell, he is rescued by the Titan Gaia, who helps him escape his hell. She informs him that if he can find the Sisters of Fate, he can travel back in time and avenge his betrayal by taking revenge on Zeus. She also reveals to him that Zeus betrayed the Titans and took his father's place as revenge for the cruelty inflicted by his father on his siblings. He also finds out that Gaia and other Titans like her, want revenge on Zeus to avenge the loss in the Great War.
Thus set on a path of destruction, Kratos has to travel to different places like the Underworld, the Lair of Typhon, the ancient City of Rhodes, the Island of Creation, Tartarus and Mount Olympus. Vanquishing enemies with the fabled Blades of Athena, Kratos makes his way through many a foe and as the game progresses he finds other weapons like the Barbarian Hammer, the Spear of Destiny and the Blade of Olympus. As Kratos, you will have to solve puzzles, climb walls, swing on ropes and balance across beams to proceed. Athena's Blades are attached to chains that are wrapped around Kratos' hands. Kratos also has to find other relics like the Golden Fleece and Icarus' Wings to proceed in the game. Kratos also gets a special ability known as the Rage of the Titans which makes him temporarily invulnerable.

Best One Out ThereIve tried all of the straighteners out there and this one is definitely the best! It even curls hair because of the rounded barrel. Useful if your traveling and dont want to bring your curling iron and flat iron. My first one I ever bought was a Chi which is/was, supposedly, the holy grail of hair irons at my school. It did straighten my hair but did nothing against the humidity and it really damaged it in the long run. I then tried the Sedu. Its the second best straightener in my opion, but I had to go over each piece of hair more than once. I actually didnt buy my GHD from Folica (I bought it from the Sephora F&F sale for slightly cheaper,) but I think it needs more reviews! And no, Im not a wavy/straight haired person raving about this iron. I have very curly hair that is stubborn and very, very thick. It normally takes me an hour and a half to straighten my hair with other irons (and I use top of the line products and do my hair in layers,) but with the GHD it took me forty minutes and stopped it from frizzing! You shouldnt be disappointed! I even converted a lot of people at my school from those terrible Chi irons :DJul 8, 2008ghd Classic 1" StylerHAIR TYPECurly Hair

Best Straightener Available, Worth The Money!I bought this straightener from sephora two days ago after reading all of the incredible reviews from people. Before I had a straightener, I dont even know the brand sorry, with about 2" by 3" plates, and compared to my friends straighteners, it did a pretty good job. It was maybe $100 or so. Now I realize what a piece of crap it was!!! The ghd heats up immediately. The woman at sephora told me, do you know why it is so much harder to straighten the bottom of your hair than the top? because you start at the top and the hair there absorbs the heat so there isnt nearly as much left when you get to the bottom of your hair, so its hard to straighten. The ghd straighteners have a device that measures the heat in them every 1/17 second or something to make sure that it is consistent instead of getting cooler at the bottom. And finally, my ends are perfectly straight now, which is somethign i never had before! When I used to run my fingers through my hair after using my old straightener, the ends would feel fried and rough. With the ghd, my ends feel just as healthy, and look just as healthy as the top part of my hair near the roots. What the ghd iv has the the ghd doesnt have (according to the sephora salesperson) is that it somehow measure the damage in your hair and applies its heat accordingly. So the stronger and healthier parts of your hair near the root are given more heat than the tips.Finally, this straightener give your hair an INCREDIBLE shine! If youre having doubts about buying this straightener because of the price etc., dont because you will be so glad you bought it!Jun 14, 2008ghd Classic 1" Styler

Seriously The Best!!I have the worst frizziest thick hair ever. I usually get it done in a salon because no at home product has ever made it straight enough to go out with. Well I bought this product at a near sephora. I love it! My hair is so shiny and soft. Literally like my salon does it!! Seriously, if you are reading this, dont contemplate anymorethis is def worth every penny & more!May 20, 2008ghd Classic 1" Styler

The Best Iron Out There!!I have very curly hair. Thick and course. NOTHING gets my hair straight unless I go to a professional. Ive tried the Sedu, the Solano, the Solia...nothing worked. Nothing but thick frizz. The GHD is amazing! In just 15 minutes my hair is straight, shiny, and HEALTHY!! No damage whatsoever. And the curved sides give you lots of options from stick straight, to beach-wave hair, to 1940s style hair. I honestly didnt think there was an iron out there that could do this for me and NOT damage my hair. This iron is truly worth every penny!!!May 12, 2008ghd Classic 1" Styler

ExcellentThis straightener is the best! While this is a pricey purchase, it is well worth the money. My hair is naturally wavy, and the GHD straightens it perfectly. I have been using it for about 2 months and I have not had seen any damage to my hair--however, I do use a leave in conditioner before I use it. I have used other straighteners but they do not compare to this one. My hair truly feels like silk. It is a nice size and the outer casing does not get hot at all (unlike some others I have tried). The DVD gives great tips on how to create different looks (beach waves, curls, proper instructions on how to straighten etc). You wont be disappointed!May 11, 2008ghd Classic 1" Styler

Stopped Working After 6 Weeks!This flat iron works wonders. Unfortunately, the wonders stopped working after 6 weeks. Im very disappointed in the quality. Yes, it was the BEST flat iron I ever used, but $240 is alot of money for an iron that has a 6 week shelf life.Mar 16, 2008ghd Classic 1" Styler

Amazing!!!I used to consider myself a loyal CHI girl, that is until I found my GHD. Now, I will try nothing else. I have also went the FHI and Sedu route... they were good... but this GHD is AMAZING!!!It heats up in less than 10 seconds and in one single pass left my hair pin straight, sleek, and most of all SHINY! It can do amazing curls, waves, etc. with staying power. I live in a humid area and not once do I need a touch-up before going out for the night (most of the time I can even sleep on it with no problems!).Mar 10, 2008ghd Classic 1" Styler

Very Best StraightenerI have had them all -- Chi (MANY!!!), Sedu, Krembs. The GHD is really much better. I highly recommend this appliance to those who have curly, frizzy hair and want to wear it smooth and straight. This is the first straightener that allows me to get this look at home. Because of the round ceramic barrel, it also works well as a curling iron.Mar 7, 2008ghd Classic 1" Styler

My Hair Found A Best Friend..I want to start this review thanking to my friends from makeupalley, they are the ones that recommended this wonderful flat iron.I have wavy thick hair which I love, however I also love the look of my hair when is straight, I started using a HAI flat iron which worked well until the ceramic started peeling off, then I started looking for a better iron and you all know if so frustrating to decide what to get with so many good choices out there, but I finally went for GHD MK4, OMG!! this is the most $$$ I ever paid for hair tool, but boy!! it is worth it.This package comes with a very helpful DVD with instructions how to create curls, waves, straight mane..etc, I practiced all the styles and successfully accomplish every single one in few minutes each, however my favorite is the straight look, my hair ended up smooth, silky, shiny, straight but not flat..very important fact to take in consideration, straight hair does not mean flat hair.I was a little worry about the iron not having heat control, but after I used it for first time it feels like the iron adjust itself depending on your type of hair, Wow!! how great is that.Is good to mention that not matter what type of iron you use you always want to use heat protector to keep that mane healthy, because is you hair is damaged not matter what kind of iron you use, you will not get the promised results.I purchased the UK version, however US version is equally good per some friends feedbacks.Last but not least..when I use this iron I dont need to pass it twice on a particular section, once is enough to straight, curl or wave my hair.THANKS GHD for creating this amazing HAIR BEST FRIEND.Jan 30, 2008ghd Classic 1" Styler

Big changes are coming to Millersville University in Lancaster County.
Next May, construction on eight new dorms will begin. The plan is to eventually replace all of the university's existing dorms.
The project will take place in phases and in all will take about five years, according to university officials.
The construction will cost $180 million and will be paid for with private bonds. University officials said no state funds will be used.

MIDDLEBORO — Police in Middleboro are investigating after swastikas and obscenities were spray-painted on at least four homes and nine cars in one neighborhood over the weekend.
The vandalism was discovered Saturday morning by an officer on patrol.
Lt. Robert D. Ferreira Jr. said the graffiti appears to be random and not aimed at specific people or families, and it does not appear as if the swastikas were aimed at Jewish families.
There was no word on any suspects or arrests.
Sharon Sherman told The Brockton Enterprise her home and car were vandalized. She attributed the graffiti to kids "just being stupid."
Most of residents hit cleaned up the graffiti on their own.

Oil Kings win 3-2, lead series 1-0
Portland Winterhawks drop Game 1, lose sniper Ty Rattie in 3-2 loss to Oil Kings
Thursday, 05.3.2012 / 11:00 PM MT / News
By Ryan Dittrick - edmontonoilers.com
The Oil Kings won the only meeting of the season between the two teams back on Oct. 21, 2011 -- a high-scoring 8-4 victory in Edmonton's home rink. With the win Thursday, the Oil Kings improve to 13-1 in the playoffs and now lead the WHL Final 1-0 in the clubs' best-of-seven set.
"We're very happy with the result tonight," Head Coach Derek Laxdal said post-game. "I thought we came out pretty good and obviously established that lead, got a couple big goals to widen the gap. [Portland's] got a great transition game with a lot of speed, but I think we did well.
"It's the way we wanted to start the series, up 1-0. They're a good hockey club, so now we need to re-focus and get ready for Game 2."
The Oil Kings wasted little time in getting on the board. Just 1:25 into the game, captain Mark Pysyk launched a point shot that was redirected by Rhett Rachinski past a stunned Mac Carruth.
"I thought Mark (Pysyk) was outstanding tonight," Laxdal explained.
"Their transition game is second-to-none," Pysyk added. "Every time they get the puck, turn it around or get it on their stick, it seemed like there were three forwards coming at us at full speed. That's tough to gap up on, but our forwards came back and helped us out with that."
The early 1-0 lead was protected by MVP Laurent Brossoit, as he made a sensational stop less than a minute later; Nicolas Petan pounced on an odd board-side hop, but his down-the-middle chance was kicked out by the goalie.
While the home side's power-play struggled all night, it nearly cost them in the opening period when a pair of opportunities were squandered. The Winterhawks were then presented with a 51-second long 5-on-3 chance late as Jordan Peddle and Oilers prospect Kristians Pelss were assessed separate minors, but the PK unit stood tall in allowing only a single shot and preserving the team's one-goal lead through 20 minutes.
Brossoit's heroism continued early in the second when he stoned Philadelphia Flyers prospect Marcel Noebels with another quick kick to the wall. He wasn't as busy as he's usually been, but the 19-year-old was sensational once again.
He came in boasting a 1.62 goals-against average and .962 save percentage. Tonight, he stopped 24 of the Winterhawks' 26 attempts.
"LB was outstanding again tonight," Laxdal said. "One of the most important things is that we kept the shots down tonight. We were giving up a lot of shots against Moose Jaw, and this team can generate a lot of shots, too."
Oilers prospect Martin Gernat got in on the action seconds later when he made it a 2-0 game, scoring his sixth goal of the post-season. Birthday boy Mitch Moroz capitalized on a lazy Portland change, driving wide and placing a low shot on net -- Gernat, up-ice on the attack, stepped in and deposited the puck into the gaping cage at 4:59.
With special teams on both sides still mired in imperfection, the Oil Kings made one count at 14:59. Shorthanded, Peddle raced down the near side and blasted a laser over Carruth's right shoulder to set the score at 3-0.
12 seconds later, Portland ended Brossoit's shutout bid. Noebels made up for his earlier chance by scooping up a crease-side rebound and slamming it over the netminder. At 16:39, the Winterhawks cashed another as Flames prospect Sven Bartschi got a piece of Will Wrenn's long-range point shot.
That was as close as the Winterhawks got. But, late in the third, it got substantially worse. Mitch Moroz pelted leading-scorer Ty Rattie with a vicious (but clean) check along the boards. Rattie was stunned, laying motionless on the ice as his condition was assessed. He was then ushered the locker room with a concerning, unbalanced stride.
Winterhawks Head Coach Mike Johnston gave a preliminary update to his sniper's status post-game as he addressed the media. Rattie will be re-assessed tomorrow but was said to be alert and in good spirits.
The St. Louis pick has scored 17 goals and 29 points in only 15 post-season games.
"It was a clean hit," Laxdal said, bluntly. "Rattie was driving wide, he opened up, and it's unfortunate that he got hurt. But that's part of the game. You never like to see players get hurt. And he's a special player."
"Those are hits I've got to make," added Moroz, who not only chipped in with the hit, but the well-played helper on Gernat's second-period marker, too. "I hope he's OK. It's the way I play and I'm going to continue to do that."
Moroz, who's ranked 72nd overall by NHL Central Scouting, isn't all that concerned with the Winterhawks' sure-to-come attempt at retribution, either.
"They've got to stick up for their guys. It's expected, but I wasn't too worried. I can hold my own. If they want to come at me, then that's OK."
Game 2 goes tomorrow night at Rexall Place. Puck drop is at 7:00pm.

FORT GORDON, Ga. (July 17, 2010) - Combat wounds, battle scars, burns, scrapes, and fractures are products of artists and role players tasked to replicate a variety of different medical injury scenarios with the use of live-role players during DoD's largest medical training exercise July 15 - 19 held at Fort Gordon, Ga., and other locations.
Soldiers assigned to B Company, 345th Combat Support Hospital from St. Petersburg, Fla., spent 30 minutes to several hours preparing patients with simulated injuries sustained through combat or different conflicts to be sent out to the battlefield. Outgoing simulated combat casualties have an injury sheet describing the plan of action for care, which is placed in their left pocket.
"This gives me a chance to see what wounds really look like down range and know what to expect," said Spc. Michael Velez, an information technology analyst, who is trained in manufacturing different casualty scenarios from scratch.
Corresponding injuries are cosmetically put on patients using makeup, clay, and different colored foundations to match the patients' skin tone. The clay is molded to whatever shape and any type of lacerations or gunshot wounds. Two types of blood are used, thick, thin and cauterized blood. Various colors are used such as purples and browns to show bruising, and yellow for bruises that have started to heal.
"This is a lot of fun," said Spc. Kyana Stewart, a pharmacy technician. "This is the first time I have done any type of makeup and being able to create something that is so life like is totally awesome.
Observers/trainers supervised medics make on-the-spot decisions while they made assessments on simulated wounded patients. Simulations create a better understanding of how to take care of a patient, which is a huge benefit compared to the classroom, said Pfc. Greg Newton, an X-ray technician. Some of the actors are good and keep the medics thinking on their feet.
"It gives you that real life experience because it's something you can't learn on a computer," said Stewart.

CAMP TAJI, Iraq - A deployed Soldier's toughest challenge may be separation from Families for an extended period of time, but many Soldiers here take advantage of the various forms of communication devices to remain in contact with their loved-ones in the states.
Soldiers from Fort Hood's 96th Transportation Company use the unit's morale and welfare facility or the "Dragon's Lair" to keep in touch with Families and friends back home.
With several months left to go until redeployment, the 96th Trans. Co. Soldiers remain in close contact especially during holidays like Father's Day. Several of the unit's fathers recently reminisced about their holiday traditions and activities.
Spc. Andres Oliver, a supply specialist with the headquarters platoon, and resident of Killeen, said he celebrated this Father's day as a parent and of two identical twin boys, Yandel and Adonis. "Being away from them is hard. I can't wait to be home with them after being gone so long," he said. He will use the Dragon's Lair video room to chat with his boys.
Cpl. Wayne Raffety, a toolroom noncommissioned officer in maintenance platoon, and a Peoria, Ill. native, said his Father's Days are usually spent with his father - Wayne Raffety, Sr, riding their motorcycles and going fishing or camping. Sgt. 1st Class Thomas Wardale, 2nd platoon's senior NCO, and resident of Killeen, Texas, said his two sons usually wake him early, though it's his day to sleep in, and surprise him with breakfast.
He said the rest of the day usually consists of attending church and, playing the latest video games. "Boys just want to beat their father at something.
But they can't beat me," he said. Sgt. Jeffery O'Millian, a Tiffin, Ohio native, and team leader in 3rd platoon, said he usually spends a quiet day with his daughter playing mini-golf followed by dinner at a restaurant. The 96th Trans. Co. arrived in October 2008 and provides heavy-lift transportation support to Coalition units throughout Iraq.

Hi Guys,
I have been invited to an assessment centre with Wincanton, I am just wondering if anyone else has been to one and what I should expect.
Not been able to find anything on their recruitment process.
Wincanton Assessment Centre
|Posted on
I have a telephone interview with them on monday, can you help me people. I guess you both passed the interview, what am i expecting. Appreciate if you could help.
Hey guys, I have been accepted to the assessment centre stage aswell, I believe they might send us to distribution centres, however their website says that they will organize it in Chippenham which is there head office...(I think).. It should be fun whatever lol, i think they will make us do a presentation or some sort of team work exercise, also there could be an interview in there too... regarding the telephone interview as anasaslam said just be yourself, they sound like they want genuine, hard working people so sell yourself and you will be fine .. hope to see some of you at the assessment stage whenever that is lol
hey guys, just received my letter through the post, the assessment is being help in stoke on trent, and its 4 hours long ( 1.30-5.30).. you need to provide them with a photo and someother stuff... looks interesting
I have my interview on monday, lets hop i can join you guys at the assessment centre.
hey rob
i was supposed to receive my letter but then i have gotten an email for taking the OPQ by Penna Consultancy on behalf of Wincanton...i am quite confused...i have been invited to the centre..dont hv the letter yet but have to sit another psychometric test...was it the same for u???
I passed my interview today! Any information on the assessment centre.
hey anasaslam, you will receive the letter soon i think, the OPQ is a questionnaire which you have to complete before the assessment, its 104 questions and it takes about 50 minutes lol, you cannot pass/fail it so dont worry
ahan...my date is 9th of march and i have to go to somewhere at morrisons warehouse....time is 9:00 to1:00....wats the date for u rob....do tell me how it went if urs is before mine
mine is the 2nd march, from 1.30 until 5.30.. i cant wait
Best of LUCK MAN and do tell me how it went for U
Hi guys
I have been invited to the Assessment Centre as well on 9th march to northampton. This one is my first time at an assessment centre.. any tips or ideas on what to expect ??
hey, my assessment went OK i think, we had to do a 1 on 2 interview, which was on competency questions, we then had to do a 10 minute presentation on a case study and then we had to do a group presentation
Thats GR8 news man!! Can u please tell me a bit more about the case study presentation and the group case study?? I have mine on 9th..I am Warming UP
The ppl at Wincanton said that the face to face interview is gonna be for 1 hour. Dont know wat to expect in that. Any tips Rob ?
For me, the case study was about a german company wanting to invest in the uk to expand their market area, and they were targeting your company which was located in milton keynes, but a possible expansion was possible in doncaster, it then gives you loads of facts and figures to digest etc. yes the face to face interview is 50mins - one hour, but it goes really fast believe me, they ask you 10 compentency questions, I couldnt tell you them because i have forgotten, but it was a wide range believe you me!! I received a letter off them today telling me i didnt get the job, pretty **** really. I think i was the best there, all the other graduates werent as educational intelligent as me, but it doesnt matter, Wincanton have lost a great graduate in me btw good luck mate!
I am so sorry to hear that Rob ....Dont worry u will definitely find something better ....
@ Aanand: Good luck for the "big" day and will definitely c ya there
