Car Travel
Endless highways, fabulous scenery, bizarre little towns in the middle of nowhere: Australia is road-trip paradise. Even if you don't have time for major exploring, traveling by car can be a great way to explore a particular region at your own pace. Traffic in city centers can be terrible, so keep the car for the open road.
Driving is generally easy in Australia, once you adjust to traveling on the left side of the road. Road conditions on busy coastal highways usually pose few problems, though remote roads (even big highways) and routes through the desert are often a different story. When you're preparing a driving itinerary, it's vital to bear in mind the huge distances involved and calculate travel time and stopovers accordingly.
Most rental companies in Australia accept driving licenses from other countries, including the United States, provided that the information on the license is clear and in English. Otherwise, an International Driver's Permit is required (but they'll still want to see your regular license, too).
Gas is known in Australia as "petrol." Self-service petrol stations are plentiful near major cities and in rural towns. In remote regions they can be few and far between, so fill up whenever you can. In really out-of-the-way places, carrying a spare petrol can is a good idea. Smaller petrol stations often close at night and on Sunday, though in major cities and on main highways there are plenty of stations open round the clock.
On-street parking is usually plentiful in Australian cities, except in the traffic-heavy CBD (downtown area) of the big capitals. Electronic meters are the norm—you pay in advance, and there's usually a maximum stay, which you should respect, as Australian parking inspectors are very vigilant. Paid parking lots are also common, and are usually clearly signposted. Outside the capitals, on-street parking is usually free, as are the lots outside malls and supermarkets.
Renting a Car
Australia's cities have good public transport, so there's not much point in renting a car if you're staying in an urban area, especially one popular with tourists. Step outside city limits, and a car is practically a necessity.
Rates for economy cars (a Hyundai Getz, Excel, or Accent or a Nissan Pulsar, for example) with unlimited mileage start at A$60 a day (plus fees).
Intercity highways are usually in good condition, but remoter roads—even those that look important on maps—are often unpaved or full of potholes. You can manage short distances on these in a car (for example, an access road to an attraction a few miles from the highway). For longer stretches and any Outback driving, a 4WD is necessary, as insurance generally doesn't cover damage to other types of cars traveling such roads. Only rent a 4WD if you're competent to drive one on tough surfaces like sand and bogs: rescue vehicles take a long time to get to the middle of nowhere.
Rental companies have varying policies and charges for unusual trips, such as lengthy cross-state expeditions around the Top End and Western Australia. Ask about additional mileage, fuel, and insurance charges if you're planning to cover a lot of ground.
Another popular way to see Australia is to rent a camper van (motor home). Nearly all have a toilet, shower, and cooking facilities; utensils and bed linen are usually included, too. Smaller vans for two can be rented for A$40–A$150 a day with unlimited mileage (there's usually a five-day minimum).
In Australia you must be 21 to rent a car, and rates may be higher if you're under 25. There is no upper age limit for rental so long as you have a valid international driver's license. Most companies charge extra for each additional driver. It's compulsory for children to use car seats, so be sure to notify your agency when you book—most charge around A$9 per day for a baby or booster seat.
Your driver's license may not be recognized outside your home country. You may not be able to rent a car without an International Driving Permit (IDP), which can be used only in conjunction with a valid driver's license and which translates your license into 10 languages. Check the AAA website for more info as well as for IDPs ($15) themselves.

Thrifty (800/847–4389 in U.S.; 1300/367227 in Australia. www.thrifty.com.)
Road Conditions
Except for some expressways in and around the major cities, most highways are two-lane roads with frequent passing lanes but no barrier separating the two directions of traffic. Main roads are usually paved and well maintained, though lanes are narrower than in the United States.
Outside big urban areas roundabouts are far more common than traffic lights—some towns have dozens of them. Remember that when driving on the left you go around a roundabout clockwise and give way to traffic entering from the left and already on the roundabout.
Potential road hazards multiply in rural areas. Driving standards, which are generally high in Australia, become more lax. Road surfaces deteriorate, becoming potholed or uneven. Fine sand sometimes fills the holes, making them hard to see. Windshield cracks caused by small stones are practically routine. Flash floods are also common during the summer months in northern Australia: when in doubt, turn back or seek advice from the police before crossing.
Animals—kangaroos and livestock, primarily—are common causes of road accidents, especially at night. If you see an animal near the edge of the road, slow down immediately, as they may just decide to step out in front of you. If they do, hitting the animal is generally preferable to swerving, as you can lose control of your car and roll. However, braking too suddenly into the animal can send it through your windshield. Ideally, you should report any livestock you kill to the nearest ranch, and should check dead kangaroos for joeys (babies carried in their pouches): if you find one, wrap it up and take it to the nearest vet.
"Road trains" are another Outback hazard: they're truck convoys made of several connected trailers, totaling up to 170 feet. They take a long time to brake, so keep your distance and overtake them only with extreme caution.
Outback driving can be exhausting and potentially dangerous. Avoid driving alone, and rest often. Carry plenty of water with you (4–5 liters per person per day)—high temperatures make dehydration a common problem on the road. Don't count on your cell phone working in the middle of nowhere, and if an emergency occurs never leave your vehicle: it's visible, and provides you shelter from the sun and cold. Stick by the side of the road: sooner or later, someone will come along.
Roadside Emergencies
000. If you have an emergency requiring an ambulance, the fire department, or the police, dial 000.
Many major highways now have telephones for breakdown assistance; you can also use your cell phone if you have one. Otherwise, flag down and ask a passing motorist to call the nearest motoring service organization for you. Most Australian drivers will be happy to assist, particularly in country areas.
Each state has its own motoring organization that provides assistance for vehicle breakdowns. When you rent a vehicle, check that you are entitled to assistance from the relevant motoring organization free of charge. A toll-free nationwide number is available for roadside assistance.
Emergency Services
Emergency Services (000.)
Motoring Organization Hotline (13–1111.)
Rules of the Road
Speed limits vary from state to state. As a rough guide, 50–60 kilometers per hour (kph) is the maximum in populated areas, reduced to 40 kph near schools. On open roads limits range from 100 to 130 kph—the equivalent of 62–80 mph. Limits are usually signposted clearly and regularly, and are enforced by police speed checks and—in state capitals—by automatic cameras.
Drunk driving, once a big problem in Australia, is controlled obsessively. The legal limit is 0.05% blood-alcohol level, and penalties are so high that many Aussies just don't drink if they're driving. Seat belts are mandatory nationwide. Children must be restrained in a seat appropriate to their size. Car-rental agencies can install these for about A$30 per week, with 24 hours' notice. It is illegal to use a mobile-phone handset when driving.
Traffic circles, called "roundabouts," are widely used at intersections; cars that have already entered the circle have the right-of-way. At designated intersections in Melbourne's central business district you must get into the left lane to make a right-hand turn—this is to facilitate crossing streetcar lines. Watch for the sign "right-hand turn from left lane only." Everywhere, watch for sudden changes in speed limits.
The Australian Automobile Association has a branch in each state, known as the National Roads and Motorists Association (NRMA) in New South Wales and Canberra, the Automobile Association in the Northern Territory (AANT), and the Royal Automobile Club (RAC) in all other states. It's affiliated with AAA worldwide, and offers reciprocal services to American members, including emergency road service, road maps, copies of each state and territory's Highway Code, and discounts on car rental and accommodations.

Hello, I seem to have an issue with pdf links, as they open in the browser and not in the lightbox, regardless of what I try.
This is what I've done so far, so that you can have a better idea of the issue:
- tried the test links provided in the other topics (http://demo.status301.net/easy-fancybox-sandbox/pdf-embeds/) and I can open all the pdfs so the issue is not with my browsers (Opera and Chrome, latest builds); a couple of friends experienced the same thing, they could see the embeded links in the test site, but my links were opened via browser;
- tried both the class="fancybox-iframe" and class="fancybox-pdf" versions while having autodetect disabled
- tried the plain link to the pdf and have it autodetected
- tried using Google Viewer without luck (even with the code from their website)
- tried enabling the iframe, but still didn't work
Other useful details:
- the syntax used for the links: Title
- I use a couple dozen plugins and I will try disabling each of them to see if there's an incompatibility (most likely, as I think I used all possible options I could think of) somewhere as the local test run was made on a vanilla WordPress install, apart from the NextGen Gallery and the Easy FancyBox.
If you have any suggestions, please let me know. The webpage in question can be found here - MA CEAS and TOEFL links.
Thanks in advance for your time!

How to Create Life Balance Between Dreams and Habits
An excerpt concerning life balance published with permission from the beautiful, newly reprinted Being in Balance, Hay House, Inc. (2016)
The greatest achievement was at first and for a time a dream. The oak sleeps in the acorn; the bird sleeps in the egg; and in the highest vision of the soul, a waking angel stirs. Dreams are the seedlings of realities…"
— James Allen
One of the huge imbalances in life is the disparity between your daily existence, with its routines and habits, and the dream you have deep within yourself of some extraordinarily satisfying way of living.
In the quote that opens this [article], James Allen poetically explains that the dream is the magical realm out of which newly created life emerges. Buried within you is an unlimited capacity for creation, what Allen calls "a waking angel" that's anxious to plant seedlings to fulfill your dreams and your destiny.
True imagination is not fanciful daydreaming, it is fire from heaven."
— Ernest Holmes
I simply couldn't resist adding the Ernest Holmes quote describing this dynamic imagination as "fire from heaven."
They're both appropriate invitations and reminders that Continue Reading
A Powerful Meditation to Banish Your Fear of Death & Endings
This shift toward seeing yourself as an infinite spiritual being having a human experience, rather than the reverse — that is, a human being having an occasional spiritual experience — is loaded with fear for most people. I urge you to look at those fears and face them directly right now; the result will be a permanent connection to the abundance and receptivity of the universal Source that intends all of Creation into temporary form.More

I have a fresh install of WP 3.6 hosted at 4goodhosting.com - the URL is http://middletonia.ca/blog/
The active theme is Twenty Thirteen. I use wp-admin and navigate in the left nav to Appearance > Header; in the "Select Image" area I either "choose an image from your computer", select an image and click "Upload", or I "choose an image from your media library".
Either way, the next screen shows the left nav and WordPress header but otherwise is blank. The theme header image remains unchanged. If I uploaded an image, it shows up in wp-content/uploads/2013/08 as expected. If I select an image from my media library I can browse to any of the previously-uploaded images, but again: next page is empty except for left nav and header, and the change is not applied.
Having searched the forums, I have deactivated all plugins, re-installed WP 3.6, turned on WP-DEBUG and WP_DEBUG_LOG and changed WP_MEMORY_LIMIT to 96M in wp-config.php, switched themes back and forth between Twenty Twelve and Twenty Thirteen -- no change in behaviour. I have tried all these things in many different permutations.
I do not get any PHP errors nor server errors (except 404 when I manually rename files via FTP). As far as I can tell, all permissions are correct and I can upload, edit and delete media images freely in wp-admin.
I have tried a variety of JPEG and PNG images, in sizes of 1600 x 230 (the size used by Twenty Thirteen) and other sizes. In Twenty Thirteen the cropping screen never shows up; in Twenty Twelve it did, but again the change was not applied and the default Twenty Twelve header (with no image) continued to be shown.
I have tried Chrome and Firefox on 2 different Macs (each running MacOS 10.8.4) and tried from Windows as well -- same result.
My background: lots of server and coding experience outside of PHP, some PHP experience; this is my very first WordPress site.

BIRTHDAY GUY: Actor Vinnie Jones was born in Watford, Hertfordshire, England, on this date in 1965. This birthday guy is a former English soccer star who successfully took his tough guy persona to the big screen with roles in such films as "Escape Plan," "X-Men: The Last Stand" and "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels." He's also appeared on episodes of "Elementary," "The Cape" and "Chuck."
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Find a constructive outlet for nervous energy in the week ahead. Conversations, advice and brainstorms might offer useful information or inspiration for future security, but you need a quiet place to think ideas through.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Others will take your words to heart in the week ahead. You'll have instant charisma and people in general will trust you at first sight. Avoid uttering words of love or making promises unless you mean them.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): It's a long way to spring, and you might not be a young man, but your fancies could turn to thoughts of love. You might even have a yen to fatten your piggy bank in the week ahead. Take it one step at a time.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): Romantic moments mean a lot. In the first half of the week, your charm disarms so use every opportunity to get closer to someone. Or use your fabulously good judgment to ask for a raise based on your backlog of experience.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You're running at full throttle and can get a lot accomplished. In the first half of the week, while you're mentally incisive and others are tolerant and forgiving, make important phone calls, offer apologies and put ideas into motion.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Partners and loved ones require some extra tender loving care in the week ahead, but you have the special touch needed to make them smile. Profitable secrets may be revealed, but wait for the best timing to use them.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Outside pressures may interfere with your plans for relaxation at home in the week ahead. Friends and boon companions may be busy getting things accomplished when you'd rather be playing. Don't take luck for granted.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Clear the decks. Slowly but surely you're heading toward making a big improvement in your life, although you may not be able to see it clearly right now. In the week ahead welcome the ending of long-term concerns.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You can figure out how to make your financial resolutions for the future come true in the week ahead. Talk over money making ideas with friends. A love interest will be in the mood for snuggling by the fireplace.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You could be challenged by an urge to go to extremes this week. You may be too focused on getting ahead and forget to say "please" and "thank you." Be grateful when problems fall by the wayside.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Get to the bottom of anything that's been puzzling you. You'll be able to sense ways to make your money grow during the week to come. Your good taste is at the forefront so use it to make a key purchase.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): The week ahead may offer you a chance to play the romantic lead. During the first half of the week, you may be feeling very loving, affectionate and ready for fun. Don't be surprised if unexpected gifts come your way.
IF JANUARY 5 IS YOUR BIRTHDAY: "Be prepared" should be your motto as this year unfolds. A heightened need for attention may urge you to attempt to scale the highest pinnacles of success, or you may become obsessed by making sweeping changes. Avoid borrowing money or making important changes like accepting a new job or moving to a new home in February and March. In May, look for a helpful opportunity that appears in the nick of time, or assistance from an unsuspected source. The people you meet will have your best interests at heart, and whatever you start that month can set the groundwork for large improvements. The best time to change jobs, look for a soul mate, or make an important commitment of love or money is August.

I am 38 years old and I am just your everyday listener who appreciates quality sound. I have been into Hi-Fi audio since I was a teenager mostly full size speakers.

"Build Quality: Not much to say than a solid IEM. The outside is "gunmetal" it looks like metal and feels like metal, but then again. I have been fooled before. The clip ...is just a clip, no deficiencies or poor moving around from it. The L shaped 3.5mm jack is also good. No weird wiggling parts, feels and looks solid.

Our 45th Anniversary gift to ourselves!Posted Jul 8, 2015 on Hotels
It was our 45th Anniversary and we wanted to spend it in NYC going to our favorite restaurant and frequenting old haunts but we also wanted it to be a special night and staying at the St. Regis made it a night to remember!!!! Because we live an hour and a quarter from NYC we usually drive in and come home but decided because this was a special occasion we would stay the night and the St. Regis did not disappoint. The hotel is beautiful, the service impeccable, and the staff friendly, cordial, and helpful. We have frequented the hotel for dinner and drinks often, but staying there certainly made it a memorable night.

accessable roomPosted Apr 20, 2015
Pros: Location.
Cons: Peninsula and Four Seasons are close by,in the same price range and have figured out the little things. St R has not.
Location: Very convenient to 5th ave shopping and Central Park
It is great that hotels have these rooms, however they are inconvenient for a person who does not have those requirements and who would like a bath, these rooms have no bath. We were assigned this type of room notwithstanding that we had paid for an upgraded room, When we complained we were told they would note that for the future.

We've now had 2 incidents over the course of 2 years that I find very troubling concerning alleged late payments & exorbitant late fees. The first time in December 2010, after mailing the payment a bit early due to the holiday season, it arrived and was posted a day late. In no way would they give us the benefit of doubt FOR ONE DAY when we have NO IDEA when the payment really arrived even after contacting Craig Pica, the head honcho, who, quite naturally had nothing to do with the nasty response we received. Again, the same thing has occurred in July 2012. Our payment ALLEGEDLY arrived TWELVE days after mailing and, LLS, after making an electronic payment the day they called to say we never paid and telling us to set up a bill pay with our bank to avoid the fees they charge to even make a payment online (7.50 and 15.00), we ended up double paying when our mailed payment mysteriously appeared the same day as their call! Well, altho they agreed to return the 2nd payment after I READ THEM THE RIOT ACT, they jerked me around for days with faxes and excuses and then finally saying there was NO WAY to let me know the refunded payment was mailed; that I would just have to keep calling if I wanted to find out! Well, turns out there's an email notification but the reps apparently don't know this!
Anyway, that aside, I am CONVINCED that this whole late payment business is a scam! So beware! I know I can't prove it but I just know something smells rotten in Denmark! So, take my advice and DO NOT MAIL YOUR PAYMENTS if you can help it. I'm in for $256 for 2 late fees! The reps tell you like they know for a fact that the "PAYMENTS ARE PROCESSED IMMEDIATELY UPON RECEIPT" but I found out that the payments are received AT A DIFFERENT LOCATION!!! How ANYONE could know when they are received and how long after that they are processed is barely possible. All I do know is that either, a. they are lying or, b. they are incompetent. EITHER WAY THEY ARE WRONG!
Finally, if you do refi, GO ELSEWHERE! Don't be fooled by the "lowest rates" bating nonsense. I'd rather pay a quarter percent more or so and get better customer service. Provident is not a mortgage company per se but a greedy financier that got into the mortgage biz as an aside and has zero interest in meeting your mortgage needs after they rope you in. Again, BUYER BEWARE!

Deciding when to euthanize a sick pet is one of the hardest decisions that we have to make. When my cat of 18 years became seriously ill, my family was too emotional to make objective decisions. In hindsight, I think we waited too long to put him to sleep, but we wanted to make sure that we tried everything to extend his life.

Miguel Cotto: Nothing About Chavez's Win Impressed Me
By Jhonny Gonzalez
In the near future, WBA 154-pound champion Miguel Cotto will have to decide between two options for a potential opponent on December 3 in Las Vegas. Cotto will either have a grudge rematch with Antonio Margarito or move up to middleweight to challenge Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. for a fourth world title. Cotto was ringside last Saturday at Staples Center in Los Angeles, and watched Chavez defeat Sebastian Zbik to win the title. He wasn't impressed.
"We are waiting for the call from [Top Rank] to see what the offers are. We'll see what kind of money is there and then decide. Chavez Jr., fought well, but I saw nothing that impressed me or caught my attention. It would be a great attraction [to face Chavez for a fourth title], but first we have to see the options on the table and we, as a team, wwill make a decision," Cotto told Les Jiminez.
Cotto even admits that he would be taking this fight strictly for the money and not to prove greatness. So why can't his stans admit that too? The only chance I give Chavez is if he can take Cotto's punches…Comment by Hyper Knuckles on 06-08-2011
Sometimes I get on here after coming back from a hard days work just to get riled, maybe get a few laughs from these Pro Chavez dolts. Clearly, some of you people are mad. Chavez JR doesn't need this fight…Comment by locman on 06-08-2011
Cmon people, you guys have to be kidding?? JCC JR. has nothing on his side,That fight SUCKED ROYALLY!!! What a joke ,was worth humm.. nothing Lets see his ass against some good fighters,,someone that actually throws punches,zbik won the fight…Comment by Team Vitaminas on 06-07-2011
[quote=Aracibo04;10661239]I would never say boxing is easy no matter how bad the competition is. However, is not the size of Jr that gives him the advantage, is the subpar competition he faces. I have seen about 7 of his fights…Comment by martin_1995 on 06-07-2011

Landlords beware, because he never paid his rent the entire eight months he lived in the apartment on the lower east side. He and his partner lived for free. Causing much disruption, endless disturbances and even taunting of other neighbors, TODD SPENLA and his partner were the worst tenants EVER to live on Lower East Side. [continued below]....
The police came to the building about a dozen times within that eight-month period, as they were causing disruptions to the entire neighborhood- A result of the couples constant fighting. NYC LANDLORDS BEWARE! Never rent an apartment to this guy. The neighborhood is such a better place without him.

#1 General Comment
AUTHOR: Salvatore S - (USA)
SUBMITTED: Wednesday, September 09, 2015POSTED: Wednesday, September 09, 2015
Mr Spenla's apartment suffered from severe cold and a cockroach infestation among other violations. Following an environmental health inspection the council served notice on the landlord to fix the property. The landlord's family decided to evict Mr Spenla & re-let the apartment instead. It's sad that the person posting this complaint did do the due diligence regarding the true facts behind this eviction and maliciously went on to claim other instances of evictions without any documents providing proof. The percentage of renters in the private rented sector being victims of revenge evictions is rising every year, basically when the landlord evicts their tenants for no reason than that they complained about a problem. With millions of people renting privately, what at first appears a small minority translates to hundreds of thousands. Landlords can carry out no-fault evictions where they don't have to give any reason under section 21 of the Housing Act 1988. The vast majority of landlords look after their properties and arrange repairs when problems arise, but a small percentage of rogue landlords use section 21 to evict tenants in retaliation for them asking their landlord to bring the property up to par. Unsanitary and unsafe conditions such as exposed electrical wiring, severe damp, or serious infestations are ignored, and those who complain about them like Todd Spenla did were evicted. Yet another posting by a scorned ex of Mr Spenla's trying to discredit a good man. The police were called by the same ladnlord trying to compile false records of phone calls to the local precinct hoping it would weigh in with the judge, incredibly enough no reports were ever filed by NYPD.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

About David Frantz
Often when I start painting I don't really have any specific idea in mind. Rather I mostly paint with the purpose of giving my self time to explore what ever it is that I think is good for me to work out in my mind, wether that be difficult or taxing questions or just a linking idea. As I work on my art, the images and associations I have as I see the art is not and should not necessarily be the same thing that people other than my self should see. We all see different things taken from our own experiences. For me often when I bridge two elements of a image together in my mind I often think of the bridge or the link between thoughts and ideas. I hope you will enjoy what I have to share.

on July 18, 2011 - 12:01 AM
A prominent Bush administration official was talking privately about Barack Obama last week: He's probably going to win in 2012, this Republican said. He deserves credit for "going big" in the budget talks and capturing the center of the debate. But why isn't he projecting his goals and philosophy more clearly to the country? Why does he so often seem to react, rather than lead?
Given Obama's strengths, this Republican observer continued, his White House advisers should already be thinking about what Obama can achieve in a second term. They should begin drafting plans and policies, but even more, they should be communicating the president's vision. Instead, every day at this White House seems like "The Perils of Pauline," with one cliffhanger after another.
The debt-limit crisis is a scary example of this tendency to follow, rather than lead. Through 2010, the Obama White House kept its distance from deficit-reduction proposals, and when it finally entered the fray, it was in the person of Vice President Biden. One official told me bluntly last year that floating proposals too early was a loser, politically.
So Obama waited. His policy ideas, now that they're public, look pretty solid. But rather than uniting the country behind a vision for reforming entitlements and taxes, he looks like a man being dragged into church by a firebrand preacher named Eric Cantor. The Republicans look bad, but so does Obama.
This communications gap is apparent in foreign policy, too. Obama may have a vision for why American troops should remain in Afghanistan until 2014, but he doesn't convey it forcefully. This is his war, but he embraces it reluctantly and without clear definition. He places equal emphasis on withdrawing troops and staying the course, which confuses people.
The same is true for the Arab Spring. Obama has had it about right, in policy terms. U.S. strategy is a sensible mix of pragmatism and principle. America supports the movements for democratic change in the autocratic republics, such as Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen and Syria. It respects the more conservative traditions of the pro-Western monarchies and sheikdoms, such as Jordan, Saudi Arabia, the U.A.E., Bahrain, Morocco and Kuwait. This distinction isn't complicated, it just needs to be explained.
The administration's caution on Syria makes sense, too. The goal is a transition to a new, democratic Syria without a sectarian war that would be worse than Iraq's. The administration raised the pressure by sending Ambassador Robert Ford to Hama, scene of the horrific 1982 massacre. The message: This time, the world is watching.
Arguments that Ford should be pulled, or that Obama should throw some fiery rhetoric at the Syrian dynamite keg, strike me as very wrong. That said, Obama needs to explain his vision of democratic transition, and work with the Syrian opposition to achieve it, peacefully.
The world looks to America in times like this. Governments and business leaders want a basic framework, so they can make decisions. What they get from the Obama White House, too often, is silence.
"Just tell us what you want," an influential foreign visitor said last week of the Obama administration. It's a comment you would hear in most capitals of Europe and Asia. Global leaders are accustomed, after Reagan, Clinton and the two Bushes, to U.S. presidents who have a few basic themes and repeat them, several times a week. From this White House they get a big speech every six months.
The Obama White House is blessed, if that's the right word, in having such an irresponsible Republican opposition in Congress. As the debt-limit day of reckoning approaches, the GOP will pay for its reckless, roundhouse swings. But the president needs to start acting like a fighter and a leader, rather than a punching bag.

DWP slammed over 'unacceptable' delays in disability benefit claims
Published by Anonymous for 24dash.com in Central Government and also in Bill Payments, Housing, Local Government
DWP slammed over 'unacceptable' delays in disability benefit claims
The length of time disabled people are having to wait to find out if they are eligible for benefit is unacceptable, according to a new report from the Work and Pensions Select Committee.
The report revealed that new claims for Personal Independence Payment (PIP), the replacement for Disability Living Allowance (DLA) as the benefit to help towards the extra costs of disability for people of working age, are taking six months or more to process.
The majority of people applying for PIP undergo a face-to-face assessment to determine eligibility, which is carried out by private contractors. The report calls for urgent action to improve the current unacceptable service provided to PIP claimants.
It recommends that:
- Penalty clauses in the DWP's contracts with the assessment providers, Atos Healthcare and Capita Business Services, be invoked where necessary
- DWP clear the existing backlog of PIP claims before reassessment of existing DLA claimants is extended
- All necessary resources be devoted to meeting a seven-day target for processing PIP claims from terminally ill people
Dame Anne Begg MP, Committee Chair, said: "Many disabled or sick people face waits of six months or more for a decision on their PIP eligibility. Even those with terminal illnesses are having to wait far longer than was anticipated. This not only leaves people facing financial difficulties whilst they await a decision, but causes severe stress and uncertainty. It is completely unacceptable.
"It is vital that all disabled people, but especially the terminally ill, experience as little delay and stress as possible in making a claim. Basic failures – from appointments being cancelled without notice to unsatisfactory responses to queries about claims – are happening too often. Claimants, and their MPs, have often been unable to get any information about when a decision will finally be made.
"The minister acknowledged that the service claimants were receiving from Atos and Capita – and in some cases from DWP itself – was not acceptable. Whilst this recognition is welcome, urgent action is also required. DWP should not only consider invoking penalty clauses in contracts, but must look at its own systems to ensure that the current dire situation is resolved.
"By the end of last year decisions had been made in fewer than 20% of new claims submitted since April 2013. It is essential that the backlog is cleared before the limited natural reassessment of existing DLA claims is extended any further."

AbstractWhen we try to make the best estimate of some quantity, the problem of combining results from different experiments is encountered. In multi-sensor data fusion, the problem is seen as combining observations provided by different sensors. Sensors provide observations and information on an unknown quantity, which can differ in precision. We propose a combined estimate that uses prior information. We consider the simpler aspects of the problem, so that two sensors provide an observation of the same quantity. The standard error of the observations is supposed to be known. The prior information is an interval that bounds the parameter of the estimate. We derive the proposed combined estimate methodology, and we show its efficiency in the minimum mean square sense. The proposed combined estimate is assessed using synthetic data, and an application is presented.

Description (last modified by ramiro)
Using the admin interface I entered a couple of records for my model.
class TugInstance(models.Model): """This class represents a single instance of TUG in the multi-instance case.""" enabled = models.BooleanField(default=False) public_ip = models.IPAddressField(unique=True) wan_ip = models.IPAddressField(unique=True, blank=True, null=True) lan_ip = models.IPAddressField(unique=True) ready_for_calls = models.BooleanField(default=True) calls_in_progress = models.PositiveIntegerField() default_icp = models.ForeignKey(Icp) def __str__(self): return str(self.id) class Admin: pass
I am using postgresql-7.4.13-2.RHEL4.1 on CentOS 4.4.
I used the json serializer to dump json format of these records.
[root@vmware-espresso teleworker]# cat sample_data.json [{"pk": "1", "model": "top.tuginstance", "fields": {"default_icp": 1, "wan_ip": "", "ready_for_calls": true, "lan_ip": "192.168.1.55", "enabled": true, "public_ip": "220.127.116.11", "calls_in_progress": 5}}, {"pk": "2", "model": "top.tuginstance", "fields": {"default_icp": 2, "wan_ip": "184.108.40.206", "ready_for_calls": true, "lan_ip": "10.33.15.145", "enabled": false, "public_ip": "220.127.116.11", "calls_in_progress": 0}}]
I then cleared the table manually, and tried to load this json as a fixture.
[root@vmware-espresso teleworker]# python manage.py --pythonpath=.. loaddata sample_data.json Loading 'sample_data.json' fixtures... Installing json fixture 'sample_data' from absolute path. Problem installing fixture 'sample_data.json': invalid input syntax for type inet: ""
Seems that there are issues translating the json to sql that postgres will accept.

Looks like it's the blank=True in the field type. Does this mean that I can't have a blank IPAddressField when using postgres?

Seems to me that the Pg adapter is not accounting for this case correctly, and should be fixed.

We found ourselves exhausted at the end of 5 days, as I think most people are following an M-5; however we were totally committed to Real Estate investing. We were so touched by the passion that we saw in many of the presenters. The emotion and tears shared and shed by attendees and presenters was incredible. One of the most passionate presenters was a woman by the name of Jolee Tibbitts. Many many of us were touched by Jolee's message of her Son's Non Profit organization and her own journey. This remarkable message was matched only by the incredible rip off that she brought about for many of us that purchased properties from her, her sister and their group. These properties supposedly had huge equity upsides to them. BS. Here is the BEWARE part. We trusted (yes people still do that and think that someone's word is good) we believed in Jolee, and that James would NEVER let someone into his group who would blatantly rip people off. We were WRONG. VERY wrong.
As I said, we trusted. The last day of the M-5 the attendee's were given the chance to place their names on a list to purchase a limited number of properties that Jolee had purchased from a builder who was going out of business. You should have seen the people trying to slip out of their seats before anyone else did and get their names on the list, very sad. Alas, we were selected and givin the chance to purchase one of these properties, AFTER we made a $5000.00 donation per property to her Sons non-profit. One of the difficult things was that we had to move quickly and doing our due diligence was challenging at best. We did nothing. ABSOLUTELY our fault and something we have not done again. As I said, we trusted and went forward.
We are now stuck with a beautiful new home in Traverse Mountain UT that we can't even come close to selling for what we owe on it; much less get $40,000 out of the deal we were lead to believe would happen. The area is SO overbuilt that the builders are dumping inventory as fast as they can. To be fair and accurate, Jolee did refund our deposit money to us, but we are still SCREWED. James is a VERY smart man and I can't imagine him not knowing what was coming, or at least knowing that many of us were being hosed, and yet he still allowed it to happen.
We have gone onto buy four other homes that are good investments and absolutely believe in the opportunities of making money in Real Estate, and completely believe in investing in an education along the way. But there is NO way I can ever say anything positive about NRI, James Smith or his RE Success organization. PLEASE do your due diligence before investing in any Real Estate education, and if you are ever (at least until you really know what you are doing) presented with a have to do it now or miss out situation, step back. It's just not worth it and other opportunities come up everyday

James Smith Really Is the Person We Originally Thought Him To Be !!
AUTHOR: Scott - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Thursday, November 29, 2007POSTED: Thursday, November 29, 2007
To date, and many months after resolution, he continues to maintain contact with us even though his schedule is one of the busiest I have ever seen.
For us this has been an amazing reassurance that there are good and ethical people in business. But, NEVER be so moved by ANYONE, especially so called EXPERTS, that you FAIL to do your DUE DILIGENCE in determining whether or not a real estate purchase will provide you with the anticipated strategic financial outcome for your portfolio. JAMES SMITH even teaches the importance of doing your due diligence.
Jolee Tibbitts was presented as a real "EXPERT" and the properties were in her home state where she supposedly had a plethora of market knowledge and yet AFTER we owned the property what we found out is that the same development where our brand new home sat the same builder was still building houses (yes, the story we heard of the builder going out of business and wholesale assigning the homes to Jolee must have been a BS story) plus the builder had overbuilt, the market was dropping and there were WAY TOO MANY houses on the market so we were stuck competing against a builder who could easily undercut our price, offer more options on the home, financing incentives, etc. Even so, it was never our strategy to immediately flip the house. We had a Lease Option strategy to hold the house for a minimum of 1 year. Jolee told us that by lease optioning we could immediately get 10% option money up front since there were so many people that had gone BK in the past few years in UT that they had lots of cash but could not necessarily get traditional lending. Not true!! We later learned that we would have been lucky to get 3%. The prices have eroded so much from our original purchase price that we will be very fortunate if the market recovers to our original purchase price in three years.
Lastly, I have a STRONG comment about BIG BROTHER, aka RIPOFF REPORTS. We requested that the comment regarding James Smith be removed from the report; i.e., I wanted to delete the report since we found that he was not the villain that we felt due to guilt by association with Jolee Tibbitts. But, oh NO, apparently, we, the general public, are not intelligent enough to make decisions for ourselves and need to be protected from our own choices by BIG BROTHER. My view, they are exactly what they are trying to protect us from. Makes one think, now doesn't it?
THOSE CHOOSING TO POST TO RIP OFF REPORTS - BEWARE - once you post you no longer have ANY RIGHTS TO THE DATA.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Second topic about wordpress admin panel design. First one was removed. May be, it's not a feedback forum? Oh, no, it is. Then why?
So, those were the most negitive impressions for my six years of using and coding for wordpress.
Hello, design from just-after-millenuum. Ugly fonts, dark and eyes-wrestling navigation... And I clearly remember that there was a plugin for wordpress 2.x which made admin area look exactly same.
Oh, here it is.
But this old plugin looks better then wordpress looks now.
What's with new clean style of navigation from Google and Apple? Why did you return to design 5 years older?
Please return admin style from 3.7 and leave this "design" in this plugin - http://wordpress.org/plugins/mp6/
