Skill Level Appropriate for all
When you're creating shapes and objects inside of Photoshop you have two basic choices when it comes to creating your artwork: to either create vector-based artwork or work in terms of pixels. The first of which, vector shapes, enable you to create what I call flexible artwork, which is able to be scaled and manipulated in ways that pixel art just can't handle. In this movie, I'll be walking you through the differences between raster and vector shapes and objects inside of Photoshop. I've got this file open and on the left-hand side I have a vector shape. The fact that it is a vector shape means that I can then scale and manipulate it without losing the quality of the overall shape.
So for instance, if I wanted to free transform this shape by using Command+T or Ctrl+T on my keyboard, I could shrink it way down and hit Enter to commit and then also Command+T or Ctrl+T and blow it right back up even larger than it was before, and the edges still remain crisp and clean no matter what. Now, watch what happens when I do the same to the pixel-based shape. I'll temporarily hide the vector shape, and select the Pixel shape here in my layers. I'll use Command+T or Ctrl+T to bring up Free Transform and then I'll shrink this down.
Hit Return to commit. You can see now that the edges look fairly clean at this smaller size. That's because objects that are downsized maintain their quality. However, watch what happens when I blow it up. Command+T or Ctrl+T and blow it up. Hit Enter and I'll zoom in a little bit so you can see. The edges are becoming just a little pixelated and not exactly as clean as I would like them to be. It's probably not as evident here on a square as it might be with a circle. So let me undo and let's take a look at the Elliptical Marquee tool.
I'll go ahead now and I'll select my Background layer, grab the Elliptical Marquee tool, and I'll just hold down Shift+Click and drag out a circle, something like this. It doesn't matter how big. Then I'll create a new layer and I'll fill this layer with the same color that I have here. So I'll sample this color using my Eyedropper tool, and then I'll fill the circle with Option+Delete or Alt+Backspace on the keyboard. Switch to my Move tool, hit Command+D or Ctrl+D to deselect.
Now you can already see, since I'm zoomed in, that I'm getting some pixelated edges around the outside, whereas if I had drawn this with a vector tool those would be nice and clean. Let's zoom out to 100% and I'll try to scale this up. As I drag it up and hit Enter, notice how fuzzy the edges are. Not good at all. But let's say that I switch to the Vector Ellipse tool. I'll draw out the same circle, and then I'll use Command+T or Ctrl+T and scale it up.
Hit Enter to commit. When I zoom in on both of these you're going to notice that the edges of the vector shape are much more clean than that of the pixel-based shape. So now let me go back to File > Revert. That'll revert me back to my original document. And so now you can see the differences between a vector shape and a pixel shape inside of Photoshop. Creating vector shapes really enables you to create flexible artwork which is able to be scaled across multiple screens and devices and multiple web browsers as well.
So if you have the opportunity, always use vector artwork when possible. Occasionally, you will have to use pixel- based artwork, and that's okay, especially when dealing with photographs. But just be careful when you're scaling and resizing. Remember, going down always maintains the quality; going up usually destroys it.

Refining the Art of Measurement
By MALCOLM W. BROWNE
Published: March 20, 2001
The National Institute of Standards and Technology: hardly a household name, especially compared with those of the famous federal agencies that deal with space travel, taxes, nuclear weapons, environmental problems, crime prevention and medicine.
But famous or not, the institute, or NIST for short, has immeasurably deepened understanding of things as diverse as electricity, gravity waves, materials, drugs, secret codes, whale blubber and Chesapeake Bay sludge.
This month the scientists, technicians and other staff members of NIST (which is a branch of the Department of Commerce) are proudly observing the 100th anniversary of their agency. The 3,200 employees at the institute's sprawling campus in Gaithersburg, Md., and its time-measurement division in Boulder, Colo., are using the centenary as an occasion to publish new accounts of some of the agency's achievements.
The object of the observance is to show taxpayers anew that NIST earns its keep -- currently about $720 million a year.
Working closely with kindred agencies around the world, especially the International Bureau of Weights and Measures in Sèvres, France, NIST has revolutionized the definition of global standards and the art of measurement. And there is more to do each year.
But despite the agency's achievements, public unfamiliarity with the functions of NIST has sometimes made it vulnerable to drastic cost-cutting measures.
In the mid-1990's, members of Congress eager to reduce federal spending campaigned vigorously to close down the Department of Commerce and to parcel out NIST's laboratories to private research organizations.
Legions of scientists were horrified. In an open letter in 1995, 25 American winners of Nobel Prizes and the presidents of 18 scientific societies protested the proposed change, urging Congress to ''make every effort to preserve this national treasure.''
Both the Commerce Department and NIST survived the assault, but agency officials are still wary of possible new initiatives to pare down the institute.
The nation's need for standardization was strongly demonstrated in 1904, when a conflagration swept across Baltimore, destroying more than 1,500 buildings. Fire departments from cities as distant as New York were called in, but it was discovered too late that Baltimore's fire-hose connectors were incompatible with those of other cities, so outsiders were unable to provide much help.
The standards institute, at the time a branch of the Treasury Department called the National Bureau of Standards, led a successful effort to standardize fire hoses across the nation. It went on to standardize thousands of other things, and today it sells about 35,000 ''standard reference material'' samples a year, with which manufacturers, laboratories and other institutions can compare their own products.
Samples available from NIST include standard spinach (which contains standard amounts of nutrients), standard blubber from dead beached whales (as an index of environmental pollution) and standard Chesapeake Bay sludge -- another measure of marine pollutants.
But a campaign mounted by the agency in the late 1970's to wean the United States away from the traditional English system of measurement to the standard metric system was less successful.
Many American manufacturers have adjusted to the nuisance of using the English system for products sold domestically and the metric system for products sold abroad. But although the United States stands almost alone as a nonmetric country, and despite the consequent disadvantages, even the National Aeronautics and Space Administration continues to apply some nonmetric specifications to its spacecraft. A costly accident in 1999 was one of the results.
On Sept. 23, 1999, NASA fired rockets intended to nudge its Mars Climate Orbiter into a stable low-altitude orbit. But after the rockets fired, NASA never heard from its expensive spacecraft again, and scientists later concluded that it had either crashed on the Martian surface or had bounded away, escaping the planet completely.
The reason for the debacle, scientists concluded months later, was that the manufacturer, the Lockheed Martin Corporation, had specified the rocket thrust in pounds, while NASA assumed that the thrust had been specified in metric-system newtons.
Efforts to improve systems of measurement have a heritage as old as recorded history. Early units of length included the English foot and the similar French pied de roi, both based on the assumption that all kings have feet roughly the same length. (Even today people sometimes pace off a floor's dimensions with their feet; a man's size-11 shoe is conveniently close to one foot in length.)
But in 1670, Gabriel Mouton, a French clergyman, proposed the creation of a new unit of length -- the meter -- equal to one 10-millionth of the distance from one of the earth's poles to the Equator. This distance was calculated during the French Revolution from a meridian drawn between Dunkirk, France, and Barcelona, Spain.

Irish exports turned away from Russia as ban begins
Published 13/08/2014 | 02:30
Irish produce has been turned away from Russian borders over the weekend as the ban on EU food imports kicked in.
There had been hopes of a 'grace period', but it appears that only shipments inside Russian ports by August 7 were allowed to pass through customs.
However, the ICSA have warned Irish food processors to avoid using the Russian ban to talk down prices.
"The reality is that the export ban will have minimal impact on Irish exports. In fact beef supplies are likely to tighten in the medium term," said ICSA president Patrick Kent.
The ban is likely to drive Russian food inflation rates even higher than the 8pc that was recorded for the first half of 2014.
EU countries hit hardest by the ban include those that are closest to its borders, such as Lithuania, Poland, Germany, Finland and Denmark. Holland's fruit and vegetable farmers are also set to suffer, but the €528m of Dutch product is only half that affected by Lithuania, whose food exporters sold €927m of food affected by the ban into Russia last year.
These countries, along with Spain account for three quarters of the €5.25bn of EU food exports will be impacted by the ban, according to Brussels based AgraFacts.
Irish exporters to Russia had already suffered from bans on exports that were worth over €90m in 2013. Last week's move brought the total amount affected to close to €100m.
Industry leaders will now be looking to EU Commissioner Dacian Ciolos to unlock some of the €433m crisis reserve that is designed to help food producers in Europe during unforeseen events.
A task force has also been set up in Brussels charged with scoping out new market opportunities elsewhere in the world.
In additon, Commissioner Ciolos has tabled a meeting of EU farm ministers for later this week to look at how best to target help at individual members states' requirements.

It used to be that when you started your working career you could work the same job until you retired, usually with a workplace pension. Today's reality of work has fundamentally changed yet our policies, especially Employment Insurance and Pensions, remain stuck in the past.
Nearly 50% of Torontonians can't find permanent, full-time jobs that provide benefits and job-security. I hear about this all the time in our community because so many work part time, on contract, freelance or are self-employed.
We are a city of web designers and roofers, artists and consultants, office cleaners and waiters, service sector workers and contract professors. We all face the same issues.
I'm proud to announce that this spring I will introduce a bill in the House of Commons that lays out measures to protect, among others, those who have no pension, those who have never been able to qualify for EI, and those who are working unpaid internships.
I hope you can join me and Davenport MPP Jonah Schein at the launch of our Urban Worker campaign to find out more about this bill and to share your experiences as an Urban Worker!
Urban Worker Strategy Campaign Launch

There will be music from great local musicians and refreshments.
Hope to see you there,

Two weeks I was informed that my order was placed without fixing he name so an amendment would be filed to fix and it would take about a week. Several weeks went by and I finally called them to get an update only to find out that they never filed for the amendment. They claimed that there was a glitch in their systems.
About a month went by and finally an amendment was filed and inward told to receive my files within a week. This was around beginning of July. I had been calling every week since then and they kept telling me that my files were ready and would ship by the end of the week. I was told the same thing for three weeks straight.
I called them today to find out what was going on and I spoke to an agent specialist named Daniel in the escalation department. He told me that hey just received the amendments and just finished putting together the package. This is a different story that what I've been told for the past month. As of now I believe they are telling lies and refuse to give me a refund because they claim they filed my order.
This is really affecting me because I had planned to start me business sooner than this and unfortunately I cannot process anything for my business because I have not received documentation from legalzoom. If you're reading this, please stay away from this company and find another company or process he paperwork yourself. It's less stressful and much cheaper.

So Kimi says he is not paying much attention to the court proceedings looming. He says he wants to gain points on the track legitimately, (yea right). I would'nt worry too much Kimi & all ferrari fans, i'm sure an appeal will see the fia dock enough points to put ferrari about ten-twenty points ahead. After all, ferrari always get their way don't they. So good luck with the championship, i'm sure you'll romp it now.

Today, as I was trying to find information on what to expect in the recovery of the VP Shunt operation, I found this website and am so excited to have somewhere to turn when frustrated, confused, and just generally at a loss for what is going on with my son.
Sal is almost 13 weeks old (born Sept 30) and his shunt was only put in a week ago. I can't seem to get him back on an eating schedule and he is basically sleeping with me during the overnight because no matter how I try, I can't seem to get him to sleep more than 10 minutes on his own during the overnight (he naps on his own during the day). Did anyone go through this? I just don't know what the right thing is, and I haven't really gotten good information from his doctors. All they've told me is that every kid is different. From what I've read otherwise, he's too young for sleep training, and I just don't have the heart to watch him cry in his crib for a very long time, especially considering that he is only a week post-op.
Your posts have helped me feel that there is help out there. God Bless all the babies and their families!

I was told they had plenty in stock to fill my orders yet my orders were always "pending" yet never authorized or processed. I have had my customers yelling at me and I started cancelling my orders yesterday. My last 3 money orders were received by the company yet they still haven't posted them to my account. Netdropshippers has over $11,000.00 of my money and after several inquiries on the return of it, I have heard nothing. This company is a total rip-off and I'm going to have to take the legal route to inform others of their poor business habits and to have my monies returned.

I'm wondering on how I can configure the photo uploads (file upload through Contact Form 7) to have automatic names based of other forms values?
For instance, my user submits their name: Adam Smith.
They then upload their photo to my /images/photos/
Is there anyway that the photo can automatically be named adam-smith.png?
This would be very helpful, I'd appreciate some input.

By Erik Wasson - 02/28/12 03:27 PM EST
The Government Accountability Office (GAO) on Tuesday reported that the federal government has done little to address 81 areas GAO identified a year ago where the government duplicates its own efforts or fails to collect revenue it is owed.
The report set off a new round of finger-pointing by the White House, which said lawmakers should give it the ability to make the government more efficient.
Of the GAO problem areas, only four have been addressed completely: the streamlining of arms-control agencies, ethanol production, explosives investigation and a crackdown on the use of tax deductions by legal, non-resident aliens.
Sixty areas have been addressed at least somewhat, while other areas have not been addressed at all. These include overlapping food assistance programs, border protection efforts, public health information systems and energy efficiency programs.
The GAO also identified 51 new areas of duplication and waste and said tens of billions of dollars can be saved through streamlining. These include addressing duplication in 209 science education programs, 160 housing assistance programs and 56 financial literacy programs.
One conservative lawmaker criticized Congress for not taking action since GAO identified the problem areas.
"Congress has done almost nothing to address problem areas GAO has already identified. This report shows why Congress has a 9 percent approval rating," said Sen. Tom CoburnTom CoburnRyan calls out GOP in anti-poverty fight The Trail 2016: Words matter Ex-Sen. Coburn: I won't challenge Trump, I'll vote for him MORE (R-Okla.).
Testifying before the House Oversight Committee, Comptroller General of the U.S. Gene Dodaro, who heads GAO, said that a special executive-legislative commission might be needed to root out the waste.
The Obama administration sought to paint the report in a positive light while criticizing Congress.
In a blog post, Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Controller Danny Werfel said, "[N]early 80 percent of the issue areas for which GAO recommended action last year, and more than three-quarters of the recommendations for executive branch actions associated with those areas (76 percent) were addressed in some way.
"Congress addressed less than 40 percent of the GAO recommendations that required congressional action (39 percent) in some way," OMB said.
Werfel also pointed out that the GAO report was completed before the 2013 budget was released on Feb. 13.
Dodaro said Tuesday that 14 proposals in the budget could address GAO problem areas. He also said that to be fair to the administration, many of the 81 problem areas introduced in 2011 — the first such report — have been issues for years.
The range of actions by which items are partly addressed is wide. Many involve merely completing studies, starting to develop plans, or creating databases that don't quite work.
OMB points out that others involve "shutting down over 100 data centers to date and cutting well over $1.5 billion in real estate costs to date—and identifying over $3 billion in agency savings to be achieved by the end of the year."
Coburn praised the House for passing a bill to reform job training programs, which he described as the "most fragmented, stupid system I have ever seen in my life."
The senator has offered an amendment to the highway bill before the Senate which would force OMB to find $10 billion by eliminating duplication identified by GAO.

Plants used for Sukkot can be carried on an airplane, the Transportation Security Administration said.
The TSA, which is a part of the U.S. Homeland Security Department, said it will allow palm branches, myrtle twigs, willow twigs and citrons in airports, through security checkpoints and on airplanes. The items and the people carrying them must go through security screenings; the items are not on any prohibited list.
The announcement comes during what the TSA refers to as significant travel days, running from sundown Sept. 30 until Oct. 10, which coincide with the Sukkot holiday.

I wanted to know if it were possible to lengthen the slug the plugin makes. Honestly, the 3-letter slug kind of irks me, probably because I'm so used to bit.ly links having 5-6 characters and hoped this would do it.
I looked everywhere in the settings related to lengthening the slug but to no avail. I dunno.

8 Elements of Comedy with Pat Fraley
By Stephanie Ciccarelli
June 3, 2010
Can anyone learn how to be funny?
Comedy has a formula, and in today's VOX Daily, I'm going to share some of what master voice over instructor Pat Fraley had to share in his VOICE 2010 presentation that had people laughing into the aisles and falling off their chairs.
What Does it Take To Be Funny?
Pat Fraley is one of our industry's most hilarious and insightful people. When you're watching Pat, you never know what is going to happen next and today was no exception. The crowd at VOICE 2010 was treated to not just one but two comedic geniuses when Brad Garrett turned up and joined Pat on stage for the entire duration of the show.
8 Elements of Comedy
๠Pain
๠Pride
๠Deception
๠Misunderstanding
๠Contrast
๠Exaggeration
๠Parody
๠Inappropriate
Pat revealed that once you can recognize comedic elements in a script, you can then realize those elements in your performance.
Comedy is often more about the writing than the characters whereas the focus in animation is on the character voice. Sometimes it's more about the words and the voice merely enhances the script.
The Rule of Comedy
Pat shared that the rule of comedy is faster, because if it's bad, it's over with quickly. The other serious reason is this. Part of the delight in comedy is the hidden transition. You have emotion A and emotion C. The transition happens in emotion B and the audience delights because there is a mystery to solve.
Something you'll want to remember is that the tempo is the speed and rhythm is the drum beat for what is going on. Keep a handle on your speed so that you don't get off track. Timing is everything in comedy.
Comedy Can Be Learned
During the presentation there was certainly a lot of laughter. As the program progressed, Pat stopped to acknowledge that there's an infused joy in comedy and encouraged people to break rules all the time.
Pat expressed that working on being funny is such an unnatural thing to do and you'll need all of the joy infusion that you can get. You might also want to refer to this infusion of joy as "juice" as in getting the creative juices flowing and letting loose.
Enjoy Being Green
Get this: Comedy is drama in fast forward. Drama is comedy in slow motion.
When reading through a comedic script for the first time, you have the liberty to stop and smell the roses. Pat indicated that when you work with people and you're being auditioning by them, let that person know that you are going to read the script as if you're a first grader so that you can realize the rhythm that's in the read and then once you have, you can speed it up.
Flaunt your greenery in your first read of the script as though you don't know where it's going. Read it through cautiously and enjoy the experience of not anticipating where the copy is headed... you only get to be green once.
Insights and Tales From Brad Garrett
When asked how his adjustment was from on-camera work to voice over work, Brad Garrett shared that in some instances, you need to give a little bit more than what is expected of you on-camera, likening the experience to going from stand up to on-camera.
Brad emphasized the importance of pacing, stating that it's really a game of catch.
He also said that in voice over you have to really play your environment. When all the audience can take in of your performance is what you feed them through your voice acting, you need to establish where you are and invite them into that world through your voice and any accompanying sound effects.
Comedy is all about stakes. The bigger the stakes the funnier the return.
Ideas To Try Out
I thought you might find these ideas useful when exercising your talent for comedic reads.
๠Watch comedic sketches online or on television and try to spot the comedic elements
๠Practice with a partner
๠Try to figure out if you play the straight man (more serious) or the funny man better

Thanks for this article. I love to read about the science of comedy. Many people don't think about what makes something funny. This is a helpful mini guide for how to work the funny in a script.Posted by:
Thanks Pat (and Stephanie).
There are some real golden nuggets here.
Love the "8 Elements"... definitely getting posted on my wall!
Timing is definitely crucial. Although Faster is funny in many cases, comedy can occur at all tempos. Sometimes the funniest bits happen because of slow pacing or extended pauses. Cerebral humor, or deadpan delivery. Think of Steven Wright or Emo Phillips.
Improv in front of a live audience is a great teacher for comedic timing. It can give you a feel for the audience, but you've gotta tune in and listen while you're performing. Once you learn timing, it's easier to be funny without the audience... but I still wish I had one when auditioning!
Thanks again - Happy Friday All,
Very much appreciate the update as was not able to attend myself. Always enjoy hearing from Pat Fraley, he's truly amazing. Thanks for taking to time to share some of these wonderful info points.Posted by:
Great synopsis of the session, Stephanie! And it was good to see you there!Posted by:
Thanks Stephanie for taking the time to post this with the busy schedule you must be having there at the conference. One of the classes I teach at Weist Barron in NYC is Sitcom.
These comments and suggestions are right on the money and will be helpful in my future sessions.
Have a great time and thanks again!
Maggie Reed
Thanks Stephanie for posting your wonderful notes! So sorry to have to miss VOICE 2010 this year, so I'm absorbing all the info and the joy my compadres have to share! Thanks again!
Have fun
Thank you, Stephanie. What a wonderful, succinct overview of Brad and my time. So grateful for this and your sharing voices.com's audition offerings for narration jobs for audiobooks. The link is to a few of the many photos of Brad with participants after our turn on stage.Posted by:
I got not a single laugh out of this and frankly, i want my money back. '-)
Oh! Wait...this was free.....HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA!
Seriously, As always, Thank you Pat and Brad for the insights.
The 8 elements are a terrific list! Ahh but where to put them! There's the rub and the reason we need to be in a Pat Fraley event! Wink, wink. '-)
Breaking down the "Science" of what's funny is really an interesting concept to me to begin with. Picture the stodgy Professor saying "Alright, today class we are going to discover the essence of what's funny....or comedic if you will...you in the back with the weird hair; you must know a thing or 2 about this... "
But I still like the old adage,
"If I slip on a banana peel, that's tragedy, If you slip on one, that's comedy"
And Brad, stop standing on a box. We already know you're tall OK?
Steph, awesome as usual.Posted by:
this is the kind of stuff that people pay to sit in on in some siminar but i got it through voices.com thanks it's very helpful when i do open mike standup in manhatten.Posted by:

Corporate Advocacy Program™
We attended a Seminar at the Marriott in Florence Kentucky. The seminar offered us to become independet travel agents, earning commissions, receiving substantial discounts in the travel industry for ourselves, families and friends. All we needed was the travel ID card the company issued. We were also offered a free cruise and other incentives. Unfortunately we fell for the scheme, paid lots of good money and lost it.
We've tried to use the services only to find out that everything was a bogus and nothing we've been promised was true. No discount at any airlines, hotels, cruises etc. We were trying to book flights and hotels. Lots of difficulties to log on their "home-made" website and of course no flights or hotel acommodations to be found. While traveling we showed our travel agent ID-cards in different hotels but no one has ever seen such cards - nor were they honored or valid for any discounts.
The IATA numbers don't work and the cards are just a "make-believe" to rip-off the consumer. Infinite Frontiers is routing all the business to Holiday Planners - the affiliate of Infinite Frontiers. There are no savings - it's just simply a scheme. There are no discounts other than you can find on your own on the Internet without paying these companies thousands of dollars. These companies work well together in this game ripping of consumers. The "free" cruises are not free. The processing fees are so high that any other regular cruise booked on the Internet is a bargain.
We've contacted both companies, making them aware of their invalid ID cards, canceled our contract and requested a refund. The company refused.
They have a no-trial - no refund policy. You pay - you lost - big time!
We have filed complaints with the BBB, the Attorney General's Office and other agencies. We have also filed a complaint with the Small Claims Court in Florence, Kentucky. Obtained a Judgment but we are still trying to collect the Judgment. Everything about these companies is BOGUS. They work out of drop-off boxes at the UPS office in Braanson Missouri. Not even the Sheriff is able to serve papers.
We have changed our credit cards but the companies still have all our other
personal information.
Please beware of Infinite Frontiers and Holiday Planners. Nothing they promise is true. They only steal your money and we totally agree with Pete
"Greg Cato, who runs the seminar" with Randy Sherman" are thieves!
We just hope there is some authority who will who will stop the fraudulent activities of these companies real soon.

He Shoots! He Scores! He Leaves!
Fans of English soccer team Arsenal had something to cheer about Friday when their new South Korean forward Park Chu-young dazzled with a hat trick in a World Cup qualification match against Lebanon. Sadly, the 26-year-old's days with the Premier League side are already numbered.
Mr. Park, who scored 12 goals last season for French team, AS Monaco, has said he expects to return to Korea in 2013 to fulfill his compulsory two-year military service requirement. It's an increasingly familiar predicament as top Korean soccer players are snapped up by big sides in Europe.
Ki Sung-yueng, at Celtic in Scotland, will eventually face similar problems. Korean men can delay their enlistment until they are 28 years old, and generally only if they are in the process of seeking a doctorate. Many soccer players are considered to be at their peak when they're around 28 due to the combination of physical maturity with experience in the game.
The stars of South Korea's World Cup side of 2002, who made history by becoming the first Asian side to get to the semi-finals, were all given a special exemption from military service. That meant players such as Park Ji-sung of Manchester United have been able to compete at the top level into their 30's.
Based on current laws an athlete can only earn an exemption from military service if he wins a medal in the Olympics or a gold medal at the Asian Games (only men are required to serve in Korea). Choo Shin-soo, Cleveland Indians' star outfielder, was almost at the brink of having to cut his major-league career short but won himself an exemption by helping Korea win the gold medal in baseball during the 2010 Asian Games.

- More Than Pride At Stake As Koreas Meet in Soccer Final
- North Koreans Break Weightlifting World Records at Asian Games
- Two Koreas To Clash in Soccer Final
- Pope Speaks at Scene of South Korea Triumph
There's little chance that laws will be loosened to accommodate athletes because of expected public criticism of favoritism, so the issue looks set to surface repeatedly as more Koreans make their way into the major leagues.
Mr. Park's only shot at winning an exemption appears to be if he helps South Korea win a medal at the 2012 London Olympics, but that's unlikely because his national team's best results at the games have been quarterfinal placements in 2004 and 1948. Mr. Park's limited shelf-life for Arsenal reportedly helped drive down his transfer fee from Monaco.
For other up-and-coming athletes, the only realistic alternative to accepting a potentially shortened career seems to be entering military service early and gambling that they can maintain their form by playing for a military or police club, if one exists. Another recent signing for Arsenal, Yossi Benayoun, was able to complete his three years of military service in Israel at the age of 21 while continuing to play in the domestic league and looks set to line up for the English team this coming weekend at 31 years old.

I too plan on refusing any future VE's now that I know better. It just dawned on me today that what I experienced was probably uninformed sweeping of the membranes. It's too late to be angry about, but it's another reason I would be much more vocal and probably homebirth if I ever have any more children.
I know it's a bit premature for a real "decision" on this, but, as an aspiring midwife, I plan to *only* do VE's when asked. I wish I could also do only home birth, but Ontario requires that I attend 5 hospital births per year. *pouts*
This was 10 years ago, but I just read another thread about this and it got me thinking. When I was pregnant with my first daughter 10 years ago, I had my last midwife's appointment before going into labor. She did a very painful VE... and then said that I might be uncomfortable for a while that day. Never specified if she did anything different from a regular vaginal exam. Well, not only was I very uncomfortable for the day, but I bled also. Had the baby a couple days later.
So, is it likely that she stripped my membranes without informing me?

Ranbir Kapoor to star in Mahesh Babu's Businessman remake?
It was earlier announced that Mahesh Babu would also star in the Hindi version of Businessman. But the mixed talks have reportedly made the Pokiri actor to opt out of the project. Hence, director Puri Jagannath has decided to cast Ranbir Kapoor.
If reports are to be believed, Ram Gopal Varma has decided to produce the Hindi version of Businessman. He has screened the movie for Ranbir Kapoor and has convinced the Bollywood actor to star in the movie. There are also chances of Kajal Aggarwal repeating her role in the Hindi version, reports add.
It may be recalled, Puri Jagannath had claimed before that Abhishek Bachchan would star in the Hindi Businessman but his plan to cast the Junior B was dropped following some financial issues with AB Corp. Hence, he decided to rope in Mahesh Babu for the Bollywood version as well.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
by J.K. Rowling
Isolation Quotes in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
How we cite our quotes: Citations follow this format: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #10
"Trivial hurts, tiny human accidents," said Firenze, as his hooves thudded over the mossy floor. "These are of no more significance than the scurrying of ants to the wide universe, and are unaffected by planetary movements."
"Professor Trelawney —" began Parvati, in a hurt and indignant voice.
"— is a human," said Firenze simply. "And is therefore blinkered and fettered by the limitations of your kind." (27.45-47)
Firenze is pretty much the only magical creature we have met in the series so far who (a) does not totally hate humans, though most of his herd does, but who also (b) thinks that we are foolish and beneath centaur wisdom. The house-elves we've met in these novels really do look up to us, much as the fountain in front of the Ministry of Magic portrays. But the centaurs have a much different, more patronizing view. Why do you think Firenze has chosen to join Dumbledore? What characteristics do centaurs seem to have as a group? What kinds of belief systems do they adopt? How are their beliefs different from those of humans? How might their culture be incompatible with human culture? And how might it overlap – what do we share in common?
