South Antrim MP William McCrea has today met with Mivan Chief Executive, Dr Ivan McCabrey, following the announcement that the company is to go into administration.
The Antrim-based company employs almost 300 people and specialises in fitting out cruise ships and high-end commercial and residential developments.
It was announced earlier today (Friday) that the company had gone into administration.
"Obviously I share the disappointment of all concerned following today's announcement and my thoughts are with the directors and the workforce at this difficult time," Mr McCrea said.
The DUP MP added: "As we enter into a new year this is not the type of news that one would wish to hear for the Antrim area and I welcome the efforts that continue to be made by the company on behalf of their employees.
"It is essential that as much information, guidance and support is delivered to the workforce to help them through the days and weeks ahead, and it is a sad reality of the current, harsh economic climate that a company of such world renown as Mivan has been forced into this difficult situation."

text: http://www.gbnreport.com/draftbuzz.html April 21: There are a couple of events to keep an eye on later today. First, Detroit will be holding its annual pre-draft presser and while the Lions aren't likely to give much away in terms of where they stand with regards to who will be the first player selected at Saturday's draft, it is always fun to try and read the clues in the tea leaves. Indeed, there is some speculation around the league that team president Tom Lewand may have let the cat out of the bag at yesterday's ceremony to unveil the Lions' updated mascot and uniforms. With fans in attendance chanting "Curry, Curry, Curry!" presumably in reference to Wake Forest LB Aaron Curry who is considered by many draft analysts to be the safest pick in this year's draft class, rather than the lack of spicy food at the event, Lewand said that the Lions would do what they think will be best in the long-term interest for the team. Given that Curry, along with OTs Jason Smith and Eugene Monroe would be expected to play sooner rather than later, while only QB Matt Stafford, among the candidates to be taken first overall isn't expected to play much his first year, that had people thinking Stafford will indeed be the Lions guy… Meanwhile, Denver officials are expected to be in Los Angeles later today for a very late in the process private workout with USC QB Mark Sanchez. With only journeyman veterans Kyle Orton and Chris Simms left on the roster after the Broncos traded Jay Cutler to Chicago last month, Denver needs to upgrade at the position. And while the Broncos, who have the 12th and 18th picks in this year's first round, appear to have the ammunition to move into the top 10 to get Sanchez, there is some speculation that Denver may not have the cap room to absorb the salary of a top 5 pick… One of the things NFL teams do in the final weeks before the draft is go back to the game tapes of top prospects who have dropped for whatever reason in the pre-draft process. And that appears to have happened with both Texas Tech WR Michael Crabtree and Alabama OT Andre Smith in recent weeks. Both had been considered potential #1 picks overall at some point in the early draft process, but both had dropped, possibly as far as the middle of the opening round. Crabtree, of course, was never able to work out for pro scouts after undergoing surgery to repair a stress fracture in his foot, while Smith plummeted like a rock because of maturity issues, especially after he went AWOL at the combine without letting anyone know. While there are still issues with both players - teams wonder, for example, about Crabtree's mental toughness, while Smith's weight remains an issue - however, when teams went back to the tapes they saw two very productive players. Indeed, Crabtree is being whispered as going as high as St. Louis with the second overall pick and isn't expected to last much beyond the top 5, while Smith seems likely to be selected within the top 10 as many teams feel actually more upside than either Baylor's Jason Smith or Virginia's Eugene Monroe who are rated ahead of him on the OT value chart… Add DII Dixie State OT Ryan Del Rosal to the growing list sleepers in the 2009 draft, although a feature story on him in the Miami Herald may have blown his cover somewhat. Del Rosal is a 6-5, 310 pound prospect who came to fotball late in high school and never played big-time college football because of bad grades, but he's a bit of an athletic freak who reportedly has run under 5.0 seconds in the 40, but can still do 35 reps in the bench-press… Speaking of Miami, the Dolphins are reportedly shopping veteran RB Ronnie Brown for what is believed to be a mid second-round pick. If they did move Brown, the second overall pick in 2005 who has been to the Pro Bowl, but also has had injury problems in his career, the Dolphins would likely to pick a running back early in the draft to replace him.

The staff presented a summary of the feedback received in response to the discussion paper Extractive Activities. The discussion paper was the result of a research project that was conducted for the IASB by a project team of national standard-setters from Australia, Canada, Norway and South Africa. The IASB also received an analysis of possible alternatives for defining the scope of a potential future project on extractive activities, based on feedback received in response to the discussion paper. The Board did not make any decisions at this meeting. Furthermore, because the extractive activities research project is now complete, any subsequent decisions on extractive activities will be made only within the context of developing a possible future agenda proposal.

Who Else Wants A Classy And Sophisticated Band That Has Guests Dancing All Night?
Me, me, me I hear you cry...... There's a common misconception that a swing band cannot keep a full dance floor. It's true, some can't. In fact, most can't.
But The Jazz Cannons can....
Below we've addressed, in detail, this point as well as some more practical stuff. Get in touch if you want more detail on how we can make your event the one you dreamed of....with a packed dance floor!
Q&A Interview with Band Leader Jimmy Cannon
We're nervous that guests won't dance to a swing jazz band
Let's be clear. The Jazz Cannons raison d'etre is ultimately to fill the dance floor at your event. The bands set lists and repertoire have been carefully chosen over years of playing at events – songs that don't get guests on the dance floor don't stay in the set....Simple as that.
The skill of a band leader is to be able to 'read the room' and respond with an appropriate song from the repertoire that will get your guests on the dance floor. So whether that be a choice from the jazz, swing, Latin or pop material the band have lined up, the goal is the same. Its' also worth mentioning that swing music was the dance music of its day. People went to see a swing band just to dance rather than watch.
Aren't the band just great for watching while seated rather than dancing to?
When asking this question you may have painted the picture of a smoky jazz club with guests seated and static just taking in the jazz. Individually the musicians in the band play regularly with bands that do play these types of venues.
When they play with The Jazz Cannons it's a different performance entirely though – everything the band do reflects the end goal of making sure your guests are having the time of their lives on the dance floor. From repertoire choices, to performance dynamic and showmanship, when at a function they play for the function. Yes the band are great for just sitting and watching and many of your guests will do just that and have a wonderful time doing just that.
My guests will not know how to dance properly to swing music.
We guarantee you that this will not be an issue. Many clients think that their guests, on hearing the band play a swing tune, will in some way feel intimidated or frightened to get up and dance. In our experience the very opposite happens.
The rhythms are utterly infectious. Your guests will feel uncontrollable urges to dance. The thought that someone might be judging them as if in Strictly Come Dancing will not enter their frame of thought. The evidence of this in borne out function after function the band have played at.
The bands style of music is too 'old'.
We've put 'old' in quotes because it's a word that has been used in conversations we have had with clients (we say clients as they invariably go on to book the band and are delighted they did) where they have tried to communicate the idea that in some way they see the bands style as dated or behind the times. If you haven't been exposed much to music of this type then this reaction is very understandable. In fact we commend you for getting this far in your search for something unique and different. It's important to understand that The Jazz cannons are not a tribute act. They do not try and pretend to be Frank Sinatra and his band or Michael Buble or any other artist or famous band that plays this style. They do however take references and cues from a retro era when this style of music was made popular. But they do it in a way that contemporises them – Through new arrangements of classic songs, to classic arrangements of more modern songs, humour that isn't cheesy and a charisma and style from within and not copied.
We would like a swing band but think people won't know the songs.
The band only performs classic songs that are known by multiple generations. Remember the choice of songs the band plays is not an accident. They have been sifted and sorted over many years of playing at events with guests of all types.
If a reaction to a song is good, it stays. Bad, it goes.
Granted, people may not know the lyrics to many of the songs, unless of course they are a fan of the artist that made it famous. What they will know is the melody. The melodies to most of the songs are known and have been hummed by multiple generations before us and will be hummed by multiple generations after us. They are timeless. Your guests will not care a jot if they know the lyrics to the song or not. The rhythm of the band, the melody and the sheer occasion will force them into dance floor submission.
We don't want to book a band without seeing them live first.
Check the bands live page for listings. We'd be delighted to add your name to the guest list for any show listed. If you're unable to attend a show we have DVD promo videos that we can send to you. We suggest watching it on a screen for maximum impact.
We're nervous that a swing jazz band is just to specialist, too different, too unique.
The band performs at between 50 and 100 events a year and has done for well over 6 years. Those numbers don't prove the band are mainstream but it does show you that their mainstream enough. Falling into the trap of booking just another 'me too' band is one far too many have fallen in to only to be bitterly disappointed they didn't go with their gut feelings. Booking the Jazz Cannons is really not anywhere near as risky as you might think.
Can I see the swing band play live?
Yes. View The Jazz Cannons live swing band upcoming public shows.
Do you provide your own PA and lights?
The Jazz Cannons come totally self contained with their own PA and lights. You won't have to worry about anything except enjoying your evening.
What band sizes are there?
Typically a 7 piece, 5 piece and 4 piece. Vocals/sax, piano, drums, double bass, trumpet, trombone and sax. The 5 piece is as the 7 piece but minus the trombone and trumpet and the 4 piece is minus the sax. Other band sizes up to a 17 piece big band can be accommodated. Call us if you need more details.
Do you travel?
Absolutely. The band play all over the UK, Europe and even travel as far afield as the UAE and the US.

Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
I have had nine poems "selected" for print. Last year I was sent information concerning a poets conference where I was chosen to resite this poem. I was sent an agenda, adress of the conference, conf. dates etc. I was thrilled! I got a money order and mailed it in for my "entry fees" . When I ended up having foot surgery I emailed, wrote and tried to call to cancel my reservation. Given the circunstances, I there was no way I could go. Noone returned my letters, emails or phone calls.
I never received my money back for the conference, my copy of the publication, or my commenorative trophey.
I had over thirty poems on Poetry.com and this afternoon I tried to go on to print them out for a book I am putting together and the website no longer exists.
No have not only lost money; but I have also lost my work. All of my emails that had a copy of my poetry now has a rectangle with an x in the top corner. I was actually directed to this website when I googled poetry.com. Ironic indeed.
I would like to know if they have published and profited off of my work. If nothing else, I would like my poems to be returned to me.
If anyone has any information on how I can do this, please email me!

#1 General Comment
SUBMITTED: Sunday, October 11, 2009POSTED: Sunday, October 11, 2009
There were a number of websites devoted to arts such as photography, poetry, etc. People would submit their entries and virtually all of them would be notified that their work had been "selected" for publication. The books are little more than vanity publications where people pay in order to be included. The awards don't carry much value in their respective industries because of this.
To put it simply, yes, your work probably was published and purchased by other award "winners" who wanted to see their own works in print. I don't think that you have to worry about them profiting by selling the books at Barnes & Noble or Amazon.
The only thing that baffles me is asking to have your work returned to you. Don't you save your work on your computer? You shouldn't have to copy your poems from an email.
Did they have you sign some kind of release giving them all rights to your work?
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?

Although my grandson is only 3, I'm keeping this first tip handy for when he graduates from high school.
POST-DATED GIFTING: When our grandchildren began graduating from high school and heading off to college, we wanted to give them money each month during their first year of college. So in their high school graduation card we enclosed 10 $100.00 post-dated checks, starting with August of that year and ending the following May.
We knew it would come in handy, not only for the grandchildren but for their parents, too. We figured the extra money each month might avoid a call home, asking their parents for a little bit more. Or it might pay for something that was unexpected.
Our oldest grandson told us many times how he appreciated this. We have been blessed, always knowing how important we are to our grandchildren -- because we have let them know how important they are to us. -- Linda, Nebraska
SHARING BOUNTY WITH CHICKENS: My family owns chickens, which means we need a lot of produce to feed them. Our local grocery store lets us take the produce that they are planning on throwing away. Frequently, this produce includes perfectly edible food. There might be one moldy potato in a bag, but the store still puts it with the produce to toss. Because of this, we end up eating some of what we get for the chickens. Items we salvage the most are potatoes, bananas, lettuce and strawberries. -- Talia, email
CLOTHES DRYING SYSTEM: I have a method of drying clothes that works very well, especially on jeans. I dry the items on a low setting for 10 to 15 minutes. Then I remove the clothes from the dryer and gently pull on the seams and the bottoms of the pant legs. This takes out the creases and stretches the pants to avoid shrinkage. Finally, I hang the pants by the waist to dry completely. This has been working for me for many years. -- Joan, email
APPLESAUCE-TOPPED SHORT STACK: I buy pancake mix that only needs water. From this I can easily make about three pancakes and not have to concern myself with dividing an egg and oil. It's easy to reduce the measurements -- you just do the math. Instead of using pancake syrup, which really adds the calories if you use too much, I sometimes top my pancakes and waffles with unsweetened applesauce. It adds a bit of moisture and a nice, mild fruit taste. And it has lots of good nutritional value, too. -- Nellie, email
TOOTHBRUSH HOLDERS FOR ONE: To hold toothbrushes and paste, each person in my family stores theirs in a coffee cup -- or a plastic cup for little ones. This separates the brushes and cuts down on germs being passed around.
It keeps the counter picked up, and they're easy to clean since I put the cups in the dishwasher. -- K., EC Blog
Would you like to send a tip to Mary? You can email her at mary@everyday cheapskate.com, or write to Everyday Cheapskate, P.O. Box 2099, Cypress, CA 90630. Include your first and last name and state.

Hi guys.
Just bought the "new" 8007 55" 3DTV here in Denmark, and loving it.
I´m having problem with the interface though. The startup procedure seams slow, and the menu selection slow and lagging.
I´m hoping it will clear out with the upcoming update for the TV.
Now for my question:
The possibility of recording and pausing TV using a USB HDD is a great feature, BUT.
It would be even greater if it was possible to use a network HDD, say my 500GB PS3, or my 2TB Time Capsule.
Perhaps a little upgrade to make this an option in the future!!!!

The Dyker Lights, a massive holiday light display in Dyker Heights, have been a Brooklyn tradition for more than 25 years. Every December, neighborhood residents go all out with their displays–it's not just lights, though there are plenty of those, but also mechanical sculptures and large-scale figurines. It's truly a spectacle that's worth an annual trip to the southern reaches of the borough.
The bulk of the lights are between 11th and 13th Avenues and 83rd through 86th Streets, though there are certainly displays outside of that area. If you have a car, it's probably best to drive down, then park and walk around, because the most lit-up areas are pretty far from the train. However, if the subway is your mode of choice, take the D to 18th Avenue or the R to 86th Street. It's a bit of a hike, but there's plenty to look at along the way. Don't forget to grab a cannoli or cappuccino from Mona Lisa Pastry Shop or from Villabate, an Italian bakery that will blow your mind.

Tax breaks for investors put brakes on first home buyers
Page Tools
Peter Costello has got some bad news for first home seekers who have watched the price of the Great Australian Dream spiral out of reach: he can't do anything about it.
Last August, when house prices were surging higher and there was widespread alarm about the fate of first time buyers, the Government ordered the Productivity Commission to investigate what could be done.
Mr Costello said the report of the commission - which received more than 300 submissions - showed there was "limited scope" for governments to improve affordability.
But it did make a politically hot suggestion that neither Mr Costello nor Labor are prepared to touch. The commission found the tax system, especially capital gains tax and negative gearing, had fuelled the house price surge that has left the economy vulnerable and recommended a review as soon as possible.
In doing so the commission has acknowledged an obvious point: if the Government really wanted to help first home buyers it would adjust the generous tax incentives that favour residential property investment.
The tax treatment of property, especially the Coalition Government's decision to halve capital gains tax in 1999, has encouraged property speculation by the wealthy at the expense of those wanting a first home.
The Productivity Commission is not alone in questioning tax breaks for property investors. Earlier this month the Reserve Bank Governor, Ian Macfarlane, said tax laws relating to investment properties were being "interpreted too leniently".
"We think about forms of negative gearing which appear to be so contrived and so unlikely ever to make any cash flow and are still permitted. We think those should have been addressed," he said.
There are several reasons why both the Government and Labor are ignoring the concerns being raised.
The growing pool of small investors who would be affected, especially landlords, would be incensed. About one in seven households have an investment property, easily the highest ratio in the developed world.
Federal Labor would face a massive scare campaign if it proposed any changes to property related taxes. It seems the best hope for those struggling to buy a first home is for a big fall in prices.

**Editor's Note: Click here for a look back to see how some of the biggest names in communications fared in Q3 2012.**
tw telecom inc., which specializes in business Ethernet services, this week reported higher net income and revenue for the fourth quarter of 2012.
The Littleton, Colo., provider also talked about some of its plans for the indirect channel.
First, net income rose to $17.3 million from $16.4 million in 2011's fourth quarter. Next, revenue also increased, by 7.5 percent, from $351.1 million to $377.9 million. tw telecom attributed the growth to higher enterprise uptake. To that point, enterprise customers hungry for data and Internet services contributed $28.4 million, or 10.4 percent, more in the fourth quarter compared to the same quarter a year earlier. Overall, here are the revenue percentage changes tw telecom recorded in the fourth quarter of 2012:
- 15.2 percent increase for data and Internet services, thanks mostly to Ethernet and VPN products;
- 6.1 percent increase in voice services;
- 5.2 percent decrease in network services, reflecting churn and repricing for contract renewals mostly in transport services, which outpaced growth in colocation services.
Meanwhile, Larissa Herda, CEO of tw telecom, told analysts on an earnings conference call that channel partners helped contribute to the company's fourth-quarter results. As a result, tw telecom expects to beef up its indirect channel support.
"We're continuing to add management resources and sales resources," she said, according to a transcript from SeekingAlpha. "The nice thing about [channel partners] is once you get in and you train them... they're kind of like sales on steroids so it's a little bit of a quicker impact to revenue."

Belding City Council OKs engineering and design of 2.2-mile city rail trail
BELDING — The list of local cities that have adopted and installed rail to trail projects within their communities continues to grow.
Alma, Edmore, Greenville, Ionia, McBride, Owosso, Sidney, Stanton and St. Johns have all reaped the benefits of paved recreational paths, all part of one 125-mile stretch, the fifth longest of its kind in the nation.
By summer 2014, Belding will officially be added to that list.
Belding City Council members voted 4-1 Tuesday night to award Williams and Works — a Grand Rapids-based surveying and engineering company — the engineering and design duties of the 2.2-mile stretch of former railway that will become a paved recreational pathway featuring three trestles that cross the Flat River.
Councilman Joe Feurestein was opposed to the motion.
Funding for the trail, which is part of the Fred Meijer Flat River Valley Rail-Trail, is being provided through two grants, city funds and private donors.
In 2011, the city applied for grants from the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) and the Michigan Department of Natural Resources (MDNR), but was forced to meet a match of approximately $500,000 in funds. The amount proved to be too steep, and plans for any design or construction of a trail were put on hold.
In October 2012, the city submitted grants again to MDOT for an enhancement grant and to the MDNR for a combined funding project for the Rails to Trails, covering 2.2 miles through the city of Belding.
The grants required match funding of $159,000, but the city was unable to acquire all of the necessary signed commitments for provided funding of the match.
MDOT contacted the city in February, notifying city officials that federal funds had increased the grant award as long as the city entered the project into the 2013-2014 fiscal year, a year earlier than originally budgeted.
The MDOT grant fund was officially announced Monday at $1,016,a000 and the MDNR grant was announced Tuesday at $300,000.
The rest of the costs for the project will be covered by the city's contribution of $25,000 and $159,000 coming from private donors.
The total project funding is estimated at $1,500,000.
Mayor Ron Gunderson said the future and potential of the trail in Belding is a positive for the city, especially after the difficulties that came before Tuesday night's decision.
"To have actually seen the expressions and disappointment on the faces of the people who have put so much into this rail trail after having to turn down the match, and now to have this offer just appear like this, it's amazing," Gunderson said. "I think this was a great blessing for the city of Belding and will be a huge step forward."
Williams and Works was the winning bidder of engineering services with a bid of $72,000. They were selected by council members over Fleis and VanderBrink, which bid the project at $43,000.
Feuerstein said he was concerned in the difference in costs between the two firms and voted no on the decision citing lack a lack of details in the project submitted by Flies and VanderBrink, stating he wished they had proved more information.
Julianne Burns, who is the official grant writer for the city of Belding, said she is confident Williams and Works, though being the higher bidder, is the best selection of the two firms.
"I believe Williams and Works will give their highest priority and professional service to a very complicated project that is going through the heart of Belding's downtown," she said.
The city will pay no more than the $25,000 match that is required.
Engineering and design will be performed throughout the spring, summer and autumn of 2013, with construction of the trail beginning in spring 2014. Construction is expected to last three months and be finished by the end of summer 2014.
The trail begins at the north end of the city at Long Lake Road and concludes at the south end of the city, ending at Wells Road.
Citizens who are interested in learning more about the planning project for the entire 38 miles of state owned rail-trail from Greenville to Lowell to Ionia are invited to attend a presentation and public input session that will take place at the Friends of Fred Meijer River Valley Rail Trails' annual meeting.
The meeting is scheduled for 7 p.m. March 11 at the Pere Marquette Depot located at 100 Depot St. Belding.

BBC Review
....Manilow still knows what satisfies the committed.
Alwyn Turner 2006
His glory years may have been back in the 1970s, but Barry Manilow is enjoying a level of success in the 21st century that few would have predicted. In early-2006 his album 'The Greatest Songs of the Fifties' entered the US charts at #1 (his first new chart-topper for nearly three decades) and now, just ready for the Xmas market, comes the sequel.
Given that its predecessor managed to avoid anything that's rock & roll, it's not too surprising that this collection doesn't find room for, say, "I Am The Walrus" or "Sympathy For The Devil". Instead 'The Greatest Songs of the Sixties' turn out to be the likes of "Blue Velvet", "Can't Take My Eyes Off You" and "Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head".
It's all perfectly agreeable and decorous, but it's not an album that's going to win over a new audience. It's too predictable, too bland and too inconsequential. Which is a pity, because at his best Barry was able to conquer the heights of melodrama and show-tune excess in a way that had genuine charm.
Here, however, the dominant note is an over-manning more appropriate to the Seventies than the Sixties. There's a list of over a hundred individual credits for the playing and production of the music, and the result is that the arrangements – although drawing heavily on the original blueprints for the songs – sound bloated. Nonetheless, there's a certain old-school Radio 2 appeal to it all, and the huge success it's already enjoyed in America suggests that Manilow still knows what satisfies the committed. Probably just for the fans, though.

In their latest issue, The Enquirer says that Bristol Plain stole some guy from his girlfriend and that they are having a hot and heavy affair. Supposedly this oil worker from Alaska who Bristol has known for awhile came down and hung out with Bristol around Thanksgiving. The guy was supposedly still in a relationship when he did. Meh. They also say that Bristol wants to get married and have a baby next year. Meh.
The one very interesting accusation they make is that Bristol and this guy are having sex despite how Bristol preaches abstinence. Yeah, I could see that. Plus, you know what is the point of cheating on someone if you are going to just hold hands with the other person.

What Mary Magdalene and the Samaritan teach the church
As NCR reported Monday, communities throughout the country offered special liturgies this weekend to honor Mary Magdalene, whose feast day was Sunday. A community in San Diego invited me to preach at its celebration of "the Apostle to the Apostles." Rather than choosing a Gospel narrative about Mary Magdalene, they chose instead the story of the Samaritan woman in chapter 4 of John's Gospel.

The Institute for Sustainable Infrastructure (ISI) has reached its first credentialing milestone since launching the Envision Sustainable Infrastructure Rating System in 2012: More than 500 people and engineering firms have been certified to use the system to plan, construct, operate and rate public works assets to increasing levels of resource efficiency
Public-sector employees account for about one-third of these Envision Sustainability Professionals (ENV SPs). An ENV SP has been trained to address triple-bottom-line sustainability dimensions in project design, construction, and operation.
Infrastructure owners are seeking ways of meeting their sustainability goals and enhance public confidence in the process of civil infrastructure development. Envision meets this need as an in-depth planning guide and rating system used to improve the sustainability aspects of projects. Applicable to all project types, sizes, and complexities, the system has been deployed for stormwater management, roads, watershed projects, water and wastewater, airports, and rail systems.
In 2011, the American Public Works Association, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers launched the institute to provide a sustainability rating system that would do for public infrastructure what LEED has done for buildings.

Rain sprinkled down as they ran through grassy sludge, jumped white fences, ran past horses, through puddles and back to their club. For the Sydney Swans players it was the first five kilometres of many they will cover in their pre-season training, which began yesterday.
Nic Fosdike and Ryan O'Keefe led for most of the time trial in Centennial Park, with Lewis Roberts-Thomson, Brett Kirk, Jarrad McVeigh and Jude Bolton also among the better performers.
As his players took off, coach Paul Roos was posed a key question: did he have the core group of players to win a premiership?
"To win a premiership you need a good midfield," Roos said. "We've lost [Paul] Kelly, [Wayne] Schwass and [Daryn] Cresswell, so we are probably down in that area; that's an area we really need to address. I still think we've got some quality in there with [Stuart] Maxfield and [Paul] Williams and Jude [Bolton] and [Nic] Fosdike, and young guys. [But] that's certainly an area we continually need to address."
This year's draft provided the Swans with two young midfielders, Josh Willoughby and Tim Schmidt, through their first two selections at 16 and 29. Victorian ruckman Andrew Ericksen was selected at No.47, while Amon Buchanan, delisted at the end of last season, was redrafted by the club. Matthew Davis was the last selected at 59.
A fourth-place finish and a preliminary final appearance proved to critics that the Swans group had the talent, but Roos said his side must sustain its development if it is to be any chance. Sure there's more external pressure considering their success last season, but the pressure is also internal.
"We still think we are a fair way off, we got beaten by Brisbane, they scored 6.6 to one point in the last quarter . . . you are always looking at the benchmark teams . . . there's a lot of development within the team still, and that's an unknown," Roos said.
"We know we've got to improve. The danger is when you finish third or fourth and a preliminary, you can misinterpret your list. We've just got make sure you know where our list is at. We still know we're a long, long way behind Brisbane. We still know we're developing, we didn't make any moves in the off-season to get the late 20-year-olds and in the draft on the weekend we picked a lot of the young kids.
"We are still on target to where we want to get to but it's still going to take us a fair while."
Roos said February and March would be the critical pre-season months, considering the delayed start after their finals involvement.
He said he would work on kick-ins and zones and not place too much store on practice games. "You are probably not going to see the best of the Swans until the last two or three practice games."

Breaking sports news video. MLB, NFL, NBA, NHL highlights and more.
Alex Smith's interview with NBC after the 49ers beat the Lions on Sunday night may have been the most amusing part of the network's telecast. As the 49ers quarterback was being interviewed following his 226-yard, two touchdown performance, a super creepy dude wearing a hoodie began sneaking up behind him.
The videobomber appeared to have a credential to be on the field, and at first it looked like he was leaning close to try and hear what Smith was saying. The problem is that he soon realized he was part of the shot and began staring straight into the camera like he was doing it on purpose. The man's eyes grew larger, and his sharp facial features became more pronounced the more straight-on that he looked at the camera. It was like he was staring into our souls!
Thank goodness the creeper was no longer part of the shot by the time the interview got to Justin Smith, because I couldn't handle it for another minute. That was easily the most intense videobomb we've seen since Bubba Watson last month.

STANFORD, Calif. -- Nurse Roberta Harryman -- co-chair and Grad Party guru -- along with nurse Barbara Boyington, has been taking care of NICU preemies for more than 30 years. She said Sunday's party holds a special spot in her heart. "It's so rewarding for me to come to this party every fall and see so many of the children I cared for, who have now grown up and are bringing such joy to their parents and to the world," Harryman said. "It's really an extraordinary day."
With the days counting down to Sunday's NICU event, the guest list is growing. Some years the Grad Party is global, and this year, families are expected from throughout the U.S. western region. There's plenty of entertainment lined up for this weekend, including a magician, a comedian, Violet the Clown, fingernail painting, a petting zoo, pet therapy courtesy of Semper the dog -- and of course, plenty of yummy treats.
"But it's not just an afternoon of fun," Harryman said. "It's really an afternoon of thanks for both the staff and families. You see families from all walks of life bond with one another." And it won't be just babies, children and teens. Some of the grads are now adults with their own babies.
"It's a reunion that means so much to everyone," said William Benitz, MD, chief of neonatology and leader of a neonatology team ranked in America's Top 10 for providing world-class care for approximately 1200 of the more than 4500 babies born at Packard Children's each year.
"The emotional rollercoaster these families endured in the first days and weeks of their child's life can be overwhelming," added Benitz, who is also a professor of pediatrics at the Stanford School of Medicine. "But being with others who have been through the same experience creates a bond that will connect them forever."

Make Family Time Active Time
Summer provides an opportunity for families to spend time together that will create fun and memories. School is out and it's a great time to plan some family time, says Sandra McKinnon, a family life program specialist with Iowa State University Extension and Outreach.
"Activities, such as going to the park or a day hike, are great ways your family can bond and be physically active at the same time," McKinnon said.
The ISU Extension specialist suggests planning family adventures two to three times a month that involve these types of activities. Planning these activities ahead of time gives the entire family something to look forward to. Not all activities have to be grand to be beneficial.
"Playing with your children for 30 minutes a day allows you to participate in your daily activity and bond with your children while watching them learn and grow. You also could plan an hour family walk or bike ride after dinner two times a week. By planning a set time to be physically active, you will be more likely to stick to it, especially if it allows your family to be together. Get the kids involved, and make a list of all the activities they would like to try," McKinnon said.
McKinnon offers the following ideas to help families plan for active time.
- Visit zoos and museums that have free or reduced rates for kids on special days.
- Have paper airplane or paper boat races or try making and flying your own kites. (Look for books at the library with kite-making instructions.)
- Plant a small garden or container garden and watch it grow.
- Have sack, peanut or egg races.
- Plan a picnic.
- Go swimming at the local lake, pond or pool. (Ask for a one-day guest pass at a local YMCA to check out the facilities.)
- Visit vacation Bible schools, kids camps or day camps
- Go camping in the backyard.
- Make your own bubble solution and have fun blowing bubbles.
- Plan a trip to local or county places of interest.
- Participate in free summer reading programs and story times offered by many local libraries.
"With a little planning, you can have a fun and family-involved summer," McKinnon said.

AT&T to work on Maries County cell service
Rep. Blaine Luetkemeyer meets with Missouri AT&T officials
MARIES COUNTY, Mo. - AT&T is planning to work on their cell service after numerous complaints from Mid-Missouri residents.
Rep. Blaine Luetkemeyer, who represents Missouri's 3rd congressional district, met with the president of AT&T Missouri on Tuesday.
Several Maries County residents told ABC 17 News they are having problems connecting to the network despite the cellular phone company saying there were no issues with coverage. They say a lack of wireless service is becoming a public safety hazard.
Officials say the meeting between AT&T and Luetkemeyer was productive and the company will try to figure out the cause of the problem and will monitor the network in the area.
AT&T is also asking any customer with questions about their service to call 1-800-331-0500.

There is a semantic problem here, but not of the sort imagined. Mac OS X users are used to transparency of objects, both on the screen (which is PDF-generated) and on printed output.

Such behavior is perhaps not very comprehensible to the computationally challenged who are used to that other operating system.
I am indeed using Acrobat (or sometimes Keynote) for my presentations,

The goal of the current study was to examine factors that explain the effect of a cognitive-behavioral intervention, the Healthy Living Project, on HIV transmission risk reductions among HIV-infected men who have sex with men (MSM).
A total of 1,910 HIV-positive MSM were screened. Of these, 616 considered to be at risk of transmitting HIV were randomized to a 15-session, individually delivered cognitive-behavioral intervention (n=301) or a wait-list control (n=315).
"Consistent with previous intent-to-treat findings, an overall reduction in transmission risk acts was observed among MSM in the intervention and control arms," the authors reported. They found significant intervention effects at the five-, 10-, 15- and 20-month assessments (risk ratios=0.78, 0.62, 0.48 and 0.38, respectively). These intervention-related declines in HIV transmission risk acts appeared in part due to sustained serosorting practices. MSM in the intervention group reported a significantly greater proportion of HIV-positive sex partners at the five- and 10-month assessments (risk ratios=1.14 and 1.18).

Clothing and accessories retailer American Apparel Inc ousted its controversial founder Dov Charney as chairman effective immediately and moved to fire him as CEO and president following an ongoing investigation into alleged misconduct.
Charney, who has been repeatedly targeted in sexual harassment lawsuits, will be terminated for cause after a contractual 30-day cure period, the Los Angeles-based company said in a statement late on Wednesday.
The company, known for its racy advertising and bright "Made-In-America" clothes, said it named CFO John Luttrell as interim chief executive as it works with a search firm to look for a permanent CEO. The retailer also appointed Allan Mayer and David Danziger as co-chairmen.
"We take no joy in this, but the board felt it was the right thing to do," Mayer said in a statement.
Charney, 45, who founded American Apparel's predecessor companies in 1989, has been at the helm since 2007 when the company went public.
American Apparel spokesman Terry Fahn declined to provide additional details. Charney did not immediately respond to calls and emails seeking comment.
In 2011, a former employee had accused Charney of keeping her as a teenage sex slave, amid fear she might otherwise lose her job. She also sued American Apparel and its directors for failing to stop Charney from acting as a "sexual predator."
The company, which is struggling with weak sales and heavy debt, said the management changes may have triggered a default under its credit agreements, adding that it will be in discussions with its lenders for a waiver of the default.
In February the company had tapped restructuring advisers after it had reached $240 million in debt and had come close to breaching loan covenants, debt terms designed to protect its lenders, according a media report.
The company's shares, which have lost more than two-thirds of their value over the past year, closed at 64 cents on the American Stock Exchange on Wednesday

Recently, there has been a lot of talk about natural refrigerants such as CO2 and hydrocarbons gaining a stronger foothold. Yet much of the talk is related to the possible phasedown of HFC production. And currently, while there may be some talk about a possible phasedown, no actual action seems to be taking place.

Actor Neil Patrick Harris has apologised to the transgender community after he used an offensive term for transsexuals during a US TV interview.
The How I Met Your Mother star was taping a science segment on Live! With Kelly when he inhaled sulfur hexafluoride, which made his voice go uncharacteristically low.
"I've never sounded more like a tranny in my life," he joked.
The actor subsequently received a barrage of criticism for the comment and he has taken to his Twitter page to say sorry for using the slur.
"Truly sorry for saying the word 'tranny' on Live this week ... Should have been more thoughtful. Didn't at all mean to offend," he tweeted.
Harris starred as a teenage doctor in the sitcom Doogie Howser, MD from 1989 to 1993.

If you have any concerns about her during or after labor, you need to call a Vet ASAP. At least call and ask their opinion. Very small dogs like Chi's can and often have complications during/after labor. Good Luck!

Marijuana may be helping to overcome painkiller abuse in America
It's yet another feather in the cap of those who champion legalizing pot in the US.
In a working paper published by the National Bureau of Economic Research (paywall), researchers observed that in US states with medical marijuana dispensaries, the number of admissions to rehabilitation facilities for pain medication and opioid overdoses has decreased by 15% and 16% respectively.
Other studies have looked at the relationship between legal marijuana use and opioid overdose, but this is the first study to track addiction to opioids as well.
Researchers examined the number of patients admitted to treatment centers in the US for painkiller addiction from 1992 to 2013; opioid-related deaths from 1999 to 2013; and the amount of prescription opioids legally sold to each US state from 2000 to 2011. They found that in states that maintain medical marijuana dispensaries, opioid painkillers are being prescribed at a similar rate to those state without marijuana dispensaries.

Mango Haze (Hybrid)
Mango Haze is considered by most cannabis patients to be a great all-around medication, with parents like Northern Lights (25%), Skunk (25%) and Haze (50%). Aptly named, this plant gives off the pleasantly pungent aroma of freshly picked mangoes. One of the most favorable traits of the Mango Haze plant - at least by growers - is how incredibly mold and disease resistant it is. While it is shown to produce noticeably higher quality medication when grown indoors, it thrives fairly well in either growing environment. It is also completely covered in thousands of shiny tri-chromes during the end of maturation.
Obama Commutes Sentences For 14 People Serving Life In Prison For Drug Offenses
Today, President Barack Obama commuted the sentences of 46 people incarcerated in federal prison. This follows the commutation of eight people incarcerated in federal prison for drug offenses in December of 2014, and 22 in March 2015. Fourteen of the people who received commutations today were serving life in prison for nonviolent drug offenses.
In taking this step, the President has now issued nearly 90 commutations, the vast majority of them to non-violent offenders sentenced for drug law violations under draconian sentencing laws. President Obama has been under significant public pressure from advocacy groups and family members of people incarcerated for nonviolent drug offenses who are serving long, mandatory minimum sentences.
"We can't end mass incarceration until we end the drug war. The President's actions today are welcome, but we need much more action," said Michael Collins, policy manager at DPA's office of national affairs. "The public overwhelmingly supports ending the drug war and letting states decide their own drug policies. It's long past time to rectify the US's embarrassing record on mass incarceration."

Northern Lights (Indica)
Northern Lights is renowned for its ability to be grown very easily. The strain's reputation also comes from the fact that it has won competitions such as the Cannabis Cup. The #5 strain was first entered into competition 1989 when several seeds were mailed from the U.S.A. to Amsterdam. The strain quickly dominated the Cannabis Cup, winning in 1989, 1998, and again in 2009. It is a cross of Cannabis indica and Cannabis sativa.
DEA Monitoring Internet Activity in Colombia, Is the U.S. Next?
Dope-sniffing agents with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration are reportedly spying on all of the Internet activity in Colombia, according to a leaked email transmission regarding the federal agency's surveillance tactics inside the South American country.
Last Monday, an email sent by Eduardo Pardo, who works as a Field Application Engineer for Hacking Team, began spreading on Twitter indicating that the DEA has purchased software that essentially gives them the power to Big Brother home computers and smartphones – not just in Colombia, but potentially in the United States.
Hacking Team is a Milan-based tech company that provides law enforcement and intelligence agencies all over the world with highly advanced spy ware. The company, while having made proclamations to not sell to nations boycotted by the U.S and NATO, is suspected of doing business with questionable regimes from Sudan to Egypt.
An article published earlier this week in Forbes reveals that since the company has expanded its offices to Maryland, the DEA and FBI has been working more frequently with the company "as they seek to break common encryption across mobiles and desktops."

We've loved Jeff Bridges unconditionally ever since The Big Lebowski, and we've loved country music since birth. So when the trailer for Crazy Heart arrived last fall, it's safe to say we were excited. Amazingly, the movie lived up to almost all our expectations, even if the ending left a little to be desired--the best country songs always leave you in tears after all. Sure, the casting of Colin Farrell as Bad-Blake-protege-turned-superstar Tommy Sweet was a bit of headscratcher, too, but it's easy to forgive, considering Crazy Heart was successful at the one thing 90 percent of country music films have failed miserably at over the years--capturing the true spirit of the music without reducing it to pure caricature. You can thank T. Bone Burnett, Ryan Bingham and the late Stephen Bruton for pulling that off. But without Bridges' surprisingly devastating singing voice and tour de force performance as Bad Blake--a dead-on amalgam of Kris Kristofferson, Townes Van Zandt and that guy you met once in AA--none of it would have mattered, hence the Oscar. Catch Crazy Heart at 6 and 8 p.m. Friday, 5 p.m. Saturday and 2 and 4 p.m. Sunday at the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, 3200 Darnell St. Tickets are $8.50, $6.50 for Modern members.
