Le Village,
By Justin Trauben
In Kuala Lumpur we stayed in an amazing little hostel in China Town called "Le Village." Part backpacker pitstop, part hippy commune, this place had an amazing mix of backpackers and from all over the world. Everyone hung out in the common area and stayed up late every night exchanging stories over a few drinks. There was one downside to "Le Villiage," a small price to pay. It was infested with enormous, nearly indestructible bed bugs that would nibble away at your flesh while you slept. In this episode, Dan wages war against one such bed bug (watch as it bounces off the wall after Dan's first flick, and returns from the spirit world on numerous occasions).
Bed bugs aside, "Le Village" can be considered one of the most welcoming and memorable experiences of our trip. From the first moments, it was clear that she was not your normal hostel. It is only labeled by a less than adequately sized hand made sign that has no direct line of view with the street, hidden in the center of the maze that is China Town. After being buzzed in through the iron gate, and traversing the sea of shoes and sandals that occupy the two floor stairway, you are greeted by lounging guests, Manu Chao from the stereo, fresh tea, and a frenchman in dreads who, while he properly checked you in and took your money, you'll later learn does not work there. Finding an employee is not hard, but differentiating one from a customer can be as everyone seems to share equally in the work and relaxing.
Backpackers are laying around chatting in various languages, and a girl reads to herself, swinging to the rhythm of the music in a suspended wicker chair, and scratching her legs more periodically than turning pages. The back room is half full of people poking around the refrigerator, pouring free coffee and tea, and watching their laundry spin as though it were giving a sermon. The walls are over-populated with vibrant artworks of entanglement, and before you know it, you're stuck in the whole web. While we only stayed in "Le Village" for two nights, it felt like a lifetime. The nights were spent passing around communal bottles of Pepe Lopez Tequilla while swapping stories from all corners of the earth. Intense games of chess raged throughout the room between people who often barely spoke the same language. Through all of this, there was always the scratching of bed bug bites. Limbs were yours, his, and hers. It did not matter, as long as you appropriately mixed nail pressure and circular motion.
We descended the overpopulated staircase and emerged from our oaisis in the bustling section of Kuala Lumpur, and sourly left for Singapore the next day. We left with plans and hopes to return, and look forward to initiating an entirely new group of victims at Le Village. Take off your shoes, forget you have skin, and jump in.

Come on mods, you closed a thread about how a guy met his wife in church because it was getting too religious. Give me a break. I'm out.
Bye Bye

I think Bumper made it pretty clear in the forum rules BEFORE (and since) you signed-up.....the reason this board is successful in keeping the signal-to-noise ratio down is because topics like this can create dissent and divide the board....the focus being firearms and personal defense. If you feel so strongly, you might find where these two topics (religion and gun) are discussed in a rational manner....and let us know...or start your own board.
I think this board has more to offer...give it a chance.
Magazine <> clip - know the difference
martyr is a fancy name for crappy fighter
You have never lived until you have almost died. For those that have fought for it, life has a special flavor the protected will never know
Bumper started a new board called Conservative Stronghold for those who want to talk politics and religion.

Actually we have allowed threads to stay posted where religious beliefs are directly tied to and directly related to firearms, self defense, & the 2nd Amendment.
The thread that the OP was referring to was not closed because the member stated that he met his Wife in church.
The follow-up comments were all quoting scripture and offering up Biblical quotes that were in no way related to firearms, self-defense, home-defense or the 2nd Amendment.
That is a forum rule violation and that is why the thread was closed and if 98LSWON would have PMed me and asked me why the thread was gone - I would have politely told him exactly why we we don't allow scriptural quotes etc. in forum posts.
Members (of course) may offer up prayers and give blessings in Bob & Terry's Place when prayers and blessings are needed and requested.
Also Please Note:
When you open up a thread and you PUBLICLY post that you will not post or lurk here anymore and that you are "out of here."
We hold you to your word on that and we make certain that you cannot ever come back to post or lurk here anymore.
That is why 98LSWON is now permanently an EX-MEMBER.
So don't say it unless you mean it because...if you are "outta here" we don't want you vindictively coming back in the wee hours and posting all sorts of rule violation crap that we will need to spend valuable moderator time to locate and delete.

Installed a new receptacle, now foyer lights don't work?
I replaced an electrical outlet in the living room (connected to the foyer circuit breaker, however) to one with the USB plugins in the middle. When I opened the old receptacle, it had 5 wires: 2 whites, 2 blacks, and ground. All of them were attached to the old receptacle. The new receptacle only had 3 wire connections so I connected one of the black, one of the white, and the ground and then pushed the other black and white back through the hole at the back so that they weren't touching (I'll cap them tomorrow when I can get to the store.)
Okay, so here's the problem - now the foyer light (a chandelier type with 5 bulbs) and the porch light won't switch on anymore. I've tried fully resetting the foyer breaker a few times to no avail. I can't think of what went wrong - does it have something to do with those two wires I left unconnected? The new receptacle works just fine, by the way, and it's on the same breaker.
Thanks ahead of time for any help!
How many terminal screws are on the new receptacle? and is a duplex receptacle your replacing?
No, it's not a duplex (if I'm interpreting what duplex means). There are only 3 points on the receptacle - black, white, and green. The old receptacle had 5 points. So, if I want to keep this receptacle, what can I do to keep the future lights on the circuit active? Just connect the extra black to the same wire nut as the black going to the receptacle and same for white?
you will need a short piece of electrical romex wire, either 14/2 or 12/2 depending on what is currently there. Cut the wire approx 3 -4 inches, remove the white and black wires from the romex and strip both ends of both wires. Wire nut one end of the black wire to the two black wires in the box, the other end loop it and secure it to the proper terminal. Do the same for the white wire -
Those wires you left unconnected fed power to your lights.
1 Attachment(s)
Does your new outlet look like this?
I did it and it worked. Thing is, instead of the romex wire you suggested, I just put all three ends (black, black, and receptacle black) into one wire nut and twisted down. I did the same for the whites. All the lights came back on and everything seems kosher.
Is it safe to keep it this way or does the romex wire make it safer?
More like this one ?
If so follow Fltdek's instruction it will be very specfic answer there and got it correct at the point.
So you will have to make a pigtail for this device to get the rest of the circuit working.
Two short peices of conductor #12 or #14 depending on what it is on plus 2 wire nuts either yellow one or red one depending on size again.
Once you get the pigtail done the rest of the circuit will be working properly.
Pretty much sums it up, but would be nice if you could post a pic just so we can see what your working with..
The mentioning of USB in the OP threw me off for a minute...although I have seen these in stores and online, just haven't come across them in any homes.....yet

Featuring an all-star comedy cast including Aubrey Plaza, Johnny Simmons, Bill Hader, Alia Shawkat, Sarah Steele, Rachel Bilson, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Donald Glover, Scott Porter, Andy Samberg, Connie Britton and Clark Gregg, The To Do List is a comedy about close friends and a special summer project, loosely inspired by the real-life adventures of first-time writer/director Maggie Carey. Set in 1993, valedictorian Brandy Klark wants to shed her uptight image before college, so she assembles a to do list of all the "activities" she missed out on in high school. Quickly realizing that she's way out of her depth, Brandy solicits her best friends, older sister and burnt-out boss for their help and advice. If the group is going to complete the list by September they'll need plenty of imagination and very open minds.

R.L. Stine's the Haunting Hour
"R.L. Stine's The Haunting Hour" is an anthology series aimed at kids and teens, and inspired by the stories of horror master R.L. Stine. Each thirty minute episode is a tale of horror and suspense, invariably involving a supernatural element. Disdaining gore and overt violence, the episodes rely on sharp story telling and imaginative cinematic techniques to evoke chills, thrills and scares.
Jimmy Kimmel Live!
Emmy-winner Jimmy Kimmel serves as host and executive producer of "Jimmy Kimmel Live," ABC Television Network's distinctive late-night talk show. The show features a diverse lineup of guests, including celebrities, athletes, comedians, politicians and human interest subjects. Along with a light-hearted and recognizable cast of characters, a hip house band and comedy bits in Kimmel's inimitable style, the show additionally offers one of the funniest, freshest monologues on television today, drawing from all forms of topical media. "Jimmy Kimmel Live" often features elaborate, innovative stunts such as having notables like J.J. Abrams and Quentin Tarantino guest-direct an entire episode; traveling the show to Detroit for a week's worth of Super Bowl-themed shows; conducting a special episode from a hospital bed with interviews featuring the doctors on staff of "Grey's Anatomy," as they tended to Jimmy's snakebite wound; and constructing a state-of-the-art performance stage in the center of Hollywood Boulevard to showcase A-list music acts.
The show originates from Disney's El Capitan Entertainment Center, located on Hollywood Boulevard in the heart of LA's star studded Walk of Fame. This illustrious location is featured prominently in the show as Kimmel showcases the unique character of Hollywood. "Jimmy Kimmel Live" airs weeknights at 12:05 a.m. in most markets.
In its fifth season, "Jimmy Kimmel Live" is enjoying a ratings boost and has featured such high profile regular guests as George Clooney, Britney Spears, Jennifer Garner, Robin Williams, Shaquille O'Neal, Clay Aiken, Eva Longoria, Eminem, Diane Sawyer, Lindsay Lohan, Hillary Duff, Jessica Alba, Simon Cowell, Janet Reno, Kiefer Sutherland, Rev. Jesse Jackson, Kelly Ripa, Jack Black, Teri Hatcher, Sir Ian McKellen and Mariah Carey; plus musical guests Coldplay, 50 Cent, Foo Fighters, Blink 182, Destiny's Child, Jane's Addiction, Toby Keith, Gwen Stefani, Audioslave, Nelly, Motley Crue, Green Day, Barry Manilow, Franz Ferdinand, Lionel Richie, The Wiggles and Alanis Morissette since its premiere on Super Bowl Sunday, January 26, 2003.
"Jimmy Kimmel Live" is taped later in the day than other late-night shows – at 7:45 p.m., PT. This allows the show to be extremely topical -- able to respond to the news of the day more quickly than the competition. Kimmel applies his irreverent wit to politics, television, the media, the FCC, popular culture – everything is a target. A weekly comedy segment called "Unnecessary Censorship" pokes fun at the FCC's crackdown on the media by unnecessarily censoring clips from TV news, political speeches, reality TV and nature shows. Other regular comedy segments include Cousin Sal's hidden camera pranks, number one Michael Jackson fan Jake Byrd's "man on the street," feisty Aunt Chippy on location, parking lot security guard Guillermo's Hollywood Gossip Round-up and adorably clueless Uncle Frank's coverage of red-carpet premieres.
Jimmy Kimmel and Jill Leiderman serve as executive producers and Jason Schrift and Douglas DeLuca as co-executive producers. "Jimmy Kimmel Live" is shot live in front of a studio audience and produced by Jackhole Industries in association with ABC Studios.
Modern Family

Hell's Kitchen
Aspiring young chefs are put to the ultimate challenge in Hell's Kitchen, a reality television competition starring world renowned chef Gordon Ramsay. Each of these chefs dreams of fame and fortune, but many soon find their dreams becoming nightmares. Chef Ramsay demands quality and the intensity of the challenges is beyond anything the contestants can ever imagine. Split into two teams, they must compete against each other to provide their very best in the kitchen. If they do, they are lavishly rewarded with everything from extravagant trips to a ride on Ramsay's personal yacht. Those that fail are forced to suffer humiliating punishment.

Local students head to state GOP convention
UCSB and SBCC students will help shape GOP new direction
SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - The California Republican party is hoping to change its image. The state GOP will host its annual convention in Sacramento this weekend.
What party officials expect to see are more young faces. Among them -- dozens of local students.
The party suffered a massive defeat in November -- not only losing the white house -- but also the majority in the state legislative races.
The GOP now accounts for less than 30 percent of all registered voters. Which is why many believe its time for a new direction.
About two dozen University of California, Santa Barbara and Santa Barbara City College students will be boarding a bus Friday and heading to Sacramento for this year's convention, including delegate Brock Lynch.
"In order to gain a broader voter base with youth, with minorities there needs to be a change. That's why I serve on the committee, that's why I'm a delegate," he says.
Gregory Gandrud, the Central Coast's GOP vice chairman says he welcomes change, "I think a lot of young people are re-thinking the role of government and which party stands for what."
During this weekend's convention, delegates will be choosing a new slate of party officers. They are expected to elect Jim Brulte as their new chairman. Many see him as a political moderate. His plan is to focus on what he calls the GOP's core values -- "smaller government, less taxes, greater parental control and more local control."
The California GOP convention kicks off Friday and runs through Sunday.
The state Democratic national convention will be held in Sacramento in April.

Re: Question about Replace
This could be a solution.
At first, the expression should be treated as text, in which the string
"x+y" would be replaced by the string "x". The result should then be turned
again into an expression.
In[] expre=x+y+z/(x+y)+e^(x+y)+w*x+y
Out[] e^(x + y) + x + w x + 2 y + z/(x + y)
In[] expretxt="x+y+z/(x+y)+e^(x+y)+w*x+y"
Out[] "x+y+z/(x+y)+e^(x+y)+w*x+y"
In[] ToExpression[StringReplace[ expretxt,"x+y"->"x"]]
Out[] e^x + x + w x + z/x
I was not able to keep the expression ordered as entered. In fact, if we
manually write the solution, the output obtained is also sorted in this
convenient way. I tried Hold and HoldForm.
e^x + x + w x + z/x

WEST LONG BRANCH, N.J. – Junior left-handed pitcher Andrew McGee (Toms River, N.J./Toms River South) threw his fifth complete game of the season and Owen Stewart (Howell, N.J./St. Rose) and Jon Guida (Martinsville, N.J./Bridgewater Raritan) added two RBI's apiece as the Monmouth University baseball team swept a doubleheader against Wagner with a 3-2 win in Game 1 and a 3-1 victory in Game 2 on Saturday afternoon at the MU Baseball Field. With the wins, the Hawks improve to 19-12 (11-3 NEC), while the Seahawks fall to 12-18 (5-5 NEC).
Stewart led the Hawks' offense with three hits and two RBI's on the day, while Guida added two hits and two RBI's. Kyle Perry (Toms River, N.J./Toms River South) and Jake Gronsky (Danville, Pa./Danville Area) also added two hits, a double and a run scored each. Dan Shea (Wilmington, Del./Salesianum) crushed his first collegiate home run in Game 1.
McGee, who entered the weekend second in the nation in complete games, went nine strong innings, allowing just two runs, one earned, on six hits without walking a batter. He struck out five. McGee set down 10 of the last 11 batters he faced and didn't allow a runner past first base in the final three innings. T.J. Hunt (Wyckoff, N.J./Ramapo) earned the Game 2 win, allowing just one earned run on six hits without walking a batter. He struck out two and needed just 69 pitches to cruise through six innings. Jeff Paglione (Mantua, N.J./Gloucester Catholic) earned his first collegiate save, holding the Seahawks scoreless in the seventh inning of Game 2 on a hit and a walk, while striking out one.
A pair of Wagner pitchers threw complete games, but took losses on Saturday. Ryan Casey went eight innings in Game 1, allowing three earned runs on six hits and a walk. He struck out one. Matt Morris went six innings in Game 2, allowing three runs, one earned, on seven hits and two walks. He struck out one. Ian Miller led Wagner offensively with four hits, while Jayson Keel added three hits. Shaun Flynn had two hits, while Chris Smith, Nick Dini and Nick Alfano knocked in the three Seahawks runs on the day, scored by Miller, Smith and Dini.
All the scoring in Game 1 took place in the sixth inning. Wagner struck first for two runs. Smith reached on a throwing error and after Dini had a would-be triple ruled foul, he returned to the plate and tripled to left center, scoring Smith. Dini then scored on an Alfano sacrifice fly.
In the bottom half of the inning, Shea led off with a lined shot over the right field wall to cut the deficit in half. After Perry doubled and Gronsky reached with a one-out hit-by-pitch, Chris Perret's (Morris Plains, N.J./Morris Catholic) groundout to first moved the runners to second and third. Stewart then sent a line drive past the third baseman for a two-out, two-run single that proved to be the difference in the game.
In the first inning of Game 2, the Hawks pieced together a run with a two-out rally. Perret and Stewart had consecutive singles through the right side and Bamford drew a walk to load the bases. Guida then grounded to third, but the ball took a tricky hop that Wagner third baseman Ben Ruta managed to stop on a dive, but he was left with no play. Perret scored on the play to give Monmouth a 1-0 lead.
The Seahawks drew even in the third with a two-out rally. Miller got things started with a single and scored on Smith's double down the left field line. But again, the Hawks immediately responded to a Wagner run with a run of their own. Morris recorded the first two outs of the inning, before Bamford reached on an error to prolong the inning. Guida doubled to deep center to drive in his and the Hawks' second run of the game.
The Hawks added an insurance run in the fifth when Perret reached on an error, moved to second on a Stewart sacrifice bunt, and scored on another error to push the advantage to 3-1. Hunt and Paglione would record three outs each to cement the win.
Monmouth concludes its Northeast Conference series with Wagner with another doubleheader on Sunday. First pitch from MU Baseball Field is scheduled for noon.

Reviews for World's Best Lemon Pie
"Have tried other recipes, always come back to this."

"Easy to make and very good."
"Absolutely my favorite lemon meringue pie recipe!! I've made it several times and it always turns out perfect! My husband loves it!"
"Was delicious!! First time i ever made a lemon pie from scratch, was easy and sooo good! I used fresh squeezed lemon juice, i also used a graham cracker crumb crust instead of a pastry. Very delicious!"
"I used 1/2 cup of lemon ,we like it sour.sogome"

()()))((()))((()))((()))((()))((()))((()))()() REVENGE ============= Hey, my name is Adam Chambers, and I'm 16 years old. I have blue eyes, dirty blonde, curly hair, mother and daughter pthc good smile, nice body, average weight and height for a 16 year old, and in good physical shape, considering I work out at the gym after school. People have told me that I look like a pthc pedo sex porn younger version of Ryan Phillippe. I like that, considering that he is ultra hott. I didn't really notice my sexuality until I was imageboard rules repost pthc about 14. You're probably wondering how that's possible. I've always noticed girls, but on my beach vacation I got on my 14th birthday, pthc sexforsure there was this way hott guy at the indoor pool.***He looked to be about 17 at the time, and he had a body that could kill. He had to be on the football, pthc ukraine dorki soccer and basketball team to have a super sexy body like that. He had black hair, perfect teens pthc chest, beautiful nipples, awesome 6-pack, blue eyes, sexy thighs, wonderful index child pthc newsgroups legs, everything. But the downside was that he was with his girlfriend. They were splashing around in the pool together, having a blast. The room was gigantic, with a huge hot tub in the right hand corner, a children's pool in the other right hand corner, and a large adult pool with a diving board on nn pants pthc the entire left side, along pedo incest pthc with a lounge pthc mp3 area. The pool was empty exept for the stud, his girlfriend, 2 kids in the children's pool, and a woman in the hot tub. I wanted him to notice me, despite the girl he was with. I had to make an entrance. I noticed I was standing in the doorway staring at this guy, so I snapped out of it just in time, before anyone could notice. With a plan set in my head, I put it in motion. I went over to the pthc rapishare lounge area and put my towel and flip flops on one of the tables. I pthc young girls watched the guy in the corner of my eye as I approached pthc fuck vid the diving board. I thought I saw him look at me, but if he kiddie porn pthc bbs did, he turned away really fast. I usually don't like to show pthc st petersburg off my body or what I can do, but opportunity calls! I climbed up pthc fake the diving board and stood at the edge. I waited just long enough to make sure he noticed me, and then dived in. I did a double front flip and ended with a cannon ball. When I hit the water, it splashed everywhere and totally soaked him and pthc sluts his girlfriend! I heard screams from underwater, but when I came up, imgboardphp pthc I was surprised to see that his girlfriend was laughing."Cool, dude! How'd you do that?" she asked, amazed."It's imagevenue pthc easy, once you get the hang of it." I said as casually as I could. If I got his girlfriend's attention, I had to have his too."You totally got me soaked!" she laughed. I smirked."Sorry, I didn't mean to.""That's ok." she replied. She laughed and resumed pthc cgiboard talking to her boyfriend / the 100 top pthc stud. I pthc fuck livedoor was dissapointed that he didn't say megaupload pthc anything or even really look at me. They turned their backs to me as I dived underwater and swam around. A little while later, pthc vids tgp the dude got out of the pool and went around to the diving board. I tried not to stare, and it took all the energy I had in me! I casually glanced over at him and he was hott! His silky black swimming trunks stuck to his dick little pthc pics and it gave me a fine vision of how it looked. He was so totally hott! Dripping wet, grinning, his dick imprint showing, everything. I put on my goggles and got ready to do the unthinkable. As he dove off of the board, I held my breath and went underwater. He went under almost immediately after. pay pthc He had his eyes closed as he sunk to the bottom of the pool. Then he swan upward, and the force of the water pushing down on his trunks made them fall partly downward, revealing his beautiful ass! Although I only saw half of it, I pthc and bbs could picture how perfect the rest of it was. I swam upward and I was really getting hard! I decided that before I go totally crazy over this guy, I better leave. So I onion tor pthc got out of the pool, dried off a little, tied the towel around my waist and headed to the elevator. I was about to go to my room on the 8th floor, but I realized that I really zeps ranchi pthc toplist needed to use the bathroom, pthc storys and maybe even jack off. So I made a u-turn and went pedo pthc children porno to the restrooms. The restroom was large and really nice. It smelled like oranges. I went into one of the stalls and started to pee. My nice sized, half-hard, 4 inch, cut dick looked pthc boners good on me. It went vicky r ygold pthc well with my one-of-a-kind body. I was finishing up when I heard the door oped to the bathroom. I stepped out of the stall just as the toilet was flushing (it was an automatic flushing toilet). To my surprise, I noticed that it was the guy from the pool! He was at one of kidz bbs pthc the urinals, handling his business, as I looked at his upper-butt. It was exposed oldlounge pthc to the public, and he was dripping wet. I got so hard! My dick shot to pthc suck cock its full size, 7 inches. I noticed he was pulling his trunks up and I quickly turned around and washed my hands. I looked up at the mirror in front of the sink vip pthc and saw him undressing me with his eyes. I felt his stare on me. He looked at my back, then my butt, and then went to my legs. Obviously, he liked what he saw. I thought it wasn't possible for me to get any harder than I already was, but I was so dawn wrong! I was so hard that it hurt. I turned off the water and slowly turned around and looked at him. I pretended to be surprised."Oh, sorry - pthc laura 0609 didn't see you there." I said, but he didn't seem to hear me. His eyes were locked on my chest and my noticeable hard-on. He snapped out of it and said;"Oh, so-sorry, I was just, um, well, I couldn't help it. You look so good, standing there like that, gosh!" he said. I thought I still by carl pthc had water in my ears. Did he just say what I thought he did? I was speechless."Well, um, top pthc galleries I kinda noticed you too, I guess," I stammered. I was nervous as hell. He took a step closer to me and slowly put his hand pthc morenitas on my shoulder. I shivered."Sorry, I shouldn't... I should go." he said as he turned towards the door. I stopped him by grabbing his hand. I was so high on adrenaline that pthc youtube I could've done anything at that moment. He looked down at me and grinned. love pedo board pthc He wasn't much taller i need pthc now than me, though. He began to run his hands pthc galleries nn down my wet chest and slowly pulled my towel down. As it dropped to my feet, he looked at my face. I had my eyes closed and was in total ecstasy."Maybe I shouldn't do this--" he said, but I interrupted."Please, don't stop. We'll think of it as a birthday gift." I said."Its your birthday?" find pthc he asked."Yeah.""Well, this will be the best birthday you ever had!" he said. That got me totally excited. He pulled at pthc girls sesy the elastic waistband of my dark red Tommy Hillfiger trunks. He pulled them off of me and rss pthc revealed my hard prick."Whoa! How old are you?" he asked, stunned."Turned 14 today!" I announced."You have a really big dick for your age, but pthc bbs russian lordofthering that just makes it even better!" he said. He began stroking my cock and it felt so good to have someone else's hand sandra board pthc on my dick. pthc group I almost collapsed from the excitement, so he suggested that we go into a stall. What kind of a person would I be if I refused? He took my hand and we went pthc illegal sites into the very last stall. real pthc image board He locked the door and got on his knees in front of me. I wanted to scream so badly - I knew what was gonna happen to me. I've heard of blow gateways pthc jobs, but never saw or had one before! He licked and sucked on my cockhead and I was in ecstasy! I moaned and leaned against the wall. pthc free pics cp He soon took ALL of private ftp pthc me in and it felt so wonderful! I looked down at him and the sight of his head between my legs mother pthc almost triggered bbs forum pthc an ultimate cumming sensation! kleines m dchen pthc I managed to hold it a little longer. I was moaning and noticed that he was too. He was an expert in the cocksucking department. He sucked up and down my cock like a madman!"Eeerrrggghhh!!!!" I squealed as I shot the biggest, most powerful load of my life! It seemed like it lasted a full minute! By the time I emptied my balls and stopped squealing, his mouth was totally filled with my teen cream, some even dripping out of his mouth! I slid my dick out and stood there. He put some of my cum on his fingers and swallowed the rest."That was great! The biggest I ever came in my pthc indian li--" I was silenced with a big french cgiworld pthc sven kiss. He had his tongue in my mouth and was going crazy! We were having the time of our lives! I massaged my tongue with his and his towel and trunks fell down. His hard dick was pressed imgboard bbs pthc against my stomach, and that turned me on times 10! His arms were wrapped around me pthc emule and I could taste my cum from his mouth. asterix pthc post I started to play dirty collection pthc with his dick and that triggered a whole new activity. He sat on the toilet and began to jack off, but I stopped him."Can I help?" pthc pic post I asked."Sure, if you're up for it..." he offered."Ok!" I reached over and pthc underage sex started to stroke him, but he stopped me."No, help me in another way." he said. So I tilted my head foward and started world pthc to suck on his dick like he did me, but no luck."As good as that feels, kid, I want help in another way." he said, smirking. I sat there, puzzled, but he instructed me russian pthc pedo nude to come over and sit in his lap. I stood up and admired his naked body. Gosh, the bod childfucking pthc littlepussy on that beautiful bod sent my dick in a frenzy. I walked over to him and watched him rub my cum from his fingures ls pthc info onto superguide 2005 sven pthc his dick as lube. I knew what he wanted to do, and anything he wanted, I would give to him. I sat on his lap and he rubbed his slick dick up and down my crack, looking for my virgin hole. He found it and began free picture pthc to push it in me. I squirmed and pleaded for him to stop, but he insured pthc mafia me that it would feel better soon. His 9 inch, thick, cut cock hurt like top pthc paysites hell trying to enter me. Suddenly, a sharp pain on my right earlobe made me scream out and his cock slid right in."What did you do that for?" I 3d video pthc asked, about to cry."It's a torrent cp pthc little trick I picked up. It made your hole open up, didn't it?" he laughed. He was right."Look at my earlobe." he said to me. I looked and saw that he illegal ru pthc tgp had a bitemark on his ear."How long ago did you get pthc lsm video angel that?" I asked."About a month ago. That's when I had my first fuck, with a guy, that is." he said. He started to pump in and tgp angels pthc bbs out of my ass, and it tgp pthc hurt at first, but got better. Soon I was begging for more - begging him to go faster and harder. We were both moaning in rhythm with his pumps. Soon, he grabbed me really tight and screamed out as he squirted almost 15 shots of cum in my ass. I was in heaven by then. I just sat there, in his lap, as filefactory pthc his bear hug on me never loosened. I needed relied again, and he reached over and jacked me off, as if he read my mind. It only pedo girls pthc bbs took about a minute for me to shoot my load all over us. Unwillingly, I got up. He pulled me over to him and planted a big wet one on my lips. I jumped back in his lap and threw one arm around his neck and played with his body with the other."I didn't catch your name." I said."I never threw it," he said, pthc cp real kids grinning, "but its Devon Edmonds.""Mine is pthc reporting videos Adam. Adam Chambers." I said. "That was fun.""Yeah, I know." he said, kissing me on top of my free pthc movies head."I wanted you from the minute I saw you, but you never seemed to notice me." I said."Oh, I noticed you, but I was afraid that if I looked at you a pthc daphne d52 lot, I'd end up staring and getting hard. You kinda noticed that when I first walked in, huh?" he said, laughing. I laughed too."Yeah. Well, we better get out of here." I said."Yeah. Oh yeah, and before I forget..." he said."What?" I pthc daphne asked."Happy Birthday." he said. I smiled.*** That was 2 years ago. I'll always remember Devon, though. From r ygold pthc thumbnails that moment on, I knew that I was gay. Anyways, now I have bigger fish to pthc porn top list fry, like Andre Stenerson. He found out my secret and is torturing me, blackmailing me, everything! He has crossed pthc sex kids underage the line, and I'll be dawned if I don't get my pthc child cum revenge.

Beware of bipartisan grandstanding
I wouldn't call the following statement an iron rule, but it's a good rule of thumb: When congressional Republicans and Democrats overwhelmingly agree on legislation, the legislation is probably bad. That's the case, in my view, with the bipartisan legislation that enables 9/11 victims and their families to sue the government of Saudi Arabia. Nowadays, "bipartisan" often means that one party supported a bill unanimously and managed to pick up »
All My Exes Live in . . . Where?
Remy Munasifi is now rolling out new videos on the first Tuesday or every month, which happens to be today, lucky us. The first in his new series is "All My Exes (Saudi Version)." You can subscribe to Remy's videos and other news on his website, GoRemy.com, or browse the archive for past hits such as "Teardrops on my Kabob." We can use some comic relief just now, I think. »
Coming Soon: Gulf War III?
Concerning the contretemps between Saudi Arabia and Iran, a few observations: • David Goldman thinks Saudi Arabia's execution of the Shite cleric Nimr al-Nimr and others is a sign of panic among Saudi leadership, and perhaps this is correct. On the other hand, the sacking of the Saudi embassy in Tehran can't have taken place without the connivance or tacit approval of the Iranian regime (sounds familiar, doesn't it?), who probably »
Middle East fires blaze hotter following U.S. capitulation to Iran
In a post about the Saudi Arabia/Iran crisis — the Saudi beheading of a Shiite cleric; the Iranian burning of the Saudi embassy — John asked, "the Middle East couldn't possibly get worse, could it?" At NR's Corner, David French examines the crisis and concludes "in the Middle East things can always get worse." Things have indeed gotten worse under President Obama. They got worse when Obama withdrew from Iraq »
Who bowed down
One of President Obama's core objectives is the humiliation of the United States. Thus his bows to the Saudi king and the Japanese emperor in the first year of his administration. Obama's bows gave expressive form to the diminished role Obama has crafted for the United States on the world stage. Obama's spokesmen threw in a healthy dollop of lying about it for domestic consumption thrown in for good measure. »
Saudi King blows off Obama
Saudi Arabia has announced that its new monarch, King Salman, will not attend meetings at the White House with President Obama or a summit of Arab leaders at Camp David. The king will instead send Crown Prince Mohammed bin Nayef, who is the interior minister, and Deputy Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who is the defense minister. The main reason cited for the King's abstention — the summit meeting overlaps »
Saudi Arabia throws a monkey wrench into Obama's Iran deal
As noted in a post I wrote earlier today, France has joined Israel in expressing dismay over the nuclear deal President Obama seems intent on reaching with Iran. Needless to say, Saudi Arabia, Iran's arch-enemy, shares the disgust. Israel and France seem to have little leverage with Obama. Indeed, Obama probably feels delighted that Prime Minister Netanyahu is unhappy. Saudi Arabia might be another matter. In fact, the Saudis may »

I have a BIG problem. I'm remodeling my kitchen and I have a range hood to install over a peninsula.
Wouldn't you know, the center of the 6" duct is right in the middle of a floor joist. I've attached a couple of photos to illustrate my problem I have just tacked the mounting plate to the floor joist in these photos to indicate the position it will be in.
I've marked the approximate amount of joist I'll have to remove to allow the connection to the duct.
These joists are 2X10s and the area to be potentially removed is approx 17" long by 6" high.
The obvious answer is to change the layout and move everything so this isn't a problem. Unfortunately that's not possible.
So, my question to you esteemed readers is: How can I properly support the floor above and still relieve this floor joist enough to allow room for the duct?
The house is a Cape Cod built in 1950.

Transition to Teaching
|Grantee Name:
|Mississippi State University
|Project Name:
|Teacher Educators for Rural Middle Schools (TERMS)
|Project Director:
|Devon Brenner  662-325-7119
|Partner Districts/LEAs:
|Amory School District, Caroll County Schools, Claiborne County School District, Columbia School District, Columbus Municipal School District, Corinth School District, Holmes County School District, Kemper County Schools, Laurel School District, Leake County School District, Louisville School District, Natchez-Adams School District, Okolona School District, Picayune School District, Prentiss County School District, Quitman School District, Shaw School District, Simpson County School.
Mississippi's rural children and their communities are among the most impoverished in the U.S. and face a staggering array of challenges that make it difficult for school districts to recruit and retain sufficient numbers of high quality teachers. Mississippi State University (MSU), in partnership with the Mississippi State Department of Education, the Mississippi Center for Education Innovation, and a consortium of 20 high-need rural Local Education Agencies, proposes to implement Teacher Education for Rural Middle Schools (TERMS), a recruitment and certification program for the State of Mississippi. This five year program will develop and expand alternate routes to full teacher certification for highly qualified mid-career professionals, recent college graduates who have not majored in education, individuals with emergency certification, and highly qualified paraprofessionals. TERMS builds on the successes of the existing Master of Arts in Teaching Secondary Education (MAT-S) program at MSU, an online degree program that leads to secondary licensure, supported since 2009 by a Transition to Teaching Grant award for the LEAP program (Learning and Educating through Alternate Programs). TERMS' focus on recruiting teachers for middle schools, rather than secondary schools, will help alleviate teacher shortages and increase the quality of teaching in grades 4-8, especially in rural schools in Mississippi, including those in the Delta. The MAT 4-8 will be a 36-credit program leading to a Master of Arts in Teaching for grades 4-8 that incorporates rigorous academic coursework, a classroom internship, and mentoring over a 3-year period. Activities include course work offered via distance learning, summer mini-conferences, nine-month internships in high-need LEAs, professional development offered regionally throughout the school year, and continuous participation in a web-delivered community of practice. The program incorporates rigorous academic coursework based on both NCATE (National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education) and NMSA (National Middle School Association) standards for teacher education. By gradually increasing its cohort size each year (beginning with 20 in the first implementation year, 30 in the following year, 35 in the subsequent year, and 40 in the final year), the project aims to recruit and support 125 newly qualified middle school teachers through its four project goals: Goal 1) to develop a high quality and self-sustaining, state-approved alternate route middle school MAT degree program; Goal 2) to recruit 125 high quality, non-traditional candidates for teaching and place them in high-need, rural LEAs; Goal 3) to increase retention of these teachers through a support system of sustained mentoring to participants and professional assistance to high-need LEA partners; and Goal 4) to conduct and disseminate research in that evaluates the effectiveness of TERMS and contributes to efforts to increase numbers of high-quality teachers for rural middle schools.

Project Description: Vision Integrated Robotics Workcell
Applied Manufacturing Technologies, Inc. required a portable robotic workcell to demonstrate current technology at tradeshows and open houses. Team SVS designed and built a workcell which integrates a robotic arm, vision system, and conveyor system. It accepts a user-defined product order via a touch screen, and relay the information to the robot arm. The robot fulfills the order through the use of a camera to recognize the products, retrieve them from the conveyor system and place the products on an output shelf.

The Colorado DOT (CDOT) is holding the ultimate cage match. It has pitted asphalt against concrete in a real-life test.
The question often asked when road construction decisions are being made is: Are asphalt and concrete equally suitable for heavily traveled roads and intersections? As part of its continuing effort to improve construction methods, CDOT is comparing the pros and cons of hot-mix asphalt (HMA) and portland cement concrete pavement (PCCP).
To make a valid comparison, CDOT has placed both surfaces side by side—exposed to the same weather, soil, and travel conditions. The ultimate goal is to better understand construction and maintenance costs, performance, and overall applicability of the two pavement types. The data also will help engineers decide between HMA and PCCP when designing highway projects.
The Long-Term Performance Monitoring of Asphalt and Concrete Pavements Study was initiated in 2002, coinciding with the start of construction on a project that would build a much-needed four-lane expressway through Colorado Springs, Colo.
"Powers Boulevard was selected because it's a brand new road and we anticipate similar traffic counts in both directions," says CDOT's Mark Andrew, resident project engineer. "This allowed us to build the northbound segment with concrete and southbound segment with asphalt. We constructed 3 miles, giving us a section that's long enough to gather sufficient information over a variety of elevations to assess the life cycle of both surfaces."
CDOT engineers determined a 10- to-15-year time frame would be required to establish the study's validity, allowing for enough data to be collected in a variety of circumstances, including the seasonal and wide temperature variations that occur in Colorado. To verify the data, weigh-in-motion (WIM) stations were installed on both the concrete and asphalt segments of the new expressway.
"Pavements are designed to carry finite amounts of traffic, so performance greatly depends on how much traffic is using a particular segment," says CDOT Materials Engineer Richard Zamora. "This site was selected as an evaluation section for asphalt and concrete because of its virgin alignment, and our expectation that traffic numbers will be comparable between northbound and southbound Powers Boulevard. WIM stations were included on this project to verify this assumption and to make sure we're not comparing apples and oranges when evaluating the performance of the asphalt and concrete sections."
Testing will take place annually. The projected cost of the study is about $12,000 per year, mostly to cover research salaries for data collection and analysis. The study is funded with CDOT's State Planning and Research money, which allocates funds to proposed studies based on the prioritization of the project.
"We'll analyze how the two surfaces are rutting at selected intervals, if there's cracking and why it's occurring, and how the smoothness of asphalt and concrete compare over several years," Zamora says. "We also want to know how skid numbers differ on both surfaces. We'll get some of that data by suddenly stopping vehicles with ribbed tires at 40 mph."
CDOT's research branch is seeking additional sites to perform similar side-by-side comparison studies. In addition to Powers Boulevard, CDOT is conducting related analysis at four intersections along one highway segment in the Denver area. It involves testing asphalt at two intersections and concrete at the other two.
As part of its continuing comparison analysis of concrete and asphalt, performance information will be collected periodically over the length of these studies. Engineers then will produce reports every five years and a final report documenting the entire research effort at the end of the study. What will it tell highway engineers in 2015 or 2020?
Inquiring minds will be ready to know.

Quiet, please
Tests will compare pavement noise levels
Like all transportation departments, the Colorado DOT (CDOT) deals with complaints about pavement noise. In addition to comparing the long-term performance of concrete vs. asphalt, CDOT is comparing pavement noise on the standard longitudinally tined concrete pavement (tining) and asphalt.
"This will give us the additional information we need to help our decision-making process," says Richard Zamora, CDOT materials engineer. The qualities of both materials have been debated for years, and the results will help CDOT determine life-cycle costs and benefits. Information collected on this project will educate the CDOT on how to most effectively spend its limited budget.

National Oilwell Varco (NOV) shares hit the highest level in a year after reporting third-quarter results that beat estimates and a record high backlog.
The oilfield equipment maker's Q3 earnings fell 12% to $1.34, but still topped expectations of $1.32 from analysts polled by Thomson Reuters. Revenue jumped 15% to $5.69 billion, above estimates for $5.68 billion.
Shares rose 4% to 82.38 in the stock market today, the highest since last October.
Revenue from its rig technology segment jumped 12% to $2.84 billion. New orders during Q3 totaled $3.31 billion, and its backlog jumped 30% from a year ago to a record high $15.15 billion.
Revenue from the petroleum services and supplies segment was up 5% to $1.81 billion. Revenue from the distribution and transmission segment rose 2% to $1.34 billion.
Gross margin shrank to 23.8% from 26.5% a year ago, but was up from 23.6% in Q2.
Last month the company announced it would spin off its distribution business to form another public company. The deal still needs regulatory approval but is expected to be finalized in the first half of 2014.
"As separate companies, the distribution business and the remainder of NOV will each be better positioned and have the enhanced operational flexibility to focus on their specific products, services and customers," CEO Pete Miller said in a statement.

CL Outfiles are like totally last year, Dude!
Using the internal cross reference files mean that us lowly IBMi Programmers can access heap of system information just by reading a file... the days of DSPFFD to an outfile then reading the outfile are long gone - we can just read the file field information direct from QADBIFLD instead...
There are eight cross-reference physical files, each containing a different type of information.
- QADBXREF. This is the big daddy system cross-reference file. It lists the information on every file on the system; where it is, what it looks like, who stroked it last and even, in some cases, what they had for breakfast.
- QADBFDEP - So this file basically holds the contents of the DSPDBR command -- really useful if you looking for lists of logical files and other key related information.
- QADBIFLD - Every Field in every file on the entire system! Thats right - Simply love this file. In the olden days I would always write little CLP programs to query a file to find the fields in the file, then read through those outfiles to find the field ifnormation but not anymore. Now we just read QADBFDEP and see it all in one big glorious heap - super fast and easy.
- QADBKFLD Here was have all the information about every key on every file on the box. Whoa I hear you mutter that gives me an idea... thats right... these previous three files give you all the information to right the holy grail of AS400 Utility Programmers - a DSPFLD, DSPKEY and DSPLFINF command :)
- QADBFCST - This is the Referential Constraints Header file... if you dont know what that means then I'm not going to waste keyboard taps in telling you.
- QADBCCST - read the description above but change the word HEADER for DETAIL and you will know where I'm coming from.
- QADBPKG - SQL packages information : The Consistency token field (DBPTKN) contains the package's "signature," which is similar in concept to export signatures for ILE service programs and level identifiers for files.
- QADBXRDBD - SQL information about Relational database definitions. Nuff said.
If you want to find out whats in the those files just use good old DSPFD, DSPFFD or RUNQRY *N if your not clever enough to use the PROJEX4i Toolkit. If you are then try out the DSPKEY command to list logicals over any file - this is a good example of using the cross references files.
Remember, these files are read only - so dont try and get clever and update anything....

Former hair apprentice Katie Weeds opened her own salon within a year of qualifying via Derby College – at the age of just 19.
Now running the Katie Weeds 1853 Hair Design Studio in Belper, she had set her heart on launching a hairdressing business ever since taking a Saturday job in a salon. After leaving school, she started an apprenticeship with a local hairdresser and completed her NVQs in October 2014.
She praises the College's training facilities and the supportive, encouraging staff. She also enjoyed interesting assignments such as creating styles for a 1960s avant-garde photo shoot.
Given her business success so far, Katie's long-term plan is to open more salons and then franchise the Katie Weeds name.
Taking an apprenticeship gave me the hands-on training I needed to be able to qualify as a hair stylist and open my own salon. What I love most about my job is making people feel better about themselves.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Guest from 126.96.36.199
Forum Moderators: open
I am new to cloaking and SEO and after reading some posts on this forum it is suggested that when developing a cloaking system you should start off with your cloaked page and your real page virtually the same and gradually introduce changes to your cloaked page (i.e. optimize your cloaked page for SE's).
My problem is this: if I only submit to SE's such as Google once a month to avoid blacklisting my sites and my cloaked SEO page is initially the same as the page that users see it could take me 6 months at least to see the gradual effect of changing my cloaked SEO page once a month.
Are there any shortcuts or search engines that are known to accept sites being added on a more regular basis than monthly?
What is the quickest method I can use to see how my cloaking takes effect or do I have to be patient?
Also what makes a sloppy cloaked page and how do i avoid this?
Yes it can be a slow process, but it is unnecessary to submit to Google or any other engine monthly. I have sites that have been submitted only once, or none at all (used a link on another page and let the spiders find it). They remain in the various indexes out there, and gradually they get picked up by others too.
There is nothing (ok very little) you can do to influence how quickly or how often your site gets indexed, except for pulling out a credit card at the Pay For Inclusion, or PPC engines. Mostly some patience is required, but you can make the changes you deem necessary all at once, it's just that you'll end up gradually tweaking that page anyway, unless it ranks well right from the start, and it will take time to see the results of those changes.
IMO A sloppy cloaked page is one that is easily discerned by surfers and search engines to be unacceptable (in the eye of the beholder), but maybe a more general definition is any page that hurts your site and rankings instead of helping can be considered sloppy.

"I think we should re-activate him." I heard a voice coming from the hall.
"You think we should what!? Are you trying to get us fired!?" Another voice.
"No, it's just… don't you think the boss was being unfair?" Their boss… that was Master, right? "Having him de-activated and abandoned just because he's a boy?" It sounded as though they were talking about another Vocaloid. I had never been told anything about him, though. I sat down next to my bedroom door so I could try to hear their conversation better. I wanted find out more about this other Vocaloid.
"You know he wanted a female Vocaloid. He had every right to abandon Mikuo." So the boy Vocaloid's name was Mikuo. It sounded similar to my name. Miku. Mikuo. Like my name with an "o" on the end.
"That's not a good reason to just abandon him! And besides, he never said he wanted the Vocaloid to be a girl until we had already activated Mikuo! At that point, it was way too late for him to decide that!" I definitely had to agree with this man. That boy didn't deserve to be abandoned just because Master had wanted a girl!
"That's why he was abandoned and Miku was built instead." So, I was built, just… just to replace him?
"Then why couldn't we just keep both of them?" demanded the first man.
"Because," replied the other. They had started to walk away by this point, but I managed to hear the words, "he only wants Miku." After that, they were too far away for me to hear the rest of their conversation.
I couldn't believe Master could be so cruel, though! He always acted so nice whenever Meiko, Kaito, or I were around. But when we weren't… apparently not.
During the course of their conversation, I had made up my mind to go find Mikuo. Secretly, of course. I'd start by searching the building. I'd check the basement first. I knew Master used it for storage, making it the perfect place to find a discarded Vocaloid. I also knew it was off-limits. I'd have to sneak down without being caught. I could go tonight, at midnight, when everyone's asleep. I'd have to be quiet so as not to wake anyone, but it'd be easier than going during the day. Then I remembered Master was leaving for a business trip next week. That would be my chance.
There was one major problem with my plan, though: I had no idea what Mikuo looked like. How was I supposed to find someone I had never ment, and without even a photo of him or a description of his appearance? Although, if Master had been keeping him in the basement, he would be the only Vocaloid there, right? He couldn't be that hard to find, right? If he was even there, that is.

Nano-Composite Barrier Anodic Aluminum Oxide for ICD Capacitors
|A.C. Geiculescu, J.L. Stevens and T.F. Strange
|St. Jude Medical, US
|170 - 173
|FESEM, TEM, aluminum oxide, anodic alumina
|Anodizing of aluminum in solutions such as sulfuric acid has been widely used for many years to produce nano-porous coatings on aluminum for architectural, decorative or abrasion–resistance purposes. It is well characterized in the literature as being an amorphous aluminum oxide that can be grown electrolytically to thicknesses of many microns with a relatively well organized array of nano-pores extending nearly down to the metal surface. Furthermore, these films grow under compressive stress, which imparts an inherent ability to resist cracking. Somewhat less well known is the electrolytic conversion of anodized films on aluminum to a totally amorphous, dielectric barrier layer material for use in pulse discharge aluminum electrolytic capacitors. Oxide for normal aluminum electrolytic capacitor applications is produced by different formation processes without the use of prior anodization. However, this nano-crystalline aluminum oxide forms in the tensile stress state which can lead to localized ruptures within the dielectric film. This paper shows that by adding a hydrothermal treatment between the anodization step and the barrier layer formation step, we have produced a nano-composite barrier layer that is up to 80% nano-crystalline while maintaining a compressive stress, amorphous oxide layer adjacent to the metal.It is expected that this nano-composite structure will offer the low stress, high stability features of amorphous oxide while maintaining high capacitance typical of totally nano-crystalline oxide.

In March 1980 the Melbourne docker Billy Longley, then serving a life sentence for the murder of Pat Shannon, the secretary of the Victorian branch of the Federated Ship Painters and Dockers union, blew the whistle on the activities of the union to the Bulletin, owned by the Australian newspaper baron Kerry Packer. Longley's claims of murders, institutionalised corruption, illegal bookmaking and extortion caused a sensation and led to the appointment of a royal commission in September that year, headed by the barrister Frank Costigan, who has died aged 78. His investigations showed that in the previous decade up to 30 murders might have been committed by dockers, some as part of a struggle for control of the union. His inquiry uncovered widespread links between the union and organised crime, including wholesale theft, robberies, horse-race fixing, drug dealing, both nationwide and in Asia, and prostitution run from the office of the crown solicitor in Perth.
Costigan was by no means the first choice to head the commission. Some Victorian judges who might have been expected to lead the inquiry declined the post and there were also questions of security. The dapper Costigan may have joked about the possibility of being compromised by a young blonde on his doorstep at 3am but, during the four years of the inquiry, security was vitally important and he regularly changed his routes and cars. The major casualty was, however, the new secretary of the union, Jack "Putty Nose" Nicholls, who, rather than give evidence, committed suicide - leaving a lachrymose note blaming the government for his death.
Despite considerable evidence to the contrary, successive governments in Australia had doubted that organised crime existed to any great extent. But, as Costigan widened the scope of his inquiry outside the immediate activities of the dockers to those of their friends and acquaintances and "followed the money" to the most unlikely places, it became apparent that there was a real and developing problem when he uncovered gigantic tax frauds known as "bottom of the harbour" schemes, together with links to Asian and American crime.
Costigan also made allegations involving both drugs and money-laundering - strenuously denied - against Packer, whom he code-named Goanna, which resulted in his being vilified both by the union and the Packer-owned press which, ironically, had started it all. In the Australian spring of 1984, the inquiry - which had expanded over the years - was suddenly and quickly shut down by the Bob Hawke government.
The findings of the commission, likened by its critics to a star chamber, were vigorously opposed and challenged not only by the union but by others, including Packer. In a row that simmered for the next 20 years, bursting out again at the media tycoon's funeral in 2006, Packer and his family claimed that Costigan's allegations were ill-founded. Costigan replied that a royal commissioner "does not make allegations, far less initiate prosecutions. What he does is investigate and report to the government on his investigations." Others suggested Costigan was trying to usher in a Big Brother society and compared his inquiry to that undertaken by the House Un-American Activities Committee in the US, as well as to Nazi Germany.
What Costigan did was to establish new procedures as to how organised crime was investigated and the commission led to the establishment of the National Crime Authority. The commission and its controversy ended any thoughts Costigan might have entertained for an appointment to the judiciary, but as the years have passed many have come to think he was treated unfairly.
The son of an accountant from an Irish Catholic background, Francis Xavier Costigan was born in the Melbourne suburb of Preston, one of eight children. He was educated at the St Patrick's, a Jesuit college, in East Melbourne, where he and his twin brother Michael were outstanding pupils. Francis read law at Melbourne University and qualified as a solicitor and barrister in 1953. Over the next 30 years he built up a substantial practice specialising in workers' compensation cases. In November 1973 he was appointed Queen's Counsel and became chairman of the Victorian bar in 1977. Another brother, Peter, became lord mayor of Melbourne.
As with many lawyers, he was also a political animal. In the 1960s he was a leading member of the Participants, a group of professionals who tried to break the stranglehold the left then had on the Victorian Australian Labour party (ALP). He chaired the Victorian ALP foreign policy committee and, in 1970, stood unsuccessfully for the federal seat of Chisholm, nevertheless polling a decent 34% of the vote. After the commission, Costigan turned to a mediation practice. In 2005, he became chairman of Transparency International, an anti-corruption coalition. He was also a director of Jesuit Social Studies.
A keen supporter of Carlton Football Club, he enjoyed travel, art galleries and - something of a beach bum - relaxing with both poetry and crime novels. An inveterate smoker in his younger days Costigan later suffered from lung cancer.
He is survived by his wife, Kathleen, the daughter of a Sydney barrister, from whom he was separated. They had two daughters, Phillipa and Genevieve, three sons, Tim, Joseph and Justice, and 10 grandchildren.
• Francis Xavier Costigan, lawyer, born 14 January 1931; died 13 April 2009

Government Should Make Driving-While-Dialing the New DWI: Viewby
Driving is an inherently dangerous activity. But in the U.S., we've generally accepted that the gains in convenience, freedom and productivity that motor vehicles provide outweigh their many hazards.
The growing distractive power of our digital devices may change this calculation. In a report released Dec. 13, the National Transportation Safety Board recommends an outright ban on using any mobile phones -- even those equipped with hands-free devices -- while driving.
Although such a ban isn't likely any time soon, we support the motivation behind it -- and any other effort that can hammer home the dangers of driving-while-dialing.
The agency has data on its side. A study published in the British Medical Journal in 2005 found that mobile-phone use increases fourfold the likelihood of a crash causing injuries. Hands-free devices, the researchers found, were no safer. Other studies have shown that using phones decreases drivers' attention to the road and delays their reaction times. With often tragic results: Distracted driving contributed to an estimated 3,092 highway deaths last year.
The NTSB cites the increasing capabilities of mobile devices -- to stream videos, retrieve e-mail, or play games -- as further evidence in favor of a ban. This phenomenon will only increase. That makes it all the more important to make clear now which activities can be tolerated behind the wheel and which cannot.
Using Common Sense
The first rule should be common sense. For example, sending text messages while driving, an objectively dangerous pursuit, should be banned outright. (It already is in 35 states and Washington, D.C.)
But further restrictions -- such as allowing the use of only hands-free devices, levying stiffer penalties for accidents involving mobile-phone use, or enacting a ban on drivers interacting with anything more complicated than the radio dial -- are harder calls to make. State legislatures must take into account that drivers really like to use their phones, and that these devices can make productive an otherwise time-wasting commute. Enforcement will also be challenging.
But as the dangers of distracted driving become clearer, we suspect public consensus will begin to form that the risks are not worth the rewards.
If and when this consensus forms, one solution the NTSB cites is promising. It suggests that device makers develop technology that would disable phones within reach of the driver while a vehicle is in motion. Such a device would still allow phones to make emergency calls, and would be able to differentiate between passengers and the driver. And the technology could be extended to all the gadgets that automakers now lard into cars to make them more attractive to tech-minded consumers. Insurance companies can speed public adoption of this technology by offering discounts for drivers who use it.
Such safety measures are available in some electronic devices, but it could take years to apply them more broadly. In the meantime, as states experiment with what approach best balances drivers' freedom and convenience with the safety of others, the best way to reduce dangerous distractions is a deceptively simple one: raising public awareness.
Traffic fatalities have been falling steadily since 2005, and declined to an all-time low in 2010. Although there isn't a definitive explanation, the Department of Transportation cites increased public awareness of the dangers of not wearing a seatbelt and of drunken driving, along with better safety technology.
Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood deserves credit for trying to start a similar effort to reduce phone use in cars. But more can be done. The idea would be to attach a social stigma to DWD that's the rough equivalent of DWI. Ad campaigns would help. Punitive insurance premiums would also concentrate drivers' minds. And states could start requiring offending motorists to attend awareness classes.
After all, Americans already understand the danger: 62 percent admit that using a mobile phone behind the wheel is hazardous. The trick will be persuading people that it isn't just the guy in the other lane who can't talk and drive -- it's you.

Reliability of routinely collected hospital data for child maltreatment surveillance
McKenzie, Kirsten, Scott, Deborah A., Waller, Garry S., & Campbell, Margaret (2011) Reliability of routinely collected hospital data for child maltreatment surveillance. BMC Public Health, 11(8).
Accepted Version
(PDF 160kB)
Background: Internationally, research on child maltreatment-related injuries has been hampered by a lack of available routinely collected health data to identify cases, examine causes, identify risk factors and explore health outcomes. Routinely collected hospital separation data coded using the International Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD) system provide an internationally standardised data source for classifying and aggregating diseases, injuries, causes of injuries and related health conditions for statistical purposes. However, there has been limited research to examine the reliability of these data for child maltreatment surveillance purposes. This study examined the reliability of coding of child maltreatment in Queensland, Australia. Methods: A retrospective medical record review and recoding methodology was used to assess the reliability of coding of child maltreatment. A stratified sample of hospitals across Queensland was selected for this study, and a stratified random sample of cases was selected from within those hospitals. Results: In 3.6% of cases the coders disagreed on whether any maltreatment code could be assigned (definite or possible) versus no maltreatment being assigned (unintentional injury), giving a sensitivity of 0.982 and specificity of 0.948. The review of these cases where discrepancies existed revealed that all cases had some indications of risk documented in the records. 15.5% of cases originally assigned a definite or possible maltreatment code, were recoded to a more or less definite strata. In terms of the number and type of maltreatment codes assigned, the auditor assigned a greater number of maltreatment types based on the medical documentation than the original coder assigned (22% of the auditor coded cases had more than one maltreatment type assigned compared to only 6% of the original coded data). The maltreatment types which were the most 'under-coded' by the original coder were psychological abuse and neglect. Cases coded with a sexual abuse code showed the highest level of reliability. Conclusion: Given the increasing international attention being given to improving the uniformity of reporting of child-maltreatment related injuries and the emphasis on the better utilisation of routinely collected health data, this study provides an estimate of the reliability of maltreatment-specific ICD-10-AM codes assigned in an inpatient setting.

Die to the heavy traffic site is unresponsive many times, hence the department has asked something to the users. All taxpayers are advised to log out immediately after uploading their I-T Return successfully and getting the ITR-V acknowledgement. This will facilitate smooth efiling for other taxpayers to e-file their returns.
Here is efiling process at a glance provided by the Income tax department -
1 Select appropriate type of Return Form
2 Download Return Preparation Software for selected Return Form.
3 Fill your return offline and generate a XML file.
4 Register and create a user id/password
5 Login and click on relevant form on left panel and select "Submit Return"
6 Browse to select XML file and click on "Upload" button
7 On successful upload acknowledgement details would be displayed. Click on "Print" to generate printout of acknowledgement/ITR-V Form.
8 Incase the return is digitally signed, on generation of "Acknowledgement" the Return Filing process gets completed. You may take a printout of the Acknowledgement for your record.
9 Incase the return is not digitally signed, on successful uploading of e-Return, the ITR-V Form would be generated which needs to be printed by the tax payers. This is an acknowledgement cum verification form. The tax payer has to fill-up the verification part and verify the same. A duly verified ITR-V form should be mailed to "Income Tax Department – CPC, Post Bag No - 1, Electronic City Post Office, Bangalore - 560100, Karnataka, " BY ORDINARY POST OR SPEEDPOST ONLY within 120 days after the date of transmitting the data electronically.
ITR-V sent by Registered Post or Courier will not be accepted.
