Farmhouse in St Aubin, Nr. Villeneuve sur Lot, Lot et Garonne, Aquitaine, France - Peaceful and secluded location 15 Minutes Walk From Village
Espere is a traditional 'longueur' built farmhouse over 200 years old and was probably the dowager house to the adjoining fruit farm. The property was restored from a ruin in 2001 and has been since brought to a high standard retaining many original features and providing an excellent level of comfort with accommodation for up to two families. Situated close to the medieval towns of Penne D'Agenais, Monflanquin, and Villeneuve Sur Lot, the property lies on the outskirts of the village of St Aubin famous for its annual prune fair. The house is surrounded by beautiful countryside with unparalleled views of prune and cherry orchards and within easy reach of many traditional French country markets, excellent restaurants and historical places of interest. Bergerac airport is an easy 45 mins. Bordeaux and Toulouse airports are 2 hours' drive. Agen and its TGV stop from Paris (4 hours) is a 45 minutes drive. The Channel ports are 9-10 hours driving. There is a large barn and a secluded 1 acre garden.

About the Owner
About Guy and Torill Dodgson
We have owned Espere for just over 13 years and have enjoyed restoring the property to a comfortable standard. We live in the UK but use the property several weeks of the year and have a lot of friends and acquaintances in the local neighbourhood. We are professional people working in academia, research and art. Our children and grandchildren also love the property for its freedom and space. The adjoining fields are like an extension of our garden (but we don't have to tend them!) and it is a joy to observe the seasons and the French agriculture.
Guy and Torill Dodgson purchased this house in 2003
Why Guy and Torill Dodgson chose Lot-et-Garonne
We were attracted to this region because it is relatively unspoilt and tranquil. Some friends who had settle here introduced us to the area. We love the property because of its magnificent open views and secluded location. St Aubin has all the amenities you need and yet access to elsewhere is easy. Monflanquin has a pleasant community, good bars and restaurants and during the summer there are many attractions.
What makes this house unique
For us we see the property as a bolt-hole for ultimate relaxation. We are often here in the winter which is ultra quiet. The wood burning stove heats the entire house and we are very snug and comfortable.
Guestbook comments from the owner
"We have had a lovely week at the farmhouse. It was incredibly hot but your beautiful pool made everything just right! You must be incredibly proud of the results of your labours as the house and grounds are really lovely".
"We had a fantastic holiday thank you. It was a real pleasure to stay in your wonderful house which is so beautifully decorated and thoroughly equipped. The pool was amazing, the kids and I were never out of it and the weather was great."

Fabulous place for a family to spend time together
The perfect place to unwind and recharge - Espere is situated in a beautiful spot and the open views from the terrace are worthy of painting! It is easy to quickly feel 'at home' here as the owners have equipped the house with everything needed to enjoy a self catering holiday. The quality of the furnishings and decor is high and equal to a boutique hotel. The pool is perfect too!
Highly recommended
Lovely, well equipped house (feels very homely and not like a hired gite but like a proper home). Pool was very clean and just the right size; being in close proximity to the house meant it was great for watching little ones in the pool too. The surrounding countryside was like something from a painting. My kids had so much fun jumping on the top of the hay bales which were all lined up ready to be collected. Very relaxing, get away from it all location and yet only 15k from Villeneuve Sur Lot. Would definitely stay again and would not hesitate to recommend it. Owner was very helpful. Thanks Guy and Torill.
Why move from such a fantastic spot
What an amazing house - we had the most fantastic stay at Espere and we just loved everything about it, we didn't even need to move all week !!
Espere was wonderfully equipped and we loved all the DVDs, games and books on offer (croquet is our new favourite game!) . The pool was wonderful and kept its heat really well. The linens and decor were also really lovely and the house felt very homely and comfortable (beds really comfy) and we spent most of the days by the pool and on the wonderful veranda which was always just the perfect temperature.
We thought it was an idyllic spot - the view really was fab and we basically didn't move all week !!!
Perfectly situated family holiday home
Fabulous house in the most perfect spot for days out or just relaxing by the pool. We have been to Espere for a few years now and as a family we just love it. Completely equips with everything nescesary for the perfect family holiday but big enough to share with friends too.
Ideally located for days out, a short drive to, what my children call the "Water park" Piscine Malbentre in Pujols, a fabulous new riding school to the south side of Saint Aubin. And for trips up to the Dordogne for canoeing and sightseeing.
We love Espere and would recommend it to anyone, the addition of the verandah has made such a difference to the house and makes it possible to enjoy the outside what ever the weather.
We hope to return soon
Blissful Rural Setting
Our adult family of six thoroughly enjoyed staying at Espere.
The pre breakfast walk through the sunflower fields to pick up croissants was a highlight of each day. We particularly enjoyed nearby towns of Montflaquin and Villeneuve-sur-lot and an excursion to Chateau Bourgeuil. Weather permitting,afternoons round the pool were hard to beat. I would have no hesitation in
recommending this property for a great getaway.
Perfect Retreat
The farmhouse is the perfect retreat from the stresses of modern living. It has great views over the surrounding countryside and although in a hamlet very secluded.
The accommodation is well furnished and you have everything you need for a relaxing time.
It is well located for provisions, sight seeing or tours of the vineyards.
We will definitely be coming back in the future.

Yue Xifeng
Yue Xifeng: Secondary Protagonist
Yue Xifeng is the burglar for the Lorrekin gang. She is a 21 year old Chinese girl.
1. Yue has two nicknames: Hey You, coined by her friend Shale since Yue is similar to You (she hates it); and Bumblebee, because she likes the color yellow and wears mostly black.
2. She is an aromantic asexual, meaning she does not really feel romantic or sexual attraction to anyone.
3. She bakes a mean apple pie.
4. When she sleeps, one eye is always open.
5. Yue once worked as a pickpocket.
6. During this period of her life, she and Regina became good friends. They are still on speaking terms.
7. Secretly, Yue loves dancing.
8. Her uncle taught martial arts classes, and he was the one who taught her how to be silent and sneaky.
9. Her favorite book is The Wizard of Oz.
10. She wakes up a little early every morning to fix her hair (it's spiked over one side).
11. She likes foggy weather best.
12. If Andy's planning a prank, she's almost always in on it.
13. While Josh (a former member of the group) was still around, the two were close. Since they were pretty much polar opposites, the others thought this was pretty funny.
14. When stressed or nervous, she bites her fingers- never enough to draw blood, but enough that it stings and distracts her from the situation.
15. She likes the taste of spicy food, much to the horror of Andy.

Don't shake Tim's hand, but stick around...
« Yeah, monsters. Sure. » Your mom always suggested to play along with crazies, so as not to trigger their craziness. Especially from a crazy that might know karate. "Tell me more about the monsters."
"Well, they'll come from the bowels of the Earth and the depths of the oceans and … you know, I don't know."
"They'll eat us?"
"I guess so," answers Tim. "Mr Miyagi never specified. Maybe we should ask for clarification."

Video: Wooden Knitting Needle Review
I take a look at a few different types of wooden interchangeable knitting needle sets available from Knit Picks in this video review.
I take a look at a few different types of wooden interchangeable knitting needle sets available from Knit Picks in this video review.
I am starting a new crafting series on my Youtube channel where I will be reviewing various knitting and crochet patterns. Here is the first one, a super cute flamingo named Gordon.
I take a look at all the goodies in this interesting crochet kit: Star Wars Crochet (Crochet Kits)
I usually try to film a number of videos at the same time. That way, I can "bank" them for editing later. I was looking over my non-edited videos, and voila! I discovered this gem from June that I recorded where I review a fairly new yarn from Lion Brand called Ice Cream Yarn.
There are lots of different types of yarns on the market used for making baby items like clothing, afghans, and toys. In this video, I take a look at one from Bernat.
When you watch the video, make sure to head over to my YouTube channel and subscribe. I have a giveaway in the works, which I will be announcing in an up coming video. Subscribers receive automatic email notifications when I post a new video. Subscribe now so you don't miss out!
In this brief video (a little over 8 minutes), I show and tell you about an interesting book called Knit Notes that is more than just a book. It's a crafting design tool.
I love Cascade's Souk yarn, but it might not be for everybody. In this little video, I give you the rundown on the good and not so good points of this beautiful silk and wool blend yarn.
Now to spend countless hours deciding what to make with them!
Here is the second part of the review I promised. Like part 1, I cover the pros and cons of my 3 day Disney cruise from Cape Canaveral, Florida to the Bahamas and Castaway Cay.

Effects of Hurricane Sandy begin to take shape in East Providence
EAST PROVIDENCE — As expected the effects of Hurricane Sandy are beginning to take shape in East Providence.
Road in the city remain relatively clear of debris. There are certainly fallen branches, but as of about 3 p.m. the most hazardous aspect of driving are the abundance of wet leaves, which make the streets slick.
The main thoroughfares in East Providence were still clear on any obstacles. There was some minor street flooding, though nothing that would preclude drivers from getting home safely. The roads were, however, pretty barren for the start of rush hour, most businesses having already closed and most residents seemingly having heeded the word of officials to stay home.
The photo gallery below offers a glimpse of the city at mid-afternoon, Oct. 29...

Former Rutgers Football Player Eric LeGrand To Speak At Commencement After All [Update]
Update: According to ESPN, LeGrand will indeed get a chance to speak to the Rutgers graduates as well as personally recieve his diploma bfrom Rutgers president Robert Barchi.
"Eric LeGrand will speak at our commencement and personally receive his degree from me as a representative of the Class of 2014,"
LeGrand was originally set to speak in the wake of Condoleezza Rice rescinding her commitment to speak at Rutgers graduation due to protests. The university offered the opportunity to one of its biggest inspirations Eric LeGrand a chance to give the 2014 class some words of wisdom.
He spoke to USA Today about what he planned to talk about.
"I was just going to tell them my story, about the whole process. Starting in 2005, being recruited by Rutgers and what it meant to me to play here and go to school here. And then the way everybody supported me through my injury, I was just going to give inspirational words about how they should attack life."
"All the things I've learned so far. All the (graduates), they're my age so I was going to try to (say) words they could remember, words that would inspire them to do great things in life."
Instead, Rutgers decided to go another way, and allow former New Jersey Governor Tom Kean to speak to the students.
LeGrand went on his Twitter to comment on the university's decision.
Rutgers offered me the commencement speech this weekend and I was going to accept but they decided to go other ways for political reasons
— Eric LeGrand (@EricLeGrand52) May 6, 2014
"Saturday I get a call from Greg Jackson and they offered me the job to give the commencement speech. I was like, 'Wow, thanks for the opportunity,' and he said, 'Let's touch base Monday and talk about it.' So I was telling my friends and my family, everybody was so excited."
In my opinion, Rutgers did the students an injustice here. I understand the reasoning in protesting Rice, but she is an accomplished woman stuck in between a pretty bad period in our nation in which I call the Bush years.
Having LeGrand as a backup could have been genius. He's not a politician, he's not going to be someone who was paid a large sum of money to speak on some things that probably won't move you.
What he WILL do is inspire each and every student getting ready to collect their diploma. LeGrand is the true example of a person who took his circumstances and used it to help other people. He could have spoke to the students on a personal level, in a way of understanding none of these politicians could ever do.
Yet, like usual, my alma mater dropped the ball on that chance.
We want to know what you think!

Tim Henman may never have a better opportunity of winning Wimbledon than he does now. He is fit, he is experienced, he has faith in his attacking style, and - as late developers go - he is probably in his prime at the age of 29.
As always, there are reservations, one of which was underlined in conversation with Frew McMillan, the eloquent television commentator and former doubles champion. McMillan, a South African who made his home in Bristol, also believes this could be Henman's year. But, as he pointed out, while the British No 1 has improved immensely during the past 12 months, so, too, have his accomplished younger rivals.
Roger Federer, the stylish, 22-year-old Swiss defending champion. whose game is both potent and poetic, has the talent to be the most outstanding world No 1 since Pete Sampras. Having ended last year by winning the Masters Cup, Federer opened this year by winning the Australian Open.
The 21-year-old American Andy Roddick, dazzled by Federer in last year's Wimbledon semi-finals, went on to win the US Open. Roddick attacks from the baseline. He has the fastest serve ever recorded - 153mph - and also has a solid return game, backed by a fierce forehand and ground-strokes honed on the concrete courts of Florida.
Then there is Lleyton Hewitt, the feisty Australian whose battles with the ATP Tour executive are as keenly fought as his matches and have made him seem like a veteran at 23. With a fleet-footed style somewhere between those of Michael Chang and Andre Agassi, Hewitt's crisp returns and angled ground-strokes did for Sampras in the 2001 US Open final.
Hewitt was able to build on the confidence he gained from that triumph, though not as quickly as many observers expected. Debilitated by illness, he lost in the opening round at the 2002 Australian Open and was eliminated in the fourth round of the French Open before blossoming again on Wimbledon's lawns. Hewitt defeated Henman in the semi-finals and out-played David Nalbandian, of Argentina in the final.
A year ago, Hewitt lost in the first round at Wimbledon, beaten into the ground by a giant Croatian, Ivo Karlovic, who is due to join his iconic compatriot, Goran Ivanisevic, in front of a television screen tonight to cheer for his country's footballers against England in Euro 2004.
Ivanisevic is finally able to stay on his feet long enough to make a sentimental journey to the All England Club. Who could ever forget how the popular Ivanisevic and his Teletubbies escaped from Henman's clutches over three days of rain delays en route to defeating Pat Rafter in the 2001 final?
As for Hewitt, there are signs that he is back in the groove, and the ominous statistic is that the Australian has defeated Henman in all seven of their matches. Much can happen, however, before they can meet for an eighth time. The seedings and the draw have ensured that Henman will only run into either Hewitt or Federer if he advances to the first Grand Slam final of his career and becomes Briton's first Wimbledon men's singles finalist since 1938, when Bunny Austin lost to the American Don Budge.
Even Sampras, who won the title seven times and defeated Henman in two of the Oxfordshire player's four semi-finals, would agree that it takes pluck and luck as well as ability to win a major championship: good fortune, plus the knack of playing through touch-and-go matches if you have an off day.
If Henman is able to work his way past an assortment of opponents in the early rounds, and has the wherewithal to overcome Mark Philippoussis, a familiar foe, in the last 16 (assuming the big-serving Australian is still around), the tide of Henmania will again submerge Henman Hill.
Nalbandian, projected to be the fifth-seeded Henman's quarter-final opponent, injured a rib during an exhibition match last week, and withdrew on Saturday. So we may see Henman duel with the second-seeded Roddick for a place in the final.
Eight days ago, Roddick defeated Sébastien Grosjean, of France, to retain the Stella Artois Championship at Queen's Club in a repeat of the 2003 final. Grosjean, it may be remembered, last year defeated Henman in the semi-finals at Queen's and the quarter-finals at Wimbledon, capitalising on Henman's tentative serving.
"If I was being brutally honest," Henman says, "I would look back at the Grosjean match and make sure I didn't do anything the same."
Roddick, asked to assess the field, said: "Roger's the favourite. Tim's got to be up there. He's one of the most experienced grass-court players and he's been playing well all year. I think Lleyton's up there. He's a former champion, a guy who just knows how to win matches. I think I'm in that mix as well. Then it gets tricky. Obviously Sébastien's there. There are probably 10 guys or so who have the potential to win."
Note that Philippoussis, last year's runner-up, is not in Roddick's list. "He's always a threat," the American said, "but there are contenders and there are favourites. He's always a contender on grass, but I don't think he's been playing up to his best lately."
Roddick, who is certainly up to speed, does not consider he has hit form too soon. "I don't believe in the whole peaking too early theory," he said. "I'm either playing well, or I'm not quite comfortable with how I'm playing. I've always been pretty simple like that. It's kind of weird for me to think, 'OK, lose in the semis'. I'm not thinking, 'OK, well maybe I didn't peak'. I just want to play well. I'll play well when I can, and take my wins when I can."
Although Roddick's booming first serves capture the headlines, many players would trade their best shot for his second delivery. "I'm hitting my second serve really big right now," he said. "That's the difference. I'm not sure if I've served this well before. It's encouraging. I have a lot of confidence in it. I'm not second-guessing it. Playing on grass obviously makes it a little easier, because going for a second serve is a pretty high percentage play."
Sampras may have gone, but his successors have cut their teeth and bite hard. It is time for Henman to make his most decisive move - preferably against Federer in a final that will live in the memory.
It is difficult to be so excited about the women's tournament, particularly in the absence of Justine Henin-Hardenne and Kim Clijsters, the two Belgians who might have intervened in the annual procession by the Williams sisters.
Injury and illness caught up with Henin and Clijsters just when Serena and Venus Williams were on their way back from ailments that had troubled them ever since they left the All England Club last July with silverwear for their Florida home for the fourth year in a row.
Not that the Williamses have approached anything like their former overwhelming power. They were disappointing at the French Open, where only their outfits caught the eye, if not the imagination.
"We both basically tried to commit suicide there," Serena said yesterday. "We had to get over it quickly, because we don't want to bring the bad karma to Wimbledon." Nonetheless, it is difficult to see them being upstaged at Wimbledon, unless their American compatriots Lindsay Davenport and Jennifer Capriati stage a revival, or the Williamses contrive to beat themselves before they get to play each other.
The Russians broke through in Paris, where Anastasia Myskina virtually had the final served to her by the petrified, double-faulting fellow Muscovite, Elena Dementieva. Perhaps the Russians can now extend their success to SW19, where, although Myskina is the second seed, others may be ready to follow her lead.
Maria Sharapova, a 17-year-old from Siberia via Florida, who reached the fourth round last year, is seeded to meet the 21-year-old Elena Bovina, from Moscow, in the third round. Both are in the same quarter as Myskina and Dementieva.
Svetlana Kuznetsova, a sturdy competitor from St Petersburg, who is due to mark her 19th birthday next Sunday, arrives at Wimbledon in the once familiar manner of her former doubles partner, Martina Navratilova - with the Eastbourne title in her bag.
In Saturday's Hastings Direct final, Kuznetsova defeated Daniela Hantuchova, of Slovakia, whose healthier figure suggests her dietary problems are behind her. Hantuchova prevailed against Amélie Mauresmo, of France, in the semi-finals in the most exciting contest of the tournament.
Kuznetsova may have what it takes to end Serena's reign.Reuse content

COLLEGE PARK, Md. – The Terps have their running back.
Three days after his parents saw the University of Maryland for the first time, Potomac (Oxon Hill, Md.) three-star Tayon Fleet-Davis opted to end his recruitment and announce for the hometown school. The 6-foot, 215-pounder committed to UMD head coach D.J. Durkin while at Maryland's cookout event July 30.
"Maryland is doing something big, and that's where it's at right now," Fleet-Davis said. "The DMV Movement, with all the local guys on board [with the Terps], Maryland is going to be special. I love what Coach [D.J.] Durkin has going on there; Maryland is on the come up."
That's quite a change of course for Fleet-Davis, who had long favored Syracuse. But evidently that July 27 foray through College Park turned the tide towards Maryland. Fleet-Davis was supposed to be in New York July 30, but quickly cancelled his final SU trip in favor of UMD.
"I really did like Syracuse, but I couldn't turn down the chance to play for the hometown team," Fleet-Davis said. "I love it [at Maryland], and my parents liked it a whole lot too, just meeting the coaches and seeing what they're about. It's a chance to stay home and do something big for my hometown school."
There were a number of factors that pushed the Terps to the head of the list, not the least of which was area recruiter Aazaar Abdul-Rahim's persistent pitch. Abdul-Rahim played a major role in securing a commitment from Fleet-Davis' teammate, Deon Jones, earlier in July, and the defensive backs coach had a similar relationship with the running back. Fleet-Davis has known Abdul-Rahim since he coached at Friendship Collegiate (Washington, D.C.) several years ago, and the two quickly bonded when the staffer came over from Alabama and offered the three-star back in February. Moreover, Abdul-Rahim left a distinct impression on Fleet-Davis' parents July 27 as well.
"Coach Aazaar is my guy; he was my favorite [college] coach to talk to," Fleet-Davis said. "He's just cool, and we have a great relationship. We talk all the time just about anything, just having normal conversations about life. He's a really good guy and someone I look up to."
Head coach D.J. Durkin and running backs coach Anthony Tucker deserve props too. Durkin's overarching energy and his stay-home mantra resonated, while Fleet-Davis talked up Tucker's coaching approach at various camps and practices. (The Potomac product also knew linebackers coach Matt Barnes, an indication the Terps may look at Fleet-Davis for defense if offense doesn't work out).
"Coach Durkin is just a really intense guy, and I like him a lot. He keeps talking about the DMV takeover and how I needed to keep the momentum going. He talks about how Maryland can be like Miami in the '80s, and that's something I thought a lot about and sounds good," Fleet-Davis said. "And Coach Tucker, I like the way he coaches. He's fun, but also very detailed. I liked the way he talks to the running backs and interacts with them."
Of course, the aforementioned Deon Jones gets an assist as well. The four-star corner has been hyping the Terps for the last month, doing his part to get his teammate on board. Fleet-Davis said he wouldn't be affected by another recruit's decision, but Jones' efforts certainly helped the Terps' cause.
"Deon is on me like every day. Every single day," Fleet-Davis said. "Like, every time he sees me it's like, 'Terps, baby.' He's just always saying how I need to stay home and keep the [hometown] movement going. He said we're going to win championships at Maryland."
While the coaches and Jones certainly had Fleet-Davis convinced, it's important to note the runner's inherent comfort level on campus. He visited College Park on random days just to chat with the staff, while he attended workouts, practices and every special event Durkin and Co. hosted (DMV Day, the Freak Show and the July 30 cookout).
"Every time I go up to Maryland I have a good time, just chilling," Fleet-Davis said. "I really like bonding with the coaches and just hanging out up there. It's always a lot of fun, and there's always cool people to chill with. I just like being around Maryland."
Some of the school's aesthetic qualities caught Fleet-Davis' eye too. He previously talked up the forthcoming $150 million facility upgrades, the weight-room improvements, the renovated player dorms and the campus itself.
"When the facilities are done, those are going to be hot," said Fleet-Davis, a football lifer who was forecast as the 'next big back' in Prince George's County as a freshman. "They're going to be some of the best in the country. That's going to be huge for Maryland."
Fleet-Davis also considered SU, Iowa, Illinois, Rutgers, Indiana and NC State, the latter of which actually offered after Fleet-Davis' freshman year. He pared that list down to UMD, SU, Iowa and Indiana, but during the spring it became clear Maryland and Syracuse were the two frontrunners, Fleet-Davis visiting each multiple times.
The Orange were favored, but the Terps, with one final push, kept the local runner home.
"I'm all Terps, and I'm ready to keep the movement going," said Fleet-Davis, who runs the 40-yard dash in 4.7 seconds and piled up 780 yards and seven touchdowns last year. "I feel like with the class we have coming in, we're going to do great things in the future. We just got to keep it rolling. Go Terps."-->

text: Please note that CNW noticed a mistake in c2996 sent at 7:16 ET today. This release revises and replaces the previous version sent. Independent proxy advisory firm ISS recommends shareholders vote for TELUS' share exchange proposal ISS concludes that "support for this proposal is warranted for both classes" of TELUS shareholders VANCOUVER, Oct. 1, 2012 /CNW/ - Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. (ISS), a leading independent global proxy advisory services firm, is recommending that shareholders vote in favour of TELUS' proposal to exchange its non-voting shares into common shares on a one-for-one basis. ISS is an independent proxy advisory firm relied upon by institutional investors for advice regarding significant shareholder votes. ISS stated, "This proposal represents another meaningful step forward in the company's governance regime, in resuscitating the principle that voting rights should be commensurate with economic interest…As the proposed transaction continues to align voting rights with economic interest, offers shareholders meaningful economic opportunity through increased trading liquidity and a dual listing on the NYSE, and has been ratified by a strong market response - and as the company's Articles effectively preclude any exchange ratio other than the proposed one-for-one exchange - a vote FOR the proposal is warranted." "This recommendation from a trusted neutral expert on corporate governance and proxy voting confirms that TELUS' proposal is fair and beneficial to all shareholders, and is consistent with the principles of good corporate governance and shareholder democracy," said Darren Entwistle, TELUS President and CEO. "We ask all of our shareholders to support our proposal, casting their votes for good governance and the value-creating benefits fostered by collapsing our share structure into one class of shares." Both ISS and Glass Lewis & Co., the other major global leading governance and proxy advisory services firm, recommended twice before (in initial and updated reports) in favour of a similar proposal TELUS put forward earlier this year. Prior to withdrawing its previous proposal, TELUS had the overwhelming support of its shareholders - excluding Mason, 92.4 per cent of total shares received were in favour of the proposal. This latest recommendation from ISS represents the third time it has supported TELUS' objective to move to a single class of outstanding shares via a one-for-one exchange ratio.

For tonight's pick, we're gonna hop on this wild ride called "Cable" and ride it down as the Greenback has been gaining ground against it as of late. We have a couple of big data reports coming up today with GBP Retail Sales number and US CPI data. Now, the GBP Retail sales number is forecasted to grow at 0.2%, but I think we may see a weaker number, especially with all of the weak data out of the UK recently. Also, US CPI will be released at 8:30 am EST, and with the Fed still concerned about inflation, this report will be closely watched and we may see a strong market reaction if the core CPI number is higher than expected. Going with these ideas and being that GBP/USD has been in a monster downtrend, I think a short play on GBP/USD is a great play for tonight. Here we go:
Short GBP/USD at 1.8875 , stop at 1.8900, pt1 at 1.8850, pt2 at 1.8825
Good luck and good trading!

I recently ran a series of posts for the French side of my blog, interviewing different tourism organizations in the province of Quebec (Canada) that execute many aspects of their social media strategy effectively. There was a big city hotel, a destination spa in the Eastern Townships, a regional destination marketing organization (DMO), a cultural promotion office and a well-known resort located North of Montreal. Each have different realities, yet similar approaches and concerns. However, when I asked them what was their greatest challenge in managing social media moving forward, they gave very different answers. And from my experience in the past four years in this sphere, it's a safe bet that these concerns are shared by many in the tourism & travel industry.

For this to be realised, there may be a need for a broader development of senior and middle managers in your company. Given the hand you have been dealt, it is vital that you identify the key talented people in the business whom you may want to keep.
It is easy to fall into the trap of focusing on those who have already made the decision to leave rather than on those who are left and whom you want to retain. Spend some time on the shop floor talking to these peo ple - perhaps they have been neglected in recent times. What can you offer them and what can they offer the company?
Pay might be one of the issues, but there may be other things that you can offer, such as training, promotion, or encouraging them to take on a mentoring role for new people coming into the business.

Dr Rob Yeung says: "There are two issues here. First, if you do not want to lose staff, why are you offering severance pay at all? Unless the company is desperate to reduce its cost base by axing staff, this sounds a counterproductive practice. Secondly, the only way to find out how to stop the drain is to ask people candidly why they feel undervalued. In my experience, feeling undervalued is rarely a case of not being paid enough. It may be that relationships with their bosses have soured. Perhaps office politics or lack of career progression are affecting people's satisfaction levels. Get groups of employees together and ask them about their frustrations. But don't let them merely bleat on about why they are unhappy, invite them instead to get involved in seeking commercially viable ways of improving the situation at work."

Stuart Crabb says: "There is no magic formula that will solve your crisis. However, it is crucial to remember that people normally respond well to a working environment that promotes a clear vision for the business and how their contribution fits in. The quality and style of managers and supervisors in making this happen is an essential ingredient, and a common starting point for the HR manager is to help these executives give leadership, and tackle those who don't will build the confidence and trust of employees. There are a number of techniques you can use, including employee satisfaction surveys and focus groups and talking informally with local managers, employee groups and some of the remaining long-serving staff , may give you some initial clues. Employees will respond positively to an organisation that communicates openly and helps them develop their own careers.

New Braunfels Herald Zeitung (Newspaper) - April 15, 1993, New Braunfels, Texas Race is on to beat midnight tax deadline New Braunfels ^°L. O 2 / L-r r U*U I S bl I Thursday, April 15,1993 Herald Serving Comal County • Homa of Aaron Allen 50 Cents Daily, 75 Cents Sunday Vol. 141, NO. 104 .......... By ROSE MARIE EASH Herald-Zeltuag It's time to file for extensions for residents who haven't filed their income tax returns yet Even the professionals are in a panic today. "The deadline is tomorrow?" exclaimed Charles T. Allen, a New Braunfels accountant contacted yesterday for a status report on local taxpayers. Regaining his composure, Allen said-most accountants who do tax prepara tion have been filing extensions for the last two weeks. "You have to back off doing the returns well before the deadline just to do the extensions," said Charles T. Allen. Tm very busy trying to do extensions. I haven't filed one for myself yet" According to Allen, residents who aren't ready to file by the first of April probably need to file for an extension, because the preparation time required and the busy season make getting the job done on time difficult. Residents can file for an extension that will delay filing through August 15. Those still aren't ready then can file once more and delay the inevitable until October 15. What's new in the scheme is residents can now delay paying as well as filing, according to the Internal Revenue Service. Previously for those who owed taxes, the IRS demanded payment by April 15 regardless of when you filed. They charged a failure-to-file penalty of 5 percent per month, which will now be waived when you file for an extension. However, they will still assess interest on unpaid taxes. But now it will be at 7 percent a year, according to IRS officials. Residents who file today must pay at least 90 percent of their total liability to avoid interest on payments — both withholding and quarterly payments. There is no penalty for delaying filing for one of the three-quarters of taxpayers who get refunds. The IRS advises taxpayers to pay "as much as they can, as soon as they can" to avoid interest payments. Taxpayers have until midnight Thursday to make the traditional April 15 deadline. The local post office will close at 5 p.m. unless there's a line of people wait ing at that time. Returns can be deposited in a special mailbox in the lobby of the post office until midnight — the returns in that box only will be postmarked April 15. "There's been an increase, but not at much as I expect tomorrow," said Alice Briones, superintendent of postal operations at the New Braunfels post office. "We're creatures of habit and tomorrow's when everyone will come in." The basic tax forms are still available at the post office and the Dittlinger Memorial Library has a master copy of all the forms needed. A New Braunfels Utilities official says the company's surface water treatment plant reduces the strain on the Edwards Aquifer, while also providing city residents with an additional source of water. According to Roger Biggers, NBITb assistant general manager of administration and finance, the surface water treatment plant provides the city with 8 million gallons of water daily. But instead of pumping it off the aquifer, the surface water treatment plant takes water from the Guadalupe River, then cleans, treats and returns it to NBU customers in the form of tap water. Biggers admits the process of treating surface water is more expensive than pumping from the aquifer, but said the long-term benefits are appealing. "Certainly ifs more expensive than pumping from the aquifer," Biggers said. "There's a lot more to it than just taking the water, treating it, and sending it down the pipe." Biggers said the expense of treatment chemicals, plant operations and manpower contribute to the increased cost of treating surface water, but the advantages of having an alternate source of water balance out those costs. "We're looking at not only the quantity of the aquifer, but also the quality, which right now are both excellent," Biggers said. However, Biggers said should the quantity of the aquifer diminish, New Braunfels could rely completely upon its surface water treatment plant. Diane Palm and her 2-year-old son, Mitchell, of New Braunfels play in Landa Park Wednesday after a series of thundershowers early in the morning gave way to sunny skies. The forecast for New Braunfels today calls for sunny skies with a high in the low 70s. Tonight will be clear and cool with a low in the mid-40s. Aggies muster to salute fallen comrades By GARY P. CARROLL Harakl-Zaltung Aggies past, present, and future will gather at the New Braunfels Civic Center April 21 for the 1993 Texas A&M University Aggie Muster ceremony sponsored by the Comal County A&M Club. Each year, Aggies unite in Muster ceremonies around the world to remember their comrades who have died since the previous year's Muster, as well as to honor a class' 50-year reunion. The 1993 Muster will honor Aggies who died in 1992 and the graduates of the class of 1943. During the most solemn of all Aggie traditions, the names of the deceased will be read one final time during the Roll Call for the Absent, at which time friends and family members will answer "here" for the deceased — one final time. Comal County A&M Club President Kevin Wingate, or the Class of'71, said the event gives Aggies the chance to gather once a year for a common cause. "It's our opportunity to come together and share in the fellowship, as well as pay our last respects," Wingate said. Harvey Haas, of the Class of '59, and Muster Committee chairman for the Comal County A&M Club, said the event should be an obligation for all Aggies to honor their predecessors. Haas said he is expecting 200 participants this year. The annual event will include a candlelight ceremony and the playing of "Taps" by New Braunfels High School student Jason Haas. The speaker at this year's Muster is Haul B. Fernandez, Class of'59. Fernandez serves on the Texas A&M Board of Regents and is the chairman of the Corps Development Council. Those wishing to attend may call 629-6304. Tickets are $ IO for adults and $6 for children. By ROSE MARIE EASH Herald-Zettung Wednesday night's Senate forum at Trinity University in San Antonio was summarized by Sen. Bob Krueger in his closing remarks when he quoted Winston Churchill, "I have felt the exhil-erating effect of being fired upon without effect." Five of Krueger's 23 opponents for the Senate seat vacated by Lloyd Rentson in January took turns criticizing Krueger for being a "closet Republican," for not being conservative enough, for being too conservative, for being partisan and for not being partisan enough. Krueger said he has always been a Democrat, fiscally conservative and an advocate of civil rights. He defended his votes in the Senate, saying he has considered his conscience and his constituency when deciding how to vote — and will continue to do so. Before a sparse crowd, Jack Helds, Richard Fisher, Kay Bailey Hutchison, Krueger, Joe Barton and Jose Angel Gutierrez responded to a three round series of questions from the media and from university students. The panelists included political reporters from the Dallas Morning News, tile San Antonio Express-News and the Houston Chronicle. As the first question was being asked, independent Ixm Zaeske of Bryan strode across the stage protesting the exclusion of "independent candidates." Ile was escorted off the stage. Gutierrez was short and to the point and displayed a fine wit, but his remarks were so stridently and specifically anti-Krueger that it appeared his campaign was focused solely on destroying the senator's credibility. Hutchison wus smooth and polished, but a little hesitant on campaign reform, saying she had a plan. She followed that with an awkward agreement that PACS were too influential instead of pressing her points. "I have felt the exhilarating effect of being fired upon without effect." Sen. Bob Krueger quoting Sir Winston Churchill She then challenged legislators to vote against additional spending unless the funds could be taken from existing allocations. On the abortion issue the candidates were evenly split — as a group and individually. Hutchison said she was pro-choice "before viability," but believed states have the right to demand parental consent. Helds said he was pro-life, "with reasonable restrictions." Fisher said he didn't personally believe in abortion, but took a pro-choice stand as far as government interference was concerned. Barton was unequivically on the side of "right to life." Gutierrez was equally strong about his pro-choice position, as was Krueger. Krueger stumbled when asked to specifically name spending cuts that would affect Texas, falling back on the government audit plan and saying cuts as a result of eliminating the waste found would be widespread. In the second round of questioning by university students, no one was in favor of a value added tax to support a new health care system. But almost everyone was in favor of a service corps as a way for students to repay student loans. On the issue of lifting the ban on homosexuals in the military, Krueger and Hutchison said they would support the decision made by the joint chiefs. Krueger voiced his objection to screening and Gutierrez said he was against discrimination of any kind. Barton said he was opposed to gays serving in the military "openly" Helds and Fisher were opposed to lifting the ban.Treatment plant a plus for aquifer By GARY P.

Freedom in the yoga sutras is called Moksha and it is really about being fully alive in the moment, not worrying about what is to come or what is past. I will close with a great quote from Robin Sharma from his book Daily Inspiration " Courage is not the absence of fear but the willingness to walk ...

#include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/ipc.h> #include <sys/sem.h> int semctl(int semid, int semnum, int cmd, ...);
This function has three or four arguments, depending on cmd. When there are four, the fourth has the type union semun. The calling program must define this union as follows:
union semun { int val; /* Value for SETVAL */ struct semid_ds *buf; /* Buffer for IPC_STAT, IPC_SET */ unsigned short *array; /* Array for GETALL, SETALL */ struct seminfo *__buf; /* Buffer for IPC_INFO (Linux specific) */ };
The semid_ds data structure is defined in <sys/sem.h> as follows:
struct semid_ds { struct ipc_perm sem_perm; /* Ownership and permissions time_t sem_otime; /* Last semop time */ time_t sem_ctime; /* Last change time */ unsigned short sem_nsems; /* No. of semaphores in set */ };
The ipc_perm structure is defined in <sys/ipc.h> as follows (the highlighted fields are settable using IPC_SET):
struct ipc_perm { key_t key; /* Key supplied to semget() */ uid_t uid; /* Effective UID of owner */ gid_t gid; /* Effective GID of owner */ uid_t cuid; /* Effective UID of creator */ gid_t cgid; /* Effective GID of creator */ unsigned short mode; /* Permissions */ unsigned short seq; /* Sequence number */ };
Valid values for cmd are:
struct seminfo { int semmap; /* # of entries in semaphore map; unused */ int semmni; /* Max. # of semaphore sets */ int semmns; /* Max. # of semaphores in all semaphore sets */ int semmnu; /* System-wide max. # of undo structures; unused */ int semmsl; /* Max. # of semaphores in a set */ int semopm; /* Max. # of operations for semop() */ int semume; /* Max. # of undo entries per process; unused */ int semusz; /* size of struct sem_undo */ int semvmx; /* Maximum semaphore value */ int semaem; /* Max. value that can be recorded for semaphore adjustment (SEM_UNDO) */ };The semmsl, semmns, semopm, and semmni settings can be changed via /proc/sys/kernel/sem; see proc(5) for details.
Otherwise the system call returns a nonnegative value depending on cmd as follows:
All other cmd values return 0 on success.
Various fields in a struct semid_ds were shorts under Linux 2.2 and have become longs under Linux 2.4. To take advantage of this, a recompilation under glibc-2.1.91 or later should suffice. (The kernel distinguishes old and new calls by an IPC_64 flag in cmd.)
In some earlier versions of glibc, the semun union was defined in <sys/sem.h>, but POSIX.1-2001 requires that the caller define this union. On versions of glibc where this union is not defined, the macro _SEM_SEMUN_UNDEFINED is defined in <sys/sem.h>.
The following system limit on semaphore sets affects a semctl() call:
For greater portability it is best to always call semctl() with four arguments.
Under Linux, semctl() is not a system call, but is implemented via the system call ipc(2).
