He has a reputation as somehting of a womaniser but Jack Nicholson has admitted he is now lonely and is facing dying alone.
The actor said that he still has a "yearning" to be with somebody but believes his chances are "not very realistic".
The 77-year-old lamented how he cannot chat up women in public any more and that they no longer trust him because of his reputation as "Jack the Jumper".
Nicholson also opened up about his stormy, decades long affair with Anjelica Huston and described the time they split up as the "toughest period of my life".
In an interview with US magazine Closer, Nicholson spoke with rare candour about how his life of hell-raising had left him bereft.
He said he was regretful that his philandering had left him without a steady partner to take care of him in his old age.
Nicholson said: "I would love that one last romance but I'm not very realistic about it happening. What I can't deny is my yearning.
"I'm definitely still wild at heart, but I've struck biogravity.
"I can't hit on women in public anymore. I didn't decide this; it just doesn't feel right at my age.
"I have had everything a man could ask for but no one could say I'm successful with affairs of the heart.
"I don't think relationships are fixed things. People are necessarily complex and confused beings. We don't always do the right thing, say the right thing and behave the way we always want to behave."
Nicholson's routine these days involves sleeping until 1pm and then having a glass of milk to soothe his stomach.
He plays golf, takes a nap or pops next door to the house his friend Marlon Brando used to own in Mulholland Drive in Los Angeles.
Nicholson bought the property to house his art collection – and so he wouldn't have to deal with neighbours.
Rather than partying all night as he used to, his nights are spent in watching films with friends.
Nicholson said: "No woman has ever recognised what I say as being legitimate – they don't trust me.
"They think of my reputation – Jack the Jumper – so I'm damned by what women think."
For anyone who managed to get a date with Nicholson, he added that he won't even go out with them any more.
He said: "I got tired of arguing with women about going to dinner. The food is better at my house."
A source added: "He's afraid of dying alone in that house' referring to his mansion that his children want him to sell.
"They've been encouraging him to downsize and move into a more manageable place in Beverly Hills. But he loves his old place in the Hollywood Hills."

More Than an Interview ● ● ● Claire & Mohinder
Mohinder couldn't help noticing how her eyes wandered over him every now and then. Normally he wouldn't have minded the attention – especially from someone so beautiful – but the same pull that summoned him to her also made him wary and paranoid at the same time. Perhaps it was just too much sensory overload, and he found himself shrugging that feeling off, or at least attempting to. As for no true reason to offer her protection, this was Mohinder after all and underneath, he had a heroic heart.
At the portraits and seeing her as an adorable child, a smile crossed Mohinder's face before fading a moment later at her question. The glance she gave him sent a small shiver down his spine as he attempted to speak. "I um, actually, I believe I had a sister, but I do not remember her at all." Which wasn't unusual, considering she had passed away before Mohinder was born.
As the last syllable left his mouth, it began - the coolness of her hand disappeared from his and the sight of pure terror was evident along her delicate features. In one swift motion, Mohinder turned to face the darkness. Eyes narrowed and glaring and teeth gritted, he stood, a human shield as he backed up to Claire. In that moment, a new instinct took over, one that he had never felt before. In an incredible light show, there grew from his back a pair of translucent wings, spanning out to cover Claire even further, eventually going so far as to wrap themselves around her. There was no time to think or rationalize this, so Mohinder just went with it. With a growl, he did what felt natural, eventually shooting a ball of light toward the creature…

The dialectic of Top Girls is wide-ranging, covering universal dilemmas facing women, but focuses on major themes of contemporary life. The critique of feminist ambitions is a clear central theme and Churchill's selection of women from the past and modern world shows sympathy for the feminist cause and disdain for the male oppressor, but there is no sentimentality an no comfortable solution is offered for their problems.
Marlene hosts a dinner party in a London restaurant to celebrate her promotion to managing director of 'Top Girls' employment agency. Her guests are five women from the past: Isabella Bird (1831- 1904) - the adventurous traveller; Lady Nijo (b1258) - the mediaeval courtesan who became a Buddhist nun and travelled on foot through Japan; Dull Gret, who as Dulle Griet in a Bruegel painting, led a crowd of women on a charge through hell; Pope Joan - the transvestite early female pope and last but not least Patient Griselda, an obedient wife out of Chaucer's Canterbury Tales. As the evening continues we are involved with the stories of all five women and the impending crisis in Marlene's own life. A classic of contemporary theatre, Churchill's play is seen as a landmark for a new generation of playwrights. It was premiered by the Royal Court in 1982.
This volume contains a chronology of the playwright's life and work; an introduction giving the background to the play; a discussion of the various interpretations, notes on individual words and phrases and photographs from stage productions.

Caryl Churchill is a major contemporary British dramatist and features prominently in numerous books on modern "Feminist" or "Political" theatre, but she is careful not to be pinned down to any limiting definitions. The variety of her subject matter, the constant experiment with form and her challenge to conventional role models defy attempts to restrict the scope of her drama.From AudioFile:
When the curtain rises, Marlene has just gotten a promotion and is celebrating with a group of overachieving women of history. Next comes a montage of her at the employment agency where she works. Finally, comes a tense reunion with her sister and the daughter Marlene abandoned. This celebrated allegorical stage play of 1982 presents several difficulties for the audio producer. It requires eight women on mike at once, and much of the dialogue overlaps. Without visual cues, how to keep things clear? It helps to have a terrific cast, such as this one. Unfortunately, the director's focus on his live audience works better for them than for his audiobook listeners, who may experience moments of confusion.

Lote Tuqiri has become the first Australian rugby league international to return from union and be capped again by being named to play against Papua New Guinea in the Four Nations tomorrow in which England took on New Zealand early this morning.
Tuqiri, the Wests Tigers wingman, kicked out by the ARU in controversial circumstances last year, has been preferred on the left flank to St George-Illawarra's Darius Boyd. That has forced the Australian coach, Tim Sheens, who also coaches the Tigers, to angrily refute charges of favouritism. Tuqiri was not in the original squad and was only drafted in when Jarryd Hayne was ruled out with a hamstring injury.
"There is no way in the world I would do that," he said of the suggestions of bias. "I don't want to sit here justifying why I pick players or don't pick players."
The others Sheens has picked include Cooper Cronk of Melbourne at scrum-half for the injured Johnathan Thurston, two recalled centres in Brent Tate and Willie Tonga and a debutant prop in the Sydney Roosters' Nate Miles.
Australia are expected to win handsomely in Parramatta, but one of the Kangaroos forwards, Tom Learoyd-Lahrs, has warned that PNG are improving rapidly.
"The progress they have made in three years is phenomenal," he said. Others in the squad have said, rather less flatteringly, that they expect the Kumuls to try to intimidate them.
They have only one NRL player, in their captain, Paul Aiton, but their coach, Stanley Gene, has called upon five based in Britain – Sheffield's Menzie Yere, Makali Aizue of Halifax and the Hunslet pair, Michael Mark and Charlie Wabo.
Harlequins have signed the Manly back-row forward, Chris Bailey, on a one-season deal. Bailey is the younger brother of Phil Bailey, who is moving from Wigan to Salford this winter. Quins are also expected to take as many as four of Wigan's crop of young players on loan.
Wakefield's hopes of securing a Super League license for the 2012 season have been boosted after the club received outline planning permission to build a new stadium. The Wildcats had billed this morning's hearing at Wakefield County Hall as one of the biggest moments in their history, and coach John Kear and a number of his players were present to hear a unanimous verdict delivered in favour of their proposed development at Newmarket, Stanley.
Although the approval is still subject to the removal of a direction by the Highways Agency concerning travel plans and the possibility of a public inquiry, yesterday's news means Wakefield can submit a stronger case for a new three-year licence than if their application had been turned down.
"This is fantastic news and is the biggest day in the club's modern history," said chief executive James Elston. "We are aware that we have some boxes to tick but now we can move onwards and upwards. I would like to thank all supporters, players and staff who spent three hours outside showing their support for the club and also to Wakefield Council." The council's decision to grant outline planning permission also means that the club will get an immediate financial boost. The club have an outstanding tax bill of £164,000 and an anonymous backer came forward yesterday offering to pay the amount in full if the stadium plans were given the green light.
Wakefield's local rivals Castleford are also developing a site of their own at Glasshoughton, just two junctions along the M62.Reuse content

Special Election Asked in State Senate Contest St. Paul Frank Wrabek of Le Center, contestant for 17th dls- ;rict state senate seat, said today he would call off further planned court moves If a special election Is called In the district. Wrabek defeated William Dietz of Hontgomury, senator from the dis- trict since 1935, in the November election. His election was subse- quently declared null and void by District Judge Martin Nelson of Aus- that had On Labor Bills Strike Control Measure Expected Before March 1 By William F. Arbogast Republican controlled 80th Congress ended its first week of business today with the House threatening to take the ball away from the Senate on Jabor legislation. For the moment the new session studied with a critical eye President Truman's budget third communication to the lawmakers in a week. But looking ahead. House leaders privately disclosed plans to have their branch write a comprehensive strike control measure before the March 1 date Chairman Taft (R.- Ohio) has set for his labor commit- tee to send one to the Senate debate. It is possible the new House labor committee headed by Reprcscnta- i live Hartley (RXN.J.) will use us tin. basis of its considerations the ull- incluslve measure introduced yes- terday by Representative Francis Case (R.-S. D.) Won't Walt For Senate "We aren't going to wait for the Senate: we can pass a bill much quicker in the a high-placed Republican told reporters. He smiled broadly when asked whether he thinks the House pre- fers not to have a labor bill named after Taft, in all but avowed aspir- ant for the party's 1948 presidential nomination. The new labor measure proposed by Representative Case is far broad- er than the Case bill vetoed last year by President Truman. It in- cludes more than a score of labor law revisions, ono of which would make it possible for the government to delay a coal strike, or a strike in the corrupt practices act by circulating "false and misleading1' statements during the campaign. Dletz has filed a petition asking the senate give him the seat on tho basis of Judge Nelson's decision and Wrabek had filed a statement of objections to this course, pro- posing Instead that a new election be held. He has filed notice of motion for a new trial In district court and announced plans for an appeal to the state supreme court if this fails. However, he said today, he would be willing to drop these plans if a special election Is called. 4 Children Die In Chicago Fire Chicago Four Negro chil- dren, two brothers and their two sisters, perished in a fire which swept through a four-story brick lat building at 31st street and Cottaue Grove avenue yesterday.

Washington The pub- lic health service reported today tho infant mortality rate has reached the lowest point in tho nation's history and appears to be still heading- downward. The rate for 1915 was 38.3 deaths under ono year old per live births, 3.8 per cent lower than the 33.8 for 1944. Provisional figures for the first ten months of 1946, a health, service announcement added, indicated a 3.2 decrease from the same period of 1945. The maternal mortality rate of 2.1 per live birth of 1945 also was a new low, show- Ing a reduction of nearly nine per cent from the rate of 2.3 from the previous year. The agency said one of tha factors in the lowered infant and maternal mortality rates was an increase from 1944 to 1945 In the proportion of babies delivered In hospitals. any equally important Industry, through federal court injunction. It also defines u group of "unfair labor practices" by unions. Senate Republicans had planned to concentrate at the outset on the 1946 Case bill with slight revisions, nnd to tackle more comprehensive legislation later. The widely held belief that Con- gress is in a mood to enact some :orm of strike control or labor regu- atlon was bolstered by an Associat- ed Press poll of Republican and Democratic leaders of both cham- bers. Six of the eight listed such action as while the other two ;ermed it "probable." Only three were "certain" that In- come taxes would be cut but five said a reduction is "probable." Four thought it probable that the 80th Congress would merge the army and the navy, but four said this is "unlikely." None saw much outlook for uni- versal training, three tabbing it "no chance" and the other five "un- likely." On the issue of rent controls, which President Truman wants ex- tended beyond June 30, two of the leaders said they expect them .to be removed, four termed an early end to these curbs unlikely.

text: LANGUAGE Chapter 5 What Are Languages, and What Role Do Languages Play in Culture? • Language: A set of sounds, combinations of sounds, and symbols used for communication • Standard language: A language that is published, widely distributed, and purposefully taught • Role of government in standardizing a language Language and Culture "No one was allowed to speak the language – the Dena'ina language. They [the American government] didn't allow it in the schools, and a lot of the women had married non-native men, and the men said, 'You're American now so you can't speak the language.' So, we became invisible in the community. Invisible to each other. And, then, because we couldn't speak the language – what happens when you can't speak your own language is you have to think with someone else's words, and that's a dreadful kind of isolation [emphasis added]." - Clare Swan, elder, Kenaitze band, Dena'ina Indians 1. What was the purpose of policies like this? Were they effective? 3 The Internet: Globalization of Language 2. What effect will the internet have on language going into the future? Language and Politics 3. What language do you think is spoken in those dark blue areas? What are the political implications? Non-English Speakers Political issue of speakers of Spanish and other languages vs. those desiring English only? Language and Cultural Identity 7 • Federal level: • officially bilingual • Provinces: – Quebec• officially French – New Brunswick – • only province officially bilingual – Other provinces • officially English Quebec vs. Canada 8 Mutual Intelligibility • Isogloss: A geographic boundary within which a particular linguistic feature occurs • Criterion for a language: Speakers can understand each other – Problems • Measuring "mutual intelligibility" • Standard languages and government impact on what is a "language" and what is a "dialect" – Dialect: variant of standard language by ethnicity or region • Vocabulary • Syntax 4. What is Syntax? • Cadence, pace • Pronunciation English Speaking Countries Fig. 5-1: English is the official language in 42 countries, including some in which it is not the most widely spoken language. It is also used and understood in many others. 10 The Queens English • A dialect is a regional variation of a language distinguished by distinctive vocabulary, spelling, and pronunciation. • English has an especially large number of dialects. • One particular dialect of English, the one associated with upper-class Britons living in the London area, is recognized in much of the Englishspeaking world as the standard form of British speech, known as British Received Pronunciation (BRP). 11 Differences between British and American English • The earliest colonists were most responsible for the dominant language patterns that exist today in the English-speaking part of the Western Hemisphere. 12 Differences in Vocabulary and Spelling • • • • • • • English in the United States and England evolved independently (Isolation) during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. U.S. English differs from that of England in three significant ways: vocabulary, spelling, and pronunciation. The vocabulary is different because settlers in America encountered many new objects and experiences, which were given names borrowed from Native Americans. As new inventions appeared, they acquired different names on either side of the Atlantic. Spelling diverged because of a strong national feeling in the United States for an independent identity. Noah Webster, the creator of the first comprehensive American dictionary and grammar books, was not just a documenter of usage, he had an agenda. Webster argued that spelling and grammar reforms would help establish a national language, reduce cultural dependence on England, and inspire national pride. 13 Differences in Pronunciation • Differences in pronunciation between British and U.S. speakers are immediately recognizable. • Interaction between the two groups was largely confined to exchange of letters and other printed matter rather than direct speech. • Surprisingly, pronunciation has changed more in England than in the United States. • People in the United States do not speak "proper" English because when the colonists left England, "proper" English was not what it is today. 14 British Slang Words Below are a few slang words commonly used in Britain. • • • • • • • • • Bloke - man. 'John is a nice bloke to know.' Botched - poor quality repairs. 'He made a botched job of fixing the television.' Bottle - courage. 'He doesn't have the bottle to ask her.' Cheesed Off - fed up Chuck it down - to rain, often heavily. 'It is going to chuck it down soon.' Chuffed - If you are chuffed, you are happy with something. 'I was chuffed to win a medal!' Daft - Crazy / stupid Dosh - Money / cash 'I haven't got much dosh to give you.' Gobsmacked - Incredibly amazed. 'I was gobsmacked when I saw my birthday presents.' • • • • • • Gutted - Not happy because of an event that has occurred that didn't go your way. 'I was gutted when I didn't win the race' Jammy - Used in place of lucky when describing someone else. 'He was very jammy winning the lottery'. Scrummy - Delicious. Shortened from scrumptious. 'The food was very scrummy' Skint - Broke. No money. 'I'm skint, I wont be able to buy the DVD today.' to Snog - to long kiss Telly - Television 'I watched the news on the telly last night.' 15 Dialects in the United States • • • • • Major differences in U.S. dialects originated because of differences in dialects among the original settlers. The original American settlements can be grouped into three areas: New England, Middle Atlantic, and Southeastern. Two-thirds of the New England colonists were Puritans from East Anglia in southeastern England. About half of the southeastern settlers came from southeast England, although they represented a diversity of social-class backgrounds. The immigrants to the Middle Atlantic colonies were more diverse because most of the settlers came from the north rather than the south of England or from other countries. 16 Dialects in the Eastern U.S. Fig. 5-4: Hans Kurath divided the eastern U.S. into three dialect regions, whose distribution is similar to that of house types (Fig. 4-9). 17 Minor Dialects Today 18 Example of Dialect What American Do You Speak? http://www.alphadictionary.com/articles/yankee test.html Provide a summary of your results. http://www.pbs.org/speak/seatosea/officialamer ican/ Should the Us have an official Language?

Brought to New World by British colonies in 1600s. Has become an important global lingua franca. 34 India • 4 language families – only Indo-European & Dravidian have a significant number of speakers. 35 Indo-European Language Family Fig. 5-5: The main branches of the Indo-European language family include Germanic, 36 Romance, Balto-Slavic, and Indo-Iranian. Germanic Branch of Indo-European • • English and German are both languages in the West Germanic group. West Germanic is further divided into High Germanic and Low Germanic subgroups, so named because they are found in high and low elevations within present-day Germany. – High German, spoken in the southern mountains of Germany, is the basis for the modern standard German language. – English is classified in the Low Germanic subgroup. – The Germanic language branch also includes North Germanic languages, spoken in Scandinavia. – The four Scandinavian languages—Swedish, Danish, Norwegian, and Icelandic—all derive from Old Norse. Fig. 5-6: The Germanic branch today is divided into North and West Germanic 37 groups. English is in the West Germanic group. Indo-Iranian Branch of Indo-European The branch of the Indo-European language family with the most speakers is Indo-Iranian, more than 100 individual languages divided into an eastern group (Indic) and a western group (Iranian). 38 Indic (Eastern) Group of Indo-Iranian Language Branch • The most widely used languages in India, as well as in the neighboring countries of Pakistan and Bangladesh, belong to the Indic group of the Indo-Iranian branch of IndoEuropean. • Approximately one-third of Indians, mostly in the north, use an Indic language called Hindi. • Hindi is spoken many different ways—and therefore could be regarded as a collection of many individual languages but there is only one official way to write the language, using a script called Devanagari. 39 Pakistan • Pakistan's principal language, Urdu, is spoken very much like Hindi but is written with the Arabic alphabet, a legacy of the fact that most Pakistanis are Muslims, and their holiest book (the Quran) is written in Arabic. • Hindi, originally a variety of Hindustani spoken in the area of New Delhi, grew into a national language in the nineteenth century when the British encouraged its use in government. 40 South Asian Languages and Language Families Fig. 5-7: Indo-European is the largest of four main language families in South Asia. 41 The country of India has 18 official languages. Iranian (Western) Group of IndoIranian Language Branch • Indo-Iranian languages spoken in Iran and neighboring countries form a separate group from Indic. • The major Iranian group languages include Persian (sometimes called Farsi) in Iran, Pathan in eastern Afghanistan and western Pakistan, and Kurdish, used by the Kurds of western Iran, northern Iraq, and eastern Turkey. • These languages are written in the Arabic alphabet. 42 Balto-Slavic Branch of Indo-European • Slavic was once a single language, but differences developed in the seventh century A.D. when several groups of Slavs migrated from Asia to different areas of Eastern Europe. 43 East Slavic and Baltic Groups of BaltoSlavic Language Branch • After Russian, Ukrainian and Belarusian (sometimes written Byelorussian) are the two most important East Slavic languages. • The desire to use languages other than Russian was a major drive in the Soviet Union breakup a decade ago. 44 West and South Slavic Groups of BaltoSlavic Language Branch • The most spoken West Slavic language is Polish, followed by Czech and Slovak. • The latter two are quite similar, and speakers of one can understand the other. • The two most important South Slavic languages are Serbo-Croatian and Bulgarian. • Although Serbs and Croats speak the same language, they use different alphabets. • Slovene is the official language of Slovenia, while Macedonian is used in the former Yugoslav republic of Macedonia. 45 Romance Branch of Indo-European Fig. 5-8: The Romance branch includes three of the world's 12 most widely spoken languages (Spanish, French, and Portuguese), as well as a number of smaller languages and dialects. 46 The Languages of Europe • Romance languages • Germanic languages • Slavic languages Isolated Languages • An isolated language is a language unrelated to any other and therefore not attached to any language family. • Isolated languages arise through lack of interaction with speakers of other languages. 49 A Pre-Indo-European Survivor: Basque • The best example of an isolated language in Europe is Basque. • Basque is spoken by 1 million people in the Pyrenees Mountains. 50 The Case of Euskera Spoken by the Basque and in no way related to any other language family in Europe An Unchanging Language: Icelandic • Unlike Basque, Icelandic is related to other languages. • Icelandic's significance is that over the past thousand years it has changed less than any other in the Germanic branch. 52 Languages of Subsaharan Africa • Dominant language family: Niger-Congo – Relatively recent migration – Continued recognizable similarities among subfamilies • Displacement of Khoisan family, now in southwestern Africa Nigeria • More than 400 languages • Nigeria a colonial creation • Choice of English as "official" language rather than any indigenous language How Do Languages Diffuse? • • • • • • Human interaction Print distribution Migration Trade Rise of nation-states Colonialism Elizabeth J. Leppman Effects of Spatial Interaction • Lingua franca: A language used among speakers of different languages for trade and commerce • Pidgin language: A language created when people combine parts of two or more languages into a simplified structure and vocabulary • Creole language: A pidgin language that has developed a more complex structure and vocabulary and has become the native language of a group of people Multilingualism • Monolingual state: A country in which only one language is spoken • Multilingual state: A country in which more than one language is in use • Official language: Government-selected language or languages to try to enhance communication in a multilingual state Global Language • English as lingua franca for – Commerce – Science – Travel – Business – Popular culture • Continued use of native languages for dayto-day activities English: An Example of a Lingua Franca • • • • • A language of international communication (internet) is known as a lingua franca. The term, which means language of the Franks, was originally applied by Arab traders during the Middle Ages to describe the language they used to communicate with Europeans, whom they called Franks. A group that learns English or another lingua franca may learn a simplified form, called a pidgin language. Two groups construct a pidgin language by learning a few of the grammar rules and words of a lingua franca, while mixing in some elements of their own languages. Other than English, modern lingua franca languages include Swahili in East Africa, Hindustani in South Asia, and Russian in the former Soviet Union. 60 Global Dominance of English • One of the most fundamental needs in a global society is a common language for communication. • Increasingly in the modern world, the language of international communication is English. • When well-educated speakers of two different languages wish to communicate with each other in countries such as India or Nigeria, they frequently use English. 61 Development of English Adopted Words Germanic Tribes (Germany/Denmark) • kindergarten, angst, noodle, pretzel Vikings (Norway) • take, they, reindeer, window Normans (French) • renaissance, mansion, village, guardian 62 Diffusion of English 1. People from England establishing colonizes. 2. Seventeenth century: 1. North America 2. Ireland 3. Eighteenth century 1. South Asia 2. South Pacific, 4. Nineteenth century 1. Southern Africa. 5. More recently, the United States has been responsible for diffusing English to several places. 63 Invasions of England 5th–11th centuries Fig. 5-2: The groups that brought what became English to England included Jutes, Angles, Saxons, and Vikings. The Normans later brought French vocabulary to English.64 Basis of English • English originated with three invading groups who settled in different parts of Britain. (Anglo's – Saxon's - Jutes) • The language each spoke was the basis of distinct regional dialects of Old English. 65 African-American Lingua Franca • • • • • Examples include dialects spoken by AfricanAmericans and residents of Appalachia. African-American slaves preserved a distinctive dialect in part to communicate in a code not understood by their white masters. In the twentieth century living in racially segregated neighborhoods within northern cities and attending segregated schools, many blacks preserved their distinctive dialect. That dialect has been termed Ebonics, a combination of ebony and phonics. The American Speech, Language and Hearing Association has classified Ebonics as a distinct dialect, with a recognized vocabulary, grammar, and word meaning. 66 Franglais • The French are particularly upset with the increasing worldwide domination of English. • French is an official language in 26 countries and for hundreds of years served as the lingua franca for international diplomats. • The widespread use of English in the French language is called franglais, a combination of francais and anglais, the French words for French and English. 67 Spanglish • Spanglish is a richer integration of English with Spanish than the mere borrowing of English words. • New words have been invented in Spanglish that do not exist in English but would be useful if they did. • Spanglish has become especially widespread in popular culture, such as song lyrics, television, and magazines aimed at young Hispanic women, but it has also been adopted by writers of serious literature. 68 • One Global Language? • Esperanto Experiment – occurred in early 1900s – based on Latin & other Eur. languages – failed – not a global tongue (Indo-Eur.), lacked practical utility • English – becoming a lingua franca of the world (commerce and science) 69 What Role Does Language Play in Making Places? • Place: The uniqueness of a location, what people do in a location, what they create, how they impart a certain character, a certain imprint on the location • Toponym: A place name – Imparts a certain character on a place – Reflects the social processes in a place – Can give a glimpse of the history of a place Changing Toponyms Major reasons people change toponyms • After decolonization • After a political revolution • To commodify or brand a place • To memorialize people or events

Cautivadora Hammock ordered July 1 2013 thru Living Social site never arrives Internet
Does your business have a bad reputation?

I ordered the portable hammock that was advertised on Living Social through Cautivadora July 1. Received a confirmation from Cautivadora within the week and then a shipping confirmation on 8/1/2013. On 8/16, I received an email from the company saying that the order was being shipped via Federal Express and if I did not receive an confirmation with tracking number from Fed Express, to call the Living Social helpline.
After waiting several days for an email from Fed Express, I tried the L.S. #. Got a recording that indicated no one was available to take call. Wrote email to Cautivadora customer service to find out what to do & never got a reply. Tried calling the L.S. number again & recording said the line was disabled.
So I wrote to customer service at Living Social describing what was happening. They did respond & said they would look into it. I forwarded them all the emails I had from Cautivadora. I asked if they screened their vendors since I had found several complaints against this company.
The answer from Living Social was to refund my 59.00 which is not what I was requestiing. I wanted them to find out what happended to the order & to check on this company that they promoted. I am seething. I could've bought a portable hammock a week ago & resisted since I had already ordered this one & had indications that it was on its way.
Last time I do anything with Living Social. They dropped the ball & did not support this customer.

England's selectors pluck fewer names out of thin air these days than they used to. Way back in 1906 a certain Arnold Alcock from Guy's Hospital was chosen to face South Africa. The moment he took the field it became apparent he was out of his depth; it later transpired a clerical error had led to him receiving a call-up instead of Liverpool's Lancelot Slocock. Unsurprisingly Alcock never won another cap.
On closer examination, however, the choice of Nick Easter to face Italy on Saturday is not quite the bolt from the blue it might seem. Admittedly the 28-year-old was only on the bench for England's A team, the Saxons, against Italy A last Friday in Exeter - hardly the most obvious fast-track to stardom. But talk to anyone at his club Harlequins and they will confirm what Brian Ashton suspects, that England have picked the right man.
As recently as last month Quins' director of rugby Dean Richards was reflecting on the make-up of Ashton's first senior squad and wondering aloud why his 6ft 4in back-row forward was not further up the pecking order. Yesterday, the former No8 could not have been happier to discover his advice had been heeded. "I'm delighted Nick has been called up as he has been the form player at Quins for the last two seasons. He came late into Premiership rugby but has done extremely well and fully deserves his chance." If Richards, who won 48 caps in the England back-row, thinks Easter is a good egg, it is clearly enough for Ashton.
Last Friday Easter grasped his chance after coming on for a rumbustious last 20 minutes as a replacement for Leicester's young No8 Jordan Crane. He is not one of those anonymous forwards who do their work largely out of sight; he crashes around, makes his physical presence felt and, but for the lack of a Geordie accent, could almost be Mick Skinner in disguise.
It was not long ago that Easter could be found playing for Rosslyn Park, the Villagers club in South Africa and Orrell. His brother, Mark, plays for Northampton but the elder Easter opted to join Quins on a three-month trial in August 2004. He scored two tries in a man-of-the-match performance against Saracens in November that year and has now made 74 club appearances. He was named player of the year and won the award last season, too, when he scored 19 tries in helping steer Quins back into the Premiership.
His England A call-up last month, though, was his first representative summons of any description. "I was asleep on Tuesday afternoon for about three hours and, when I woke up, I got a text message from a mate congratulating me on the call-up. I thought it was a wind-up until I checked on Teletext and saw my name."
Nor did he see yesterday's call coming, with the likes of James Forrester and Richard Hill floating around and Wasps' James Haskell being picked ahead of him to start at No6 against Italy A. Last week he was also more preoccupied with defending himself in the wake of his sending-off against Bath 10 days ago for two yellow cards, the second for argu- ing with the referee over a disallowed try.
He was subsequently cleared by a Rugby Football Union disciplinary panel, a decision which allowed him to take his place on the bench at Exeter. Little did he know then that Joe Worsley's sore neck and Lewis Moody's shoulder problem would leave Ashton with a vacancy. The serious knee injury to Bristol's Dan Ward-Smith also did his own cause no harm and it would seem that Worcester's Pat Sanderson has now slipped off the radar. You could say that all Easter's Christmases have come at once.

I want to learn how to simulate data [generate results given certain assumptions about distributions for example]. Anyone know any good introductions to this?

GretaGarbo (01-09-2017), noetsi (01-10-2017)
Come on now Noetsi, you know what my response is going to be. The wicklin book. You still don't have access to iml. Which I don't use iml much. I wonder if the free version of SAS has iml. But as i said, when I simulate I don't typically use iml.
Stop cowardice, ban guns!
This one is geared towards social scientists and it's in SAS so maybe it'd be helpful?
for all your psychometric needs! https://psychometroscar.wordpress.com/about/
Spunky, I have always been intrigued by that book and I think it could provide a good overview. Though, I think some of the (coding) procedures it uses may be slightly outdated.
I found a link to Spunky's book:
Stop cowardice, ban guns!
I have worked extensively with the Wicklin book. I have one of my methods tomes where it is the star (63 pages single spaced lol). Unfortunately it is heavily geared to IML which I don't have. Given that its not in the paid SAS I doubt it is in the free SAS (although I know nothing of a free SAS).
I was surprised Dragan's book used Mathematica code (which I had never heard of before today) rather than R
HLSMITH I would be careful about that link. According to my never wrong virus checker it has SPYWARE. I am sure you are right any SAS book written in 2002 uses outdated code, but at least it will give me information on SIMULATION.

"The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limits."
I like this book much better. I read it (yes, I like reading textbooks as if they were novels, LOL). I liked it very much, but it's in R so I don't think noetsi will find much use for it behind maybe getting some general concepts.
for all your psychometric needs! https://psychometroscar.wordpress.com/about/
Actually I use R books all the time. One of the first books on time series I read was the Little R Book for Time Series. I just got done reading Financial Time Series with S+ . You don't have to understand the code to get something of substance out of these books. A lot of econometric books have some software in them, I almost never know the software (Eview is also big in econometrics).
With a doctorate and three master's I would not have the confidence to get in a fight with a researcher

Izdihar went out onto the balcony. She'd had little sleep after she'd gone back to bed, gripped with a mounting panic. She'd never expected this. Somehow she'd always thought that once her father returned, everything would be fine, all her problems would be solved. For as long as she could remember, as a little girl growing up without a mother, her father had been the one person she looked up to, went to for help. He always knew what to do. He always protected her. As a child she could snuggle in his strong arms and know that nothing could hurt her. Seeing that helpless look on his face the night before had shocked her more than she could say. Things must be worse than she'd thought.
She stared out over the desert, to the grey mountains in the distance. Just what had he been doing on his trips over the mountains? It had to be important, or he would never have left the city. He must have had some sort of plan. Well, whatever it was, she thought, he must have failed.
Was there no hope then? She buried her face in her hands, haunted by the image of her father's hopeless face.
"What am I going to do?" she murmured. She felt tears flood her eyes, and a few sobs escaped her.
She shot round, immediately on guard. A young man had come round the corner of the balcony, which ran around the outside of the tower in a square. He was in the deep blue and cream uniform of the palace guards. He was familiar; he often guarded her rooms. She sniffed and wiped her eyes.
"Here..." He produced a handkerchief from his pocket and held it out to her. She took it and smiled, blinking back more tears. "Thank you..."
"Thank you Faruq."
He smiled back and waited patiently for her to finish with it. She stared ahead, into the sands of the desert.
"This is my favourite place to stand guard," said Faruq. "I love being able to see out so far..."
"It's where I come to think," said Izdihar. "It's peaceful out there."
They stood in silence for a few minutes, looking over the balcony.
"Faruq, my father can trust you, right? You are loyal to him?"
"I would risk my life for my kingdom, and for my King," he said earnestly.
"But not everyone would?" She looked at the guard.
He hesitated, looking down at the ledge. "There are rumours. People are paying a lot of money for... information."
Izdihar closed her eyes and breathed deeply, her heart heavy, trying not to cry again.
"How many? Be honest with me. How many are there that we can trust?"
"I couldn't say..." She met his eye and he looked uncomfortable. "There are a small group I would trust with my life. Apart from that... I don't know who I can trust anymore."
"I was afraid of that." There was silence. She handed him back the handkerchief.
"Thank you." He made to turn away, then paused. "Princess... It's going to be alright. Your father will put things right. I know he will. He's a great king."
"But what if he doesn't?" Izdihar turned to him, fear strangling her voice. "He may be a great king but he's only human..." She knew she shouldn't be saying this to some guard, but she couldn't help it, it had just spilled out.
"Of course he is. That's why I have faith in him," said Faruq.
Izdihar gave him a small smile. She felt instinctively that she could trust him.
"If there is anything you need..." said Faruq, and carried on his patrol of the balcony.

This was a swell hotel! A truly fine fella working the front desk! Thank you for the hospitality!
Booked a twin got a very hard single extra bed. Reception staff very helpful and kind. Breakfast ok too.
Hotel room was poor. The furniture was old and tatty. The bathroom fixtures were poor, esp the malfunctioning shower door. The staff were friendly and helpful. Virtues are handy for airport and low cost.
Is the description of this hotel not correct? Tell us

Chapter Two
Lynn Fitzgerald opened the door into her room and skipped in. She was an eleven year old girl from a rather wealthy family. She had curly black hair down to her shoulders and she was quite small. She was wearing a pink dress which came down to her knees with a red bow in her hair.
"Lynn....Lynn" her sister called from the main room. She came into Lynn's room.
"There you are!"
Lynn's sister, Mary, was around five foot tall. She had short black hair and was slim. She wore a white dress which came down to her feet and she wore high heels. She strode into the room and picked Lynn up and hugged her close.
"This is it Lynn, we are finally on our way, finally leaving Ireland".
"But I like Ireland....Why do we have to leave???"
"Because.....It's time for something new.....Anyway, you might like America"
Her sister left the room then to oversee the unpacking of the cases. Lynn left their quarters to explore. She went right along the corridor and up a flight of steps. She bumped into a crewman when she reached the top.
"Scuse me" he muttered and ran on, clearly in a hurry. She skipped along the corridor she found herself on and went through a door at the end. She went up the small flight of steps she found herself on and emerged onto the deck.
A cool sea breeze caressed her face as she began skipping once more. She went to the rail and pulled herself up so she could look over. She saw the harbour receding in the distance, the people there fighting, gunshots firing.
But she was away from that now so she looked away from the fighting and cast her eyes down to the water instead. She watched her reflection in the clear water, face bright with a smile. Laughing as a fish broke the surface, scattering her reflection, and was joined by five more. She saw the fish swimming alongside the boat, lost in their world.
She smiled again as she turned away. Listening to the men shouting orders as others hurried to obey she laughed again, full of joy. She skipped off again weaving in and out between poles and ropes, all the time looking around her, curious about everything that was going on around her.
She stopped skipping for a moment when she saw two boys hugging each other tightly and sobbing. She wondered what was wrong. She was about to go over to them to find out when Mary appeared at behind her.
"Lynn, come on we have to get you your bath. We have a dinner to attend this evening and we must look our best".
"Alright sis" Lynn said.
She looked once more in the direction of the boys crying, wondering once again what was wrong. Then she turned and skipped away after Mary.

Brazil Develops Cost-Effective Alternative to Gasoline
"After nearly three decades of work, Brazil has succeeded where much of the industrialized world has failed: It has developed a cost-effective alternative to gasoline. Along with new offshore oil discoveries, that's a big reason Brazil expects to become energy independent this year."
The alternative? "...ethanol made from sugar cane, an option that's available at 29,000 gas stations from Rio to the Amazon…Even though ethanol gets less mileage than gasoline, in Brazil it's still cheaper per mile driven. As a result, ethanol now accounts for as much as 20% of Brazil's transport fuel market."
"Yet countries wanting to follow Brazil's example may be leery about following its methods. Military and civilian leaders laid the groundwork by mandating ethanol use and dictating production levels. They bankrolled technology projects costing billions of dollars, despite criticism they were wasting money. Brazil ended most government support for its sugar industry in the late 1990s, forcing sugar producers to become more efficient and helping lower the cost of ethanol's raw material. That's something Western countries are loath to do, preferring to support domestic farmers."
