text: Translation Studies 10. The teaching of translation Krisztina Károly, Spring, 2006 Sources: Klaudy, 2003 Main questions: Can translation and interpretation be taught? What is it exactly that can/cannot be taught? How can the results of translation studies be applied in organising translation courses and making the teaching of translation more efficient? The relationship between the study and the teaching of translation: translation studies grew out of the needs of teaching translation and training translators James Holmes (1972, creator of the term "TS") identifies 3 branches within the field: (1) theoretical (2) descriptive (3) applied TS: translator training, translation aids, translation policy, and translation criticism Main sources of knowledge applied in the teaching of translation: General conclusions: translation theory research Specific solutions: translators' intuitive work, experience (no rules, generalizations!) What can be of use in teaching? James Holmes's (1972) classification: Theoretical TS general cannot be applied in teaching partial (special or concrete) CAN be applied in teaching! - medium-restricted TS (man/machine translates) - area-restricted TS (languages involved) - text-type restricted TS (text type being translated) etc. Descriptive TS product-, process-, function-oriented TS. The role of contrastive linguistics in the teaching of translation: CL comparison of specific language pairs and text types (in primary communication, NOT secondary = translation) Klaudy (2003): TS looks at translation in a complex manner (Lic + extra-Lic factors influencing the process of translation) Contrastive Lics and contrastive text Lics can be helpful only in the analysis of the Lic factors of translation, but in this they have a crucial function. The translational "behaviour" of languages and transfer operations: Klaudy (1999): depending on the similarities and differences between Ls a certain type of "translational behaviour" (cf. "friendly" and "unfriendly" L pairs); e.g., English: friendly with German, less with French, not with Hungarian depending on the L pair and the directions of translation, the typological features of particular Ls determine the difficulties of translation the behaviour of L pairs towards each other determine some of the transfer operations as well important in teaching The transfer competence of translators Consists of five elements: (1) linguistic competence, (2) subject-related competence, (3) inter-cultural competence, (4) transfer competence (5) communicative competence "competence": a particular type of knowledge (language proficiency, subject knowledge, knowledge about culture) skills (transfer skills, communication skills) Transfer competence part of the translator's professional competence, can develop strategies to overcome problems resulting from the differences between the two languages can "freely move" between the two Ls: possesses general translation strategies + particular language-pair-specific strategies! (merely a mono- or bilingual speaker) Modelling the process of translation A translator, a professional bilingual person, differs from a speaker of language "A" or language "B" in that he/she knows and consciously or instinctively operates two rule-systems: (1) He/she knows the rules according to which signs of language "A" are used by speakers of language "A" to refer to reality ("A" system of rules); (2) He/she knows the rules according to which signs of language "B" are used by speakers of language "B" to refer to reality ("B" system of rules). Modelling the process of translation, cont. Process: the translator, with the help of the language "A" rule system, decodes the language "A" text and reaches reality (denotative model) or a semantic deep structure (one subtype of the transformational model); re-encodes this reality with the help of the language "B" system of rules to ultimately reach the language "B" text. Path: language "A" reality language "B" The characteristics of the "C" system of rules: How come that Hungarian texts translated from a FL differ (linguistically) from original Hungarian texts? 2 explanations: (1) The translator goes down to the deep structure from the language "A" surface, but then takes the wrong path towards the language "B" surface; or (2) The translator does not go down to the deep structure from the language "A" surface, but directly switches to the language "B" surface. In other words, he/she creates for him-/herself an intuitive translational rule system, a so-called "C" system of rules, and, consciously or unconsciously, applies this system during his/her work. How can this "C" system of rules be characterised? It is (1) abstract while the rules of systems "A" and "B" relate L signs to reality, rules in the system "C" relate L signs to L signs; (2) subjective while the rules of systems "A" and "B" are acquired within an institutional framework by speakers of language "A" and "B", rules in the system "C" are created intuitively by translators on the basis of their own experience; (3) incidental the "C" system of rules may be distorted if the translator has received inadequate training in one of his/her Ls, or if he/she has received good training in both Ls but for some reason cannot relate them appropriately. The dilemma of translator training How should translator training deal with this "C" system of rules? it must reckon with the existence of the "C" system of rules. Two alternatives: (1) It can try to eliminate the "C" system of rules, and discourage translators from believing in a direct relationship between Ls "A" and "B" translators should not bother with Lic form, but should try and grasp content (sense, meaning) (2) It can try to improve and refine the "C" system of rules, accepting the assumption that some form of relationship does exist, but in a considerably more complicated form than the one intuitively created by the translators language "A" effects should be avoided by proposing a more sensitive and complicated system of relations (!) The benefits of linguistic awareness-raising for teachers of translation: in designing translation courses, selecting texts to be translated, evaluating translations, and justifying teachers' and readers' corrections for translator trainees: without Lics only very lowlevel generalisations can be made from the translators' experience (e.g., "this does not sound nice in Hungarian", "we say this differently in Hungarian", "this doesn't sound OK", or "maybe you should phrase it differently") the teacher should explain his/her corrections by highlighting the differences between the two L systems and their typical usages (= frame of reference in the decisions of future translators) for practicing translators: as a result of being aware of the regularities of Ls, the translator can multiply his/her own transfer experience + contributes to increasing the prestige of the profession (professional explanations of decisions) ***

Domestic conveyancers are experiencing a sudden influx of business over the summer, matching reports that the house-buyers market is at the dawn of a revival.
According to a straw poll of law firms, those in the south of England are optimistic about the future of domestic conveyancing and in some cases are recruiting extra staff to cope with demand.
Lawyers say that because firms in the South were the first to experience the effects of the recession in the early Nineties they are likely to be the first to recover from it.
Jonathan Holyhead, partner in charge of the private client department at Southampton firm Hepherd Winstanley & Pugh, said it had been "extremely busy" over the past four months. He said "pent-up demand" and an influx of business meant the domestic conveyancing department was looking to recruit another practitioner.
Bristol firm Lawrence Tucketts confirmed it was also look- ing for extra staff in conveyancing and Guildford firm Barlows said it would be keeping on one of its trainees to work in conveyancing for the first time in years.
Jeremy Shulman, senior partner at Shulmans in Leeds, said: "The recession blanket moved off the South first. Although conveyancing business is ticking over in the North we are not experiencing a bonanza."
Commercial conveyancers, who have reported a rise in work for some time, said they had noticed an increase in work from housing developers, suggesting a demand for new housing over the past few months.
David Mears, partner at Bristol firm Laytons, said he had witnessed trends reminiscent of the Eighties' boom. He cited the case of a client selling an investment property which it had bought only three months earlier.
Former vice-president of the Law Society, Robert Sayer, of Ealing firm Sayer Moore & Co, agreed that domestic conveyancing work had perked up.
But he added that there was still the problem of fees. "There's no point in a firm taking on lots of new work if it doesn't get paid properly," he said. "Things will not improve for conveyancers if they continue to operate as cottage industries with cut-price services."

At the half: Dolphins 7, Patriots 6
Well, that'll teach us to expect a shootout!
To look at this a little more realistically, neither team has exactly been shut down offensively. Miami has run up 169 yards, and New England has 148 yards. But each defense has played well enough in spots to keep the score down. That, and each offense appears to be protecting its offense by going on long, drawn-out drives. Here's some more of what we're seeing …
1) The Patriots clearly have put the emphasis on stopping Brandon Marshall, bracketing him with a safety floating over the top of him on most snaps. And that's opened things up underneath for the old Patriot killer Davone Bess, who has registered six catches for 71 yards and the Dolphins' lone touchdown.
2) BenJarvus Green-Ellis has again been workmanlike, and is reading things well and taking what's there. He was the key guy, really, on the Patriots' 16-play field goal drive that stunted the Dolphins' momentum, and though he has just 32 yards on his eight carries, he's helping keep the Patriots in manageable down-and-distance situations and extending possessions. New England's taking advantage of Miami on the edges of the defensive front.
3) The Patriots have struggled to contain Cameron Wake in pass-rush situations, and it's been Sebastian Vollmer who's been most victimized, though Matt Light was called for a hold on the Dolphins' pressure specialist. On one two-play sequence, Wake sped past Vollmer to pressure Brady on one snap, and Vollmer missed his assignment (or that is, at least, what it looked like) and Wake buried Brady for a snap on the next.
4) Vince Wilfork seemed surly all week. And he's been disruptive in the running game tonight, to say the least. The Patriots have also moved him around, playing him plenty at left defensive end over Miami right tackle Vernon Carey. That makes sense, because Miami figured to have an edge running outside with Carey and bookend Jake Long, so the move of Wilfork mitigates the issue a bit.
5) A couple of pretty impressive picks by Rob Ninkovich. He was shockingly deep in coverage on the first one (for him), and made a nice read to undercut Patrick Cobbs and dive for the second one. Both interceptions came just as Miami was building offensive momentum. Both huge, to say the least.

Australian navy personnel who allegedly physically and sexually assaulted colleagues on board the HMAS Ballarat as part of an apparent hazing ritual which got out of hand will escape prosecution after the Australian Defence Force Investigative Service (Adfis) found there was "insufficient evidence".
In November allegations came to light of an unknown number of navy personnel assaulting young male sailors, including some victims who were allegedly "set upon" by their colleagues, stripped and assaulted with objects including a water bottle, according to one female former sailor.
Defence immediately launched an inquiry, and investigators and navy personnel from the sexual misconduct prevention and response office were sent to HMAS Ballarat, which was carrying out border protection duties north of Christmas Island.
On Friday afternoon the Defence Department announced that the evidence collected by Adfis and referred to the director of military prosecutions (DMP) was deemed "insufficient … to provide a reasonable prospect of conviction in relation to the allegations".
An administrative inquiry, which began in December, will continue.
"The inquiry officer, appointed by the chief of navy, will now conclude the administrative inquiry to determine if administrative action is warranted and to identify any broader procedural or cultural issues that may require further action by navy," the statement said.
The allegations were raised by members of HMAS Ballarat's company and reported up the navy chain of command.
"I applaud any member of the navy who has the courage to raise concerns like these and I encourage anyone who is aware of, or who experiences, unacceptable behaviour to do the same," chief of navy vice-admiral Ray Griggs said at the time.
Defence was forced to confirm details of the abuse after a former sailor, known only as Bridget, told Network Ten her friends still serving in the navy had asked her to come forward, because people were scared.
In one incident, a sailor was left with a bleeding rectum after being anally penetrated by a whiteboard marker, she claimed. Fairfax had previously reported an unnamed defence source as saying it was a case of initiation rituals that got out of hand.
"If it happened in a normal workplace, the police would be called, charges would be laid," she said.
Defence would not comment further on details of the investigation nor on the DMP's decision not to seek convictions.
"As demonstrated I remain committed to be as open and transparent as possible on this issue without compromising any investigative or inquiry process," Griggs said.
"We do not tolerate unacceptable behaviour in navy because, by its very nature, it damages our people and our effectiveness. This impacts on all levels of the navy and ultimately our ability to conduct operations and achieve our mission."

Maxxie: sickMature
When I've calmed down, Alex sits beside me and holds me in a hug. I don't say anything, apart from moaning a couple of times that I want a cigarette, and Alex only speaks to tell me he's not letting me smoke. A phone rings and I look up as Caleb reaches down and pulls his mobile out of his jeans.
I don't really listen to what's said, all I know is that it results in Hadley appearing. Caleb lets him in and I barely look up as he walks in. He goes straight to the corner of the room, sits on the floor and hugs his waist.
A bubble of laughter rises in me, but it dies before it reaches my lips. How fucked up can this get? I want to go and hug him, but I can't seem to make myself move. Caleb kind of stands there awkwardly, not knowing what to do. I lick my lips and try to make my voice work.
"I'm sorry, Hads," I mumble. He doesn't say anything, hugging himself tighter and I bite my lip slightly. "I didn't mean to fuck everything up more..." I don't know what to say. The only thing I can seem to think of is just to say sorry over and over.
"I'm gonna be sick," Hadley says quietly. Caleb sits with him and rubs his back, talking softly.
"Hey, shh, you're not gonna be sick." If he's gonna be sick, wouldn't it be a good idea to move him to the bathroom?
I dislodge Alex's arms from around me and walk over to Hadley.
"If he's going to be sick, then he should be in the bathroom," I say, offering him my hand to help him up.
"This is my fault, isn't it?" he says, still talking quietly.
"No, it's mine. C'mon. Bathroom." He shakes his head and I sigh, sitting down next to him.
"I promised I'd stop them if things got too far. I-I said I'd get in the way. But I didn't. I just let them..."
"I shouldn't have snapped."
"I saw it coming and I didn't do anything," he mumbles and I put my arm around him, hugging him the same way Alex was hugging me. He shakes his head again and starts breathing faster.
"Take it easy, buddy," Caleb says, worried. I take my arms back from around him and kneel in front of him. Putting my hands on his shoulders, I try to get some kind of eye contact as I talk.
"Hadley, it's okay," I say firmly, lifting one hand to brush his hair back, "it'll be okay. I'll do my best to fix this."
"I don't wanna go back," he says, hugging his waist even tighter.
"You don't have to. None of us are going to make you." Hadley's eyes close and he bites his lip. I kiss his forehead and pull him to his feet, pulling him over to the toilet. Caleb stands in the doorway, looking worried as I aim Hadley's mouth over the bowl, rubbing his back.
"I'm gonna go call... Y'know, so they don't panic or anything," Caleb says and I just nod. He opens his mouth to say something else, but stops. I glance at him.
"It's the middle of the night, don't you think they're gonna worry?"
"Probably, but that's why you're going to call and tell them he's okay. But maybe don't tell them we're here... Cayden will probably come over and try to get him back again." And we all know how that ended last time.
"I was just gonna tell them he was with me," he says in this kinda grumpy tone and I'm tempted to snap and tell him to fuck off, but I bite it back and shrug, turning my attention back to Hadley. Caleb walks back into the other room and Hadley groans.
"I don't feel so good."
"I know, I'm sorry," I murmur, "I shouldn't have let you get so wasted." But I did, because I'm a fucking idiot. But he shakes his head.
"Booze doesn't make me feel sick." I frown.
"Then why're you feeling sick?"
"I don't know. It started when you and Cayden were shouting at each other." I bite my lip, feeling more and more responsible for this mess by the minute. He shuts his eyes and takes a deep breath.
"Is there- is there anything I can do that might help?"
"A new stomach would be nice," he says, a tiny smile pulling his lips up.
"I'll get on it right away. Anything else?" I smile back slightly.
"Something to knock me out," he groans. I sigh and kiss his cheek.
"I dunno about that, but I can get you a bed." He hums.
"That'll do."
"I'll be back in a few minutes," I promise and get up. I tell Alex to look after him while I get us a room.

The One Mini isn't Pure's tiddliest DAB radio - it had pocket offerings like the Move and Move 2500 after all - but it is the smallest one designed to double-up as a lounge or kitchen unit too. This second edition of the dinky DAB improves build quality and looks, while keeping the price at rock-bottom.
DAB radio has its problems - it's power-hungry, offers questionable sound quality in the UK and gives rubbish signal quality on-the-go - but none of them stop it from being perfect for small home radios. It's less fiddly, and generally cheaper, than internet radio and offers a wider selection of stations than FM. At £49.99, the Pure One Mini is one of the cheapest big-name routes to radio fulfilment.
In terms of pure shape, the Series II edition of the Pure One Mini looks just like the original. It's small, square-ish and not as intensively-styled as some of Pure's wood-bodied models like the Pure Evoke-3.
However, take a closer look and you'll see that this is a significant upgrade. Perhaps the most common complaint about the first One Mini was that it looked and felt cheap compared with Pure's other models. Its blend of a plastic high-gloss finish and bright chromed controls was a bit brash, a bit gaudy. This time, the design has been toned down and classed-up. Both the black and white models now have a matt soft touch finish, and the controls' chrome finish has been clouded to give that shine a more subdued look.
This maturing of the Mini range is a great, if subtle, success. Its body is gloriously smooth to the touch and no longer feels - or looks - particularly cheap. It's still not going to challenge the Evoke series on style, but if that's a big turn-off that's something you can tell just from a picture or two.
The Pure One Mini Series II only supplies the basics in terms of on-body connectivity, but this suits the device perfectly. Along the left edge there's a 3.5mm headphone jack, a 3.5mm auxiliary input and a miniUSB socket. The latter is for software updates.
Around the back is a battery compartment that takes up perhaps a sixth of the device's volume. This may seem like a waste when it could be sacrificed to make the unit even trimmer, but the additional functionality is absolutely worthwhile. The Pure One Mini doesn't take standard batteries, instead requiring the B1 4200mAh battery pack.
This costs £25, is charged by the power adaptor, and lasts for up to 20 hours. With the battery factored-in, the Pure One Mini is still lighter than the Evoke 1-S. There's no carry handle, but the 130x135x60mm body (doesn't take into account the side control knob, but still…) is small enough to hold without one. This is a seriously portable DAB radio.

Hmmm or this other pure model is only £27:
Personally i would go with a one of the docking stations that has dab.
So, £75 for a basic one-speaker radio with just about usable battery life.
I've given up on DAB in disappointment. They cost more, the break down and they have no appreciably benefit beyond the extra channels (most of which are not worth it).
Welcome to the future of radio - it's called the £15 AM/FM radio. It works, the batteries last for months and the sound on FM is every bit as good. And with fair handling it'll last for decades.
While it tunes DAB + Stations it does not play and Pure so far have not made a software upgrade available to correct this. While they have done this for their more expensive models. At this stage I am sorry I bought my ONE mine
So after all is the sound "pro" or "con"...?

Why me.
"OK! Go ahead and die!" I yelled.
I rolled my eyes. Ugly vampire. Fluff beards cove is a deathtrap. I probably should go get her in a while. I sighed and found Talbot who was sound asleep.
What to do what to do.
Maybe I will go buy that wood stake now. Just to be safe. I quick jog to the city took only five minutes. But in that time it had started to cloud up, weirdly shaped patterns of cloud soon consumed the sky. It was quite a sight. As I walked into Aya people started to disappear into there homes. I walked into a nearby store and asked for a issue of Warriors Daily military and economics paper. I payed and folded it into my pocket. The door jingled asI walked out. It was now starting to get windy. I held my hat and walked back to the tree where Talbot was now awake.
"The sky, what happened." Talbot asked.
"Clouds, lots of em."
"That was fast."
"I know."
I looked down at my paper. I knowtisted a dark red page. That is usualy big news. I pulled it out and read.
As summer approaches, all should keep alert in case of a dreaded class 12 tornado hits a major urban area. All realize that a class 12 can last up to a max of 4 hours and spin at nearly 700 kmph. A class 12 is roughly 4 km long and and has never quite been mesured at max hight but it is beleived to be massive! A class 12 may strike at these cities. Orblan, Wenthord, and Aya. Signs of a class 12 are a sudden drop then rise in temperature. And a surge in eletrical activity in clouds that have quickly rolled in.
Oh no.
"ITS A TWISTER! We need to get to my bird! The airbase is nearby! Move fast!"

crystal1949 Review
These curtain rods look great!
I ordered these rods, knowing what look I was trying to achieve. I was changing the sheers I had across our triple window in our living room. I wanted Roman Shades and a panel on each end but I did not want to see an empty rod across the top of the window. These rods seemed like a perfect solution. They were easy to install. We had to attach them to the outside of the window trim since the window trim was curved instead of flat. We attached the rods to a 2 x 4 block of wood we had painted to match the trim so that the rod was far enough away from the shade. It turned out great.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Perfectly

LONDON – One of the most dispiriting features of today's international debates is that the threat to humanity posed by the world's 23,000 nuclear weapons – and by those who would build more of them, or be only too willing to use them – has been consigned to the margin of politics.
US President Barack Obama did capture global attention with his Prague speech in 2009, which made a compelling case for a nuclear weapon-free world. And he did deliver on a major new arms-reduction treaty with Russia, and hosted a summit aimed at reducing the vulnerability of nuclear weapons and materials to theft or diversion.
But nuclear issues still struggle for public resonance and political traction. It would take a brave gambler to bet on ratification of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty by the US Senate any time soon.
The film An Inconvenient Truth won an Academy Award, led to a Nobel Prize for Al Gore, and attracted huge international attention to the disastrous impact of climate change. But Countdown to Zero, an equally compelling documentary, made by the same production team and making shockingly clear how close and how often the world has come to nuclear catastrophe, has come and gone almost without trace.

The hot weather has caused major problems for growers, who have been forced to invest in fridges to try to stop flowers from blooming too early for the show, which opens on May 24. Some gardens have had to be redesigned to include summer varieties never before seen at the show.
"Some have had to downsize their displays or change the whole selection of their plants," said Alexandra Denman, show manager. "It's a major problem," said Matthew Appleby of Horticulture Week. "I've spoken to a lot of growers who say they might not have enough flowers to fill their stand.
"It will mean a different feel to the show, but with brighter colours - it could the most colourful Chelsea we've seen."

Mabel's Shadow
The early morning sun came in through the eastern window of a modest bungalow. Past white curtains, it danced inward upon the back of a human girl.
It was a child's bedroom, decorated with fledgling artistic talent and posters of a kids' show. There was a bunk bed, for one child. Her stuffed animals were scattered upon it, collecting dust.
She had long since stopped playing with them. She was nine now. She had even stopped talking with them. Or maybe it was the other way around.
Mabel had curly brown hair, and far too many freckles by anyone's reckoning.
The window was at the head of her bed, and cast the shadow of her seated form upon the sheets. Her shadow was there, indeed. He was a taller silhouette, at times like these, and smiled at her from upon the sheets.
"How are you, Mabel?"
"I'm fine, Shay," she answered. "Mother's taking us to see a special lady. A sick-e-a-tricksed."
"A psychiatrist?" he asked, with an edge of fear in his voice.
"No, Shay," she told her shadow. "A sickeatricksed."
There was an eerie silence, and it worried those in the room.
She broke it, "And you, Shay? How are you this morning?"
"I'm fine," he told her. "Not as dark as I could be on these white sheets, though. I liked the gray ones."
"Well," she said, folding up her legs and edging towards the ladder, "I have to go now. Gotta eat breakfast quick, Mom's taking me to an early apartment."
As she walked into the kitchen, Mabel's mother looked up at her, "Who were you talking to?"
The kitchen had six lights at odd angles, and thus nobody in the room had any defined shadow.
"Mabel," her mother repeated, "Who were you talking to?"
"Mipsy," she lied. Mabel chewed at the side of her cheek, and her left leg wobbled.
The cat brushed against her mother's denim-covered leg, "No, Mipsy's been in the kitchen with me."
Mabel looked down at the patchy cat.
The cat looked up at her. It had big green eyes, that consumed her sight.
"Oh," she said.
"Mabel, you're too old for imaginary friends. That's why I'm taking you to the appointment with Doctor Wye."
"Excuse me, young lady?"
"Why does he have a funny name? And why do I have to see an appartment with Doctor Wye?"
"App-oint-ment, Mabel. It's like a visit to the dentist, but instead of working in your mouth, Doctor Wye is just going to ask you some questions."
"Oh, all right." she sat down at the table, across from a plate full of two pancakes. Gingerly, she reached for the maple syrup. She loved the taste, and hated the sticky jar. It poured out, generously, drowning her pancakes. Questions aren't so bad, are they?
"Have you seen your father this morning?"
"No," Mabel lied.
"Well, finish up quick, hon. We've gotta go soon."
Ten minutes later, Mabel's mother was leading her outside. The sun cast a shadow behind the girl, as she walked around the car. However, it was eclipsed by the shadow of the minivan.
A boy of her age, from across the street, was riding his bicycle along the sidewalk. He waved, "Hi Mabel!"
"Hello, Greg."
He looked down, as she began to open the back seat door. And, for a second, he saw her shadow. "Hey Shay!" he yelled.
And Shay waved to Greg.
The door slammed, and Mabel got into the car. It roared to life with a turn of a key, and the radio began to play. Mabel's mother was tapping her fingers against the steering wheel.
To the same beat, she felt something hit against her back. She raised her voice, "Mabel, stop kicking my chair!"
"I'm not!"
Mabel liked her mother. She knew better than to kick someone's chair, especially her mother's. She didn't want attention, she had been getting quite enough of that lately, even a doctor.
She liked Shay. And sometimes she didn't. He was smart, and she was dumb. She was strong, and he was weak. She was humble, and he was proud. She was polite, and he was rude. Her shadow was her opposite in every way, but also a reflection of herself. Sometimes a friendly one, sometimes a scary one.
And her mother kept driving, tapping her hands to the rhythm. They passed main streets, and busy intersections. She even had to drive them through an uncommon roundabout. The radio broke into ads, and boredom ensued. Then, it happened again, "Mabel, for God's sake! Stop kicking my chair, or so help me Jesus, I will turn this car around and you won't get any more television for a week!"
"Mom," she pleaded, "I ain't kickin'! I swear!"
"What have I told you about lying, young lady?"
Mabel looked down, glumly, at the shadows of her feet.
"Look, just don't do it, it's only another minute or so. Okay?"
Mabel didn't answer. She just looked out the window, muttering something incoherent under her breath.

Interpreting j-conversion as an expansion rule in the simply-typed -calculus maintains the confluence of reduction in a richer type structure. This use of expansions is supported by categorical models of reduction, where fi-contraction, as the local counit, and j-expansion, as the local unit, are linked by local triangle laws. The latter form reduction loops, but strong normalisation (to the long fij-normal forms) can be recovered by "cutting" the loops.

The Founding of Transparency International
A Global Campaign Against Corruption Takes Form
By Peter Eigen | Innovations: Technology, Governance, Globalization, Transparency International | October 1, 2008
This article is excerpted from the Spring 2008 edition of Innovations: Technology, Governance, Globalization. The full article is also available.
In the early 1990s, I presented a concept for attacking corruption at a retreat in Swaziland of World Bank representatives from all over Africa. I presented it to thirty country directors and the Bank's Vice President for Africa. Everybody there was very excited by my proposals. They said, "Why don't we simply start a task force, which will develop a systematic approach on how we deal with corruption in Africa." We appeared to be on our way.
But a week later I received a memorandum from our legal department stating that the activity I had initiated was totally off limits. It was too political. It was not permitted under the Charter of the Bank.
Rather than abandoning the initiative, our group decided to pursue it as private citizens. We were undeterred.
During my tenure at the World Bank, I made many excellent contacts both within and outside the Bank. The idea had lit a candle in the minds of quite a number of people. I received letters, telexes, visits from interested colleagues, phone calls from people who had heard about the initiative. Building on these contacts, I convened a number of different meetings with overlapping groups of 20 or 30 people.
Among those who expressed interest, there was a core group of ten or so people, who were very closely connected with us from the very beginning. They all had different skills. One was skillful in public relations. Another had been the deputy inspector general of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID); he was like a policeman, attuned to any the clues that would indicate corruption. We had a business person intimately familiar with the motivations of large corporations. Others wanted to participate while remaining in the background; one of these was Robert McNamara. Each of these people was in their own way suffering from the fact that their work was handicapped by the corruption they encountered on a regular basis.
While preparing the launch conference for Transparency International, we developed three key insights, which are still the guiding principles of the organization today:
- First of all, we knew that we could not investigate individual cases, to expose them as Amnesty International was doing. The reason was that, because corruption is so complex and is so technical, we needed to engage people who were directly exposed to or peripherally involved in corrupt practices to work with us and in joint programs. That was probably the most important shift from what I had initially conceived when I left Kenya.
- Second, we realized that we would have to deal with corruption by mobilizing the knowledge, enthusiasm, courage, and credibility of committed people in each of the localities in which we intended to work. We wouldn't be able to operate like the Catholic Church or the World Bank, preaching and dictating from the center. Therefore, we began very early on to initiate the creation of what we call national chapters, which are autonomous nongovernmental organizations incorporated in their countries of operation, bound loosely in a global network, with basic governance criteria for its members.
- Third, we recognized that criminal law is a relatively blunt weapon against corruption. Consequently, we sought to develop a holistic approach, seeking to identify the different elements of the so-called "integrity system," which has to be in place in order to protect society against corruption. This includes a legal dimension, laws, institutions, and guidelines, but it also includes the media, civil society, and the different branches of government. It covers very technical matters, like how to select contractors under international competitive bidding; how much transparency to enforce in a legislative body; to what extent politicians and office holders can be forced to disclose their assets and liabilities; and how to deal with conflicts of interest in a society. The approach became a mosaic of many different elements, which together created a holistic system of integrity.
We initially thought we would focus on development projects, on large transactions. But we also had the idea that our national chapters should define their own agenda and decide their own priorities. As a consequence, we were very quickly caught in a dilemma. Some of the chapters said, "We are not really interested in these big international transactions. We don't care whether our President gets another million dollars in some bank account in Europe. What we care about is whether a policeman, for instance, extorts money from the poor and the powerless in our slums. Or whether a teacher extorts money from the parents of his students, in order to let them come to school or give them a certain grade." And therefore we began to look at the corruption within countries, as well as international corruption.
The challenge of confronting domestic corruption was not only one we faced in developing countries. The German chapter, for instance, insisted from the outset that if we wanted to carry the anti-corruption message into the world from the North, we would have to clean up our side of the street first. At that point we came to a really frightening realization: the establishment in Germany was not really against corruption as long as it took place outside the country. To get around this indifference, we went to the media, and began to expose the mechanisms of corruption. Thus, while political and business leaders continued to view our attempt to eradicate corruption as idealistic and naive, they did everything to avoid a conflict with us.
Paradoxically, many of the governments in the South—particularly a new generation of more enlightened leaders who recognized the self-destructive impacts of corruption—were much more committed to change. For instance, I attended a conference of the global coalition for Africa in The Hague at which the then-president of Ethiopia rose and addressed the ministers of development of the North, including the German minister of development. His message was: "We are trying to do our damnedest to clean up our homes and we are working with Transparency International on this. But please, our brothers in the North, stop your own exporters from bribing our elites and undermining our economic management."
Thus as we developed further and began to build our network of national chapters, we came to realize the importance of distinguishing between different types of corruption, from petty corruption at the local level to grand-scale corruption at the international level. Each of these types of corruption is abhorrent in its own way, but the response to each has to be different.
Petty corruption at the community level takes many forms. Civil service in many countries in Africa, for instance, is terribly bloated, there's no budget for proper pay or for rewarding good performance. Therefore, many governments simply rely on the fact that these civil servants will supplement their incomes by extorting money. When public servants do, predictably, turn to bribery, they naturally target the most vulnerable people, the poorest, because they are the least able to object. As a direct consequence, in some countries whole generations of young people are being lost because their parents cannot afford the bribes that are being demanded by school officials or by teachers.
This sort of petty corruption has to be addressed through awareness building, through campaigns, but also through the development of anticorruption tools and their deployment by civil society. In some countries, for instance, we have helped puppet players to go into the villages and perform pieces for the villagers in order demonstrate to them their rights and obligations. In some Indian villages we have helped implement report card systems that rate the performance of local civil servants, which the people are asked to complete. In Argentina we have supported campaigns where school children stood in front of the entrance of municipal buildings and asked passersby if they had been asked for money, and if so, how much. If then the mayor objects and throws them out, the groups go to the media. We are also working with cartoonists in different places, who are very powerful in shaping the awareness of people. We work to make sure that this corruption awareness enters into the curriculum of schools as well—if possible, at a very early stage. Students need to understand integrity as an important value of their culture, of their society.
At the other end of the scale is grand corruption—large-scale bribery that crosses borders. A vast disproportion exists between the salary that civil servants, bureaucrats, or even politicians earn and the huge amounts of money that are at play in large procurement contracts—often hundreds of millions of dollars. Now there is a state of the art in preventing corruption in such transactions, which, at this point, has been mainly developed by the World Bank. If and when careful ground rules are followed—by putting in place monitoring processes, giving access to civil society, and making the entire process open to media scrutiny—procurement can be very clean and very effective. But unfortunately, many situations, for instance, directly following natural catastrophes or in other contexts in which there is a sense of urgency, negotiations can take place behind closed doors and huge sums of money can end up in the wrong pockets. (We have seen this in connection with the procurement of the supplies and reconstruction of Iraq, for instance, even though the United States normally has a very strict procurement system.) What is needed, as a consequence, is the development of a zero-tolerance philosophy, linked to credible monitoring and severe sanctions for noncompliance.
The Breakthrough
The first real breakthrough for Transparency International came when we finally managed to get a dialogue going with the business leadership in Germany. Over a period of two years we arranged meetings at the Aspen Institute in Berlin and worked to the point where they acknowledged that what they were doing was not simply adapting to conditions outside their control, but rather blatant bribery, blatant perversion of economic decision-making. At the last meeting we held with them they went so far as to say, "Yes we have to try to stop it. But how can we stop when our competitors bribe and get all the contracts?" So it was a dilemma, in which they were caught; a true sort of "prisoner's dilemma," where the company or the exporting country that behaves better than the other is punished for their good behavior. I find this quite interesting because this kind of prisoner's dilemma is not only found in the fight against corruption. It also exists in other areas of failed global governance—for example, human rights violations, child labor, exploitation of women, slavery, violation of labor standards, and destruction of the environment. Very often, it is more expensive, in the short run at least, to produce with a higher standard of social responsibility.
Our exit route from this dilemma was an attempt to help them find a way to avoid corruption without losing contracts. We had a couple of ideas regarding how we could do this. One very simple way I proposed was that we find and identify competitive situations, say for certain major contracts where very few companies had the capability to bid. This is true in civil works contracts financed by the World Bank, where sometimes you have five, or perhaps eight, global companies prequalified to participate. It is also true in the privatization of public utilities, telecommunications companies, and in the area of minerals, extractive industries, and petroleum development. We offered to bring the competitors together and induce an agreement to stop bribing, backed up by a system of monitoring and a system of sanctions.
When the business people met with us again and heard this proposal, they quickly got on board. "If you are able to stop our competitors from bribing, we are going to support you," they said, "because we want to get away from corruption. We understand that corruption is not only destroying the host country, which is afflicted by this cancer, but it's also destroying the companies that are allowing this kind of behavior." The companies signed an open letter to the German government, in which they demanded that the Kohl government—which had been resisting any attempt to outlaw international corruption—participate in the negotiation of a convention that was being prepared with our help, under the auspices of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD).
The OECD Convention signified a quantum leap in the efforts to fight corruption. For the first time, exporting countries signed a binding convention, in which they promised to change their own laws to prohibit their exporters from bribing abroad. The convention entered into force in 1999. It was a tremendous step. Also, at the time, the German government abolished the tax deductibility of foreign bribes—a particularly scandalous feature of its tax system. From that moment on, at least on paper, the system had changed, and the days of transnational corruption as a business practice were suddenly numbered.This article is excerpted from the Spring 2008 edition of Innovations: Technology, Governance, Globalization.

Wildlife law bursary awarded
The wildlife law course arranged every November under the auspices of UKELA's nature conservation working party makes a little profit due to the generosity of the tutors and Browne Jacobson solicitors. The working party decided that the profit be used to fund an annual bursary of £1,000 to support a post graduate research project addressing wildlife law.
We are delighted to announce the recipient for 2016 is Joanna Miller Smallwood. Joanna completed a BSc Hons in Tropical Environmental Science and an LLM in Environmental Law at Aberdeen University. Her BSc dissertation was published. She worked at Friends of the Earth UK head offices in the parliamentary and in the legal department where she was involved in public interest cases including those concerning genetically modified organisms. Inspired by the work at Friends of the Earth she then went on to qualify as a lawyer (PGDL and LPS; The London College of Law). She completed her training contract and then practiced as a solicitor at Leigh, Day & Co. in London, with a particular interest in environmental law multi-party actions. She was involved in a group litigation against BP representing Columbian peasant farmers which was successfully resolved. Following some time out to look after her two children she returned to university in 2014 and completed an MSc in Social Research Methods at Sussex University. She is currently in the second year of an ESRC funded socio-legal PhD at Sussex University. The title of her PhD is: "The Convention on Biological Diversity's objectives include conservation of biological diversity at a global level but has it become another victim of extinction as a result of its text and strategic plan?"
Terms of Reference
The scope of the Working Party is to consider issues for and affecting nature conservation. Input to landscape related issues may also be appropriate.
This Working Party's terms of reference are to:
- monitor and provide comments / observations on proposed legislation and policies;
- monitor the implementation of existing legislation and policies;
- seek to influence relevant legislation and policies as and when opportunities arise;
- work with and support the devolved administrations working parties on issues for and affecting nature conservation / landscape;
- work with and support other working parties as and when necessary; and

You will be gradually weened from this medication so that your not overwhelmed by withdrawal and able to focus on all areas of treatment to ensure your recovery.
Counseling And Therapy
You will go through various counseling and therapy sessions while being treated for alcoholism. It is clear that this addiction is not purely physical and the mental and emotional aspects to your addiction must be treated. During counseling and therapy you will be able to get to the root cause of your addiction and work through it as well as any underlying physiological conditions.

Chargers Defensive Problems: Linebackers
The Chargers need a better job of utilizing their talent. The loss of Shawne Merriman not only affected their ability to rush the passer, but the defense also lost a four-down linebacker. Right now, the Chargers don't have enough four-down linebackers. You can make the case that Shaun Phillips and Stephen Cooper can play all four downs, but beyond those two, who else has that kind of ability?
Matt Wilhelm is a great backup and a good rotational guy, but he isn't a full-time starter. At least, he hasn't proved to be one yet. He came in to the year with the reputation of being a great cover-linebacker, but Wilhelm has been exposed by tight ends all year long. He's more of a finesse player who doesn't really player with power and leverage. Wilhelm is versatile (he can play outside and in), which is good to have in a 3-4 defense. But he doesn't excel in any one area which leads me to believe he is best used in a rotational role.
Antwan Applewhite has tremendous size and power, but he doesn't always use it. He plays to high and seems to be more of a natural defensive end. I have hopes for Applewhite, and was excited by his addition to the practice squad. But he is still developing into an outside linebacker and has some work to do on the fundamentals of the position. He does a good job of being aggressive with opposing blockers, but doesn't seem to have a ton of pass rush tools besides the bull rush. I'm not that down on Applewhite because I know he is stepping up due to injuries at the position. But he'll be a far better player in the coming seasons.
Another guy who does well in rotation but is struggling as a starter is Marques Harris. Harris is a high energy, speed guy who can come in every so often and make a quick impact. But Harris just isn't stout enough to hold up well against powerful tackles. He struggles against the run and is forced to take wide angles on passing downs.
Shaun Phillips and Jyles Tucker need to step up their game. I think both are good players, but they need to be great players. Without Merriman on the field, Phillips/Tucker are getting more attention and while they are pressuring the QB, they aren't getting enough hits on him. They are so close, too often. We need them to seal the deal.
Brandon Siler. Siler is one of the few guys on defense who plays with a consistent intensity. Brandon Siler plays with emotion and intensity, and players around him can feed off of that.
Schematically, Siler is best used on rushing downs. He isn't the most fluid runner and. The Chargers use Siler on special teams where he plays like a demon. Siler is also counted on in goal line situations because he doesn't let plays go through him. But he can be a dominant force in the middle and the Chargers need to get him on the field more. Siler is the type of player that the Chargers defense can funnel plays to. He is a big hitter who craves contact. The defense needs to mix up their rushing linebackers more, and I think Siler would be deadly as a rusher up the middle. He has the power to blow up the center and intimidate the quarterback. If the Chargers want to improve on defense, they need to get a player like Siler more snaps on gameday. (photo credit Tim Casey)
We also need Tim Dobbins to play more. He is a similar player to Siler in that he can lay the wood and is not shy about tackling. Dobbins is faster than Siler and is a little more savvy on defense. Dobbins reminds me of a heat-seeking missile. He is relentless in pursuit and can do a pretty job of blitzing. Again, he might best be used in run support but his ability to cover is under-rated. We've seen him make plays on the ball and while his range might be slightly compared to Matt Wilhelm, Dobbins is quicker to the ball and runs through people as opposed to dragging them down by their shoelaces.
As for Anthony Waters, its tough to get a read on him because he doesn't play enough. Is he an outside linebacker? Is he an inside guy? The fact that he can play both positions is a tremendous boost to the defense but without playing time, he can't get better and we won't know what kind of player he is. We need to see more of him. The Chargers invested a day one pick on Waters and those kind of players need to make an impact for your football team.

Skinfood Salmon Dark Circle Concealer Cream
01 April 2012
Please excuse my swollen and raw eyelids. >_<".
Salmon Dark Circle Concealer Cream
Coverage: ♥♥♥♥♥
As you can see from my before and after pictures, it does wonders! The concealer is salmon colour with an orange and yellow hue. It'll neutralise the blue and purple undertones in the dark circles. It gives a medium to full coverage depending on how much you use. You'll only require a small amount to get good coverage as it is very pigmented. It'll also brighten the skin around the eyes and will make you look more awake. It is buildable to get more coverage. Of course there is a limit as to what buildable is but you'll be able to see. It doesn't settle into fine lines or crease.
This product needs to be set with powder otherwise it won't last since and will slide. It is creamy and contains salmon oil to help the creamy consistency and it has benefits too such as moisturising. When set, it has a good last power, around 6-8 hours. This won't dry your under eye skin which I have always feared. The consistency glids onto your skin easily, making it easy to blend to avoid tugging the delicate skin due to the warmth of the skin. I would recommend using your fingertips to apply this rather than a concealer brush. Some people may not like this product as they may think it is really oily. Stay away if you aren't keen on oily products. If you're wondering, there isn't any fishy scent to this. It's more like a neutral make up smell?
You get 10g in this product which is a lot and will last you a long time. Great for the price too. Packing is cute as with all of their other products. The down side to this is the limited shades as of all the other asian products. This is my to go product if I'm in a hurry or too lazy to wear foundation (which is nearly everyday lol). This is my HG concealer.
