David Cope heads up Search Associates in the UK and Ireland, joining the team in 2002 after a long and successful international career in education and management.
A Cambridge graduate with a BA and MA in History, he taught History, English and Spanish for five years before becoming a headmaster. For twenty years he led three British schools in the UK and France (Dover College, the British School of Paris and Marlborough College), with a special commitment to furthering co-education and international education. During this time he developed staff exchanges and other close working links with schools in Australia, Canada, France, the Gambia, Germany, India, Japan, Jordan, New Zealand, South Africa, Ukraine and the US.
David has also had substantial senior management experience in other fields, including British Council representation in Mexico and running the VSO (Voluntary Service Overseas) programme in Zambia. More recently, he was also responsible for building up the UK branch of Ashoka, a US-based development agency supporting 3000+ social entrepreneurs in seventy countries worldwide.
His career has involved extensive travel throughout Europe, Africa, North, Central and South America, the Middle East, Asia and Australia , with visits to many schools of all kinds.
He has been an active member of the British HMC (Headmasters and Headmistresses Conference), serving on its overseas membership and academic policy committees, and also of ECIS (European Council of International Schools). He was a founder member of COBISEC (British Schools in Europe) and its Treasurer for five years. He has also served on many school boards, both in the UK and overseas, and is thoroughly well versed in all aspects of school governance and management and staff recruitment at every level.
Emma Rayner has a Theology degree from the University of Exeter and, after two years working in London in private equity finance and recruitment, decided to train as a secondary teacher. For over a decade she has worked in independent day and boarding schools both in the UK and abroad, and has an in-depth understanding of both the UK secondary qualifications and the programmes of the International Baccalaureate. Emma joined the UK office of Search Associates in April 2016.

Professional consultations (optional)
For candidates considering a move into international teaching - or a move from one international school to another - who would welcome some general information and advice at a personal meeting, a professional consultation with David Cope at a mutually convenient time and place can normally be arranged. Such consultations usually last about 45 minutes.
The consultation is an opportunity to review and discuss such matters as: the nature of international schools; the range of opportunities available in them; the different ways in which candidates can secure international school posts; issues to be considered before accepting an international school post; personal circumstances and career goals; qualifications and professional experience.
This service is entirely optional. Candidates having a consultation are under no obligation whatsoever to apply subsequently for registration with the UK office of Search Associates. The fee due for a consultation is £55 pounds sterling for one individual candidate, or £ 85 pounds sterling for a couple.
Please contact David Cope for more information on the following services:

A Critical Introduction to Twentieth-Century American Drama
€ 59,49
Lieferbar innert 2 Wochen
April 2003
BeschreibungThis is the first of two volumes in which Christopher Bigsby offers extended critical readings of the work of the leading dramatists and theatre groups in twentieth-century America. In this century drama has emerged as one of the most exciting expressions of American creativity, and during the 1930s became a primary means of addressing the cultural, political and economic changes of the period. But it has received surprisingly little attention. This is a chronological and selective study related to American culture as a whole and providing a picture of a vigorous theatre in the process of discovering its own special strengths. Volume 1 begins with the companies who first broke away from the stifling world of melodrama and naturalism - the Provincetown and Washington Square Players. Christopher Bigsby describes the emergence of important individuals and companies throughout the period to 1940, giving extended critical accounts of some playwrights, particularly Eugene O'Neill, Elmer Rice, Clifford Odets. Thornton Wilder and Lillian Hellman, and distinguishing between the aims and policies of the various companies, including the Theatre Guild and the Group Theatre. The development of left-wing theatre from 1914 is separately discussed, followed by a chapter on the brief flowering of the Federal Theatre which popularised theatre for a mass audience via its successful Living Newspaper productions. A chapter on black drama includes works by and about black Americans during this period. Some of the important figures and productions are illustrated, and there are useful appendices listing performances by major theatre companies.

Off the top of your heads? Do you know of any pullover softshells? I suppose Beyond Fleece would offer something in that area but I'm looking for more of an off the rack solution.
Any help is much thanked!
Golite makes one.
@verberLocale: San Francisco Bay Area
Rab and BuffuloSystems made a number of pile/pertex softshells in "smock" form. Smock = pullover in the UK.
@einsteinxLocale: The Netherlands
Why do you want a softshell? They are overrated and don't work very well in the outdoors, at least not to shed rain. They're ok for very cold whether but not for rain.
Get a fleece/windshirt combination.
Oh BTW if you can't find a pullover, polartec sells most of it's fabrics on their website. You could make your own.
Mark's suggestions are right on if you want a softshell close to the original concept, such as Rab's Vapor Rise line. However, it is hard to answer your question given how broad the category of "softshell" has become. The term now covers fully waterproof pieces as well as just plain windshells- so outlining specific qualities that you want in a shell is a good starting point.
Regardless, if you think Epic is a softshell, Wild Things has a half-zip shell in their Performance line. OR has a pullover Contour Windshirt made from, what I consider, a softshell fabric.

The Scouting Report As the Professional Arena Soccer League's defending Central Division champions, the Sidekicks enter a new season in pursuit of their first title since 2001. On November 17, just two weeks after the season opens, and just 11 days before players bicycle kick dishes around Thanksgiving tables, the team begins competing in the sixth installment of the Open Cup—an open knockout-style tournament that brings together indoor soccer teams from several leagues.
Then, in late December, the Sidekicks infuse the holiday season with an extra dash of excitement during a showdown with one of the league's expansion teams, the Tulsa Revolution. Both match-ups feature $2 hotdogs, beers, and sodas, and both give fans a chance to witness the skills of newcomer Nestor Hernandez. A year ago, as a rookie with Chicago, the forward earned a spot on the All-PASL team by scoring the second-most goals in the league with 38.
Dallas Sidekicks
A new iteration of the decorated soccer squad of the same name that disbanded in 2004, the Dallas Sidekicks hope to rekindle a championship soccer tradition in the Professional Arena Soccer League. Living up to their proud lineage will be no small task; the Sidekicks were one of indoor soccer's dominant teams in the '80s and '90s, winning four championships and five division titles between 1986 and 2004, with the aid of famed Brazilian players Tatu and Sagu. The Sidekicks rumble across the turf at Allen Arena with the help of a loyal fanbase and the Purple Chaos, who show their allegiance by wearing purple bodysuits to every game and adhering to a strict grape-juice-only diet.

I am in the process of writing a One Tree Hill story which will have the majority of characters in it from Season 5!
The story is about Lucas Scott (writer) and Lindsey Strauss (editor) who are currently dating.
Lucas went to LA to propose to Peyton, Peyton said "someday", Lucas says she said "no" and returned to Tree Hill extremely hurt and never really forgave Peyton for the hurt.
No reference in the story to Lucas going to see Brooke but he has been dating Lindsey for a while and Lindsey is not exactly confident of Lucas's feelings for her.
Lucas says he loves her and only her and that Peyton is and will only ever be a friend to him!
Nathan and Haley are in the story and they have Jamie, it is Jamie's birthday party and the usual crowd are there including Granny Deb with the creepy clown!
Brooke returned from NY to Tree Hill because she wanted to have a baby and raise her child in Tree Hill, she also has Clothes over Bro's and Victoria is around!
Peyton wanted to return to Tree Hill to settle down back there as she hated LA and was lonely. She still loves Lucas and would like to get him back although he is not her main reason for returning. She has sworn Brooke to secrecy for her reason for returning – she has an important appointment to attend the day of Jamie's party and when she goes she gets bad news.
Brooke gets impatient waiting for Peyton at Naley's house so constantly phones Peyton but gets no answer
Brooke is worried about her friend and before she knows it the police have arrived and there has been a terrible accident – is it Peyton – who is hurt and why is Peyton not at the party?
What was Peyton's appointment and why is she devastated at the outcome of it and will Brooke spill the beans as to why Peyton really returned, will Lucas and Peyton get back together, will there be a happy ever after in that quarter or will he stay with Lindsey and accept a peaceful and happy and easy life!
All rights belong to the CW and I own NOTHING, absolutely NOTHING on ONE TREE HILL!

My Poker Journey
I've been doing quite a bit of self reflection lately and while there are pieces of my poker story all over these forums, I thought it would be good to put everything together into one post which may be quite long but the reason for which would be detailed in the end. I hope you enjoy.
I discovered poker late 2002 or early 2003 through a broadcast of the 2002 WSOP ME final table. I had no idea what the game was about but the money was what attracted me to the game. I can remember not understanding what was going on but being consumed by the money. This was a result of how the commentary use to be in the old broadcasts. The commentators would refer to the chips as dollars and to me, a 10 year old at the time, made it seem like some players lost millions of dollars in the game, even coming to the realisation that it wasn't that way in the ME, I was still hooked and started trying to learn the game.
I found a poker book which essentially just went through the basics of NLHE and I must have read that book 50 times just in 2003 alone. At this time I hadnt even discovered online poker but I was just trying to consume as much content as I could. In comes the 2003 WSOP coverage on ESPN and I think this was the first time there were multiple episode coverage which made the game way more enthralling. It allowed for a story line and character development as well as advertising which was how I discovered online poker. By the end of 2003 I started playing on Party which at the time was probably the biggest site. I remember playing freerolls and playing play money games and just trying to learn but I was absolutely terrible at the time, essentially just clicking buttons and trying to figure things out as I went along. I probably did this for a year but being bombarded by the sights of real money games I wanted to start playing for money. Around this time Party started to offer a new account bonus where just by registering and not even depositing they would give you 50$ to play with but you just needed to play like 100 raked hands to be able to withdraw. I remember discovering this and spinning up 50$ stacks, go bust and then create a new account. Back in those days security was so terrible never got banned for this but back then it wasnt even the money as much as it was the competition that I craved. On many times I'd spin to like 500$ and sit at a 5/10 table and go bust but I had no concept of money etc so it didnt mean anything to lose it. It was just so fun.
Fast forward a couple years and I was starting to figure stuff out about poker and I was getting a lot better. At this point through spin ups etc I probably had $1,000 roll around 2005 and was able to make deals with people to get money off of party and on to other sites like Absolute Poker, Ultimate bet and Pokerstars. Getting off of party was my way of being legit since I knew i couldnt ever withdraw from that site. It would fluctuate up and down but didnt go anywhere for quite some time but then around 2006/2007 i discovered cardschat and started to take the game seriously. I remember joining and looking at some of the posters and thinking the guys like ChuckTs and Aliengenius, Irexes, Tenbob and all those guys as miles above me but I always wanted to grow and get better at the game. I started reading a lot more and spending a lot of time just consuming HH threads. Even to this day, I dont even post advice but I would just read as I've always tried to be really light on content when using the forums but I was always lurking and just picking everything up.
Around 2008 was when poker started really kicking off for me. I had a massive run on Ultimatebet which saw my role go from about $1k to about $10k over the summer. I was playing under my mom's name on all of these sites cause I was still 16 at the time. Was a funny moment when I requested a cheque from UB and it came to my mom as it was in her name and while she knew i was playing poker and had some money I was gambling with she didnt quite fathom the amounts and was a bit taken aback by the $3k on the cheque.
After the spin up in the summer of 2008 to $10k i just thought it was always going to continue and I would continue to print money but alas, as most people learn the hard way, you never really are as good in poker as you think you are. I think over christmas 2008 after the 3k withdrawal I was back down to $1,000 or $2,000 again. Was a bit disheartening but it was a result of me playing too high, again not having a concept of money and being so young I'd be jumping into 5-10 games and $200-500 SNGs and tournaments which obviously went pretty badly but I always made sure to always leave myself a little bit back so I would never be broke.
At this point i started to pick up PLO and trying to learn the new game I started playing lower and just building my knowledge of the new game. I dont recall much between 2008 and 2010 until I turned legal and could finally create accounts in my name. When I turned 18 I emailed PS about changing the account to my name etc and their support being quite upset but they did it anyway. Created a new account on FTP and made Ipoker my new destination. At this time I had about 5k in the poker fund and I started to crush the games on Titan and in the summer of 2010 i span the 5k into $30k beating the 1/2 to 3/6 games and having some decent tourney cashes as well. I was just enjoying the hell out of poker but at the same time I got a job to please the family and also to keep me occupied during the day.
The job made it difficult to play as I would be tired in the evenings so I just more or less maintained my position in the PLO pecking order winning a few thousand here and there and just being content with grinding out poker part time. For context I had like $150USD equivalent in my bank account and $50,000 in poker sites by the end of 2010. I didnt change my life because of poker and I never viewed poker money as anything but just that which allowed me to just grow the roll. I think this was a big difference for me and other regs who ended up getting stuck at levels. Because I would never withdraw nor have a need for money (third world living is cheap) I could always reinvest into the game. So a person needing 5k a month to live and me needing 0 meant that all things being equal i was 5k closer to playing a new higher level.
The first big down period in poker for me was the start of 2011 where I dropped probably 25-30k within the first 4 months of the year and then Black Friday hit and the online community was just ravaged. While I continued to grind sporadically this really put me out of playing poker and I pretty much took everything off poker sites and hardly played in 2012. It was just not a really good time to be in poker and I didnt know if i would be coming back.
That all changed at the start of 2013 when I moved to the UK to study. I was only going to be here for 6 months but wanted to max my time out. I didnt know anybody really but I did know how to play poker, had $30k USD to my name and decided to give live poker a go for the first time. This sparked the revival into poker, I went on an instant upswing playing the 2/5 and 5/10 games at the Vic. I remember winning 30,000£ in February of that year and really thinking that I would just end up playing pro. I started playing online again when FTP reopened and playing on Ipoker as well, always finding a new skin to play under a new username as the community there was so small you pretty much had to do it reguarly. But it was on FTP where I made huge leaps winning huge chunks in the shallow games. I couldnt even believe it was real at the time I would log on every day, win a few thousand playing anywhere from 1/2 to 10/20 and this went on for about 6 months where id just pretty much never lose. Was an actual dream. I recorded some of the sessions, should probably find them and put them on here for a laugh.
I moved back to Trinidad in July 2013 and would be very sporadic in terms of my play and my commitment for the next year and a half. There was no zest for the game. I missed having these big live games and while i was still doing ok online I just didnt feel like online was the game i wanted to be playing. In march 2015 I got a huge break and got hired for a job in the UK which allowed me to move back to London. I didnt actually play for the first 3 months but when i got back into the swing of things at the Vic I was just enjoying it thoroughly. I made about £120k playing poker in 2015 but it was also the year i picked up sport betting a little bit more and found a niche in basketball. I also extended my stakes in 2015 to the point I had 6 or 7 guys playing for me either online or live cash games. Was a dream season.
I was still playing poker maybe 2-3 times a week at this point, but i got invited to a private 100/200 game around February which I proceeded to get barred from after 1 extraordinary session where i won a chunky 6 figure amount. I was trying to leave some money on the table and got it in bad in one of the last hands of the night for 69k and i was happy when i got it in terrible shape as there is a rule with private games to win some money but never to clean out, you want to be invited back ofcourse, but with that in mind, i ended up winning the 15% twice and scooped the 70k pot. Never got invited back but it was good money regardless, i cant complain.
It was around this point in time that I stopped playing as much, I think its pretty evident in my thread that the volume of posts went down after March. I just felt I accomplished everything i set out to, I won a ton of money, I've played the biggest games i could and I enjoyed it through and through. I started to play a lot worse as time went on this year but i was fine with it, losing 5k here and there in a 5/10 game didnt bother me anymore. It was also this year i posted a 6 figure profit during basketball season and had some really good payouts during EUROs. Everything was going well for me and I was just enjoying gambling.
However the funny thing about life is that your perspective is always changing. In March I started staking a guy who at the time I only vaguely knew but was friendly with. He hit a hard time in his life and while I was in 2 minds about giving him money, and everyone i knew told me not to, I went ahead and gave him 4k to play some 1/2 games and get his life back. Had some huge ups at the start and we were up 80k playing 10/25 but he hit some downswings and that got eroded down to zero. The money never bothered me cause i was still only in for a 4k investment but in this particular horse I saw a guy who was playing pro poker for a long time and i saw someone who really didnt have much going for him and it made me look at myself and try to think of what i wanted out of poker. I couldnt see myself doing this for a long time and i certainly didnt want to become the washed up guy who had huge highs and just let everything slip.
About 2 months ago, after this bit of self reflection, I realised that I was at a peak and financially I pretty much dont have to worry about money and am in such a comfortable state that maybe it was the right time to get away from the game and focus my efforts on doing other things. Its been a hell of a journey and I'm sure im going to continue to play but on more of a recreational basis. In this decision, I've somehow found peace and contentment. Without poker, I also realised how much time i put into the game and now its a great time to start living. I've realised over this time, so many people have come and gone from the game whether its been due to going broke or falling out of love with the game but Im just glad that I am leaving on my terms.
So thats my poker story and I know its a pretty long passage and I wasnt sure about writing this but speaking to a friend last night motivated me to put it up, if only for closure for myself and signing off a chapter in my life while also trying to provide something to motive some of you younger guys now picking up the game.
Hopefully I stay active on the forums and I may be playing some of the WCOOPs this year but for now I guess this is me saying I'm now a retired poker player, feels like a lifetime in the game but Im still only 24
Congratulations man, I'm almost twice your age, still haven't worked out poker and dream to be able to achieve what you have, instead I'll be working for at least another 20 years.
Hats off to you well played, hope you do stick around here but more importantly enjoy the rest of your life.
Was familiar with a large portion of this but really enjoyed the read. Poker kicking my arse atm, so it was fun to read about all the successes.
Sounds like the right decision for you, though I'll still expect you to give me PLO advice out of the blue as needed. Carry on, and don't you dare stop sending me pics of your buds pretending it's actually you.
Also if anyone is following this thread I just want to say a couple of things about Marg (I do hope this doesn't sound like an obituary)
The first is that he is responsible for what remains by far the most baller thing I've seen in my life. When a few of us had a meet-up in Sheffield in 2013 (which remains one of the best evenings/nights/mornings of my life), on the way up from London Marg had cashed money out of (I'm guessing) Vic's and his wallet was literally ****ing bulging with £50 notes. Sick. As. ****.
The other thing is that I genuinely don't think there are many - if any - people on this forum who have combined such a high skill level with such a genuine willingness to give his time to help other people (the only comparables I can think of are Zach, Belgo, Chuck and (I'm stretching way back here) ChrisTC). Zach aside, those were all from a very different time, the game was different, the whole scene was different.
I don't frequent this forum as much as I used to but even I've lost count amount of times I've seen threads where Marg has not only offered advice on a hand but has offered actual assistance. I know he - like myself - hasn't always had the smoothest of rides with the site, but it was always with the interests of the site and its members in mind.
The highest compliment I can pay him is that I wish he'd 'revealed himself' when I was still utterly obsessed with poker, because I would have tapped the **** out of that brain of his.
Cool guy, sick at poker
So the wallet full of £50s story. I never had 20£s or tenners or fivers and I use to go around paying for everything in cash with 50s. I didnt have any cash on me when i was coming up sheffield so I stopped by the Vic to pick up a bag (think it was 2,500 but could have been 5k), cant really remember honestly. until I came to sheffield I didnt know this was actually not a thing. I dont do this anymore. In retrospect, i must have looked pretty odd on so many occasions using a 50 to pay for like 4£ of goods.
The sheffield night was insane wish we still had the video but if I am correct, I know that gif is the legacy of that night. Don't even need to click on it to know its Hodge twins.
PS, Skype groups are dead, I think everyone from our time (we have a time now) has moved on. Everyone's kinda built a life outside of poker, quite interesting to see the growth really.
This is such a great read.
You're one of few members on here I really admire. I doubt I'll ever achieve it, but I aspire to be like you as far as being just a really good, knowledgeable player/member that others can look up to learn from...but just for the micro stakes.
...There has to be a cool nickname for the micro stakes. If the high stakes are called the "nosebleeds", I guess the micro stakes should be called the "toe stub" stakes. Yay? Nay?
Again, great read. Thanks for sharing and thanks for being a great, humble, and inspiring member.
I hope I can one day share my poker journey on here.

Roundup: EPA concerned about chemical risks
Thank you for demonstrating in the article "Pregnant women rife with chemicals" that the significant presence of chemicals in our environment is not just a concern for adults, but also could pose major risks to children and unborn babies (News, Jan. 14).
READ ARTICLE: Pregnant women rife with chemicals
MORE LETTERS: Address early education before 'fragile families'
As a mother, this issue is of special importance to me. And as administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, it is part of my job each day. The health of the American people is EPA's first priority, and under my watch, reducing people's exposure to toxins is a priority.
Unfortunately, EPA's efforts are constrained by the limits of current law. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention data spotlighted in the article underscore the need for Congress to modernize the 1976 Toxic Substances Control Act. This 35-year-old law is insufficient for managing exposure to chemicals in the products and environment of the 21st century. Our health, the health of our children and future children, depends on improving the ways we address these potential risks.

We often select comments that respond directly to USA TODAY articles or opinion pieces. Letters that are concise and make one or two good points have the best chance of being selected, as do letters that reflect the vibrant debate around the nation on a particular subject.

Pets in bed
While good pet hygiene and medical care are common-sense requirements to responsible pet ownership, we should not relegate them to the garage, yard, cage, floor or closet because of some report that warns about the hazards of pets sleeping in beds with people ("Sleeping next to pets could be harmful, study says," News, Jan. 24).
The whole purpose of pets is bonding and unconditional love — both ways. When our Lucy the Maltese scurries under the sheets, hogs the pillows and purposely annoys us at night with jumping on my belly and kissing me, we charge it off as a small price to pay for her joy, unending love, cuddling and warmth on a cold winter's night. And she's been keeping us healthy for 11 years.

Sympathy for stutterers
I was dismayed to see Jeff Stahler's editorial cartoon titled "The King's Speech" depicting a top-hatted "King" Obama stuttering the words, "R-R-R-reduce sp-sp-spending," into a microphone (Wednesday).
How little we have learned! Stuttering (also referred to as stammering) is a communication disorder. Stuttering is a disability that historically incites cruelty rather than compassion, ridicule rather than respect. It remains one of the few disabilities for which license is granted to non-sufferers to disparage and burlesque the afflicted. Consequently, stutterers are often conflicted and alienated. They often are forced to deal with social isolation, the contempt of others, identity issues, and feelings of frustration, anxiety, shame and guilt.
One of the many good things to come out of the excellent film The King's Speech is to have put a human face on stuttering. The story of King George VI's courage and determination should have been an inspiration to the cartoonist, not seen as an opportunity to take a cheap shot at the president at the expense of an already thoroughly mocked group.

Alert Protective Services Overview
Alert Protective Services are based in Chicago and have been serving the Chicagoland area since 1982. With over 3 decades of experience the locally owned and operated company focuses on service and providing customers with the latest technology. The company sells security equipment and will help to custom design a system that will meet both the customers' needs and budget. They also have the ability to reroute most existing systems to their monitoring service. This often saves customer's money once they are out of any current contracts.
They offer the latest technology, which includes remote monitoring options. This allows customers to enable or disable the system remotely. Customers are also able to receive texts and email alert notifications regarding system activity. The systems are affordable and can cost as little as $1 a day. They are reliable and provide local services for installations, servicing and system monitoring. These features give customers peace of mind. They know that if their alarm is triggered, help will be on the way in a matter of seconds.
Alert Protective Services Reviews
Alert Protective Services maintains an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau. In the last 3 years they have only had one complaint and that was resolved to the customer's satisfaction. The company responds to complaints and bad reviews and makes a genuine effort to keep customers happy.
Customers like that the equipment pricing is very competitive and that the monitoring fees are lower than most companies in the area. Technicians and sales staff are very knowledgeable and work to meet customer needs rather than upsell to unnecessary products or services. The technicians take the time to install the system correctly and then spend time with the property owner to ensure they know how to operate the system.
Generally technicians are on time and very professional. There are also no long term contracts and the terms of the contract provide generous cancellation policies, if a customer needs to cancel before the contract is complete. The company can work with existing systems, new installations or upgrading existing systems. This provides a great deal of flexibility for customers.
The biggest complaint is in communication. If for some reason a technician does not show up or an appointment is not kept, the company is slow to respond and return calls. While they do eventually take care of the issue, miscommunication can cause a reduction in customer satisfaction. Fortunately mistakes on the company's part are not frequent.
Alert Protective Services Equipment
Alert Protective Services offers systems for both home and business customers. They offer installation for both existing properties and new construction. The company is also able to upgrade existing systems with the new features and technology the customer chooses. This enables customers to obtain the security system they want at the lowest possible price.
Upfront the system may cost more than competitors because many competitors finance the equipment and this results in long term contracts that cannot be cancelled. In order to have short contracts with generous cancellation terms, the equipment must be purchased upfront. This also means that the customer owns the equipment and saves on the monthly monitoring costs over the long term. When equipment is added to the monitoring service then the monthly costs can be significantly higher.
Alert Protective Services offers the latest equipment. This includes home security monitoring along with fire and safety protection. Medical alert systems are available for customers who wish to monitor an elderly parent. In addition to the basic services video surveillance, climate control, lighting control, and remote control monitoring are also available. Email and text alerts are an option with the remote control monitoring.
Alert Protective Services Home Security Packages
Alert Protective Services custom designs security packages for each homeowner or business. This ensures that they receive exactly what they need and nothing more. The company is known for its no nonsense pricing and approach to sales. They provide customers with options and they let them choose which features they want. This eliminates the high pressure sales pitches and results in customers gaining a system that meets their needs without additional features they will not use. Customers can add features or upgrade their system at any time.
With all systems the 24/7 local monitoring station comes with a monthly monitoring fee. This fee starts are $1 per day but can be more depending on the features selected. Things like video surveillance can add to the monthly cost. The monitoring station is UL approved and maintains a backup system with triple redundancy. This provides protection for customers even if there is a regional outage.
Alert Protective Services seeks to provide customers with what they need and then provide the best service in the industry. This strategy has made them a leader in the Chicagoland market.

back to the subject... i've seen young children do the same thing. it's called masturbation, and it has nothing to do with homosexuality.

so, what would be the point of them getting married at all?
Since: Mar 09

#28 Oct 9, 2012
I think the best descriptor for the behavior of the dog you mention is "pansexual".
Note again that I said that samesex pairbonds have been observed among species that pairbond for life.
The problem with the term "homosexual" is that it delineates a behavior, not an orientation. Conflating the two can make (and has made) for some very spicey arguments, but they are a waste of time based upon imprecise nomenclature.
The point of observing animal behavior, is that it instructs us about all those factors which are not produced by cortical and pre-frontal structures in our brains ... far greater than our ego- and homo-centrism seems to care to admit.
It occurs in nature, therefore it is natural.

So if that rule applied to you, you'd be fine with it?
#30 Oct 10, 2012
spare me your faux outrage...
I made a silly point...that animals do something is no logic...
oh, you got me, also, when i lay my laptop on the grund, the dog hits keys...so we are just like dogs, right?
its all silly, including your fake outrage and false claim i think i am better than anyone...
it was just a silly comment...
build a bridge and get over it...

Natural means that it is present in nature.
There are gay animals, over 1500 species have been observed as having some homosexual animals.
Therefore, homosexuality is natural, for it appears in nature.
What is so hard to understand?

The dog situation is hardly a good example. The references people are talking about occur outside of domestication, are usually associated with animals that are exclusively homosexual, and are sometimes manganous to one individual, as has been seen in dolphins.
#37 Oct 10, 2012
In other words, Lacez is a waste of time...
you talk with her...
Yah, look at how many times I posted...running and hiding?
reality aside as usual eh john?
the real question is, why did you have to jump on this particular post, because you are more interested in attacking me than making any point?
your lack of citations or any support already told me that, but this kinda clinches it doesn't it?

I would say his judgement is accurate. Lacez's argument is presented with facts and logic. You make silly connections between things that have nothing to do with one another and are altogether inaccurate.
#39 Oct 10, 2012
what "facts"?
what "logic"?
Most of what i post is cut and pastes from Scotus decisions...
I guess they are just silly?

In other words, "I have neither facts nor logic on my side, but I CAN Google SCOTUS cases and copy and paste the bits I think support my side so that proves I'm right, despite having no argument."
Again, hon, learn to read and understand a legal decision and THEN try to use them to support your argument. As of now, you're just copying and pasting and hoping no one knows the law better than you do.
Guess what? We do.

How about the logic that the word Natural means "found in nature" and the fact that homosexuality has been documented in species as far back as the 1800s? It's a proven, scientific fact. Your response was basically, "I'm not speaking with you." You said that he couldn't pretend that he was speaking to you, when in actuality, he WAS speaking to you and there is nothing you can do about it. The only thing you can do is pretend. Which you did. Also, when you were making a point, it was hardly on topic. Tell me, what does being the species that is smart enough to make and use computers have to do with inherent homosexuality in animals?
#42 Oct 10, 2012
Okay, how about you take a turn and support yourself, why won;t you?
I am making supported argum,ents, and you are denying they exist, FYI, that snot debating its merely you being delusional...
please tell me what Baker means...
is that too much to ask? apparently yes, and I know why...
so your posts will now focus on me, and not what I am saying, I know why you will do that too.
#43 Oct 10, 2012
how about the fact that we all already agreed that animals do it is a silly tangent?
Lacez doesnt respond to what is written to her, she just goes off...
she OFTEN attributed things to me I never said and repeats her same tripe over and over and fights with me all the while I try to explain I NEVER SAID what she claims...
