But Arnold Schwarzenegger has been warned he will face 'real bullets' in his campaign to become California's governor.
Opponents desperate to undermine his soaring popularity are preparing a smear campaign, political insiders have warned.
Polls show Schwarzenegger is the early front runner, following his surprise announcement last week that he will enter the race as a Republican.
Almost 80 per cent of Californian voters think he would do a better job as governor than someone with political experience.
But opponents in the Democratic Party are digging for dirt on the 56-year-old.
Spokesman Bob Mulholland said: 'Schwarzenegger is going to find out that, unlike a Hollywood movie set, the bullets coming at him in this campaign are going to be real bullets and he's going to have to respond to them.
'This is not a campaign where Schwarzenegger, when things get a little tough, is going to be able to say "Cut".' Democratic incumbent Gray Davis has already handed out copies of a magazine story which alleged the star groped women, had affairs and abused steroids.
The father-of-four former Mr Universe strenuously denied all the claims.
A photo showing the Austrian-born star's father as a member of the Nazi Party during World War II has also been made public.
More than 200 candidates are vying for the governorship, including pornographer Larry Flynt and pint-sized Diff'rent Strokes actor Gary Coleman.

Riding through Troy, PA
The first time I road through Troy, PA, I was traveling by minivan on Rt. 6 (a nice ride in itself). It was nice to see the town again. It's a pretty town in northern PA. The one thing that amazed me about Troy are the number of old, fancy houses. Given the surrounding areas and no obvious signs of industry, the town appears to have had an affluent past and a seemingly healthy future.
Gas and a stretch
Didn't realize I had gone almost 130 miles already, just cruising along Rt. 15 through upstate PA enjoying the change in scenery as it was, ever so slightly, beginning to take on the look of Fall. Out here in God's Country gas stations are few and far between. Thought I should stop rather than risk getting ...
Kayaking and Glassblowing
... and pulled the kayak up on the bank. Then we followed the sound to the falls, wading through thigh deep water to get there. The falls were a lot bigger than I expected. Some young guys had climbed up onto the falls. It looked awfully dangerous to me but that's what young guys do. The whole trip there and back took 1 hr 45 min, beating the other couple both ways.
After we checking in the kayak we had a Reuben sandwich and awesome sweet potato fries (crinkle cut, ...
Back Home
... on to Big Flats. Apparently they had changed our plane to a smaller plane that could not accommodate everyone who had a reservation. They needed 17 volunteers to take a later flight (next day) and it took quite a while for them to sort that all out. At the same time, we were waiting for a pilot as well.
Eventually, we were on our way and the flight to Big Flats was less ...
... at Zion Adventure Company to pick up some specialized hiking boots and socks for a planned hike into The Narrows on Sunday morning.
So, we're looking forward to the trip! Nothing left to do but get ourselves to the airport tomorrow morning. I hope everyone enjoys the blog over the next couple of weeks. We'll be sharing a lot of photos, videos, and stories throughout.

I can't help but wonder if it was about me. If it was, do I want to know? If I know, will I feel like I need to make up my mind? Be more straight forward? I'm not ready to face that decision. I know it could be seen as callous, that I'm only proving your brother's opinion of me, but I don't know if I can take the responsibility.
There's a certain rule that society seems to hold to. If you know you're breaking a girl's heart and do it anyway, you're not worth much. If you do it by accident it can be seen as forgiveable. Will I be forgiven? It's not that I don't like you. It's more a matter of being responsible for your heart as well as my own. I don't know if I'm ready for that. It's easier to let it shatter and pretend not to care than to juggle it and keep it safe.
If I break your heart, is there anyway to fix it afterwards? If your brother was right and I am the one that page was about will you be okay with my efforts or will you want something perfect, something you can be proud of, a prince charming? Because that's not me. I don't have the skill set to look after someone like you. Someone sweeter than me, more fragile than me. I'm fragile enough myself, I just don't usually admit it.
That kiss, I'm not sure if it was an apology or a reassurance. Sometimes I just want to dig that book up from under the barbeque and read it cover to cover and sometimes I'm too afraid of what it might hold. Is there someone else? I don't want you thinking of other guys. But if you think of me... I'm not responsible enough, don't have the work ethic. You're bound for pain anyway... right?

The war is over, his party is no more, Eva Braun is long dead and German society is now so multicultural he does not recognize it. But, against all the odds, he begins a new career on television after he is mistaken for a brilliant comedian — even though he is indeed the genuine article and his intentions have not changed.

Star-crossed lovers from two disparate planets fight for love against all odds in this romantic sci-fi adventure starring Kirsten Dunst and Jim Sturgess. Adam (Sturgess) lives on a planet where poverty is the norm. Meanwhile, just overhead, Eden (Dunst) dwells in a world defined by wealth and luxury. Adam and Eden have been in love since they were teenagers, yet the rules that govern both of their worlds make their romance strictly forbidden. Beset by interplanetary border-patrol agents during one of their clandestine meetings on the mountains where their two worlds meet, Adam watches in horror as Eden appears to perish before his eyes. Ten years later, Adam learns that Eden survived the fall on that fateful day, and now works in the towering skyscraper that connects their two planets. Determined to declare his love for Eden even in the face of certain death, Adam hatches a daring plan to enter her world and challenge the unjust laws that regulate both of their lives. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

An integrated methodology to assess future water resources under land use and climate change: an application to the Tahadart drainage basin (Morocco)

The assessment of freshwater resources in a drainage basin is not only dependent on its hydrologic parameters but also on the socio-economic system driving development in the watershed area; the socio-economic aspect, that is often neglected in hydrologic studies, is one of the novelties of this study. The aim of this paper is twofold: (1) presenting an integrated working methodology and (2) studying a local case of a North African watershed where scarce field data are available. Using this integrated methodology, the effects of climate and land use change on the water resources and the economic development of the Tahadart drainage basin in Northern Morocco have been evaluated. Water salinization, tourism, urbanization, and water withdrawals are a threat to water resources that will increase with future climate change. The Tahadart Basin (Morocco 1,145 km2) is characterized by rain-fed agriculture and by the presence of two water retention basins. Assessment of the effects of climate and land use change on this drainage basin was based on current and future land cover maps obtained from spatial interactions models, climate data (current and future; scenario A1b for the period 2080–2100), and hydrological models for water budget calculations. Land use suitability maps were designed assuming a A1b Special Report on Emissions Scenarios socio-economic development scenario. The most important conclusions for the period 2080–2100 are the following: (1) Freshwater availability within the watershed will likely be affected by a strong increase in evaporation from open water surface bodies due to increased temperature. This increase in evaporation will limit the amount of freshwater that can be stored in the surface reservoirs. (2) Sea level rise will cause flooding and salinization of the coastal area. (3) The risk for drought in winter is likely to increase. The methodology used in this paper is integrated into a decision support tool that is used to quantify change in land use and water resources.

A Guest in HolehallowMature
Gabriel and Dawn awoke to exited shouting outside their room Dawn groggily looked at his watch.
"Its seven o'clock in the sodding morning" he snarled Gabriel stood and moved to the door shivering slightly as the cold air hit him. Crowds of daemons were milling past the door talking excitedly.
"What's going on?" Dawn muttered sleepily joining Gabriel by the door.
"No idea." Gabriel grumbled.
"Hey?" Dawn moved gripping on of the daemons by the arm. "What's happening?"
"The leader of the Lothorian daemons is here." The daemon said smiling Dawn's eyebrows rose.
"Really?" he said releasing the daemon who scurried away.
"Who?" Gabriel yawned.
"The Lothorian's are a branch of daemons that aren't from the underworld" Dawn said Gabriel frowned.
"How are they daemons then?" he asked wondering at his friends sudden energy as Dawn swiftly got dressed Gabriel followed suit more slowly. Dawn waited almost bouncing from foot to foot as he waited. "Dawn, go. I'll be there soon."
"Are you sure?" Dawn asked he stopped his shuffling and looked seriously at Gabriel who just nodded, Dawn grinned. "Come and find me when your ready you'll love this." Dawn kissed Gabriel's forehead and before Gabriel could even react Dawn was gone.
Gabriel growled to himself as he saw the crowds in the Atrium he headed to the usual table seeing Sylver and the others.
"Hey" he said moving out of the crowds way as a group of daemons pushed past.
"Hi" Sylver yawned the others all looked exhausted. "Have you seen our guest yet?" Gabriel shook his head.
"You should," Morgan said "she's beautiful." Murmurs of agreement travelled around the table.
"I have to find Dawn before he panics about where I am." Gabriel sighed as he realized the large daemon wasn't at the table.
"He's over there." Maxwell said "at the centre of the mad rush." He pointed to a tight crowd and Gabriel growled.
"Well, wish me luck" he muttered
"You'll need it to get through that." Morgan said resting her head on her arms and closing her eyes. Gabriel took a breath and walked away towards the crowd.
The daemons pushed and shoved as Gabriel tried to get through, his annoyance rose with his dislike of the crowd and his magick flared.
"Well," Deacon laughed "no one quite makes an entrance like Gabriel." The daemons pushed, to get away from the electricity that crackled around Gabriel, clearing the path between him and the newcomer.
The new inhabitant of Holehallow looked up as the daemons shrieked and shouted then she smiled as Gabriel came to the table. Behind him the daemons closed ranks again. The woman stood taller than Gabriel.
"This must be Gabriel," she said as he sat down the electricity dying down as Gabriel calmed slightly.
"Gabriel," Dawn smiled "this is Vandanu"
"Danu" the woman smiled her hand out he wrapped his claws around her fingers for a second then let go.
"Hi" he said he could see what the others meant Danu was stunning a tight blue dress complimented the red and purple scales that covered her body her deep brown hair was tucked back behind two small pointed ears. Gabriel noted that the tips of her fingers were clawed and when she smiled she had two sharp eye teeth.
"Sorry, Danu." Dawn smiled "that's how he usually likes to say hello. Gabriel, its rude to stare." The vampyre glared at him.
"Don't be sorry," Danu smiled "I'm more than used to it." Gabriel growled as the daemons around them pushed closer the noise was deafening.
"Can we adjourn somewhere a little more private?" Danu said.
"Sure." Dawn stood and the daemons backed off parting reluctantly to let them through. Gabriel moved towards the table where the others sat but Danu rested a cold hand on his shoulder.
"I wish you to join us, if that's okay." she smiled Gabriel shrugged and changed direction again.

Chapter 15.3
'And how are you qualified to judge that Damia? Tell me that because I would love to know what you think makes someone worthy of calling themselves a princess.'
'Not someone like you who has never had to work hard for a single day in her life, lounging around making everyone else do things for her. You are so out of touch with the people you claim to be loyal to, so how can you expect to be accepted as their ruler.'
'Why is that my fault? I have been brought up inside the walls of this palace, not allowed out unless accompanied by an armed guard. The people are told when I am coming so they can look happy. Of course I'm not going to see the real Fersere.
'And even now I can't claim to know what it's really like in the slums or for people who have nothing to live on, but I now know what it feels like to have nothing and no hope in the world of ever getting out of the hole I seemed to be trapped in. And I have you to thank for that Damia. I thank you for leaving me abandoned in that tower because I've learnt a lot because of that.'
'You think because you now know something of hardship that you are better qualified to rule?'
'Of course not, but I do know that a lot of work needs to be done to help people who feel as helpless as I did.'
'Well aren't you the hero of the people,' Damia said, sarcasm dripping from her voice. 'You understand them, you know how bad their little lives are.'
'Damia please stop,' the Prince said, looking bewildered as his fiancée struggled against him.
'No I won't stop.' Damia spun around in his arms to face him. 'She is threatening to take everything I have and you just want me to lie down and take it. Well I'm sorry but that's not in my nature.'
'Then what were you doing for the years that you served me?' Rowena said, drawing Damia's gaze away from the Prince. 'Was that you standing up to protect what you believed?'
'I was biding my time. I knew that one day I would be able to rise up and claim what is rightfully mine.'
'Just because you believe that I do not deserve to be on the throne doesn't mean it is rightfully yours.'
'My family has given everything for this household. Both my parents died in service and what thanks did they get?' Tears of anger trickled down Damia's cheeks. 'Nothing. My father couldn't even afford to give my mother a decent burial because he couldn't pay the fees.'
'I'm sorry that you feel wronged Damia,' Rowena said sincerely. 'But did your father come to us for help? I know both my father and my mother and they wouldn't have let a thing like that happen.'
'You didn't know your mother, not really. All you know are the good things everyone says about her. But the truth is, they're only being polite. Your mother was cold and unfeeling. She treated people less fortunate than her like dirt, including my mother.'
'You are a liar!' Anger boiled up inside Rowena and she advanced on Damia, who was still being restrained by Felipe.
'No, you just don't want to know the truth.'
'Then you're just a sad little girl who wants to dress up and play princess when she doesn't know what it means.' Rowena was shocked by the cruelty of her words. She had never spoken to anyone like that before. What was going on?
'Felipe let me go,' Damia hissed.
'I'm not going to let go,' Felipe said, trying to be strong but beginning to struggle.
'I said let me go!' Damia threw all her weight forward, knocking Felipe off balance and staggering backwards. He lost his grip on Damia and she flew at Rowena.
Despite watching the thieves when they had been fighting off Erik and his cronies, Rowena hadn't learnt anything and was knocked to the ground by a wild Damia. She grabbed hold of Rowena's hair, tugging at it as if she was trying to pull it out by the roots. Rowena fought back, hitting Damia blindly again and again until she finally landed a punch on her jaw, sending her flying backwards. Rowena's plait was falling out now; strands of hair were hanging down around her face.
Rowena didn't want to fight; she remembered all too vividly what had happened last time, so she ran. She headed for the now open door, but Damia was too quick. She was after her in a matter of moments, grabbing her ankles and pulling her to the ground. Damia's body pinned Rowena to the floor, making her unable to move. She hit Rowena hard across the face, sending the Princess's body reeling from the power of the blow.
'I hate you,' Damia yelled, hitting her again. 'Why did you have to ruin everything?' Rowena thought the blows would never cease; that Damia would beat her to death and that would be it. At least it would mean she would be with Artem in whatever afterlife there might be. She resigned herself to her fate, ceasing to fight back and letting the blows fall. She felt the world slipping away, her chest crushed by Damia's weight on top of it, and she didn't fight it. She floated away into the darkness.
The weight on her chest was removed with a jolt and Rowena gasped, pulling in as much oxygen as she could. She heard lots of people milling around her and the screaming of Damia dying away. A hand slipped under her head and lifted her up from the floor.
'Is she alright?' The Prince's voice drifted into Rowena's mind. She didn't hear the reply but felt herself being lifted from the ground and carried away. Her eyes flickered open for a moment and she saw Felipe's face, looking grim, looking down at her. 'Can you hear me?' Rowena's mouth was so dry she couldn't speak so had to nod. 'Good.'
He carried her along many corridors, Rowena drifting in and out of consciousness until they stopped in front of a door and the Prince opened the door without any difficulty. This is my room, Rowena thought as she was put down on the bed.
'You should rest,' the Prince said. 'Your father has called for a physician and he will be here as soon as he can. Now just close your eyes.' Rowena did as she was told and lost all grip on reality, slipping into the world of dreams.

... and saw Oddball. Based in Warrnambool, story line covers the slow demise of fairy penguins because of foxes and due to the introduction of a breed of dogs - Maremma - who got rid of the foxes but didn't touch the Penguins the population grew again. Having lived at Cobden, not far from Warrnambool I was unaware that this scenario existed. Good kid's movie.
Saturday - 3 October
Stayed around all day and watched the Hawks innilate West Coast Eagles by 46 points.
It's not about the money, money, money ...
... card must have thought "Whoahhhh, Sarah you are aware that if this goes out we now only have $90 to our name, which works out at around 45 quid, are you sure this is what you want?" Well I have answered my current is it worth the money, with what potentially may end up being some sort of book which I may attempt to write. Not for selling as that would be too hard, and I can not write for toffee, but it is a good metaphor in my head anyway.
Fremantle Excursion.
... city so it is very busy with large ships to fishing boats to big marinas with sailboats. It was teeming with people, out for lunch on a nice Sunday afternoon.
We found a seafood restaurant that had an abundance of selection. We had our fill of oysters, prawns and deep fried barramundi. It was quite the people watching event. The area is known for its microbreweries so we did ...

Simplified alpinism
Important ordering update:
The "In Stock" list is now up. Save the wait time.
Please be aware the current wait time is at 8 weeks.
I'm planning on racing the Tour Divide again this year. I'll be gone June 7th-July 5th. The Tour Divide ,for those that don't know, is a mountain bike race from Banff, Alberta to Antelope Wells New Mexico along the continental divide. it's roughly 2600 miles of riding.
If you have a trip planned and need a pack or bikepacking bags please order accordingly. TDR racers can get personal delivery in Banff. I'll be there on the 7th of June.
Alpine Luddites
Simplified Alpinism
Welcome to Alpine Luddites. I build custom technical backpacks and bikepacking bags. These are our own designs, created by decades of ideas gained from exploring the mountains of the world. In our custom packs I work to incorporate your own experience and and listen your needs. In the classic packs I try to honor of the great history of mountaineering , reproducing my favorite old style packs from Chouinard Equipment, Karrimor and others.
I am a direct to you business. In my mind that is the best way to sell specialty, high-end gear that is off the mainstream and often require more knowledge and passion than mass produced merchandise. Having a discussion on how you want your next alpine pack configured or dealing with peculiar fitting issues, bike or body, is a much different experience than buying from a typical retail scenario. Swapping stories, getting know what my customers needs are, maybe even climbing or riding together if they visit me in in Ouray, is the right way to do business.
Simplified Alpinism came from random thought trying to explain the essence of what I do. My packs are totally reliable, functional and designed with the actual user experience in mind. From technical alpinism, to endurance Mountain bike racing my gear is easier to use and will last for years. There are very few who build gear this well.
Our packs features and fit are fully customizable. Our level of detail & quality is above and beyond what you see from mass produced gear. All of my gear is made in Ouray Colorado. the shop & showroom is open limited hours or by appointment.
After looking over the site please contact me with any questions. Buying a custom pack from Alpine Luddites is akin to buying a handmade bicycle. It's all about meeting your needs , getting a perfect fit and sometimes a long wait.....
Thanks for your consideration.

Joy Rides
Trying out a new car is as easy as slipping a slim jim in a lock, hacking a keyless entry, busting a window with a spark plug, using a dent puller to trigger an ignition, cracking a steering column, swerving around town, and dumping some schmucks whip in the Miami River post-joy ride. But grand theft auto is more trouble than its worth when the 41st annual South Florida International Auto Show is in town. This Friday through November 6 at the Miami Beach Convention Center, you can ogle hundreds of shiny vehicles from every major manufacturer, get environmental at the all-new Green Way, and, yes, drive a brand-new car you cant afford without getting arrested. Valid licensed drivers 18 and older will get to test-drive the latest Chrysler, Dodge, Fiat, and Toyota vehicles or sit shotgun with trained instructors on off-road, four-wheel-drive courses at Camp Jeep. There will also be a huge assortment of street rides, classics, tuners, drifters, exotics, and antiques on display.

'There have been some approaches made but we can't give the full details since it could just lead to more speculation,' a spokeswoman for Diageo said. She said the management could not act on these offers as it has yet to finalise how the planned separation of the unit from the group will be carried out.
'We're still evaluating the best way to separate the business. It could be via IPO, MBO or an outright sale. We haven't announced what options we want to go for,' she added.
Bain, Texas Pacific and Blackstone are reportedly interested in acquiring Burger King which could fetch more than $2bn. Bain's portfolio includes the Domino's Pizza chain. Blackstone, meanwhile, is a US private investment firm which owns the Savoy Group of Hotels in London and has a stake in Host Marriott.

Court: CA (Bingham LCJ, Douglas Brown J, Kay J) 5/12/97
Summary: New guidance was provided and conclusions drawn by the Appeal Court in light of the changed sentencing regime which now prevails in relation to children and young persons.
Eight appeals listed together which raised issues concerning custodial sentences imposed by the crown court on offenders aged 14, 15, 16 or 17 on date of conviction.

Sydney, Australia – For the music lover obsessed with sound quality, Philips' Fidelio Primo DS9 docking speaker for iPhone, iPod or iPad stands in a class of its own, with peerless sound quality, an exquisite design in natural wood, fabric and metal and advanced, intuitive control.
The Fidelio Primo DS9 delivers authentic sound reproduction thanks to a host of advanced audio features, including audiophile-quality drivers. The docking speaker is also equipped with PureDigital, an advanced, sound processing technology that offers vastly superior sound performance compared to conventional analogue technology. By collecting the iPhone or iPod's digital audio output and employing digital processing at each stage of the circuit, a much higher Signal-to-Noise ratio is produced, resulting in unsurpassed sound clarity that is perfectly balanced.
Along with a premium design using natural wood, the carefully designed back of the DS9 has a functional purpose, creating a highly effective acoustic structure for sound reproduction. Its clean curve enforces the rigidity of the speaker cabinet, dramatically reducing internal resonance and eliminating the vibration and distortion of sound. The smooth-edged enclosure limits sound diffraction, for speakers that sound as good as they look.
The DS9 also delivers deep, tight bass reproduction, thanks to perfectly aligned and precisely tuned bass pipes, allocated with generous 3L acoustic volume. The result is exceptional realism and an immersive listening experience.
A free 'Fidelio' app, available to download from iTunes, adds to the features on your docking speaker, including playback controls, worldwide Internet radio, a multi-function alarm clock and a unique weather alert system. You can also easily browse and play your music collection, share what you have been listing to with friends via social media and control your speaker's acoustic properties.
The DS9 is compatible with the iPad and any iPod or iPhone, even in its case.
The Philips Fidelio Primo DS9 docking speaker continues a strong tradition in the Fidelio range, with the Philips Fidelio Primo docking speaker DS9000, released in 2010, recently announced as a finalist in the 2011 Australian International Design Awards.
Price and Availability
The Philips Fidelio DS9 docking speaker is available now at leading retailers at a recommended retail price of $399.

Seoul Veterans Hospital, Seoul, South Korea
PURPOSE: Microscpic examination of sputum smear for acid-fast bacilli(AFB) is the most important and rapid diagnostic test for pulmonary tuberculosis. However, the AFB observed on the smear may represent either M. tuberculosis or nontuberculous mycobacteria(NTM). There was a gradual increase in number of NTM isolation in patients who were suspected to have pulmonary tuberculosis in Korea. This study examined the clinical usefulness of PCR test for M. tuberculosis(TB-PCR) for the differentiation of pulmonary tuberculosis and NTM lung disease in patients with AFB smear-postive sputums.
METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed the results of TB-PCR test which have been performed in patients who had AFB smear positive sputum and positive culture for M.tuberculosis or NTM. from January 2005 to December 2006 in Seoul Veterans Hospital. TB-PCR test was done using AMPLICOR M.tuberculosis kit.
RESULTS: NTM were recovered from 28.2%(175/620) of the AFB smear positive sputum specimens and 27.6%(59/214) of the patients with AFB smear positive sputum with M. avium complex(MAC) being the predominant species isolated. 33 patients(55.9%) had MAC and 14 patients(23.7%) had M. abscessus. In the patients with pulmonary tuberculosis, 92.3% of the patients showed TB-PCR positive, and all the patients except one(98.3%) with NTM lung disease showed negative results on the TB-PCR test (p<0.001). In patients with AFB smear positive sputum, a positive result of TB-PCR test was able to predict pulmonary tuberculosis with 92.3% sensitivity, 98.3% specificity, 99.3% positive prective value and 82.6% negative predictive value.
CONCLUSION: The TB-PCR test for sputum specimens could be useful to differentiate between NTM lung disease and pulmonary tuberculosis in the patients with AFB smear positive sputum in Korea.
CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: TB-PCR test is recommended to differentiate tuberculosis and NTM lung disease in patients with AFB smear positive sputum.

Inquiry Question


text:
The Consumer Disputes Redressal Forum, Kozhikode, has declared 'illegal' the practice of newspaper agents collecting service charges from subscribers for door delivery of newspapers without the prior permission or consent of the printer and publisher.
"Agents simply giving receipt for service charge of a particular newspaper without the permission or consent of the printer and publisher of the newspaper will affect all other newspapers also, so it is a fit case to stop the taking of service charge by the agent himself without the prior permission of the printer and publisher of the daily morning newspaper," a two-member bench led by forum president G. Yadunadhan held in a written order pronounced on July 19, 2013.
The order has been published recently on the centralised >website, which covers all the decisions of consumer forums and commissions across the country.
The case deals with a complaint filed two years ago by a subscriber, Valsan Nellikott, a resident of Kozhikode, against the authorised agent and managing editor of the Malayalam daily, Mathrubhumi, for having to pay Rs. 10 as service charges.
In the order authored by Mr. Yadunadhan, the forum held the demand of the service charge illegal. It ordered the newspaper agent to refund the subscriber a sum of Rs. 10 along with a compensation of Rs. 2,000.
It has also directed Mathrubhumi's managing director, P.V. Chandran, to 'monitor' hereinafter any demands or payments of extra charges by agents at 'any point of time.' The forum also ordered the managing director to take "appropriate action against the so-called authorised agent".
The forum held that the agent should approach the newspaper management concerned for 'benefits,' instead of asking the subscriber to pay up "service charge arbitrarily".
"The actual amount shown on the newspaper itself includes commission of the agent. So the act of the opposite party is deficiency of service and unfair trade practice," the consumer forum observed.
Lat year, newspaper agents had gone on a stir seeking hike in service charges. The strike had gone on for over a month.
The order records Mr. Nellikott's argument before it that the agent's act was highly improper and not acceptable. He claimed to have suffered "mental agony and huge monetary loss" owing to the demand of Rs. 10 as service charge.
The agent, V. Baby, sought the forum to dismiss the case. Mr. Baby argued that neither the daily nor the agent has any responsibility to deliver the paper at the subscriber's doorsteps.
"Agents pay the cost of the paper in advance to Mathrubhumi as is done now. The agents appoint personnel to deliver the paper at the doorsteps of persons who request the same to do so and for that these agents are bound to receive service charges. The service charge is highly necessary for door delivery of the paper. The service charges being collected is just Rs.10. There is no exploitation," the agent argued in his version to the forum.
In his plea, Mr. Chandran denied any deficiency in service. He called Mr. Nellikott's complaint "misconceived, ill-advised and ill-motivated". He said special contractual terms cover the relationship between the agent and the newspaper. "Recently some groups of newspaper agents of different newspapers had raised demands including right to collect service charges for effecting door delivery," the order records Mr. Chandran's version.

I am normally a user of protein powders, but was given a package of the Arbonne's chocolate powder to try. I was happy to try it because of the ingredients and the vitamins and minerals that it contained. I loved that it contained a plant based protein and that it could be used as a meal replacement. I thought that the sugar and sodium were a bit high, but certainly in line with other protein powders. I was not. however, fond of the taste of the shake, as, like most chocolate protein powders, it was somewhat chalky. I don't think that I would purchase this product
nee a blender i think to mix this right... not really a good taste... nope not for me
The chocolate protein shake was quite disappointing. It didn't blend well. It had a chalky texture and poor flavour. It is a plant based protein which is fine a meal replacement. However, since the body does not absorb plant based proteins very well it would not be beneifical if intentions were to increase muscle mass. I have no interest in consuming this product again.

Alex Shelley was back in the TNA locker room. It has been a while since he has had a god match. He was upset that he hasn't been on a winning streak like he used to. Alex still had to figure out why. Right now, it was very hard, not having any idea where to even begin.
His hands lead the fingers through his hair, as his good friend Chris Sabin walked in. "Hey man, you okay?" He asked with his calm, sweet voice. Chris moved closer to Alex, concerned for his best friend. He placed his hand on Alex's shoulder.
Alex looked over at Chris with fear in his eyes. "I don't know man. I just feel so lost," Alex spoke as he tried his hardest not to cry. No one has ever seen Alex cry before.
Chris took his other hand and lightly wiped the tears that were slowly falling from his eyes. "Why Alex? You know that you can tell me anything." Chris's blue eyes looked deep into the brown eyes that belonged to Shelley. It was like he was trying to find out what was wrong.
Shrugging his shoulders a bit, Alex could feel the power from his eyes. No matter how hard he fought it, he would feel Chris searching for the problem.
Chris looked at Alex and leaned in and kissed Alex on his lips. It felt soft and gentle. His hand gently touched his cheek, deepening the kiss, as he didn't feel Alex push him away.
When Chris felt Alex stop, he only held him in his arms. "Is this a dream?" Alex asked.
Chris shook his head to answer the question. He too was hoping that this wasn't a dream. The only thing he wanted was for this not to be a dream. He now has admitted to a love that has been hidden for so long now.
Knowing that they were happy and in love meant they were going to get a lot of questions. Both Alex and Chris could handle it. They knew they could.
Alex then woke up in the early morning. He sat up looking around the hotel room. He saw his tag partner Chris Sabin still asleep in his bed, sighing a little. He then got up and walked into the bathroom. He first looked into the mirror, seeing that his hair was still getting in his face. He sighed a little as he pushed his messed up hair out of his face. He then looked into the mirror. His brown eyes then caught himself staring into space. He then saw two blue eyes looking at him. Then he felt his arms wrap around his chest. Shaking a little, he then turned around finding Chris still asleep in his bed snoring. That was a good thing, at least for Alex.
Sighing a little, Alex walked out and into the bar. He walked over to the counter and ordered a beer. Once his Bass Ale was in front of him, he grabbed it and walked over to an empty table, taking a seat. A lot of things were on his mind. He then took a sip of the beer as the burn ran down his throat. The foam from the beer sat on his upper lip. It first felt tingly. His tongue then licked the foam off the upper lip. He then took a napkin and wiped his hands from the beer that was on them. He then wiped his mouth. Not sure if he was drunk, Alex drank more beer. More burning was going down his throat. It didn't bother him much now.
He then looked around the bar. He saw other people dancing. Alex also took note to some of the gays that were in there kissing. He didn't mind that. A small laugh escaped his lips as one was beginning to flirt with him. Alex then began to go with it as he began to feel drunk.
When the bar was going to close, Alex walked drunkenly up to his hotel room. He had to try and keep himself balanced so he wouldn't fall over. Lucky for him, he made it to his hotel room. He didn't have the strength to open the door, so he just collapsed on the floor next to his door. His brown eyes slowly closed as he fell asleep.
Shockingly, Alex was still in the hall in the am. He hasn't moved from where he was, still feeling sleepy.
Chris then awoke in the morning. He sat up as he looked over to Alex's bed, seeing no one there. Immediately, he thought Alex was in the bathroom, so he went to get clean clothes out. After a while of waiting, "Shelley, what are you doing? Your hair looks fine." Chris thought Alex was having hair problems again. Then Chris knocked on the bathroom door. Not hearing anything, he slowly opened the door and peaked in, not seeing Alex. "He must be down at breakfast." He then got out of his clothes and got into the shower, shutting the door behind him so the spray would stay in the shower.
After Chris took a shower, he then dried off and got dressed. He put on a pair of jeans and a navy blue shirt. Then he sat down on the corner of his bed and put on a pair of socks and his pair of Converse shoes. After tying them up, he then grabbed his wallet and room key incase Alex left his behind.
When he opened the door, he saw Alex asleep right in front of their door. Lucky the sleeping Shelley didn't get tripped over. "Lex?" Chris asked, trying to drag his heavy body inside the hotel room. "Wake up Lex, its breakfast time." He then began to shake Alex.
Lex then woke up seeing that Chris had brought him in. He then looked at the bed that he thought he slept in, seeing that he was now on the floor. He looked up at Chris, pushing the hair out of his face. "How'd I end up here?" Alex asked as he slowly tried to get up. The room began spinning around him. He was still trying to stand, but he ended up grabbing Sabin, almost sending both to his bed. "Why do I feel like puking?"
Chris helped Alex to his bed. "You were drinking. I found you lying outside the room," he spoke as he looked at Alex, seeing that he was a stumble butt still. He felt Alex almost grind against him. Of course Chris didn't take it to as being serious. After all, only Alex was drunk.
Alex then sat on the bed trying to figure out what was going on. He still didn't understand what was going on. His hand ran through his hair.
"You ready for breakfast?" Chris asked. He then saw that Alex was staring into space. He then waved his hand in front of his eyes, seeing that he was staring into space. Laughing a little, Chris just poked Alex to see what he would do.
Alex almost tipped over, and then caught himself. Then he looked at Chris, seeing his finger out. He then balled his fist and tried to aim it at Chris, but missed falling off the bed.
"Whoa Lex," Sabin spoke as he caught Lex before he fell and hit his head on the nightstand. He could tell Alex was still a little drunk. "You're drunk. Lex?" Chris asked as he picked Alex up and laid him on the bed. He then tapped his face to see if he would wake up or snap out of it.
Alex then shook his head, snapping out of it, "Huh?" He asked, as he was looking around, trying to figure out what was going on. He seemed to be lost and confused.
"You're drunk. You okay Lex?" Chris asked, hoping Alex was okay. He then sat next to Alex.
"I was drunk?" He asked as he ran his hand through his hair. He then looked at Chris a bit confused. "Who's Lex?"
Chris then laughed as he looked at his watch. "Are you going to be able to eat?"
Alex sat there on the bed, thinking about it. He then felt like his stomach feel like he was going to puke. Alex then leaned over to the trash can as he then puked into it. He almost missed and would have hit the floor.
Chris laughed as he shook his head, "I'll go eat then." He then left the hotel room, heading down to the café area. When he got in the café, Chris spotted two of his co-workers Austin Aries and Brian Kendrick already getting breakfast. Aries had the X-division belt hanging over his shoulder. He wanted everyone to know he was a true champion. Brian was already eating breakfast. He was in his own little world.
"So Chris, where is your lover?" Aries asked jokingly.
Chris just glared at Austin as he grabbed a plate to get himself breakfast. He grabbed a bagel and cream cheese. After he grabbed a knife and the last blue monster, he then sat down and began to eat.
Aries sat down next to Chris and had that smirk on his face. "You know, word is you locked your lover out in the hall way, did you two argue about something? Maybe who's the better game player," Austin spoke with a smirk on his face. He knew when to say certain things.
Sitting there spreading the cream cheese over his bagel, then he looked at Austin. "You can wipe that smirk off your face, Alex is just drunk. You know you don't eat when you are drunk, unless you want it puked back up."
That got Aries to shut up. He looked at Chris, trying to come up with another smart ass comment, but for some reason he couldn't. He then just sat there silent.
"That is what I'm talking about," Chris spoke with a smirk on his face. He then continued to eat breakfast, taking sips of his monster.
Brian just sat there in his meditating state, tuning everything out. Even Austin making faces.

I hope the Israeli ambassador has more luck than I did in prising from the Holy See the real reason why a former Austrian president and lacklustre United Nations chief who covered up his service in Hitler's army should be made Knight of the Order of Pius IX for his 'safeguarding of human rights'.
Such a knighthood, Vatican sources say, has to be approved by the Pope personally and happens 'very rarely'. It was conferred on Mr Waldheim on 6 July, almost two years to the day after he left his post as president of Austria. Why now?
Consider this: Austria, under Mr Waldheim's presidency, was one of the first countries to recognise Croatia after the break- up of Yugoslavia in 1991. That recognition had deep roots in the Roman Catholic Church. Mr Waldheim himself has old Croatian connections; he was awarded an honour during the Second World War by Ante Pavelic, the wartime Ustashe leader. The Pope was the only Western head of state to receive Mr Waldheim officially while he was Austrian president. The Pope, as part of a forthcoming peace mission to the former Yugoslavia, is now planning a trip to Croatia and Bosnia. He is not going to Belgrade.
The Israeli Foreign Ministry spokesman said this week that israel was 'shocked, amazed and astonished' at the Vatican gesture and added: 'It seems those who bestowed this honour preferred to forget his record in the Second World War. His service as Secretary-General of the UN cannot hide this past.'
The Holy See press office yesterday insisted it had 'no information' about the citation and directed any queries to the Papal Nuncio in Vienna. An aide to the nuncio who conferred the knighthood in a private ceremony, Donato Squicciarini, said his office was not prepared to discuss the matter but referred instead to the nuncio's 6 July speech. This cited Mr Waldheim's 'efforts for peace' and 'safeguarding of human rights' during his time as UN secretary-general.
At the United Nations, Mr Waldheim is remembered as one of the least impressive and most unpopular secretaries-general the body has had. One former colleague recalls: 'He seemed mostly preoccupied with getting a job in one of the departments for one of his relatives, who had no qualifications whatsoever.'
The Vatican has never had a policy of imparting information or motivation for its actions. As one close observer put it: 'They might tell you to go and read the cathechism, that is as much of an explanation you'll get.' What is more surprising is that its civil service, the Curia - which has some of the most skilful and well- informed diplomats in the world - should have agreed to bestow the honour in the first place.
Israel and the Vatican established full diplomatic ties only in June. 'It seems so odd, now that the Vatican has said it was going to be so nice to Jews and everything,' said one Jewish rights activist whose entire family was rounded up in Salonika - where Mr Waldheim served - and taken to Auschwitz and Dachau.
This is the man who even a historians' commission appointed by the Austrian government concluded that, as an intelligence officer in the German army in the Balkans, had eased the way for Nazi atrocities. Independent investigations show he also eased the way for British officers to be shot. In 1987 he was banned from entering the United States as a private citizen, and remains so to this day.
Rabbi David Rosen, the Anti-Defamation League official responsible for relations with the Vatican, said that while the Holy See may use Mr Waldheim as an envoy for Ostpolitik, it 'still seems rather odd that the Curia with its exceptional diplomatic skills has laid itself open to these accusations, that will not be swept under the mat'.
Those who have dealt with the Pope directly over the past year say he does seem tired, but never for a moment to the extent where he appeared not to be in control. What harm this will do to the infant of bilateral relations depends on the explanation the Vatican gives to the Israeli envoy, Shmuel Hadas, over the next few days. 'But,' said an Israeli diplomat, 'there is no room for this act - regardless of the factor of whether or not we have full relations.'Reuse content

Manchester City will appeal against the red card given to Samir Nasri just before half-time at Norwich yesterday, after which they still managed to win 4-3 and stay seven points behind Manchester United at the top of the Premier League.
After Nasri reacted to a fierce challenge by Sébastien Bassong by going head to head with the Norwich defender, Mancini felt that either both players or neither should have been dismissed. "Samir said he touched him, but the other player did the same," City's manager said. "I'm disappointed with Samir, he made a mistake and he will pay a fine. But I want the rules to be the same for everyone. I always hate this two rules for different players. I can't accept this."
Unless the appeal is successful, Nasri will miss games against Stoke City on Tuesday and his former club Arsenal, plus the FA Cup tie at home to Watford. Mancini is also facing a possible Football Association charge after joking that Kevin Friend, the referee of his side's Boxing Day defeat at Sunderland, had eaten too much at Christmas. The Italian resisted any similar quips yesterday.
Chris Hughton, the Norwich manager, felt the red card was "harsh". He said: "There was certainly a coming together of heads and some movement from Nasri. But was it harsh? Probably yes."
United's 2-0 win at home to West Bromwich Albion, secured thanks to Gareth McAuley's own goal and Robin van Persie's late strike, meant Sir Alex Ferguson's side maintained their lead at the top.
"At the moment United are better than us because they are top, but it's not important to look at the table now," added Mancini.
Behind the Manchester clubs, Tottenham Hotspur moved up to third with a 2-1 win at Sunderland, but Andre Villas-Boas was unhappy with the decision to book Gareth Bale for diving. "Today was a big mistake," the Spurs manager said.Reuse content

With Verizon and T-Mobile setting the price for their variants at a lower price point, AT&T appears to be almost ready to start selling this thing for $649.99 without a contract. Yeah, you heard that right as it looks like it'll be more the 3G enabled 16GB Apple iPad that they're currently selling for right now at $629. The "HQ Recommended" price seen in the leaked screenshot would naturally make anyone wonder whether or not they want the competition to start encroaching on the iPad's untouched turf.
Regardless, it's coming and is speculated to launch on November 21st – which should be just in time for you to show off during Thanksgiving dinner. As for data pricing, it's looking to go for $14.99 per month for 250MB or $25 per month for a slightly more tolerable 2GB allotment. If this indeed holds out to become true, would you still be interested in picking up AT&T's version?

The Man of My DreamsMature
It all started on one of those nights. The sort of nights when you should be at home, with a cup of hot chocolate and possibly a blanket and book. The kind of nights were you can hear the thunder and lightening outside clearer than you can hear your own thoughts.
But no, I was in work. Without hot chocolate, blanket or a book. No, instead I had work.
At the particular moment when everything kicked off, I was actually in my new office. I itched my arm distractedly, pushing up the ruffled sleeves of my shirt. The yellow light from my desk lamp was giving me a slight headache, I looked up from my desk, taking in all of my new office. All of my certificates hung up on the wall adjacent to my oak desk while the two walls either side of me were lined with bookcases. I sighed at the aggravatingly perfect room and looked back down at my work. Yes, it was midnight and I was still writing the reports on my latest case; Brendan Whelan.
Then, he had been my top priority. The master-mind criminal that had shown no mercy to other officers, but seemed to toy with me; so much it was just getting boring by then.
"Williams!" I heard someone shout.
Said person came into my office, and I had just about swivelled around on my chair to see my co-worker; Dave jog in.
His wavy brown hair was scruffy, as though he had only just woken up and he was curved over, grabbing his sides from running from two floors above most probably.
"Yes Mr Jones?" I asked politely, fluttering my eyelashes in a jokey way.
"Now is-not-gasp-the time for jokes," Dave said quickly. "Whelan, he's-wheeze-down town,"
My back straightened at that name. "Whelan?" I hissed, getting up from my chair quickly.
"Yes, go get him," Dave answered, rolling his shoulders having gained his breath. "Now,"
But I was already out of my office, and jogging down the corridor, cursing myself for wearing a pencil skirt and heels that day.
"Miss Williams!"
I stopped jogging and looked to my left. Madison Greene. My intern. "It's Aurora Madison,"
Madison was a small girl, even smaller than me and I was only 5ft 5". She had a small button nose, deep green eyes and short, spiky red hair she reminded me off something I had seen in a Disney film one time. Her pixie like features had matured over the year I had taught her and although she was only nineteen and had no experience, she was an amazing detective and sometimes picked up on things that I had overlooked.
"Madison, come with me," I said quickly, walking forward.
I heard her scurrying behind me trying to keep up with my fast pace.
"Now listen carefully Madison," I said quietly, beckoning her to walk beside me. "Whelan is in South London. Now, we need to get him, he's been out of prison far too long,"
"What has he done?" she asked, slightly breathless.
"It's not what he has done," I told her, turning left and watching as she stumbled to keep up with me. "It's what he is going to do,"
Madison had a look of confusion on her face as she tried to process this. I stopped walking when we reached an elevator, effectively stopping Madison too.
"I'll explain when we're in privacy," I muttered quietly.
The elevator doors slid apart, revealing an empty elevator that me and Madison stepped into.
"What do you me-"
"No," I said quietly, cutting her off. I shot the camera a glance to show Madison my explanation, smiling in satisfaction when her mouth made a small 'O'.
I pressed a button that would take us underground to the artillery room and smiled at Madison kindly.
The elevator ride passed in silence, Madison seemed jumpy though; every time the door opened to let someone new in, she tensed whereas I remained my usual indifferent self.
The usual noise rang throughout the elevator as the doors slid open, revealing row after row of weapons. Everything from machine guns to katanas. Madison gasped in awe, making me remember that this would be her first mission.
I dismissed the thought, she was an excellent fighter.
"You'll need a gun," I told her, watching as her face lit up. "Only for protection," I warned. "No unnecessary fighting otherwise it will be your last day here I'm afraid,"
Madison nodded in understanding.
"Right, so get a gun of your choice and meet me back here in one minute, we have no time to lose."
I watched as she ran down aisle two, towards the small guns. I headed towards the more advanced ones, picking up my favourite one from the tall grey shelf, the pistole 38 and it's ammunition.
Walking down the aisle again, I breathed slowly. If I could catch Brendan Whelan … it would mean the world.
I heard someone else's footsteps somewhere within the room, reminding me that I had to get Madison quickly.
I made my way back to the elevator door, tucking the gun into my skirt so it was hidden, pleasantly surprised that Madison was already stood there and filling her small gun with bullets.
"Ready?" I asked, my voice coming out a lot smoother than I thought possible.
She nodded dumbly, a small grin taking over her lips.
I pressed the button to elevator and waited in silence as it opened and we both stepped inside, Madison fixing her gun into the waistband of her trousers.
The monotone ring sounded again as we came to the level beneath ground floor. I stepped out, feeling a chill from the draft.
The grey room was too small for the amount of cars in it, but thankfully my own car was near the exit.
"Let's go," I said simply, walking with big strides over to my car.
My car. The only love in my life. The Secret Service had provided me with it; just a perk from the job of risking my life. My Jaguar Advanced Lightweight Coupe black. With blacked out windows and 0-60 in less than two seconds.
"Aurora, will you tell me what he is going to do please?" I heard Madison ask as she walked with me.
I sighed and unlocked my car, opening the drivers seat door. "I'll tell you while we drive,"
Madison nodded and opened the passenger seat door. We both fell down onto our seats, slamming the doors one after the other. I put the keys into the ignition and took off quickly. Skimming the edge of my colleague's cars, I saw the watchman nod at my silent car, opening the door with a lazy flick of his finger against a switch.
The door in front of me and Madison opened fast and within seconds we were outside, driving smoothly along the back streets of a stormy London.
"Brendan Whelan," I started, glancing over at the eager Madison. "Is not like your average criminal. He's sharp. He's not just doing what he is doing for money."
"How does that-" Madison started.
"Basically," I interrupted, taking a sharp turn down a road to hit the blurry city lights. "We don't know his motive, and he could do anything. He's twisted."
"So we need to get him before he does anything wrong?" Madison asked. , I could barely hear her over the hammering of the rain."But we cannot arrest him while he's not doing anything,"
"Exactly," I said, seeing someone aggravatingly familiar on the street. I pulled over, seeing him walk into a multi-story car park.
Me and Madison both got out of the car in unison, slamming the door in the same manner. The rain hit our skin so hard it actually felt painful.
Running across the slippery pavement, and straight into the multi-story car park, I turned towards the wet Madison. "The thing is, if we catch him doing something, then well, we can arrest him, can't we?"
"What if I'm not doing anything wrong?" someone drawled loudly, and I had a pretty good idea who.
I glanced around, not seeing anything but grey wall and old cars.
"Aurora, not so good at this are you?" he taunted.
I turned around, sensing that Madison was turning with me. I could hear her gasp as she laid eyes on Brendan for the first time.
"Madison, how is your boss turning out?" he asked, an eyebrow raised.
