Ganga: You know, they really shouldn't keep these things lying around like this.
"They really shouldn't keep these things lying around like this." John, a stickler for orderliness, said to himself, looking at the pile of papers as he went about cleaning the empty cubicles and dusting the tables and monitors.
It was past 6 PM on a warmer than usual November evening in Houston. One of the victims of the economic downturn of 2001, John had lost his job and much of his savings in the free-falling stock market, and had been relegated to taking up a temporary job with a cleaning services company to make ends meet.
The cleaning crew was in, and most employees had left for the day. There were still a few of them hunched in their cubicles, some working late, and some just killing time, browsing, chatting or emailing.
"Get a life, guys!" he wanted to say.
No one had bothered to give him a second look as he meticulously went around vacuuming the floor. He had been passing by people in suits talking in hushed tones in the hallways and outside meeting rooms. He had recently overheard conversations about selling all the company shares and shredding the documents before the auditors got in. No one thought he knew enough to understand what they were talking about.
The recycle bin was stacked, and the shredder was overflowing as well. Some papers were left carelessly in one of the cubicles. He looked around carefully and glanced at them - balance sheets and documents. He could sense that something fishy had been going on.
They ought to have been more careful. They really shouldn't have kept these things lying around like this, but he didn't mind as he stashed the loosely scattered papers, memos and balance sheets safely.
"Enron would soon have some answering to do" thought the former investor who had recently lost a fortune, contemplating the next course of action with his newly acquired evidence of the company's wrong-doings.

NOTE: This page applies to Intel® XDK builds before build 3088. For Intel XDK version 3088 or higher, so please see Creating an Apple iOS* Distribution Certificate and P12 File with Intel® XDK - Walkthrough instead of this page. Version 3088 provided major changes to the Build tab and certificate management (see the Release Notes).
This page walks you through the process of obtaining an Apple iOS* App Store* and Ad Hoc (distribution) certificate, which enables you to create a distribution provisioning profiles. As you use your Apple Developer account to generate your Apple App Store* and Ad Hoc certificate, you will also generate a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) as explained below.
Login to Your Apple Developer Account
1 - After you sign into your Apple Developer account using a web browser, click Member Center and click Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles.
Select Certificates
2 - Locate the Certificates folder in the left panel and click Certificates.
Select App Store and Ad Hoc in the Production Category
If you already have an App Store and Ad Hoc certificate (.cer) file in your Apple Developer account, you can use your Apple OS X system (or some other method) to create a P12 file using that existing certificate file. In that case, go directly to step 10 (below) and upload that P12 file using step (1b) in the Intel XDK Cordova iOS Build panel on the Build tab.
3 - Click the + to create a new certificate.
4 - Under Production (aka Distribution), select (check) App Store and Ad Hoc.
5 - Click the Continue button.
Create the CSR File
6 - Click the Continue button.
You have two options for creating the CSR file:
- Using your Apple OS X* system, follow the About Creating a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) insructions provided in the Add iOS Certificate panel of your Apple Developer account.
- Download a CSR file using step (1a) in the Intel XDK Cordova iOS Build panel on the Build tab (especially useful if you do not have an OS X system).
To create a CSR file using the Intel XDK Build tab:
- On the Intel XDK Build tab, click the iOS build tile.
- Click the Edit button next to iOS Certificate.
- In step (1a), click the download button and save the CSR file to your local system.
Generate a Certificate using your CSR File
7 - Click the Choose File button and locate your saved CSR file (from the previous step).
8 - Click the Generate button to create the certificate.
Download the Generated Certificate
9 - After it has been generated, click Download and save your App Store and Ad Hoc certificate (.cer file) to your local file system.
Upload the App Store and Ad Hoc Certificate (.cer file)
10 - You must provide the build system with an App Store and Ad Hoc certificate in order to build an iOS app for distribution in the Apple App Store. You upload that certificate using step (1b) in the Intel XDK Cordova iOS Build panel on the Build tab.
If you used your Apple OS X system (or some other method) to create a P12 file, instead of a certificate (.cer) file, you can upload that P12 file using step (1b) on the Intel XDK Cordova iOS Build panel. See Exporting an Apple iOS* P12 Certificate File for instructions on how to do this with an Apple OS X system (export a "distribution" or "production" certificate rather than a "development" certificate to create a P12 file for building apps).
Additional Notes
Use your App Store and Ad Hoc certificate to generate one or more iOS Distribution Provisioning Profiles. These mobile provisioning files are needed for testing (Ad Hoc) and for submitting your application to the Apple App Store (production).
If you wish to use the Debug tab with an iOS device, you will need an Apple Development Certificate (see Creating an Apple iOS* Development Certificate) to create a "debuggable" version of Intel App Preview that can then be installed on your USB-connected iOS device for use with the Intel XDK Debug tab.

The Chevrolet S10 truck series was manufactured between 1982 and 2003, and included the S-15, GMC Jimmy and Blazer variants. Several engine choices were used: the 2.2 and 2.5 liter four-cylinder gasoline motors, the 2.8 and 4.3 liter V-6 engines, and an early diesel. Later models included on-board diagnostic computers. As the design was improved it became easier to maintain and troubleshoot with additional computer sensors, and a migration to electronic components instead of mechanical ones. Recalls and design flaws were reduced by the end of the vehicle's run, and repair of the S10 was simplified relative to comparable models.
The early years of the S10 model were focused on creating competition for Asian small trucks, and their economy and reliability. The S10 was offered with a heavy, iron cast 2.5 liter four-cylinder, a diesel motor and a 2.8 V-6 from the car divisions of General Motors. All were woefully underpowered, and the V-6 was notorious for being unreliable as a truck motor. Problems with the V-6 were heat-related head failure, computer-controlled carburetor issues and low torque. The 2.8 liter motor was replaced with the 4.3 liter version, which proved a more robust power-plant that was ideally suited for low-torque truck applications. The 4.3 evolved until it was the only engine choice available for the Jimmy and Blazer S10 variants. This V-6 had it's share of problems, including a design flaw that caused "loping" at idle. The 2.2 liter four cylinder was the replacement for the aged 2.5 "iron duke" motor, which was again borrowed from passenger car applications.
The S10 braking system was originally a front-disk, rear-drum set-up, which changed for the 1998 model year to four-wheel disk brakes. The addition of anti-lock braking systems in 1992 added to the complexity of the S10's brakes. Recalls for the newly developed ABS plagued the braking systems for the entire S10 line, and problems with the rear parking brake that was incorporated into the disk brake design were common. The hydraulic master cylinder design had not changed much during the production, and problems are rare. Additional issues with the S10 brakes are usually caused by the materials used for replacement parts, and ceramic pads are known to be better on these trucks than semi-metallic ones.
Problems with the construction of the interior developed with the introduction of the second generation of S10s in 1993. On the first generation models, interior dash and panel materials were of higher quality and secured with sturdier mounts; the second generation's loose, mostly plastic panels often squeaked and rattled, unlike previous model's different construction techniques. These interior changes were spurred by a need for lower production costs, and a new dashboard platform for General Motors products. The closure of the New Jersey GM production facility shortly after the second generation's introduction also forced most of the part manufacture to Canada, where the new interior parts were made.
Independent Front Suspension
The S10 uses an independent front suspension for four-wheel drive models, which was a trade-off for the small size of these trucks. IFS became common after the launch of the S10, especially in SUVs. The twin-axle, constant velocity joints are more delicate than their solid axle counterparts, and problems can occur with poorly maintained axle boots leaking fluid. This can dry out the joint, and wear down the internal bearings quickly.
While the available parts for the first generation trucks were common, the second generation design suffered from quality replacement part problems and a lack of support for Jimmy and Blazer aftermarket add-on parts. Issues with defective parts were with the fuel pumps, on-board diagnostic sensors and intake manifold gaskets, which were not manufactured to factory specifications. Using quality parts for replacement became a problem, especially after the model was discontinued in 2003 in favor of the all-new Colorado pickup truck.

For months latching on to every failure, the columnists, pundits and others who mould the accepted view of a presidency have praised Mr Clinton's performance at the G7 summit. By common consent, he displayed authority, tact and leadership.
This July week has been a triumph for the White House packaging machine - guided by David Gergen, the former adviser of Republican presidents who was summoned in those dark hours at the end of May.
Before the meeting, the administration propelled expectations so low that mere agreement on a communique would have been counted a success. In the event, the Seven came up with an unexpected agreement to reduce trade barriers and a dollars 3bn ( pounds 2bn) aid package for Russia that was slightly larger than expected.
In both instances the President claimed the credit loudly and used the G7 gathering to send the message that the US's well-being depends on the global economy. In 1992, Mr Clinton saw how a perceived indifference to domestic problems cost George Bush the presidency. He will not make the same mistake: the summit might be in Tokyo, but its real purpose was jobs back home.
Mr Clinton and his planners played the card of youth, underlining the change, fresh ideas and energy which, for all his missteps, he symbolises for much of the world. Thus did commentators here read his meeting with the new generation of Japanese opposition politicians, 10 days before next Sunday's general election.
Finally, there was the summit's postscript, a 'framework' agreement on ending the trade feud between Washington and Tokyo. On close inspection the US has failed on arguably the crucial point, unable to extract from Japan a promise to reduce its trade surplus to a specific percentage of GDP. But earlier talk was that nothing would be achieved. Mr Clinton can say he is 'doing something' to create jobs at home.
The skilful control of the media message extended into South Korea. Admittedly at the banquet offered by President Kim Young Sam, Mr Clinton apparently had his hosts twitching with discomfort, first over an erroneous reference to the President's wife as 'Mrs Kim' (in Korea married women keep their maiden names), and then over a protocol breach over the use of an interpreter. More important though were the television pictures the next day: of Mr Clinton determined at the Demilitarized Zone between the two Koreas and of his enthusiastic welcome among the US servicemen stationed there, complete with a saxophone workout. After the roughest start of any modern presidency, Mr Clinton seems to have found his sea-legs.

By AVI CREDITOR
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The New York Red Bulls turned some heads by trading a 2013 first-round pick and allocation money to the Portland Timbers for veteran striker Kenny Cooper, a move intriguing for a number of reasons, none more than the fact that New York already has a full stable of first-team strikers in Thierry Henry, Luke Rodgers and Juan Agudelo.
Despite the transaction fueling speculation that Agudelo may be hitting the transfer market, Red Bulls sporting director Erik Soler offered a staunch denial that the club was shopping the 19-year-old forward.
"No we're not," Soler told reporters at the MLS SuperDraft. "There's been interest in Juan ever since I came here. There's a lot of clubs that want him, and at some stage he'll probably go abroad, but I think the time isn't there yet."
Instead, Soler gave simple reasoning for making the move: Agudelo will be busy with international duties this year, Rodgers' U.S. work visa has not yet been renewed and the club did not want to be left short-handed at the position.
"We have a situation where we have Juan Agudelo where he will play for the Olympic team, he's going to be playing qualifiers, he's going to be away with the (senior) national team the way it looks, so he's going to be away for a long time," Soler said. "We simply need to ensure that we don't get into a situation where we have injuries and have no one to put up top."
Rodgers' situation should work itself out, Soler said, but the club does not know for sure yet whether his visa will be renewed, and until it does, it cannot take his place in the lineup for granted. He expects to have a resolution within the next three weeks.
"We have to be open to the fact that Luke Rodgers had a one-year visa and that visa isn't renewed at this very moment," Soler said. "We think it will be, but it's not for sure.
"We think there's a good chance, but he had the (criminal) record before he came. He's been absolutely fantastic when he's been here. There's no reason we think not to have the visa, but still it's not on our table and we don't want to take any risk."
Soler added that he is confident in Cooper being able to contribute in New York, despite his inconsistent play for Portland last season. Cooper is a player that has long been on Soler's radar, and years after initially chasing him, the former U.S. national team striker is now on his roster.
"Kenny Cooper is a player that I tried to move out of the U.S. five years ago to Rosenborg in Norway when he went to 1860 Munich," Soler said. "He's a good player that will suit us. He's big. He's not really a target man, but he's good with his feet, he can move around and he can score goals."
The Cooper acquisition was the second of the day for the Red Bulls, who officially announced the addition of Swedish centerback Markus Holgersson as well. While Holgersson should provide cover if Tim Ream's proposed move to Bolton goes through, he might not be the only answer at the position. Soler said another contingency plan is in place if Ream bolts to England.
"We should have an announcement on that coming up should Tim leave," Soler said.
very good for big man…his movement off the ball is good also
B Colby
and won the Emirates Cup
There are very few tall strikers that are very good mainly because they are not as aguile and can't play the ball very well. Cooper is similar and Portland is very lucky they got rid of him. Another example, is Gomez who may shoot many goals in the Bundesliga but on the German national team just about always gets outclassed by Klose.
Tommy Mac
Thank you Mr Soler…I mean "gus". Just like the other erroneous reports about current NYRB – DeRo not being notified of his trade by any senior management, Ream being handed a "contract extension" by Soler on a team bus, Henry fighting with Backe in the locker room, etc etc – are also untrue. Oh yeah, and Erik Soler didn't lead IK Start into relegation and near bankruptcy in Norway… Sad thing is this train has also already wrecked.
That raccoon sounds interesting. Anybody know a restaurant in the Ironbound that does feijoadacoon?
Johnny Ramone
Clearly you have an agenda, Sir. You may be able to get a job working at SBI if this keeps up.
Hasn't Backe stated publicly on more than one occasion that he doesn't consider Juan Agudelo a striker, and that his future with RBNY will be on the wing?
Frankly, I wouldn't be surprised to see RBNY trade Agudelo in 2012. Perhaps he is MLS's solution to Chinggate:
MON: Agudelo
HOU: Ching
RBNY: allocation $
Where the hell do they get the money for this?
If they can get rid of Marquez then they can buy Ballack for that mid and really solidify it
Start the Agudelo to salt lake rumors. That would be awesome.
As a college student who group up 5 minutes from Harrison and now goes to college in Montreal.
I love love love that idea, as long as Agudelo would get time. Agudelo and Braun could work very well together.
group = grew. whoops
This explanation still doesn't make any sense. Or rather, it justifies an acquisition, but not Cooper. Why would you take on such a big salary and give up that much allocation money for a guy who is 4th on the depth chart at forward? Even if you expect him to get minutes, your resources are limited and you have needs elsewhere. We still don't have an answer at GK, we have no cover anywhere along the backline, and all we have off the bench in midfield are Ballouchy and McCarty, neither of whom is particularly inspiring. In light of all that, again, why give up so much for a 4th striker? You'd be much better off getting a lesser forward and spending some of that precious cap space elsewhere.
If Soler has some kind of plan that will plug all of these holes under the salary cap, then OK. But if we start the season without a complete squad with an expensive 4th striker sitting on the bench, I'm going to be pissed.
Johnny Ramone
That is the the singlemost ridiculous comment not posted by a Sounders fan. Why would RBNY goalong with that when they can sell him abroad for more money & keep him from playing against them. If he's in the US, he's at RBNY.
Timber Jim
You will find that Cooper's foot skills are about one-quarter as good as he thinks they are. He's incredibly frustrating to watch as he tries to dribble by players, losing the ball over and over.
And his movement off the ball is good, just aimless.
I'm so happy you think he brings good value. I'm laughing all the way to Jeld-Wen Field.
Tommy Mac
I do indeed have an agenda (as a season ticket holder last year that gave it up this year, and as a Jersey soccer player my entire life)….to have a quality franchise in NY. But please argue any of my points if you are able to defend Soler and Backe, I would love to hear some defensible arguments. Perhaps the Ream contract, Henry dissent, and IK Start disaster are not worthy of posts on this board?? On a separate note, I agreed with Ive's rankings of the MLS Draft on Fox Sports….NYRB dead last. DISGRACE TO ALL PROUD METROS FANS.
Never believe anything Soler says about a player. He and he coach have no credibility. He planned on keeping Kandji and Tchani and all the others too. The Red Bulls will never win more than they lose until Soler and Backe are fired.

Labour has condemned the early closure of the coalition's flagship £1bn scheme to tackle youth unemployment, branding the whole programme an "abject failure from start to finish".
The Youth Contract scheme, championed by Nick Clegg, the deputy prime minister, paid subsidies to companies for each young person hired between the ages of 18 and 24. The wider scheme – due to run from May 2012 until the general election – was aimed at helping half a million young people, with enough subsidies for 160,000.
However, it has been criticised for handing out the subsidies to companies that would have employed young people anyway, and not helping them into longterm jobs. The most recent statistics showed that by November last year only 10,000 wage incentives had been paid out.
The scheme will now stop taking applications in August, a month earlier than planned, with the government saying it will use some of the unspent money on other projects to bring down unemployment instead.
Despite a jobless rate among 16- to 24-year-olds that is still several times the overall UK rate, the Department of Work and Pensions pointed out there has been "the largest fall in youth unemployment since the 1980s".
"The Youth Contract has contributed to that by providing over 200,000 opportunities for young people, helping them to get the experience and training they need," the government said.
"As part of the government's long-term economic plan, we'll be re-investing the wage incentive money in other projects targeted at those young people who face the biggest challenges to getting into work, so everyone can share in the growing economy and improving jobs market."
However, the shadow work and pensions secretary, Rachel Reeves, said only a "tiny fraction of Youth Contract employer wage incentives were ever used to get young people into work, and over 800,000 young people are still unemployed".
She said the government should instead introduce Labour's compulsory jobs guarantee – a promise to get every young person a job.

I hired a car from Avis Perth(downtown) on 28th Jan. The price quoted was 1604.28 Dollars which included a one way fee of 655 dollars as I intended to return car in Darwin.On finding out about flodding up north I returned the car to downtown Perth on 10th Feb. I would have expected to see a charge on my credit card for 884.28 dollars (to include Taxes & surchage) You can imagine my shock & surprise to find a deduction for 2174.49 dollars from said card.No explanation offered or given. By my calculation 1833.89 Dollars has been stolen from my account. Me thinks its time the pPolice became involved.
The above star rating is very generous but review would not be accepted without giving one.
I would not recomend this company to my worst enemy.

MILBANK — Two area men were sentenced to time in the State Penitentiary in Grant County Circuit Court Tuesday.
State's Attorney Mark Reedstrom said 18-year-old John Murphy of Summit was sentenced to 6 years in prison and Benjamin Sessler, 31, of Milbank received a sentence of 8 years.
Judge Ronald Roehr sentenced Murphy for his role in a break-in last spring at the Marvin Bar where a vehicle and chains were used to pull the barred front window from its frame. A quantity of alcohol was taken.
Sessler was sentenced for possession of controlled substance, methamphetamine. Reedstrom said Sessler was currently on parole for a 2004 conviction for possessing meth with intent to distribute.
Roehr suspended 4 years on a number of conditions and gave Sessler credit for 217 days he has already been in the county jail.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
The women that I was living with for three years, threw me out with all my cloths to the street. I was been mistreat and threat by her family, when she moved them in to the house. The woman and I had two daughters. I found out after she threw me out, she moved with her lover. She seldom let me see my daughters
its been several months now. She told me do not come ever or will sue me, so that I can loose the custody. I am 25 years old I came illegal to this country, now I'm about to loose my daughters and will probably be deported or send to jell, she threaded me to call 911 and tell them I will rapture my daughters. She is a USA citizen..I am afraid that I will never see my daughters again. Please Help me!
First, you must immediately file for custody if you truely want your daughters to live with you instead of with her. The longer you wait, the more likely it will be that the Judge will wonder why you didn't file sooner. Second, as to whether you should file for an order of protection, her merely threatening to report you to USCIS is not grounds to file for same.

Scientific Measurement
Significant Figures!
Adding and Subtracting with sig figs
a quantity that is both a number and a unit
Fundamental to experimental sciences
Helps make very big or small numbers easier to work with.
A measure of how close a measurement comes to the actual or true value of what you are measuring.
A measure of how close a series of measurements are to one another
Follow the Rules!
Sometimes you'll be asked to write your numbers to a particular number of sig figs.
The difference between what you got and what you were supposed to get.
experimental value - accepted
What you got
What you were supposed to get
True value = 42 cm
You got = 41.5 cm
41.5-42 = -0.5
% Error
l error l
accepted value
If it isn't a zero it's significant.
Every nonzero in a reported measurement is assumed to be significant.
Zeros in between nonseros are significant
zeros appearing between nonzero digits are significant.
Zeros on the far left are just
placeholders (not significant)
Leftmost zeros appearing in front of nonzero digits
are NOT significant.
The zeros at the end of a number, after the decimal point are always significant.
Zeros at the end of a number and to the right of a decimal point are always significant.
Zeros at the end of a number with no decimal point are just placeholders.
Zeros at the rightmost end of a measurement that lie to the left of an understood decimal point are not significant if they serve as place holders to show the magnitude of the number.

Round the number of sig figs to the same number as the one with the least number after the decimal point
14.12+ 7.3=21.42
Round the answer to the same number of sig figs as the measurement with the lower number of sig figs
Measuring with SI Units
The standard units in science are the metric system (base 10)
The International System of Units (abbreviated SI) is a revised version of the metric system
The 5 SI base units in Chemistry are the meter (m), kilogram (kg), Kelvin (K), second (s), and the mole (mol)
Table 3.1
SI unit: meter (m)
For larger or smaller measurements, use prefixes!
Common metric units of length include the centimeter (cm), meter (m), and kilometer (km)
Common unit is the liter (L), a non-SI unit
1 L=the volume of a cube that is 10 cm along each edge (10cm x 10cm x 10cm)
Common metric units of volume are the liter (L), milliliter (mL), microliter (uL), ans cubic centimeter (cc, cm^3)
SI unit=kg
gram (g) is the base;
1 kg = 1000 g
Weight and mass are two different things entirely, even though they are used interchangeably.
Weight is a force that measures the pull of gravity on a given mass
Mass is the measure of quantity of matter
Temperature is the measure of how hot or cold an object is.
Temp determines the direction of heat transfer. Heat flows from warmer to colder objects
SI unit=Kelvin (K), although the Celsius (C) scale is used often as well
Possible to convert between the two units:
Kelvin does not have any negative temperatures
Absolute zero= 0 K
Equal to -273.15 C
Nothing can be colder than absolute zero
Energy is the capacity to do work or produce heat
Common units are the joule (J), which is the SI unit, and the calorie (cal)
1 cal is the quantity of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1 g of pure water by 1C
Conversion between cal and J:
1 J = 0.2390 cal
1 cal = 4.184 J

And quantity two, is there any individual who uncertainties that these males picked up pugilism to knock out any person who mocked their names – definitely, Kermit and Vivian, when we say "these guys" we suggest "you."
Xbox Fight Evening Spherical Four's distinctive combating layouts are because of a further evaluation. It is really no thriller that you've experienced several a boxing match. No matter with all the summary of your respective overcome, another thing has remained authentic considering that the beginning. Versions make fights is what each one enthusiast of the sweet science will let you know, regardless of the overuse within the maxim.

Firstly can be the Common Boxer – he virtually sticks while using the rudimentary points, when angling to established objects up collectively while using the jab. And later on, a unique faculty of imagined is the Unconventional Boxer, who throws fundamentals out the window, picking a far more intense method.
Yet another style will be the Slugger, that has a tendency to stick together with the electrical power punch. You have most likely guess the Slugger would not do a lot of defense. Conversely, Xbox Struggle Evening Spherical 4 capabilities the Brawler, who makes use of electrical power punches as well, but throws in a couple defensive qualities to harmony concerns out. Nevertheless an additional style and style in Xbox Combat Night Spherical 4 could be the Counter Puncher, during the conditions of EA "a slippery, in-the-pocket defensive style fighter." Opposite with the Counter Puncher, the Boxer Puncher sets up more substantial punches from the medium length, his modus operandi a great deal more conservative.

Charles Douglas Goddard was born on 24th June 1920, and came from Croydon, Surrey, and then enlisted into the British Army direct from school, joining on 6th April 1936 when aged 16 as a Boy (No.6202957) the Middlesex Regiment.
Posted to the 1st Battalion, he saw service in Singapore from 5th February 1937, and in Hong Kong from 20th August 1937, and having attained the age of 18 then saw service as a Private from 24th June 1938, being appointed to Lance Corporal on 9th October 1939, and with the outbreak of the Second World War was still on service in Hong Kong, being there when the Japanese eventually declared war in 1941.
The Japanese crossed the border from China into the New Territories just as the news of Pearl Harbour was reaching the outside world. Warned by good intelligence, Hong Kong's defenders were all in position.
Waiting for the Japanese on the Mainland that December 8th were the Mainland Brigade, consisting of three of the four most experienced infantry battalions available to the garrison, the 2nd Royal Scots, the 5/7th Rajputs, and the 2/14th Punjabis. Supporting them were No. 1 Company Hong Kong Volunteer Defence Corps (HKVDC), mobile guns of the Hong Kong Singapore Royal Artillery (HKSRA), and elements of all units necessary to support an army in the line. All came under the command of Brigadier Wallis.
The main weight of the defenders manned the Gin Drinkers Line (the one, weakly prepared, defensive line across the Mainland). It had not even been intended to defend this line until the unexpected arrival of two Canadian battalions (the Winnipeg Grenadiers and the Royal Rifles of Canada) just three weeks before. These two battalions, in conjunction with the 1st Middlesex (arguably the best prepared of all the infantry battalions) made up the Island Brigade under Brigadier Lawson.
Forward of the Gin Drinkers Line, C Company Punjabis and elements of the Royal Engineers had already started fighting a delaying rearguard action, blowing up bridges and tunnels in front of the advancing Japanese.
These pre-dawn activities were out of sight and out of mind as far as Hong Kong's citizens were concerned, but the 08:00 bombing attack on Kai Tak Airfield, Sham Shui Po Barracks, and Kowloon changed all that. The Colony and its people now knew that war had arrived.
The key strongpoint of the Gin Drinkers Line – expected to hold out for at least a week – was the Shing Mun Redoubt. In the area of the line held by the Royal Scots, it was manned by A Company's HQ and number 8 Platoon, and elements of 1 Mountain Battery HKSRA. The senior officer was A Company's commander, Captain 'Potato' Jones.
Two hours after nightfall on December 9th, Japanese attacked the Redoubt from Needle Hill just to its north. 'Redoubt' is a poor term for a few pillboxes joined by concrete tunnels, surrounded by wire and manned by around 43 personnel. By early morning of the 10th, the Japanese held the position having killed 3, captured 27, and let 13 escape.
The Royal Scots fell back to the next high ground – Golden Hill. There were no defensive positions here, apart from a few scrapes, and the ground was as hard as rock. Early on December 11th the Japanese attacked – initially with mortars which inflicted horrific casualties as they burst on earth that was more like concrete.
The majority of the Royal Scots fell back in extreme disorder as a Japanese infantry attack followed, but D Company struck back and re-took the position. However, by this time it was clear that the Gin Drinkers Line had been irreconcilably compromised, and leaving 28 dead behind the Royal Scots were pulled off the hill.
Maltby, the GOC, had decided to evacuate all troops from the Mainland. Those holding the western part of the line were to fall back via the ferries of Tsim Sha Tsui, while those holding the east were to fall back via Devil's Peak.
The evacuation proceeded smoothly, apart from a party of Punjabis who became lost and ended up forming a defensive barricade around the Star Ferry in Kowloon, holding off the Japanese while the last ferries left, and the Hong Kong Mule Company who had to leave most of their mules on the Mainland due to a lack of lighters to take them off.
By early on December 13th, the evacuation was over. In delaying the Japanese by five days, Maltby had lost just 66 dead from a total force of 14,000.
From December 13th, all that lay between the Japanese and Hong Kong Island was a narrow stretch of water. Armed with good intelligence, they took the opportunity to destroy much of the Island's military infrastructure with shells and bombs. It became a war of counter-battery fire as the batteries on the Island fired back – though many were destroyed in the process.
With all forces back on the Island, there was a reorganization. Two new brigades were formed, East Brigade under Wallis and West Brigade under Lawson; the dividing line ran due south from the east side of Causeway Bay. East Brigade consisted of the Rajputs on the waterfront with the Royal Rifles and 1, 2, and 3, Coy HKVDC behind them, and West Brigade consisted of the Punjabis on the waterfront and the Winnipeg Grenadiers and 4, 5, and 7 Coy HKVDC behind them, with the Royal Scots forming a bridge between the two Indian battalions and 6 Coy HKVDC in a number of locations. The Middlesex manned the majority of the pillboxes defending the Island and therefore reported into both Brigades.
The scale of the shelling and bombing has long been underestimated. The whole north shore of the Island – from The Peak down to the waterfront – came under intense fire. Military areas were hit – Mount Davis Fort, Belchers, Pinewoods, troop concentrations, the pillboxes; institutions were hit – Central Police Station (two killed), Bowen Road Hospital (over 100 hits), the Royal Naval Hospital in Wanchai (over 100 hits), the Bank; and residential areas – rich and poor – were struck with great loss of life.
However, the biggest single explosion came not from enemy action but from a simple mistake. On the night of December 12th, the barge Jeanette, laden with tons of dynamite from Green Island, was accidentally fired on by Z Company Middlesex from pillbox 63. The resulting double explosion killed everyone on board and blew in most windows of Central district.
Twice the Japanese asked formally for surrender and were rejected. At least once they probed the north shore of the Island as a preparation for the invasion. Then, in a lucky strike (the smoke clearly visible in some aerial cine-film taken at the time) they set a paint factory and oil tanks in North Point ablaze.
By December 18th, the Island was a mess. Maltby had lost a further 54 dead, many of the pillboxes were useless, and the infrastructure was so badly damaged that it was almost impossible for vehicles to proceed down some of the northern streets such as King's Road.
Among both officers and men, the only question is where the Japanese invasion will fall. Will it be Central? Not the best place for a landing, but with good embarkation points in Tsim Sha Tsui. Or will in be North Point? The shortest sea crossing, but much further from Victoria. By 19:30 on December 18th, the question would be answered.
Well before midnight on December 18th the 5/7th Rajputs ceased to exist as a fighting unit. Killed, wounded, captured, or simply isolated, they had been torn apart as the Japanese assault troops charged through them and made for higher ground. By dawn their assault has paused in the west thanks to the refusal of the HKVDC Hugheseliers to let them pass, but their penetration to the south has reached Wong Nai Chung Gap.
The whole of December 19th is dominated by the fighting for the Gap. Initially defended simply by Lawson's West Brigade HQ, 3 Coy HKVDC, elements of 5AA regiment, elements of the HKSRA, and the HQ of D Company Winnipeg Grenadiers, the battle sucks in A Coy Winnipeg Grenadiers, the entire 2nd battalion Royal Scots, Royal Engineers, and many odds and sods. The Japanese are soon effectively in control, but the day results in 451 fatalities amongst the defenders, the majority in this little valley.
To avoid being cut off, Wallis ordered all elements of East Brigade to re-form in the hills north of Stanley. This well-chosen position would leave him in touch with West Brigade, with the insurance of the Stanley Peninsular to his south should he need to fall back. Unfortunately he did not know that Lawson had been killed at 07:00 that morning and thus West Brigade was not under effective control.
On December 20th A Company Punjabis was told to relieve the Repulse Bay Hotel which had come under attack that morning. At the same time East Brigade struck West along the same road. The Punjabis got no further than Shouson Hill, whose commanding peak was already held by the Japanese. East Brigade penetrated as far as the hotel and castle Eucliffe (just to the hotel's south west) before coming to a halt thanks to Japanese forces on Middle Spur and Violet Hill.
On December 21st East Brigade made an individual attack on the Japanese holding Wong Nai Chung Gap. The plan was to drive north to Tai Tam Gap, then head due west via Gauge Basin to the area that how houses Park View. However, this attack was halted by strong Japanese resistance in the Red Hill area. Some elements were redirected via the Repulse Bay Hotel and made it as far north as The Ridge.
Meanwhile, the all-important north-south line had been stabilised thanks to the Middlesex on Leighton Hill. The Japanese desire to charge due west along the waterfront and take Victoria had been thwarted, thus their strategy change to forming a bulge in the hills (Mount Nicholson, Mount Cameron) south of the racecourse. With (from the Japanese point of view) Leighton Hill being impassable, and the Stanley area a sideshow, the focus became the Middle Gap – Wanchai Gap – Magazine Gap line from which they would be able to descend into the capital.
By December 23rd, as this bulge into West Brigade's lines was being created, East Brigade had been squeezed into the Stanley Peninsular. While they would be able to take no more part in the battle for Hong Kong from this position, they were in arguably the best location for a long holdout.
It was on the 24th December, Christmas eve, the day before the official surrender, that Goddard would perform the action which led to the award of his Military Medal. During the defence of Hong Kong Island, Goddard who was serving in Lieutenant Blackabay's 13 Platoon in "C" Company, was placed in command of Pillbox 33, together with the men listed on his mess tin, Lance Corporal Pennick, and Privates Funnell, Gentry, Pope, Webster, Francombe, Morley, Remer, Riddell, and Wilderpin. They manned this posted from the 8th to 25th December. 13 Platoon itself was tasked with manning Pillboxes 31, 32 and 33. According to one reference, Pillbox 33 was located at Tung Ah Pui village on the Shek O Penisular on the south of Hong Kong Island and away from the main city. It is still viewable to this day. The Middlesex Regiment History states that the pill box was near to Stanley View, located to the east of Repulse Bay and west of Shek O and adjacent to Chung Hom Kok. Between the 8th and 24th December, Goddard and his men whilst manning the pill box, endured almost continuous shelling and bombardment, with one man, Private Louis Remmer, being killed in action on 10th December as a result of this. The regimental history goes on to state that Goddard's post 'which was just east of the observation point, was attacked by the Japanese with rifle fire and grenades and the crew forced to withdraw. A counter-attack led by West, however, restored the position and drove off the enemy.' But up till the 24th December, Goddard, according to his own statement, had not yet seen a Japanese soldier for real.
Located where his pillbox was, on south side of Hong Kong Island, and therefore away from the main area of direct threat, Goddard and his men found themselves sent to support a depleted company of the Royal Rifles of Canada, one of the two Canadian battalions present in the battle. The book 'The Fall of Hong Kong' by Tim Carew, pages 182 to 185 takes up the story.
'To Corporal Charles Goddard of the 1st Middlesex the Canadians will always be an incalculable race. Goddard was not the only soldier in Hong Kong who found them so, for they were alternately demoralised and determined; cowardly and courageous; ill disciplined and fiercely self reliant. You never knew, said Goddard, whether a Winnipeg Grenadier or a Royal Rifleman of Canada would stage a one-man bayonet charge, save your life or run like hell. Goddard, nicknamed 'Pop' because of his premature baldness – had been in the army for eight years. He had started his military career as a band boy, but the best efforts of the bandmaster, accompanied by the direst threats, had done nothing to make him an accomplished saxophonist. During band practice at least half of his mind had strayed to a more practical weapon of war: the Vickers medium machine-gun.
After missing three whole bars of the Pomp and Circumstance march at an Officers' Mess guest night, Goddard got his wish and was transferred out of the band to a machine-gun platoon. Goddard stands six feet three inches and weighs one hundred and ninety-six pounds, not an ounce of which is superfluous. He fought in the regimental boxing team as a heavyweight and performed prodigies of valour for the rugby football team in the middle of the back row. Goddard was pleased to hear that the Japanese had landed because for twelve days and nights he had been shelled and bombed in a pill-box without seeing a single Jap. This did not suit Goddard's temperament and he said so with dogged persistence. His determination to get into battle drew from one of the more phlegmatic members of his section the statement that 'old "Pop" wants to win this bloody war all on his own'. On 21st December, however, Corporal Goddard viewed his assignment with mixed displeasure.
His section had been detailed to provide support for a depleted company of the Royal Rifles of Canada. It was at once apparent to Goddard that these Canadians needed all the support they could get. They were in marked contrast to the cheerful, ribald and indomitable Cockneys of the Middlesex. These men of the Royal Rifles wanted no more part in this war: within a fortnight of their arrival in the Colony they had been bombed, shelled, sniped and thrown into costly and abortive counter-attacks. There was nothing glorious about the war they found themselves in: the men who had vociferously expressed their confidence in licking the pants off any goddam sonofabitch Jap was leaderless (their officers had all been killed), dispirited and demoralised. They lay around the foot of Stanley Mound in inert heaps, smoking alphabetically.
They were not advancing because they were too tired and had been without chow for twenty-four hours; in any case, no one had told them to advance. They were not retreating either, because they did not know where to retreat to. They should have been digging in, but the ground was rock hard and in any event they had no entrenching tools. They should have been doing something about the small party of Japanese established on the top of Stanley Mound, who sniped at them with insulting impunity. With rare effrontery a Japanese machine-gun sprayed them and sent them burrowing further into the inhospitable terrain. 'I'm getting out of here,' declared a disgruntled Private. 'That's a great idea,' said his neighbour bitterly. 'Where d'you figure on going?'
Goddard remembered the arrival of the Canadians: they had been confident and cheerful and had marched from the troopship with a springing quickstep. Now they were grey faced with fatigue, dirty, demoralised and fed-up – a miserable and dispirited rabble. Goddard put his section into position under the disinterested stare of the Canadians. 'Just our luck to get lumbered with a bunch like this,' said Private Milroy disgustedly. The other members of the section expressed their dissatisfaction in uncompromising terms: 'We were supposed to leave the Japs to them.' 'Yes, promised us we wouldn't never be needed.' 'Look at 'em now….' 'Couldn't fight their way out of a ---- paper bag.'
The Japanese machine-gun opened up again and the bullets whined spitefully over Goddard's head. 'Get on that gun,' Goddard ordered Private Jack Millroy, 'and give 'em a few bursts. I'm going to find out who's in command of this lot.' 'When you find him, tell him I want a posting,' said Milroy. Goddard made a quick appreciation of the situation. The Japs, he judged, were not on Stanley Mound in any great force: indeed, judging from the volume of fire coming from the top, there could not be more than twenty of them. It was, he decided, a ticklish position but not one that sixty determined and well-led men could not take care of. With two platoons of 'D' Company he'd go up that hill like a dose of salts…. Goddard found a thin, sharp-featured sergeant sheltering in a small cave at the bottom of the slope. The sergeant was lighting a cigarette and regarded Goddard with open hostility. 'You in command of these blokes?' asked Goddard. 'What's that to you?' countered the sergeant insultingly. 'I asked you a question.' 'Yeah, I heard you. Now blow.' Goddard tried another method. 'You're not just going to sit around and let those bastards snipe you, are you?' he said. 'If you wanna be a hero, then go right ahead,' said the Sergeant indifferently. 'Me, I like it here.'
In full view of a group of astonished Canadians, Goddard took two paces forward and lifted the sergeant bodily off the ground by the front of his shirt. 'You'll either fight them or me,' he said ominously. And such was the steely inflexibility of Goddard's voice and grip that the challenge went unanswered. 'Okay, you guys,' said the sergeant. 'Get off your tails. We're going in.' Goddard strode amongst the Canadians. He harangued, derided and cajoled them. He told them that they reminded him of a bunch of old whores on a picnic. But he infused in them a fighting spirit that had long been absent.
'Blimey,' said Private Milroy admiringly, 'old "Pop" thinks he's a ------- general or somethink.' 'Take that gun a bit to the left, Jack,' said Goddard to Milroy, 'and give us covering fire. Pump it into 'em as hard as you can. I'm going to take that hill.' 'And the best of luck,' said Milroy, who had been on a charge for insubordination more than once. 'You and who else?' 'Less of your lip,' said Goddard. 'Get on that gun.
Soon Milroy was firing long bursts up the hill. With Goddard at their head, the Canadians swarmed up the slope. They were halted at the crest by a hail of bullets which tore ugly gaps in their ranks, but the attack was pressed home at bayonet point and the Japanese were driven off. 'Hell, I didn't want to go into that attack,' said a Canadian private afterwards. 'But the spirit of the bastard was such that we had to.' Which is praise.'
'Monkey' Stewart, 'Mickey' Man, Henry Marsh, Major Hedgecoe (the Black Prince), R.S.M Challis, Jack Milroy (the Black Mamba), the 'onourable 'orrible Marable, 'Pop' Goddard, Herbert Davies, the Welsh Parson; Sergeant Bert Bedward – these are the men the Middlesex talk lyrically of at reunions nearly twenty years later, for these are the men whose conduct in the battle was consistently brave and in the finest traditions of Diehards.'
Goddard's recommendation for the Military Medal, made after is release from captivity, reads as follows: 'For gallantry and good leadership. On 24th December 1941, this N.C.O with an officer of the Hong Kong Volunteer Defence Corps was in a position supporting a Company of the Royal Rifles of Canada. A strong Japanese attack developed against the Canadians who were driven out of their position. Corporal Goddard immediately displated commendable initiative, organised supporting fire and led the Canadians personally in the counter attack which was successful in regaining the position.' His award was published in the London Gazette for 29th August 1946.
Christmas Eve saw no great change. The street fighting in Wanchai intensified, and the defenders in the hills above Central were pushed further back. Casualties were mounting fast. Dawn the next day saw the Stanley defenders pushed back further than St. Stephen's (scene of not the biggest, but certainly the most sadistic, massacre of the fighting), the defenders in the hills pushed further west than Wanchai Gap, and the Wanchai defenders pushed west of Mount Parish, almost to where the Hopewell Centre is today.
By 15:15 Governor Sir Mark Young, after consultation with Maltby who himself had consulted with those defending Victoria, ordered the surrender.
In Stanley, cut off from normal communications, the fighting continued until early next morning. By 02:30 all firing had ceased. Hong Kong had been captured. Of the 14,000 defenders, 1,500 lay dead. Almost twice that number would die in the three years and eight months of captivity and deprivation that were to follow.
Goddard was amongst those men taken prisoner on the 25th December 1941, and would then spend the remainder of the war in captivity, suffering the harsh treatment meted out to the prisoners. Goddard was ferried across to Kowloon and initially incarcerated at Shamshuipo Camp in the northwestern part of the Kowloon Peninsula from 29th December 1941. In January 1941 this camp became rationalised as the main camp for British Army and Hong Kong Volunteer Defence Corps men, and was the main camp in Hong Kong during the war. Whilst in this camp, Goddard was under Major Boon, the British Officer appointed Camp Leader, and in Captain Webber's block.
Having decided that it made more sense to turn the POWs into slave labourers so that more Japanese might be freed up for the armed forces, a series of transportations to the Japanese homeland began.
The first, the Shi Maru, left Hong Kong in September 4th 1942 with 620 POWs aboard These were the 'hard men', many of whom had refused to sign the 'no escape' chit. The majority came from the Royal Scots, the Middlesex, and the Royal Artillery, with a handful from the Royal Navy and other units.
The second, the Lisbon Maru, sailed with 1,834 men on September 27th. Torpedoed by the SS214 Grouper on October 1st, it sunk of the Zhoushan archipelago on October 2nd with great loss of life.
The third transportation was on January 19th 1943, on the Tatsuta Maru, and included 1,180 men. This was also the first draft that included Canadians, although only one officer accompanied them.
Goddard was with the third draft which departed from Hong Kong on 19th January 1943, and sailed to Japan aboard the Tatsuta Maru. On his arrival in Japan he found himself sent to Osaka Main Camp at Chikko, where he remained till 17th May 1945, as part of the group of prisoners under Warrant Officer Fryer, Royal Artillery, and with Fryer, was then moved to the neighbouring camp at Akenbobe, from where he was liberated when the Japanese surrendered. Of his time as a prisoner of war, Goddard states in the sabotage section that he worked slowly, but other than that, 'anything else not worth mentioning'.
However in the dedication in Carew's book the following is mentioned in reference to why he dedicated the book to Goddard amongst others: 'I narrowed the field down to three men: Sergeant Marable (known to a privileged few in the Sergeants' Mess as 'Horrible'), Corporal Goddard and Private Milroy. All served in the First Battalion (Duke of Cambridge's Own) The Middlesex Regiment. In four years of captivity – years of appalling humilitation, malnutrition, misery, cruelty and privation – this indefatigable trio were ever present thorns in the sides of their captors. They reduced the Japanese to exasperation and, eventually, unwilling admiration. They indulged in insubordination and what the British Army euphemistically termed 'dumb insolence'. They flagrantly sabotaged every Japanese working project with the most explicit Trade Union efficiency. They greeted beatings and deprivation of Red Cross parcels with loud and defiant raspberries and the ribald utterances that only instinctively spring to the lips of the indestructible East End Londoner. They devised an illicit still and drank to ultimate victory in a concoction which would have made red Biddy taste like still lemonade. The selection of these three men may cause an outcry from other military quarters. But they were representative of the type of man which the Japanese tried to humble – and so signally failed to do so. They were, in fact, British soldiers.'
In the newspaper article 'Ex-Japanese P.O.W. Re-lives War Years' as published in The Armagh Guardian and South Tyrone News for 24th November 1960, Goddard further recounted of his time in captivity.
'Last night he recalled how he had seen fellow-prisoners beheaded for smuggling newspapers into the camp…. How another had to have his feet amputated with a jack knife without anaesthetic after being tortured…. How a guard who had shown them kindness was strung up by his thumbs to a flag-pole until he died. "Our food was just rice, 10 ozs. of it a day," he recalls. "Day after day, week after week, and month after month."
A former heavyweight boxer and member of the regimental rugby team he weighed just half of his original weight of 13 stone at the end of the war. "I saw one of my friends die at 36 pounds," he says. "I wasn't as badly off as others because I was a good thief,' he says, recalling the time he stole rice rations from the dormitory of sleeping Japanese soldiers. "Actually we would eat anything, and some of the boys became experts on weeds and snakes."
"Some of the Japanese could be bribed, with soap for instance which we used to make ourselves, or when they found out how to do this, with axes, locks, spoons, anything that they wanted we would make in camp. In return we got a few cigarettes."
"This was when I was working in the Osako shipyards, one of the largest in the world, where there was always opportunity to steal pieces of scrap metal. Many of us indulged in a petty sabotage, petty because the punishment was so heavy. There were always minor 'accidents' and I can remember a corvette which had just been out on trials returning to port because the deck had worked loose with vibration – most of the rivets round the engines had been dummies."
'Goddard was working in copper mines when the war ended and after he had phoned General M'Arthurs' headquarters at Yokahama a flight of American bombers swooped overhead and dropped supplies. "The most welcome sight, I'll ever see."
Goddard arrived home in the United Kingdom on 31st October 1945, and was granted 28 days leave, before being promoted to Sergeant on 20th August 1946, and seeing serving with the Home Counties Infantry Training Centre. Goddard was posted on release leave on 24th June 1947, and discharged on 31st October 1947.
Goddard went on to find work in farming and then with the Post Office as a Clerk out in Drumquin in County Tyrone, Northern Ireland, delivering letters round the area on a bicycle, and in 1955 joined the Post Office as a Clerical Officer in Armagh. Around the same time he then enlisted through 'Special Enlistment' with the Army Emergency Reserve into the Territorial Army on 21st August 1956 at Armagh, joining as a Sergeant (No.23465012) the 5th Battalion, Royal Irish Fusiliers, a unit of the Northern Ireland Brigade, being immediately appointed Drum Major of the Battalion Drum and Pipe Band.
It was for his work with the Pipe Band that Goddard was awarded the British Empire Medal in the New Years Honours List published in the London Gazette for 1st January 1963. The recommendation reads as follows:
'Sergeant (Drum Major) Goddard joined the Middlesex Regiment in April 1936 and served with them until October 1947 when he was demobilised. During this period he served mostly in the Far East and was captured by the Japanese after the fall of Hong Kong. He was a prisoner from 1941 to 1945 and was awarded the Military Medal for gallantry during the attack by the Japanese on Hong Kong. In February 1956 Sergeant Goddard joined the 5th Battalion, Royal Irish Fusiliers (TA) in Armagh and because of his previous military service and outstanding ability was promoted Sergeant straight away and given the appointment of Drum Major. Since that time Drum Major Goddard has worked ceaselessly to train the Drums and Pipes and maintain them at a high standard. In a country area such as this Battalion it is not easy to keep a Pipe Band together or get them together for training due to the amount of travelling involved. Nevertheless due to his untiring efforts Goddard has succeeded in maintaining a very efficient Band who have given public performances in many Ulster towns as well as in England and Wales when the Battalion has been at Annual Camp. By his own efforts he recently raised sufficient money to enable the Drums and Pipes to buy and have emblazoned a new set of drums. Goddard himself has attended every Annual Camp since 1956. In addition in 1959 he gave up a week of his own holidays to do an attachment with the Irish Guards in order that he might receive instruction in the duties of a Drum Major. Since he joined the Territorial Army he has averaged 380 drill attendances a year, 350 more than the annual basic requirement of 30. As Drum Major Goddard is largely responsible for the running of the Armagh Boys Brigade as well as being involved in various other voluntary activities the extra time he devoted to the Territorial Army above the minimum drills required is a good illustration of the service he has rendered to the Battalion since 1956. The Drums and Pipes are a great asset to the Battalion and one of which they are proud. The high standard they maintain and the many duties they undertake is almost entirely due to the enthusiasm and untiring efforts of Drum Major Goddard who is most strongly recommended for this award.' His award was presented by Lieutenant General Anderson.
Goddard transferred into the Territorial Army and Army Volunteer Reserve on its formation in 1969, and in the same year was awarded the Efficiency Medal with T.A. & A.V.R suspension in April 1969, one of the first such awards, he having been discharged that same year on 13th February 1969.
Goddard was a member of the Royal British Legion in Armagh, and later travelled with his wife out to Hong Kong to visit the War Memorial's there, before travelling on to Australia to visit his daughter, and whilst there, he died suddenly.

Rusty Fowler stays positive after Abu Dhabi toil
By Matt Smith
ABU DHABI (Reuters) - Rickie Fowler admitted he is struggling for rhythm after slumping to a third-round 73 at Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championship on Saturday which left him among the tournament's also-rans.
The American began his Middle East debut confidently, matching world number one and playing partner Rory McIlroy with a first-round five-under 67.
But a triple bogey in a second-round 75 dashed any hopes Fowler had of adding to his meager trophy haul and the 26-year-old was unable to arrest his form slump in Saturday's third round.
"It's just golf, it was a little rough today," a downbeat Fowler told Reuters.
"The course is great, nothing has changed. I just got into a bad rhythm for a couple of days. I made some good swings on the last."
Fowler, relegated to the early starters after narrowly making the cut, did little positive on the front nine, bogeying the sixth hole as he struggled to find the fairways.
He double-bogeyed the 10th, made his first birdie on 13, dropped another shot at 15 before a final-hole eagle added gloss to a tough day on the National course.
Fowler said that last putt would give him something to take into Sunday's final round after which he will fly home to the United States to begin his build-up to April's U.S. Masters. Continued...

"I Don't Give a Damn About My 'Bad Reputation'": Glee Talks Back
There's something really cool about how the last episode of Glee ("Bad Reputation") unintentionally engaged in a call-and-response with previous Antenna posts that offered viable critiques of episodes this spring (as well as critiques from other pop culture infused TV shows: "Jeff Hates Glee," Community 1.18.)
Figures I would end up with the one that "packed it all in" (damn you, Mary Beltran!)… Just when Glee makes you think you're indulging yourself as a viewer lost in the joys of song and dance, it taps into a range of emotions and provokes thought—so a disclaimer that there's no way I can cover it all in this column. (Have at in the comments!)
There are 4 key themes that struck me the most in this episode. The first is how "Bad Reputation" offered up an insightful commentary on current YouTube culture (and also the show's YouTube/iTunes culture). The "Glist" that propelled the narrative asked to think what it means to live in a world in which being ranked and literally counted is what matters most, regardless of the "content" of what/who is being viewed. This appears to be somewhat generational at first, as Sue is pained when her singing and dancing is made public…But the episode quickly turns something culturally and historically specific into a series of universals.
Thus theme 2: the universal pains of invisibility—including a lack of voice and being desexualized/oversexualized. The foiled attempts of the "off-Glisters" (Arty, Tina, Mercedes, Kurt, and somehow, in a screamingly funny way, Brittany) to become visible to the point of being willing to be expelled meshed beautifully with Emma's public flogging of Will as a slut and Rachel taking advantage of "her boys" to soothe her own ego (and what a charming gender role reversal that was!). Even Sue showed vulnerability as she struggled with slow-motion laughter and how to deal with her wave of conflicting emotions.
Thus theme 3: Here we saw some genuine character development, really reminding me of The Mary Tyler Moore Show and its gentle, incremental character growth. Emma's final speech to Will about needing to come to know each other as they truly are was a much more real step than the claiming of her sexuality that occurred in the Madonna episode, as was Rachel's "too late" awareness of her self-centeredness as being rooted in an insecurity that ultimately hurts others as well as herself. And who would've thought the line "You're a really great teacher, even if everyone is saying you're a man whore" (from Quinn to Will) could carry such weight in representing the severe pain of Quinn's situation as a pregnant teen? But of course, the moment I cried (oh, yes, I cried) involved Sue's heartfelt moment with her sister Jean—the only content character in the episode, who is perhaps the most invisible in terms of societal knowledge. A simple story about two bears leading to a simple yet tremendously powerful declaration and promise of eternal sisterly love. It was, quite frankly, the kind of moment I live for on TV.
And thus theme 4. Here was the episode that dared to challenge the central appeal of the series: that there is pure pleasure to be had in the joys of music and dance. The idea of context and intention mattering ran strong through the show's musical numbers; performers don't always send the message they desire and audience members should from time to time think through why they love and hate what music (and TV) they do. I found Rachel's story goal of "musical promiscuity" to be the most telling in the end. There is a "dark side," if you will, to the arts of song and dance and TV…a tendency towards exhibitionism and aggrandizement (that even Olivia Newton John noted in regards to her "Let's Get Physical" video). Just because something/someone is popular and fun doesn't mean it/they are important or unproblematic. And, just because something/someone is popular and fun doesn't mean it/they are not important or valuable. I think this is the essence of Glee's appeal: It "mashes" together the old and the new, the shallow and the deep, and in the end asks us to appreciate that our lives are much like popular culture—sometimes bad, sometimes silly, sometimes painful, and sometimes a little ridiculousness that can lead us to something sublime.


text: Decades have passed since any composer wrote an operatic aria that has wormed its way inside the public's affections in the way that arias by Mozart or Puccini still do. The most recent, perhaps surprising, inclusion in Radio 3's "nation's favourite aria" list, unveiled yesterday after a listeners' poll, is 90 years old, from Korngold's Die tote Stadt. Musical progressives have often been high-mindedly disapproving about arias – too formal, too much of a star vehicle, too disruptive of the drama. The public, though, remains obdurately enraptured by them. Music, after all, began with singing and an aria – an air in English – is simply a self-contained vocal number for a soloist, expressing heightened emotional or musical tension. Arias come in all languages – not just Italian (just four in the Radio 3 list). They not only served composers and audiences well from the era of Purcell (the earliest composer on the list) to that of Puccini. For all the lack of new arias, the old ones have remained the keys that unlock the world of opera for successive generations. A century ago, the aria, often three or four minutes long, was an ideal fit for the new 78rpm discs, bringing voices like Caruso and Melba to the far-flung millions who would never get near an opera house. Twenty years ago, Pavarotti singing Nessun Dorma as the Italia 90 World Cup theme triggered another opera surge. Composers may not write many arias any more, but as the response to Radio 3's quest shows, the older melodies certainly linger on.
