The controversial pilot scheme in the Technology and Construction Court (TCC) to test whether judges can act as mediators looks doomed to failure after being used just twice during its first year.
The judges' mediation scheme, when launched, was greeted with derision from solicitors, arbitrators and mediators, who described it as a terrible idea and not in the public interest (The Lawyer, 5 June 2006). And following the pilot, few minds will have been changed.
The chair of the Technology and Construction Solicitors' Association, CMS Cameron McKenna construction partner Caroline Cummins, said: "People like judges to be judges, as that's what they're good at."
An interim report from King's College London shows the pilot scheme, known as the Court Settlement Process, received no interest from litigants in the first quarter of its two-year study.
The research found that almost a third of disputes settled were as a result of mediation, with almost half of the mediators being barristers.
Fenwick Elliot construction partner Nicholas Gould, who was the author of the interim report, said: "At the moment it's pretty clear that private or commercial mediation is preferred to using a judge.
"Many parties feel that they want judges to give orders and push things forward, which is very different skill sets from mediation."

Interested in Calgary?
We'll send you updates with the latest deals, reviews and articles for Calgary each week.
Topics include Transportation, Canada: For Foreign Visitors & more!
The dining scene in Calgary is quite diverse; it's a far cry from the days when Calgary cuisine seemed to be dominated by steak houses, pancake chains, and the occasional pizza place or Chinese restaurant. Today, you can find food from all the major international cuisines (French, Chinese, Italian, Japanese) done very well indeed, and many other cuisines (Indian, Greek, Thai, Mideastern, Vietnamese, Korean, Ethiopian, German, Moroccan, Spanish) are also well represented.
Please note that there is no requirement for Calgary restaurants to post menus (and most do not), so you may want to ask to see a menu before you're seated, to be sure that the food selection and prices are in step with your expectations.
A note on smoking: Effective January 1, 2007, a city bylaw banned smoking in all restaurants and bars, and also on their outdoor patios.
"Look, all kitchens are filthy, Mr. Fawlty. In fact, the better the kitchen, the filthier it is." -- Fawlty Towers, "Basil the Rat".
Fawlty Towers notwithstanding, most people would like to dine in restaurants with clean kitchens and a good health record. However, as Basil Fawlty's cook points out, a clean and organized dining room doesn't necessarily tell you anything about what goes on in the kitchen. So it is a very good idea to check the online restaurant inspection records before dining out.
Restaurant inspections for Calgary and area are now available through online search; make sure to have the name and address of the restaurant handy. The five most recent reports for each restaurant can be viewed.
An all-day sit-down breakfast is available from several locally-based chains, such as Smitty's , Phil's , and Humpty's . Cora's and EggsOasis are open only for breakfast and lunch. All of them are family-oriented.
Diner Deluxe and Dairy Lane Milk Bar are popular local destinations at breakfast time. New breakfasts gathering postive reviews include OEB Breakfast Co., BIG Fish (brunch), and Thomsons Restaurant.
In Jan. 2010, locally popular breakfast restaurant chain Nellies was fined over $60,000 for repeated health violations at five of their locations. They also have a history of serious health code violations.
A good stop for lunch in the downtown core is Falafel King on 1st St. SW just a block south of the downtown Hudson's Bay store
Over 50 different food trucks, offering nearly as many different cuisine choices, can be found at various locations around Calgary in the warm months (May to October). Two websites list the various trucks available and may give you an idea of where to find them: www.yycfoodtrucks.com ("Official Site for Calgary's Food Truck Culture") and www.yycfoodtrucks.ca ("the home of the Original Calgary Food Trucks") . Two free apps available from iTunes may also help you locate and rate food trucks in Calgary. The Eat St app gives information on Calgary food trucks and food carts, as well as food trucks in Vancouver, Toronto, Montreal, and many US cities. Street Food Calgary focuses on Calgary food trucks only.
The Bloody Caesar (called "Canada's national cocktail" by some) was invented by bartender Walter Chell for Marco's Restaurant, an Italian restaurant at the Calgary Inn (now the Calgary Westin). That restaurant is now the Liquid Lounge. It is often thought that the drink originated at another Calgary restaurant, Caesar's Steak House, but in a 2005 interview, Gus Giannoulis, co-owner and co-founder of Caesar's, stated that the Bloody Caesar wasn't invented there, "but we perfected and promoted it."
Ginger beef is an established specialty of Calgary Chinese restaurants. It was introduced by Calgary restauranteurs Louis and Alice Chan at the Silver Inn in 1974. Although the Chans no longer run the Silver Inn (having moved on to operating many other successful restaurants) the signature dish of lightly battered, deep-fried beef strips in a ginger and chili sauce has been adopted by every Calgary Chinese restaurant. A good ginger beef dish is never chewy, and the spiciness varies from pleasantly gingery (for the first bites, from the top of the dish) to hot'n'spicy by the time you reach the last delicious morsels that have been soaking up extra ginger-chili sauce .
Big Rock beer - Calgary's Big Rock Brewery makes a wide variety of award-winning beers. They make a lot of different ales, and a few lagers. These are available at local liquor stores in cans & bottles, and on tap in restaurants & pubs. You can also take a brewery tour, or enjoy lunch at their Big Rock Grill (weekdays only).
Bernard Callebaut chocolates are award-winning Belgian chocolates, made in Callebaut's Calgary plant and sold at Callebaut stores throughout the city and in Banff. How can you make Belgian chocolates in Canada? By importing high-quality chocolate from Belgium to start the whole process, and then making it into couverture for a wide variety of fillings for boxed chocolates. The chocolates are treated with the greatest care to keep them fresh before purchase (the entire store is kept cold) and you will be given advice on the best way to keep your chocolates fresh after purchase and until they're consumed. A special treat is available at the end of November or beginning of December: specially-selected BC cherries, hand-dipped in chocolate and allowed to marinate in Kirsch liqueur for five months. Get them when you can; when they're gone, you'll have to wait until next year. (But don't forget about the pits!)
Teppan-yaki at the mall? Outlets such as Koya Japan and Edo Japan offer a modest Japanese teppan-yaki menu in Calgary's food courts. No fancy knife-twirling, just quick, healthy Japanese food, prepared right before your eyes. Calgary seems to be the source of Canadian mall teppan-yaki, perhaps due to the influence of early Japanese cuisine pioneers in Calgary, such as Rev. S.J. Ikuta and Peter Kinjo.
Prairie oysters, a traditional cowboy specialty, are featured at the downtown Buzzards Restaurant on their evening menu. For the adventurous!
Spolumbo's Italian sausages are gourmet sausages made by a Calgary company. Spolumbo's was founded by three players from the Calgary Stampeders CFL football team who were childhood friends: Tom & Tony Spoletini and Mike Palumbo. There are over a dozen types of Spolumbo sausages, such as mild Italian, chorizo, bratwurst, chicken apple, and turkey cranberry. They can be found in grocery stores and on restaurant menus in Calgary and beyond. Or you can visit their deli in Calgary's downtown Inglewood district to have a sausage sandwich, a sub, or panzerotti.
If you want more information on where to dine in Calgary, read My Favorite Restaurants: Calgary, Canmore and Beyond, by longtime Calgary restaurant reviewer John Gilchrist. This book is now in its 8th edition.

Revell 1/32 MBB Bo 105 35th Anniversary of Roth Version
Brand: Revell
Model Number: 04906
Scale: 1/32
- Description
- Reviews (0)
- Delivery
The Revell 1/32 MBB Bo 105 35th Anniversary of Roth Fly-Out Version from the plastic helicopter model kits range accurately recreates the real life Messerschmitt-Bölkow-Blohm multi-purpose helicopter in special livery. This model requires paint and glue to complete.
We also stock the full range of Revell Paints, Glues and Modelling Accessories required to complete this model.
The BO105 is the most successful helicopter design in the light utility class. Due to its agility it is suitable for many military uses. Thus in the 70's the German Army also received a liaison and reconnaissance version in addition to the anti-tank helicopter variant. More than 300 machines entered service with various Army regiments. In the meantime, the German Army has begun to disband its first BO105 units. For this occasion, a BO105 from Combat Helicopter Regiment 26 (CHR 26) Franken stationed near the town of Roth in mid-Franconia was adorned with a spectacular livery. As well as the Bavarian flag, a timeline of CHR 26, saluting soldiers, some of the city's landmarks, the city's Coat of Arms and a Hornet as the unit's emblem adorn both sides of this colourful helicopter.

Forests paying the price for biofuels
THE drive for "green energy" in the developed world is having the perverse effect of encouraging the destruction of tropical rainforests. From the orang-utan reserves of Borneo to the Brazilian Amazon, virgin forest is being razed to grow palm oil and soybeans to fuel cars and power stations in Europe and North America. And surging prices are likely to accelerate the destruction
The rush to make energy from vegetable oils is being driven in part by European Union laws requiring conventional fuels to be blended with biofuels, and by subsidies equivalent to 20 pence a litre. Last week, the British government announced a target for biofuels to make up 5 per cent of transport fuels by 2010. The aim is to help meet Kyoto protocol targets for reducing greenhouse-gas emissions.
Rising demand for green energy has led to a surge in the international price of palm oil, with potentially damaging consequences. "The expansion of palm oil production is one of the leading causes of rainforest destruction in south-east Asia. It is one of the most environmentally damaging commodities on the planet," says Simon Counsell, director of the UK-based Rainforest Foundation. "Once again it appears we are trying to solve our environmental problems by dumping them in developing countries, where they have devastating effects on local people."
The main alternative to palm oil is soybean oil. But soya is the largest single cause of rainforest destruction in the Brazilian Amazon. Supporters of biofuels argue that they can be "carbon neutral" because the CO2 released from burning them is taken up again by the next crop. Interest is greatest for

Open thread for Sunday, November 18th: Everyday is Like Sunday edition
Here is the open thread for Sunday, November 18th; please feel free to leave links to interesting articles as well as to discuss whatever issues may arise during the day. Nothing is off-topic here.
Now that the election is over, and partially due to a slowing response to the open threads, I have decided to cut down the open threads to one per week. I will be posting the open threads on Sunday for the time being, but who knows, they may pick back up again and if they do I will be more than happy to go back to two per week.
For today's musical selection I chose Morrissey's song entitled 'Everyday is Like Sunday' because, well, it is Sunday. Morrissey was the frontman for the '80's band 'The Smiths' until they broke up in 1987, shortly after I discovered them.
This was I believe the second single Morrissey released as a solo artist if I am not mistaken, 'Suedehead' being the first, and it was probably his biggest solo hit.
In this song Morrissey laments what he sees as the loss of the British seaside due to the influx of tourism and the commercialization of the area compared to the way he remembers it growing up. Today we are lamenting the loss of the America we knew growing up as the statists continue to gain control over the country and influence with the people with the intent of fundamentally changing the United States of America.

Is it just me or is anyone else a little more bummed (subdued) for the holidays? I am just NOT in the spirit and wondered if that was a general consensus???? I kind of have that "don't care this year" thing going on!
Georgia Peach permalinkNovember 18, 2012 10:55 pm
Most definitely, I have been bummed since the election and had to step back for a while to allow my brain to absorb what happened. Now that I am over the shock I am trying once more to find out what is going on. I have always been out of sorts during the holidays but this year is bad. At least it is the one time of the year that I get to see most of my family together in one place.

Found this little article over at CNSNews.com :
The White House announced the federal government will spend $6 billion over four years for a "sustainable energy future" plan with Asian countries that involves loaning tax dollars to other countries to increase their purchasing power for U.S. technology, services and equipment.
My question is….WHO are we going to BORROW the money from to GIVE it to them? What about OUR "sustainable energy future"? Guess heis playing "big shot" over in those foreign countries, wish he would just stay there.
November 20, 2012 5:47 pm
Here is the full article: http://cnsnews.com/news/article/white-house-announces-6-billion-promote-clean-energy-asia
My bad, I didn't read the full article, guess we are just fine,,,read this about the Export=Import Bank it will be coming from.
I KNOW it makes me feel better about the money.

The had these tubes of mirrors set up coming down from the surface so that they didn't need electric lights, and for five minutes every hour they had sprinklers running on the roof in order to keep it cool so that they did not need to use air conditioning. There were three rooms in which the wine ...
Tastes of Home
... to meet me in Monterosso later in the week. On my last morning in Florence after another baked bean and egg breakfast enhanced further by lasagne, I bought a leather mask from the markets which made a rad souvenir from the leather capital. I can't say I was entirely wooed by Florence. Beautiful city, but maybe not overall my cup of tea. I'd say it's more of a cappucino destination. My style is definitely South Italian espresso. Italy just never stops surprising me ...

Amagami SS+ plus - Episode 10 Discussion / Poll (Sae After 2)
Welcome to the discussion thread for Amagami SS+ Plus, Episode 10.
Thread Guidelines
I am prepared for more of the Narrator's sexy voice!
Aww hell yeah, Junichi tapped that hard :cool: Now that's the kind of ending the other girls should have had.
Haruka's first ep is titled "Sexy"? Looks like they really are saving the best for last :naughty:
Oh wait, no. Sorry.
Well, this arc, I must say, ended up, well, ending the closest to my ideal romance ending of all the arcs yet. (well, obviously Tsukasa's ending int he original series would be included in this too) Nice, happy get-together with a time-skip to several years later where the two have a nice, happy family.
Yeah, I'm such a sucker for romance. :heh:
And after ten weeks of waiting (well, we still have a week to go 'til the episode actually airs....), we're finally
Haruka! :love:
Considering the couple in question, I fully expect this to be filled with the ba-couple moments and lovey-dovey sequences. And the preview shows this very well could be what we get. :D
Nice end to Sae's arc. Haruka next!
Pick and choose, pick and choose...
Do I use this post to focus on pregnant Sae, thereby revealing a side of me (too late), make a joke about how little Sae sounds like the Professor and wonder where Nano is, or descend into a thread solely to comment on the narrator and/or Inago Mask again, and in some way draw a comparison to OOO and the longevity of toku franchises (Is there a Let's Go Inago Mask?) in the process, given that it fits the criteria of being a Rider and involves Joji Nakata?
Apparently, all three.
I still curse that damn narrator. Would probably like Sae's arc a whole lot more if that guy just shut himself up.
I'm glad the whole thing wasn't just about Junichi feeling inferior. Was really worried that he'd just spend the days until the festival alone in his room with Sae movies playing....
It all ended nicely, that's for sure. Nice moment for them backstage and the timeskip to them as a family. I swear that kid takes after Miya, which pretty much confirms my belief that her and Sae are a better couple :heh:. On that note was fun to have Sae getting a counter attack on Miya for this one.
And finally the time has come. A long awaited return for Haruka! Considering she was my favorite from the first season this has been a long wait.
Anyways. This is an interesting converse to the situation with Ai, where he was the one busy. Now, it's a flip-side.
Wow. Didn't expect a time skip. But anyway, it's time for senpai's route :D
Here something interesting in the preview for episode 11 someone places someone's hand on someone's stomach is someone sick or is someone pregnant Haruka maybe? :heh:
Well I think Sae story turned out great from me it gets a 10.
Its really refreshing seeing couples getting married and having children... Sae's child is a clone of her... so nice...
Hmmm... Most of the heroines child are females... and clones.. hehehe
Love you Sae Chan!!!
Men and their wild imaginations.
In that case, I don't get what a "wild" imagination has anything to do with it. This show is written so that things are pretty straightforward and presented in a way that should be accepted at face value. It's a more logical conclusion that a man and a woman in a hotel room with the girl in a bath towel, is more likely than not going to end with a happy ending.
On topic though, I decided to wait the two weeks so I could watch the Sae arc in one sitting. I'm glad I did too, as it definitely wasn't my cup of tea and wouldn't have bothered with the second ep if I was watching it weekly. It's amazing how much the girl affects Junichi's development, as he was irritatingly hard to watch this arc. You love the guy in one arc, and despise him in the other. That being said, Umehara is pretty damn constant all around!
Oh well, we FINALLY get to what I've been waiting for. These next two eps should be a treasure.
I should also add that as much as I disliked the arc, I NEVER dislike a timeskip ending scene with the MC and his family. So thumbs up for that.
Anyways, this Sae arc was handled very well. And I'd place it 2nd after Ai's arc; and Sae isn't even at the top of my list among the characters in this series.
Haruka's arc is finally here!!! The writers better bring out their good stuff...

Pliirith's Return
"Not now!" Barked Jeredynn pressing both sides of his head with his dirt-stained knuckles, it sounded hurt
"But Jeredynn... I thought you liked me" came the faint ghostly voice,
"Get out of my head Pliirith!" ordered Jeredynn bashing at the side of his head wincing as she began to get louder, she asked him why he was so keen to see her off,
"There was a time you were glad of my company Jered" she chimed releasing a sickly schoolgirl's giggle, at one time he may have found it cute.
He tried to hide his thoughts, he tried desperately hard not to let her see what had happened since she left, he just had to let his mind wander, that was the key, to think about so much yet so little that she couldn't wade her way through it. He'd gotten rusty. A taunting wolf-whistle called at him,
"Who's she?" asked Pliirith, a drop of pain added to her tone,
"There isn't someone else is there?" Jeredynn knew whom she asked of, he'd let the thoughts of Carmen slip through in his mind, just for a second but that was enough, Pliirith was on them in seconds, using them to taunt him as she often did.
Jeredynn imagined her- a faceless shadow with two large innocently blue eyes, tapping one foot and folding her arms in a sort of mock housewife style,
"Well?" she asked, a definite tone of irritation to her voice, Jeredynn bit down on his lip and made fists of his hands,
"Nobody" replied the teenager and to that Pliirith exhaled heavily through its nose... if she even had a nose, and Jeredynn un-tightened his fists. At that moment the old chapel door swung open, Jeredynn turned to face Carmen,
"Wow... she is pretty..." Gasped Pliirith, probably using his eyes to watch what he was seeing,
"Well just have her back by midnight champ" she taunted then kissing her hand (presumably) and blowing him a kiss,
"I'll be back Jered..." said Pliirith with a melodic chime to her voice, a chime that sent dread resonating through Jeredynn like an earthquake.

Abercrombie & Fitch (NYSE:ANF) is a leading apparel company that primarily targets teens and young adults in the United States. It competes with retailers like Aeropostale (NYSE:ARO), Gap (NYSE:GPS), J.Crew Group (NYSE:JCG) and Urban Outfitters (NASDAQ:URBN), and owns apparel brands such as A&F, Hollister and Gilly Hicks.
Our price estimate for Abercrombie & Fitch stock is $60.44, roughly 10% above the current market price. We estimate that A&F stores account for 29% of the company's stock value compared to 25% for Hollister stores. The Internet & catalog orders contribute around 23%.
- Is Abercrombie & Fitch Up For Sale?
- Can 2017 Be A Good Year For Retail Stocks?
- Can Abercrombie & Fitch's Stock Price Recover From Its Plunge?
- Why Is Abercrombie & Fitch Partnering With Zalora?
- Why Did Abercrombie's Shares Rise Despite Missing Fourth Quarter Consensus Estimates?
- Another Tough Quarter In The Cards For Abercrombie & Fitch
For the full fiscal year, net company sales increased by 18%, with company comparable store sales increasing by 7%. The total company Internet & catalog orders sales increased by 41%. However, the company's operating margin was down by 2.5% for the full year. ((Abercrombie & Fitch Reports 4Q and Full Year Results))
Looking Ahead to 2011
Going into 2011, we expect the company could increase retail prices due to increasing raw material prices. However, with growth in consumer spending expected to pick up in 2011, demand for its clothing should remain strong. The company is also expecting to expand on the international front, which returned 79% growth in fiscal 2010. The company feels that international store sales have the potential to reach 30% by 2012. [1] [2]
The company's current strategy for 2011 appears to be to aggressively expand its store count on the international front while it will close down domestic stores that are not performing well getting rid of 10% of its lowest performing domestic stores. The company plans to spend around $300 million in 2011, which is more than double what it spent last year. Much of this is aimed at its international initiatives. [1] [3]
The revenue per square foot for both A&F stores and Hollister stores were significantly impacted during the recent economic downturn. However, they recovered considerably in 2010 as the company regained market share. Going forward, we expect their revenue per square foot to further improve driven by a rebound in consumer spending in the U.S. and growing demand at international locations, especially emerging markets in Asia.
You can modify our assumptions in the above charts to create your own forecast.Notes:

A crusty old Sergeant Major found himself at a gala event, hosted by a local liberal arts college. There was no shortage of extremely young, idealistic ladies in attendance, one of whom approached the Sergeant Major for conversation. She said, "Excuse me, Sergeant Major, but you seem to be a very serious man. Is something bothering you?" "Negative, ma'am," the Sergeant Major said, "Just serious by nature." "The young lady looked at his awards and decorations and said, "It looks like you have seen a lot of action."
The Sergeant Major's short reply was, "Yes, ma'am, a lot of action." The young lady, tiring of trying to start up a conversation, said, "You know, you should lighten up a little. Relax and enjoy yourself." The Sergeant Major just stared at her in his serious manner.
Finally the young lady said, "You know, I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but when is the last time you had sex?" The Sergeant Major looked at her and replied, "1955."
She said, "Well, there you are. You really need to chill out and quit taking everything so seriously! I mean, no sex since 1955! She took his hand and led him to a private room, where she proceeded to "relax" him several times. Afterwards, and panting for breath, she leaned against his bare chest and said, "Wow, you sure didn't forget much since 1955!" The Sergeant Major, glancing at his watch, said in his matter-of-fact voice, "I hope not, it's only 2130 now."

Dakota Fanning's Bed Scene Gets Previewed in New 'The Runaways' Still
"The Runaways" has got other sneak peeks as Apparition has released several brand new pictures from the film. Making their way out via Collider, three of them are black-and-white shots, one of which has Dakota Fanning lying on a bed and covering her body with a blanket while her co-star Kristen Stewart sits fully-clothed next to her.
In one of the full colored images, the two are also captured together, applying thick make-ups which match their old-fashioned costumes. In another still, meanwhile, Fanning and Stewart are joined by other cast who play the members of rock band The Runaways.
"The Runaways" is based on the 1970s all-girl rock band of the same name, which were brought together in late 1975 by impresario Kim Fowley. The film itself will cover the formation of The Runaways through to Cherie Currie's departure at the peak of their success. It will also highlight the relationship between lead vocalist/keyboardist Cherie and guitarist/vocalist Joan Jett.
Beside taking the lead roles of Cherie and Joan respectively, Dakota Fanning and Kristen Stewart also sing a number of songs for the film soundtrack. The blonde cutie performs "Cherry Bomb" as well as "California Paradise" and collaborates with the 19-year-old in "Queens of Noise" and "Dead End Justice".
Joining them in the cast ensemble are Scout Taylor-Compton who stars as Lita Ford, Stella Maeve as Sandy West and Alia Shawkat as fictional character Robin. This biopic which is directed by Floria Sigismondi will hit limited U.S. theaters on March 19.

Spare parts
Our products and systems are designed for use in industrial environments, where a high level of availability is essential. By using high-end equipment and intensive product standardization, we ensure high availability and reduce spare part handling right from the outset.
Whenever spare parts are needed, ANDRITZ METALS assists from the purchase phase up to installation and restart.
Repair/field service
Our worldwide network of highly qualified engineers is our customers' guarantee for fast service.

Upgrade and retrofit
ANDRITZ METALS products can often be upgraded to the latest software or hardware to improve the performance of the application.
ANDRITZ METALS products can be modernized economically by retrofitting the latest technology to improve performance of the application. As a result of the modernization work, upgraded equipment directly increases production performance, reliability, and operator safety. Upgrades range from software updates to replacing older/obsolete technology with modern power semiconductor technology. Thanks to our many years of experience with revamping projects, our modernization planning and management guarantee short production stops and fast start-ups.
Upgrade projects need long-term experience with the respective equipment. Reuse or renew, keep or relocate? Teams with interdisciplinary understanding evaluate the best solutions for revamps.
Operation and maintenance
From maintenance assessments, preventive maintenance and reconditioning, to spare parts and repairs on-site or within its workshops, ANDRITZ METALS offers all options in order to keep our customers' processes operational.
Predictive maintenance and condition monitoring
ANDRITZ METALS has developed its own Advanced Condition Diagnostics (ACD) system to monitor and predict the condition of parts and machinery. This system is based on acoustic emission (AE).
Faults can be detected sooner if parts and equipment are monitored. Down-time is easier to schedule,while maintenance stops can be extended and are easier to manage.
In addition, the ACD system can be used as a tool to control technological processes. For example, in
- cold rolling: Detecting edge cracks in cold-rolled strip
- improving strip quality in continuous galvanizing lines: Detecting/controlling unstable strip processing situations; i.e. monitoring ceramic bearings for pot rolls (inside zinc pot)

The revolution in the women's game moved on another stage when Steph Houghton was made England captain by new coach Mark Sampson.
The 25-year-old, who led Arsenal to a cup double last season, and was made Manchester City captain upon switching clubs this winter, will lead England out against Montenegro at Brighton this afternoon.
Houghton led England twice this spring while former captain Casey Stoney, 31, was injured, but with Stoney back in the squad, Sampson has made Houghton's leadership permanent.
"I wanted a captain who would lead the side for a long time coming," said Sampson. "Steph has many of the qualities needed to be an inspirational leader and the attributes that I want our team to epitomise. She's honest, hard-working, ambitious and has a winning attitude."
Saturday's match at the Amex Stadium is Sampson's sixth match but his first at home and his first World Cup qualifier. With four wins from four under caretaker Brent Hills, England are already well placed to reach Canada next year and Montenegro, pointless after three games, should be easily beaten. "Our focus must be in respecting our opponents and playing as close to possible to our highest standards," said Sampson.
Having called up 34 players, nine of them uncapped, and enjoyed the luxury of two extended spells away with the players, this match should finally reveal Sampson's preferred starting XI.Reuse content

Biore Skin PreservationSunday, May 24, 2009
Biore has created a line of skin care products for women from the "Inbetween Nation", those that don't need blemish control but aren't really ready for anti-aging. These are products that are meant to help you hydrate and prevent (hence, the SPF 30 in the daily moisturizer), but they don't contain drying acne treatments or expensive anti-aging ingredients.
I've been using this line for the last month or so and have been pretty happy, despite not exactly fitting into their "Inbetween Nation" definition (I do need some acne control and while I'm still wrinkle free, at 31 I probably should be using more anti-aging products). My skin has been well hydrated and other than a typical pre-monthly blemish, relatively clear. All of the products are ones that I would recommend to a friend, and if I wasn't in need of more anti-aging (and didn't have a huge pile of skin care sitting here waiting for me to test it), I would be pretty happy to keep using these products.
Clean Things Up Cleanser
I really loved this cleanser, for me it is the stand out product of the line. It is pretty gentle, a light green gel that creates a light lather, removes everything very easily, rinses off quickly and that I can even use to remove my eye makeup. I have no after wash tightness or irritation, and I'm pretty sure that this is a cleanser I will purchase again to use between product testings.
Even Smoother Scrub
This is one of those rare facial scrubs that I actually like. I have tested dozens in both my pre- and post-blog life, and very few actually live up to what I think a facial scrub should be. I want small, uniform and not-sharp grit. I want enough of it to feel like I'm doing something. I want it to be easy to rinse off and I don't want to feel like I have to re-wash my face afterwards. The majority of scrubs do not live up to these requirements, especially those from stores such as Target or Walgreen's.
This scrub is pretty good. It has small, even grit. It is easy to use. It rinses off well. I felt like it actually did help me to exfoliate. Add this to the very short list of scrubs that I will recommend.
See The Future Eye Cream
If you don't need a heavy eye cream, this will be a good choice for you. This is a basic hydrating eye cream that does absorb easily and quickly, creating a great base for all but the most stubborn of make up (case in point: the new MAC concealer I recently tested, which needed a more hydrating eye cream than this in order to blend well and last all day without creasing. This cream didn't work with the MAC, but was great with all of my other concealers).
Hard Day's Night Nightly Moisturizer
This is a bit of a heavier lotion than the Daily Moisturizer, though I did wish it was even more hydrating. It absorbs after about 60 seconds and feels pretty good on my skin. It isn't so heavy that I couldn't apply makeup over it if needed (though, it isn't really meant for that). Overall, it is a pretty basic hydrator.
Dual Fusion SPF 30 Daily Moisturizer
This is a bit of an interesting daily moisturizer since it comes in a pump that gives you a white lotion and a light green lotion at once. It reminds me of Aquafresh. There must be some ingredients that aren't quite stable when combined but are fine once on your face. This is a light lotion that does absorb very quickly and easily into my skin. It is just hydrating enough to my skin to prepare it well for makeup, but not so heavy that I become an oily mess by mid-morning. There's basically no scent to this product (another bonus), and I love that rather than the typical SPF 15 it has SPF 30.

wow wonderful ... I ll definitely try these fanatics for my beauty care. I love to do skin care.ReplyDelete

Would you still recommend the scrub? They've changed the formula. I loved the original, but the new one doesn't seem to exfoliate as well.ReplyDelete
I was also wondering if it's better to use a moisturizer without SPF because you generally only apply moisturizer after you wash your face in the morning and at night. So that means you're not reapplying the sunscreen during the day. And from what I've read, after sunscreen goes 'dormant' (not sure if that's the right word, but basically when it starts to wear off) you're actually more susceptible to the sun's rays than if you weren't wearing sunscreen at all.ReplyDelete
I haven't tried the reformulated scrub, so I have no idea. I'm really picky about the grit in my scrub!ReplyDelete
I've never heard that about sunscreen, it doesn't make much sense to me from a medical/scientific perspective and it isn't in any of the dermatology texts that I have, the sunscreen inactivates but it doesn't make your skin more susceptible to sun. Just because your sunscreen is in your moisturizer to start with doesn't mean you aren't reapplying, that's just your first application. You should still be reapplying.
I love comments! Please ask away, provide info on how you liked something, etc. Note that spam, comments with random links (which I count as spam), anything not in english (again, spam) and comments that are completely unrelated to anything will all be deleted.

Favorite Monks: Columcille (Columba)
(Also known as: Columba, St. Columcille, Saint Columcille, St. Columba, Saint Columba) _______________

Tell others about Jesus like Columcille did:
Though not all Christians are called to the ministry of an Evangelist, we are all called by God to share our faith (witness) with those who are not Christians. Some Bible verses that you will find helpful for doing this, and that you may want to commit to memory are found on other pages on our web site (see: Memory Verses; 2nd Set: Salvation!, Plan of Salvation, and Statement of Faith). _________________
by Monk Preston
"That man is little to be envied, whose patriotism would not gain force upon the plain of Marathon, or whose piety would not grow warmer among the ruins of Iona."
-Dr. Samuel Johnson, during a visit to the Island of Iona in 1773
Missionary to Pagan Scotland
Columcille (521-597 A.D.) was the Irish Celtic Monk who founded the Celtic monastery on the Island of Iona off Scotland where the Book of Kells was created, and converted the pagan Northern Picts (Northern Scots) to Christ. He lived about 60 years after St. Patrick.
Born into the Irish royal family in 521 A.D., his name in Gaelic was "Colum," which means "dove." Columba is the Latin version of the name. His nickname in Ireland was, and is, Columcille. Colum Cille means "dove of the church." At a very young age he was placed in a monastery. He was one of the best scribes (book copyists of illuminated manuscripts) of his age. He is said to have created over 300 books during his lifetime. One of his works is The Book of Durrow, which Monk Linda and I saw with The Book of Kells at Trinity College when we were in Ireland. It is considered one of the best of the illuminated manuscripts which have been preserved down to our time.
Founding Monasteries
Columcille started many monasteries in Ireland (some put the figure as high as 100), including those at Derry, Durrow, and Kells.
At the age of 44, Columcille left Ireland and founded the monastery on Iona (563-5 A.D.). It was a base from which he would bring to Christianity the Northern Picts of Scotland. It became the place where the Scottish Kings received final interment; even MacBeth is buried there. 100 years later Iona's ninth Abbot, Adomnan, would write a book called: Life of St. Columba.
A Desire to Carry the Gospel to a Pagan Nation and Win Souls to God
Why did Columcille leave Ireland? Adomnan says it was because of "a desire to carry the Gospel to a pagan nation and win souls to God."
Other reasons given (but they didn't appear in the records until much later) are because of the Battle of Cooldrevny, at which 3,000 died. One story says that Columcille copied a Psalter without permission and was ordered to give up the copy he had made. When he refused, his relatives backed him up, and Cooldrevny occurred. Another story says that during the battle Columcille prayed against those who fought against his relatives, and these suffered the majority of the casualties. In these stories, Columcille was banished from Ireland (or he banished himself) until he should convert as many pagans to Christ as the number of warriors who were killed in the battle (3,000). ______________________________
Contemplative Missionaries
The contemplative prayer life of Columcille and other Irish Christian monks included intense missionary activities. Celtic Christians never saw any conflict in this, as some of the later medieval European monks did. After all, they were just imitating Christ and the Apostles. These had prayed; these had preached the Word of God. Where was the conflict? Francis of Assisi would later come to the same conclusions. ______________________________
Columcille and the White Horse
Opposed by Druids
Not long after establishing the monastery on Iona, Columcille was preaching the Gospel on his way to Inverness, to witness to the Pictish King Brude. He was stopped by a group of Druid Priests, who demanded that Columcille and his twelve monks return to Ireland. These pagan priests claimed that Druidism was the true religion, and drew a circle on the ground, saying that Christ conflicted with the nature cycle. Columcille took his staff and drew an intersecting cross within the circle. Columcille said that God could not conflict with nature because God had Himself Created nature, and rather instead complemented it; working with it and through it.
Later, when Iona grew, wherever Columcille preached to the Picts, he would leave behind 12 monks, founding a new monastery that would become a center of Christian teaching, and eventually a Christian town. Though the Druidic Priests opposed him all the way, little by little the light of Christ covered Northern Scotland. Later, Ninian would bring Christ to the Southern Picts, and Scotland would be completely converted. One of Columcille's monks at Iona, an Irishman named Aidan, would be sent out to found a monastery at Lindisfarne, becoming the missionary monk who brought the Angles and Northern England to Christ.
The White Horse
Adomnan records a story about Columcille and a white horse. Columcille was 77 years old, and it is said that he was aware of his quickly approaching death (he died that very week; the year was 597 A.D.). Columcille was weary, and sat down to rest. The loyal work-horse that carried the milk-pails from the booley (cow-pen) to the monastery came over to Columcille and put his head against him. The servant who had been walking with him went to lead him away, but Columcille said to let him alone. Columcille felt that the horse sensed that he (Columcille) was going to die, and wanted to comfort him, or perhaps say good-bye.
Whether this particular story really took place or not, it is an illustration of Columcille's great love for animals, and they for him.

A simples guide
Yes you can, but there's a few things that you need to be aware of.Firstly, you can learn to drive with anyone provided they are:- 21 or over
- Have held a full licence for three years
Learning to drive parents car
The car that you use must be roadworthy, taxed and very importantly, it must have been insured for you to drive as a learner driver. So your parents will need to add you as a named driver to their insurance policy. There are a number of learner driver insurance options on the market, so it might be worth shopping around.
You must ensure that the car shows red L plates when you're driving, and remember you need them on the front and on the back.
You'll need to drive very responsibly and well within your limits. Driving school cars come with dual control, allowing the instructor to quite literally step in if required. Obviously your parent's car won't be fitted out in this way.
Make sure you've studied the theory side too. A driving test is made up of two parts, a theory test and the practical driving test. The theory side includes 50 multiple choice questions as well as a hazard perception test. Only when you have passed both of these will you be able to take your practical test.
Why use a driving school or an instructor?
We know that driving lessons are quite expensive and it might be tempting to get a parent to teach you instead.
On average it takes a learner driver around 30 to 40 hours of expert instruction to get to test standard. Unless you're lucky enough to have a parent who's a driving instructor, this means that it could take longer to reach the required standard.
A qualified instructor will have taken tough practical and theory tests. They're also regularly assessed to ensure that they are able to offer a high standard of tuition.
They'll know exactly what you'll be examined on in the tests and will be able to tailor your tuition to get you to that standard efficiently. Importantly, they'll also not teach you any bad habits that could unwittingly trip you up in the test itself.
An alternative may be to combine both approved lessons with some top up time from a willing parent. In this way you'll get all the best driving instruction alongside some more road time practice.
Whatever you decide, be safe, and good luck when it comes to test day!
