The range of personal career development options for high-performing senior executives in public service is extensive. And it can be hard to distinguish between them.
But if you aspire to get to the very top tier of influence and decision-making, you need a leadership programme that sets itself apart from the mainstream – one that's more comprehensive, more searching, more informed and more credible.
This year sees the launch of an entirely new leadership programme, devised by Solace and Inlogov. Total Leadership combines a state-of-the-art digital learning platform (where you'll have exclusive access to key research, evidence and cutting-edge thinking) with residential modules that will build on your individual learning, offering space to learn from experienced practitioners and creating a transformative shift in your leadership capacity.
As you'd expect, our facilitators and guest speakers are of the highest calibre, and you'll have a unique opportunity to engage with some of the most eminent people in public service on a 'small-group' basis. Moreover, the relationships you'll build with fellow participants, both from local government and its associated commercial partners, will be invaluable in your subsequent career.

They were one out away from defeat on Friday night in a game they should have lost. For eight innings,
Make that 44-1.
Down 3-0 and facing
It was just the third time this season
"Baseball is a funny game," said manager
With two outs and
"I thought it was just a tremendous at-bat," McClendon said. "He really battled and fouled off some great pitches."
Said Chavez: "I was just fighting with two strikes and trying to be selective."
Jackson had already stranded five runners in the game, including a pop-up to second with the bases loaded to end the fifth. But this time he came through, doubling off the Green Monster in left to score two runs.
"I did not know that was down," Ackley said. "I knew I got it up in the air. I saw Holt running for it and thought he might have a chance at it."
But it landed just out of a diving Holt's reach.
"Ack was running the whole way," Donnelly said. "It was luck of a draw at home plate. But he made a hell of a play."
The ninth-inning rally erased a frustrating sixth inning that started off with a bad break and ended with a bomb. Cespedes hit a towering three-run home run off
"That changeup didn't do anything," Hernandez said of the pitch Cespedes hit. "Give credit to that guy. I threw four in a row and he was looking for it and I just missed my spot."
Hernandez was cruising along, delivering his normal pitching goodness. He wasn't as efficient as he had been in past starts, but he still hadn't allowed a run in the first five innings. It started to derail in the sixth when the second-base bag got in the way.
But not this time.
"He had a good at-bat," Hernandez said.
AL wild card
The top two teams will play each other in a one-game playoff.

"And that's what you told Michael?"
"Jesus... you have any idea how insane that sounds?" Ursula said as she lounged on Chair.
"I've thought long and hard about this and it's the only thing that makes any kind of sense. That explains everything."
"I'm glad Chair is okay. I thought he might have got lost, or killed. We'd kind of forgotten about him in the heat of the moment."
"Oh these things?" Ursula said, patting an arm rest. "They're resilient little buggers. Besides, how'd do you think I found you in the first place. I said I had a bug. Small and hidden isn't always better, sometimes what you need has to be in plain sight."
"How long till we get there?"
"Less than an hour. I hope Michael's all right."
"He'll be fine. He knows what he doing... well, he doesn't, we've kind of been chasing phantoms and running from one hiding place to the next since we met." Gabriella chuckled.
"Our friend Michael doesn't seem to have very much in the way of any information. I don't know about you but I hardly know anything about him."
"No, me either, but that's hardly surprising, he doesn't know anything about himself either. Everything he did know, now he's found out it could all be a lie."
"I guess. That's got to be tough. I know how that feels. This body isn't mine and me, I'm not even a real person."
Gabriella got up and put a hand on Ursula's shoulder. "You're real to me."
Ursula squeezed Gabriella's hand. Her hand lingered, her fingers stroking the soft skin of Gabriella's fingers, then pulled away.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing. Everything. I don't know. I'm just going through a lot right now I guess. I'm confused, I don't know what is right or wrong any more."
"It isn't me is it?"
"No! Christ, no! No, it's just that I've spent my entire life betraying people. I've even betrayed myself. Somehow, I know that whatever happens, it's going to end badly."
Gabriella sat on her lap and kissed Ursula long and hard.
"You saved my life. That's a happy ending. And this," she said, kissing Ursula again, "this is a happy ending too. You're not cursed, Ursula, you're not evil. You're just you."
Ursula blinked back tears and kissed Gabriella passionately. "I've never known anyone like you."
Gabriella just smiled, her lips still pressed against Ursula face. Ursula picked her up like she was nothing and Gabriella gasped with shock.
"Where are we going?"
Ursula carried her to the bedroom. "We're going to have our happy ending."
* * * * *
Michael was tired of waiting, with what he had learnt he was getting antsy. He needed to see Triad now, he just hoped it was all right, after seeing what had happened in the Aether he wasn't sure. He was in the display chamber where he had first been introduced to Triad. The floor was littered with foul smelling gore where the nodes of Triad it chose to expose to it's visitors had been ripped apart, no doubt by more possessed Neutrals. Where they were now he didn't know, he hoped they were far away from here. He left the chamber and explored the corridors, looking for a passage that would lead to the areas below where the real Triad resided. Not once did he come across a body of a Neutral.
If demons can cross through now, then why hasn't that thing passed through? Why isn't Tetherson here? Maybe he can't. Maybe it's simply to large to cross over, it could be nothing is large enough to contain it, the other Triad would of course have it's own signature that would block it much like the original Triad. Or me. Then how would he even exist? All things Aetheric are shadows of their real-world counterparts, except demons. He claimed to be a hive-mind, he must have fused with demons, it's the only things that makes sense. But how? Why?
As he was thinking, walking along the corridors he heard a distant noise, a hammering of some kind, of blunt instruments drumming against metal. Curious, he headed the towards the sound, crouching low to avoid being seen in the dim light. As he approached, the sound got louder and louder until he finally stuck his head around a corner and pulled it back rapidly in fear. Tens of Neutrals were hammering at the door, maybe fifty or more, beating with their fists, their heads, their claws or whatever they could grab hold of. Some had ripped metal piping from the walls and were beating the over and over against the door. Occasionally, one Neutral would get in the way of another and be struck down as a pipe or claw crushed their grey, pale-skinned, bald heads. Bodies lay on the floor, their skulls caved in were they had obviously met a similar fate earlier.
Crap, how can I get past them? Michael thought. I can't Dive again, I still can't control it, who knows where I might end up, and I'm so close. There must be another way.

Jude: Now for the Bad News (28 of 29) by Roger Thomas
This content is part of a series.Jude: Now for the Bad News (28 of 29)
Series: Through the New Testament
Roger Thomas
Introduction: You can't always be upbeat, positive, and encouraging. The faith is about Good News. However, sometimes you have to talk about bad news. Sometimes you can't just say what you believe. You have to take a stand against what you don't believe. That's the message of Jude. Jude is a call for a strong, courageous defense of the faith. Sometimes you don't know how valuable what you have is until you have to defend it.
Jude is our next to last book in our journey through the Bible that we began in January of 2002. It is one of the smaller books. Someone has suggested that if Romans and 1 Corinthians (and even Philippians) are letters, then Jude and the other mini-books are more like post-cards. Based on the verse count, Jude is the fifth shortest book in the Bible. The shortest books are 2 John (13), 3 John (14), Obadiah (21), Philemon (25), and Jude (25).
A bit of background. We actually don't know much about when and where the letter was written. The author simply names himself ''Jude a servant of Jesus Christ and brother of James.'' There are at least seven men in the New Testament with the name Jude or Judah or Judas (all variations of the same Hebrew name). (1) An ancestor of Jesus (Luke 3:30); (2) The betrayer (Mark 3:19); (3) Thaddeus, one of the 12 Apostles (Luke 6:16; John 14:22; Acts 1:13); (4) A Galilean insurrectionist (Acts 5:37); (5) A native of Damascus (Acts 9:11); (6) A prophet chosen to verify the message of the Jerusalem Counsel (Acts 15:22-27, 32); (7) The brother of James, and ½ brother of Jesus (Mark 6:3). According to our best information, this last Jude is author of our post-card. He is mentioned as one of the sons of Joseph and Mary. (Mat 1:25; 12:47; 13:55). We know little about Jude except for what he tells us here. He must have been a humble man-he is satisfied to be simply known as a servant of Jesus and rest in the shadow of ...

So, what makes playing on the web so attractive? Yes, which you can play any recreation of your option without having to leave your favourite chair. Still, you're going to now not be served free drinks; you will now not be capable to observe the game you will have wagered on from large television screens; you can neither see the facial expressions of your poker opponents nor to listen to the sounds of the coins fall from the slot computer while you hit the large jackpot…
Here are the advantages of gambling on-line evaluating to traditional gambling:
Variety: how else can you soar from a web based poker room to the craps desk and to a bingo hall while staying seated to your most cozy chair? Most online casinos feature a huge sort of on line casino table games, slots and video poker machines. Furthermore, in lots of essential online playing companies you can swap from on-line on line casino playing to online sporting activities wagering with the same username and account.
Bonuses: where else can you acquire free money to gamble with? Most on-line casinos present free money bonuses with a purpose to entice new buyers and to maintain up with the competitors. The bonuses can begin from 10 dollars free just for downloading the casino application to a couple of thousand greenbacks for finishing a particular required amount of raked arms

Beginner pleasant: a land established on line casino may also be an intimidating place for the beginner gambler. The common on-line casino, however, is far more beginner friendly than its brick and mortar identical. Interactive tutorials, play cash modes and the alternative of averting social embarrassment precipitated by using misunderstanding of the foundations and codes of behavior is a extra pleasant welcome for the beginner casino gamer or poker participant
Security: yes, playing on-line is regularly safer than enjoying in a land based on line casino and carrying gigantic quantities of money cash on your pocket. Most on-line casinos are secure and professional corporations with the intention to no longer hazard their reputation and lose their consumers base with the aid of scamming their gamers
Furthermore to the record of advantages recounted above, on-line playing presents equal opportunity for individuals with disabilities or those who cannot have the funds for journeying out of their state to play in a legal land founded on line casino.
Nonetheless, reading about the advantages of online gambling makes the gigantic repute of online gambling, on-line poker taking part in and online exercises wagering much simpler to understand.

The Anti-Imperialist | Stephen Lawrence, Lord MacPherson and Sergeant XX
As the long-standing suspects of Stephen Lawrence's murder are put on trial, Adam Elliott-Cooper argues that only by understanding the context of institutional racism, and the overarching power structures that give rise to it, can we fully address these crimes and seek justice for their victims.

John Smith ADP Dealer Services Hires a Couple Scam Artists Washington Maine
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
ADP Dealer Services Scam and Fraud alert. I worked for Barbara for 3 years and I will tell you she is a major scam artist.
She created her business name so she could cash her business checks as personal checks. She does this to avoid reporting the income to the IRS.
Which she is currently under IRS investigation.
She is a very unhappy lady who drinks all day long. Avoid B Shoorl Inc at all cost. Looks like shes also working under an unregistered business RTS Schoorl Inc.
She claims her business is out of Las Vegas Nevada 6370 Annie Oakley DR. Las Vegas, Nevada which is a virtual office for 100's of fake companies (just google the address).
But really its out of her home on 10313 NE 161st Ave Vancouver, WA 98682. and also runs it out of an old hotel 2700 NE Andresen Rd D13 , Vancouver, WA 98661
Again she does this to avoid the "income tax". [continued below]....

Back to injury update question after injury update question.
Let me guess...day to day, and improving.
Sorry Hos, havent listened to podcast yet, I post all cowboys stuff first then go back and listen, but not having internet or tv has been rough, not posting and all but im suppose to have internet and tv back up the 19th.
I guess I don't understand Joe, was I complaining about you or the media? Because from where I sit I was complaining about the media and you wouldn't need to defend yourself.
didnt say you were complaining about me or the media hos. Just i didnt listen to podcast i posted till about 45 minutes later after i posted everything else.
Let me guess...day to day, and improving.
i thought you were asking what podcast said when you said let me guess, day to day and improving, and smh, not sure what smh meant.
That's what I was thinking.
Joe, I believe it is Nerd for "Shaking My Head" if I understand the translation correctly.

Do you want a doll that looks exactly like a baby? So just for you is here recién Nacido Llorona, that among these dolls belong. It is a series of toys manufactured by the Spanish company Llorens, whose dolls are all of high quality and handmade. Each piece can be considered as the original, which may belong to your Collector's Edition.
The doll is not among those speaking, that does not sound, so we appreciate the parents who do not like loud toys. It has a rubber body, which is captured virtually every detail of the child, including cute little body folds and gender. It's a boy, which is very similar to a real baby and even elaborate details. Perhaps in addition to its size, which is about 35 cm. The package also includes a blue blanket and bathrobe. It is packed in a cardboard gift box, so it is suitable as gifts for special occasions for girls since three years.
Toy meets European Parliament and Council Directive 2009/48 / EC of 18 June 2009 on the safety of toys and all legal standards under Czech legislation. Of course there is a declaration of conformity.
Specifications can be changed without notice. Images are for illustrative purposes only. Retail Price (MSRP) means the manufacturer's/supplier's suggested retail price.

text: Hello, I just downloaded the game with the install button from site. Game was fully downloaded and the install button changed to Play one. When I click on that one - the AuthPopupWidget shows up but I cant see anything on it. Its just a yellow window with a grey spinning spiral in the centre. I read the forums and the threads of ppl that have issues logging - so I updated 4game, checked the game files, Stop/started the 4game service, rebooted the page a few times - the issue is still persistant. I even left the widget for a long time (30 minutes +) because I started to think it needed a bit more time to load - still no luck tho. Is there anything that I'm missing or its an issue with the webpage itself? EDIT: after i ran cheker app, updated game (that said it needed to be done after the checker), restarted and tried 3 different browsers - finally was able to register using Mozilla FF. Issue resolved.

You might be thinking that all the really good players were drafted during the first round of the 2014 NFL Draft.
Well, if you ARE thinking that, then you are just plain WRONG!
Most of the players who will make the difference between your team getting better or worse are still sitting at home by the telephone.
The guys below all have huge NFL potential. Which one would you pick?
Derek Carr, QB – Fresno State
Rumor has it that the Oakland Raiders have their fingers crossed that this strong-armed QB is still available when they pick.
Marqise Lee, WR – USC
If he'd entered the draft year ago he would have gone in the top 10. Someone is going to get a steal when they take him!
Carlos Hyde, RB – Ohio State
This big bruising back is going to start for some team this year. Which one it is remains to be seen.
Austin Sefarian-Jenkins, TE – Washington
He's a big athletic tight end with great hands. There's a long list of team who would be thrilled to have him.
Ra'Shede Hageman, Minnesota, DT
Hageman is an athletic defender with the potential to develop into a monster as a pro.
Stanley Jean-Baptiste, Nebraska, CB
With so many DBs going in the first round, it's hard to believe that this long, rangy athlete with terrific ball skills is still on the board.
Carl Bradford, Arizona State, ILB
Bradford is a versatile thumper with excellent rush skills.

Dream Weaver: The Brain as Gymnast
Essay by: Bill Rayburn
Status: Finished
Genre: Memoir
All the furniture was set up as before. The same faces in the same roles in the same positions. It was eerie. The attention to detail was frightening, almost Michelangelo-esque. Like his famous sculpture, 'Madonna of the Steps', where a figure flows from a detailed torso to a point just below the waist where the legs simply vanish into mist. For every stark, graphic detail, there is a thought-provoking absence of same.
Weeks ago I'd had the same dream. One of those dreams with both living and dead family members in full regalia, where almost every OTHER detail was crystal clear, while certain aspects my subconscious clearly chose to remain murky, out of my grasp. A dream where memory was shrouded, and only employed sporadically, a sign my unconscious mind was shielding me from something. That's what makes dreams so fascinating and open to interpretation. They combine fact and fiction, the fiction's source being a singular one; the human subconscious. It makes for a potentially fascinating recipe of what was, what is and what will be.
Where else do those three worlds collide so unencumbered, with such freedom to wrap themselves around each other, intertwine with every aspect of what occupies my brain? The shocking lack of rules in dreams is what makes the mental landscape a high stakes, exciting, yet very dangerous prison exercise yard, with no guards or machine gun turrets to offer protection. There is no other aspect of human life where absolutely anything goes, and we have no control.
Then I woke up and as I was waking up, everything on the stage in my mind scattered, like in a bar fight. It was chaos; as if they knew the light of day would make them disappear, fade to black. Some ran towards each other, tables were overturned; some retreated to the safety provided by my pending consciousness, color turned to sepia which turned to black and white which became open eyes. Eyes open, dream ends, what a delicious reversal of conscious life. I wonder why you can't dream with your eyes open.
And here's where it gets weird for me. I don't know what caused me to wake up. Maybe a random shoulder rotation, who knows. But my first thought was, how could all the details be the same? That was weeks ago.
Then, as happens on rare occasions, upon flipping over, I was able to drift almost immediately back to sleep. And everything and everyone was back in place, like a well-run movie set. With the random way things unfold in a dream, there is clearly no need for a director. I don't even try.
How does the mind do that?
Even today, doctors will almost always finish a study on an aspect of the human brain with a simple qualifier: Of course, we could be wrong. No one really knows.
Sure, most doctors being who they are, won't hesitate to speculate about the brain's functions; its ability to recover from injury, its instantaneous firing of synapses as it sends thoughts to our extremities; pain, elation, sadness, curiosity, confusion. In a matter of milliseconds, the human blanket of emotion and intellect can be thrown over us by our brain and, for the most part, we don't know how.
The field of psychiatry, commonly called 'shrinking', is defined as: a branch of medicine that deals with mental, emotional, or behavioral disorders (itals mine).
Think about that. Why is this incredibly broad field narrowed, by definition, to where and when the brain fucks up? Why not focus on the incredible things the brain accomplishes on a regular basis?
I want to know about why the brain functions at such a level that it's likely we'll NEVER know its full capacity and capability. I'd like to have explained how the brain has become the single greatest creation known to man. A literal magical mystery that we marvel at, maybe because it's difficult to label, to pin down. A doctor can hold a heart in one hand, and a brain in the other. One beats; one sits inert. They are similar in size. They could not be more dissimilar in function.
Forget about dreams, played out when the body is ostensibly at rest. I'd settle for knowing how and why the brain works when I'm awake. Maybe the world of dreams is merely the brain cleaning out its grease trap in the hours it is closed, and we should let it do that. But as we navigate life from an upright position, the brain is clearly at the helm of the human bobsled.
Would it detract from the wonderment of human thought if we know how it came about?
Maybe, when it comes to the brain, ignorance is bliss.
Now that would be ironic.

Got to say - I came upon a distinction made between the brain - receiver of electrical impulses/messages from the body-entire AND the mind. The mind that moves above the level of the brain. That warehouse/storehouse of imagination, insight, understanding, knowledge and ultimately WISDOM. A kaleidoscope that when shaken always a new intricacy is revealed. What of those who suffer a stroke and can suddenly paint? Or play/write music? I marvel at the mind. I take my brain for granted - as the one who instructs my left hip to take up the work of a wonky right knee or who shifts the burden of hearing from left to right ear. The mind? Altogether mysterious.
D'ya think the mind is where the dreams come from?
I have never had such richly eerie dreams as you describe herein. I have repeating dreams - when stressed - of not being able to find my way - onto or off of, into or out of, to or from a place. Once for a period of times I would find my way down deeper and deeper into a building ending up with old stained bricks and cement surrounding me. Brrrrrr. That has long disappeared from the dream repertoire, thank the goodness of the universe.
Another thought provoking piece. I believe you do write out your own questions in search of answers. Do you?
Kindest regards. Going on now. Connie

They have a tea room with chocolates and everything sold in the pharmacy is made by hand with the same recipes that they have used forever. Even Queen Elizabeth has had them design a perfume for her.

Nice start. Write more. Soon.
| Lord Luxion chapter 1 . 1/19/2012
Ok, I like the concept and Saturdays reaction BUT
You really need to sort out your major spelling and grammar errors. House should be a capital, as should be Sunday and Saturday, and Monday, and Will (when referring to the Architects Will).
Also, there is one major error. Saturday was the first denizen CREATED by the Architect, not BORN OF HER AND THE OLD-ONE. She is not Her daughter in the same sense Sunday is Her son. I don't know if this is an intentional deviation but please note this if it is. Also please decapitalise the preview, it looks rubbishy, and it would be nice if the piece had a proper title. You really need to get your work beta'd before you submit it...

Update: Birdville ISD and Automated Phone Calls
Birdville ISD, along with school districts across the nation, has recently been notified of an important change by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) pertaining to the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA). The revised TCPA rules prohibit making any non-emergency call using an automatic telephone dialing system or an artificial or prerecorded voice to a wireless telephone number without the prior express consent of the call recipient. (This includes text messages.)
To comply with the recent ruling, Birdville ISD will only use automated phone calls from your child's campus or the District for attendance alerts or in the case of emergencies.
There are plenty of other ways to stay connected with your child's school and BISD. The District and campuses use the following ways to share news with you:
Please remember, for the remainder of the 2015–16 school year, BISD will only use automated phone calls to communicate emergencies or attendance information.

*From the Department of Internal Medicine II, University of Regensburg, Regensburg, Germany.
Correspondence to: Friedrich C. Blumberg, MD, Department of Internal Medicine II, University of Regensburg, 93042 Regensburg, Germany; e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com
Study objectives: Aerosolized iloprost, a stable prostacyclin analog, improves functional capacity even in patients with pulmonary hypertension who did not show a vigorous hemodynamic response after iloprost inhalation at rest. We therefore speculated that aerosolized iloprost elicits more beneficial effects on pulmonary hemodynamics during exercise than at rest.
Design and setting: A prospective, open, uncontrolled study at a university hospital.
Patients: Sixteen patients with primary or secondary pulmonary hypertension.
Interventions: Right-heart catheterization at rest and during exercise before and after the inhalation iloprost, 14 to 28 μg.
Results: Before iloprost treatment, exercise increased mean (± SD) pulmonary artery pressure (PAPm) from 45 ± 8 to 70 ± 13 mm Hg, cardiac output from 3.7 ± 1.0 to 5.8 ± 2.4 L/min, and pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) from 904 ± 322 to 1,013 ± 432 dyne·s·cm−5 (each p < 0.05). After recovery, iloprost reduced PAPm from 44 ± 8 to 41 ± 6 mm Hg, increased cardiac output from 3.7 ± 1.0 to 4.9 ± 1.4 L/min, and lowered PVR from 902 ± 350 to 636 ± 248 dyne·s·cm−5 (each p < 0.05). During exercise after iloprost, PAPm increased to 57 ± 8 mm Hg, cardiac output to 7.0 ± 3.0 L/min, and PVR to 673 ± 279 dyne·s·cm−5 (each p < 0.05 vs first exercise test). Systemic BP was not altered significantly by iloprost treatment during exercise.
Conclusions: Aerosolized iloprost treatment exerts more favorable effects on pulmonary hemodynamics during exercise than at rest. These findings explain the functional improvement observed in patients with pulmonary hypertension who show only a moderate pulmonary vasodilatory response during iloprost inhalation at rest. Whether these beneficial effects have prognostic significance needs to be elucidated by further study.

MURREE, April 16: The Pakistan People's Party (PPP) is almost out of the political race in NA-50 (Murree and Kotli Sattian), as the election tribunal has disqualified the party's strong candidate, Ghulam Murtaza Satti.
Mr Satti's nomination papers were rejected on the appeal of a local resident, who alleged that as an adviser to the ministry of finance he could not contest the election.
Mr Satti held the office of the adviser to Infrastructure Project Development Fund (IPDF) for five years and allegedly earned millions of rupees.
He had also been widely criticised by local PPP workers for holding the office.
The division of rightwing votes and three potential candidates from the rival Abbasi clan had provided Mr Satti with a strong position in the constituency, as he was the only candidate from NA-50 where the Sattis are in a dominant number.
After the tribunal's decision, Shahid Khaqan Abbasi of the Pakistan Muslim League-N will be more comfortable, especially if the PPP fails to award the ticket to a strong worker.
Instead of a party worker, Murtaza Satti had nominated his wife Fatima Satti as his covering candidate.
However, other PPP workers had also filed their nomination papers. Jabbar Satti, the younger brother of Nisar Satti who was a close associate of Benazir Bhutto, is popular among the PPP workers in the region. Similarly, Nazir Satti, president PPP Murree for last 20 years, is also an option for the party.
The PPP failed to find a suitable candidate for the provincial assembly, and is supporting the PML-Q candidate for the seat.
The rejection of its strong candidate has come as a blow. The party had won both the NA and PA seats in 2002 but lost in 2008 due to lack of contact with the locals.

13 things that do not make sense
Webmaster's Commentary:
Obviously, only a fool would imagine that we know most or even much of all that is knowable. Each generation thinks they have a good view of the world, only to be regarded as superstitious fools by the next.
Number 2, the "Horizon Problem", is one of the many arguments that suggest that the entire theory of the Big Bang is really just religious wishful thinking dressed up to look like science.
Number 6 is part of my own personal history and I am one of those who agrees with Gilbert Levin that his instruments did detect life on Mars.

Lawrence Graham has hired a private client partner from Ogier in a bid to boost its Singapore office.
The firm has taken British Virgin Islands private client head Zac Lucas.
It is the firm's first lateral hire since it launched in the region earlier this year with former senior partner Penny Francis spearheading the move (17 February 2012).
Private capital partner Nick Jacob and corporate partner Geoff Gouriet split their time between London and Singapore.
The addition of Lucas represents an ambition to grow the firm's private client strength internationally.
LG linked up with PK Wong & Associates, a full-service corporate and commercial firm focusing on M&A, dispute resolution and restructuring.
In June, LG announced an alliance with Brazilian firm Motta Fernandes Rocha Advogados. (15 June 2012).
Senior partner Andrew Witts confirmed the hire.

CAIRO (AFP) – President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi visits France and Italy next week in his first European trip since ousting his conservative predecessor and overseeing a crackdown that damaged Egypt's international standing.
Sisi, who was then army chief, overthrew president Mohamed Morsi in July 2013, prompting a wave of violence between Morsi supporters and security forces that drew rebukes from the US and Europe.
But Egypt has come back in from the cold since Sisi's landslide election win earlier this year, boosted by its increasingly central role in combating regional conservative militancy.
The four-day tour, during which Sisi will meet the French and Italian heads of state, is aimed at coordinating a response to fighting between government-backed troops and militias in Libya, as well as boosting economic ties.
"Both sides will look at enhancing cooperation in all sectors," presidential spokesman Alaa Youssef told AFP.
The visit, which begins Monday, comes at a time when Egypt's military is battling its own militant insurgency in the Sinai peninsula, in which scores of policemen and soldiers have died.
A brazen suicide attack last month killed 30 soldiers near the North Sinai capital El-Arish, sparking a state of emergency and leading to a curfew being slapped on several areas.
Sisi met French President Francois Hollande on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in September, and received his foreign and defence ministers in Cairo. The two are expected to discuss a response to a conflict in Libya pitting militias and their allies against a weak but internationally-backed government.
Both Egypt and France argue that the "terrorist threat" in Libya should merit the same attention as the Islamic State group, whose militants have captured parts of Iraq and Syria, winning a pledge of allegiance from militants in the Sinai.
"We will definitely discuss with the French side, and look at ways of helping the Libyan government to restore stability and peace in Libya," Youssef said.
Egypt has denied reports that it facilitated air strikes by the United Arab Emirates, a close ally, against militias in Libya.
"France's top concern in Libya is about the potential of the Libyan south becoming a refuge for terrorists, smugglers and radical conservatives, especially for Mali," where a French-led military operation ousted extremists last year, said the International Crisis Group's Issandr El Amrani.
Sisi is also to meet with the head of France's National Assembly, Claude Bartolone, on Wednesday.
In Italy, which he will visit first, Sisi will meet Pope Francis at the Vatican on Monday, news agency I.Media said, citing diplomatic sources.
It will be the first visit to the Vatican by an Egyptian leader in eight years.

Islamabad, July 26(ANI): Pakistan has acknowledged that Pakistani-American, Faisal Shahzad, who pleaded guilty to a New York bomb plot, had met Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) chief Hakimullah Mehsud.
Shahzad last month pleaded guilty in a New York court to the bomb bid, and warned of more attacks on the United States until it leaves Muslim lands.
"He visited Pakistan seven times and he met Hakimullah Mehsud and also met other people, those so-called leaders of the Taliban," The Dawn quoted Rehman Malik, Pakistani Interior Minister, as saying.
The TTP is based in Pakistan's tribal areas, and has been blamed for some of the deadliest suicide attacks in the country.
It has also claimed responsibility for the May 1 New York bomb plot.
Earlier, a video footage was released by Sky News, which shows Shahzad and Hakimullah shaking hands and hugging each other 'sometime' before the botched Times Square bombing.
Shahzad is also heard warning the US in the video.
"Today, along with the leader of Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan Hakimullah Mehsud and under the command of Amir al-Mumineen Mullah Mohammed Omar Mujahid, may Allah protect him, we are planning to wage an attack on your side, inshallah," Shahzad is heard, as saying.
The 40-minute tape, made months before his failed bomb attack in New York, showed Shahzad talking boldly about his planned martyrdom.
"This attack on the United States will be a revenge attack for all the mujahedeen who have been martyred," he said.
After his confession in the federal court, Shahzad had said that he sought and received five days' training in explosives before returning to the US in February to carry out the bomb plot with funding from the militant group.
He is scheduled to be sentenced on October 5 and faces life in prison. (ANI)

Mariano Rivera will always be know as the "Sandman," but will his theme song continue to play in Yankee Stadium after the 2013 season? Rivera announced to the media Wednesday that he has come to a decision on whether or not he will be returning to the Yankees roster following the 2013 season. But he didn't announce his decision just yet. "Yes, I have," Rivera said when asked if he made a decision. "But again, I will tell you guys when I think it's the right moment." Last June, Rivera underwent surgery for a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee — an injury suffered while shagging fly balls in right field before a game in Kansas City. Rivera missed the latter part of the 2012 season. Rivera, now 43, expects to make a full recovery by Opening Day. After finally making his way back to the mound and throwing 25 pitches Wednesday, Rivera had this to say: "It was wonderful to be out there again."

Last week, I and millions of other Britons wasted two minutes of office time by going to the BBC website and taking its class test. There were five questions, three of which concerned income and assets, one was about the occupations of your friends, and another on how you spend your leisure. Of the seven possible outcomes, I was, absurdly, judged to be the top one – a member of the elite. This will come as news to the neighbours in my street of terraced three-bedroomed houses, with converted front gardens where we park our second-hand cars.
So, I did it again, this time removing from my circle of friends the chief executive with whom I sometimes play golf, making my savings more modest than even they are, and pretending I spent my weekends at jazz clubs and gigs. And I found I had slipped a notch or two down the social scale to "middle-class technical", which, although a classification based on several lies, is probably more accurate.
It is all, of course, rather silly – class turned into a sort of parlour game, which is probably how most of us instinctively view the matter these days. Gone are the times, we think, when you could be asked by a public-school-educated colleague, as I was in 1981 when I first joined the staff of The Observer: "Oh, hello. And where do your people come from?" I was so stunned by this Bertie Woosterish question that I could only mumble that I lived in Croydon, which was not, I suspect, the locating point in the shires he was looking for.
We've outgrown class, haven't we? What with broadcasters no longer having to speak in the strangulated vowels of Edwardian country houses (as in "Ed-waar-dien", and the milk going "orf"), and the clothes you wear no longer announcing your income and background, class is a thing of the past, isn't it?
Well, in the sense of something you are born into and most likely will not escape, it has indeed died. In the sense that people are instantly judged by their background and accent, as they were generations ago, it's "gorn" for good.
It has been replaced by something more fluid and subtle. If you doubt that, take a sizeable step outside your usual social circles. If you were brought up, and still live, in modest circumstances, but like music, then splash out on tickets for Glyndebourne, and see how you react to the braying champagne picnics. If you were brought up in a large detached in the leafy suburbs, or went to public school, spend a week at Butlin's. This is not a matter of snobbery – inverted or otherwise – but of comfort zones. And that, probably, is what the thing we used to think of as class has now become.
Ciabatta or Mother's Pride? Ornamental grasses or bog-standard begonias?
Of such things are social divisions made – or are they? To find your true place in the world, ta ke this new IoS test, carefully crafted by our elite team of techno-labourers - David Randall, Matthew Bell and Simmy Richman
What class are you? Upper, middle, working, chattering, or, maybe, under? Are you a toff, chav, or pleb? A Sloane Ranger, Essex man, or Worcester woman? A yuppie or a dinky? Or do you belong to one of the novelty categories always being dreamed up by an organisation or sociologist in need of a little easy publicity? A twinky (two incomes, nanny and kids), perhaps; a woopie (well-off older person), a snag (sensitive new-age guy), or maybe even a pillock (paltry income lots of kids)? Last week, just to cause further confusion among the gullible, along came the BBC with yet more pigeon holes into which the socially anxious can place themselves.
Time for The Independent on Sunday to bring a little clarity to these matters. The only way to tell what class you are is to take this sophisticated test of social mores and habits devised by our socially varied staff.
