From 1 July 2017 Australian citizen business people will be able to
apply online for the ABTC.
The ABTC gives business people faster and easier entry to economies of the Asia-Pacific region. The ABTC:
If you are not an Australian citizen, you can apply to the agency responsible for the ABTC in your home country. Contact details are available on the
ABTC website.
ABTC reciprocal entry arrangements are available in nearly all APEC economies, including:
Canada and the United States of America are transitional members of the ABTC scheme. Transitional members do not offer reciprocal entry arrangements, but do provide fast track immigration processing at major airports.
You can get an ABTC if:
The Department will consider your business to be engaged in trade or investment between APEC economies if your business:
Alternatively, the Department will consider your business to be engaged in trade or investment activities between APEC economies, if your application provides supporting evidence of the following:
The application form has a checklist that lists the information and supporting documents you must provide with your application. Incomplete applications could be delayed or, in some cases, refused.
In particular, provide:
If you are an Australian citizen, complete
Form 1390 - Application for APEC Business Travel Card (189KB PDF)
If you are not the CEO, CFO - regional or country head, or owner or director of the business, your application must also include a supporting
nomination letter (20KB PDF) from one of those people.
You can lodge your form by post, courier or in person at the APEC Business Travel Card Unit in our
Brisbane office. Electronic or faxed applications are not accepted.
You must
pay a fee when you lodge your application. This fee is not refunded if your application is unsuccessful. The preferred method of payment is by credit card.
There is more
information to help you prepare your application, including advice about certifying and translating documents into English, communicating with us, using a migration agent, authorising another person to receive information from us, and receiving assistance with your application. Also see
Designated list of occupations and professions.
We will check your application to determine whether you meet the criteria for an ABTC. If you meet the criteria, your application will then be sent to all participating APEC economies for consideration.
Each of these economies will assess your application against their own immigration requirements. APEC economies will independently process and issue visa and entry permits linked to your ABTC. Consequently, the period of time required to completely process your application may vary between economies, and is beyond the control of the Department.
The reverse side of your ABTC will feature a list of all the economies that have granted you pre-clearance.
An interim ABTC allows you to nominate up to five priority economies for pre-clearance assessment. An interim ABTC will be issued once the priority economies have granted pre-clearance. The interim ABTC can be used while the remaining economies finalise their pre-clearance processes.
When applying for an ABTC,
complete Part J – Options for receiving an interim card and nominate up to five priority economies for pre-clearance assessment.
Should you wish to travel to one of your nominated priority economies prior to receiving your interim ABTC, you will need to apply for a separate visa for travel.
You can track the progress of your pre-clearance assessments on the
APEC website. Pre-clearance assessments are processed by individual economies and are subject to their respective immigration procedures
If your ABTC is lost or stolen you must advise the Department of the circumstances and provide any supporting information, for example, a police report, an insurance claim, or a statutory declaration.
If you find your ABTC after you have reported it as lost or stolen, please return it to the Department
If your circumstances change, such as your name, passport, contact details or employment, you must advise the Department using the
APEC Business Travel Card Enquiry Form or by emailing
Your ABTC expiry date is aligned with the expiry date of your passport. To make full use of your ABTC's lifetime, you can advise the Department of your new passport details. A new ABTC, which aligns with your new passport, will be issued to you.
To update your passport details please email a copy of your new passport bio-data page to
The ABTC cannot be renewed. A new application and supporting documentation is required to obtain a new ABTC.
It is recommended that ABTC holders submit an application at least two months prior to expiry.
At the most recent APEC Business Mobility Group (BMG), all 21 member economies agreed to implement the extension of validity of the ABTC from three to five years, effective 1 September 2015.
It was agreed that all
applications lodged on or before 31 August 2015 are to be granted an ABTC valid for three years and
applications lodged on or after 1 September 2015 are to be granted an ABTC valid for five years.
To align with these changes, permission to enter member economies will be granted for a five year period. As the ABTC is linked a passport, if an ABTC holder renews their passport within five years of the ABTC issuance date, they must advise the Department of their new passport details to allow a replacement ABTC to be issued for the remainder of the five year period.
Note: A new application is not required for a replacement ABTC to be issued. The ABTC holder is required to contact the Department via email, providing a copy of the bio-data page of their new Australian passport. Once processed a replacement ABTC will be issued.
As there is provision for only one passport to be linked to an ABTC, failure to update the Department's records with the correct passport might result in refusal to enter foreign member economies.

Ocean:Have you checked to see if they need room. The may need more room for the brood. If they have drawn out 7 or 8 of the frames then you need to put a second box on either a deep or a medium.I noticed your front feeder, it appears to be sitting sideways, it is my understanding that the front of the feeder should slip into the entrance of the hive box conseiling the entrance to the feeder. This probally don't reflect on the swarming but it would give them more room on the front and reduce the possibility of robbing.Hope this helpsBarnabus
It looks pretty hot there. I would provide thems some shade, open the entrance all the way also. Do you have a water source, if not provide one.
Looks like a bee beard to me. I don't see any swarm. You'll see them a lot on hot days and especially on hot nights. Try to give them some ventiation at the top and make sure they have room and see if they don't stay in the hive more.

Holiday Inn Knoxville Downtown
525 Henley Street, Knoxville, TN
0.4 km from
It was clean and well lit, the decor was very elegant. That's about it, the rest a collection of minor aggravations coupled with a major safety issue. 1) I had to pay for parking and told to park on top of the garage out in the weather while people who were paying to park for a local sporting event were allowed to park inside the garage. 2) The windows to the room were poorly sealed and even with the thermostat set at 80 the room was miserably cold. When I called the front desk to request another blanket, I was told there was an additional charge. 3) The entrances and sidewalks are poorly lit and the curbs painted a dark gray color. Upon returning from dinner, a short walk up the street and much later in the evening, I nearly broke my ankle when I thought I was stepping off of the sidewalk but was stepping half-way off of the curb, nearly falling in the process (no alcohol was involved). This needs to be addressed as a serious safety issue. 4) If a hotel is going to offer room service, dirty dishes need to be picked up promptly, not left in the hallway outside the room for hours and hours. This was the first and last time I ever stay at this facility and we travel A LOT.
Liked the on-site dining and bar. Site is quite and family friendly. Bathrooms a little cramped in rooms. Needs better space utilization.
The shuttle took us right down to the old city where all the venues are and picked us up, but only till 11pm. Unfortunately the festival ran later than that. In an effort to ease the hangover on the second morning of the festival, we went to the restaurant at about 11 am, and the bar was closed. We asked for a mimosa and a bloody Mary and waited about 15 minutes with no drink. We went outside after we gave up and the server chased us down, offering the drinks on the house, but we were just over it at that point. One time before i stayed here and was having sex with my girlfriend and the manager actually called the room when we were done and asked us to keep it down. Thin walls, apparently. II'm going to the Hilton next time I stay in Knoxville.
Staff was friendly and room was cosy. Charged for parking
Very clean, wonderful staff, excellent location to the downtown activities. The pool was smaller than I would have expected from such a nice hotel. There was no hot tub or sauna.
Parking was confusing.
It was clean and decent value for the money. There weren't enough parking spots when we were turning down for the night, so we parked in the garage on the curb. If we pay $10/night, we'd like to be assured an actual parking spot.
Nothing special about this place except the price. The location was not as close to our destination as we were told. Staff always seemed busy chatting with each other. Entrance ramp and deck area difficult. Way over priced for what you get. No place to walk dogs.
I booked the room the day of at 1125PM planning to arrive at 3 AM. The first thing the staff told me was that I'd probably be charged again bc they wipe the previous day's reservations at 2AM. They kept saying if I didn't use your website and booked through them then it wouldn't be an issue but they made sure to be clear that using the third party site was not the way to do it. Thankfully I wasn't charged twice but please indicate this timing issue and the need to call if you'll be arriving late on your website so people are aware. It was a very stressful first encounter and I was unsure if they'd charge me again until the morning.
Love the lobby! It's luxurious and makes the guest feel more sophisticated. The bathrooms were also top notch. The toilet was very loud when it flushed not allowing for quick middle of the night restroom trips without disturbing your significant other. The hotel room doors need hydraulics. Other guests slammed the doors and it was VERY loud. I understand people are having a good one but it should be quiet after a certain point. Hydraulics on the doors would fix that!

As families throughout the country gather today to celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday, as its name implies, it is a time to give thanks for the blessings. For children going through cancer treatment at the University of Minnesota's Amplatz Children's Hospital, there isn't always a lot to be thankful for aside from being given another day on this earth.
Since joining the Vikings, center John Sullivan has had a special bond with the children who battle cancer at the Amplatz Hospital. Some recover. Some don't. The names and faces change, but the scourge of childhood cancer remains consistent. On Tuesday, Sullivan and some of his teammates made an annual pre-Thanksgiving pilgrimage to Amplatz to visit the children that will be spending this holiday in a hospital instead of being surrounded by family at home and enjoying the holiday.
Sullivan said that the annual visit to the kids brings joy to them, but it gives as much back to the players involved as it does to the children and their families that are excited to see some of their Vikings heroes.
"We definitely get a lot out of it as well," Sullivan said. "It feels good to help out and brighten a kid's day, especially when they're facing such tough circumstances. It's a never-ending problem and we feel like we've got to be there to support them all the time. It's what we need to do."
Among those who joined Sullivan were fellow offensive tackles Matt Kalil and Troy Kropog – one a blue-chip first-round draft pick and the other a practice squad tackle waiting for his chance to shine as a Viking. It wasn't a coincidence that Sullivan brought some of his younger, impressionable teammates to make the visit to Amplatz. He knew it would open their eyes to the plight of these children and their families and the message came through loud and clear.
"I've never done anything like that, so I didn't know what to expect," Kalil said. "It's definitely heart-filling when you see these kids and everything they're going through. At times, you think your life is tough, but then you see these kids fighting cancer or other diseases and it changes your perspective. Just to be able to go in there and put a smile on their faces and make their day and keep fighting, that was pretty cool. It's probably one of the best experiences I've ever had."
Kropog got much the same slap of reality when viewing the individual battles being fought by children whose bodies have betrayed them. If anyone needs a smile, it's a little one fighting an adult disease. Any comfort their Vikings heroes could give them was welcomed with open arms – by the patients and the players alike.
"It's a great experience for us as much as it is for the kids," Kropog said. "They're not going to have a great Thanksgiving – spending it in the hospital away from their friends and a lot of their families. A lot of these kids are from North Dakota and South Dakota. It's a haul just to get here. I think it's nice to give them something to look forward to, something to think about other than being stuck in a hospital. It feels good and is very heartwarming to be able to give that good feeling to them. And it's good for us because it's nice being able to give back."
For those who had never seen an NFL player up close and personal, they can be a bit daunting … to an adult, much less a small child. Most people don't see 300-pound men that are in shape. It can be a bit intimidating, but Sullivan said that they try to come off as really big kids that are there to be friends, not giants roaming the halls of the hospital.
"I think I'd be kind of scared of some of us if I were a little kid," Sullivan said. "We try to do things the right way. You make observations on what you think their interests are based on what you see in the room. You avoid certain topics. Everybody gets prepped on that before we go in the room. We know how to handle it. Most of the times, the parents' reaction is so positive, I think that helps. These kids have been through so much, I don't think seeing big guys come into their room phases them too much."
These holiday visits give the children, their parents and their siblings moments that they will cherish and carry with them. But at the same time the impact of those visits is just as strong and equally burned in the memories of the players who make the altruistic memories. They're giving back some of the love that their fans have shown toward them.
"It makes you feel a lot better being able to help in some small way going into the community," Kalil said. "People have given so much supporting our team and watching our games, the effect that the Vikings can have because everyone loves us so much is great. To be able to put smiles on the faces of those kids and their families was very cool for us."
Anyone who has made one of these hospital visits comes away permanently changed for the better. To witness the fighting spirit of the young patients brings a tear to the eye and a recognition that the problems most of us face on a daily basis pale in comparison to what these families are going through during the holiday season.
"Personally, I feel for these kids," Kropog said. "It helps me appreciate the things that I have that sometimes I take for granted. In everyday life, we can get caught up thinking about the things we don't have. When you see the struggles that these kids are going through so early in life, you really give thanks for what you have."
Sullivan intends to continue the strong relationship he has forged with Amplatz and also plans to continue bringing young teammates along with him to show them what dozens of his teammates have seen over the years. Giving back is one thing. Paying it forward is another and Sullivan wants to make sure that young cancer patients know they have some pretty big guys in their corner and watching their back.
"It's something I'm proud to be associated with," Sullivan said. "If you can bring a smile to a kid's face that has gone through as much as these kids have, the reward you get is huge. It's something I love doing because it's always great to help these kids and their families and it makes you realize that Thanksgiving is about recognizing the things in your life that you're thankful for."

Garrett Morrison, 3w Yak sale.
I am putting my 3W 37% Yak 54 up for sale. This bird only has about 25 flights and is loaded!! It's fully airbrushed in the "Desert" scheme. The wing turns into a beautiful American Flag and I really cant say how awesome it looks in the air and even better on the ground. You heard that right, this is a plane that looks better the closer you get!! Because this plane has 25 flights there could be a nick here or there but I don't think anything stands out. I'm only saying this to be fair because once you fire up that fire breathing 3w 157 CS twin spark its going to start throwing anything around. I am willing to ship this plane anywhere in the world! But the buyer is responsible for all shipping and crating. Also the plane will not leave my hands until the funds have cleared in the bank. If you have any question please email me off line or contact me via PM and we can start talking. Only serious buyers please. Here is a list of the products; there is more than I can really list.
Competition Version Fully airbrushed 3W/QQ Yak 54
Engine: 25 flights, 3W 157 CS twin spark.
Mufflers: PeFa Canisters, 3W headers, exhaust couplers, 3w pipe hangers ect.
Futaba Servo's: 6x 9152 "ail", 8x 9351 "rud,ele",1x 9650 throt.
4x equalizer 3d's from Smart fly.
4x SWB 1.5" servo arms on elevator.
SWB self-adjusting rudder tray. 4-servo setup.
Batteries: 2x 4,800mah, 2x 2,400mah, Fromeco li-ion packs.
Fromeco 2x adjustable regulators.
4x 22 awg charge jack/switch
3w Smoke pump ready to pump.
Litepilots 38% pilot bust
3w Dash panel
3w Carbon tailwheel
Removable rudder
Paragon Aero fuel dot for smoke
I'm sure there are other items I have not listed. This plane is defiantly the cream of the crop when it comes to quality and flying. All the products in this aircraft are top notch and nothing was considered in the build of this plane if it was not the best of quality. I'm asking $8,200 ready to fly minus receivers and prop. I did not run a spinner on this plane. If you have any questions or need additional pictures please let me know and I can send them out. If your interested in this plane minus servo or radio gear let me know and I can adjust the price.

|Healthy eating is an important factor in cancer recovery. And, healthy eating can go a long way toward cancer prevention. There are lots of nutritious, delicious foods that provide dynamic resources for your body to achieve peak physical conditioning.
Fruits and vegetables are packed with phytochemicals, chemical compounds that have powerful disease-fighting capabilities. Many recent studies have demonstrated that phytochemicals provide significant reductions in the risk of developing cancer and heart disease.
These wonder nutrients are found in broccoli, spinach, cauliflower, kale, and tomatoes. Tomatoes contain the important phytochemical, lycopene. In clinical trials, lycopene has demonstrated effective anti-prostate cancer activity and also improved cardiovascular blood flow.
Blueberries, cranberries, and apples are all rich in phytonutrients. Phytonutrients found in blueberries help prevent cancer and also help reduce inflammation.

Would you like an ACU student midwife to share your journey with you in Melbourne?
I am a first year midwifery student at ACU in Melbourne and have a background in herbal medicine and nutrition consultation. I am passionate about supporting women through pregnancy and birth so they may reflect on the experience with pride and a sense of achievement. Additionally, I am enrolled in The International College of Spiritual Midwifery, have attended calm birth classes and am a mother to one 7 year old boy.
As part of my degree I am asked to provide a Continuity of Care experience by following a woman's journey through pregnancy, birth and the post natal period. My role is to be 'with woman', this is a caring and sharing relationship that is based on a women's personal birth choices. I can work with all birth models and as a student I am supported by a Registered Midwife employed by the University. Ideally I would attend 2 antenatal appointments and would be very pleased to attend the birth if invited to do so. I would also maintain contact for 4-6 weeks after birth if invited to do so.
The Continuity of care experience is a beautiful program for building relationships and sharing knowledge and has been shown in studies to enhance outcomes in labour and birth. The program is free and a woman can withdraw at any time without question.
I look forward to hearing from you and providing further information.

Preservationists Still Looking to Save Astrodome
Still no demolition plan for the Astrodome as Harris County Commissioners Court continues to weigh it's options.
Several audience members addressed commissioners about this month's failed bond proposal during Tuesday's meeting. Judge Ed Emmett took some of the blame, and tried to clear up any confusion.
"Number one it was not a convention center, that was not the plan," Emmett told attendees. "The media kept saying that, but it was never designed to be a convention center."
"Number two, there's not $30 million owed on it anymore," he said.
Meanwhile, groups continue to pitch their ideas for re-purposing the stadium.
"My plea here today is that none of us becomes discouraged, resigned or impatient, and that we all keep trying. Don't throw in the 'Save the Astrodome' towel just yet," said Chris Alexander with the group "Astrodome Tomorrow."
Meantime, Maverick Welsh with the city of Houston's historical commission wants to give the stadium landmark status.
"Really it is much more symbolic, because the county could still demolish the building should they choose, whether the city declares it a landmark or not," Welsh tells KTRH News.
"We're a commission created by City Council to deal with all the historical landmarks and districts throughout the city, but the council and mayor have final say on anything we would do," he says.
Either way, the landmark status would only put a 90-day hold on any demolition.

Cheap conditioner
So i found this cheap conditioner in my local store.
The ingredients are: Aqua, Cetyl Alcohol, Cetrimonim Chloride, Parfum, Citric Acid, Linalool, Cl 19140
I was really excited when i first found it because the ingredients seem fine to me. No silicones and i also don't see anything ''bad''. I am a college student and i don't have money to spent on expensive curly hair products.
So what do you think? Can i use it for co-wash? Will it moisturise enough my hair??
I don't see anything bad in it either. Not sure if it's moisturizing or not.
Maybe some of our chemists will chime in.
Cetyl alcohol is actually a good moisturizing alcohol for the hair. I think you could use it to wash with but I would follow with more moisture if it feels like your hair still needs it. FWIW I always follow a co wash with a stronger condish.

More test scores are in for the Houston Independent School District. The Stanford Ten compares how Houston students are doing compared to the rest of the country. Houston Public Radio's Capella Tucker reports.
Grades one through eleven take the Stanford 10 test. Nearly all grade levels score at least the 50th percentile, with fourth grade scoring the highest at the 59th percentile. The lowest was ninth grade at the 49-th percentile. Spanish speaking students in grades one through eight take the Aprenda. The scores were even better with second graders scoring in the 82nd percentile. Superintendent Abe Saavedra says the scores are even better considering the students background.
"These results are especially important because HISD is one of the largest school districts in America and we have a much larger percentage of students living in poverty than the national average. Actually, 82 percent of our students in HISD are considered to be economically disadvantaged while only 30 percent of the national average is considered to be in that category."
Saavedra says the district also learns from the test. He says math and science are two areas of difficulty. Saavedra says the greatest challenge is educating high school students. Capella Tucker, Houston Public Radio News.

|Patriots Look Poised For Another Super Bowl Run
|Bruins Trade For Drew Stafford
|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
The Red Sox may have missed on the big fish this offseason in Mark Teixeira, A.J. Burnett, CC Sabathia, and Derek Lowe and saw the Yankees sign the first three, however, they have not stopped bringing in veterans to fill holes in the roster. They signed Brad Penny to bolster the rotation and Josh Bard to help fill the catching void.
Now, they have signed Rhode Island native Rocco Baldelli and appear on the brink of signing John Smoltz. While the Yanks were writing long-term, long-dollar contracts, the Sox offers have all been short, affordable and incentive-laden deals.
Baldelli had been a Rays staple since breaking into the majors and showed tremendous talent as an all-around hitter and good defensive centerfielder with speed. Unfortunately, it seems he would suffer an injury during every season and miss significant time. Last season, he was almost forced into retirement until it was discovered that the mysterious condition plaguing him was a rare mitochondrial disorder, fatiguing him easily. In a part-time role with the Rays, he contributed to the World Series run and looks to have a similar role with the Red Sox.
He will likely be a reserve outfielder and part time designated hitter with the Sox, giving regulars days off as Terry Francona likes to make sure everyone gets their proper rest. With Coco Crisp having been traded to Kansas City and J.D. Drew almost assured of missing some time, his presence as a veteran outfielder on the bench could be a key.
Smoltz is a signing similar to Bartolo Colon's last season, bringing in a former Cy Young winner in a risk-reward situation. Colon's was a non-guaranteed minor league deal, whereas Smoltz' is a major league, incentive-based contract. Smoltz is rehabilitating from shoulder surgery, stemming from an injury which casued him to miss virtually all of 2008, but word has it he is progressing very well though he will not be ready for the beginning of the season.
What Smoltz will be is a sixth starter should one of the current members of the rotation be ineffective or suffer an injury of their own. Tim Wakefield and Brad Penny have had injury concerns of their own in recent years and Josh Beckett has always been dinged up with minor injuries as well.
For the dollars invested in these players, as well as the deal crafted for Penny, the Red Sox are ensuring that they will only pay for the performance these guys can deliver. If these gambles do not produce on the field, the Red Sox will be rid of them in short time and will not lose much of an investment. Conversely, for the Yankees, A.J. Burnett, another player with a history of injury concerns, could blow $80 million over the course of a number of years. Also, none of the Sox signees are expected to produce at a high level for the team to succeed; each of them provides depth behind the key cogs in the Red Sox machine.

Sorry but it is true.
You may think you're right…but I remember when the Yankees traded for Randy Johnson and they were set to win 115 games and the Big Unit would win 30. That didn't come close to happening. They'll score a lot of runs…probably 900 or so, but that wasnt their problem last year. They had a huge problem with pitching. CC is a big asset at the top of the rotation, but AJ Burnett is close to an automatic injury. After that they have Chein-Ming Wang coming off an injury, Joba Chamberlain (who's in between a SP and a closer)…and Phil Hughes, who may not be ready for the big time yet.
On paper, the Yankees are a 100-win team again…but that also means that everyone performs exactly as they should and stay healthy. Tex is a notoriously slow starter, so he may fall out of favor at first with new yorkers. AJ Burnett will probably get injured..and what could they expect out of Jorge Posada this year? Can he even catch? and what of Hideki Matsui?
Here are the guarantees for the Yanks:
CC Sabathia
Mariano Rivera
Derek Jeter
Alex Rodriguez
Mark Teixeira
So…a little luck and a lot of health, and the Yankees will be in first place.
Remember, the Sox had a TON of injury problems last year and still won 95 games. If they are healthy most of the year (except for JD Drew), you'd think they can win at least that amount again…
CC might be an injury concern as well with all the innings on his arm. I think he has the heft to be able to take the wear and tear, but he throws hard and a lot. You're right on with everything else. The Yankees needed to make those moves to fix their rotation and its still only Wang, CC, and Burnett when healthy. Hughes, Kennedy, etc aren't much to speak of.

CANADA FX DEBT-C$ buoyed by retail sales, U.S. budget hopes
* C$ ends at C$0.9873 vs US$, or $1.0129 * Canada October retail sales stronger than expected * Bond prices little changed across curve By Claire Sibonney TORONTO, Dec 20 (Reuters) - Canada's currency perked up against the U.S. dollar on Thursday after two days of losses, lifted by stronger-than-expected domestic retail sales and some optimism that U.S. politicians would keep working to break the federal budget logjam. Canadian retail sales in October jumped by a much higher-than-forecast 0.7 percent from September to hit a record, but some analysts said the figures would not do much to boost recent sluggish economic growth. "The very strong retail sales this morning in Canada has probably been supporting the Canadian dollar, but I don't think it's something that's sustainable," said Charles St-Arnaud, Canadian economist and currency strategist in New York. "The Canadian dollar is stronger than what it should be given where commodity prices are," he said. St-Arnaud also noted that the differential between the price at which Canadian producers are selling their oil and the price at which Canadian refiners have to import oil is close to a record high around $50 a barrel. Investors clung to hope for a U.S. budget agreement after Republican House Speaker John Boehner pledged to keep working on a solution to the "fiscal cliff", while he continued to criticize President Barack Obama's approach to budget talks. The Canadian dollar ended the North American session at C$0.9873 versus the U.S. dollar, or $1.0129, stronger than Wednesday's finish at C$0.9881, or $1.0120. "As we get closer to this 'fiscal cliff,' the market is even more singularly focused on that issue," said Greg Moore, FX strategist at TD Securities, referring to the U.S. talks to avert steep tax hikes and spending cuts that threaten recession and that are due to take effect automatically in January. Boehner's "Plan B" to limit income-tax increases to the wealthiest sliver of the population appeared likely to pass the House on Thursday evening after it narrowly cleared a procedural hurdle in the afternoon. On Wednesday, Obama threatened to veto the Republican measure. Moore noted near-term U.S. dollar resistance versus Canada around C$0.9900 and support around C$0.9825-30. The market barely reacted to a round of strong U.S. data, including on gross domestic product growth and housing. Canadian government bond prices were little changed across the curve. The two-year bond was up 2 Canadian cents, yielding 1.133 percent, while the benchmark 10-year bond lost 4 Canadian cents to yield 1.849 percent.

I carry a M&P 40 and a snub 38 in my pocket with a speed strip. I figure if there is a serious malfunction I can just grab the other one. Another reason is there have been times when shady characters have approached me and rather than put my hand on a full sized M&P behind my back while lifting my shirt, I just put my hand in my pocket and grip the 38, no one knows. Also, my wife has her concealed carry but doesn't carry as often as I do. I figure I can pass one of them to her in a dire situation and now there are two of us. Sometimes I just run to the store with just one though. I never leave the house without at least one. Just like a seatbelt.
If you want to carry 9 weapons I really don't care, just be responsible and you're good with me.

Yes, I was one of the few naïve ones who thought that as I transitioned from consulting to student life, I was going to have a lot of time on my hands. Oh how wrong I was!
Things are busy! But in a good way. During undergrad, the majority of my time was probably taken up by classes and I certainly spent a ton of time in the computer lab – as a computer science major, the computer lab was, sadly, my second home.

I bought my 2013 Crystal Black Silica WRX Sedan (basic model w/subaru short shifter) on 9/21/2012!
Though I have read a lot it was not always clear on what mods would do what to the car's performance.
Very few folks seemed to have a stock dyno pull as an example. I hope these posts help others enjoy their WRX!
My updates will start slow but overtime my posts should really help document how various mods can really improve the cars performance.
Before I bought my car I had very little car modification experience.
I had done an oil change on a car before and some simple stereo stuff..but not much else...
After looking at various 2013 cars, I really could not think of not getting a Subaru WRX or STI.
My only real thought was should I get a WRX or STI???
I got a WRX for a few reasons...looking back it's funny and I was a bit lucky!
#1 Cost
#2 Cost
#3 0 to 60 faster than a stock STI and amazing for the price!
#4 Some car and driver article about an Intake, Exhaust and a tune (I had no idea what that was at the time) that would beat a stock STI and still be cheaper.

Kid Expelled Over Mom's Post
A 4-year-old boy has been kicked out of school over his mom's negative Facebook post.
Ashley Habat went to Facebook to vent about the Sonshine Christian Academy where her son attended preschool (she even tagged them in the post) and the school was not exactly pleased about this.
Habit shared her frustration about the school's picture day policy by posting on her timeline: "Why is it that every single day there is something new I dislike about Will's School? Are my standards really too high or are people working in the education field really just that ignorant."
The school then called her in and said that her family wasn't a good fit for the school and that her 4-year-old was being expelled.
Sonshine Christian Academy won't comment publicly on the issue, but we have a feeling the family won't be invited back.(New 4 Jax)

The presence of Romas in many European nations invariably arouses the ire of right wing fanatics and bigots who have never abandoned Nazi-style approaches to dealing with people who are different from themselves. A gathering of the neo-Nazi Czech Workers Party nearly turned into a massacre of Romas due to efforts of police. About 500 thugs gathered in the town of Litvinovfor a march when they suddenly made a turn and headed for the Roma section of the community. Mob members were armed with Molotov cocktails, machetes and pitch forks which they intended to use against innocent people but were prevented due to the presence of about 1,000 police. In the melee about 300 Roma men also were present ready to defend their community against mob violence.
The gangsters who term themselves a "worker's party," threw flaming bottles and attacked police who stood in their way of carrying out violence. A police spokesperson said, "we discovered weapons–sticks, guns, pitchforks, machetes and other things in the cars of extremists and also Roma people." A growing tragedy in Europe is the rising hatred against Romas. After all, they are a minority and have some differences.

HP Bias: The Death of Suleima
There are several biased things here to note.
1. The headline claims that Israeli soldiers "shot" a teenager, which they did, after he held a fake gun to a soldier's head at a checkpoint. Why would such context be left out of the headline? Did the Huffington Post intend to depict the death of this teenager as completely the fault of the mean Israeli soldiers? Undoubtedly! In fact, the mention of a fake gun comes in the FIFTH paragraph, after paragraphs about life in Hebron and the significance of the Tomb of the Patriarchs.
2. The picture choice. As always, when Palestinians are hurt and killed, their grieving families or their funeral is shown, as in this picture above. When Israelis are hurt and killed, generic meaningless pictures are used, such as the police tape for the Bulgaria bus bombing, soldiers standing around when a soldier was killed, a burning car and an Israeli flag for the attack on Israeli diplomats, newspapers for Ilan Grapel's kidnapping, a damaged school bus for the death of Daniel Viflic, and the classic example of a soldier standing on a street corner when the entire Fogel family was slaughtered in their home.
3. The naming of the victim in the headline. The Huffington Post publishes the dead teenager's full name, Mohammed Suleima, something they did not do for Daniel Viflic, the Fogel family, or Christine Logan. Can anyone explain why Suleima's name deserved to be the headline, but not those other people? But lest you think the Huffington Post only publishes the full names of Palestinians, don't worry, they also used the full name of Vittorio Arrigoni, Palestinian terror supporter, when he was kidnapped and killed by Islamic Jihad.
In other places that this AP article was covered, such as NPR and Yahoo News, the headline simply read "Israeli Soldiers Clash with Palestinian Protesters". No mention of a shot teenager in the headline, no funeral picture.
The Huffington Post, doing its part to rewrite the facts to make the Palestinians look as good as possible. Incredible bias, which should have no place in a mainstream newspaper.

Fantastic catch, guys, and beautifully covered. Oh, how I would love to see some enterprising reporter confront Arianna over this incredible bias and incitement. Please forward this on to all the media. I will do my part.ReplyDelete
I agree with HuffWatcher1. I just saw a tweet claiming that the boy was deaf. What that has to do with what he did is - absolutely nothing that relates to Israel. Apart from their other iniquities Israel's enemies have a history of abusing the disabled.ReplyDelete

Huffington Post Monitor, along with HuffWatch are blogs that should be forwarded to all the media EVERY SINGLE DAY, until they finally take notice and go public with the bias, hatred,ReplyDelete
and incitement toward Jews everywhere.
Hey guys we've started to employ a slight comment policy. We used to have completely open comments but then people abused it. So our comment policy is such: No obvious trolling or spamming. And be warned: unlike the Huffington Post we actually enforce our comment policy.

Today has to be one of the worst Mondays of the year. Most of you have been off since Thursday, you've likely taken significant steps backward in your family life after insulting an in-law and the fridge smelled a little too much like old cranberries when you were pulling out a bottle of water this morning.
The morning felt all the more troubling for me since Leslie Nielsen died last night at 84. Sad to see him go, he was one of the greatest comedic actors of all time. Nobody played the fool better.
So, to cheer you up, block your mother-in-law's phone number for the next eight minutes and enjoy the best moments of the Naked Gun Trilogy.
RIP Enrico Pollazzo, now time for some Breakfast...
--- Feeling better this Monday will only come from reading more about the Bearcats domination of Dayton.
There have been fewer more impressive performances against a respected program than the one we witnessed on Saturday night. Prior to the game there were reasons for cautious optimism. After Saturday, you can drop the cautious. You saw a glimpse of what this team can be. Playing relentless defense will be their calling card and if they can hit shots -- they can beat anybody.
That will be the question. On Saturday, they did. The Bearcats put a signifcant amount of pressure on themselves surrounding this game and rose up to play one of the gems of the Mick Cronin era. And all of it with Yancy Gates barely being a factor with foul trouble.
--- My new super-intern from Ohio U. Will Frasure covered for me while I was flying the friendly skies back from East Hartford. Here's his take on the resounding statement win.
--- The always active Gary P. left a comment that called Dayton another cupcake as part of the cupcake conference schedule.
Sure, the non-conference slate is pretty weak. It continues with Wright State on Wednesday, who did push Richmond (66-61 L) a day before the Spiders upended Purdue, 65-54.
Oklahoma doesn't strike fear into anybody and they are the most recognizable name of those remaining not named Xavier.
But, I wouldn't call Dayton a cupcake. I can't tell you what happened to the Flyers on Saturday. Tom Archdeacon points out the explanations are they weren't giving the same effort as UC. Doug Harris writes about UD's poor practices. And it's always easy to blame 20 percent shooting.
This Dayton team drove down I-75 with a highly regarded freshman point guard and veteran cast surrounding him -- including Chris Wright, who will likely be an NBA Draft pick next year.
Hardly a cupcake. Plus, it would have been worth talking about even if UC beat a directional school with the convincing style of the 68-34 victory.
The non-confernce portion leaves a bit to be desired, but the confidence that comes from a win like this can go a long way. And when you play in the Big East, nobody will be doubting your schedule when they scan the resume in March.
--- With a win at Oklahoma and taking caring of business against teams the Bearcats will be heavily favored to beat could put them at 12-0 entering Big East play.
That still won't mean much. The Big East -- doubted all offeseason -- is owning the early portions of the year and appears to be as brutal as always.
As Cronin said last week, "our fate will be decided in the Big East."
Mike DeCourcy was at US Bank Arena and wrote about UC stacking up in Big East play. Mike points out the league is 71-17 against outside opponents, has the highest strength of schedule and No. 1 conference in RPI.
Even Notre Dame is 7-0 after a win against Wisconsin.
--- Paul Daugherty discusses the possibility the Bearcats may actually be pretty good thanks to their depth.
I'd imagine a few heads turned at that final score. I'll be interested to see the crowd at Fifth Third on Wednesday against Wright State. The attendance hovered around 4k the first four games. Will there be a few more people on the bandwagon now?
Of course, the national disrespect will likely continue until BE play.
--- Cronin talked about the Red and Black team (starters/backups) don't always have the same result. Many days the backups come away with the win. Ten players had double-digit minutes on Saturday.
Hard to argue that type of defensive effort doesn't at least in some way stem from how fresh the guys are out there. It's the advantage to having so many interchangable parts.
"There's many ays where the red team beats the black team," Cronin said. "You don't see that at a lot of practices. In the past, I've had to break team's up to up the competitiveness and cohesiveness. The black team, they don't usually dominate practice. Usually, if you do that, your starters will crush the other team, and our red team actually wins. It's good because, like I've told (Sean) Kilpatrick, I can sub you in on the black team, but you can become a scorer and leader for the red team. That's really helped us. Guys are buying into their roles and are coming along well mentally."
--- Here's the News-Record gamer with Patrick Strang's photos on the right. How about those 1960 throwbacks? Nice touch. After the way they played in them, I am thinking bringing those guys back for a Big East blockbuster would be a smart idea.
--- How about Darnell Wilks? He'd been very quiet through the first four games, but made every hustle play imaginable in the win.
It didn't go unnoticed by Cronin, despite Wilks not connecting on a field goal.
"I don't know if Darnell's played a better game as a Bearcat," Cronin said. "He might not understand what I mean by that, but his defense on Chris Wright and his execution on switching really rattled him. He kept some balls alive and used his athleticism well. It takes time to get guys to understand that that's how they can be effective. Making shots can be one way, but that's not the only way. You can always be aggressive and use your athleticism, and he used his athleticism tonight."
Wilks finished with six rebounds, five assists, a steal and perfect 4-of-4 shooting from the FT line.
--- Ibrahima Thomas was assisted to the locker room during the game. Thomas will be fine. Cronin said after the game it was only cramps.
--- The big news surfacing on Monday was that TCU will join the Big East as an all sports member in 2012-2013. Great news for the Big East and the future of a Big East Network with yet another nice market in the mix.
As for college hoops, I'm sure everyone is on pins and needles to see the contentious TCU-Seton Hall battles. Also, the scheduling will only become tougher. But without TCU, there was a chance there would be no BE at all, so any complaints should probably be muzzled.
--- As for UC football in Hartford, unfortunately, there's not much left to say. Here was my postgame column assessing the aftermath of the official elimination from bowl contention.
--- Vidal Hazelton made the trip, practiced in warmups and was dressed all game. He did not play. The fact he was even cleared to play just 84 days since his ACL injury is one of the best stories of the year.
Jones said he is erring on the side of caution and Hazelton may play a few snaps against Pittsburgh.
--- The Pittsburgh game will be a noon kickoff for Senior Day at Nippert. The Panthers will have something to play for. If they win and UConn and WVU lose, then they would be the Big East BCS representative at 7-5. That sentence really describes the entire Big East 2010 season.
--- Armon Binns became the eighth WR in UC history to surpass 1,000 yards in a season. Mardy Gilyard did it last season.
--- The volleyball team learned its fate for the NCAA tournament on Sunday. UC (29-5) will be heading to University of Illinois for an opening round match against Western Kentucky (27-5) on Friday. If they win, they will face the winner of Austin Peay and Illinois.
Richard Skinner put together a story for the Enquirer.
--- How about some randomness.....
--- I'm going to subsitute in a bowling league tonight, I'm sure it will go something like this.
--- Not sure how this is happening in Alaska and not Jersey.
--- The Daily Show sings, a lot. Here's a compilation. The Jon Stewart-choir song to Bernie Madoff may be the single greatest moment in the history of the show.
--- Can somebody get Kanye West some new material? Maybe he can start a beef with Justin Bieber.
--- The golf course is a sanctuary for old men. If you enter it and disturb the piece, you will invoke rage. And sneaky quickness.
--- I love the concept of Facebook Flash mobs. But I think I would be walk out midway through this one....right after I bought two Beef N Cheddars from Arby's.

Defeat for Affirmative Action
A decades-old, popular program in which colleges prepare minority high school students for journalism degrees and careers in the field will no longer focus exclusively on minority students.
The Center for Individual Rights, a group that opposes affirmative action, on Wednesday announced an agreement with the Dow Jones News Foundation, which sponsored the program, and Virginia Commonwealth University, one of the sites for the program. Under the agreement, all 27 programs -- which in the past have focused on minority students -- will be opened to white students. The center sued Dow Jones and the university last year on behalf of a 15-year-old white student who was rejected from the program at Virginia Commonwealth.
Dow Jones started the program in the 1960s, as part of an effort to attract more minority students to journalism. Colleges apply to be one of the host sites and high school students travel to the sites in the summer for journalism training. Participants in the program have praised its track record in helping to diversify newsrooms all over the country -- and participants typically receive scholarships to help them attend college. Current participants include Kent State and New York Universities, San Antonio College, and the Universities of Arizona and Kentucky. Until the settlement, the program was called the High School Journalism Workshops for Minorities. (The words "for Minorities" will now be dropped.)
According to the Center for Individual Rights, it became involved in the case after Emily Smith, from Chesterfield County, Va., applied for the Virginia Commonwealth program and was accepted. A few days after she was accepted, Virginia Commonwealth called her and asked her race. When she indicated that she was white, she was told that she "couldn't come." As part of the settlement, Virginia Commonwealth has promised to admit Smith to its program for 2007 and to pay her $25,000 in legal expenses. A statement from the university said that the settlement did not involve an admission of wrongdoing, that the agreement was consistent with the institution's "race-neutral admissions policies" and its commitment to "inclusiveness in all of its programs."
The lawsuit filed by the Center for Individual Rights argued that the program's previous restrictions violated the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution by excluding white students.
Terrence Pell, president of the center, said that he was surprised that Dow Jones had operated these programs for so long without a legal challenge. To the extent that there are similar programs operating at other colleges in other fields, Pell said that the center would go after them as well. "I think there are pockets of race-exclusive programs. As we learn about them and people want to challenge them, we will file suits," he said. "Our lawsuit was kind of a wake-up call not just to Dow Jones, but to school officials generally about other kinds of programs that might be operating under the radar screen."
Dow Jones officials did not answer calls on Wednesday.
But the director of a program that has to change as a result of the settlement said she was disappointed and that the CIR lawsuit would hurt efforts to diversify journalism education and journalism.
"It's very disappointing because we still have such a dearth of people of color in the industry," said Cristina Azocar, director of the Center for the Integration and Improvement of Journalism, at San Francisco State University. Azocar said that her summer program has always been open to low-income white students, as well as minority students, but she fears that under the new rules, too many slots will go to those who don't need the program.
"It's much easier to get well-off kids to apply for these. The more advantaged you are, the more likely you apply for these, and get in," she said. "There are now going to be a lot of spaces going to undeserving students -- students who have other opportunities."
Azocar is also on the board of the Native American Journalists Association, which has also received Dow Jones funds for a summer program, in that case for Native American students. Dow Jones has told the association it must open up its program as well. Given how few programs reach out to Native American students who want to be journalists, she asked what would be gained by adding white students.
"There has always been affirmative action for white people in this country," she said. "It's really sad that they fail to understand that the reason they are so prominent is because of those affirmative action policies, legacy admissions policies, getting ahead because of things like who you know. We never had that access," she said. "We still have such low numbers. What are they afraid of? Are they afraid that they aren't going to get those jobs?"
Pell said that while certain programs may favor certain groups, they are not race-exclusive. He noted that the children of minority alumni benefit from legacy admissions. "I'm not aware of any program anywhere in the country that is run as a whites-only program."
But William B. Harvey, president of the National Association of Diversity Officers in Higher Education and vice president and chief officer for diversity and equity of the University of Virginia, questioned that logic. "Isn't that a bit disingenuous on its face? All we have to do is look at the social history of this country and this particular field. No one is saying that there are programs today only for white students, but our newspapers are overwhelmingly white. Are they saying things are equal?"
Added Harvey of Wednesday's announcement: "I think it's very disturbing. The misnamed Center for Individual Rights has a perspective and approach that is entirely in error and that is that everyone has an equal opportunity for advancement today."

Ex-Official Cited Concern over Detroit Contracts
A former top official in the Detroit mayor's office says he resigned because he had concerns about how contracts were being awarded under state-appointed emergency manager Kevyn Orr (pictured).
The Detroit Free Press on Friday reported details from the resignation letter of Andre DuPerry, who served as the city's chief procurement officer. DuPerry's last day was Oct. 11. He was recruited by Mayor Dave Bing in 2009 to help improve Detroit's finances.
In the Sept. 27 letter to Bing, DuPerry said it was "impossible for me to feel confident that there is currently transparency, fairness and good judgment."
Emergency manager Kevyn Orr's spokesman Bill Nowling says DuPerry was "a disgruntled employee who chose to move on." Nowling says DuPerry didn't make allegations cited in the letter while employed by Detroit.

How Middle East Millennials Are Remaking the Arab World
The making of the modern Middle East was a post-World War I European project, a colonial erasure of ethnic and tribal lines in favor of strict national boundaries, with little regard for the past, and no regard for the will of the people.
Over the last century, staunch dictators maintained those boundaries and quashed dissent across the region. Through the Cold War, and particularly after the Iranian Revolution, the United States continued to support dictatorships across the Middle East, until the winter of 2011 gave way to the Arab Spring.
In the three years since the Arab Spring began, Tunisia, Egypt, and Libya have all seen varying degrees of success when it comes to democracy and human rights. But Juan Cole, author of "The New Arabs: How the Millennial Generation is Changing the Middle East," says the world needs to give the revolutionaries more time, and that the young protesters who led the Arab Spring will eventually remake their home countries.
Cole, the director of the Center for Middle Eastern and North African Studies at the University of Michigan, reflects on the young Arabs who led the Arab Spring, and the future possibilities for change across the Middle East.
"The generation born roughly from the late 70s and through the year 2000 are called by demographers the millennials, or generation Y, but in the Arab world they are particularly populous—about 40 percent of the population," says Cole. "What's interesting about them is not just that they're there and that they're young, because that's true of youth in India, Indonesia, and a lot of places in the world. But they're organizing on the basis of being young."
Cole says that many millennials in the Middle East are forming political, social and cultural organizations that are specifically designed to represent the goals and interests of their generation.
"The divisions of their parent's generation were really about a kind of military nationalism versus a political Islam—that was the great divide," says Cole. "Baby boomers and people who are now in their 60s are still duking it out over those issues. But the social science on the younger generations—the millennials in the Arab world—suggests that they are much more interested in networking, and have a more democratic view of how society should work."
According to Cole, millennials in the Arab world are universally less religious and observant than generations that have preceded them. Additionally, Cole says that this demographic is also less interested in traditional forms of democracy, like political parties.
"In many ways, the dictators of the region—Hosni Mubark in Egypt, who ruled from 1981 to 2011, and others in Tunisia and elsewhere—destroyed a lot of the old political parties," he says. "The youth tend to be fairly alienated from parties, and not very interested in them on the whole."
Cole adds that many millennials in the Arab world also tend to be more liberal than older generations.
"These people really want to see their own societies shaped in a different direction, and that's where they've put their energies," he says.
Reshaping societal and governmental structures is difficult in any location, but Cole says the workings of democracy in the Middle East can be especially challenging. Because these difficulties persist, Cole says that many millennials have considered moving to the West in search for a better life. And younger people also diverge from previous generations on other issues, too.
"These young people obviously have sympathies with the Palestinians and how they view them to be treated by the Israelis, but by and large, at least in the past three years, they haven't made Israel the issue," says Cole. "There's a feeling amongst them that the old dictatorial regimes would use Israel and American foreign policy as ways of deflecting critiques of how their country was actually run when it came to domestic policy."
While millennials in the Middle East may have certain view points when it comes to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Cole says young activists are determined to bring something new to their own nations and do not want to be distracted by outside politics.
"People don't realize how young these guys were, these young women and young men," says Cole. "It is way too soon to tell how the changes that they kicked off in 2011 are going to work out."

This is the claim of Christopher Duffy, a military historian and former Sandhurst instructor, who has attempted to understand the First World War battle from the enemy's point of view. Researching at the Bavarian War Archives in Munich, he found records of the German questioning of prisoners of war that did not fit the traditional image of an interrogation.
Duffy has published his findings ahead of the 90th anniversary of the Battle of the Somme, the first day of which marked the British army's biggest single loss: a total of 60,000 casualties, of whom nearly 20,000 were killed.
A commemorative service is to be held on 1 July, attended by Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall, as well as 110-year-old Henry Allingham, who was an aircraft engineer at the Somme.
Duffy said: 'The Germans had a tremendous advantage in their knowledge of Britain. Many had been there, they were fascinated by Britain, and had been trying to imitate the yachting and fox-hunting style. So when they received British PoWs, they could talk to them about landmarks and perhaps mutual acquaintances.
'The British expected to be beaten and shot, but this very rarely happened. Instead the initial questioning was very mild and persuasive. The Germans were interested in building up a picture of what made the British tick. They asked some initial questions, then gave the prisoner a coffee and cigar, then turned the conversation to militarily irrelevant details. In this relaxed stage, a lot of military information did leak out.'
The Germans captured 4,291 prisoners on the Somme. In preparation for taking prisoners, German troops near La Boisselle in July were told to learn a number of expressions by heart. They were issued with a document that read: 'When Englishmen are met in the trenches, shout "Hands up, you fool", to be pronounced Hands opp ju fohl, "Arms away", Arms ewa.' Another ran: 'If the Englishmen come out, shout at them, "Hands up, come on Tommy". Honds opp, kom on Tomy.'
Colonel Nicolai, the head of German military intelligence, described the British officer as 'a model of silence, though sometimes English NCOs [non-commissioned officers] and men of long service excelled him... An iron discipline, maintained by a severe code of punishments, is in their blood.'
Yet, Duffy found, almost every prisoner ended up revealing valuable information. Few resisted the German request to fill in a card to be dispatched to their families at home. None grasped that the Germans wanted to learn about all aspects of British life, from relations within the army and between the allies to conditions inside Britain, from tensions in Ireland and India to long-term predictions for the war.
One British memoir of the period recalled that the Germans had a particular method for putting men at ease, so that it appeared they had 'dropped in to see a lot of rather eccentric strangers'.
In his book, Through German Eyes: the British and the Somme 1916, Duffy cites the example of Captain Gilbert Nobbs, who, blinded, was on his way home when captured by the Germans. He was plied with a bottle of wine and the conversation turned to British public opinion, the military contribution of the Dominions, affairs in Ireland and the British government's tolerance of strikes. Nobbs later innocently recalled: 'I soon found that they were not bad fellows at all.'
A Lieutenant Harvey was convinced he had never given away any secret of value, yet from him the Germans learnt of reinforcements for the 48th (South Midland) Division, heavy losses among the Australians at Pozieres, and the officers' estimates of British losses in the opening phase of the Battle of the Somme.
Lieutenant Trevor Colin Hambling talked freely about political affairs in Ireland and India, while an intelligence report said of Lieutenant Godfrey Walter Phillimore, son of a Lord Justice of Appeal, that he 'has a wide education, but his thinking about the war, its causes, its present state and its likely outcome is typically English in its insularity'.
What German intelligence learnt from the questioning, however, did not please them. Duffy said: 'At the end of 1916, the Germans summed up, the British were surprisingly confident of winning and were proud of what they achieved on the Somme.'
· Harry Patch, another First World War survivor, who saw action at the Battle of Passchendaele, celebrated his 108th birthday yesterday with a cream tea at a party at his nursing home in Wells, Somerset. He was called up in 1917.

When offered a job on the Holy Representative's special security team, bounty hunter Zyan Star couldn't be less interested – until she finds out it's her most hated of exes that they're trying to track down. He broke her heart and dumped her, which in turn led to the loss of her soul at the hands of an immortal soul thief. Now she too exists on a diet of souls, with the occasional martini thrown in for good measure, and she's had over two hundred years to fantasize about revenge. She just didn't quite imagine it playing out alongside the emissaries of Heaven.Working with Eli, the uptight angel that heads up the HR's security, is just about as much fun as Zy expects. He of course wants her vampire ex brought to justice through legal avenues, which is very inconvenient and incredibly boring. As she dives into the case, however, she realizes there's more at stake than her plot for payback. Like, the free will of mankind, and preventing the minions of hell from taking over the sovereign dimensions.This job is going to push her to the limits of her abilities, and there's just a slight problem with that: the powers she's suppressed for centuries after losing control of them are exactly the powers she's going to need to save the HR, end her millennia-old ex and stop Lucifer's little plot to join the party and invade Earth.Savior of humanity? Not so much. Or so she thought.

Single character in Italics. Ervin Doyle;
I recently purchased Mathematica 3.0.1. When I type a single character
like "a" it comes out in italics. However, when I type two or more
characters like "ad" or "abc" I get the characters in bold face. This
italic single character appears when I'm setting up equations like f
:= ... or g = ....Is there a reason for this? Do I have to use
double characters in my definitions etc. to avoid the italics when I
don't want them.
Thanks Ervin Doyle
