Perhaps the election result is already staring us in the face. A week into the campaign, the polls are converging – Labour is bouncing around in the low 30s, the Tories in the high 30s and the Liberal Democrats around 20.
Things might remain like this for the next three weeks. With some important exceptions, public opinion has been relatively static since Christmas.
The precise figures still matter, of course – and in the main they are more encouraging for Labour than the party might have expected.
Perhaps the spring sunshine has distracted voters from the first week of the campaign, which election obsessives judged to have gone the Conservatives' way.
Today's poll from YouGov, the most respected of the online polling companies, puts the Tories on 37%, very much at the bottom of end of their comfort zone. With Labour on 31% and the Lib Dems on 20%, that is a Tory lead of just six points. On strict national swing – which won't happen – that could even see Labour win most seats.
Yesterday's crop of polls found more support for the Tories – 40% from YouGov, and 39% in a ComRes poll. The YouGov figures, 40%-32%, were identical to the scores on the day the election was called. Have all those leaflets been delivered in vain?
Among the traditional telephone pollsters, ICM (used by the Guardian) and Populus (the Times) tend to get the most attention.
ICM, in midweek, found the Tories eight points ahead (there will be another poll in the Guardian tomorrow). Populus, on Thursday, put the lead at seven points, 39-32. All of this is within the so-called margin of error, the predictable statistical variation in all polls.
The News of the World tried a different tack yesterday, with a marginals poll. This tested opinion not in the most marginal seats (which the Tories ought to pick up) but in the 96 where the party needs a swing of between 4% and 10%.
If the Tories do well in these, they will get a majority.
The latest figures suggest the Tory advantage has fallen back in these marginals since a similar poll at the start of the year: a swing of 6.3%, not quite enough to pick up a majority.
If correct, this poll pours some cold water on the theory that the swing in the marginals will be enough to see the Tories over the line, however tight the national race.
The underlying message from the polls is that public opinion has yet to break decisively in one direction or the other.
Labour is still performing quite close to its 2005 election score of 36% but it seems unlikely, in reality, that most of the party's past voters will turn out again on polling day.
That is why pollsters disagree with their own figures and are still predicting a Tory win – probably with a majority, but a small one.

5K run through Sewickley to once again benefit facility for wounded soldiers
Rob Veltre III plans to more than double his record-breaking efforts this year to help wounded warriors recover, relax and reconnect with family.
Veltre, 17, a Quaker Valley junior, began his efforts with his personal project last year at school, organizing a 5K run/one-mile walk that he named the Brave American Classic to benefit Boulder Crest Retreat for Wounded Warriors under construction in Bluemont, Va.
He raised $14,000, a total that Linda Conlon, Quaker Valley secondary academic specialist/project coordinator, said was the highest ever raised by a student for a personal project.
Veltre, son of Delia Battista and Robert Veltre Jr. of Sewickley, decided to hold the race again this year at 9 a.m. March 2 at War Memorial Park in Sewickley.
This time, his goal is to raise $30,000 to help build the retreat for soldiers coming home from Iraq and Afghanistan.
Last year, about 135 people participated in the benefit race.
This year, Rob Veltre said, he expects more than 200. There are 12 teams that will participate and are fundraising for the event, including Sewickley United Methodist Church, North Way Christian Community, Girl Scout troops 50930 and 50329 and Veltre's father's company, Inmedius.
Each team will be recognized with a personal framed letter of appreciation from Boulder Crest Retreat Foundation. The top two teams raising the most money will receive medals.
Customized medals will be awarded to the top three male and female finishers plus the male and female winners in various age groups.
The organizer encourages participants to register early to ensure they will receive a red, white and blue long-sleeve T-shirt made from recycled cotton.
Rob Veltre said the fundraiser has received a wealth of support, and a tier system for donations has been set up where sponsors will match up to a certain amount of money donated. Sewickley businesses also are helping to support the race.
Running track and cross country since he was in seventh grade, Veltre said for his personal project, he wanted to choose something he was interested in, so he came up with the 5K race. He said he hopes to keep organizing the race every year.
It all started in 2011 when Ken Falke, the founder of the retreat, asked Veltre's father to join the Boulder Crest board of directors. He and Falke are friends, and formerly worked together on a concept Falke developed for information technology that helped bomb technicians operate more safely.
The older Veltre's company designed, built and helped field the technology to Iraq and Afghanistan.
His son, who also is a member of Student Council, Key Club and National Honor Society and president of the Christian Club at Quaker Valley, said his father's involvement with the project cemented his decision to raise money to help build the retreat.
The teen's mother said the retreat will help wounded warriors get away from the physical and mental grind of the day-to-day outpatient care cycle and relax with family with whom they might not be able to see often.
Veterans will stay in one of four cabins built with the veterans' disabilities in mind on 37 acres donated by Falke and wife Julia at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains, where a lake is located and a garden is being built. It will be free for veterans to visit for a one- to two-week stay.
The retreat, which will have its first "test family" this summer, is slated to open in September.
The younger Veltre, who would like to have a career as an aerospace engineer, said the retreat, which will provide nonclinical therapeutic care to troops suffering physical and psychological wounds, is "truly innovative in that it fits a niche that currently isn't filled in the world of wounded veterans."

One fifth of rich want to flee gloomy Britain-report
By Li-mei Hoang
LONDON (Reuters) - One in five Britons with more than 250,000 pounds ($398,800) in savings are thinking of living abroad because they are tired of crime, poor weather and the high cost of living, the wealth management arm of Lloyds Banking Group said on Monday.
Britain, facing the worst economic crisis in nearly a century, is grappling with how to preserve its image as a safe-haven for the international rich while increasing taxes and slashing public spending.
But the research from Lloyds TSB International Wealth showed that 19 percent of wealthy Britons were thinking of moving to euro zone countries like France and Spain or further afield to the United States, Australia, New Zealand or Canada.
"It is clear that a significant and growing minority see opportunity and a better quality of life overseas," Lloyds TSB International Wealth Director Nicholas Boys Smith, who oversaw the report, said in a statement.
"Our research suggests the number of wealthy people leaving the UK is set to increase in the next two years," he said.
"Clearly there's a growing minority that is worried about the outlook; infrastructure, crime, anti-social behavior, tax, red tape and do believe that there are better options abroad," Boys Smith told Reuters.
"What's interesting is one of the highest proportions of people looking to leave are wealthy people living in London, and the highest proportion of wealthy people looking to leave are aged 25-34.
"It is people who are out there with a career in front of them, looking to go out and make money, do things and make their own impact in the world, not just people retiring to France or Spain for a place in the sun," he added. Continued...

IRVINE, Calif. --- Catcher Ronnie Shaeffer snapped a 3-3 tie with a run-scoring single in the bottom of the seventh as No. 21 UC Irvine defeated California, 5-3 Friday at Cicerone Field at Anteater Ballpark.
With Cal threatening in the top of the seventh after an RBI triple from Jacob Wark that tied the game, the Anteaters turned to Andrew Morales with two outs and the go-ahead run at third. Derek Campbell, who had an RBI single earlier in the game, worked the count full against Morales but the junior right-hander struck out Campbell to leave Wark stranded the score knotted at 3-3.
UCI's offense struck in the seventh. Dominique Taylor laced a one-out hit to left-center and was followed by Taylor Sparks (3 for 5), who delivered a hit-and-run single to put runners on first and third. Shaeffer (3 for 5) jumped on a 1-0 pitch to right off Trevor Hildenberger to score Taylor and Connor Spencer gave UCI an insurance run with a sacrifice fly to center that easily scored Sparks.
That would be all for California as Morales struck out two in a scoreless eighth to improve to 2-0 and closer Race Parmenter posted his second save after striking out one in a shutout ninth.
The Golden Bears jumped on the scoreboard in the first on the RBI hit from Campbell in the third but UCI answered in the bottom of the inning. Chris Rabago led off the inning with a triple to the right-centerfield wall and crossed the plate on a grounder to short off the bat of Jeff Stephens.
UCI then loaded the bases in the fourth for Mikey Duarte, who squeezed home Shaeffer for the go-ahead run. A fielding error by pitcher Justin Jones allowed Connor Spencer to score as the Anteaters took a 3-1 advantage.
Cal scored a single run in the fifth on a sacrifice fly from Mitchell Kranson.
Starter Andrew Thurman gave UCI a solid start. The right-hander hurled six innings and struck out nine to highlight a season-high 13 strikeouts by the Anteater pitching staff. Thurman walked one and yielded three runs on five hits in the no-decision.
Elliot Surrey picked up for Thurman with pitched 2/3 innings in relief.
Jones pitched four innings and allowed three runs (two earned) on six hits while striking out four in the no-decision. Trevor Hildenberger suffered the loss (1-1) after giving up two runs on four hits in an inning of work.
The series continues Saturday with a double-header scheduled for 12:00 p.m. and 3:00 p.m.

A new multistage numerical method based on blending a Gauss-Siedel relaxation method and Chebyshev pseudospectral method, for solving complex dynamical systems exhibiting hyperchaotic behavior, is presented. The proposed method, called the multistage spectral relaxation method (MSRM), is applied for the numerical solution of three hyperchaotic systems, namely, the Chua, Chen, and Rabinovich-Fabrikant systems. To demonstrate the performance of the method, results are presented in tables and diagrams and compared to results obtained using a Runge-Kutta-(4,5)-based MATLAB solver,

Hey guys, so as my thread's question says… Has any of you ever tried Zenva's courses to study HTML Game Development, App Development or anything similar?http://zenva.com/en/services They have their academy: https://academy.zenva.com/
Just wondering. I'd be glad to get some feedback.

Hi , my friend runs a small pro studio and he uses Mackie monitors(the big ones with 10 or 12 inch drivers). All i can say is to me they sound amazing.
Thanks for the feedback! Does anyone have anything else to add? I really want to make a superb choice there…
Hey everyone!
Very sorry for the long message. I really want to explain my situation clearly so you guys can help me
So, I'm planning to get back to music composing and return to my AudioJungle privileges as an author, but I'd like to boost my quality of music first of all by enhancing the equipment I was previously using. Despite the fact that I'm on a budget, I'm looking to get new, studio-quality headphones, microphone, etc… but my first choice of equipment is new studio monitors.
That's where I am a bit uncertain because I had previously read a lot of awesome reviews on KRK Rokit monitors, and this series of monitors was what I was going for: http://www.krksys.com/krk-studio-monitor-speakers/rokit/rokit-8.html
But this week, when I contacted what is regarded as Ghana's biggest music equipment shop, one of the shop's top attendant explained to me that KRK Rokit monitors were easy to disappoint, and the shop had received bad reviews from some music producers, who complained that the sound produced by the KRK monitors wasn't as neutral as they had expected it to be. The shop eventually stopped selling KRK monitors.
He then recommended that I try their new partner's products, which happens to be Mackie monitors. He says they will soon be having MRmk3 Series monitors, and that whilst there were a lot of factors that could be taken into consideration to review their performance, they were basically excellent monitors.http://www.mackie.com/products/studiomonitors/
I need your help guys… In Ghana, shipping products can be a tough task, so the only option left for me now is primarily Mackie monitors, including MR8 and MR5 monitors. Should I go for them? Do you have experience with Mackie monitors? Can you tell me the advantages/disadvantages of KRK Rokit monitors and Mackie MR8/MR5 monitors?
I'm going to be using them in a room probably 5×5 x 3.5 meters in dimension. Please advise me! THANKS!
Yay! 4G Internet speed has arrived in Ghana! This means I can upload tracks easily moving forward!http://isaacasante.hubpages.com/hub/Surfline-Ghana-Overview-4G-LTE-Internet-Bundles-Devices-and-Products
Stardiva and Boldtrax, thanks for your replies! I'll scan the sites you proposed.
OlexandrIgnatov said
http://www.Audiojungle.net is the best music production course I've seen. And it's free!
Haha, I think one can gain lots of experience here by listening to or interacting with professionals. But speaking of the ins and outs of music production, I think it's not the best option :))
Hey, I was wondering, do you guys know any equivalent of Treehouse, but for music production this time around? Treehouse focus on Web Design and Back-End Development for $25 per month, but I also need a site teaching music production (and Cubase, FL Studio or Pro Tools, etc).
Even if we have to pay every month… Don't hesitate to write down anything that comes to your mind. I'm a bit lost there…
Edit: My title got messed up before I submitted this thread, so it doesn't make sense at the moment. I meant "What is the best music production courses site on the web?". I hope a moderator can rectify this for me.
Brazil are getting chewed again!!
Alright guys, 5 reasons Germany have to win against Argentina:
- They've become the fiercest side of this WC with their 4-0 win over Portugal and 7-1 humiliation to host nation Brazil.
- They've made history in this tournament with Klose becoming the tournament's greatest ever goalscorer. They have to end their competition in style.
- They've reached the WC semis in 2002, 2006, 2010. They need to win it now…
- Their defense doesn't concede much.
- Their top players are available to play in the final.
What's your FINAL bet for the result now??
martinjamez said
IsaacA saidits not about luck, the goal keeper is for preventing goals, but the poles of goal post are not,
martinjamez saidIf there was luck with Costa Rica, they wouldn't have missed their penalty shootout!
FinalDestiny saidif there was luck with dutch, they will win the match min for 2-0 in 90 mins, 2 shots on poles, except the saves by goal keeper, so it was not a narrow escape,
Netherlands barely qualified vs Costa Rica, seriously?
Nice point… I have to admit Netherlands deserved to qualify. Now, I think they can even humiliate Argentina, but I'd love to check how Argentina will face Germany. So I'm for Argentina!

text: In february, the Wall Street Journal picked UMaine's Alfond Arena as the place with the best atmosphere in college hockey.With more renovations nearly finished on the home of the black bears, Prescott Rossi takes a look at what makes the Alfond so special.Since first opening it's doors in 1977, UMaine's Alfond Arena has been a major part of the UMaine hockey program. But more than just the building, it's the thousands of Mainers that have filled the Alfond through the years that make the arena unlike any other in college hockey.Ryan Hegarty – UMaine Senior"That was definitely a selling point for me, the fans, the crowd, the building itself was unbelievable."Tim Whitehead – UMaine Head Coach"This is a treasured facility for us and we think the best venue in college hockey. It's got an atmosphere that is just electric."In order to maintain that electricity, the building is undergoing a 4.85 million dollar renovation project through private donors. over the summer, construction crews installed a new cooling system in the alfond along with new ice, boards, and seats in the lower bowl, but the progress does not stop there."We always look at our Alfond Arena here like a mini-Fenway Park. Now we've done this renovation project. We will expand the Hall of Fame in our next project, improve the front entrance, renovate the rest rooms. Every year, we want to do something like they do at Fenway to really keep this place special."Joe Carr – UMaine Spokesman"It's a place where tremendous things have happened throughout the past 30 years or so and certainly we can expect more to come at Alfond Arena."

Jan. 16, 2013
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. ----- When the Raycom College Football All-Star Classic is kicked off for the first time Saturday in Montgomery, Ala., there will be a pair of UAB Blazers showcasing their talents.
All-Conference USA performers, linebacker Marvin Burdette and offensive lineman Chris Hubbard, will be among the players in action for the inaugural all-star game at the Cramton Bowl.
The game will played Saturday, January 19, 2013 at 2 p.m. (CT) at the Cramton Bowl and will be televised live on CBS Sports Network.
The Raycom College Football All-Star Classic features elite college football seniors participating in NFL-formatted practices that are open to the public. The Raycom College Football All-Star Classic will be coached by former NFL head coaches Jim Bates and Dan Reeves. Bates will coach the Stars Team of which Burdette is a member and Reeves will guide the Stripes team that includes Hubbard.
Burdette finished the 2012 season as the nation's leading tackler with an average of 13.08 stops. The Batesville, Miss. native set Blazer records for most tackles in a career (406) and a season (157). He also tied a UAB single-game mark when he recorded 24 tackles at Tulane in October.
This will be the second all-star game appearance in as many weeks for Burdette. Last Saturday, he played in the Casino Del Sol All-Star Game in Tucson, Ariz.
Hubbard was the anchor of the Blazers' offensive line last season that helped UAb to rank third in C-USA and 19th nationally in passing yards per game. Hubbard, from Columbus, Ga., started all 12 games the past two seasons.

The Sooner Intel is an inside look into Oklahoma football and basketball recruiting and is solely for Sooners Illustrated subscribers. It is a sneak peek into what's happening with OU recruiting and is not to be distributed anywhere else.
He's the Mann for OU
There was a certain buzz last week when the Sooners finally made the offer to Burleson (Texas) High defensive end Kenneth Mann. It was a feeling that this wasn't just another offer and good things were going to come probably a lot sooner than everybody realized.
Those feelings were spot on as Mann made sure to return to Norman on Wednesday and committed to the Sooners.
There were a couple of things surrounding his visit that made a commitment unlikely, but in the end, it didn't matter. For one thing, it was pretty clear from the get go OU head coach Bob Stoops wasn't going to be there because of media obligations at ESPN.
Mann shrugged that off and said that didn't matter much. The second part was he wanted his mother to join him for the visit but that didn't happen, either.
"It would have been nice, but it's not like my mom is going to be with me for college," Mann said. "It's a decision I had to make on my own. I know I have her support."
Mann said he didn't enter the visit thinking he would leave as OU's ninth pledge of the class, but he was so happy with how the visit shook out that he saw no point in waiting anymore.
"OU was the place for me so I said why wait on it," Mann said. "After the tour and everything and talking with the coaches, I knew."
The one coach in particular was OU defensive line coach Jerry Montgomery, who provided the usual "BOOM" tweet whenever OU gets a commitment.
The commitment felt inevitable, but the offer sure wasn't. Mann visited OU for the spring game and was hopeful then for the offer. He said he really thought it was coming his way. Once it didn't, he said he had accepted the fact the Sooners weren't looking in his direction.
But as we all know with OU coaches, when they say they'll get back to you, they usually mean it. And once the coaches agreed Mann would fit in well with the system, he received the offer.
"I was really surprised by the offer," Mann said. "I thought everything was done."
One of the biggest highlights for Mann was getting to talk to fellow defensive end Charles Tapper. After posting a picture on Twitter, OU fans got a lot more excited about Mann because of how he looked next to Tapper.
However, what got Mann excited about Tapper had absolutely nothing to do with size or depth chart or even football. It was all about Montgomery.
"I had a chance to talk to Tap for a long time, and I asked a lot about Coach Montgomery," Mann said. "He said he's a great coach who treats you right. He said he's not somebody who is going to say things to recruit you and then change when you get there. It meant a lot."
Mann has more than 20 offers, but he said the recruiting process is done for him. The craziest thing about Wednesday was his Twitter account. He started the day with a locked account and around 220 followers. He ended the day with more than 500 followers and gave up on being a locked account.
"I had no idea it was going to be like that," Mann said. "So many OU fans wanted to follow. I didn't know what else to do so I just changed it."
Mann is a three-star prospect and was OU's second defensive end commitment of the week.
Humphrey ready to return to Norman
A good chunk of this Intel deals with the OU-Texas recruiting battles. No doubt Lampkin is one where it feels like the Sooners might be on the outside looking in.
Conversely, the script seems flipped in regards to Clear Falls (Texas) League City wide receiver John Humphrey. Originally scheduled to visit OU this month, it felt like he delayed the visit so he could see Austin last week.
The prevailing thought for some was Humphrey would showcase his speed, get the offer from the Longhorns and then who knows what would have happened next.
Um, that's not even close to what happened. Humphrey texted last weekend and then tweeted earlier this week that Texas is no longer in consideration for his services. The general feeling was the interest wasn't nearly as high as Humphrey wanted it to be.
Not the first time that's happened with a Texas high school recruit who was leaning toward the Sooners. Pflugerville (Texas) Hendrickson four-star cornerback P.J. Mbanasor felt the same sort of slighted feeling with Texas with his recruitment. Mbanasor committed to OU nearly two months ago.
Humphrey, once committed to Baylor, seems like he's OU's to lose at this point although Notre Dame is still in the picture. He is still slated to return to OU next weekend for the Sooners' practice Aug. 2. If he does indeed show up, nobody will be surprised if he commits even though he said he's going to wait until the Semper Fidelis All-American Game.
Approaching a broken record at this point, but it's obvious Humphrey is in the short list for the Sooners for a slot receiver for this class.
Brown is a Longhorn
Not too much in the news of OU targets committing elsewhere but one that did happen was with Burton (Texas) High defensive prospect Louis Brown.
A one-time Baylor commit, Brown committed to Texas on Monday. After his decommitment from the Bears, it felt a two-school race between OU and Texas.
But as time wore on, it became pretty clear to everybody that Texas wasn't going to lose this battle. The Longhorns turned up the heat in his recruitment, while OU sort of faded away and moved on.
Williams the next offer?
Don't look for any commitments this weekend, but one big offer should be made this weekend to Fort Worth (Texas) All Saints defensive lineman Mike Williams.
Williams, a four-star prospect for the Class of 2016, is ranked No. 9 at defensive tackle right now and has offers from several top schools. This is an offer that has felt like it's a longtime coming.
Williams tweeted earlier this week he is heading to OU this weekend. Provided he does arrive in Norman, the biggest shock would be for him to leave without an offer.
Even though the Sooners aren't officially in the race yet, he has spoken highly of OU multiple times so it just feels like it's a case of making it official and having him as a top target for 2016.

Injury Free Coalition for Kids: Dissemination of a Model Injury Prevention Program for Children and Adolescents
The Foundation's program, Injury Free Coalition for Kids: Dissemination of a Model Injury Prevention Program for Children and Adolescents, was designed to reduce and prevent injuries to children through a hospital-based, research-driven model, implemented in partnership with coalitions of community stakeholders.This grant supports programs currently under way to reduce injury to the children of Rochester. These programs include an effort to assess, with the Monroe County Department of Transportation, the feasibility of making engineering changes at intersections that have been identified as hot spots for crashes. Classes will be scheduled with community organizations and city recreation centers to make the community aware of the dangers present at these intersections and what they can do to minimize the number of injuries. Interventions will include instituting new educational programs, focusing on law enforcement efforts, and engineering changes to reduce the likelihood or severity of injury, or to provide monetary incentives for the use of safety measures.

What is a Tea Poet?
"The poet descends low. He forsakes the parnassian assembly."
While the Parnassian movement—a reaction against Romanticism that called for a recognition of art independent of any moral, social, or scientific consideration—produced few poets of lasting renown, its significant influence has been recognized by artist and critic alike. Okay, I got that from Wikipedia…you see, during the AWP conference, there was an off-site reading billed as "The Best Reading" happening at a "secret" location from 10pm-1am. My curiosity beckoned, and subsequent contacts eventually directed me towards a penthouse apartment overlooking the Chicago river at 11pm on a Friday night. I coralled three of my poetry brethren on this adventure, convincing them of speakeasy bachelor paddyness after attending an issue launch of an established journal earlier in the evening—a collection of diverse readers excelling in the sum of our parts. We made our way through the high winds of a late night, basking in the glow of our mutual delivery. In pre-expectation of a Mad Men soiree, and with no known information on what exactly a "best" reading would consist of at a "secret" location…we were rightfully prepared to duck out if any wordsters dare drop an inkling of verse. We were about to descend low, sharing the elevator ride with a trio of cool hipsters. All of us, winking silently at each other, Yeah…AWP Baby!
After the trio got off on the wrong floor, adolescent mortality set in, Damn them…they had their own party. Ours was indeed a "reading" packed with like-minded secrecy searchers, silent but for the lone poet holding court against a picture window. We didn't say anything to each other as the host shushered us in towards the kitchen, away from the fray. We settled by the gourmet finger food and wine, content with our lot. Eventually taking in our surroundings, the question of "secret" and "best" gave way to an exquisite corpse on an iPhone being passed between the four of us, eg… "We done do the thing. // Dang done did it huh? // Doing the demo thing domed. // Duh)))now(((detest da lug." // …and so on, our natural drift, oblivious to the rapt attention being given to the speakers.
I was witness to a mob mentality of sorts, the centrifuge of a crowd gone silent. A room of supporters, initiating a finger-snapping tidal wave where irony had gone out the window. I've been in readings before where I felt I was the lone goat but this had a different vibe. A self-important air that managed to frighten while leaving no memorable impression—why did that seem so familiar?
"The poet is a tea bag. Dormant in the golden valise."
Not a TeaBag-Poet more like a TEE Poet or a simple T-Poet or a true Tea Party Poet. See how the phrase "Tea Poet" captures perfectly the horror of an out-of-control sensation where the world you're in is escalating out of control and you have nothing in your arsenal to fight it? I should say here that the hour was late and I was biased against the reading because I was not receptive to a reading of any sort…that is, of course, after my fictitious buildup of an out-of-control shindig. But standing there, elbow to elbow in a sea of poets I drunkenly found uninspiring yet scary in their commitment to an imagined cause—my delirium consecrating the death of poetry right there, before the masses—brought up issues of community-as-cult…the individual poetry camps…the belief systems…the figureheads of movements throughout the alchemical roaming of language.
How passionate is the fight that defines our way? The groups we find comfort in, the ones that challenge—forever my balance gets the better of me. Maybe this is where a "Secret Poetry Society" could handle such terror. I thought I made that up, really I did, but then I found this. And the clash of fonts on my server speak to a higher miscalculation than merely having the wrong server…it's gotta be a secret poem, I know it! So, I scroll down to discover "THIS SITE WAS CREATED FOR POETS BY POETS" the pride radiating from those words, beaming a dare from a faceless font!
What is secret about keeping your work from the world, when the world is how you made it? Watching the Tea Poets unleash their agenda—my conjured vision driving poetry's hearse—I questioned the capacity for listening, for letting the world in. What separates a horde of like-minded revelers, from a gathering of passionate supporters? Maybe it's the ability to know how easily the winds of change can disrupt the action of moving limbs, the active body, churning whatever scribbled remainder chooses to keep itself embedded—a recognition, independent of moral, social, or scientific consideration, you see. It isn't my intention to level the chasm, to insinuate pleasantry, to obviate a missive for an unrelated cause…I just felt the shape of the evening lead me to question my own transformative shift. What is or isn't inspiring doesn't matter if we walk with our secrets, knowing they know us—as humans in transition.

Ensure project success with requirements management
Requirements elicitation, management and analysis are the cornerstones of successful software delivery projects. In a recent industry study, organisations surveyed identified that unstable and changing business requirements were the number one cause of project failures [Capers Jones, 2012]. Organisations with poor business analysis and stakeholder engagement capabilities can expect three times as many project failures as successes. With proper requirements management and definition, organisations can reduce project overruns by as much as 20 percent by limiting the number of inaccurate, incomplete, and omitted requirements.

Insane Pile Up On Mendota Bridge This Afternoon
Soooooo....winter isn't QUITE over, just yet. It's felt a bit "springy" lately. Kind of thought this pretty large flaked snow fall would just sort of come and go, but this is a reminder how even a small amount of snowfall can screw up our roads and make life difficult. Apparently, Old Man Winter isn't ready to relent on us just yet as witnessed in this crazy video from earlier today (Monday, March 24th).
Thankfully, all reports are no one was seriously injured. To me, that's just unreal.

Have a Tax Question? Ask a Tax Expert
Sales of stocks, mutual funds, and other investments are reported on Schedule D. Since you state that he has held them for greater than one year, the information from the 1099-B would be reported in Part II of the form, long-term capital gains and losses.
The amount in Box 2 represents the sales price of your son's mutual fund. It does not represent additional income per se, but does need to be reported on his tax return. This amount is reported in Box 8d of Schedule D. The cost basis of the mutual fund is reported on line 8e (this should be in Box 3 of the 1099-B). The only amount that is taxable (or deductible in the case of a loss) is the difference between the selling price and the cost basis.

Have a Tax Question? Ask a Tax Expert
Hello sspinella 1,
Thank you for using Just Answer.
The insurance paid for coverage on a house is not generally used as a deduction unless the house is rental property. Then it would be shown on the Schedule E of the owner of the rental property.
As for property taxes, to be deductible, the tax must be imposed on you as the owner of the property. If you are the owner of the property then the taxes would be deducted on your Schedule A if for your personal use property and if for a business property they would be shown on the appropriate business form.
Thank you again,
Hello Robin,
Thank you for the reply.
In this particular scenario the person has been forced to use her income in order to do a loan modification. I understand the rule however in his situation are there ever exeptions?
Hello again,
The insurance is never used on personal home and there are no exceptions.
The taxes must be imposed on you (that is exactly the way it is worded in IRS publication) this equates that you own the property. If an individual is not liable for th tax and they pay for someone else, that would be considered a gift should the non owner pay for the owner, but no deduction would be allowed to the giver.
Thanks again,
I am going to accept the answer and I have one more question that pertains to it... if you dont mind .
In this situation the person who does own the house is an elderly man who only has social security income of 15,648 per year. In your opinion would it make sense for him to file taxes (he has not for a long time) and use the interest and taxes as a write off?
Thank you for your help.
If the only income to the person that owns th e home is Social Security and none other income, it would not benefit him to file.
I can not think of any refundable credits that he would be allowed. A refundable credit (one that garnered him a refund) would be the only reason he would want to file at this point.
One more twist.... sorry.
What if he claimed rental income as well as the social security? Would it make sense for him to fil than? rental income would be around 22,000.
If the gentleman is renting out property he is required to file and report the rent received and then he may claim all expenses for the rental. If he has no tax payments made then he will not receive a refund.
With no refundable credits and no tax payments made (such as estimated taxes) there is no refund to expect.

Gators Beat Hogs, Move To 3-0 In SEC
By Dory LeBlanc
Follow @DoryLeBlanc
The No. 18 Florida Gators remain unbeaten in the Southeastern Conference (3-0) after a shaky start, falling behind 7-0 to the Arkansas Razorbacks before going on to outscore the Hogs 30-3.
Freshman cornerback Vernon Hargreaves III took college football by storm in his first four games with seven tackles (including one for loss), three interceptions and a blocked kick while Loucheiz Purifoy, said to be the Gators' top draft prospect, sat out the opener due to a suspension and had been quiet in the three games that followed, still looking for his first career interception.
All of that changed Saturday night at the Swamp.
Purifoy forced a fumble after taking QB Brandon Allen to the ground in the first quarter and put the Gators up 10-7 after intercepting the Hogs signal caller and returning it 42 yards for a score. However, as good as the junior from
The Gators, who entered the game ranked 35th in the nation in rushing, continued to split carries between Matt Jones and Mack Brown who combined for a dismal 89 yards on 28 carries.
With Arkansas' defense focused heavily on stuffing the Florida RB tandem Tyler Murphy was forced to keep the ball in the air, and did not disappoint, throwing for three touchdowns – the first time A Gator QB passed for at least three scores since Jeff Driskel did it with four against South Carolina almost a year ago.
Murphy, who completed 16-of-22 passes for 240 yards also ran the ball seven times for 15 yards.
Two of those touchdown receptions were caught by Solomon Patton, who matched his season total in TDs against the Hogs and picked up 124 yards on six receptions and 14 yards on two attempts on the ground.

So far in the first five games this season, the Gators have outscored opponents a combined 72-12 points in the 2nd and 3rd quarters, without allowing a TD and have held 12 consecutive SEC opponents to 20 points or less.

Josh Friedman Talks Sarah Connor Chronicles
So they're doing big Terminator action on TV with The Sarah Connor Chronicles. Producers have learned how to maintain high quality spectacle on a small screen budget. But those were R-rated movies. Are they really going to get away with Terminators on TV? Series creator and show runner Josh Friedman promises he'll please the fans without pissing off their parents.
Friedman on The Sarah Connor Chronicles
"I think one of the opportunities we actually have on the show because of the context and what the show is about, kind of the apocalypse and this big scare about what's coming to try to end mankind, we have a really great opportunity to kind of really explore human value and humankind," said Friedman. "Obviously, there's a race of terminators coming who think that humankind has no value and a lot of t he show is how do you prosecute a war against a force that doesn't value you at all or value themselves at all? How do you do that and still maintain your own humanity? I think that to the degree there's violence or action or anything in it, I think not only is it going to be done responsibly, but I take it very seriously because I think that's thematically what it's about. How does Sarah raise a son to be the leader of the free world? You can't do it by just teaching him to shoot guns. You have to teach him how to be a man and how to lead from a moral place. So I think it's more than just shoot stuff. It's every life needs to be valued and I think that's kind of what the show is about."
Already a scene in the pilot set in a high school has raised question with some critics, and Friedman is considering retooling it. "I'm actually from Colorado and I grew up not far from Columbine. When I wrote it, I certainly didn't write it for some sort of shock effect or anything like that. It was written because I think it was the most important way to tell that part of the story. I'm a parent and at the time that I was writing it, my wife and I were just starting to talk about sending my child to school. It felt like as I was kind of thinking about Sarah and John and that relationship, a lot of the show is about this woman who've very much a control freak, letting this child go off into the world. For all of us as parents, I think it's a very scary world. For her particularly, it's a very scary world, maybe more so than for the rest of us but not in a quantum leap necessarily. We're re-shooting parts of it and we're really sensitive to people's concerns but I think we'll wait and see what it looks like at the end."
Since John Connor is in high school, and his new protector is hottie Summer Glau, the show can hopefully have fun with his hormonal thoughts. "For me, the important thing about her character as it relates to her age is two things: One, the original Cameron conception that terminators were infiltrators. The original T-800 was never Arnie. It wasn't supposed to be Arnie. Arnie just kind of fit in and made it into something bigger. But he in some ways took it away from the original conception of these characters that could blend in with humanity and destroy it from within more. So one, she comes out of that spirit. Two, as it relates to the mother/son element of the story, I think just in terms of a coming of age story for a boy becoming a man, eventually he has to let go of his mother. Usually that requires a third leverage point and for most boys, that third leverage point is another girl. Whether it's a sexual thing or not, I think just having a third point to the triangle which is sort of a female point really solidifies that triangle in a way. You can see him growing up and those two women battling for influence over him."
Of course the big question is: Is there any chance Arnold himself could appear on the show? In between campaign initiatives of course. "I think you're at the wrong press conference to be asking that question. We've talked a lot about it but the reality is that as governor he's incredibly busy. As a star, he's incredibly expensive. So we have great preference for him but we don't know. We just don't know if he's every going to be able to do any guest [work]."
Okay, we'll take Kyle Reese. Michael Biehn should be available. "Wow, good idea."

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is commonly associated with children, but it can affect adults as well. It makes it hard for a person to focus and pay attention. Many adults have ADHD and don't know they have it. Like ADHD in children and teens, ADHD in adults can make life challenging. ADHD can make it hard for adults to feel organized, stick with a job, or get to work on time. Adults with ADHD may have trouble in relationships. The disorder can also make adults feel restless.
To be diagnosed with the condition, an adult must have ADHD symptoms that began in childhood and continued throughout adulthood. Health professionals use certain rating scales to determine if an adult has ADHD. The mental health professional also will look at the person's history of childhood behavior and school experiences, and will interview spouses or partners, parents, close friends, and other associates. The person will also have a physical exam and some psychological tests.
ADHD in adults can be diagnosed and treated. Medication and therapy, alone or in combination, are used to treat ADHD. Treatments can relieve many of the disorder's symptoms, but there is no cure. For some adults, finding out they have ADHD can be a big relief. Being able to connect ADHD to longtime problems helps adults understand that they can get better. If you're an adult and think you may have ADHD symptoms, call your doctor.

WHS Adoptable Animals
The Wisconsin Humane Society (WHS) is a private, nonprofit organization whose mission is to build a community where people value animals and treat them with respect and kindness. For more than 128 years, WHS has been saving the lives of animals in need. We offer adoption services that place 9,000 animals in new homes annually, veterinary services that save thousands of lives, educational programs that instill respect for animals, behavior services to assist guardians and a myriad of other initiatives that help end suffering for animals. We depend entirely on private donations to fund our programs and rely on volunteers in nearly every department. If you are interested in adopting, volunteering, enrolling in a class, taking a tour or making a donation, check out our comprehensive web site at wihumane.org. The adoptable animals' web pages are updated every 30 minutes!
A special needs Lab/Corgi dog is seeking a special home.
Meet Ben!
Ben is a very special dog looking for an equally special guardian. We had a specialist examine the 1.5-year-old Labrador Retriever/Corgi mix because one of his front legs shows signs of lameness. The specialist said that he's not in any pain, but Ben could require surgery in the near future and further diagnostic tests are recommended. We want to find an adopter willing to make that commitment. Believe us, Ben is worth it! Check out his YouTube video and fall in love (or just stop by the Wisconsin Humane Society at 45th & Wisconsin to meet him!).

• Into the palace of varieties that is the European parliament in Brussels. Richard Howitt, MEP for the east of England, is on his feet. Howitt is concerned about the spying activities of the authorities in Colombia against those who highlight human rights abuses. Previously Karel de Gucht, the European trade commissioner, promised to investigate. It's a hot topic. On Monday, the office of the UN commissioner for human rights in Colombia reported evidence of continued illegal spying. What's happening, demanded Howitt. Hold on, said De Gucht, theatrically whipping out his mobile phone. "I am consulting my own intelligence services," he said. He then read out a text message suspiciously close to the Colombian government's line that the problem is solved because the intelligence service has been closed. Then he slipped his phone back into his pocket and moved on to other business. The commissioner for comedy. Truly statesmanlike don't you think?
• Here, meanwhile, we see indications that the prime minister has trouble satisfying his rightwing partners. A revolt on immigration here, a broadside about the 50% rate of tax there. Nonstop grumbling about his emasculation by the Lib Dems. And now, from the youthful right, an apparent defection. Because he has his ear to the ground, he will have heard of Alexandra Swann. She did various helping-out things at the Commons for his colleague David Morris, MP for Morecambe and Lunesdale, but more notably she served until the last general election as deputy chair of the go-ahead youth wing Conservative Future. And now, she has let her party membership lapse: destination Ukip. "I have been a libertarian for a long time," she tells us. "I have been a Conservative member since I was 16 and campaigning since I was 14. But I don't know if I have ever been a true Conservative. Ukip is more along the lines I believe in." Dave's fab, she says, but "because of the coalition, the Conservative party is in a difficult position. There are a lot of unconservative policies." As for Nigel Farage: "I think he is fantastic." Well, she's young. And it's all relative, isn't it?
• And a message to the PM. While you're putting the world to rights, bullying Labour Ed, lecturing Europe on human rights, could you have a word with your man Steve Hilton. All very well for him to be careering around Downing Street with his shoes and socks off, but the other day we encountered him in Benugo, the trendy bar of the British Film Institute, having an ale with a male companion. Shoeless, on a tall stool with his trademark scruffy trainers abandoned on the floor next to his courier bag. What about the other drinkers? Don't they have human rights too?
• Amid the swirl of hostility and invective whizzing around Twitter and the internet, signs that the rich and famous are ready to fight back. According to the Stage newspaper, the writer Susan Hill, author of The Woman in Black, has had enough. Hill told an audience at the British Library of an email she received. "Hi Sue," it said. "I'm doing your book, we have read it and I just want to say it's the most boring crap I ever read, so thanks for ruining my life." To which she replied: "Well, somebody had to." Go Susan. That's the spirit.
• And finally, a message to the lady with the shoulder-length brown hair who took to broadcasting the worries of her parliamentary master "Nick" to the top deck of the 27 bus in west London over a torturous half-hour earlier this week. A few things to say: one is that it was presumptuous to keep parroting the mantra "your constituency seat is safe". More so to keep describing it as an "easy seat", even if that did seem necessary – from what passengers around could hear – to calm the poor man down. Our "election plan will work", she said. And soon, she promised, she would reveal to him "the structure of our campaign". Sooner rather than later, by the sound of things. And if it can be done in a way that doesn't tear a deck-load of commuters away from their iPods, so much the better.

NAMIBC will be collecting donations, filling holiday bags and looking for new ideas for items that would be appreciated by both patients and staff.

so im looking at getting a cts up in the 100k+ mile range. a 2008 sedan at like 120k+ or a wagon at 100k+
so, how does the cts platform fare at those high mileages?
the way i see it, in most cases, cars that are treated poor dont make it to 100k, and by then all of the problems present from the factory have been addressed, so its generally smooth sailing until you get up towards 200k where things start dying from wear.
whereas something like a jag begin to fall to pieces unless you keep on top of it all the time.
is this true for the cts as well? or do problems really start to mount up then?
this is assuming i keep up with regular oil changes (not dropping below 30% oil) and that the previous owner did so as well.
