His latest novel, Catching The Sun, describes broken Britain and a family's escape to a tropical paradise. But bestselling author Tony Parsons will never leave this country, he confesses to Hannah Stephenson, and reveals why the grass isn't always greener.
Tony Parsons has enjoyed a good rant in his time, as a writer and former hell-raiser who once hung out with The Sex Pistols, took drugs and slept with lots of women.
But today the multi-millionaire author, who made his name 13 years ago with Man And Boy, has become Mr Respectable with an Essex twang, a fervent monarchist who still believes in this country despite an economy on its knees and rising unemployment. If he had a Union Jack flag, he'd be waving it.
"I love this country and I feel very British," declares Parsons.
"I'm a fanatical royalist. I'm the punk rocker who defected to the Crown. I think the Queen is more of a punk than Johnny Rotten. She's following her destiny - and Johnny Rotten's advertising margarine."
Yet Parsons was brought up in a working-class household which was sceptical about the monarchy.
"My dad always used to tell the story about meeting George VI when he received his Distinguished Service Medal at Buckingham Palace. The story goes that the King said, 'You've done very well, Parsons' and Dad looked at him and said, 'And you've done all right yourself'. Dad had that non-deferential attitude."
Parsons, a former punk chronicler who used to chop out lines of speed on restaurant tables, is now more at home promoting adult literacy with the Duchess of Cornwall, slagging off political parties in equal measure in his Mirror newspaper column and doing the (private) school run with his nine-year-old daughter, Jasmine.
He bangs the drum about the lack of social mobility in this country, yet his argument seems to be directed as much towards the Labour party as the Tories.
"To say I was a lifelong Labour supporter is overstating it," he says.
"I was brought up in a Labour household. My sympathies would lie with the underdog but at the same time I live in the real world and I've probably seen a bit more of the world than the average Labour politician on the front bench who's been to Oxford."
Parsons, 58, looks fit - thanks to his regular boxing training - and is amiable enough. He plays down his wealth, intimating that while it may give him a certain amount of freedom he can't rest on his laurels because he's not tied to a book contract.
He may love Britain, but he doesn't paint a very favourable picture of the country in his latest novel, Catching The Sun.
It's set against a menacing backdrop, including hoodies who intimidate old people, while the taxi driver central character is almost jailed for confronting two burglars in his own home. This fuels him to leave the country with his wife and children to seek a happier life on the tropical island of Phuket.
Indeed, there have been times when Parsons, who has been married to his Japanese wife Yuriko for 20 years, considered leaving Britain.
"A few years ago my wife and I talked about moving to Japan, but we were in quite a bad earthquake in Tokyo five years ago.
"We were on the 38th floor of the Conrad Hotel. The sliding door of the bathroom just started going backwards and forwards. It was very scary.
"My wife grew up with earthquakes and I've been going there for 20 years. Earthquakes are usually just a little shudder. Our daughter, Jasmine, was three at the time and was incredibly calm but we were frightened.
"When it stopped, my wife said, 'We're never living here'. But her dad's dying of lung cancer and as she gets older, there's the call of home."
The book, however, is more of a tribute to his father, Victor, a former Royal Naval Commando who felt disillusioned about the life offered to him on his return to Britain after serving his country.
"Catching The Sun doesn't represent my life in London - it's more like my dad," says Parsons. "The hero's done everything he was meant to do, he's grafted and yet everything is taken away from him. It all came from my dad's experience."
When the author was a child, the Parsons family nearly moved to Australia because of his father's disillusionment, but his mother wouldn't leave her mother.
"My dad was more than a tough guy, he was a killer. It made civilian life very difficult for him. By the time he was 20, the commando life was over. He was very disappointed in the life that was left for him after World War Two.
"Both my parents had low-paid jobs - he was a greengrocer, she was a dinner lady - and he felt that surely there should be more to life than that. He didn't believe he had returned to a land fit for heroes."
His father died from cancer before Parsons achieved success with Man And Boy and went on to repeat it with One For My Baby and Stories We Could Tell.
Victor had seen his son go through the trauma of the breakdown of his first marriage to the writer Julie Burchill, whom he met while working on NME and with whom he has a son, Robert.
Parsons became a single father for 10 years and his parents provided much of the support he needed.
"It really hurt me in ways that I wasn't prepared to acknowledge for years," he has said. "But you don't get endless chances. One of the things that's wrong with our culture is that people think you can always try again, there's always a new family, a new love, more children, and you don't value what you have."
These days, he lives a quiet life with Yuriko and Jasmine, but doesn't see much of Robert, 32, who is now a professional gambler living in Billericay, Essex.
"He goes his own way and he doesn't ask me for money. I love him and he loves me. Of course I want him to have a happy life but I've got a nine-year-old to bring up."
While Parsons has now written eight novels, his debut Man And Boy, published in 1999, remains the one which has sold the most. But he isn't frustrated by that, he insists.
"It's an impossible act to follow. I know I've written better books. I'm a better writer than I was 12 years ago but at the same time I understand that it touched something. It was a song that a lot of people could understand."
He's now working on the next book, a contemporary detective story introducing a new character, Victor Logan, which he hopes will become a series. And he always likes to end on an optimistic note.
"I believe in the healing power of happy endings," he says. "And Catching The Sun feels like a lucky book to me."

Thanks for giving it a chance. For whatever it's worth, I think tonight's episode is even better and that the show continues to mature throughout the season.ReplyDelete
I am very much looking forward to your thoughts on all of them (that goes for your readers as well).
I keep missing that show because I'm stuck at work until after it airs. I know there's some supreme irony in there somewhere; I'm just too tired to find it.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousSeptember 24, 2008 10:17 AM
What do you think about the PD and the PA sleeping together while they're trying cases? That's the part that irritates me. I know there has to be some sex in the show, and maybe it makes the PD an interesting "contradiction" but it's irritating nonetheless. At least they were nice enough to put it all on hold during their big murder trial.ReplyDelete

Classic Memorial Auditorium Concert Tickets — It Cost WHAT to See WHO?!
In 1986, I told my mom that I was sleeping over my friend Jay's house so I could wait out all night to buy tickets to Van Halen's show at the Niagara Falls Convention Center. It was the first tour with new lead singer Sammy Hagar, and we were all jammin' "Why Can't This Be Love" in our boom boxes on a daily basis. I made $80 a week working at Burger King, so shelling out $25 to see Van Halen was kind of a big deal. I ended up getting 17th row. That same ticket today would have cost me about $250.
How to Ruin the 'Justice League' Movie — Cast Ben Affleck
Getty Images/DC Comics What are the people at Warner Bros. thinking? After the success of 'The Avengers,' there was no doubt that DC Comics had to respond with their own supergroup of superheroes, and the 'Justice League' fits the bill. But to put Ben Affleck at the helm and actually let him act in the movie -- are they insane?!
Could You Live Without the Buffalo Bills? [POLL]
Roger Goodell isn't exactly guaranting that the Buffalo Bills will stay in Western New York, even if they negotiate a new lease. Charles Schumer will give a stump speech in front of Ralph Wilson stadium today saying he has a plan to keep the team here long term, but the timing is weird considering Schumer has not taken part in any negotiations between Erie County and the Bills so far. The reality is we could lose the Bills. Are you ready for that contingency?

If you haven't read my open love letter to Jessica Pare, turns out there was perfectly good reason for the Mad Men actress to be in Buffalo last Thursday for the Jesus and Mary Chain show...
'Mad Men' Actress Jessica Pare Shows Up in Buffalo — Zoobie Zoobie Zoo! [PICTURE]
I'm not a fan of the Jesus and Mary Chain, even though they are a huge deal to alternative rock fans, but business picked up when Mad Men actress Jessica Paré showed up backstage. I was too shy to press her for details of what she was doing in Buffalo -- my best guess is that she is dating the tour manager, because she was canoodling with him prior to the band going on stage -- and all I could say was "Holy crap, that's the chick from Mad Men."

Hi again,
I will be willing to do the the first three exams--#40952100, #40952200, #40952300--
(total of 40 questions) for the value you assigned. Let me know if this is agreeable.
Hi Chris,
Ok, that was 70$ right?
But i already added 10$ more for the additional questions, if you can also answer this
Which i wrote above,
I will add more 10$ so i will pay you 20$ for this exam.
ok, then, just do the first three exams--#40952100, #40952200, #40952300--70$ as we both agreed the price.
thanks chris, i will wait for it~
Hi Chris, once again thanks for the helps, i have 80$ in my account as said i will add 10$ to make it 90$, but for some reason, i cant find the edit price, s instead, i will give you 20$ bunos plus the 80$ so, 100$ all in all. Looking forward to have your service again..
Hi Chris, I posted another questions, this time it needs to provide codes, so i am just hoping maybe you can take a look at it, and let me know if you can do it. I am willing to raise the amount if its possible for you to do it.
Thanks, and let me know asap.
These questions are including from the multiple choices that you answered, this is also part of Medical coding 2, and these quiz are taken from my Clinical Coding Workout book.

For earlier history of the area, including Czechoslovakia, see Czechoslovak region, history of.
The Slovak Republic came into being on Jan. 1, 1993, following the dissolution of the Czechoslovak federation. The new prime minister, Vladimír Mečiar, and his Czech counterpart, Václav Klaus, had been among the strongest proponents of separation, but their enthusiasm did not extend to the general populace. Although a renewed sense of national pride welled up in Slovakia, so, too, did a feeling of apprehension about the republic's future. This sense of uneasiness was manifested in the large numbers of Slovaks who began applying for Czech citizenship immediately after partition.
Slovakia generally had been perceived as the junior partner in the federation, but that arrangement also had provided the republic with a degree of political security and economic stability that became less certain with independence. Long-standing political differences and tensions with neighbouring countries that had been suppressed during the period of Soviet hegemony reemerged; notable among these were Hungary's concerns about the future of the large Hungarian minority in southern Slovakia. In addition, economic forecasts for Slovakia generally were less optimistic than those for the Czech Republic. Slovakia inherited an economy dependent on large-scale but obsolete heavy industry, and the country faced rising unemployment and poor prospects for foreign investment. Furthermore, since Czechs had long dominated the federal leadership of Czechoslovakia, the Slovak regional leaders lacked experience at the national level.
In February 1993 Michal Kováč, the deputy chairman of the Movement for a Democratic Slovakia (Hnutie Za Democratické Slovensko; HZDS), became president of the republic. Difficulties immediately arose in maintaining a coalition government, with the result that the HZDS and the rather autocratic figure of Mečiar tended to dominate. Mečiar favoured a brand of populist nationalism that left Slovakia's minorities at a disadvantage. Neither was he overly interested in forging alliances with western Europe nor in tolerating dissenting voices from the opposition parties. In March 1994 Mečiar lost a vote of confidence and was forced to resign. A new five-party interim coalition headed by a new prime minister, Jozef Moravčík, adopted a policy of closer alignment with western Europe.
In the September 1994 elections, however, the HZDS regained power, and Mečiar was reinstalled as prime minister, forming in mid-December a coalition composed of the HZDS, the right-wing Slovak National Party, and the leftist Association of Workers of Slovakia. Once back in office, Mečiar attempted to recentralize state authority by blocking further privatization of state-owned companies. In addition, the rivalry between Mečiar and Kováč, who had never seen eye to eye, deepened. The Mečiar government's stance toward Slovakia's minorities and its tenuous commitment to democratic principles did not go unnoticed by the international community, and in March 1995, under pressure from Western powers, Slovakia and Hungary signed the Treaty of Friendship and Cooperation, in which the Slovak government pledged to protect minority rights. The commitment was called into question, however, when in November the government made Slovak the republic's official language, a move that caused great consternation among the nation's Hungarian minority. The Hungarian government declared the policy to be in violation of the treaty. Throughout 1996 there was increasing concern over the Mečiar government's antidemocratic direction, which included a so-called antisubversion law that would curb freedom of expression, which Kováč refused to sign. The law later passed in an amended form.
In June 1997 a European Union–Slovakia parliamentary committee made it clear that, in order for Slovakia to qualify for EU membership, the government would have to make adjustments in its policy toward the opposition and its treatment of minorities. Kováč and Mečiar agreed to the stipulations in October. However, at an EU summit held in December, it became evident that Slovakia would not be among the first wave of former Soviet-bloc countries admitted to the union.
During the early part of 1998, several attempts to elect a new president failed, and on March 2, when Kováč's term expired, a number of presidential duties devolved to Mečiar, in accordance with the Slovak constitution. Mečiar immediately made several unilateral decisions that clearly benefited his own interests. His actions, condemned by the EU and the United States, spawned a series of protests in Slovakia. The country remained without a president for much of the year. Parliamentary elections held in September resulted in the removal of the HZDS from power. A four-party coalition composed of the centre-right Slovak Democratic Coalition, the Party of the Democratic Left, the centre-left Party of Civic Understanding, and the Party of the Hungarian Coalition took over the reins of government, with Mikuláš Dzurinda, the chairman of the Slovak Democratic Coalition, as prime minister.
Mečiar offered his name as a presidential candidate in the election held on May 29, 1999, but he was defeated decisively by Rudolf Schuster, a member of the Carpathian-German minority and the chairman of the Party for Civic Understanding. The new ruling coalition declared its intention to ready the country for membership in the EU and NATO, to take measures to halt environmental degradation, and to crack down on organized crime, which had become an increasingly worrisome problem in the latter part of the 1990s. The coalition also introduced a wide-ranging austerity program intended to arrest Slovakia's economic decline. The program met with a wave of protests and strikes but was favourably received by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), which Slovakia joined in 2000.
Political difficulties continued into the 21st century; however, the economy began to turn around, and the government continued the privatization of state-owned industries. After parliamentary elections in 2002, Dzurinda retained his post as prime minister. The new centre-right ruling coalition approved additional economic and social reforms but lost its parliamentary majority in 2003. The year 2004 was a momentous one, as the country joined both NATO and the EU. Ivan Gašparovič of the Slovak Democratic and Christian Union Movement for Democracy party defeated Mečiar in the presidential election that year, and the economy continued to grow. Parliamentary elections in 2006 resulted in yet another coalition of ruling parties, with the leader of the populist party Smer, Robert Fico, becoming prime minister. Fico promised to fortify social welfare programs.
Slovakia did not escape the global economic downturn that began in 2008, but public support for Prime Minister Fico remained high, thanks partly to Slovakia's adoption of the euro at the beginning of 2009. It was the second country in the former communist bloc (after Slovenia) to do so. That April, Gašparovič defeated Iveta Radičová, of the Slovak Democratic and Christian Union, to be reelected president. Following the June 2010 parliamentary elections, however, a four-party centre-right coalition government emerged, with Radičová replacing Fico as prime minister. Radičová was the first woman to serve in that post.

You can make an argument that residents of California are getting screwed by the government on a daily basis. This is a good way to turn people off, and give them the impression you don't have the vocabulary to properly express your ideas.

Thanks for this editorial. The SJ Mercury News has done a good job of editorializing on this topic as well. It's a very good idea to make "last-minute deviousness" more difficult. I hope Sen. Mark Wyland is successful in his effort to require sunshining of (all presumably non-disaster relief/emergency) bills at least 72 hours before a vote.
Don't miss out on the discussion!

Disposition of Body Remains in Iowa
A recent Iowa Supreme Court case from September 2007 highlighted the issue that can arise. In the Stark case, a dispute arose over where to bury poor Mr. Stark's body. Mr. Stark had been buried for some time in a plot with his first wife, when his second wife decided that his particular location wasn't the best. So Mrs. "Second Wife" has the body disinterred and reburied at another location. The adult children from the first marriage didn't take kindly to this and objected like any true American...by filing a lawsuit.
The Iowa Supreme Court eventually determined that the statute permitted the surviving spouse the ability to do just that. As a result, the adult children of Mr. Stark will have to wait until Mrs. "Second Wife" passes, at which time they can disinter poor ole dad-again-and move him back.
The Iowa Legislature is currently debating a change in the law. Currently, there are two bills under consideration with very different positions. A Des Moines Register article discusses the two bills, one which is supported by the Iowa State Bar Association and the other by the Iowa Funeral Directors Association. One bill, Senate File 473, enables the deceased individual to make those decisions for his/her body prior to death. The other bill, House File 2088, provides for an authorized list of individuals to make the decision for the deceased. The funeral directors claim that providing for an optional document places too much of a burden on them, as opposed to just applying a list.
While it may make the funeral director's job simpler for the bill backed by the funeral directors, the disposition of one's remains is truly one's final decision for their resting place and an extremely important matter for many people. Everyone should be entitled to choose what happens to their remains, not which is necessarily the simplest solution.

Childhood is universal and children's play is universal. Play is essential to every aspect of children's development: social, physical and cognitive, but it is still regarded by many as being of little importance.
Play fosters important social skills, including sharing, turn taking, and developing and consolidating friendships. It is an essential arena for the expression of children's feelings, anger, love and joy.
At the same time, children willingly engage in complex physical activity in a social environment they themselves create. A by-product of their energetic and tireless play is the enhancement of co-ordination, balance and a range of motors skills.
Play provides children with the opportunity to be in control and make their own choices, without the direction of adults. Young children spend most of their time playing and it is through play that children discover the world around them and have fun doing it! It is through imaginative and subversive play that children explore the world around them.
Physical skills of co-ordination, balance and fine motor control are acquired whilst mastering the intricacies of the new skills being learned through play. Rhymes, jokes and chants assist children to develop their language skills and enhance their memory.
Through traditional game playing children learn about the rules and values of their cultures. This is particularly significant for Australia's multicultural society where playing traditional games can be used to promote inter-cultural acceptance and understanding of others.
Games have been played in essentially the same way for thousands of years. Whilst every generation of young children imitates, and changes, the play of the older children they observe and admire, both time and differing cultures influence the universal features of children's play. Immigration, the media, and the accident of forgetting and invention all help shape and alter the game and verbal lore.
Play is part of everyone's heritage - play links past, present and future.

Bishop Canevin hockey team wraps up top seed in Class AA
For the second straight season, the Bishop Canevin hockey team is the best Class AA had to offer in the regular season.
The Crusaders wrapped up a 20-2 regular season by defeating Erie Cathedral Prep, 8-5. The Ramblers entered the Class Penguins Cup playoffs as the No. 2 seed.
"This game was great for us because they push us more than we have been pushed in a long time," Bishop Canevin coach Kevin Zielmanski said. "It also helped because we haven't seen them play since November. Now we got a look and can put things into the memory bank."
Cathedral Prep's Hunter Emerson scored 41 seconds into the game, but the lead didn't last long as Blaine Adams scored back-to-back goals and Thomas Krivak scored to give the Crusaders a 3-1 lead in the first period.
Bishop Canevin kept the pressure up and scored three goals in the first 10 minutes of the second half. Goals from Adams, Alec Bosnic and Jonathan Mulick kept the Ramblers at bay.
"This was a huge win for us because they we were one of our two losses," said senior forward Randy Unger, referencing a 5-4 overtime loss Nov. 11. "We really tightened up after the second period to get the win."
Unger finished as AA's regular-season scoring champion with 27 goals and 48 assists, beating Chartiers Valley's Anthony Franks (69 points) and Erie Cathedral Prep's Ben Eliason (62 points).
Unger is one of six seniors on the roster who are looking to end their careers the right way. Bishop Canevin won the Penguins Cup when they — including defensemen Brennan Adams, Gus Peponidis and Nicholas Rajakovich, forward Garrett Godlewski and goalie Nikita Meskin — were freshmen.
"We are a tight group," Unger said. "We all won a state title together. We know how to prepare and know there are no easy games. There will be no 10-0 wins like we have seen this season."
But for Zielmanski, getting wins by a couple of goals wouldn't be such a bad thing.
"This is my 16th year doing this," Zielmanski said. "I have lost in overtime in 11 of those seasons. I don't want to keep it close because the game could be decided by a bounce or a mistake. I don't want to be in that position.
"Hopefully these playoffs are more fun than nerve racking."
Canevin opened the playoffs with a showdown with North Hills on Monday. Results were unavailable at press time.
Chartiers Valley
The Colts finished in seventh place in Class AA with an 11-11 record.
Chartiers Valley defeated West Allegheny, 10-6, last week to snap a five-game losing streak the team had been on since Feb. 3.
The Colts played Erie Cathedral Prep in the opening round of the playoffs Monday. Results were unavailable at press time.

ROSSENDALE survived a second half fightback to keep their promotion charge right on course.
The match was switched to Sale Shark's training ground and it appeared it would be plain sailing for Dale as they ran in three converted tries – Paddy Pole, Leyton Taylor and Roger Dennison all touching down with Steve Nutt adding the extras.
Hartlepool ran in a try from fully 80m from a quick tap and go which was converted to make it 21-7 at the break.
The second half began well for Dale with Nutt slotting over a penalty to make it 24-7.
But Dale, playing in to the wind, were on the back foot for most of the half – not helped by Danny Collins's sin-binning.
Hartlepool replied with two unconverted tries and a penalty but Dale's fine defensive display late on denied the visitors the win.

Here is Tennessee's Butch Jones dancing
After Tennessee's practice on Saturday, Volunteers second-year coach Butch Jones took to the dance floor (or the dance field, whatever) to get his players #hyped and #amped and #otherenergydrinknames.
Coaches are all in such high spirits during spring practice. If only they could stay that way forever. It just goes to reinforce the old saying: Dance like nobody is watching, or like you are a coach.h/t Reddit

text: I watched 2 movies on netflix last night. Throughout both movies they would completely lose sound for 10-15 seconds at a time. The video stayed perfect though with no lag whatsoever. Does this sound like a glitch in the software or would it be possible to lose sound due to network issues? I've watched my atv everyday for about a week and haven't had any network issues at all. Any ideas??

Can you identify the one major economic issue that was all but ignored by both major parties (but not by Ron Paul) in the recent presidential election? I can…and it's not the so-called "fiscal cliff" problem currently being debated in Washington. It's the Federal Reserve's crazy monetary policy of repeated "quantitative easing" and extremely low interest rates.
Both President Obama and Governor Romney had several heated debates about taxes, government spending, deficits and government debt. They did not agree on almost anything but at least they recognized that these macro-economic fiscal policies were important in any serious analysis of unemployment and slow economic growth. Yet amazingly, both candidates steered miles clear of any serious criticism of the Fed's monetary policy over the last decade and especially since the recession of 2008. Politicians in both parties, apparently, have decided that the public should best remain blissfully ignorant of the unintended consequences of the Fed's "easy money" policy and it's corollary, near-zero interest rates for savers and investors.
Let's be absolutely clear. Federal Reserve monetary policy over the last decade has been entirely unprecedented in our economic history. There has never been a 10-year period where the central bank of the U.S. has expanded the money supply so enormously and never ever a 5 year period (2008-2012) where the Fed has kept interest rates at near-zero in real terms. (Real interest rates are nominal market rates minus the rate of inflation). And Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke's testimony before Congress and the recently released minutes of the last Fed Board of Governors meeting make it crystal clear that these unprecedented policies will be continued into the foreseeable future.
So what has the Fed been actually doing? Simply put, when the Fed purchases government securities in the open market it puts "new" money into the banking system and into the economy generally. This increase in the supply of money depresses market interest rates and normally tends to increase the value of financial assets like stocks and bonds, at least in the short run. Chairman Bernanke has justified a continuation of such policies by arguing that the current economic expansion is so fragile that business investment and the housing recovery can only be sustained by super-low interest rates.
Nonsense. The banks are already loaded with enough "excess reserves" on their balance sheets ($1.5 trillion at last count) to finance any legitimate economic recovery if only there were appropriate incentives to make profitable loans and investments. In addition, any further continuation of low interest rates will only fuel the sort of rampant price inflation and non-sustainable mal-investments (in housing and construction) that we all saw come crashing down in 2008. Why would we want to repeat that again? Finally, since there is no evidence that the Fed's policies actually work, why continue them? Memo to the Fed: Allow interest rates to adjust to free market levels.
Actually the most important reason that the Fed is keeping interest rates artificially low (a reason that Chairman Bernanke dare not share publicly) is that the Federal Government itself would likely go broke attempting to finance its massive annual borrowing and refunding of debt if interest rates were sharply higher. Those who assert that the Federal Government could never default on its debt obligations should explain how the government could possibly rollover old debt or fund massive new annual deficits if interest rates were, say, 7% or higher. Ironically, perhaps, sharply higher interest rates would curb government deficit spending faster than all of the hot air "negotiations" coming out of Washington these days.
Let's face it: The current Federal Reserve policy of quantitative easing props up the value of government securities and subsidizes U.S. borrowing and it does this at the expense of working and retired people who will continue to earn next to nothing on their bank savings accounts and CDs. This policy is inefficient and immoral and it should end. In addition, some economists believe (with good reason) that the U.S. Treasuries market has now become the biggest asset bubble in financial history. If and when it crashes, it will make the so-called "fiscal cliff" problem look like a walk in the park.

It takes 7 hours for Will to paint a house. Judy can paint the same house in 3 hours.
How long will it take them to paint the house if they work together?
in 21 hours, they will paint 3+7=10 houses.
rate:10/21 houses/hr
If it takes one person 5 hours to paint a room and another person 3 hours, how long will it take to paint the room working together?
1--A can paint a room in 5 hours.
2--B can paint a room in 3 hours.
3--A's rate of painting is 1 room per A hours (5 hours) or 1/A (1/5) room/hour.
4--B's rate of painting is 1 room per B hours (3 hours) or 1/B (1/3) room/hour.
5--Their combined rate of painting is therefore 1/A + 1/B = (A+B)/AB = (1/5 + 1/3) = (8/15) rooms /hour.
6--Therefore, the time required for both of them to paint the 1 room working together is 1 room/(A+B)/AB rooms/hour = AB/(A+B) = 5(3)/(5+3) = 15/8 hours = 1 hour-52.5 minutes.
Note - Generally speaking (if the derivation is not specifically required), if it takes one person A units of time and another person B units of time to complete a specific task working alone, the time it takes them both to complete the task working together is T = AB/(A + B), where AB/(A + B) is one half the harmonic mean of the individual times, A and B.
You might like to derive the equivalant expression involving 3 people working alone and together which results in T = ABC/(AB + AC + BC).

Chntpw is a windows SAM password recovery utility. In BT4 R2 it can be found in Kmenu>Backtrack>Privilege Escalation>PasswordAttacks. There are two minor issues with it on BT4R2:
In the kmenu entry, the path is wrong, it is /pentestpasswords/chntpw/chntpw instead of /pentest/passwords/chntpw/chntpw. Just a missing forward-slash between pentest and password.. probably just a typo.
It is also not in root's PATH variable.
It is very easy to fix both of these errors:
for the kmenu typo just right click on the entry, then "Edit Item" and add the missing "/" in the "Command:" field.
for the PATH variable problem just add it manually withThese are not BIG problems but when I use chntpw I'm usually booting off the liveUSB on a windows computer, and I have to fix these every time (at least the PATH thing)Code:PATH=$PATH:/pentest/passwords/chntpw/
I hope this is fixed in the next release

'I'd love to if they're going to do it. I'm not going to walk away from that,' the star of Dan Brown's novels adaptation says when talking about the third possible 'Da Vinci Code' movie.
Tom Hanks has recently opened wide the possibility of him returning as symbolist Robert Langdon should the third "The Da Vinci Code" movie, "The Lost Symbol", is developed. Talking to MTV at the red carpet of "Where the Wild Things Are" premiere, the 53-year-old actor said, "I'd love to if they're going to do it."
"I'm not going to walk away from that...," the two-time Academy Award-winner continued. "If they make it again, I hope they ask me. If they didn't, what did I do wrong?" On what revives his interest, he revealed that he has just finished reading the latest of the Dan Brown's novel series. He gushed, "Page-turner. Dan Brown knows how to weave a tale. I was exhausted by the end of it."
Talking about the adaptation series, Hanks shared, "They're incredibly fun movies to make and I think they're really fun movies to watch too." He additionally explained, "They're like very intricate, very dangerous, steroid-pumped scavenger hunts and I think everyone likes to be in on the clues and the trail and the signs."
Tom Hanks was last seen as Robert Langdon in "Angels & Demons". Released on May 15 this year, the sequel to "The Da Vinci Code" has raked in as much as $485.9 million worldwide. The thriller movie sees Langdon dealing with deadly threat toward Vatican done by an ancient secret brotherhood called the Illuminati.

text: Hello, So mentally tired from this task. I have been trying an array of solutions to get subtitles in some of my movies for iTunes. I am using MakeMKV to make mkvs from Bluray discs, which i include all the subtitles for that title. I have tried iMKVextract to pull the SUP files from it. This provides me with SUP files that are not recognized by bdsup2sub, saying the stream is not a recognized stream. Currently, I am trying to extract the SUP subtitles in VMWare using MKVextract in Windows, since that has generally given me better results, but I started the extraction at 10pm last night and only 67% had been extracted this morning! I have also tried the opposite side of things, using Submerge to add SRT versions of the subtitles. The problem is when you export to flattened file, the subtitles do not show up in itunes (even after turning on CC and checking to see if the subtitles are available in the Audio/Subtitles drop down). I could also add the subtiles through Subler, but that is not burned in and I don't care for how ATV renders the subs. Any suggestions beyond this? I really truly appreciate and suggestions, or maybe a new piece of software that could simply burn the SRT file to the movie without an entire re-encode. Thanks!

Presentation by Dr. George A. Dorsey
Dr. George A. Dorsey of the Field Museum of Natural History, Chicago, presented this paper as part of the public forum held on Tuesday evening. Dorsey strongly argues for the central place of investigation and research in advancing scientific endeavors at museums. In doing so, he raises some controversial points that are still applicable today in discussions of the aims of museums. Dorsey provides quite different perspectives than those advanced by Dr. George Brown Goode, assistant secretary at the Smithsonian Institution.
The function of any institution, especially of a public museum, must be determined to a certain extent by circumstances. There are, however, certain fundamental principles which, it sees to me, are applicable to museums in general. First and foremost it should be the aim of the museum to promote the advancement of the subject, whether it be art or science, which is embraced within the scope of the museum. By advancement I mean not so much what is commonly understood as the diffusion of knowledge, as the advancement which results from new investigation. I believe that it is the duty, and should be the aim of every institution, to undertake as much investigation as possible.
In the second place, the aim of the museum must be determined by the requirements, not of the present day, but of future generations, for an institution, especially any museum of wide range, which attempts to adapt itself to the supposed present requirements of any community will find that it has largely surrendered its power for investigation; above all it will find that it cannot adequately serve such a requirement, inasmuch as from the very nature of the attempt its exhibi halls must always be in a transient condition.
We may say then that the aim of the museum, so far as its exhibit series is concerned, should not be addressed primarily to the supposed needs of a community, but that it should be governed in its exhibit of material by the desire to present the universal facts or laws of its science which will be of the widest possible application.
In other words, its aim must be, both in its laboratories and in its public halls, to promote the discovery and the exemplification of the fundamental principles of the subject or division represented; and these principles, of course, are the same for whatsoever branch of science the museum may be devoted, whether it be ethnology, geology, fine arts, or history, for, as all science is one in its methods, the general principles which govern the aims of a scientific institution must be the same.
So much for the general principles, which in my estimation are applicable to museums of whatsoever nature. One or two points of minor importance may be considered. You are all familiar with G. Brown Goode's words so often quoted: "An efficient, educational museum may be described as a collection of instructive labels, each illustrated by a well-selected specimen." A museum arranged on this plan may, in my estimation, be efficient and may be educational, but it would not necessarily be scientific, and it certainly would not have general public interest. It seems to me that the conscious striving to make the public museum educational, defeats the object of the museum and causes it thereby to surrender a very much higher function.
Still another statement of Goode's seems in this connection worthy of a moment's notice, namely, that, in which he defines a museum as "an institution for the preservation of those objects which best illustrate the phenomena of nature and the works of man, and the utilization of these for the increase of knowledge and for the culture and enlightenment of the people." This definition of a museum may have seemed adequate twenty years ago, but an institution which today states as its primary aim the preservation of objects is foredestined to mediocrity. This is preeminently true of certain departments of science such as ethnology and paleontology. I single out these two departments of science because of them it is, as I have said, especially true, that their function is not the preservation of specimens so much as it is obtaining them; and this, of course, is simply a preliminary step to their study, from which is to follow the generalizations representing fundamental biological principles. In still another place Goode states as the function of a museum, "the preservation and utilization of objects of nature and the works of art and industry"; and to this I must again insist that the importance thus attached to the preservation of objects as the special function of a museum is against the highest welfare of any great institution, and that especially it relegates the true function of a museum to the background.
While not bearing specifically upon the chief aim or function of a museum, there is still another matter that seems to me worthy of consideration. This has to do with the storage of material. I suppose that every museum administrator has no difficulty in conceiving good theoretical grounds for the storage of large amounts of material, but I believe the general principle of storage, except in special instances, is bad, and even often vicious. My chief reason for this statement is based upon the fact that storage material tends to deteriorate; especially does it lose much of its vitality. This is to a large extent unavoidable, and the explanation for the reason thereof is a psychological one. My experience is that storage material is not examined, and that so-called "study collections" are not studied; and, except in a very few instances, I doubt greatly whether science has been advanced to the extent of the price of the bottles, to say nothing of the cost of the alcohol, for all the rows and rows of jars of fishes and snakes which are to be found in almost every museum which even dabbles in natural history. Certainly an examination of the so-called study collections of storage material of ethnology generally reveals a sad state of affairs. It seems to me that too often the museum curator assumes the attitude of the farmer, who, unable to throw anything away, hoards everything up with the expectation that some day it will be of use. Specimens in themselves are not sacred. Their value lies not in themselves, but in the light they throw upon the great problems of the universe, biological or otherwise.
I may state in conclusion that I consider the chief aim of a museum the advancement of science. This is its function; it must not go to the public; it must lead. Science is but a description and is always simple and easily understood if properly presented. This does not imply that a casual visitor will grasp the principles of any science by a visit of an hour or so in any museum; this does not necessarily follow any more than that one should understand astronomy from a few visits to an observatory.
The promotion, the advancement of science in the laboratory, and the writing in large letters of the laws of science, this should be the aim of every public museum.

Staff are generally excellent; Hillary at Anchor Point restaurant was a particular stand-out. The food and decor in the restaurant were also very good. The hotel's obvious great selling point is its location, and the view from the lounge and roof-deck. Well worth paying the premium for a water-view room! The room itself was a bit cluttered with cutesy furnishings that were entertaining but not terribly functional. There was no real closet. Who cares, though, when you step out onto the balcony and see those waves crashing into the shore.

Don't believe everything you see in the movies. Sin City isn't always about bad behavior – it's also one of the top spots in the world to celebrate monumental events ranging from company partnerships and conferences to weddings and beyond!
For big events, finding reliable drivers and automobiles is difficult. Until now.
NTS Limo has an enormous fleet of vehicles and professional drivers that are awaiting your next Vegas vacation. Here are three events that often require renting a limousine:
- Bachelor(ette) Parties – First of all, congratulations on your engagement. Secondly – time to celebrate!
Chances are if you recently proposed to your significant other, wedding planning is about to be in full force. This also includes bachelor(ette) party planning. Once you lock down a time and place for your nuptials, stay ahead of the game by refining a list of places to go (and people to bring) for the bridge/groom's final hoorah before the big day.
Our recommendation: Las Vegas, NV. Are you shocked that we are aligned with our hometown? Bachelor(ette) parties are great in Vegas because there is always something to do. Reserve a ride with NTS Limo to guarantee your party transportation all night (or weekend) long.
- Weddings – To build off of our previous suggestion, the wedding itself is a great reason to rent a luxurious limousine. Many people combine their bachelor(ette) party with their wedding and honeymoon in the same week to make things easy and affordable. LTS Limo supports love, lovers and lovely occasions, so we take pride in driving you everywhere you want to go.

The Top Five
1. Brey Walker, Southmoore (Okla.)
Walker is a prospect with a scary upside. Unusually big and strong at a young age he burst onto the national recruiting radar. Fast forward and Walker has showed continued strides as a prospect. Setting the edge as a tackle he has the strength and foot quickness to set or hold the edge. He runs well and looks great carrying what is now likely over 300 pounds of weight. He has continued to show and develop a mean streak for finishing blocks and playing with a sustained level of aggression. He understands how to use his leverage to gain the upper hand. He is committed to Oklahoma.
2. Darrell Simpson, Justin (Texas) Northwest
Simpson is just a monster. He plays like a player who has always been big as he just seems to understand his body and how he is able to use it to outmaneuver defenders to clear lanes for ball carriers. If he gets his shoulders squared up he is not going to be moved backwards and he is strong enough to drive the defenders five yards off the line of scrimmage creating havoc as linebackers try to fill lanes to get to the football. He will need to continue to develop his technique and footwork to be counted on to protect the blindside but he his ceiling should be considered as a blue-chipper with left tackle potential. Already well over 300 pounds, so size and mass will not be a concern. Offers from schools like LSU, Ohio State, Oklahoma, TCU, and Texas A&M.
3. Rafiti Ghirmai, Frisco (Texas) Wakeland
Ghirmai is a top-tier offensive line prospect in the state of Texas' 2018 recruiting class. He possesses an adequate frame for the tackle spot at the Power Five conference level. He's fairly athletic relative to his position and has a big reach that should give him a high ceiling as a pass-blocker. Ghirmai could potentially prove position-versatile at the next level as well. He can play a bit high at times and his hand placement lacks consistency, but all the physical tools are there for Ghirmai, who thrives in the run game and owns the requisite traits to become a well-rounded high-major O-lineman. Offers from Alabama, Florida, Georgia, LSU, Ohio State, Texas, Texas A&M, UCLA, and many more.
4. Colten Blanton, Cypress (Texas) Ranch
Blanton is a big-framed offensive tackle prospect who's among the top O-linemen in Texas for the 2018 class. He's an excellent run-game asset thanks to his strength and quickness off the ball. His ceiling is high as a pass-protector because of his height, length, and overall frame potential. Blanton is committed to Texas A&M.
5. Owen Condon, Oklahoma City (Okla.) Bishop Mcguinness
Condon is an offensive lineman who plays with a chip on his shoulder. He is massive, but light enough on his feet that he can stay in front of smaller, quicker, and more agile defenders. He has a strong initial punch and when his hands are locked in he will control the defender or move him out of he way. He is a strong run blocker on tape and he will fire off the ball and clear out lanes. He has a plus in the size category and could have some position flexibility. He currently has offers from schools like Arizona State, Arkansas, Georgia, Oklahoma State, and TCU.
The Best of the Rest
6. Connor Galvin, Katy (Texas)
7. Reese Moore, Seminole (Texas)
8. Mike Ruth, Coppell (Texas)
9. Casey Phillips, Franklin (Texas)
