Vernon 29, 73
Ipswich boss Jim Magilton blasted his side after a wasteful performance against lowly Colchester - who capitalised with two goals from super Scott Vernon.
Magilton watched as his side missed a hatful of chances in the final game to be played between these local rivals at Layer Road - and his defence was given the runaround by Kevin Lisbie and Vernon who struck in both halves.
The Irishman also vented his frustration towards referee Andy D'Urso for denying his side a penalty when Alan Lee was bundled over in the box at the start of the second half.
Magilton said: "It was a definite penalty, had it happened outside the box, the ref would have given a foul.
"But when you don't take your chances it comes back to haunt you and defensively we were poor."
Colchester move to a new ground next season and seem certain to start it in League One - but Vernon's finishing gave them a temporary boost.
His first, in the 29th minute, was taken expertly. Following good work from Lisbie, Vernon waltzed by two defenders and slotted the ball past Stephen Bywater.
The second, on 73 minutes, came from a mixup in the Ipswich defence, leaving Vernon clear to blast a shot in off a post.
Colchester boss Geraint Williams said: "Scott is the best finisher here and will score a lot of goals for us.
"We have not given the fans enough this season, but today's result was for them."

With a simple hand drill and a small drill bit, you can just drill out the stock nut (takes about 2 minutes). It's not some super hardened item. Also, if you do safety wire it, then go ahead and loctite it.
As for the valve retainers, it's a matter of time when someone will break one. I just broke one at Lime Rock and the last time that happened was in 2005. On the other hand, every engine rebuild I do, the car gets brand new retainers, springs and valves (the old ones go right in the garbage). I guess fate caught up with me. I know other teams that had plenty of failures but they were just reusing the old retainers. Since we have to run the stock stuff, I just change out the parts more often. Since the retainers are dirt cheap, it's cheap insurance (same for the springs and valves).
When we ran the Z3's with the 2.8l motor, we used to rev them to 7500. They broke retainers all of the time and GA let us run an aftermarket one. Then the problem was solved. With the 330, they put the kabosh on that.
My suggestion would be to change out the seals, valves, springs and retainers when you decide to pull the head for a rebuild. Also, the new valves are ready to use, no machining necessary.

Facebook has started to roll out a new file-sharing capability -- and Dropbox shouldn't be the only worried party. The addition of a low-security file-sharing tool to the world's most popular social networking site could open a world of security pain on businesses and home users alike.
Facebook's new file-sharing feature enables members of Facebook Groups to upload and download files as large as 25MB, with only two file-type restrictions: no music files (such as MP3s) and no executables (files ending with ".exe"). Beyond that, everything is fair game. Facebook won't police the file swap either; it's entirely up to users to report content that's pirated or dangerous. Additionally, there are no security controls for permitting limited or full access, as you might find on Dropbox.
Facebook's descions to restrict the sharing of music files is curious, to say the least. Music companies may applaud the restriction, as it means Facebook users won't be able to readily swap pirated tunes. However, it also means that members of a Facebook music group won't be able to to share samples with fellow band members -- or a new track with their followers. Meanwhile, users will still be able to freely exchange other potentially pirated digital materials, such as e-books, digital comics, and videos. In other words, the restriction appears to have little to do with protecting musicians' intellectual property. It also means Facebook isn't introducing competition to its tight integration with Spotify.
Facebook's security case for restricting .exe files is easier to swallow, but it's hard to take seriously. Sure, it will keep cyber criminals from uploading executable malware files for would-be victims to download and open, but there's nothing to stop bad guys uploading a tantalizing, malware-infected PDF files or Word documents to a group for marks to download.
The fact that file-sharing is limited only to Facebook Groups isn't much of a security measure either. Facebook Groups are a snap to create and to join. In fact, the site lets users add their friends to groups without the need for consent. A cyber criminal would need only create a fake profile (perhaps one featuring a photo of a scantily clad female), join any number of groups, and upload infected PDF files with tantalizing, targeted names ("10 ways to advance in Game X" or "Newest script for TV Show Y") for users to download and open.
Organization with users who access Facebook already face potential security threats, as the site is a haven for cyber criminals to exploit end-user ignorance, duping them into clicking links to phishing and malware sites. This feature lets bad guys present infected files on a platter to the supposed safety of Facebook -- giving them a convenient means of duping users into infecting their machines via a platform over which IT admins have no real control.

One Goal Closer To Changing The World
If I could earn a living doing what I love the most, it would be helping people. As long as I can remember I've always wanted to work in the medical field. What I'd actually do has always been the challenge. Similar to most 5 year olds I wanted to become a doctor and like many 6 year old girls with dolls, I wanted to be a nurse, but as long as I can remember it had to be something that ensured I'd be helping and serving individuals.
The medical field will help me to change the world because it would allow me contribute towards getting people in the best care and shape they possibly can.
My biggest dream is to be able to build hospitals in third world countries all over the world for people who are less fortunate. To ensure that I fulfill my life goals, I have already decided to pursue a bachelor degree in Nursing. After becoming a nurse I would have already had the care part intact. The building of the hospitals will be the challenge but since all things are possible with God, I plan to work extremely hard, use connections that will allow me to work with businesses and raise money to acquire the funding needed to get the job completed. In order to make this dream a reality, I am willing to work to the best of my ability using my knowledge, talents and skills to ensure all my goals are achieved.

Ask PoopReport: How Much Paper Per Poop?
Editor's note: Click here to download the final report.
Dear PoopReport,
I am in the middle of a two-year sponsored research project -- "Waste Transport in Pipe Systems Served by Ultra-Low Flush Water Closets" -- and one of our project deliverables is the development and testing of a solid waste substitute. We have a test rig at our lab with four different pipes (cast iron and PVC) that can be set at different slopes and are 100 feet long. We are mounting tank-type water closets to these pipes and will be flushing "waste substitutes."
So that the tests are consistent and repeatable, we are not using anything that can easily break apart or degrade. This means none of the "real poop." Our sponsor had a chemist develop some silicon samples, but they had such a tacky surface that they stuck to the walls of the pipe so securely that we had to take the pipes apart to retrieve the samples.
It quickly became apparent that to model the real stuff, we needed to know something about volume and mass. This is proving to be much more difficult than we ever thought. My grad student has been over in our med school library for over two weeks, and we can tell you all kinds of stuff about healthy poo, chemical analysis of poo, what health poo should look like, etc.
We have just recently (last week) come across some European work that says the "average" poop is 125 grams and about 500 ml in volume. That is the kind of data that we can use to develop our lab poop. We can make some assumptions about number of pieces, and the density, volume, mass data tell us how 'heavy" the pieces need to be.
It also occurred to us that, for modern, developed countries, it is normal to have paper going down the WC with the poop. That is the reason I was looking for some kind of reference out there for paper data.
So now, any help/ideas from Dave at PoopReport? I am still trying to verify, within a range, the 125-gram and 0.5-liter poop. And I have just started on the hunt for paper use data. There are some humor sites out there, but I am in need of some good data and not made up. Thought I would give you a try!!
Thanks for any help,

PoopReporters, we are being called upon in the name of science. The question: how many squares per wipes, and how many wipes per poop?
113 Comments on "Ask PoopReport: How Much Paper Per Poop?"
Now thats a question and a half.
I guess its all down to whether you're a "folder" or a "scruncher".
As a "folder" I use two squares in one wipe. On average three wipes per poop. Making a total of six sheets in one visit.
I'll be interested to see how everyone else does :o)
I always wipe three times out of habit. How many squares do I use...is hard to determine. I'm a scruncher, I roll the toilet paper until i get a good chunk in my hand to wipe with. If I had to guess, maybe 5-6 squares per bunch...so anywhere between maybe 15-20 squares per wipe.
Scrunching does make it hard to estimate the number of sqares. Of course the quality of the paper is also a factor in this. As a broad average over low-quality 1-ply and plush 2-py, I'd say 4-5 squares with 2-3 wipes. So probably about 12 squares per flush for "average" TP.
Make that a 635 gram 2.8 liter poop with some squeels of agony and sighs of relief.
No paper here, strictly corncobs.
I'm a scruncher and really I haven't a clue. On 1 ply I just grab what I can, 2 ply, the norm, I use about a foot of TP, and in a recently discovered 2 ply that seems like it should be called 3 ply, I used about 5 sheets.
Folder here. I would say I 5 to 6 squares per wipe. 2 to 3 wipes per occurance.
I'm a scruncher and I use as many as it takes to get clean. Sometimes that's only a few sheets but if it's been a sticky job it can be up to a dozen.
I scrunch and wipe probably 6-7 sqaures. I wipe til I am clean as a whislte. No exact number there.
I'm a scruncher--the average scrunch for me is about 1 foot to 18 inches of paper (regardless of thickness). How many times this gets repeated depends on consistency & sticking power.
At my college, they use the cheapo TP that's only .000000001" thick, plus there's no perforations. This makes it hard for me to estimate how many "squares" I have to use, but I estimate that I have to use at least a few feet worth per duker. But that's a skewed figure, due to the ungodly thin-ness of our TP. Wish I could help more, but that's all for now.
Well its good to see our tax dollars at work up there at A&M...3 sheets for me.
I'm a "scruncher", although try to keep the volume of the TP as low as I can in order to avoid clogging the toilet. I don't buy that thick quilted TP even though it feels nice -- it's too thick to use in our wussy toilet. I wipe until I'm clean, which is usually three times, and I estimate I use about 5-7 squares of TP per wipe, so 15-21 total.
It really does depend on the brand of TP, however. Cheap stuff is thinner. The "double-ply" quilted stuff, like Charmin, is impossible to flush if you use even a modest amount, and I prefer to not get poo on my hands when I wipe!
The toilets at my workplace, however, could suck a golf ball through a straw, so I'm somewhat more liberal with my TP use there.
I don't know how many sheets are in a roll, but I can say this. I usually go through a roll of toilet paper after four hearty shits. So if you have 100 sheets on each roll, then I use an average of 25 sheets per dump. There's no way I could just wipe with two or three sheets. My fingers would poke through way too easily, and I'm there to clean my ass, not penetrate it. If I'm going to shit like a man, I'm going to wipe like one too. I deserve the comfort of wiping with a bedsheet, that's why I need a fistfull of TP after going to war with the toilet.
c~ 16 squares per wipe, 4 wipes per flush.
i grab like eight squares, and wipe as many times as i can realistically fold.
Three-ply?! That's some high-class shit!
I have IBS so It is always liquid. I use 2 flushes I for poop and wipes 1 and 2. And a second flush for wipes 3-5
Total Squares 30-50 per poop
I'm a scruncher, I'd say about 4-6 sheets of Cottenelle (God's own toilet paper) for normal heathly poos, and for the messy ones (after hard drinking) I have to go through 3-5 rounds of wiping, which will usually include a courtesy flush after two or three rounds of wiping.
Please develop a toilet that can be flushed repeatedly with minimum wait time! Nothing worse then having to loiter in the can so you can flush the rest of your shit paper down the loo.
And let us know the results! I want to hear how your tests go.
3-4 squares per wipe and wipe till clean, usually about 4 or 5 passes. If it's been a beer and pizza night make it about 3-4 squares per and about 12 wipes. And if tis a true FAWNEW double that to 24..
Well, I'm a scrunch/folder/refolder. I like to save money. I grab about 7-8 squares, wad it up, wipe, fold it in half and wipe again, then I repeat. So, 14-16 squares per shit trip.
The exception is when I have a rock solid turd with little to no residue left behind. That's a two wipe with 7 squares: 1 wipe to realize the situation, 1 for safety measures.
Hey, TP is cheaper than replacing painted undies! Hope this helps.
im a wasteful pooper buti have a system i wrap the tp roll around my hand 3 times take it off whipe fold whipe. usually about 11-13 sheets if its messy i dont know.
To quote Dave Mordal from Last Comic Standing...
Sometimes you drop and wipe and there is no residue on the paper. I call this a 'white glover'. A white glover signifies good luck for the day.
I try to always shit at work, even though the government agency that I work for buys the CHEAPEST toilet paper. A better use for it would be tracing paper, as one can look right through it. It takes about a quarter of a roll for one of those dumps where the consistency is somewhere between liquid and solid-- a dump where most of the pudding remains between your cheeks. Since I started on my Metamucil kick, to my delight that type of shit is quite rare. Now the logs just seem to hurl THEMSELVES out. Usually, I just wrap a bunch of paper around my hand and go for it. The toilets are so powerful they could probably handle an entire roll. Make mine about 25 squares, and a couple of damp paper towels on my 'off days'.
I'm in agreement with the 'depending on what tissue' it is. I'm a scruncher. If I'm in no hurry I acutally pull apart the plies and double scrunch giving me more tissue to surface to work with. I'm an average of 5 squares per wipe. So about 15 in all. More if I have the muds.
I wipe a lot, since I dread having an unclean and itchy asshole. I wipe until there is no trace of shit on the paper, and then I root around a bit to get all remaining poo. So, in my estimation, probably close to 30 squares per shit session. More if I have the squirts.
5 to 6 squares per wipe. Usually 2 to 4 wipes per dump. So, between 10 and 24 squares, depending on poo consistency and butt adhesion.
a refined answer by doniker. bravo you giggly turkey necker pervatron!
Since my dumps tend to be really sloopy and painful, I've come to the conclusion that I use approx. 10-15% of a role of standard Super Absorbant Northern Quilted per wipe. General rule of thumb is to continue wiping till there is only a slight light-brown tint on the paper.
Generally 3 wipes, folded, 6-8 sheets per, two-ply paper, plus a pre-moistened Cottonelle wipe.
Definitely a scruncher. I also recently encountered the "ultra," should-be-called-3-ply variety. I didn't need as much of it. Plus I had to use less because it clogged my toilet.
On the average, using reasonably cushy paper, about 5-6 squares per wipe. I also wipe till it's clean, somewhere between 3 and 7 times depending.
3 sheets. 1 up 1 down 1 to polish.
Depends on how bad the poop is. For a small poop I only use to 2 squares per wipe, 2 squares folded in half, 3 ply, and wipe from 10-20 times. However a massive poop is a different story. 9 sheets roughly folded over is for the first wipe, then going steadily down in number until I hit the 10th wipe, then for another 15 wipes its back to the normal system (or cistern,if you like)
For a normal dump I use about 3 meters. For a long visit after a curry and lager evening upto 9 meters. Sometimes I need to read the daily paper after a curry and lager night because the visit to the toilet can take upto 1 hour. I have been known to have 4 visits to the toilet for a dump after a curry night out. Andrex toilet paper with aloe vera is appreciated after a curry and lager night because it is kind to your bum.
Damn! What's up with you 3-5 square wipers? You know, I've got news for you: Your friends are too embarrassed to tell you, but...YO ASS IS STANK!!!!
Cripes, I use probably something like 20 squares per wipe (I'm a scruncher), and depending on the poop do anywhere from 1 (rarely) to 5 wipes. I don't know about you, but I like my crack to be clean, fresh, and most importantly POOP FREE. I can tell you, 4 squares at a time is not doing the trick.
I mean, the point isn't just to swish some paper through and flush it. You're supposed to WIPE dammit. Remove all those fickle feces. Be the Starship Enterprise (i.e., circle Uranus and wipe up Klingons).
Some of you folks are just plain nasty.
Well... I prefer to wipe until clean (or bleeding) so I would have to say on average of 5-7 squares per swipe with an average of 3-4 swipes per poo(sometimes as many as 8-9 swipes the morning after chili nite). Leaving us with an average per-poo usage of 21 sheets.
My shits come out anywhere from extra tiny to ass-blasters. As for the TP...well, I use a hell of a whole lot. Usually 7-8 per scrunch..I don't want my hand anywhere near my stinky bum after it's made a statement. If it's a high and dry floater, I make one wipe, other times I gotta pause and flush between wipes because it just won't come clean and I don't want my crap hanging around until it breaks down enough to hear that pleasant sucking sound of the toilet after a big one.
Paper? I use a scrub brush and a brillo pad...Don't stop till ya bleed is what I say
I feel like a jerk after reading all of these comments, but I can use up to half a roll at a sitting, when the poo is tenacious enough (I drink a lot of soda, and the poo is a lot like roofing tar, ew).
Damn my overactive enter key. Anyway, I'm a buncher, and probably use 10 squares a wipe. I probably wipe 10 times on average, and end up having to flush about 3-4 times to avoid cloggage; one for the turds, and a few for the paper.
Okay, I forgot one important fact which might be of interest to Mr. Scientist (or is that Dr. Scientist?). After taking my morning poo, I just realized that because I have an aging 1970s toilet, if I don't flush after 3-4 passes it clogs almost without fail.
The average here seems to be about 3 wipes, with about 6-7 squares per. I fit right in there.
Let's see. I'm a scruncher. 8 squares of two ply. 3 wipes. 24 sheets per shit.
125 grams for 500ml volume would mean that the average poop is a "floater". I cant speak for anyone else but in my case floaters are a minority, not a majority.
about 5 wipes with as much TP my little hand can hold. i don't wanna be any closer to what came out than i have to be. and the crack must be clean. not even a hint of what just occured can be left. i'd say 25-35 sheets per poo. and that's 2 ply.

Hi All
My husband's grandfather, Charles Augustus CLEMENTS was, according to his
marriage certificate, born in Troy in 1866. His father was Charles CLEMENTS,
a physician, his mother unknown. He came to Australia via South Africa in
the 1880s and married in Sydney Australia in 1890s. He was a vaudeville
performer, a trapeze artist, and trained his wife and children to perform in
a family act around Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, India.
The fact that his father was a physician leads us to believe he ran away
with a circus. He talked of a half-brother, Antonio, with a surname
something like Rodriguez, and named one of his sons Antonio.
Would love to find some trace of this family.

By Dennis Wagner, USA TODAY
TUBA CITY, Ariz. Barbara Johnson, detention supervisor at the Navajo Nation's dilapidated Tuba City jail clangs an iron door shut.
"The only thing keeping this building from falling down are those bars," she says.
The Tuba City Adult Detention facility, condemned by the city's Office of Environmental Health Code Enforcement in 2006, is empty except for a few men sleeping in the drunk tank. Under court order, prisoners must be released within eight hours, and nearly everyone in this part of Navajo country knows it. Conditions are similar all across what is America's largest Indian reservation, with jails so rundown, overwhelmed and understaffed that some believe the justice system has collapsed.
Delores Greyeyes, director of the Navajo Department of Corrections, said more than 38,000 people were arrested by tribal police last year, and a third of them ended up being sentenced to jail. Not one served the full time.
"Every last inmate is released early," Greyeyes said. "I've been calling it a crisis since I came in four years ago — and it's gotten worse every year."
Hope MacDonald Lone Tree, chair of the Navajo Nation Public Safety Committee, added, "It's basically a time bomb waiting to go off. It's a lawless society."
Navajo President Joe Shirley said the jail system has been troubled for so long that tribe members deal with it as they do with poverty or unpaved roads. "I really don't see it changing," Shirley said. "That's just the way they are, the U.S. government. I've told them about it until I'm blue in the face, and they're just not listening."
The problem is not exclusive to Navajo country. In 2004, federal authorities surveyed Native American jails and found conditions comparable to those in Third World jails. Earl Devaney, inspector general for the Interior Department, called it "a national disgrace."
MacDonald Lone Tree told a congressional committee at the time, "We are faced with criminals who have total disregard for our justice system because their government cannot incarcerate them."
Christopher Chaney, deputy director of Bureau of Indian Affairs' Office of Justice Services, said the agency hired a consultant to study Indian jails nationwide during the past 18 months, and a final report is expected late this year. Asked what good a study will do if there is no money for detention centers, Chaney said, "I'll leave that one to people on Capitol Hill to figure out. … We are looking for a long-term solution."
Chaney said the shortage of jail cells is a national dilemma on Indian lands. Although 191 tribes have law enforcement programs, there are only 81 jails on reservations in the USA, he said. Federal law enforcement contracts with tribes vary, Chaney added. Not all provide funding for correctional facilities. The Navajo Nation, among those responsible for its own jail system, has not added a new jail in decades.
There are six adult jails on the Navajo reservation, which encompasses 27,000 square miles (about the size of West Virginia) and extends into Arizona, New Mexico and Utah. It has a population of more than 200,000. Cellblocks in Chinle, Ariz., are empty because of an April fire. The detention center in Kayenta is merely a holding area. At Tuba City Jail, rainwater drips from a crumbled ceiling into buckets placed on the floor.
The reservation, which is down to 59 beds for long-term confinement, could use 700, MacDonald Lone Tree said. That breakdown would never be tolerated in non-Indian America, she said.
Peterson Zah, former president of the Navajo Nation, traces the history more than three decades to a law that allowed Indian governments to take partial control of their own law enforcement. It was the right move for sovereign tribes, Zah said, but the Navajo's inherited "inadequate and rundown jails" along with the burden of paying for them.
Conditions were compounded by a 1992 court case that found the tribe's jails inhumanely overcrowded. Since then, Navajo leaders, faced with an impoverished populace, have waged a futile campaign to improve conditions. This summer, MacDonald Lone Tree made another trip to Washington trying to drum up money. "We're still waiting," she said.
Shirley sees money to pay for jails coming from slot machines, as the isolated Navajos try the casino business. "I see a light at the end of the tunnel," he said. "In 10, 15 or 20 years, we'll have all the jails we need."

Seeing the little parcel on the mantelshelf, he asked what it was.

About Mehey hey!
Welcome to my page! I hope you get interrested by going through my photo's.
I am 23 years old, from the Netherlands. I'm a bubble of energy while working on a shoot. I can make my own clothes. Can not do my own make-up. Allmost always looks crappy on the camera.
What my style is about..
I want my personality to speak through my photo's. Also, photo's should not be flat or male magazine-ish. I have a fantasy way of thinking, but not in a cheesy fantasy elves with wings kind of way. I'm also a little bit creepy some times.
Contact me if you would like to shoot with me. I won't bite. I am a little opionated though. Hope I don't scare you guys!
If you contact me, I would appreciate it if you send me some ideas about what you would like to work on. I often get messages like this: "I would like to work with you, but you have to figure out what to do." That does not get me interrested.
With love..

The rap mogul will launch a new star search show on MTV that crown a boy and a girl to get a recording deal.
On top of his successful reality show "Making the Band" on MTV, P. Diddy will launch another star-search type of show via the same music channel. The rapper is on to select several talented artists with charisma to be picked as the winners of "Starmaker". The twist is, the selected ones will be made solo artists under Bad Boy Records.
Two people, a boy and a girl, of minimum 18 years old, will be chosen as the winners and get a signed contract with the label. Despite Diddy's status as the king of Hip-Hop, he will not limit the genre of musicians taking part in "Starmaker". From soul to country to pop, contestants simply must deliver their best at the audition dates.
Those interested can get behind the line on August 23 in San Francisco, C.A., August 26 in S. Louis, M.O., August 29 in New York, September 6 in Hollywood and September 9 in Atlanta. All doors will be opened at 9:00 A.M. local time. Contestants are required to prepare three songs that best represent their vocal range and may bring musical instruments when required. Application forms and more about the audition can be found at MySpace.com/StarMakerCasting.
"Starmaker" will be premiered by MTV in winter.

Denison admits that he shrank from doing the project in the run-up to his birthday last year, when he had planned to start it.
Chrissy Dyess, 38, of Denison, Texas, watched the video she made for her son, Spencer, "over and over" for the first few months.
Around the same time, Denison saw that a nude painting of Arthur by the artist John Currin had sold for $1.9 million.
A fan of The Golden Girls and Arthur in particular, Denison is drawing the actress, one sketch a day for an entire year.
The last drawing, he reveals, will be of Arthur sitting at an easel painting Denison.
Denison and Will spent their time attending to the springs, watching the thermometers and barometer.
In Tennyson, for Denison, son of Denis, we have the opposite change.
Denison left him and went aboard the ancient, cockroach-infested craft of which he was the heartbroken supercargo.
But on this occasion Nerida was not aboard, and Denison looked for trouble.
Mr. Denison set out to prove the right of the church to existence and he did it.

The federal government's plan to save $2 billion by cutting the private health insurance rebate for middle- to high-income households has hit another obstacle, with north Queensland independent
It was also revealed yesterday that the government's own health insurer, Medibank Private, is preparing for thousands of its members to abandon or downgrade their private insurance cover as a result of the changes.
Mr Katter said yesterday he would oppose the changes because of an exodus from the private health system to the already overburdened public system.
"I'm scared silly of people moving out of private health into the public health system, which is already collapsing in Queensland now," Mr Katter said. "We need to do what we can to ensure that people who can afford to stay in the private health system do so."
Medibank Private chief financial officer Michael Samuel told a Senate estimates hearing yesterday that the government-owned company's internal modelling estimated 1 per cent of its 3.7 million members could drop their private health insurance as a result of the government's less-generous rebate and another 2.5 per cent of members may downgrade their level of cover.
Under the proposed changes, which have been defeated twice in the Senate, a family on $160,000 a year would have its rebate cut from 30 per cent to 20 per cent. The rebate would phase out altogether once household income reaches $248,000 a year.
Mr Samuel said Medibank Private was working on its products to offer more than health insurance in the hope policyholders who might think about giving up their cover would see more value in keeping it.
On Tuesday, Tasmanian independent
Fellow independents
Although he was "open-minded", Mr Wilkie said he was yet to be convinced by the government that he should support means testing.
Health Minister
"The government will, as with all legislation, work closely with the independents and the Greens to negotiate the passage of the Private Health Insurance rebate changes through the Parliament," a spokesperson from Ms Roxon's office said.
"The government's modelling has consistently shown that our proposed changes to private health insurance rebates will not have a significant negative effect upon private health insurance coverage, premiums, or demand on public hospitals."
The Gillard minority government needs the support of the Greens and at least two independents to pass its proposed legislation. It now seems to be very difficult for the government to secure the numbers to pass the reforms in their current form.

Dave Bartholomew Biography
24 December 1920, Edgard, Louisiana, USA. Dave Bartholomew was one of the most important shapers of New Orleans R&B and rock n roll during the 50s. A producer, arranger, songwriter, band leader and artist, Bartholomew produced and co-wrote most of Fats Dominos major hits for Imperial Records. Bartholomew started playing the trumpet as a child, encouraged by his father, a dixieland jazz tuba player. He performed in marching bands throughout the 30s and then on a Mississippi riverboat band led by Fats Pichon beginning in 1939, and learned songwriting basics during a stint in the US Army. Upon his return to New Orleans in the late 40s he formed his first band, which became one of the citys most popular. He also backed Little Richard on some early recordings. Bartholomew worked for several labels, including Specialty Records, Aladdin Records and De Luxe, for whom he had a big hit in 1949 with Country Boy. In the same year he started a long-term association with Imperial as a producer and arranger. The previous year Bartholomew had discovered Domino in New Orleans Hideaway Club and he introduced him to Imperial. They collaborated on The Fat Man, which, in 1950, became the first of over a dozen hits co-authored by the pair and produced by Bartholomew. Others included Blue Monday, Walking To New Orleans, Let The Four Winds Blow, Im In Love Again, Whole Lotta Loving, My Girl Josephine and Im Walkin, the latter also becoming a hit for Ricky Nelson. Bartholomews other credits include Smiley Lewis I Hear You Knocking (later a hit for Dave Edmunds) and One Night (later a hit for Elvis Presley, with its lyrics tamed), Lloyd Prices Lawdy Miss Clawdy, and records for Shirley And Lee, Earl King, Roy Brown, Huey Piano Smith, Bobby Mitchell, Chris Kenner, Robert Parker, Frankie Ford and Snooks Eaglin. In 1963, Imperial was sold to Liberty Records, and Bartholomew declined an invitation to move to their Hollywood base, preferring to stay in New Orleans. In 1972, Chuck Berry reworked My Ding-A-Ling, a song Bartholomew had penned in 1952, and achieved his only US number 1 single.
Although Bartholomew, who claims to have written over 4, 000 songs, recorded under his own name, his contribution has been primarily as a backstage figure. He recorded a dixieland album in 1981 and in the 90s led a big band at occasional special events such as the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival. He was inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame in 1991.

Sushi Itto grand opening …?
Sushi Itto is getting closer to serving up sushi and Japanese cuisine in downtown Rochester. Teresa McCormack put up this banner amid heavy winds Friday night.
It sounds like the grand opening is slated for April 1 (April Fools!). A soft opening is not scheduled yet, but it should happen a few days before the grand opening bash.
Here's some from a story I have in today's business section:
It might be served raw, but Alex Schwartzman believes sushi will heat up downtown Rochester.
When Schwartzman decided to open a restaurant in Rochester, he looked for an underserved niche.
"I did my homework," he said standing in the red and black restaurant with textures. "And there just wasn't sushi."
So he decided to open a Sushi Itto Japanese cuisine restaurant in downtown Rochester.
The doors will open at 318 S. Broadway for a grand opening at noon on April 1 with a "soft opening" happening a few days before, he said.
How will they help make Midwesterners who might be not be quite ready for sushi or the idea of eating raw fish feel comfortable?
"First, we are serving Japanese cuisine with many, many other things beside sushi," says Operations Manager Nick Eklund. "We have something for almost everybody."
That means salads, soups, tempura (deep-fried) dishes and lots of varieties of rice offerings.
And expect full bar offerings served from behind a dark, shiny counter with funky, red-and-black lights above. The decor with many textures like exposed brick walls, wood decorations and stylish light fixtures reflects sushi's mix of traditional and modern flavors and textures.

But they have to look hard for him, as Zebedee's less than an inch tall!
Zebedee is a rare zebra-snouted seahorse, and it's thought he's the only one of his kind to be bred in captivity.
He's just made his first public appearance at Weymouth Sea Life Park in Dorset, and everyone loves him.
Zebra-snouted seahorses are facing extinction as 20 million of them are killed every year to be used in Chinese medicines.
He was bred as part of the park's 'Project Seahorse', but sadly he was the only one of the babies to survive.
But Zebedee seems really happy and he's very popular with visitors.

William Carroll, Department of Sociology, University of Victoria (email@example.com) — September 9, 2010.
It's getting later than we think
Greed may have pushed things to the brink
'You know, I'd like my life back.'[1]
So said Tony Hayward
In seas so deep there can be no horizon as you lose your bearings to the corporate master
And the regulations that might lend protection are sunk far below anyone's dim reflection
When you add it up you get a grim conclusion as the methane leaks in criminal collusion
And by 10 pm the blowout breached the platform and a ball of hell consumed eleven workers:
Jason Anderson, Aaron Dale Burkeen, Donald Clark, Karl Kleppinger, Blair Manuel, Steve Curtis,
Gordon Jones, Wyatt Kemp, Dewey Revette, Shane Roshto, Adam Weise. They never found the bodies
The spill is 'relatively' small
The ocean's 'very big' indeed[2]
'You know, I'd like my life back.'
So said Tony Hayward
Two days later, April 22 and the sheen of blackness spread out to the north shore; sixty
Thousand barrels gushed out every hour fouling wetlands, beaches and the ocean floor
Local livelihoods were ripped and torn asunder, coastal towns sent into sharp decline
It's just the cost of doing business, paid by 'small people'[3] and denizens beneath the bottom line:
Fishing folk in Gulfport, crabbers in the Delta, Bayou shrimpers and the oyster trade
Pelicans and turtles, coral reefs and dolphins – the dead zone thickens as the life force fades
The spill is 'relatively' small
The ocean's 'very big' indeed
'You know, I'd like my life back.'
So said Tony Hayward
On April 22, 2010 the Deepwater Horizon ceased burning and went to bottom. On the same day, a mass international assembly at Cochabamba adopted a charter for action to protect the Earth from ecological devastation.
The Conference drew more than 30,000 from over 100 countries. Indigenous
people from both South and North played a leading role in defining the
meeting's philosophy and action program.
Among the demands – creation of an International Court of Climate and Environmental Justice with authority to prosecute states and companies that cause contamination and climate change.[4]
"So said Tony Hayward" is a music video featuring imagery dredged from the internet, based on a song I wrote in July 2010. It's a tango about the BP oil spill (Apil 20-July 15, 2010) and its disastrous impacts, focused around the story of BP CEO Tony Hayward's hapless efforts to spin and manage a massive, and televisually spectacular, environmental catastrophe. It's a mediation on neoliberal capitalism's indifference toward human lives and ecological health. "You know, I'd like my life back." So said Tony Hayward before taking to his yacht for some R&R in the midst of the crisis – personifying the ethically rudderless professionalism of the executive suite. By chance, on April 22, 2010, the same day the Deepwater Horizon oil rig ceased burning and went to bottom, the Peoples' Conference in Cochabamba, Bolivia, reached an historic People's Accord – a 'Manifesto for Mother Earth' and 'a clear anti-capitalist analysis reinforced by a sketch of an alternative life-centered, democratic world' (Turner 2010). The music video trades on this coincidence to shift from a somber and occasionally satirical account of the disaster to a hopeful conclusion.
I think of this production as an socio-poetic initiative in public sociology: advancing an accessible, hopefully engaging analysis within an artistic medium – as a way of provoking reflection and discussion in various movements and publics. I hope activists and educators will find it useful in classrooms, meetings and other contexts. The YouTube version is at www.youtube.com/watch?v=4li0MzzRXMU.
A good source of information and insight on the Deepwater Horizon disaster and its aftermath is the series of articles by Kate Sheppard and Mac McClelland in Mother Jones (April 2010 until present). On the Peoples' Conference in Cochabamba see Ian Angus's "Cochabamba: Climate Justice Has a New Program and New Hope for Victory" (The Bullet No. 347, 29 April 2010), part of which I have paraphrased in the lyric. Terisa E. Turner's 'From Cochabamba, A New Internationale and Manifesto for Mother Earth', a more in-depth treatment, will appear later this year in Capitalism Nature Socialism.

ESPN announced the matchups for this year's Jimmy V Classic at Madison Square Garden, a group that includes four teams that all earned a spot in the NCAA tournament last season.
On Dec. 6, Missouri and Villanova will face off in the first game (7 p.m.), followed by a matchup between Washington and Marquette.
The matchup between Mizzou and Villanova will mark just the second time the teams have ever played against one another. Missouri beat the Wildcats in the 1985 Rainbow Classic.
As for the other matchup, Marquette is 2-1 all-time against Washington. Their last meeting was a Washington victory in the 2010 NCAA tournament.
And for the first time, the women's Jimmy V Classic will be held on the same night. Connecticut will play host to Texas A&M, the defending national champs, at 7 p.m. in Storrs, Conn.
But, best of all, the event gives ESPN another opportunity to replay Jim Valvano's unforgettable speech after being honored with the inaugural Arthur Ashe Courage and Humanitarian Award at the 1993 ESPY awards. For those who can't wait until December, here is Valvano's speech:

Holden is stepping up pressure on the federal Coalition to commit to funding for the automotive industry over the next decade - with a warning it could follow Ford out of Australia.
The company this week announced it would attempt to slash wages at its Australian manufacturing plants.
On Wednesday, managing director Mike Devereux also flagged that the company's future in the country was not certain if government funding was not locked in over a long period.
Coalition industry spokeswoman Sophie Mirabella, who has been in discussions with Mr Devereux, said if Tony Abbott won the federal election, she was confident the nation's automotive industry would survive.
The Gillard government has a scheme giving money to the nation's car makers, which will see $1.5 billion paid out between 2011 and 2015, and a further $1 billion over the following five years.
The Coalition will cut the first round by $500 million, down to $1 billion.
But it has also pledged to leave the second round of funding in place - while simultaneously promising a Productivity Commission review into car manufacturing, causing doubts within the car industry over the money.
Ms Mirabella said Labor's plans to save the car industry had not worked. ''Ford has gone under their watch, when they've given more and more money to the car industry,'' she said.
She said the Coalition wanted to see the car industry survive: ''We think there can be a viable auto sector, but there needs to be a change in funding guidelines to look at long-term viability of the industry.''
And she said that ''no car company has said to me they are going to leave the country because we have reduced the fund by $500 million''.
Holden has pledged, on the back of a funding pledge from federal and state governments last year, to spend $1 billion at its Adelaide production plant.
But Holden's Mr Devereux said this spending was not certain. ''Some people think that we have already been given money to do that investment but that is a prospective investment that we have not made,'' he told ABC Radio.
Mr Devereux said the long lead times of the auto industry meant Holden needed certainty for the next decade now on government funding.
The company is poised to begin spending by the end of this year on its new facility in Adelaide to help manufacture new-model Cruze and Commodore vehicles, and wants guaranteed funding until around 2022 before it begins spending the money.
Other car industry figures said that, if Holden believed there was a risk to funding from the federal government, the company would simply walk away from production in Australia and import vehicles, because it would be more profitable.
Dave Smith, national secretary of the Australian Manufacturing Workers Union's vehicles division, said if a Coalition government was elected, it would need to provide money to car makers or see them depart.
''If they can't lock in the required government funding from a Coalition government, then they will leave Australia.''
Industry Minister Greg Combet told Parliament that the Coalition's planned funding cuts would see Holden cease manufacturing in Australia.
''That puts thousands of peoples' jobs at risk under the Coalition's policy,'' he said. ''Over $1 billion of investment by General Motors in their Australian operation has been put at risk because of that Coalition policy.''

Reykjavik (AFP) Nov 10, 2011
A Chinese property tycoon is one step closer to getting Icelandic approval for his plans to buy a large swathe of land for a tourist resort, an economic affairs ministry memo released Thursday showed.
The ministry said it was favourable to Huang Nubo's plans in its memo to the interior ministry, which will make the final decision.
"The ministry of economic affairs sees no reason to believe that Iceland's interests are in any way threatened by the foreign investment in question," Economic Affairs Minister Arni Pall Arnason wrote in a memo to Interior Minister Ogmundur Jonasson.
"On the contrary it is important in view of long term general interests to encourage foreign investment," Arnason said.
It is not yet known when Jonasson will announce his decision.
Huang Nubo asked the Icelandic government in late August for permission to buy 300 square kilometres (200 square miles) of Icelandic wilderness to build a resort, since the land is partly owned by the government and approval is required for a non-resident of the European Economic Area to buy land.
Huang has offered to buy the land, known as Grimsstadir a Fjoellum, for $10 million and wants to invest about $200 million (147 million euros).
Iceland's Interior Minister Oegmundur Jonasson has said he would scrutinise the application carefully.
Jonasson insisted the land "is not up for sale simply because a high price is being offered."
Huang has said he wants to build a luxury resort with a hotel, golf course and sports facilities, and Europe's biggest nature reserve.
Icelandic observers have suggested that Huang's purchase could help Beijing get a foothold in the Arctic region, as the melting ice cap means lucrative oil and gas deposits under the seabed could soon become accessible and shorter shipping routes open up.

Canada bolsters protection of polar bears
Ottawa (AFP) Nov 10, 2011
Canada's environment minister on Thursday listed the polar bear as a species of "special concern," requiring a new strategy to protect the iconic animal to be unveiled within three years. "Canada is home to two-thirds of the world's polar bear population and we have a unique conservation responsibility to effectively care for them," said Environment Minister Peter Kent.

School calendar update
With inclement weather being a factor lately, the Macon County school board spent part of their meeting Monday discussing finishing this school year and preparing a calendar for next year.
This calendar year, the district, as a whole, has missed seven days due to inclement weather. That translates to 58 hours of missed instruction, but the calendar was planned with 55 additional hours beyond the state requirement.
School leaders have converted the remaining teacher workdays into instructional days, which will help offset the missed time and give the district some additional flexibility.
Superintendent Dr. Chris Baldwin proposed an early dismissal on the final day of school if no additional days are missed, "Should we not use up those remaining 18 hours—because we have a cushion of about 18 hours of instruction. If we get to the end of school and we have not missed additional days, I would ask the board to allow us to have an early dismissal on June 13 in order to finish testing and end school."
Baldwin also said next year's school calendar has been drafted, but recommended the board wait on adopting it and possibly get a calendar waiver, "The way the law is, if you miss eight days in any of the past four school years, you qualify for a calendar waiver. If we were to miss one additional day, we could qualify and it would allow us to start school one week early. There is a possibility we could finish the first semester by Christmas break, if we were to do that."
The state requires 1,025 instructional hours or 185 instruction days each year for students.

The longer that Blessed Virgin is out of the NFL, the more we fall out of favor with JHC.
What do we teach about the Blessed Virgin more wonderful than this?
Do you imagine the Blessed Virgin will not pay you off for this?
He cried about it, and wanted to know if I supposed the Blessed Virgin would forgive him if he did it.
So it was of some injury to the foot that the Blessed Virgin cured you?
But may thy grace watch o'er My parting, Blessed Virgin, and guard me night and day.
Money, moreover, was thrown into it; gifts to the Blessed Virgin abounded.
These will show you the spirit in which the faithful approach the Blessed Virgin.
It's very imprudent, but the Blessed Virgin is so powerful when she chooses!
It is not a theological treatise on the Blessed Virgin that I have attempted, but a devotional presentation of her life.

By Pvt. Choi Joon, Eighth Army Public AffairsApril 12, 2012
YONGSAN GARRISON, South Korea - A U.S Army noncommissioned officer induction ceremony was conducted here on Yongsan Garrison April 10.
Ten Eighth Army Headquarters and Headquarters Battalion NCOs participated in the ceremony, which served to honor the memory of those NCO officers who have served with pride and distinction.
Eighth Army Wightman NCO Academy Commandant Command Sgt. Maj. William C. Baker was the guest speaker.
Baker challenged the inductees to pursue excellence in everything and to be a good example.
"As you make this transition into the NCO Corps, your continuous reach for excellence in yourself and in your Soldiers is expected," said Baker. "Our Army is looking for the best qualified and capable leaders to lead our Soldiers in the future."
Baker said leadership and professionalism are words that describe the noncommissioned officer.
"Failure and success depends on how well the team is trained," Baker said. "You are the one who teach individual collective training, develop unit cohesive, foster values, loyalty and commitment and build spirit and confidence. Your job is tough and demanding but also very rewarding."
Sgt. Willie Nero, one of inductees, agreed with Baker's words. Nero, currently working as a cook in Honors Cafe Dining Facility, started out his service six years ago. He has been waiting for this ceremony and believes this moment shows the reward for his effort and hard work.
Nero said he plans to be a good example for his Soldiers and to take care of them at the same time.
Nero also gave Soldiers advice for how to advance into the NCO ranks.
"For the Soldiers, advance and move up," said Nero. "Learn earlier. Separate from the standards and strive for extra responsibility. Volunteer for the things that nobody does. It will help you to know what your job truly is."
