WHO ARE THEY: This Buffalo, N.Y.-based trio began their career as a punk band in the vein of The Replacements, but found commercial success in the mid nineties with their album "A Boy Named Goo." The album featured the hit single "Name," which cracked the Top 5 and propelled the album to platinum sales status. The single "Iris" from the "City of Angels" soundtrack was a smash hit in 1998 and paved the way for their next album "Dizzy up the Girl" which featured the hits "Slide," "Dizzy" and "Black Balloon." The Goo Goo Dolls continued releasing albums in the 21st century with "Gutterflower" in 2002, "Let Love In" in 2006 and "Something For The Rest of Us" in 2010. In June 2013 the band released "Magnetic," which included the single "Rebel Beat."
WHAT TO EXPECT: The Goo Goo Dolls are masters at playing in front of audiences both large and small as headliners and as a supporting act. Fans will get an opportunity to be up close and personal with the band as they perform at the friendly confines of the House of Blues inside Showboat Casino-Hotel Saturday night. The band is nothing if not adaptive, and they have shown this by transforming their style dramatically over the years to become radio favorites. The majority of the band's current fans will most likely be clamoring to hear the hits that first began in the mid 1990s and they won't be disappointed. The Goo Goo Dolls are also known to play the occasional cover including Tom Petty's "American Girl." Concert-goers on Saturday can also look forward to hearing songs from the new album "Magnetic."
WHAT'S NEW: The Goo Goo Dolls' latest album "Magnetic" reached No. 8 on the Billboard 200. It was the fourth consecutive album by the band to debut in the Top 10.
WEBSITE: GooGooDolls.com
SHOW INFO: Tickets are $39 and $69, and the show begins 8 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 1, at the House of Blues.

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, citing terrorism fears, has called for a ban on Muslims entering the United States.
Nearly 140 years ago, a similar barrier was proposed — for Mormons.
On Aug. 10, 1879, U.S. Secretary of State William M. Evarts, amid concerns about the LDS Church's then-practice of polygamy, sent a letter to the country's European ambassadors, instructing them to get their host nations to stop Latter-day Saints from getting on ships bound for the U.S.
Evarts' letter was read by the president's Cabinet "and copies [were] sent by tonight's mail to our diplomatic representatives in [Europe]," several newspapers reported, as quoted by Mormon historian Paul Reeve. "Our ministers are instructed to lay a copy of the letter before the governments to which they are accredited without delay."

The next generation Apple iPhone 3G S hits shelves on Friday, so for easy reference, here's how much O2 are asking to own a piece of Apple marvel.
Looking at the 16GB iPhone 3G S? That'll set you back anywhere from £185 on an 18 month contract at £30 per month, to free on a £73, 18 month contract. Go for the two year contract and you're looking at £175 for the handset and £35 per month (the lowest tariff at this contract length), and again, free on the £73 per month contract.
If you're plumping for the 32GB iPhone 3G S, you'll only get it free on the £73 per month two year contract. Costs on 18 month contracts runs from £275 on £30 per month to £97 on the £73 per month. On two years, you can get the swanky little thing for £175 at £35 per month; £97 on the £44 per month contract.
All these tariffs include unlimited data and Wi-Fi.
PAYG customers can get the 16GB version for £440, and the 32GB iPhone 3G S for £538.30, both of which come with one year's unlimited data and Wi-FI.
More details on the O2 site.

I've always been one to appreciate muscle. For several years I was an avid lifter myself. As an admirer of muslcemen, it probably goes without saying that I have an affinity for black men as well as they usually are quite muscular naturally. Sean Jones? Well Sean is just a fucking God in my opinion. Manifest Men are infamous for some of the most magnificent looking men in the gay porn industry. Sean is a very good indication of that fact with his massively sculpted physique. Let's take a look at a few poses and just sit back and appreciate him.
Sean's body is like something out of a comic book for crying out loud. I mean, look at those abs. The symmetry is astounding! In order for a large muscular man to look good he has to have the frame for it. Well in my opinion Sean here has the frame and all.
Oh wow. I could stare at this guy forever. Although he definitely turns me on, he also mystifies me. It's like a statue has come to life in all it's perfect splendor. Manifest Men are highly unique in their personification of the perfect man. The photography is always beyond belief and the men of course even more unbelieveable.

Why I Love Circular Needles
In her comment on my last post, Maggie suggested that I acquire circular needles for the plane flight, so today I went to Ben Franklins Crafts, which also has lots of yummy yarn, and got a 29-inch set (the TSA limit is 31 inches, and the next largest at Ben Franklins was 34). That means that the set measures 29 inches from tip to tip, with the cable stretched between them.
I came home, knit the shawl off the straight needles onto the circular ones, and promptly fell in love. Here's why; some of these reasons were originally Maggie's, but I agree with them!
1. Everything's in one place, so there's no danger of losing a needle.
2. The cable lets me stretch the shawl out to its full width. It's very pretty, even with goofs! The length also makes stitches somewhat easier to see.
3. The knitting area is more contained. Maggie pointed out that this is an advantage in cramped airplane seats, but I've discovered another benefit: without long straight needles bobbing up and down, one's much less prone to attack from curious cats.
4. As Maggie observed in an e-mail, the circular needles distribute weight much more evenly than the straight ones do. I can already notice the difference, even with a light shawl. When I start knitting afghans and other larger things, I'm sure I'll be even more grateful. Let's hear it for ergonomics!
The one annoyance is that the nylon cable's still a little twisty, even though I softened it in hot water (as per instructions from the knitting lady at Ben Franklins) before I started. I'm sure it will loosen up in time, though.
At some point, I want to get myself some of these gorgeous needles. They make one kind with interchangeable tips and cables, which sounds extremely handy. I may ask for this set for Christmas!
Other good news: I was talking to the Knitting Lady about the TSA scissors problem, and she suggested the little thread cutter on a container of dental floss. Now, why didn't I think of that? (I did buy a pill cutter today, for pills, but the blade in it looks too much like a razor, and I suspect TSA wouldn't be amused.)
Also, I refilled my meds script, and it was much less money this month. Evidently part of the cost last time was a deductible. So that's a relief!

How exactly does TSA think you would hijack a plane with knitting needles?ReplyDelete
"Fly this plane to Caracas or I'll force you to wear Hello Kitty booties. I have pink yarn and I'm not afraid to use it!"
hahahaha! Hello Kitty booties! hahahhaha!ReplyDelete
I've never had any problems with my knitting needles or scissors on US flights. They allow scissors up to 4 inches long. The regulations are here if you haven't found them yet.
I LOVE circular needles, too. I have knitpicks nickel plated interchangables, and they are awesome. They came out before the wooden ones, and I'm trying to figure out how to justify needing both sets.
I've been reading your blog for quite a while. As a Christian healthcare worker, I love your perspective. As a knitter, I'm thrilled you are blogging about that, too.
Tiel -- Yeah, no kidding!ReplyDelete
Red Fish -- Welcome, and thanks for the kind words! I'm sorry it's taken me a few days to respond!

Mr. Mitchell was very honest, he explained my options even my option to not hire him. Which I appreciate... I did hire Mr. Mitchell, because peace of mind is worth more to me than, going to court on my own, and risk losing more time and money. Needless to say Mr. Mitchell got my ticket dismissed.

Knee Deep Under 7's Zone * Main Park for 7yrs + * Under 2's Free in Knee Deep Area * Family Pass * Day Pass * Paddle Boats * Standup Paddle Boards * Umbrella & Chair Hire
Just 4 Fun Aqua Park Mandurah and Rottnest is fun for the whole family with a knee deep under 7's zone and the main park for bigger kids and parents.
Our kids were both under 7 when we visited Rottnest and they loved the under 7's knee deep area. Kids under 2 can use the knee deep area free, and parents assisting children in this area are also free.
The kids loved the floating trampoline, seesaw, slide and all the other inflatable fun toys.
The kids just did half an hour, it's pretty hard work so this was enough for them. However you can purchase one hour passes, get a family one hour or day pass (2A2C) or you can buy Stay & Play passes which gives you 10 x 1 hour visits perfect if you are spending a few days in Mandurah or Rottnest.
They also do standup paddle board and pedal boat hire. And if you want to relax while the bigger kids have a play or you want some shade while you stay and play for the day you can hire umbrellas and chairs.
When: Mandurah Open weekends only from 1st December through to end of March. and is open every day during Dec/Jan School Holidays 10.30am – 5.00pm everyday
Rottnest Open from 1st November every day through to end of April 10.30am – 5.00pm everyday

Charity To Open Three "Community Fridges" In Cambridgeshire
Imagine a food bank, but colder...fridges for the community to share are coming to Cambridgeshire.
Police officers who failed to find a seriously injured man after a road crash near Wisbech have been criticised by inspectors.
Norfolk Police were called to reports of a crashed vehicle on the A47 near Wisbech in July last year but despite two searches, officers failed to locate the owner of the car.
A 54 year-old man was found in a ditch and in a serious condition by a member of the public several hours later.
The Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) said the officers could have conducted a more thorough search.
It is thought the man lay injured in the ditch for up to five hours before he was eventually found and taken for medical treatment.
IPCC commissioner Sarah Green told Heart: "While there are no specific policies or training for police officers regarding the physical search of a given area in these circumstances, I think the officers should have spent more time and care carrying out searches at the scene.
The medical evidence indicates the injured man must have been in the ditch, close to the car, at the time the police officers were there, and the officers' failure to find him meant that valuable time was lost before he received medical attention.''
The damaged dark blue Peugeot was reported at about 11.20am on July 8. Police attended and established the identity of the car's owner and visited the registered address but could not find him.
Two officers searched the area around the car and, when they failed to find the man, attached ``authorities aware'' stickers to the car.
At about 4.30pm, members of the public called an ambulance after finding the man in a nearby ditch. He was taken to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in King's Lynn with life threatening injuries.
It was later found he had serious injuries to his chest and pelvis, meaning it was unlikely he had moved to the ditch after the police search.
The man, who has not been named, survived but is still recovering from his injuries.
The IPCC said the officers' failure did not amount to a criminal offence or misconduct but that action should be taken to prevent future failures.
The investigation also found a control room operator breached the Data Protection Act by inappropriately disclosing sensitive information in a telephone call with a member of the injured man's family, soon after the accident.
Assistant Chief Constable Charlie Hall, from Norfolk Police, said the force fell short of its expected standards on this occasion.
He said: "While the report acknowledges some of the unique challenges faced by the officers at the scene of this incident, we can only apologise to the victim and his family for the distress caused by their failure to discover him hidden at an earlier opportunity and, later, for the unintentional indiscretion of the control room operator.
Management action was taken against the two officers to address the performance issues highlighted.
Lessons learned from the failings identified by the IPCC will be applied to further improve the service we deliver.''
Imagine a food bank, but colder...fridges for the community to share are coming to Cambridgeshire.
Mental health practitioners now work in Cambs Police Control Room, as fewer officer hours are being spent on crime.

Last month while on our way back from a conference in New York, a group of us had the opportunity to stop at Schodack Island State Park. During our walk through the park we happened upon this odd contraption:
Turns out that the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets has been monitoring for EBBs, or "Exotic Bark Beetles" at locations all over the state for several years now. They are on the lookout for anything from the pine shoot beetle (Tomicus piniperda) to longhorn beetles to non-beetle type of insects, including the European wood-boring wasp (Sirex noctilio) recently placed on Michigan's radar. It's good to know New York and other states have an early detection protocol for insects in place, so that we'll have a better chance at fending off that "Next Big Thing"...too bad a trapping system like this won't work for plants :-).

By Kevin Allen, USA TODAY
Anaheim Ducks center Samuel Pahlsson's arrival as a tour de force in the NHL is evident in the fact that he was judged to be among the league's top checking forwards before anyone saw his best work.
Before he played to rave reviews as a monstrous shutdown center in the playoffs, he was named a finalist, along with Carolina Hurricanes center Rod Brind'Amour and New Jersey Devils winger Jay Pandolfo, for the Selke Trophy, given to the league's best defensive forward.
Trophy winners will be announced Thursday night at a ceremony in Toronto (7:30, Versus).
"My fear is that what he did (in the postseason) came as a revelation to the hockey world and for that reason he may come up short in the race for the Selke," said Anaheim general manager Brian Burke. "But, in our opinion, Sami Pahlsson was the best defensive forward in the league this season, and the playoffs validated that."
Pahlsson played on the Orange Line with Rob Niedermayer and Travis Moen, which played a crucial role in the Ducks' championship.
"When I got here (in 2005, former assistant GM) Chuck Fletcher told me how important this guy was," Burke said. "I remember saying, 'Well, I'm not going to jump off the bridge if he doesn't re-sign.' I didn't fully appreciate Sami at all.
"He does the blue-collar aspect of the job. It's digging ditches and laying bricks. It's not attractive. It's not sexy. It's easy to overlook him. But this guy is a warrior."
Now Burke is among Pahlsson's leading advocates.
"What you saw in the playoffs is, when he does play against the other team's best line and they are lax defensively, even for a second, he does have an offensive side," Burke said. "He can make plays, and he's a great kid."
Other trophy races (voted on by the Professional Hockey Writers Association, unless otherwise noted):
Adams Award (coach): Lindy Ruff (Buffalo Sabres), Michel Therrien (Pittsburgh Penguins), Alain Vigneault (Vancouver Canucks). The Penguins' success wasn't all Sidney Crosby. They had a better defensive system and seemed more organized. Therrien deserves attention, but Ruff is highly regarded by the media. Broadcasters vote on this award.
Calder Trophy (rookie): Evgeni Malkin and Jordan Staal (Pittsburgh), Paul Stastny (Colorado Avalanche). There was debate about whether the Los Angeles Kings' Anze Kopitar deserved to be in the top three instead of Staal, but Staal, a 29-goal scorer, played a role in helping the Penguins make the playoffs. That doesn't matter because Malkin is expected to win.
Hart Trophy (MVP to his team): Martin Brodeur (New Jersey), Crosby, Roberto Luongo (Vancouver). Having two goalies among the finalists is rather significant, considering only three (Jacques Plante, Dominik Hasek and Jose Theodore) have won the award in the past 50 years. It's probably a race between Crosby and Luongo because both led their teams to surprisingly good regular-season performances.
Lady Byng Trophy (most gentlemanly): Pavel Datsyuk (Detroit Red Wings), Joe Sakic (Colorado), Martin St. Louis (Tampa Bay Lightning): St. Louis is the only non-winner among the trio. It could be his turn.
Norris Trophy (defenseman): Nicklas Lidstrom (Detroit), Scott Niedermayer and Chris Pronger (Anaheim). Lidstrom is expected to win his fifth trophy in six seasons, although Pronger might have pushed him had he not been hurt twice. If Lidstrom wins, he would join Ray Bourque as a five-time winner. Bobby Orr won eight times and Doug Harvey won the award seven times.
Vezina Trophy (goalie): Brodeur, Miikka Kiprusoff (Calgary Flames), Henrik Lundqvist (New York Rangers) and Luongo. General managers vote for this award, and it's Brodeur vs. Luongo, with Luongo probably holding the edge.

Beamer of light: Virginia Tech coach is class act
11/25/15 by Matthew S. Vandriak
In case you missed it over the weekend, Virginia Tech head coach Frank Beamer coached his final home game for the Hokies. Metallica whose "Enter Sandman" the Hokies take the field to, recorded a special message for him. ESPN put together a touching tribute. And despite losing to North Carolina in overtime, Beamer's players carried him off the field. All of it for a very deserving coach who coined the term "Beamer Ball" for his emphasis on a complete team effort.
Frank Beamer took over as head coach at Virginia Tech in January of 1987. Now in his 29th season, he has won 235 games and his teams have qualified for a bowl game each of the past 22 seasons. That's quite impressive considering when he took over as head coach, Virginia Tech had only been to 6 bowl games ever prior to Beamer's arrival. Beamer went 5 and 17 his first two seasons in Blacksburg, due in part to scholarship reductions stemming from violations of the previous coaching regime.
But Beamer took Virginia Tech from being an afterthought to becoming a power in both the Big East and then the ACC. Beamer's Hokies were Big East champions 3 times and have been ACC champions 4 times. Beamer was the AP and AFCA Coach of the year in 1999, a year in which he won 5 additional coach of the year awards. His teams have won 10 games on seven occasions and have won 11 games in six seasons. He is the only coach at Virginia Tech to ever win 11 games in a season. He's won 10 bowl games as well. Beamer was the Big East coach of the year 3 times and the ACC coach of the year twice. He was also named Big East coach of the decade after the league celebrated their first 10 years of existence.
Beamer is most famously associated with the phrase "Beamer Ball". That's considered to be Beamer's approach that putting points on the board is a full team effort. Blocked punts and field goals were staples of Beamer's teams. Special teams and defensive scoring were as important as offensive touchdowns. That emphasis on special teams has led to 35 different players scoring special teams touchdowns during his tenure.
But it wasn't just what Beamer's done on the field that gave him the lore he has at Virginia Tech. It's what he's done off the field as well. Following the shooting massacre at the university in 2007, Beamer met with the parents of the victims and spoke to them. He walked the campus and when he saw students crying in the aftermath, he stopped to talk to them and tell them that Virginia Tech will overcome this. He said that act of violence wouldn't define the university and that one person wouldn't destroy the good that goes on there every day.
In today's world of college football, we see coaches jump from job to job almost yearly. The days of guys like Bobby Bowden, Joe Paterno, and Frank Beamer, guys who spent their entire careers in one place, are gone. So here's hoping Virginia Tech can win their last game and qualify for that 23rd straight bowl game. And that they win so Frank Beamer can be carried off the field on a winning note. The way a champion on and off the field deserves to be.

Two killed seven injured in Wichita shooting
Police say two people were killed and seven injured in a shooting at a wake in southeast Wichita.
Deputy Police Chief Robert Lee told The Wichita Eagle and KAKE-TV that all the victims of Saturday night's shooting were adults but he did not know their ages or genders.
One other victim was reported in critical condition and four others were reported in serious condition.
Lee says the shooting occurred about 9:30 p.m. He could not say how many shooters were involved but says some of the shots came from outside the home. No arrests have been made.
Lee says police had trouble communicating because many of those at the house did not speak English.
Police did not immediately return phone calls from The Associated Press.

In every walk of life, there are some individuals that are more equal than others, that are larger than life itself. A majority of them enjoy that status because of what they have accomplished; then, there is the minority, that tower over the rest not merely for achievements alone, but for the off-field persona, if you like, that accompanies the on-field virtuoso.
Particularly in sport, the lines between what one does on the field and how one conducts himself off it do get blurred from time to time. There are very few that stand out merely for what they have achieved in their chosen fields - a Sachin Tendulkar, a Rahul Dravid, a Roger Federer, a Pete Sampras, a Lionel Messi. But for every Tendulkar, there is a Brian Lara. For every Sampras, there is an Andre Agassi. And for every Messi, there is a Cristiano Ronaldo.
Neither Lara, nor Agassi or Ronaldo, is any less a champion. While a Tendulkar, a Sampras or a Federer, and a Messi will enthrall with magic in his area of expertise, the Laras and the Agassis, the Ronaldos and the Tiger Woods, they will captivate and mesmerise, excite and enchant with the colour and the glamour that might not always come naturally to the Tendulkars and the Federers.
And, they don't make them any more colourful, captivating and controversial than Shane Warne.
Just for mere skills, Warne is in a league of his own. An absolute magician with the cricket ball in hand, a master practitioner of one of the most difficult, demanding arts, someone who lent new meaning to the term 'weaving a web'. Warne is the granddaddy of guile and deception, a wicked legspinning genius who has produced so many dream deliveries that he has made people believe that not only can dreams come true, but that they actually do come true.
Legspinner non pareil would have sufficed for most. Not, however, for Shane Warne, Hollywood as he came to be known across and beyond the cricketing world.
There has never been a dull moment when Warne has had the cricket ball in his hand, walking measuredly to the bowling crease, tongue sticking out of one corner, an incredible wrist and strong fingers imparting unmatched 'revs' and procuring unimaginable turn from the flattest of surfaces. It was said of Muttiah Muralitharan that he could make the ball turn even on glass; Warne could do it on sand, in water, perhaps even on the moon. In his sleep. Time after time.
But Warne has never been just a cricketer, even if Warne the cricketer alone would have done quite nicely, thank you. He has been an entertainer, he has been an unquestioned match-winner, but he must also go down as cricket's ultimate showman. And the word 'ultimate' is not being used loosely.
Warne's 'misdemeanours' are far too many to be listed in detail here. From providing information on pitch and weather to bookmakers nearly two decades ago, to testing positive for a diuretic shortly before the 2003 World Cup and serving out a one-year ban, from lewd text messages to pow-wows with the establishment, from manhandling a teenager in New Zealand who photographed him smoking when he was being sponsored to kick the habit to having a run-in with officials of the Rajasthan Cricket Association when he was the captain-coach of Rajasthan Royals, Warne has somehow managed to keep the spotlight firmly trained on him, whether by accident or design.
You would have thought the passage of time, retirement from competitive international cricket and a more than passing interest in poker would have taken the maverick out of Warne the cricketer. If you did, think again.
Warne is now 43, an age where 'senior statesman' is a natural rather than an assumed role. It's an age when calm and circumspection and maturity replace excitability and the carefreeness of youth and middle age. It's a time in a sportsperson's life where the past is a gentle if pleasurable memory, the future a challenge that entails chalking out children's education plans and wise investments of the riches accrued through excellence on the field.
Not for Warne. The competitive juices continue to course through his veins. The streak of adventure and adrenaline that sometimes was his worst enemy is anything but a thing of the past. The Big Bash League of 2013, in all probability Warne's last competitive tournament - though you can hardly make such a pronouncement when it comes to this man with any certainty - was a not-so-gentle reminder that an old dog can still learn new tricks.
They say the ultimate challenge for any international cricketer is to win over the heart of the Australian fan, and the respect of the Australian player. Marlon Samuels did that and more 13 years ago with a fabulous unbeaten 60, impressing Steve Waugh, that hard-nosed competitor, to gift the young Jamaican with the famous red rag that Samuels still carries with him. Warne wasn't part of the attack that was systematically dismantled by Samuels during that knock, so it may not have been respect earned first-hand, but respect was certainly not on view during the recent Melbourne derby, between Warne's Stars and Samuels' Renegades.
It all started when the Stars were batting, with Samuels appearing to deliberately prevent David Hussey from going for a second run by clinging on to his shirt. Hussey made his point but desisted from making a show of it. Warne, though, is cut from a different cloth.
When the Renegades began their chase, Warne had a right royal go at Samuels, at one point grabbing his shirt to remind him of what he had done to Hussey, then letting loose a verbal volley that even amateur lip-readers could have deciphered with great ease. He later needlessly fired the ball at Samuels' shoulder even though the batsman wasn't attempting a run, an action that spurred the Renegade to throw his bat down the pitch. Warne was slapped with a one-match ban and Samuels is awaiting his sentence, unable to leave his bed after being struck on the face by a Lasith Malinga bouncer in the same game.
Then, in a move reminiscent of what Mahela Jayawardene did at the World Twenty20 when, facing a potential ban for slow over-rate, he asked Kumar Sangakkara to lead Sri Lanka in a league game, Warne stood down from the captaincy in the semifinal against Perth Scorchers and handed over the reins to James Faulkner because he was sitting on a one-match ban for the same reason. Jayawardene had escaped with nothing more than a few 'not in the spirit of the game' rebukes, but Warne faces greater sanctions because the BBL rules make it explicitly clear that if the designated captain of a franchise plays a match but does not lead, then he is breaching the code of conduct.
What is it that makes Warne do such things? A complete 'I don't give a damn' attitude, or the desire to compensate for inevitable waning skills with anything that will keep him in the news? The inability to accept that he is past his sell-by date, or the unshakeable conviction, however mistaken, that he is forever in the right? Perhaps all of these. Perhaps none of these. After all, if the answers were that simple, the mystery of Warne the cricketer and Warne the person would have been unravelled a long time ago.

Policies and procedures
Disposal of reclamations procedure
Roads and Maritime Services owns reclaimed land. Subject to satisfying a range of criteria, Roads and Maritime may be prepared to dispose of reclamations to adjoining land owners.
The following documents set out the procedures Roads and Maritime will follow when it receives an application to purchase its reclaimed land. All applications to purchase Roads and Maritime land must be made on the associated application form.
Disposal of reclamations procedure
Reclamations valuation – information sheet
Application to purchase reclaimed land – form
Commercial lease policy and procedures
Roads and Maritime has adopted a commercial lease policy setting general terms and conditions for commercial leasing on Sydney Harbour and its tributaries, Port Kembla, Newcastle Harbour and Botany Bay.
This includes the working harbour, waterfront businesses such as boat repairs, commercial marinas and dry boat stores, and facilities for licensed and amateur clubs.
These activities deliver major economic and community benefits for the people of New South Wales. Roads and Maritime supports the continued growth of these commercial and recreational maritime facilities, within an appropriate environmental and public benefit framework.
This policy sets broad conditions for Roads and Maritime commercial leases. It aims to deliver business certainty and opportunities for renewed investment by the private sector, while ensuring a fair return for the lease of public land.
This policy should be read in conjunction with other leasing and land use policies and procedures released from time to time by Roads and Maritime and the NSW Government. The policy takes effect from 1 January 2008.
Commercial lease policy
Commercial marina rental procedure
Duration of commercial mooring licences
In Sydney Harbour, many maritime commercial leases include marina berths and swing moorings, operated by the same business entity. For most practical purposes the moorings and marina berths are simply two parts of the same business.
Roads and Maritime commercial leases are generally offered for terms of twenty years or more, while commercial mooring licences are for one year only. While mooring licences are routinely renewed upon expiry, the short licence duration can create difficulties for operators in negotiating with finance providers, or in seeking to sell their business to a new operator.
Following the introduction of Roads and Maritime's commercial lease policy, the Authority has determined to offer its commercial lessees the chance to formally extend the term of their commercial mooring licences so they can terminate at the same time as their commercial lease. Commercial lessees will also have a single contact officer within the Authority to assist with commercial mooring and leasing issues.
These changes reduce red tape for the boating industry and improve business certainty for operators and users of commercial marinas on Roads and Maritime land.

United Nations, Global E-Government Survey 2003: E-government at the Crossroads (2003) (full-text).
Overview Edit
Governments are increasingly becoming aware of the importance of employing e-government and e-governance in improving public service delivery to people. The potential of e-government, as a tool for development, hinges upon three prerequisites — a minimum threshold level of technological infrastructure, human capital, and e-connectivity for all. E-government development strategies and programs will be able to be effective and "include all" people only if, at the very minimum, all have functional literacy and education, which includes knowledge of computer and Internet use; all are connected to a computer; and all have access to the Internet. The primary challenge of e government for development therefore, is how to accomplish this.
To support the development efforts of UN member states efforts in e-government the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (DESA), Division of Public Administration and Development Management (DPADM) undertook to produce this survey. Building upon the report Benchmarking E-government: A Global Perspective, published in 2002, the 2003 Survey provides a benchmark to gauge the comparative state of e-government development and e-participation for development in a rapidly globalizing world. The 2003 survey is published as Part II of the World Public Sector Report 2003: E-government at the Crossroads.
Following the guidelines of global human development set out in the Millennium Development Goals, the Survey focuses on the issue of how willing and ready are the government around the world in employing the vast opportunities offered by e-government to improve the access, and quality, of basic economic and social services to the people and involve them in public policy making via e-participation.

BOSTON — Having steamrolled their way to the semifinals, in mirror-image fashion, without losing a set, the Williams sisters — both facing Russian rivals — took decidedly different paths to Saturday's Wimbledon finals.
Venus dispatched Dinara Safina, who wore her world #1 ranking like a shackle round her neck, without having to break a sweat (6-1, 6-0), while Serena required all her grit and guts to outlast Elena Dementieva (6-7, 7-5, 8-6) in a brilliant exhibition of tennis firepower. Thursday's successful sister act set up a rematch of last year's final, won by Venus 7-5, 6-4.
Even absent the defending champion, Rafael Nadal, sidelined by a knee injury, the men have commanded the headlines at Wimbledon. Roger Federer is bidding for a record 15th grand slam title. And the final is guaranteed to see at least one player who represents years of thwarted hopes.
Andy Roddick was supposed to be the next great American star, the successor to Pete Sampras, but he has not risen to the challenge since winning the 2003 U.S. Open as a 21-year-old. And while Andy Murray, at 22, is a newcomer in the game's upper ranks, the Scotsman bears the weight of more than seven decades of British disappointment in their men's performances on the kingdom's most sacred grass.
Still, it is the Williams ladies who have commanded my attention, if only from a growing sense that we/I have been a bit begrudging about their careers. It certainly hasn't stemmed from a lack of appreciation of their magnificent talents. And it's almost impossible to assess how much the always thorny issue of race has tinged any judgments. My hesitancy to completely embrace the two sisters stems largely from their failure, or more accurately unwillingness, to be more like Roger — single-minded and totally dedicated to the goal of tennis greatness.
Both sisters come and go on the tour, giving short shrift to lesser events, and sometimes have appeared to compete in less than peak condition. They welcome myriad distractions from the sport in their lives — fashion design, acting, writing, interior design — and we have viewed most of them with a bit of condescension. Instead of embracing these pursuits as reflections of modern-day Renaissance women, we have seen them as unwelcome offshoots of our celebrity culture as well as obstacles to the sisters attaining their full potential — not, of course, in life, but rather at a game.
But once again at Wimbledon, when the stakes are at their highest, the sisters have risen to the occasion. And on Saturday, a Williams will again reign supreme: Either Venus will win her 6th Wimbledon title, her third in a row, and her 8th major championship; or Serena will capture her 3rd Wimbledon and 11th major. If there is any disappointment for us, it is only that an all-Williams final lacks that cutting edge of genuine rivalry. The discomfort felt by the sisters in playing each other has always been palpable and, thus, the victory celebration is tempered by the winners' shared disappointment with her sibling.
Still, it's time to recognize that not only has the on-again, off-again, more well-rounded life approach worked for the sisters, it may actually prove to be the answer to survival in the game. While countless other top players — Martina Hingis, Kim Clijsters and Justine Henin among them — have faded away at young ages, succumbing to burnout, injuries or simply the toll of the relentlessly oppressive tour, Venus, at 29, and Serena, at 27, still got both game and heart.
To the extent that we fans might have wanted, even demanded, something more from them, we were wrong and exceedingly shortsighted. Regardless of which Williams comes out on top Saturday (if you must bet though, get down on Venus rising), it's time to give them their full due.
Both sisters are great champions and worthy successors in the American line — and, indeed, particularly to Martina Navratilova, who was, after all, a lady of wide-ranging pursuits and interests. We should never begrudge those, especially when they may turn out to be the very secret to enduring success.

While there are lots of cultural differences, and nuances, sometimes you just need to lean back and laugh at some of the names or terms used to describe a body part. I mean come on, tell me you haven't sometimes wondered what another was talking about when they said they had some 'beef in the can' or some other phrase that just well, didn't seem appropriate for what you were talking about?
Just who comes up with these terms for things like a penis? When did we start calling it 'salami' or 'dipstick'? I mean I know that salami is a meat product, which okay, a dick is meat too. However salami is usually a mixture of other things too, not just pure meat, so what, when you are talking about your dick, it is somehow not all yours? Or is it because a dick is also made up of tissue, blood, nerves, and stuff, that makes it like a salami, or is it simply because it is tubular, and sticks out?
But then, if it is soft, it sure doesn't resemble any stick of Salami I ever saw at the local deli.
Now a dipstick, well it checks the oil levels, so what, when you stick your dick into a nice firm ass, you gonna know what their blood level is at? Or you going to know how much water is being retained? I THINK NOT.
Then too, a dipstick can also mean some moron, or less than intelligent person. So what, your dick is a total idiot? I mean it can feel, it can sense the other persons reactions, and that isn't what I'd call being stupid. So why is a dick also called a dipstick?
I get it, that in normal conversation, code sometimes is used to convey an alternative message, so that those around don't all know your perverted thoughts, but uh, how in hell are we supposed to know that? Like if you are talking to me, to try and tell me you didn't get anything last night, but don't want the nosy parker standing with us to know, how am I supposed to divine that from some secret phrase like the bonfire never happened? Seriously, bonfire for a penis? I am supposed to guess that means his dick didn't get to fuck someone?
Then there is the whole, name your penis, that sort of well, is really odd. Like it is my penis, why would it call it Little Harry or Little Willy? Course too, many who do call their dicks by attaching their own first name, with the prefix 'little' also seem to always add to the conversation, 'well he isn't all that little' so why not call it Big Willy or Big Harry? What is with the 'little' then the disclaimer afterwards?
I mean I can see how old guys sometimes don't get enough sex, and it isn't because they can't do the job either. It is that they miss the inferences being tossed at them, like 'care to meet little peter later' sounds like someone is inviting you to meet a friend of theirs. When the truth is, they are asking if you want to get fucked. Like how am I supposed to know 'Little Peter' is their pet name for their penis?
Back when I was a teenager, I remember my best friend bursting into our kitchen, telling me that Little Doug hit a homerun last night, and my mother looking up at him, and asking him, 'wasn't it hard to play baseball in a snow storm? Man talk about watching a face turn bright red, as he tried to stammer out some stupid reply, that only had her looking at him even more weird.
Then too I remember being asked by a friend after a date if I had gotten lucky? Now, I don't know, but luck and sex, just seems unlikely. Is it luck that determines if you have sex, or is it the attraction between two people? Now luck would be walking down the street, and some sexy stud from Bel Ami popping out asking if I'd like to get blown by him. Now that would be luck, be a miracle too, but hey, my little guy is ready if he is, though it really isn't that little.

Boutique does not do this hotel justice, it more than this suggests. The history of the site is fascinating with the hotel being an old priory. Part of the complex is the Grand Hall, formerly a church. This is utilised mainly for weddings and the weekend clientele may be dominated by wedding guests.
The rooms vary with the suites large and differing in shape. Breakfasts are continental with a heavy German influence ie sausage, cheese and wonderful pastries baked locally. It is also part of the room rate. There is no room service or mini-bar but this is not required given the Mink's Bar which offers drinks and soup/sandwiches etc. There are also a number of restaurants nearby.
Henry, the concierge, is a font of knowledge and provides many helpful suggestions/recommendations. He is also one of the shuttle drivers. This is one of the key services. The shuttle will drop one off within a certain area and then pick up "on demand". WiFi is free as is the small self-service business centre.
The overall impression is warm, very friendly and helpful. Don't hesitate just go

USF headed to Birmingham Bowl (UPDATED)
USF, on the heels of a 10-2 regular season, announced Sunday afternoon it will play South Carolina in the Birmingham Bowl at Legion Field.
The Dec. 29 contest fulfills the Bulls' postseason wish list in two aspects: (1) It's a bona fide bowl trip instead of an in-state commute, and (2) it represents a nationally-televised opportunity to garner credibility against a prominent Power Five team.
"This is a great opportunity for our program to go out and show the country what we are all about and add another significant victory to a record-breaking season," Bulls coach Willie Taggart said in a statement released by USF.
"We wanted to make going to bowl games a regular occurrence again at South Florida, so it's great to be returning to a bowl for a second straight season and have the opportunity to play an SEC opponent in Birmingham."
ESPN owns and operates the Birmingham Bowl and will televise the game, which kicks off at 2 p.m. Tickets are $50 each; ticket information can be found here. …

Konchesky relishing challenge
Paul Konchesky admits his move to Anfield has given him his last chance to prove himself at the highest level.
Last Updated: 05/09/10 5:55pm
New Liverpool defender Paul Konchesky admits his move to Anfield has given him his last chance to prove himself at the highest level.
The 29-year-old left-back signed terms with the Reds on Tuesday, penning a four-year contract after agreeing a switch from Fulham.
He played the second half of Jamie Carragher's testimonial on Saturday, and could make his full debut at Birmingham next weekend.
Konchesky, who is reunited with former Cottagers boss Roy Hodgson at Liverpool, is keen to get going and is relishing the challenge ahead of him.
"I'm 29 and this is my last chance to play at the highest level. That is what Liverpool are and I am really looking forward to it," he said.
"It was a big factor (Hodgson) but Liverpool being a big club was a massive factor.
"I'm looking forward to getting a new lease of life and playing at a very high standard.
"I can't wait to pull on a Liverpool shirt in the Premier League, it is a massive club and it is a big step for me.
"I just want to give it my all and go from there.
"I've had three or four days' training and although there have not been a lot of players there it has been a good week and I am hopefully going to enjoy it soon.
"It was good to be involved in Jamie's testimonial and put a Liverpool shirt on."
The former West Ham defender added: "You look at the history they have got behind them it is unbelievable and there are some great players here.
"If we can bring that back to the side this year in something like the Europa League then this team can go a long way.
"The testimonial was a bit slower than the Premier League but it was good for Jamie.
"I'm glad all the players came back for him; they obviously respect him a lot and he is well respected within the team.
"He looks fit and I think he has a few more years left in him - and hopefully it will be at Liverpool."

5 out of 5 stars Rhinoplasty
Ecstatic About my Septorhinoplasty and Turbinectomy Results! Philadelphia, PA
I had an excellent experience choosing Dr. Pribitkin to perform my septorhinoplasty and turbinectomy. He is a very kind man who is also extremely talented at what he does. He was very thorough in explaining everything to me before and after the procedure and answering all of my questions. He even called me the night before the surgery. I am a little over a month post-op and I am so pleased with the results. I can finally breath out of my nose and I love the way my nose looks. Dr. P gave me a truly beautiful nose. He addressed everything I asked for and created a natural-looking, beautiful nose that fits my face perfectly. I couldn't be more happy with the results, his work is incredible. I've even had friends who are interested in getting rhinoplasty asking who my surgeon is, wanting to book an appointment with him because they love the results. Overall, he is an excellent doctor, I am extremely happy with the outcome of my surgeries.
5 out of 5 stars Nose Surgery
Amazing Doctor - Philadelphia, PA
Dr. P has an incredible bed side manner on top of being so skilled at what he does. During my consultation he took the time to answer all of my questions and made me feel super comfortable as we discussed my goals for surgery. Dr. P was not the first doctor I met with to discuss rhinoplasty surgery however he was certainly the last. He called me the night before my surgery to answer any questions or concerns I had, which put my mind at ease. It's been about a week and a half since my rhinoplasty surgery and I am incredibly happy with my results. I strongly recommend Dr. Probitkin to anyone seeking nasal surgery as he is simply amazing at what he does.
5 out of 5 stars Revision Rhinoplasty
Revision Rhinoplasty with Exceptional Results - Philadelphia, PA
Dr. Pribitkin is easily the most talented, kindest, and most professional physician I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. I had undergone a septoplasty and rhinoplasty by a different surgeon to correct a broken nose several years before going to Dr. Pribitkin. After my first surgery I was very unhappy with the aesthetic result and my breathing was significantly worsened. After talking over revision surgery with Dr. P, he was confident that he could address all of the problems I was facing, aesthetically and functionally. It's just over one week after my surgery and the results have far exceeded my expectations. He corrected my breathing, allowing me to sleep much better, my throat no longer drys out when I'm asleep, and I no longer wake up swollen in the morning. Aesthetically he has created an truly PERFECT nose (and I'm a perfectionist) that looks completely NATURAL, it's better than the most ideal nose I could have imagined on my face prior to the surgery. Revision rhinoplasties are incredibly challenging, especially mine since I had broken my nose first. Dr. P not only fixed every problem I had with my nose, but went above and beyond. In my follow-up appointment, he explained exactly how he addressed every problem I had and was just as happy as I was to see that it had turned out so great. To say I am happy with choosing him as my surgeon is an understatement, I don't have the words to describe how highly I think of this Dr. and how pleased I am with my results and my treatment. Going through with this was very stressful since my first experience with another doctor was so disappointing, but Dr. P helped guide me through it every step of the way. I would highly recommend him to anybody considering any sinus surgery, he's simply a genius!

Medical students share results of local community health projects
WILLMAR -- Working alongside doctors in Willmar and New London, third-year medical students Amanda Carlson, Sancia Ferguson, Mikal Nelson and Dustin Sperr could see the impact of the rural physician shortage.
They saw patients waiting longer for appointments. They saw their preceptors working harder to keep up with the double demands of teaching and caring for patients.
So when it was time for them to choose a community research project for their nine-month rural rotation, they decided to create a curriculum introducing high school students to careers in medicine.
The class module was piloted in Willmar in March and was introduced at the end of April at New London-Spicer.
Eleventh- and 12th-graders at Willmar High School learned about the path to becoming a doctor and tried their hand at mock suturing and using a stethoscope.
"I think we were really successful in getting people interested," Ferguson said.
The new curriculum is among six community health projects being carried out in the region this year by third-year medical students in the Rural Physician Associate Program at the University of Minnesota in Duluth and the Twin Cities.
Altogether, 47 students -- nine in southwestern Minnesota -- are spending nine months living and working in rural communities across the state, gaining experience in what it's like to practice medicine in a rural setting.
Community health projects, which require the students to not only assess a local need but to research it and identify solutions as well, add a valuable dimension to this experience, said Gwen Halaas of the medical school's faculty.
"The RPAP program has a specific purpose in teaching students to be rural doctors," she said. "One of the most important aspects of being a family doctor is community health. ... The community is your patient as well."
Medical school faculty heard the results of their students' community work at a day-long series of presentations recently in Willmar.
In towns like New Ulm, Pipestone and Luverne, students tackled projects ranging from childhood obesity to preventive dental care. In Redwood Falls, medical student Dave Danielson undertook research on increasing senior citizens' awareness and knowledge of health-related resources in their community.
Jennifer Kuyava, who has been doing her RPAP rotation in Olivia, got involved in a rural palliative care initiative. Palliative care is focused on relief of pain and other symptoms of serious illness.
Her role was to educate Olivia-area providers on palliative care concepts and obtain their feedback on how a palliative care program might work in Renville County.
One of the things she learned: Rural doctors and nurses see themselves as already offering palliative care and aren't necessarily eager to embrace the addition of another program.
This finding, which has implications for other rural palliative care efforts, suggests these programs should be designed with specific community needs in mind, Kuyava said.
"You really have to listen to your providers and nurses," she said.
Carlson, Ferguson and Sperr, who are training in Willmar, and Nelson, who is in New London, pulled together information and resources from organizations such as Rice Memorial Hospital, Affiliated Community Medical Centers, Family Practice Medical Center and the Southern Minnesota Area Health Education Center, as they developed their career education module.
When they surveyed students after the pilot session in Willmar, about one-third indicated at least some level of interest in a medical career.
"It was surprising to me a lot of students didn't really realize there was such a great need," Ferguson said.
Nelson said the curriculum could potentially be expanded to more schools to reach more students.
Although it's hard to measure the direct influence of such a program, it's one more way of encouraging interest and inviting young people to consider a career in the health professions, he said. "There've been many steps along the way that kind of push us that way."
Kathy Brooks, director of the Rural Physician Associate Program, said the community health projects give the medical students a chance to start seeing themselves as leaders, a role they'll be expected to take once they complete their training.
"It's part of their identity formation," she said.
Halaas also sees it as a way of repaying rural communities for hosting medical students for part of their training.
"The community gives so much time and effort," she said. "I really wanted the students to have an opportunity to give back to the community."

When I was a dinky girl, I recall language "Mr Willowby's Christmas Tree" by Robert Berry. First published in 1963, this narration is endearing story something like how a Christmas tree was too too gangly and tossed aside. Throughout the story, many group and creatures found this itty-bitty discarded tree, provided a married for it but once, chopped it as it too big for their homes. In the end, a gnawing animal who lived in Mr Wallowby's seat was excited to have a ligneous plant for Christmas right approaching Mr Wallowby!
The lesson: When I conceived a teaching for the children, I study this would be a clear narrative to beef up the ability of recycling, giving out and liberal distant abdicable belongings during Christmas example. That someone's "trash" mayhap someone's "treasure". We must be conscious of what we flip distant. During the subject matter ask them the pursuing questions to get them reasoning and interacting:
What happens to holding when it goes in the trash? The hope is to have them grasp it's large than honorable active in the dumpster and a motortruck picks it up. Explain the waste material is understood to a landfill and the fundamental measure of instance it sits spell bad.Post ads:
gsm monitor for windows mobile / spy tech monitoring / programa para espiar las conversaciones del msn / my husband is cheating with a man / kids cheating cell phones
What are material possession we should "save" as an alternative of heave away? Ask the children to reflect on of things they know are angelic to cycle. Egg cartons, article products, glass, sodium carbonate cans are biddable examples.
What are property that you can stock beside others that you no long entail or enjoy? The cognitive content is to have the children presume give or take a few property on all sides their lodge they may not want. for natural event if they have a partner that likes Barbie dolls but they do not similar Barbie dolls anymore, instead than heave them away, spring them to their playmate.
The craftPost ads:
monitor your phone / tell someone their spouse cheating / computer monitor quality / how to spy cheating spouse / 2006 consumer telephone records protection
Since it was christmastime circumstance we settled to take home chimes out of egg shells. I explained to the children that a short time ago same the animals in the story, we can cart thing we no longest need, cut it, drape it and manufacture it into something that soul else will savor.
What you need:
- Old egg cartons
- Scissors
- string or tobacco pipe dry cleaners
- Jingle doorbell or trifling chimes
- Glitter
- Craft paint
Preparation: Cut the egg containerful into distinct cups. With the constituent of the pair of scissors or a acid pencil, scoke a earth in the nethermost of respectively cup. Before you paint, flex the bell and coerce both ends yet the crack of the nether of the cup. Tie at the top. As weeklong as the minute opening itself is less important than the bell, the bell will be protected and jingle.
Decorate respectively cup however you resembling. Mix sparkle into your paints for a prompt vivid spark result or simply rain shower the scintillation on top of the cups. By stringing the cups prior, it makes the doorbell a great deal easier to remove and move spell drying.
In the end, the brood darling their carillon and couldn't dally to dangle them on their trees or doorknobs at territory. I was ecstatic that my favourite parable was passed along to other family to savor.

Microsoft's clear-cut patent victory over Google-owned Motorola Mobility raises the question: Has Google, which claims to stand for openness as much as possible, become a patent troll?
A jury yesterday ruled that Motorola Mobility didn't comply with fair and reasonable licensing terms when it negotiated with Microsoft over use of the H.264 video compression standard and 802.11 wireless networking standards. In addition to ruling in Microsoft's favor, the court awarded Microsoft approximately $15 million in damages, about half of what Microsoft was looking for.
The ruling was the second victory for Microsoft arising from the same suit. In November 2010, Microsoft filed a suit against Motorola claiming that it violated its agreements to provide, at reasonable rates, use of Motorola's patented technologies which have become industry standards for online-video viewing and wireless usage. Motorola had demanded that Microsoft pay 2.25 percent of the price for each Xbox and Windows license sold. That would have added up to a whopping $4 billion annually. Microsoft cried foul, went to court, and in April a judge ruled in Microsoft's favor, saying it only needed to pay approximately $1.8 million annually to Microsoft, not much more than the $1.2 million that Microsoft thought it should pay.
Both rulings arise from the "fair, reasonable and nondiscriminatory" terms, FRAND, for short, that private companies who own industry-standard patents agree to follow in order to join international-standards groups. In both parts of the case, Microsoft argued that Motorola violated those FRAND terms. The Seattle Times puts Microsoft's argument succinctly:
Microsoft had argued that the rate Motorola proposed for licensing its patents was so outrageously high that it was done precisely so Microsoft would say no. That would give Motorola an excuse to file for injunctions against the import of Xbox and Windows products.
The courts, in two rulings, agrees with Microsoft.
David Howard, Microsoft deputy general counsel hit Google hard over the patents in a statement, saying:
"This is a landmark win for all who want products that are affordable and work well together. The jury's verdict is the latest in a growing list of decisions by regulators and courts telling Google to stop abusing patents."
Back in May, the International Trade Commission also weighed in on the issue, ruling that Microsoft's XBox 360 didn't infringe on any Motorola patents. That makes three strikes against Google-owned Motorola in this patent battle.
John Paczkowski of AllThingsD says that the results essentially label Google as a patent troll:
"Not only does the verdict call into question the wisdom of the company's $12.5 billion acquisition of Motorola Mobility, it has made it possible for a rival like Microsoft to publicly lambaste it as a patent troll. Accurately."
In this instance, I think he's just about on target. If Google really wants to stand for openness, it's going to have to change the way it uses its patents as a tools against competitors.
