SINGAPORE – In recent weeks, there has been a chorus of opinion arguing for a sharp increase in global investment, particularly in infrastructure. Former US Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers asserted that public investment really is a free lunch, while IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde has argued that an investment boost is needed if the world economy is to "overcome a new mediocre."
These comments suggest that the world has been under-investing for many years. In fact, according to International Monetary Fund data, the current overall global investment rate, at 24.5% of world GDP, is near the top of its long-term range. The issue is not a lack of overall investment, but the fact that a disproportionate share of it comes from China.
China's share of world investment has soared from 4.3% in 1995 to an estimated 25.8% this year. By contrast, the United States' share, which peaked at 36% in 1985, has fallen to less than 18%. The decline in Japan's share has been more dramatic, from a peak of 22% in 1993 to just 5.7% in 2013.
China dominates global investment because it saves and invests nearly half of its $10.5 trillion economy. But this investment rate is likely to decline sharply over the next 5-10 years, because the country already boasts new infrastructure, has excess manufacturing capacity in many sectors, and is trying to shift economic activity to services – which require less investment. Moreover, China's rapidly aging population and declining working-age population will reduce long-term investment demand.

Joe Worsley's progress from novice understudy to an international No.8 in his own right, as demonstrated by his formidable part in the grinding power struggle against South Africa, leaves his more famous fellow Wasp with an in-house fight on his hands for the Six Nations.
It is unlikely to begin in earnest, however, until England pick their team for France in Paris at the halfway point of the championship next March.
Dallaglio, in daily rehabilitation following his knee reconstruction last summer, is scheduled to start playing again at the end of January, which would leave him no time to be ready for his country's start to the Six Nations, in Scotland on February 2.
Injury permitting, Worsley can expect at least one more opportunity to pick up where he left off against the Springboks.
Just as Ben Kay succeeded in making Martin Johnson's return less than a foregone conclusion, so Worsley is doing the same to Dallaglio in a duel which would affect Richard Hill's future at blindside should England, like Wasps, decide to find room for both in the same back row.
After a lengthy apprenticeship, Worsley has now developed beyond the stand-in stage. He said: 'I was stuck behind "Lol" and Hilly for two years. They were playing well and I could really have no gripes about not being picked. Now the boot is on the other foot. If I keep playing well, I expect the same treatment.
'This is the first time I've started for England where they've said, "you're the best man we've got, go for it". I've shown what I can do. I have a lot to work on, but I'm very happy with the last three weeks.
'Lawrence will be back in the frame and that's something I'll face when the time comes. It's a tough one, but that's up to the selectors.'
Dallaglio, 29, acknowledged Worsley's rising stature when he said: 'Joe is an established England player with 14 caps. He played very well and I'm thoroughly looking forward to the competitive situation which will arise once I'm fit again.
'He's the man in possession and after the Springbok match I said, "well done, mate". We're the best of friends and I've worked very closely with him when we've played together at Wasps.
'I'm looking forward to challenging for a place in the England squad. Given the rest and the motivation, it's a challenge I'm most certainly looking forward to, while accepting that nothing is guaranteed, least of all in rugby.
'I've never viewed my place in the England team as mine by right. I have to earn it every time I play and my priority is to get back into great shape. Once I do that, my performances for Wasps will do the rest.
'People are asking, "will you get back in?" Those questions are bound to be asked, but I don't worry about it. I'm not taking anything away from Joe, but any back row will tell you that if the five guys in front of you do their jobs properly, it helps you do yours. I feel the rest will have done me a power of good and my target is to come back playing even better than before the knee trouble.
'When you've been out for a long time you get the chance to reset your targets and objectives. They are to be involved with a successful Wasps and England for a few more years.
'I've plenty of good rugby left in me and I shall be concentrating on my own performances. We'll have to wait and see whether they'll be good enough. I think they will be. We'll soon find out.'
Wasps had been resigned to losing their most valuable player for almost the entire season and Dallaglio still cannot be definite as to when he will be back. He said: 'The loose target is the end of January. Then everyone jumps to the conclusion that it'll be in time for the Six Nations.
'That's not the case at all. It's purely coincidence. The condition of my knee will determine when I come back, not the rugby calendar. Everything has gone exceptionally well since the operation and I'm working daily with Dave Reddin (England's fitness adviser).'

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
After working for my current company for 3 months, after being advised must smoke off property (which I normally smoke on the property next door that is a city/state owned beautiful the city campaign area on the CITY sidewalk) I am now being advised that I have to be off premesis, not in view of any of the company owned buildings, yet I am still clocked in due to breaks being paid to employees. Would the company be liable if there were something to happen to me or another co-worker that smokes?
You have not provided nearly enough details to answer your question. Smoking is NOT an accommodation in the same sense as eating or using the restroom. Generally, I do not believe any injury incurred on such an excursion would be compensible.

We have been able to do this on the adjacent property for 3 months, I would provide more detail if there was more detail. Unfortunately before today this was not an issue, and we were advised as of today we must go away to where we are not visible from any of the buildings, which with the location the way it is, must be a ways down the road. The reasoning for my question was that as I drove around (this area is a pretty bad area to begin with) to smoke, I noticed a vehicle trailing me, I was driving with no destination yet every turn they were still there. I'm hoping maybe that helps a bit. It is not the same as bodily functions or nurishment, understandable, it's not the smoking that I'm worried about, if for ANY reason they mandate that you leave while clocked in, regardless of the reasoning, they would in most circumstances be liable as far as my knowledge would go.
I do appreciate your concerns but my opinion remains unaltered.
That will depend, and your facts are a little light. My recommendation would be to wear natural fibers, and carry a bottle of water in case you ACCIDENTALLY drop your lit cigarette into your smoking buddy's hair.

By Sharon L. Peters, Special for USA TODAY
Imagine a tiny songbird, barely 6 inches long, vivid yellow, trilling its cheerful melody, flitting about.
Now imagine that same little bird with its beak filed to needle-like sharpness, slashing, pecking, attacking and being attacked by another just like him. The two male birds, saffron finches, will keep this up until one of them is dead or so close to it that the distinction isn't worth making. Several men watch this increasingly bloody battle, grinning, cheering, slapping their pockets, hoping to walk away with a bundle of bills for having bet on which one would still be alive at the end.
ANIMAL CRUELTY: Law would track convicts
PAW PRINT POST: Simon Cowell fights animal cruelty
PET TALK: Chained Lab's anguishing story
Bitty birds seem to be the newest chosen victims of high-stakes animal fighting.
Animal welfare experts fear that two recent raids of alleged bird-fighting rings — one in Connecticut last summer, one in Massachusetts last month — foretell a growing trend.
"My guess is that there's more of this going on than people know," ASPCA field investigator Tim Rickey told me last week. This sort of thing doesn't spring up and exist in utter isolation, he says, and the fact that birds are little, cheap, easy to hide and transport and not likely to draw any neighbor's attention when there are 50 of them in a home or basement or garage means this is a practice that can exist — and probably has existed — undetected for quite some time.
The concern, of course, is not only the cruelty involved in torquing up a couple of male birds to the point that they'll fight to the death, but also the danger of attracting into suburban neighborhoods the kind of people who enjoy this kind of activity.
"In most cases, the people who are fighting small birds in the basement might well have been fighting dogs or cocks in the backyard," says Rickey. There may be weapons, there may be drugs, money changes hands, and these are most certainly people who don't think or process or behave like an ordinary person. "These people like to watch brutality," he says.
Rickey readily acknowledges that he had a moment, upon hearing of the first alleged finch-fighting bust, when he thought someone was pulling his leg. But as he dug and researched, he came to understand "this is just further evidence of how prevalent fighting is."
It goes a lot broader and deeper than most of us realize. Rickey was in Georgia recently to work a dog-fighting case, and "within eight days we had taken down three others beyond the initial case." And last year in Missouri he was working what was thought to be a "small dog-fighting bust" and within weeks it was discovered that the rings involved eight states. More than 30 people were arrested and 500 animals seized.
The extremes to which animal fighters will go is stunning. People in Rickey's line of work are very familiar with "hog-dogging," which is when, in rural areas, a dog and hog are set upon each other for audience enjoyment until one is dead. And in urban areas, there's something called "trunking," where two fighting dogs are thrown into a car trunk or a small towable trailer and are driven around until there's a winner and a dead dog. Keeping moving, of course, rather than holding fights in a basement or an abandoned warehouse lessens the chance of being detected and possibly arrested.
"This bird fighting is just one more layer in the underground culture that participates in this sort of thing," Rickey says.
Tiny birds ripping each other apart don't provide quite the level of death screams, bloodshed and gore that fighting dogs and even fighting roosters present to the entranced gamblers. "But if people are being forced out of dog and rooster fighting because of increasing scrutiny, they'll look for their thrills with another animal," Rickey says.
And this whole mess is deeply troubling to people like him. "The birds are a different avenue, a little harder to detect. They (animal fighters) are changing up the game," going deeper underground, and perpetuating a desire for blood sport in additional generations.

You are taking a fractional power of a negative number and that will almost always lead to complex results. For example the 1/2 power of -1 is plus or minus the square root of -1, or plus or minus i, which is either of two complex values. With a power of .35 = 20/7 there are seven possible answers, all of them complex-valued.
Mathematicians get around this ambiguity by defining
y^x = exp(x*log(y))
where the log function has infinitely many branches in the complex plane. In Matlab the 'log' function selects the branch with imaginary part equal to pi*i for negative values of y, which generally results in a complex-valued result.

extract from the 12th Edition, "2012 Ballybrown Parish Journal" and reprinted here with the kind permission
of the editor Tom Donovan.
In September 1869
Constable John Corr was transferred on promotion from Cappamore to Clarina. It
was a difficult time for the constabulary as there was a sustained campaign of
violence during the Fenian Rising, when policemen had to withstand many
attacks, often in isolated rural barracks. Queen Victoria acknowledged the
bravery of the police force during this period when she bestowed the prefix
'Royal' to the Irish police and they were henceforth known as the Royal Irish
We are indebted to
Nancy Burleson and her family for sharing the memoirs of their great-granduncle
William James Corr, who eventually became a Methodist minister in Winconsin. He
recalled his time spent in Clarina, with his parents John and Rebecca and his
other siblings, in his memoirs written in 1935, which includes some wonderful
accounts of life in Clarina from September 1867 to August 1875.
Nancy wrote that he
"wrote his memoir with great sensitivity and understanding of the times in
which his family lived, and I think he would feel honoured to know that his words
and memories were being heard and appreciated today".
memoirs are extensive and the following extract is only relevant to Clarina:
I was born in a
small town in west County Cork, Ireland, named Dunmanway, on November 3, 1860. My
father's name was John Corr and my mother's maiden name was Rebekah Howes. My
father was then a Constable in the Royal Irish Constabulary. He joined the
police against the wishes of his family because at that time, 1852, the force
was poorly paid and, like all military bodies living in barracks, it was not
congenial to religion though its members were required to attend church on the
Sabbath at least once. That was part of the discipline. My father's family were
strict Methodists.
On September 5, 1867,
my father was promoted again and was transferred to Clarina, County Limerick, five
miles west of Limerick. He was in command of a police district including the
parish of Kilkeedy. There were five or six policemen in the station who messed
in one part of the barrack while my father and his family lived in rather
narrow quarters in another part. The station was on Lord Clarina's estate and
he was responsible for the building. It was afterwards enlarged to meet the
needs of the family. As I look back on that home and contrast it with American homes,
sometimes I wonder how my father and mother contrived to raise us as a family
in such conditions. The house itself was substantial; the garden where we
cultivated potatoes and cabbage, no fruit, had a lovely hedge and walk with
ornamental shrubbery was a favourite place for my father to smoke in the
morning. The front of the home had a lovely flower garden. Father was fond of flowers and
we had lovely rose bushes and ivy, the hiding places of many sparrows, covered
the front walls of the house. Some of the places in California where English
ivy covers fences and houses recall the ivy covered buildings, castles, abbeys,
churches and homes of my childhood days. The station was next door to the
school grounds and the teacher's home. The proximity of the school was one of
the reasons why my father was transferred to Clarina.
The walls
surrounding the yard were whitewashed and so were the exposed walls of the
house. Across the road, over which passed a great deal of traffic to and
from Limerick city, were woods belonging to Lord Clarina's demesne where I
hunted bird nests, hazelnuts and climbed trees. The woods were entered by a
wicket gate from which led a winding path that led to the driveway to the
castle. We got the family milk at the castle because the farmers did not want
to accommodate the police. Lady Clarina became a great friend to my mother because they
both attended church and were identified as belonging to the Protestant and
loyal group in the community.
Americans cannot
understand the peculiar social life of Ireland and I will not attempt a
complete explanation. My father as a Protestant had under his command mostly Roman
Catholic policemen at a time when Ireland was practically governed from Dublin
Castle by a representative of the British Crown, known
as the Chief Secretary. The police department was closely connected with his
office and the administration of law had its contact with
the people through it. My father was, therefore, the executive officer in his
district. To perform his duties to promote peace and good order it was
necessary that a man in his position should be "as wise as a serpent and harmless
as a dove". Before coming to Clarina he had passed through the Fenian
Rebellion which taxed the power of the Government of Ireland to control. Of
course it left its scars in the social life of every neighbourhood and the police force, as
might be expected, had to meet with much social ostracism and unfriendliness.
This attitude drew the Protestant elements together and created friendships and social relationships Americans
cannot understand. The landlord class owned large estates and hence were looked
upon by the tenants with more or less hatred because their lands were
historically obtained in most cases by favouritism from ancient Government grants
or by purchase from those who received them from the ancient Irish owners by
political deals. These landlords controlled or had great influences with the
Government and hence had much to do with the Constabulary in the Courts as
Magistrates. The landlords as a class were Protestants, members of the
Episcopal Church and Conservatives in politics. These social conditions created
problems for the police that made it difficult to maintain peace, especially when
political campaigns which appealed to the self-interest of the voters or to the
political aspirations of the Irish opposed to British supremacy. The majority
of the Protestants were in favour of maintaining ascendancy of the Protestant British
Government. The majority of the Roman Catholics were opposed to it. I might say
the number of Protestants on the side of Irish independence then and now is few
and, on the other hand, the number of Roman Catholics in favour of maintenance
of British control was few. The whole attitude of the people in the district
under the command of my father was, aside from the few families identified with
the Episcopal Church, anti-British.
County Limerick is
historically controlled politically by the anti-British element. Limerick
city is known as the 'City of the violated Treaty' because it was the last
stronghold of the Stuarts in Ireland to surrender to the forces of William III
and Mary. The Treaty was signed on a stone preserved on a pedestal on the north
side of Thomond Bridge which crosses the Shannon River near the head of
tidewater. I have seen the stone and crossed the bridge many times.
To illustrate the
political character of the county when we moved to Clarina, I should tell about
the election of Mr. Monsell to Parliament. The Monsell family inherited an
estate along the River Shannon near a little village called Tervoe, part of the
ancient lands of the O'Brien's. The Monsells were Protestants. Mr. Monsell ran
for Parliament but was defeated. After the death of his first wife he married a
French lady who was a Roman Catholic. The
next time he ran for Parliament he was elected and subsequently became Postmaster-General
in one of Mr. Gladstone's Cabinets and was elevated to the peerage becoming Lord
Emily. Lady Emily had a private Roman Catholic chapel in the mansion and her
own French father confessor.
Another person in my
father's district who had much to do with its control was Father O'Connor, the parish
priest. I remember him as a kindly man about fifty years of age, afflicted with
corns and who rode around on a very nice Irish jaunting car big enough for
himself on one side and a driver on the other. He was a great friend to my
father and I believe had much to do with promoting peace in the neighbourhood
in times of political agitation.
But the man who did
most for us as a family and whose memory has always been a blessing to me was
vicar of the Kilkeedy parish in which Clarina was situated. His name was John
Tulloch Maguire, a minister of the old school of the Church of Ireland. He was
a graduate of Trinity College, Dublin. In middle
life, when our family became identified with his church, he died suddenly
before my father and mother moved from Clarina. He was an earnest, conscientious
minister and lived a quiet scholarly life in the vicarage. He preached in a
parish church in the centre of a cemetery called the churchyard. The church and
the cemetery were crowded with memorials of many centuries. I cannot estimate
the time that plot of ground was occupied by churches. The church standing
there in 1867 was very old. It had plain glass windows, old-fashioned straight backed
pews. On either side of the altar, hanging on the wall, were two large tablets
containing in large the Ten Commandments. The choir and harmonium were in the
gallery. In this church I sang in my first choir. The most important service in
that church in which I sang was the marriage of Hon. Miss Massey, Lord
Clarina's daughter, to Sir Thomas Roach (Roche) who lived at Croom, County Limerick.
The hymn was
Voice that breathed o'er Eden
earliest wedding day,
primal marriage blessing,
hath not passed away".
John Keble's marriage
hymn was then new to us and is still found in the Protestant Episcopal Hymnal set
to the same tune we learned for the occasion, an outstanding social event in
aristocratic circles. Mr. Maguire's oldest daughter was the organist and director
of the choir. The ruins of other ancient churches were in the same yard, two at
least, and I have no difficulty in believing that they dated back to the
invasion of the Danes in the 9th century.
A new church was
erected about 1870, more modern with stained glass windows and more comfortable
pews. When this church was dedicated, Dr. Alexander, the Lord Bishop of
Londonderry, a brother-in-law of Mrs. Maguire, preached the sermon. It was an impressive
service and I can say that I remember the occasion and that the sermon was
outstanding. I cannot remember any more than that there were some fine
The parish school,
conducted under the auspices of the Church Education Society or Board, was
under the patronage of Lord Clarina and was supervised by Mrs. Maguire. It was
provided for the Protestant children of the parish, the National School being under
the management of the Roman Catholics. The school systems of Ireland required a
special chapter. It will be enough to say that denominationalism or sectarianism
such as the parochial school system of the Roman Catholic and German Lutheran
(Mission Synod) is very strongly emphasized in Ireland.
Mr. Maguire
had much to do with securing the teachers and visited the school, heard
Catechism and recital of Scripture studies every Friday afternoon. We had
several teachers while I attended school there. The first I remember was a Mr.
Hamilton who afterwards entered 'Holy Orders' (became a minister). This man
lived high and was somewhat of an aristocrat. He was a good teacher and I know
he had a temper for one day I got well spanked on both hands with a green rod.
The boys went hunting birds in the hedges along the road and we all got back
very tardy and when we came in were all lined up before his desk and got a
terrible lesson. The big boys got about twenty-five cracks on the bare hands
and we smaller boys got from five to seven. The girls sitting in the desks had
a very tearful time. The next man's name was Combs. He had a terrible temper
and a terrible appetite. I remember how he drilled us on Isa. Three verses each
day - Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday on the blackboard so that we could
recite the whole chapter when the minister came on Friday. I would like to know
how his oldest son turned out. The poor boy got terribly flogged one day when
he was late to school. We were all glad when Combs with his alcoholic temper
The next teacher
named Egan was a good teacher, very conscientious and devout. His Catechism and
Bible teaching, as I remember it, had a passion, for souls in it and as a
consequence he entered the ministry. The last teacher I had was named Kingston.
He was a good teacher. During his term I was encouraged to draw water colour
texts. I took great interest in this work. Lady Clarina was so interested in my
production of a set of Beatitudes she had them framed and hung in the
schoolroom. They were considered worth claiming (if not stealing) when the
Kingstons left, for the set disappeared with them.
The school curriculum
took us as far as algebra and geometry in mathematics; English grammar;
history; geography and music. I might say when I left school at fourteen I had
a good graded school education with room for improvement. Physical culture was secured
by working in the garden, chopping some wood, running errands and playing games
with other boys. I was a good runner and played handball and marbles, fished
and hunted in boyish fashion with limited opportunities in contrast with what
my own boys enjoyed in their school days.
My father's pay
cheque was always far too small. In addition to his quarters and some
perquisites he never got more than thirty dollars a month. When he came to
Clarina he had my mother and four children to support and to live in a
neighbourhood none too friendly. It was five miles to Limerick for groceries,
clothing and other necessities. Father and mother walked there, seldom riding
on the gingel or long car so as to save the fare. They could not afford the 12
cents or 24 cents for the round trip (one shilling equal's 24 cents). The
'gingel' was a double Irish jaunting car used as a bus and drawn by a pair of horses.
There was no shelter from rain, wind, cold wind or hot sun. Coats and umbrellas
had to be used for that purpose. The wall of the gingel was used for packages.
There was a good sidewalk all the way to the city and most people walked so
there was always more or less company.
When Lord Emly
became Postmaster-General there was a telegraph station established at the Post
Office. The postmistress was also the operator. The instrument installed was
what was known as an A.B.C. machine with two dials. It was excited by turning a
handle and the words were spelled out by pressing a level placed opposite each
letter and figure on the sending dial. When a message was received the operator
was notified by the ringing of a bell and the message was spelled out on the
receiving dial for the operator. Of course the telegraph office had to have a
messenger and this was my first job. When carrying the message I wore
an official badge on my sleeve and so became a Government employee.
I had to walk.
There were no bicycles or cars, not even a donkey though I could ride if it was
available. Some days I got away from school to deliver a message. Other times
I. had to start out after night in the storm and rain. It was disagreeable to
trudge along alone in dark strange roads facing strange dogs and sometimes have
people object to paying the delivery charges. I had, however, the dignity of being
a telegraph messenger with Government belt and badge and of doing something
besides going to school. Meeting lords and ladies and nationally known people
who were kind and appreciative was worth considering as part of the reward.
In 1870 I had the
job of taking care of my new brother Jack. I remember well how my mother
emphasized the importance of having a brother and how I must take care of him.
It was my job to rock him to sleep and wait on him. His hair was black and
straight, and as he developed to brush it, dress him, wheel him in his
perambulator and watch him when he began to walk was a very prominent part of
my family duties. Kesia came later but I didn't have much to do with her. I was
getting too big for that. The sisters Jemima and Polly could do the nursing for
her. I don't remember Lucy as a baby. George was born and died after I left home
and so I never saw him.
There were some things
impressed on my memory as occurring in the political world. There was a strong agitation
for Home Rule under leadership of a man named Isaac Butt. The Protestants
called it Rome Rule because, if granted, it would be dominated by the Roman
Catholic clergy. As in the case of many agitations since the days of Catholic
Emancipation in the 1830-40's under the leadership of Daniel O'Connell self government
was held out as a cure for Ireland's political ills. Home Rule stirred up a
great deal of trouble for all Government officials. Threats and acts of
violence kept the Constabulary busy and special precautions were taken, such as
closing the barracks early, larger and better supply of rifles and ammunition
and extra patrols throughout the district to prevent acts of violence to
houses, farm buildings and stock, and the prevention of secret military drilling.
The British Government introduced about this time, under the leadership of Mr.
Gladstone, a measure for the Disendowment of the Church of Ireland. For many
centuries in Ireland, as in other European countries to this day, notably in
England, the church was supported from the tithes or taxes. The buildings were
Government buildings, the glebe or parish lands were State property, the clergy
were (ex-officio) magistrates or justices of the peace, no dissenter or Roman
Catholic was excused from supporting the Church of Ireland up to the time of the
passage of the Disendowment Act. This was the status of the Church of Ireland
before it became Protestant in the days of the Reformation. Gladstone recognised
the injustice of the situation and was supported by the Roman Catholic,
Presbyterian and other Churches in the proposed reform. To understand the
question one should spend some time in studying the question. To me in my
boyhood it was a matter of interest, especially because my pastor and my school
teacher, my church and my school were involved in the discussions. I was really
too young to understand the agitation.
The Franco-German
War in the 1870's came into our social life. The French Napoleon being the champion
of Roman Catholicism as opposed to Protestant Prussia and Bismarck brought
Protestant and British sentiment to the support of Germany. The struggle
between European nations along the lines drawn as a consequence of the French Revolution
and other influences made the Franco German War an occasion for the display of
Roman Catholic and Protestant partisanship. Irish Catholics volunteered for
French service, especially because France was regarded as anti-British. Lady
Monsell, a French woman, brought her social position into play for the French
and held a great bazaar on her private grounds for several days to provide
funds for the needy of Paris. Among other attractions was the Band of the 3rd
Buffo Infantry Regiment where I heard them play 'Kathleen Mavourneen', so I
have never forgotten the occasion.
Points of interest
in the neighbourhood were Lord Clarina's castle where many social events such
as fox hunts, rook shooting, pheasant shooting and balls were made brilliant by
the gentry of County Limerick and leading families of the city and the military
and Government officers stationed in the vicinity. A few miles away was St.
Patrick's Well, a town well supposed to date from the days of the Saint.
Southwest was the village of Adare where Earl Dunraven had his castle with a
demesne adorned with the ruins of ancient Irish abbeys as well as a beautiful
park. In this park stood an oak tree under which John Wesley preached in German
to the Palatines brought to County Limerick by Queen Anne to help them escape
from papal persecutions in their native Palatinate. One might conjecture with
much certainty that Philip Embury and Barbara Heck, who founded Methodism in
New York, heard John Wesley preach.
It was my father's
custom to go to a field meeting where Methodist preachers stood under the same
oak tree every year and preached the gospel according to Wesley. Here I might
say that my father always went to the parish church but would never bow his head
with the rest of the congregation at the recital of the name of Jesus in the
Apostles Creed. He considered it a mere formality on the part of the
congregation and added nothing to the real devotion of the heart. His family
prayer was conducted by reading the Scriptures and offering up a prayer in his
own words.
Other places have a
share in my thoughts about Clarina (the valley of ivy) -well named for ivy grew
luxuriously in old churches, old mines, old houses. It was the home of
thousands of English sparrows, and the destruction of their nests in spring was
necessary to keep yards and secure quietness in the early mornings and
The eight years I
spent in Clarina (September 5,1867 to August 15, 1876) were formative years
under the discipline of a father ~he did his best to raise his family of seven children who grew to
maturity in what my children would call poverty, a man who feared God and
loyally served his Queen and country for a miserable salary from a modern
stand-point. He was between an aristocracy he despised and a populace he had no
sympathy with in their political aspirations and an ecclesiastical system he
did not consider biblical and yet Lord Clarina called him his 'only friend' in
the neighbourhood, the priest of the parish and the rector made him welcome and
the community respected him. My mother! What pen can tell her love, her
patience, her tact, her self-denial, her piety her wisdom, her labour! My eyes
fill with tears when I think of the life she spent until, released from barrack
life, she dwelt in peace and comfort in her own home in Youghal, Co. Cork when
my father retired from the Royal Irish Constabulary.
Those eight years
in the Church School in the Church Sunday School, in the church choir under the
ministry of the Reverend John Mullock Maguire, M.A.I.C.D., gave me the
priceless heritage that I appreciate more and more as I advance in years.
Boyhood days came
to an end when my father and mother faced the problem of my life work. The rule
of the Government was that children must not live in the barracks after they
reached fifteen years of age. My sister Jemima had left home and was learning
the trade of dressmaker with a fashionable dressmaker in Limerick city. My
uncle James D. Corr had a grocery and bakery in Donegal and was willing to take
me as an apprentice for four years and would give me my board and clothes. He
would come as far as Dublin to meet me and my father. That was the best that could
be done so when not quite fifteen – fourteen
years and nine months - I left home and school to work as a clerk in my uncle's grocery.

If you have a graphics enthusiast's heart, but lack the wallet size to match, then ATI's Radeon HD 4850 is the kind of bargain you've been waiting for. It offers a solid performance in all but the most power-hungry applications, at a price that even a pauper could afford.
The gulf that separates casual gamers from their hardcore equivalents has just narrowed with the release of the ATI Radeon HD 4850. With 800 stream processors, a core GPU clock speed of 625MHz and 512MB of GDDR3 memory at 993MHz (1986 MHz effective) connected to a 256-bit memory bus, this 'mid-range' graphics card delivers an incredible amount of oomph for the asking price.
In terms of specifications, the HD 4850 is roughly comparable to NVIDIA's high-end 9800 GTX card, which just slashed its price tag to match its new rival. (A revised version, dubbed the 9800 GTX+, is also slated for release in the coming month.) However, if our benchmarks are anything to go by, the HD 4850 is more than capable of going head-to-head with the NVIDIA usurper. Simply put, it's currently the best valued mid-range graphics card on the market by a wide margin.
Before we get into the nitty-gritty, let's take a look at the Radeon 4800 series' new architecture. Much like the latest generation of NVIDIA cards, AMD's ATI Radeon 4800 series can be viewed as an evolution of its previous offering. Codenamed RV770, the new chip offers several notable improvements over the RV670 (as found on cards like the Radeon HD 3870). The most significant change is probably to the number of stream processors — up from 320 to 800. Other notable improvements include an increased transistor count from 666 million to 965 million, and a substantial boost in texture units (40, rather than 16). The HD 4850's core clock speed has been reduced from 775MHz to 625MHz, and its maths processing rate now sits at one TeraFLOP. Interestingly, the RV770 GPU also supports GDDR5 memory (though this isn't implemented in the current crop of cards).
What all this means is that the ATI Radeon HD 4850 offers a superior graphical performance compared to its Radeon forbearers at less cost to the consumer. Some of the other features new to the HD 4850 are enhanced DVD upscaling to HD, automatic video contrast adjustment and a revamped 'TeraScale' Graphics Engine geared towards high resolution gaming.
For the purpose of this review, we have looked at ATI's vanilla reference board, which the initial batch of HD 4850 cards should all be identical to (well, apart from the obligatory cyborg-babe/ninja-chick artwork, which is unfortunately absent). All the usual ATI features and connections are present, including two dual-link DVI outputs, component/S-video/composite ports and HDMI output support (a DVI-to-HDMI adapter is included in the sales package).
A single-slot copper fan sink takes care of your cooling needs — or at least, tries to. When idle, the card's temperature hovered around the 80 degree mark. (AMD's previous card, the Radeon HD 3870, rarely topped 40 degrees when not in use). Naturally, this could make overclocking an issue unless you take additional cooling precautions. On the plus side, the HD 4850 benefits from less power consumption, as indicated by its single 6-pin PCI Express power connector (peak power consumption is rated at just 110 Watts).
Another benefit of the HD 4850 is its support for CrossfireX. This allows up to four compatible graphics cards to be strung together in the one computer (and, if you're feeling loopy, up to eight monitors at the same time). If you're after an ultra-powerful gaming rig and already own a motherboard based on the 790 chipset, then a HD 4850 CrossfireX-configuration is a great cost-effective option.
Naturally, the Radeon HD 4850 also features support for DirectX 10.1: an incremental update to Microsoft's DirectX 10 API that was released with Windows Vista Service Pack 1. It provides minor graphical improvements (such as enhanced shader models) to DX10.1 compatible games.
In our DirectX 9 benchmarks, the HD 4850 returned some very impressive results for a mid-range graphics card. In 3DMark 2006 it received an overall score of 11861, which is a pretty good result in anyone's book. When we ran the game F.E.A.R. with maximum settings enabled, the HD 4850 averaged 89 frames per second (fps). In our Half-Life 2 performance test, the average frame rate was 169.65fps. Again, these are both very solid results for a graphics card in this price range.
When it came to our DirectX 10 benchmarks, the results were naturally less favourable. In Crysis, the Radeon HD 4850 averaged just 17.2 frames per second, which is all but unplayable. More impressive was Call of Juarez, which managed an average frame rate of 42.7fps. Lost Planet: Extreme Condition, meanwhile, returned a result of 27fps. While none of these results are exactly mouth-watering, it's important to note that this is not a high-end card. By contrast, NVIDIA's GeForce 9800 GTX — which originally retailed for twice the price — returned slower frame rates in all of the above games (12.6 for Crysis, 30.3 for Call of Juarez and 24fps in Lost Planet: Extreme Condition).

HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
I've had a multifunction printer in the office going on 10 years now. It was a neat bit of kit back in the day -- print, copy, scan, fax -- when printing over WiFi felt a bit like magic. It's seen better days though and an upgrade's well overdue. This HP OfficeJet Pro 8730 looks like it ticks all the same boxes: print, copy, scan, and fax. (Really? Does anyone fax anything any more? I guess it's good to know the facility's there, just in case.) Printing over WiFi is more-or- less standard these days.
HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
As a freelance writer who is always on the go, I like my technology to be both efficient and effective so I can do my job well. The HP OfficeJet Pro 8730 Inkjet Printer ticks all the boxes in terms of form factor, performance and user interface.

Took the first step today

Hello, forum! This site has given me a lot of confidence to pursue a reduction. I'm 41, mom of 3 (and done), and measure at a 36I. I've been thinking about reduction forever, but I never really felt like I had severe enough symptoms to get covered by insurance. Then, a few weeks ago, I started having numbness in my hands, with pain in the elbow and upper arm. My PCP (who has been documenting my symptoms for years) gave me a referral to a PS and set up an appointment with a neurologist to find where the nerve compression was. That appointment's scheduled for 9/26, but knowing that it may be awhile before I can get an appointment with the PS, I called today and made an appointment for a consult. And now I'm nervous, excited and everything in between. I've been binging on the reviews, Q&As and forum posts on this site and am glad to have found what seems to be a supportive environment to proceed with this procedure. Anyway, just wanted to introduce myself. I'll keep you posted on my progress. Thanks!

Imagine hitting snooze on your alarm for an extra 10 minutes, taking your sweet time in the shower, and having breakfast done without lifting a finger. You can live this streamlined reality if you start making slow-cooker breakfasts. Slow cookers are your best friend when it comes to cooking an easy breakfast during the week. Start it right before you go to bed, and when you wake up, you'll have a delicious breakfast for you and the kids to enjoy.
Click here for the 14 Slow-Cooker Breakfasts to Simplify Your Morning Routine slideshow.
While you get your beauty rest, let your slow cooker do the heavy lifting. Egg casseroles, maple oatmeal, hash browns, and grits are among the delightful breakfast foods that your slow cooker can easily produce. Enjoy maple-flavored steel-cut oats with cranberries first thing in the morning by combining water with oats, cranberries, maple syrup, and cinnamon in your slow cooker the night before. Cook on low for six hours — it's that simple. Normally, we go for the convenience of instant oatmeal, but now you can enjoy healthy steel-cut oats more often.
The best part about a slow-cooker breakfast is all the eggs you can have. While scrambled eggs take about five minutes to whip up, you may not have that time to spare, so make slow-cooked eggs with delicious veggies for a hearty and healthy breakfast that won't cut into your morning routine.
Want a few more slow-cooker breakfast ideas to streamline your morning? We have some to get you started:
Crock-Pot Egg and Broccoli Casserole

For years, I've prepared this filling egg casserole, which is delicious for breakfast or brunch, in my slow cooker. It's an unusual recipe for this appliance but is welcomed wherever I serve it. Folks always go back for seconds. — Janet Sliter

Using a slow cooker to make steel-cut oats means you can sleep in without having to worry about starting breakfast. Be sure to use steel-cut oats for this recipe, as regular oatmeal will not hold up to this length of cooking. If you like your oatmeal very creamy, you can cook it up to eight hours. — Weight Watchers

Syracuse Orange junior center Baye Keita has become known over his time with the team as being a defense-only option. The notion surrounding his has become, "He'll get you a couple blocks, a few rebounds, but don't expect any points."
But early on this season, Keita has shown that when he grabs an offensive rebound, he wants to put that ball in the basket, instead of taking the opportunity away from himself.
"Like coach taught me, I know we have the offense...but when you get the ball just go and take your time and score," said Keita. "I think that was the one thing that I've been focusing on was just like helping the team offensively than defensively."
Even if he is not the one who has the ball, Keita has been consciously working to aid his teammates in making sure they are successful on offense. "Sometimes I don't get the ball, but just set a good screen, get somebody else open because...it's like a team sport," Keita expressed. "Like you have five people and just have to depend on each one, every one of them. That was just a big thing."
Keita knows that without his teammates, his game is affected. He also has seen their want to give him an opportunity an offense. "Me depending on Brandon [Triche] every time I was gonna get the ball, Mike [Carter-Williams] every time, C.J. [Fair]...they've come up and they're gonna throw the ball to me, so I think that was a big thing," Keita stated.
At the same time, Keita has seen how Syracuse's success away from the basket opens up the offense more, and he is looking for his teammates as well. "I can be able to find Trevor [Cooney] or Mike or James [Southerland] to make a shot," said Keita. "And [Georgetown], they knew that James was gonna be shooting, so everybody was just pressuring him. So we were just finding somebody else to score."
More than in any other game this season, the Orange leaned on Keita to produce in their Big East Conference Tournament final four match-up with the Georgetown Hoyas. "[Versus Georgetown] they needed me," Keita remarked. "[That night] was just one of the nights I was just big on the offense and tomorrow I might be just labeled off, who knows. Rock (Rakeem Christmas) might be able to play tomorrow more or DaJuan [Coleman], so I think that just every night is just gonna be a different night. We just play hard every single time and just we go out and give everything we have."
Keita finished the game tied with Southerland and Triche as the team's highest scorer, with 13 points. More than half of those points came from the foul line, where Keita made 100% of his attempts, going 7-for-7. The rest of the Orange made six of 12.
Add in his one-handed putback off the glass in the seocnd half, followed by another cleanup make at the rim in overtime, and it is no secret that without Keita, Syracuse would have gone 0-for-3 in their final Big East season with the rival Hoyas.
This win in Round Three of the season series between Syracuse and Georgetown is special for Keita. "It means a lot," Keita shared. "They beat us two times in the regular season. [This] was the night to make a statement...really to show people that we have a good team and can beat them. So I think tonight was the night to make a statement."
Going 3-for-4 from the field and 7-for-7 from the charity stripe, while grabbing eight rebounds, six offensively, to go with an assist and a block. It seems fair to say that Keita made a statement. In fact, he put it in bold and underlined it.

Close call for Plaxico Burress, but the former NFL star wide receiver won't be returning to prison.
TMZ Sports is reporting that Burress pleaded guilty to tax evasion in New Jersey on Monday, and in the process, wiggled out of more time behind bars. Of course, this comes after Burress notoriously spent 20 months in prison from September 2009 to June 2011 for shooting himself in the leg in a New York City nightclub when he was a member of the New York Giants.
The retired NFL star could have returned to prison, as he was hit with two counts of tax evasion for failing to pay $48,000 in state taxes. Each count had a maximum five-year prison sentence. But Burress's plea deal allowed him to plead guilty — having to pay penalties and complete community service — in exchange for no prison time.
TMZ is additionally reporting that Burress already paid off his owed financial debt.
His rep also told the website that Burress didn't purposely evade paying his taxes, attributing the failure to pay them as a huge misunderstanding.
"He messed up. He knew he messed up. Everyone cooperated, and Plaxico paid the fine," his rep told TMZ. "From his past, he knows you can't mess with the government. He was more than happy to cooperate."

text: Video calling is a strange thing. When 3G phones first hit the market, the TV ads focused on the joys of video calls, but by and large, the feature was something of a turn-off all those years ago. Then suddenly Apple gets onto it with FaceTime and it's now 'flavour of the month'. Indeed, soon it will come in a Gingerbread flavour.By that, we mean is will be part of the next Android upgrade, also known as Gingerbread. That's likely to be Android 3.0, but could be a 2.x variation. Either way, video calling will be a key feature, along with a new interface and gaming optimisation when it lands in early 2011.According to Android and Me, engineeers are currently working to bring Google Talk Video to Android phones as standard. Andy Rubin, vice president of engineering at Google, admitted as much when he said: 'We support video chat today, with Google Talk Video. It works on the desktop. Whether that can be repurposed and made appropriate for sipping bandwidth for mobile, it's an exercise that's underway.' Manufacturers, including Motorola, are already planning phones with front-facing cameras - and that's unlikely to be worthy of the effort unless Google stepped in and supported them. With Apple's success with video calling, we suspect it's a certainty for that new update. So get practicing that smile, you'll soon be broadcasting to your Android-loving friends.

Increase your online credibility – and profit!
Posted on: November 29, 2008 | Author: admin
The internet is increasingly becoming an essential medium for businesses to engage consumers and capture market share. But while virtually every business these days has a web presence, how many of them are actually getting positive results?
An effective website does more than provide information about the goods you're selling or the service you're providing: it speaks volumes about the professionalism, competence and credibility of your business. Let's say, for example, that you visit a site that has attractive web design, engaging content and easy navigation. Your immediate response would be favourable, right? On the other hand, imagine that the site displayed sloppy, amateur web design and obscure content. What impression would you be left with about that particular business?
Creating a website which gets positive visitor responses is a fine art that requires broad expertise encompassing web design skills, understanding of consumer online behaviour, branding and communications.
Sydney web design agency, Quikclicks, can help your business achieve the online credibility that it rightly deserves and, above all, help you profit by capturing more of the market. To find out how contact us.

On Saturday morning I ran the Garden Spot Half Marathon in New Holland PA. I did not run more than seven miles at one time in the last month and my time showed that. I finished in 2:09:14. Even allowing a half-minute to get to the start line a pace of 9:50 per mile. My wife and I started together with Catherine, one of her running partners. Catherine dropped back right after the start so Annalisa and I ran together for the first eight miles. The out-and-back course was more uphill on the way out, more downhill on the way back. Annalisa is faster than I am, but I run better up hills, so I would go ahead up hills then she would catch up on the flats and fly downhills. She was way ahead on the downhill to the turn around, but at a short, steep hill on the way back, I caught up. The next big downhill she was gone. We finished a minute apart.
Terilyn, another member of my wife's running group, skipped the event , but brought Nigel and Jacari to cheer for Annalisa and I. She is good with a map and brought the kids to cheer for us at mile 5, miles 8 and mile 12. Some other people we know who were running told us afterward that Nigel and Jacari cheered louder than anyone else along the course!
Jacari ran the last mile with Annalisa. Nigel ran the list mile with me. When we got home, Nigel and Jacari ran another mile with me. They run at least two miles with me each day on weekends when I am home and sometimes during the week. On Sunday, we ran another two miles. Nigel was hurting on the second mile, but his brother Jacari stayed with him right to the end. Nigel did not quit and even put on a short sprint at the end. I finished third.
We sing Army songs when we run. It seems to help them. Some of them are Army classics "C-130 rollin' down the strip. . ." and some I make up. If I see one or both of the boys are feeling lazy, I make up a song with "My Little Pony" in it. My Little Pony is a very girlie toy advertised on the Cartoon Network. If I make up a line with "I wanna play with My Little Pony" they both straighten up and keep running.

–Practice schedule for Spring 2017 here—
The events in NYO have a history in the traditional games of our Alaska Native ancestors. These competitions tested abilities that were needed in the subsistence skills of the traditional way of life.

NYO events include the Kneel Jump,
Wrist Carry,
Eskimo Stick Pull,
Toe Kick,
One-Hand Reach,
Two-Foot High Kick,
Indian Stick Pull,
One-Foot High Kick,
Alaskan High Kick
and Seal Hop.
Students in grades 7-12 may join the NYO team. Practices will begin sometime at the beginning of March.
NYO is sponsored by the Cook Inlet Tribal Council; they host the state tournament and provide support and vision for the sport.
From their 2014 Handbook:
We believe in healthy lifestyles for young people reflected in the traditional contests of Native sports:
The purpose of the NYO Games Alaska is to promote:
- Healthy lifestyles, positive self-esteem, and leadership skills;
- Appreciation of Alaska Native traditions;
- Good sportsmanship through friendly athletic competition;
- Cross cultural understanding.
More information on NYO can be found at the Cook Inlet Tribal Council website.
