It's said you should never go to bed angry, but what about to the negotiation table? Researchers at Rice University and New York University suggest that ethnic backgrounds can influence the effectiveness of expressing anger in negotiations. In a series of studies, the researchers found that angry individuals of East Asian descent are perceived as tougher negotiators than their angry European-American counterparts, and consequently elicit greater cooperation at the negotiation table.
"There's no denying it -- emotions play a very important role in negotiations," said Hajo Adam, visiting assistant professor of management at Rice's Jones Graduate School of Business. "However, no prior research has investigated how the cultural background of the emotion expresser impacts the negotiation results."
Results from four studies revealed that angry negotiators are perceived as tougher and more threatening when they are of East Asian rather than European-American descent, despite the fact that both parties are perceived as equally angry. As a result, parties in a negotiation are more likely to make concessions to angry East Asian counterparts than to angry European-American counterparts.
Other findings:
Adam said he hopes the research will add to the body of literature on the interplay of culture and emotions in social interactions, especially as places of employment grow more diverse and rely more on interpersonal communication.
"The workplace is an increasingly diverse place, and it has changed dramatically in recent years," Adam said. "More and more, employees must interact with their fellow workers and other company stakeholders from different cultures, and emotions play a huge role in negotiating this interpersonal dynamic."
Details on the study procedures:
Study No. 1 recruited 98 participants (64 men, 34 women, average age of 32.01) from Amazon's Mechanical Turk website to participate in an online negotiation. All participants were from the U.S. and the vast majority of them (79.6 percent) were of European ethnicity. Participants were told they would be randomly matched with another user to conduct an online negotiation; in reality they negotiated with a simulated counterpart. Participants played the role of a project manager negotiating an IT contract and were provided with information about their counterpart, identifying them as European-American, Hispanic or East Asian. After participants made a first offer, they received feedback that read, "Wow, this offer makes me really angry. … I expect a better offer; I'm pretty pissed off." After receiving the message, participants were told the negotiation was over and were asked questions about their behavior intentions.
Study No. 2 included 120 participants (55 men, 65 women, average age of 33.24) from Mechanical Turk. All participants were from the U.S. and the vast majority of them (80.8 percent) were of European ethnicity. Participants were presented with a longer version of the same basic scenario as in study No. 1; however, instead of leading participants to believe that they were to negotiate with another participant, they were simply told to read a scenario and imagine how they would react to the situation. Participants were told that their counterpart in the negotiation responded to their initial offer in either an angry or an emotionally neutral fashion. The counterpart was described as either European-American or East Asian. At the end of the experiment, participants were asked what their final offer would be.
Study No. 3 included 288 participants (122 men, 166 women, U.S. college students with an average age of 20.58). Approximately half the participants were of European descent; the other half were of East Asian descent. Students were randomly assigned as "Student 1" or "Student 2" and were paired with a student of the same sex to negotiate how to work on a student project. "Student 1" was randomly assigned to one of two anger conditions: In one condition, they were instructed to express anger; in the other condition, they were instructed to remain emotionally neutral.
Study No. 4 included 110 participants (52 men, 58 women, average age of 32.27 years). All participants were from the U.S., and the majority of them (83.6 percent) were European-American. Participants took part in the study on Amazon's Mechanical Turk website and were told that they would complete two separate studies. In the first part of the study, participants were told they participated in a pilot test for another experiment. This part of the study actually assessed whether participants hold the stereotype of East Asians being emotionally inexpressive and European-Americans being emotionally expressive. In the second part of the study, participants engaged in a computer-mediated negotiation with a simulated counterpart who expressed anger throughout the negotiation and was described as either European-American or East Asian.
The paper, "Not All Anger is Created Equal: The Impact of the Expresser's Culture on the Social Effects of Anger in Negotiations," was co-authored by Aiwa Shirako, visiting professor of management and organizations at New York University, and is available online at http://bit.ly/101HGTI. Faculty research grants awarded to the authors by New York University and Northwestern University funded the research.

I just got a Webber Smokey Joe grill. Hopefully I can use it after I clean it up.
Question... How much charcoal do I use in this thing? I plan on grilling burgers and a couple of chuck roasts (2 inch thick steaks) I just got. My wife found a 5lb. bag of charcoal, but it looks like overkill.

My first visit to the Society of Genealogists many years ago was to their premises at Harrington Gardens and Anthony Camp was the director, he was very kind to a keen, but definitely novice family historian and introduced me to a wide range of records. I remember that the other people in the library were predominately male and seemed quite elderly. How things have changed in the genealogical world!
The society is now situated in Charterhouse Buildings, the director is Else Churchill and you see a wide range of members and visitors both male and female and of all ages. The society has recently completely redesigned their website and it is worth looking at even if you are not a member. Some of the records that the SOG hold are online for members to search who can't visit the library and a surname search can be undertaken. Of course if you wish to inspect the records that come up in the results you are required to join the society, but at least you have a good idea what is available and might be of interest.
There is an excellent range of online guides to genealogy which are free to look at, hints and tips and a list of the classes held onsite. The online library catalogue is great for forward preparation before a visit, library services are listed as well as the holdings of the book store. A unique strength of the collection is the Document Collection and the surnames within this collection have been catalogued and are available for searching.
The SOG site is well worth spending time on and familiarising yourself as to what the society has to offer.

1. Verify with
:ver that +perl or +perl/dyn is compiled in.
2. Install Perl if necessary. On Windows, ActivePerl is standard but any dependency-free perl58.dll will work if you don't need any other perl modules. If you don't want a full install of perl, copy perl58.dll from Strawberry Perl 5.8.x into the folder vim.exe lives and the commands below will work.
3. Type
:perldo s/searchme/replaceme/g
+perl/dyn doesn't seem to be necessary.
Or if you have ruby compiled in (look for +ruby in :ver output), you can use the following:
- Equivalent to s/pattern/replacement/g
:rubydo gsub /pattern/,'replacement'
- Equivalent to s/pattern/replacement/
:rubydo sub! /pattern/,'replacement'
The advantage of this tip is that when you know Perl regex well it's easier to write Perl regex than vi regex. Either is fine for simple expressions, but when the expressions get more complex its much easier to work with the syntax you know the best.
Perl regexes also have a different set of "special characters".
For example, the parentheses () are special characters that automatically do grouping and capturing in perl. In a vi regex, they need to be escaped (
\( \)) before they'll turn special.
Keep in mind that
:perldo is not always enough. Just try to replace something with a newline (
:perldo s/<text>/\n/<ENTER>). I get ^@ character instead of a line break. Yeah, I asked for it, but it's not what I wanted.
- Maybe it works to let Perl parse the \n instead of Vim? I don't have Perl support in my Vim, but maybe using \\n instead of \n might work. --Fritzophrenic (talk) 15:35, August 7, 2013 (UTC)
In this particular case, just use the old "perl pie":
:%!perl -pi -e 's/<text>/\n/'
For whatever reason (in my vim), I need to use "double quotes" instead of "single quotes" like this for substituting (hope this helps someone):
:%!perl -pi -e "s/<text>/\n/"
- This command relies on your shell to run Perl. So if your shell doesn't support single quotes it won't work. Windows in particular does NOT support single quotes in its default shell (cmd.exe). --Fritzophrenic (talk) 15:35, August 7, 2013 (UTC)
Script to search using PCRE in Vim: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/vim/message/49561
I know this is a small thing, but you might check out "\v", aka very-magic as a way to make the regular expressions less annoying and more perl-like. It would be nice if I could put set very-magic in my vimrc.
You can also define new command like this:
function s:Substitute(sstring, line1, line2) execute a:line1.",".a:line2."!perl -pi -e 'use encoding \"utf8\"; s'". \escape(shellescape(a:sstring), '%!'). \" 2>/dev/null" endfunction command -range=% -nargs=+ S call s:Substitute(<q-args>, <line1>, <line2>) " Example usage: S(<regex>)[<replacement>]<flags>
"<q-args>" produces an escaped and enclosed in double quotes string, problems with unicode are solved (I hope so) by "use encoding" statement.
There is a plugin eregex.vim doing the notation translate, from the Vim regex notation to perl/ruby stylish regex notation. However the document is written in Japanese. So I translate some content to explain how to use it.
- Install
Vimball file. Open it with Vim and execute :so % .
- Quick start
Add the following code to .vimrc file.
nnoremap / :M/ nnoremap ,/ /
Now you can use / to find. :%S// (uppercase S) to replace.
Original Version of eregex.vim is produced by a Japanese.

Welcome to Wednesday's The Crap We Missed which you get to enjoy while Fish and I stuff hot meat into our mouths. *rereads* Yep, I'm fine with how that sounds. In case you're wondering, yes, this is our "holiday party," occurring at 3:30 PM on a Wednesday at a Bánh mì shop in Central Pennsylvania, so that should go ahead and answer the constant question of "Seriously, how cool is your job?" We're white guys in our 30s who don't give a shit about sports. This is all we have left. So, while I gently dab Sriracha from Fish's cheek please enjoy today's human sacrifices, starting with James Franco in what I hope is that Duck Dynasty idiot's recurring nightmare from now on until he dies, Fergie with her before photo, and Rob Ford dancing, which if you imagine happening slowly and to 'Total Eclipse of the Heart' is the most magical thing that will happen to you today.

A Dinner PartyLogic puzzles require you to think. You will have to be logical in your reasoning.
At the dinner party, there were 5 people. They each had a meal. No one ate the same meal. They each had a different number of servings of food. (1-5). Also, each of them had a Bad Habit...
People at the Party: Miss Red, Mr Green, Mr Orange, Miss Yellow, Miss Blue.
Food they ate: Spaghetti, Beef & Veggie Stew, Caesar Salad, Soup, Lamb Roast.
Servings: 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5.

1. The person that was sniffing constantly, ate four servings of food.
2. Miss Yellow did NOT eat the Beef & Veggie Stew.
3. The female guest who ate the Spaghetti, helped herself to 2 servings.
4. The guest who burped throughout the meal (who was not Miss Blue) ate the Soup.
5. Mr Orange ate one less serving than the person who ate the Beef & Veggie Stew.
6. Both Miss Yellow, and the shifty-looking guest when back for more than one serving of food.
7. Mr Green, who did not speak loudly because he was too busy eating, had the Lamb Roast.
8. Mr Orange liked food that is messy.
AnswerMiss Red - Ate 1 serving of Soup. She burped constantly.
Mr Green - Ate 5 servings of Lamb Roast. Gave everyone shifty looks.
Mr Orange - Ate 3 servings of Caesar Salad. Was a very messy eater.

This new city I built in the Berlin region is not only the most profitable so far but it's also has the smoothest traffic ever.... until I built an ill-planned city block. The traffic rating then plunged to a worrying dark green. Fuck that, I'm gonna bulldoze that place
On last mission of Theme Hospital. Got figured out how to stop my machine blowing up and how to fight off epidemics as well as ensure my staff is well trained.
Only the beginning causes problems as you must expand as quickly as possible to ensure a nice constant flow of money. Last mission supposed to be much more difficult than rest of the game so I'll see how it goes.

Finally finished Kingdoms of Amalur!
It's a good game, but it feels like eating a fine peace of meat swimming in a mediocre gravy. The main story is quite good and well written, most of the secondary quest lines (guilds and houses) are also well done and the gameplay is superb. The fighting mechanics are not too complex, but they are much more than just press button until bad things are dead.
But the big problem is that it looks like the development motto was "more is better". So there are dozens of boring side quests (go to cave-->kill inhabitants-->bring back trinket/kill someone/rescue someone-->Go back-->collect reward--->sell reward), every character has tons of dialog options (all voiced) that add nothing to the game and the story and there are lots of walking from point A to B to C and back (there is fast travel, but it's only in the main map. not in dungeons and cities).
The game also looks very bland. It's nicely drawn and there are more than a few pretty places, but everything looks extremely bland with low-res textures and no lighting effects.
But despite all that I did had a good time playing it, but I think it's because I skipped plenty of side quests and dialog options (took me 60 Hrs to complete). I think that if the developers had focused more on telling an epic story and less shoving boring and pointless content, it could have turned into a big hit for them (but sadly nothing that can cover all their debts).
Next on the list: Continue my playthrough in Borderland 2, Hitman: Absolutely, Sleeping dog, Alpha Centaury.
Finally installed The Third Age mod for Medieval II Total War. I need something to keep my occupied till my hard copies of StarDrive and Masters of a Broken World get here. Dwarf power!
Thinking of adding MOS too but I don't want to push my luck.
I managed to get Star Wars Rebellion to start on win 7.
Only problem is that drop down menus don't work. So I can't change build orders, mission types and stuff like that :(
Also I can't save for some reason. And c3po spends ages explaining the game at the start. JUST LET ME PLAY GOLDENROD!
Edit: It seems that I skipped a step for enabling saves and that the drop down thing is because I'm playing it windowed. I'll check once I get home.

Playing Dishonored again. I gave up half way in my first play through because it was boring me. I think playing here and there instead of playing for hours on end like I did on my first time is a lot better. Trying to stealth again but the levels are just to light, its very off putting, its Thief's fault but I feel thats how stealth should be, in the dark coming out of the shadows. Anyway thats my main gripe with the game, combat is nice and meaty but thats not my play style, I'm a gentle man. I'm going to stick with it till the end.
Geneforge as well. The first one. I'm a hour in and I just love the ambient sounds in it. Birds in the trees, the hustle and bustle of a village, brings back the memories of diving in to Baldur's gate all those years ago.
Still playing Sins: Rebellion, still enjoying myself, but 20 hours in the weaknesses in the AI are becoming hard to miss. Difficulty settings are nothing more than "throw more resources at the AI" settings, the base AI itself is just dumb as a brick unfortunately. There's an upcoming patch that I'm hoping will help, but I'm already thinking about going back to AI War (300+ hours and counting) for my space RTS fix. The AI in that thing is outright demonic.

I've actually been playing The Old Republic.
I don't recommend it for most people, but when I played warcraft, it was strictly as a brain-off game that I could indulge in when I needed a break. It's mediocre, the combat is simple, and the story isn't a complex thing, but oddly these are why I enjoy it. It makes no demands of me. It doesn't require my focus. It's something I can do that's just absorbing enough to take my mind off everything else for a few hours, like a more sedate diablo. At that task, it's pleasingly more than adequate.
And I'd still rather KOTOR 3 existed.

North of the Misty Mountains at Mount Gunabad, 200 tired and bloodied Dwarves led by King Dain held a ramshackle fort against 1200+ heavy Orcs. The foul beasts threw everything they had at the main gate. The dwarves plugged the breach to turn it into a battle of attrition, but eventually the overwhelming Orc numbers began to tell. It was then that King Dain slew the Orc general (after the Orc's cronies tries to get a few cheapshots in) and turned the tide. Now Dain waits for his son to come from the west and combine their strength to march south and reclaim their ancient holds.
Enjoying Total War: The Third Age. Dwarves are interesting to play. They've got the best footsoldiers in the realm with the fertility of a bag of rocks, so being outnumbered is not uncommon.
Drake, the way you described that game instantly makes me want to play it. I've never heard of TW: The Third Age before, is it a mod or dlc or an expansion? TELL ME!!

08-05-2013, 12:16 PM #14713I am once again writing a blog, vaguely about playing games the wrong way
XCØM2 LØNG WAR CØØP Campaign Long War novices Welcome, now with 100% more laser guns!
In case of forum degradation pull cord.
http://www.moddb.com/mods/third-age-total-war and follow the instructions. I had the discs though, didn't have to look at the Steam instructions. Took me a couple of hours to get it working (mostly download time and lack of experience with mods), but it was so worth it!
I'm amazed it hasn't been locked down by now. It is indeed an amazing mod. Total War series really does get some of the best mods.
Howling Banshees are absolutely the most annoying things I tried to kill in Dark Crusade. They always mass up and they always wreck my shit up and worst of all, they won't even drop after getting pelted by machineguns for God's sake! Looks like I have to use the Muhreens again but even with that I'm not sure
Brütal Legend: This game should be one of the most amusing and awesome third person brawler games of the past generation. Its not totally offensive for someone who likes metal, its Double Fine humor, its got a boatload of variety it looks great and and and... god damn! This should be brilliant!
Its not brilliant though, as it plays like crap. I think JG Man here summed it up quite well for how far I am in (only a couple of hours) in that if you are not really into metal there is not much here worth staying for. I'm just waiting for the "Halford" moment that the game is hinting at, and the "Kill-master" made me chuckle, but then again, like memes, unless you know the context behind the joke its possibly not going to be funny.
With BL I just felt that the surrounding part of the game was not good enough to boost the simply bad game-play up enough to make it bearable. And even then, I think there comes a point where no matter how good the surrounding material, if the game is really that bad, I'm sorry, but I have to leave it. Obviously that depends on tolerance, but more and more lately I'm finding myself in the position that there are so many games out there, many of a not insignificant length, that why would I want to play sub-standard games when I could be playing others that are objectively superior? I dunno. I was let down by BL even after knowing that it was really an RTS, but neither that or the hack'n'slash were developed enough, nor enough variety in content, that I could be kept interested. And it's a shame because so much effort went into it. So much!
Essays aside, I've played a few minutes of Super Hexagon to remind me that I bloody love it, but also that playing it simply a few minutes at a time isn't enough to get back into it. Also, everyone should buy this game because it's bloody fantastic. Played a little more Deus Ex: Human Circle and it's still enjoyable. I like the direction the plot is going on, but I have a feeling the way I'm playing it it's going to be a long time until I get to the conclusion. Every so often been dipping into the Sonic Unleashed mod for Sonic Generations. Completed 7 out of the 9 levels, with the last two left being the ones I don't really enjoy too much. The mod is fantastic though and I strongly recommend anyone who played Generations to pick it up. Adds a lot of very fun, very cool content. Oh, and tons of PlanetSide 2. Pretty dang great.Powered by Steam. And biscuits. I'm also a twit and dabble in creative writing.
BL felt like it was made backwards though; starting with all the styling and concepts before trying to get the game done last. There is a lot of love in it, and I very much doubt it would work as a cartoon as well (I found Metalocalypse to be very bland or just outright backward, despite the humor being in the same vein), just I wish they got the basic mechanics correct in at least the hack and slash parts.
I do wonder who the target audience is with this though. Half the "TRUE" metal heads I've known are some of the greatest Luddites I've ever known, to the point where certain people couldn't operate a Playstation because it was "too complex".
Played through Spec Ops: The Line in one sitting. Enjoyed (guess that's the closest word to the right way of putting it) the story and gameplay for the most part, but the ending assault to the tower can go right ahead and fuck itself. I died a ridiculous amount of times at that part, and those just felt like cheap deaths.

this is a new hotel, room and bed linen are clean. Breakfast is fine too. a little difficult to find hotel, staff are not familiar with local travel attractions.
Highly recommanded for its cleanliness and location(just in the cubic house), the staff is very friendly!
the design of the hostel was interesting which complements the rooms well
rooms are really well-designed and clean! the internet connection is too expensive.
The hostel was a few months older and perfectly clean. The cubic design of Overblaak is a must see and fun to stay.
stay at the cube design hostel, breakfast with a variety to choose from The ceiling on the top bed is extremely low that i could not sit up straight (i am only 5 foot 4). could not even do the sheets and the ceiling always hit my head whenever i get up. Also no kitchen facilities to cook. The reception lady wanted to charge me the original price rather the discounted price
Comfy room. The wireless was paid but I had access from my room. Breakfast was nice :)

Historic start for Felix doesn't end in Mariners win
Ace extends record-setting run, but Davis lifts O's with homer in 10th
SEATTLE -- Felix Hernandez put his name alongside Tom Seaver in the Major League record books Friday with another pitching gem, but the Mariners' ace was more concerned about not having a win to go along with it.
Despite seven innings of one-run ball from Hernandez, Seattle endured its fourth straight setback when the Orioles rallied in the 10th inning for a 2-1 victory that continued a troubling trend for a Mariners club that has now fallen out of position for the final American League Wild Card slot.
The Mariners have scored two or fewer runs in 12 of their last 18 games and are 1-11 in those contests. They've lost 10 of their last 14 overall to fall to 53-50.
Hernandez settled for another no-decision, but he recorded his 13th straight start of seven or more innings while allowing two or fewer runs, breaking the American League record of 12, previously held by Hall of Famer Chief Bender of the Philadelphia A's in 1907, and tying the Major League record set by another Hall of Famer, the Mets' Seaver in 1971.
"It doesn't matter, because we lost," Hernandez said. "It's all about the team. It's about winning. … It means a lot for myself, but I don't care about myself. I just care about the team."
Hernandez allowed one run on five hits over seven innings, with 10 strikeouts and no walks, before turning the game over to the bullpen with a 1-1 tie.
The no-decision left Hernandez's record at 11-2, while he lowered his AL-leading ERA to 1.99. Over his last 13 starts, the five-time All-Star is 7-1 with a 1.36 ERA, but he has no-decisions in three of his last four outings despite allowing just three earned runs in those three games.
It was Hernandez's 35th career no-decision when he allowed one or no runs and the 29th time he's received a no-decision when allowing one or no runs in a start of seven or more innings. Since Hernandez debuted in the Majors in 2005, the second-most no-decisions with seven-plus innings and one or no runs is the Giants' Matt Cain with 18.
But the five-time All-Star refuses to get caught up in any woe-is-me games. Hernandez came into Friday's contest with the highest run support of any Mariners starter this season at five runs per game and he said there's no panic over the recent offensive downturn.
"It's going to come," Hernandez said. "We always talk, me and Robbie [Cano] and all those guys talk. It's going to come. We have a lot of talent in here and these guys are going to hit."
The AL East-leading Orioles improved to 57-45 with the win and knew they'd earned this one.
"I don't think you ever go into it trying to match him. You are just trying to keep the scoreboard close to what he's doing," Baltimore manager Buck Showalter said. "He's special. Everybody in Seattle knows that. Very few pitchers you will see that have that good of hand and can manipulate the ball and do so many things with it. He almost invents pitches out there. What people miss, he's got such a great feel for pitching."
After giving up a second-inning home run to Nelson Cruz, Hernandez trailed, 1-0, until the Mariners finally ended a string of 15 scoreless innings when Cano tripled in the sixth and scored on a sacrifice fly to right by Kendrys Morales, playing his first game since being acquired from the Twins on Thursday.
Cruz scorched a first-pitch fastball over the left-field fence on a line drive leading off the second, just the sixth home run Hernandez has given up in 22 starts this season.
"That was a fastball away that just ran into his bat. I think if [third baseman Kyle] Seager had jumped, he'd have caught it," Hernandez said with a wry smile. "That was a rocket."
Cruz, who signed a one-year deal with the Orioles after eight seasons with Texas, is one behind White Sox rookie Jose Abreu for the league lead in home runs with 29 and has 75 RBIs. Cruz has five career home runs off Hernandez in 62 at-bats.
The Orioles, who are tied with the Blue Jays for the most home runs in the AL with 125, won it with Davis' blast off Charlie Furbush on a 1-2 slider leading off the 10th.
"It was up in the zone and he hit it out of the park," Furbush said. "It was the pitch I wanted to throw, I just left it up."
The Mariners struggled to come up with timely hits once again, stranding runners at third in the first, third and fourth innings and going 1-for-10 with runners in scoring position for the game.
When they did bunch some hits in the fifth, they got nothing out of it in a strange run of events. Brad Miller walked with one out and Endy Chavez followed with a sharp single to the right side, but Miller was out on that play when the ball glanced off his foot as he tried to leap over it while running to second.
After Chavez stole second, James Jones singled to left, but Chavez was easily thrown out at home when he was sent by third-base coach Rich Donnelly.
Cano opened the next inning with a leadoff triple and scored on Morales' fly ball to right fielder Nick Markakis, with Cano slapping the plate as he slid home around the tag of catcher Caleb Joseph.
The game ended on an overturned call. After recording the first two outs of the inning, Orioles closer Zach Britton fielded Cano's comebacker, turned and fired high. Davis corralled it, although Cano was originally called safe. After a review, the call was overturned to end the game.

Let Bill Bryson take you back to a forgotten summer when America came of age and changed the world for ever: and show you why he is our favourite writer of narrative non-fiction.
Britain's favourite writer of narrative non-fiction Bill Bryson travels back in time to a forgotten summer when America came of age, took centre stage, and, in five eventful months, changed the world for ever.
In the summer of 1927, America had a booming stock market, a president who worked just four hours a day (and slept much of the rest of the time), a semi-crazed sculptor with a mad plan to carve four giant heads into an inaccessible mountain called Rushmore, a devastating flood of the Mississippi, a sensational murder trial, and a youthful aviator named Charles Lindbergh who started the summer wholly unknown and finished it as the most famous man on earth. (So famous that Minnesota considered renaming itself after him.)
It was the summer that saw the birth of talking pictures, the invention of television, the peak of Al Capone's reign of terror, the horrifying bombing of a school in Michigan by a madman, the ill-conceived decision that led to the Great Depression, the thrillingly improbable return to greatness of a wheezing, over-the-hill baseball player named Babe Ruth, and an almost impossible amount more.
In this hugely entertaining book, Bill Bryson spins a story of brawling adventure, reckless optimism and delirious energy, with a cast of unforgettable and eccentric characters, with trademark brio, wit and authority.

Discussions To Continue on Regional Spotted Seatrout Management Options for Lower Laguna Madre
AUSTIN, Texas — Anglers in the Lower Laguna Madre could see spotted seatrout bag and size limits that are different from those in effect in other bay systems as early as September 2007.
A regional management plan for the Lower Laguna Madre is one solution being considered by Texas Parks and Wildlife Department coastal fisheries biologists to address a downward trend in both the number and size of the popular game fish being landed in Texas' southernmost bay system.
In a briefing to TPW commissioners Aug. 23, Randy Blankinship, TPWD's ecosystem leader for the Lower Laguna Madre, said that the department's data shows that good numbers of spotted seatrout are being recruited to the fishery. Still, Blankinship said, fewer fish over 20 inches are being landed, even though fishing pressure has remained constant or even slightly increased in recent years.
"Because coast-wide trends are positive and the Lower Laguna Madre is the only bay system exhibiting negative trends in spotted seatrout, a regional management approach appears to be one option to accomplish the goal of maintaining a world-class fishery," Blankinship told commissioners.
Spotted seatrout still flourish in the large, hyper-saline bay, which boasts more than 185 square miles of seagrass meadows. Catch rates for speckled trout, as they are commonly called, are measured in number of fish caught per hour or "catch per unit of effort."
Coast-wide CPUE has continued to rise. In the Lower Laguna Madre — from the Land Cut down to South Bay — the CPUE has been declining. The catch rates in the lower Laguna Madre are still high as compared to other bay systems, but clearly are not being maintained at historical highs.
"This is not a fishery in crisis," Blankinship said in an interview. "There is no danger of spotted seatrout stocks collapsing; it's more a question of reversing these trends and getting a high quality fishery back to the very high quality fishery we have historically known."
Blankinship acknowledged that two fish-killing freezes during the 1990s, the drought of record for South Texas and reduced freshwater inflows may all be factors in the fishery trends.
"Ours is basically a two-pronged approach of dealing with long-term environmental issues like habitat and water quality in conjunction with fisheries regulations," said TPWD Coastal Fisheries Director Larry McKinney, Ph.D. "While we can often influence management of environmental factors we do not control them. We do control fishing regulations and action there can have more immediate and positive results."
McKinney said any proposed regional management plan would be submitted to the Commission as part of the standard statewide hunting and fishing regulatory process.
The commission will be updated in November on these considerations and then the formal process typically begins with a briefing of the proposed rules in January before the commission.
A regional approach to coastal fisheries species management would be a change in a philosophy where coast-wide management (equivalent bag and size limits) have been the norm.
In considering regional management approaches, fisheries managers would be considering the biological implications of the rules as well as shifting fishing pressure which may impact adjacent areas and other species; the ability of game wardens to enforce different regulations and the ease with which anglers can comply with different regulations; and the socio-economic impacts to local communities.
Coastal Fisheries will be holding a series of additional scoping meetings prior to the November commission meeting to discuss specific management options.

Liberty Hands UNC Asheville 1st Home Loss, 3-0
Behind a season-high .297 hitting percentage, Liberty swept UNC Asheville, 3-0 (25-23, 25-19, 25-17) on Friday at the Justice Center. In the process, the Lady Flames broke Asheville's 12-match home winning streak, dating to the 2012 season.
The two teams entered the match as part of a three-way tie for third in the Big South. Liberty improves to 9-17, including 8-5 in conference play. UNC Asheville (17-12, 7-6) suffered its first loss in the Justice Center this year after opening the season 8-0 at home.
For the match, Liberty outhit Asheville, .297-.200, while holding a 6-2 advantage in blocks and outdigging the Bulldogs, 70-66.
Three Lady Flames recorded double-doubles on the evening. Redshirt sophomore Caroline Douglas scored a match-high 13 kills in addition to 10 digs, while senior Lillie Happel recorded 10 kills and 10 digs. Senior Jade Craycraft totaled nine kills, 38 assists, 10 digs and three blocks. Junior Gabrielle Shipe collected 25 digs, giving her seven 20-dig matches on the season. Redshirt senior Kendle Rollins contributed nine kills and three blocks, while senior Becca Haraf chipped in with 13 digs.
For Asheville, Rachel Wells led all players with 41 digs, as she totaled nearly two-thirds of the Bulldogs' digs. Christine Lakatos recorded 10 kills, while Anna Moore contributed nine kills. Katie Davis dished out a team-high 34 assists.
The Lady Flames controlled play early on, holding a 19-14 advantage following a Happel kill. UNC Asheville battled back, staging a 7-2 rally and tied the set, at 21-21, after an ace from Alex Stewart. Craycraft then recorded a block and an ace, making it 23-21, Liberty. After three rally points, Racz sent down a kill to seal the 25-23 set-one victory.
Liberty outhit Asheville, .264-.224, during set one, with the Lady Flames posting four blocks. Lakatos scored eight kills, while Wells collected 19 digs during the set. Douglas recorded four kills for Liberty.
The visitors raced out to a 19-9 advantage in set two, with Happel and Douglas scoring four kills apiece during the early surge. UNC Asheville scored the next three points, beginning to chip away at the deficit. A Moore kill brought the Bulldogs to within three, 21-18. The Lady Flames outscored Asheville, 4-1, down the stretch, with back-to-back Douglas kills clinching a 25-19 set victory.
Liberty hit .383 during the second set, compared to .239 for Asheville. Happel and Douglas had seven kills apiece for Liberty, while Madison Vaughn scored five kills.
Similarly to set two, Liberty built a 10-point lead during the final set, 22-12. A four-point Asheville run ensued, capped by a double block from Vaughn and Catherine Fischer. The Bulldogs could get no closer, and the Lady Flames' 25-17 set-three victory put the finishing touches on a 3-0 sweep.
Rollins scored on all five of her attacks during set three, as the Lady Flames hit .237. Both teams recorded 18 digs, with Shipe and Wells collecting 10 digs apiece.
The Lady Flames close out their 2013 regular-season schedule tomorrow, with a 4 p.m. match at Gardner-Webb, inside Paul Porter Arena.

CHILDREN and families in Andover had the opportunity to get creative on Tuesday when the Makendoo Craft Crew visited The Chantry Centre.
This was one of many workshops run for Eco Kids Club members, who could have fun and learn at the same time.
The Father's Day themed event inspired children to make best dad and star dad hats, banners and flags and personalised cards.
They also made British Lions and Brazillian carnival hats, in the run-up to the World Cup.
Steve Cotney, manager of the Chantry Centre, said: "The craft workshops provide fun-filled activities to keep the children amused whilst helping them to learn."
The workshop is part of a year-long programme of events that will be held in The Chantry Centre.
The next one will be on 29 July.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 18/4/2013 (1587 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
The Twitterverse is a living, breathing organism. And just like the people who populate it, there are times when it behaves in strange and mysterious ways.
Like Thursday, for instance, when it suddenly erupted, apropos of nothing, with all kinds of tweets -- most of them emanating from Calgary -- that the Winnipeg Blue Bombers and Calgary Stampeders are in negotiations that would see Calgary QB Kevin Glenn shipped to Winnipeg in exchange for the Bombers' second overall draft pick next month.
This is patently false. Here is what is true: The Calgary Stampeders would love to trade Kevin Glenn -- and they have all winter -- to the Bombers in exchange for Winnipeg's top draft pick. And the Bombers have no interest -- and they haven't all winter -- in that deal.
Why it suddenly became a Twitter story, your guess is as good as mine. But the reasons why the Bombers have no interest in that particular deal did come into crystal clear focus Thursday with the release of the CFL Scouting Bureau's final rankings of this year's draft class.
What emerged from that document is that the reason the Bombers have no interest in a tired CFL retread in Glenn (who has proven at every step of his CFL career, including in Calgary's playoff run to the Grey Cup game last year, that he is just good enough to lose) is that unlike Glenn, there are players in this year's draft class that the Bombers truly could build the team's future around.
Three of the top-five prospects in this year's draft class are defensive linemen and two of them -- second-ranked Stefan Charles and third-ranked Linden Gaydosh -- generated a huge buzz at this winter's evaluation camp in Toronto, with some observers saying either man could be the kind of non-import ratio changer on the Bombers defensive line that Doug Brown was for 11 seasons prior to his retirement after the 2011 season.
Play that potential scenario out against bringing the 33-year-old Glenn back to Winnipeg this season to provide an experienced backup to Buck Pierce and it's little wonder Bombers GM Joe Mack ain't buying what Calgary GM John Hufnagel is selling.
It's instructive to remember that Bombers management, and the team's fans, ran Glenn out of town in 2008 after five seasons of watching Glenn demonstrate in a Bombers uniform that for a myriad of reasons, he does not have what it takes to win a Grey Cup.
Yes, Glenn led Calgary to the Grey Cup game last season, putting up numbers in relief of injured Stamps starter Drew Tate that were similar to the ones he posted in his final season in Winnipeg, but with a better TD-interception ratio.
But in the only game that really mattered last year, Glenn found a way to lose yet again, throwing a disastrous interception early in the second quarter of the Grey Cup that Toronto returned for a touchdown to go up 14-3. By the end of the half, it was 24-6 Toronto and the Argos were on their way to a Grey Cup and Glenn was on his way home, again, empty-handed.
Stampeders management, which is expected to go with Tate as their starter and Bo Levi Mitchell as their backup in 2013, are hoping the Bombers are so desperate right now for an experienced backup to the oft-injured Pierce that Mack would be willing to literally mortgage the Bombers' future to plug the hole.
Now, there's no question Glenn is a much more experienced backup than the three backup QBs the Bombers are bringing to mini-camp next week -- fourth-stringer Justin Goltz and CFL rookies Max Hall and Chase Clement.
And there's also not much question, given Pierce's recent injury history, that sooner or later in 2013, the Bombers are going to need a backup quarterback to take some snaps.
But to bring the aging Glenn in now to fill that role would be to simply repeat the same mistakes the Bombers have made for years now, putting a short-term Band-Aid on a long-term quarterback problem -- which is precisely how the Bombers got themselves in their current conundrum to begin with.
And to make matters worse, meeting Calgary's asking price for Glenn would mean they would also have to give up a potential franchise-changing draft pick next month.
Now, one caveat: If Calgary drops their asking price for Glenn -- or, even better, simply cuts him later this spring -- the equation changes dramatically for the Bombers and Glenn becomes a much more palatable option.
But for now, the Bombers have decided they are going to ride Pierce this season as long as the Bombers pivot can carry them, while at the same time hopefully grooming one or more of Hall, Clement and Goltz as the man who will eventually take over the starting role.
It's a gamble, of course. But sometimes the bigger gamble in life is not in taking a shot, but in not taking one.
No, the Bombers don't really know what they have in Goltz, Hall or Clement. But they do know what Calgary has in Glenn -- a man who has played 12 seasons in an eight-team league and is still looking for his first championship.

Compare great Chevrolet Scratch Repair prices in Hendon with Who Can Fix My Car.
They did a good job very quickly
Amazing garage find - had urgent problem and they bent over backwards to fit me in today, Saturday - fixed my car and rat a easonable cost - will be taking my car back for all future servicng etc as excellent service and Boss and staff great, thank you so much for finding this garage for me . - highly recommend .
Quick and good value. I would go back!
was very happy with the service
good work, great people, good quality
Very good service! Robert replied to all messages within minutes, the repairs and MOT were done within 1 day for a very fair price. Would definately go to C and R again.
I was very happy with the level of customer service and care and attention they paid to my BMW and to explaining the issues to me. They were very thorough and have a great family feel about them. The price was fair and I would most certainly recommend them to others. I will definitely be doing business with them again.
Efficient service, got booked in straight away
Robert provided great communication throughout. The final price reflects additional work required to replace the air con unit, as well as an interim service I requested. Would be happy to recommend, very professional service.
Pros: good documentation of the service Cons: they don't work with customer's parts and i would have expected them to use Castrol Edge, not Magnatec, which was quite expensive (49gbp for 4.5 l)...agree customers can fail bringing the correct parts but don't think it's a valid reason. Also, gbp 120 plus vat for an oil change, i think that's too much and the oil is not even the best one. They should inform the customer amd agree on the spare parts/ oil. Using after market spare parts should be an option. Next time I will go for a service where i can use my own spare parts and oil/ cooling liquid. However, if you agree with their way of car service, you should go for it.
One of the best - will recommend anytime - I will definitely go there again to get my car serviced and for further work - They completed the work as promised and also done few other minor repair... Very friendly staff members... Thanks You.......
Great experience, nice people, will definitely use again
was very happy with the service
Very good service
Not only did they do the work on the same day, very quickly, charging reasonable prices, they were also top guys. Would recommend without hesitation.
Great service and did a great job on repairing a dent that I had on my car. Have a flexible approach and was able to book the car in at short notice. Would definitely recommend
Very good
Definitely Recommend this garage, great staff, very welcoming and friendly, gives honest advice and good service. Extra things were done without charge. A++++++++
You cannot trust them either..they didn't make oil change and they charge me 30£ for that job, what didn't do, some unreliable..i'm sitting customer room and i cannot see, what they do..watch out this garage..i cannot recommended them ! They try to charge brake discs too, discs not always need to change same time, when pads..
Job could have been done a little bit quicker but very good service overall!
Very friendly people good service.
Great service. Mechanic was helpful.
very happy with the service
great job
Had some extra work done
Amazing service by Billy and the team. Not just the repair job itself but arranging in advance and then the service on the day (he even gave me a lift to the nearest station to get to work!). I would highly recommend.
What an amazing experience! Very competitive price. Great communication and customer service skills. The job was very well done and even went above and beyond without asking a single penny! I will definitely use again and recommend it to friends&family.
Had a faulty O2 Sensor on my 116i, shopped around and I was getting ridiculous quotes, thankfully 4 Fab Wheels got in contact with me and offered me such a reasonable price in comparison to all the other garages. On the day, Billy greeted me and kept me updated throughout the course of the day. I can go on forever about how great the team are so in a nutshell, fantastic hospitality, tremendous customer service and would absolutely recommend without a doubt. A huge thank you to Billy and Gary!
With this garage you DEFINITELY get more than you pay for! also they are very fast with repairs along side with that he also keep you updated on the progress of the repair's on your vehicle. They are that good & professional I WILL be recommending this garage to my friends & family.
Job done. Very friendly staff.

Shopping TripLogic puzzles require you to think. You will have to be logical in your reasoning.
Janet and her husband were out shopping when they decided to split to save time. They agreed to meet back at the bank at 2:00 PM. Janet realized several minutes later that she had forgotten her watch and asked a lady nearby for the correct time. The lady's watch was five minutes fast, but she thought it was ten minutes slow. Janet's husband also forgot his watch so he asked a passing gentleman for the time. The man's watch was ten minutes slow, but he thought it was 15 minutes fast. Taking into account the errors in the watches, who arrived at the bank first, and what time did they arrive?
AnswerJanet got there first at quarter to two. She was told a time that was actually 15 minutes faster than the true time. Her husband, however, arrived at twenty-five after two, as he was told a time that was 25 minutes slower than the true time.

THOUSANDS of women turned up at Pitchcroft this morning to show their support for the fight against cancer in this year's Race For Life event.
The racecourse beside the River Severn became a sea of pink as participants in the run gathered from across Worcester and beyond for the race, which for the first time this year, included a 10km as well as a 5km course.
Organised by Cancer Research UK, this year's event attracted some 3,000 participants, on a level with last year's event, and organiser reckon to have raised £161,000. As well as women of all ages, boys aged 13 or under can take part.
Emily Baddeley, the area marketing manager for Cancer Research UK, said: "When you see lots of women coming together for the same reason, it's a wonderful feeling of togetherness."
Participants wore pink t-shirts, many bearing labels written the named of loved ones who have had cancer. Many of the runners augmented their costumes with pink wigs, cowboy hats, rabbit ears, deeley boppers and other accessories.
And family and friends turned out in force to support the runners, who, after taking part in a mass-warm up, took to the courses.
The first runners finished the 5km course in a little over 20 minutes, but the spirit of the event was in taking part, not winning, and cheers were loud for all those who participated, whether they ran, jogged or walked the course.
Louise Hutton, running as part of a team from the Royal Grammar School's Grange prep department, was one of the early finishers. She said: "I'm really pleased to have done it and delighted that so many of our team have dome well. This is the first Race for Life I've done here in Worcester, although I've taken part in other in Wiltshire."
Another early finisher was Catherine Mullen of St Peters, who said: "It's a bit of a shock to me that I've finished so quickly; I only started running four months ago.
"This is a fantastic event. It really brings people together, not only the girls taking part, but all the family members, husbands and boyfriends who come to support them."
And Emma Parker, 29, of Kidderminster, said: "I started running at Christmas to take part in this event, and I've been running three times a week in training. I'm really glad I finished it, I'm going to continue running and next year, I'll do the 10k. It's such a great event."

Aveda Smooth Infusion Hair Care.
Far from being my 'crowning glory' my hair is actually my worst nightmare! I have hair that happily resides in 'neither here nor there' land when it comes to attributes and seems to have a mind of its own: oily & flat at the roots but some days I get amazing root lift; dry ends that are fragile no matter how many 6wk hair cuts I maintain; easily straightened but immediately ruined by humidity; some days does exactly what I want and others not... I curse that I was not one of the fortunate (and rare?) people who has 'normal' hair! However, I was recently sent a sample of the new Aveda Smooth Infusion Style Prep Smoother and not only am I loving it, so is my hair. It protects against heat & humidity for up to 12hrs, applies super lightweight and doesn't feel as though I'm either coating my hair in an oil slick, or weighing it down with too much product, plus I can use it before drying & styling and after to get rid of frizzies and seal ends. It may or may not be the hair Holy Grail but it's workin' for this girl! PS... there's also an entire Smooth Infusion line, in case you're interested.

John Masters can remember a time when 11 or so years ago he hung a sign outside his salon in Manhattan saying that the salon was organic, natural & eco-friendly... and people laughed at how 'hippy' he was. How brilliantly just, that he should have the last laugh as one of the world's most successful and widely respected organic brands. Using only the finest certified organic & natural ingredients combined with an extremely savvy approach to formulation, there is a focus on sustainable, fair trade and conscious business practices that few companies can match. Although they've been around for years, the simple, clean, honest and modern design has never lost its appeal. Shine On is a natural, leave-in hair treatment that uses organic kelp in place of synthetic silicone, smoothing the hair shaft & giving a gorgeous shine and great volume, without weighing hair down or creating oily build-up. Excellent to strengthen and fortify all hair types including fine hair. The result is supernatural shine & softness, all day – every day. Shine on baby!

Marketing Sponsored by
Every successful product starts out the same way—with an inspiration; that "gotcha" moment when the proverbial light bulb goes off and the big idea you were looking for appears before you. Inspiration is the key, but it's just the beginning.
The hard work and heavy lifting that you put into researching the validity of your inspiration, the effort you put into creating and sustaining a market for it is what makes the difference between the good idea that tanks and the good idea that turns into a successful business. And that's where things get tricky. How do you take your new product and transform it into a successful brand with a growing and diversified number of SKUs? How do you expand a product line? How do you decide what the best new direction will be? Do you keep tweaking your own original idea or do take a different direction that complements but doesn't mirror your original line?
My own method is to ask myself: "What am I personally missing? What would I like for myself? What about this existing problem isn't solving all of my problems?"
In the last 10 years, my company, Spongeables, has launched two successful brands, and we are in the process of introducing a number of others. We've come up with a template that works. Of course there are no guarantees. You have to have the right product at the right time. You have to devote time and effort, unstintingly, to selling the product, to publicizing it, to creating a market that did not previously exist. A little luck along the way doesn't hurt, either.
Spongeables introduced the first shower gel infused body buffers. The product came about because I was tired of my toddler getting into the shower and spilling my expensive cleansing gels and skin lotions. My husband and I developed the concept of an all-in-one product with everything you needed already infused inside the buffer. We devised formulas that included skin care ingredients and hand-blended fragrances, found the perfect vehicle for the infused formulas in a buffer that changed texture as it absorbed water, and sought patent protection for our new idea.
Since we were bringing out a completely new product, our next step was to introduce retailers and consumers to something they had not seen or used before.
Getting the word out means getting the press on your side. I met with the top editors at every important magazine, and put product directly into their hands. We set up an information system, providing them with photos, product, give-aways, story ideas and press releases, making it as easy as possible for them to give us the coverage we needed. We created a celebrity following by working with publicists to put our body buffers directly into the hands of Jennifer Lopez, Kate Hudson, Halle Berry, Helen Mirren and most of the biggest names in Hollywood. We used product placement services to put our body buffers into gift bags and top Hollywood events. And we actively sought coverage on the Internet, reaching out to bloggers and reviewers with information and samples.
Producers of every major show were on our hit list, as were producers at every television station in the country. When we signed up a new spa or salon to sell our product, we provided them with local press contact information and press material. You don't need to spend a fortune in advertising if you are willing to work hard for editorial coverage. It takes longer, but the effort pays for itself many, many times over.
Our marketing focus was on beauty salons and spas, so we contacted trade publications serving that market and provided them with story ideas, new product material, whatever they needed to give us the coverage we required.
It took two years, but we managed to create a niche for ourselves. We started winning awards, and when we did, we made sure every spa and salon in the country knew about it. We sent them monthly newsletters with special offers. It's not enough to have a great product, you have to give your retailers a good reason to give you some of their very limited space, and their clients and customers a good reason to pick your product.


text: Show Hide image Politics 1 May 2013 Keeping my Freedom Pass, blowing things up from inside and the invisible crime wave Peter Wilby's "First Thoughts" column. Sign up for our weekly email * No, I shall not be handing my pensioner perks back to the Treasury, as Iain Duncan Smith suggests. There's no knowing what the government would do with the money. Most likely, it would spend it on further tax cuts for the rich. There is something perverse and illogical about making a benefit available and then asking people to give it back. Though winter fuel allowances arrive automatically if you are over 62, the simplest way for the rich to forgo their free bus passes and, if they are over 75, free TV licences is not to apply for them in the first place. No doubt they could also insist on paying for their prescriptions and eye tests. I have never heard of anybody doing so. Though most rich people, I'd guess, wouldn't wish to take the bus (such a rough ride and so many poor people), affluent residents of Greater London cheerfully use the Freedom Pass, which allows Underground travel without charge, and often boast about it, as Joanna Lumley did the other day. The government has trouble persuading many rich folk to pay taxes that are legally required, so why it expects them to surrender benefits to which they are entitled is unclear. Introducing voluntary principles to financial transactions between state and citizen is to move into dangerous territory. How long before ministers suggest that the 45p rate of income tax paid by high earners should be optional? Grey expectations Many people talk about pensioner perks as though they were part of the fabric of the welfare state. In reality, they were introduced quite recently, mostly by Gordon Brown, as electoral bribes. It has dawned on politicians that the old can swing elections. Not only are pensioners the group most likely to vote, their numbers are growing. Those now reaching or approaching pensionable age came to maturity in the late 1960s and 1970s, when the political tribes began to dissolve. Unlike previous generations, they do not have fixed voting habits; they are biddable. Several writers, including the universities minister David Willetts, have lamented how young people face worse prospects than their parents did – but it would need a brave and skilful political leader to redress the balance. Spat's entertainment What fun to follow the Twitter dispute between the BBC political presenter Andrew Neil and the Kent University journalism professor Tim Luckhurst. It ranged over Neil's role in launching Sky TV and Luckhurst's brief tenure in 2000 as editor of the Scotsmanwhen Neil was editor-in-chief. The spat culminated in Neil offering to "pay to straighten your teeth", presumably after he rearranges them in a bout of fisticuffs. I was reminded of how, in one of his less inspired moments, Geoffrey Robinson, then the proprietor of the NS, arranged for me and some colleagues to visit Neil at his London offices. We were to seek his wisdom on how to boost circulation, which, as Neil demonstrated to us with graphs, he had done (it turned out temporarily) at the Scotsman. The PowerPoint presentation concluded, we awaited his magic formula. "Ye blow it up from the inside!" he barked. "Take an old, established institution and blow it up!" Crime and reason The explanation for falling crime figures, which, against predictions, continued falling during austerity, eludes even the most omniscient commentators. Michael Howard's claim that it's because, as home secretary in the mid-1990s, he started locking up more criminals doesn't make sense because crime is down across the developed world. My theory is that crime hasn't actually fallen – it has just changed. When your bank rings to notify you of "unauthorised" use of your debit or credit card, you probably don't think of yourself as a crime victim. The bank tells you to shred the card and sends you a new one. Neither you nor the bank informs the police. You don't, therefore, show up in the figures. For the criminal, this and other forms of "invisible" crime, mostly online fraud, make perfect sense. Why work unsocial hours burgling houses in dangerous conditions and risk getting cold and wet when money can be made sitting in comfort at home? My theory admittedly doesn't account for the fall in violent crime. Until you think that the internet offers ample opportunities for violence in a different form. See above. Ill manners The University of Buckingham Press has sent me a slim and rather eccentric volume, Defying Decrepitude, written by the university's former vice-chancellor Sir Alan Peacock, a distinguished economist. At 91, Peacock reports from the distant land of extreme longevity on how visits to surgeries and clinics play an increasing role in life as the body falters. What he doesn't know – because it wasn't true more than 20 years ago, when he was in his sixties – is that medicine now intervenes long before anything is wrong with you. I have no significant illness or disability and have never spent a single night in hospital (I touch wood as I write). Yet I am required to visit my local surgery regularly for tests and reviews and, each morning and evening, to ingest a variety of medicines. We used to see doctors when we were ill, hoping they'd make us well. Now, we see them when we're well, hoping they don't make us ill. Peter Wilby was editor of the Independent on Sunday from 1995 to 1996 and of the New Statesman from 1998 to 2005. He writes the weekly First Thoughts column for the NS.

On May 29, 2013, the Federal Court of Canada (FCC) released its decision in TeleTech Canada Inc. vs. the Minister of National Revenue (the Minister). The case relates to TeleTech Canada Inc.'s (TeleTech Canada's) request for judicial review of the Canada Revenue Agency's (CRA's) decision to refuse to provide double tax relief in response to its request for competent authority (CA) assistance under the Convention between Canada and the United States of America with respect to Taxes on Income and on Capital (the Treaty). In particular, TeleTech Canada sought an order of mandamus compelling the CRA to accept its application and submit the matter to binding arbitration pursuant to the Treaty.
The FCC dismissed the application, essentially holding that TeleTech Canada's application for judicial review was statute-barred as it was not brought within 30 days of the CRA's decision. In any case, it could not have compelled the Minister to accept the CA request because the Minister's power in this regard was discretionary.

Gave in and clicked.
CraveOnline: Joss Whedon is also a master of killing off beloved characters. Im actually a little worried about you.
Clark Gregg: Yeah, Ive read this! Ive read this. Im flattered that people care, but I wish they would stop saying this because theyre going to put it in somebodys mind! Im talking to them about doing Iron Man 3 right now, and somebodys going Maybe Agent Coulson should die, and Im like, Hey, hey, hey! This is the best job Ive ever had! Stop talking about killing Agent Coulson off.
CraveOnline: (Laughs) Fair enough.
Clark Gregg: No, no, no. I talked to Joss Whedon early on. I said Hey, why is everyone saying this? And he said, Yeah, Ive done that before. Dont worry. Youre safe.
Jesus christ.
Maybe he is stabbed like rong said.
But he also posted interviews where robert downey and some others did an extra scene. Maybe thats related to it?
The person died when she/he tried to use a weapon on Loki to save Thor
Wooaah shit, they are user reviews, the even still, looks like this is going to be pretty fucking awesome.
You get to see his face. Albeit CGi generated
Nick Fury and Loki
too many spoilers on this thread
I'm out of here, I may end up clicking on something by accident
Thor vs Iron Man
apparently the movie theater i go to is doing a marvel marathon leading up to a midnight unveil of the avengers.
This is pretty cute
Just got my tickets to the Marvel Movie Marathon IMAX 3D.
i'm gonna get to go see this a few days before the US release, my friend works at a theater and asked if i would want to see it at an employee's screening.
'Avengers' Mondo poster series. Five more to come
Since the embargo is gone, reviews have started coming
Rating classification as well
100% so far?
18 for 18 so far.
My guess is a high 80's score though. There's just too much hype for everyone to like this movie.
Booking tickets right now.
It comes out on the 25th of April in Australia. And we're the second country in the world in terms of timezone (Just after New Zealand), so basically i'll be one in one of the first sessions screening to normal audience
Can't fucking wait!
lmao so many angry people over the first negative review (it's actually a 3/5, a lot of people are just angry its being counted negative). Just wait until the New York screening. For some reason New York critics just hates super hero movies.
Oh god, She called 'Nick Fury' 'Nick Frost'
No one is going to be happy about that.
Also it's funny comparing her other reviews. Apparently it's as good as 'I don't know how she does it', but not as good as 'Drive Angry'
Has anyone heard anything about having spiderman in any of the upcoming Avengers films?
Was the hulk movie good?
Because that's the only one of the series I did't see
Going to see this Sunday with my brother and my dad then again after college monday with mates
The only good thing about the Hulk movie was the final fight
Who was nothing special
just came back from the midnight screening. joss whedon have my babies you magnificent bastard
I too have come back from a midnight screening. It has exceeded my expectations.
Got tickets for saturday in an IMAX cinema. Sweet ass.
Joss Whedon's on a role this year.
First The Cabin in the Woods and now this seems to be getting great scores.
Banthafodder is a moron.
Sitting in the cinema, all the 3D sessions were sold out. But we have some kickass seats, a hitload of food. Been waiting for this for 5 years.
I wish to have sex with Josh Wheadon. My god...It's amazing.
Well, mid-credits scene leaked
I have no clue what exactly that just showed.
