|Barenboim and Said
I don't need to spell out the bitter irony encapsulated in this. I'll just provide the conflicting missions of WEDO and PACBI. Think what you will of Edward Said but even he might be appalled by the descent into pure denial of humanity of Israelis that is inherent in this strategy by those who claim to represent Palestinian civil-society.
Here is a brief excerpt from WEDO's mission: "The West-Eastern Divan Orchestra has proved time and again that music can break down barriers previously considered insurmountable. The only political aspect prevailing the West-Eastern Divan's work is the conviction that there will never be a military solution to the Middle East conflict, and that the destinies of the Israelis and Palestinians are inextricably linked. Through its work and existence the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra demonstrates that bridges can be built to encourage people to listen to one another. Music by itself can, of course, not resolve the Arab-Israeli conflict. Music grants the individual the right and obligation to express himself fully while listening to his or her neighbour. Based on this notion of equality, cooperation and justice for all, the Orchestra represents an alternative model to the current situation in the Middle East."
Artists4Israel has posted an open letter to PACBI, and Sarah AB at Harry's Place demonstrates how muddled with contradictions is the rage against normalization. Predictably, the UN has been forced to 'postpone' a WEDO concert in East Jerusalem due to the "objections of some groups."

Ranbir Kapoor and Anushka Sharma along with Boman Irani are going to host the most anxiously anticipated upcoming Times of India Film Awards (TOIFA). The event will be hosted on 6th of April, at BC Place, Vancouver BC.
Apart from Ranbir Kapoor and Anushka Sharma hosting the show the other highlight is that other B-town biggies like Shahrukh Khan, Katrina Kaif, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Abhishek Bachchan and Priyanka Chopra are gearing up to perform on stage. And rumour has it that Bachchan junior and his lovely wife Aishwarya Rai Bachchan will share the stage and do some hot numbers. Well it certainly will be very interesting to see Aishwarya and Abhishek dance together after the very hot Kajra re performance at IIFA.
Looks like the organisers plan on making the Award show a big hit and have left no stone un turned. The Awards promise to be a night of entertainment and glamour like Vancouver has never seen before with mind-blowing performances and Bollywood's biggest celebrities and the people of Vancouver will certainly remember the first Times Of India Film Awards (TOIFA 2013) for years to come.

Beyoncé Laughs Off Pregnancy Rumors, Literally [Video]
Over the weekend, Beyoncé–alongside a killer line-up of fierce femmes–hit the stage for Chime For Change: The Sound of Change Live Concert. During a pre-show interview with TODAY's Savannah Gunthrie, Blue Ivy's mom deflected a question about the ever-swarming pregnancy rumors that began after B's Mrs Carter World Tour performance in London.
"I would be remiss if I didn't give you a chance to dispel any rumors about whether you're expecting," Gunthrie asked. Beyoncé jokingly responded with, "What kind of rumor? Huh?" I don't know what you're talking about" before breaking out into hearty laughter with Selma Hayek and Frida Giannini.
Looks like B isn't handing out any exclusives just yet. Press play.

Home to bustling market places, luxury boutiques, enormous
department stores and the largest shopping mall in the Nordic
countries, shopping in Helsinki has its fair share of
opportunities. They may not always be cheap, but the quality of the
goods makes them worth their sometimes hefty price tags.
Best buys in Helsinki include reindeer furs, Nordic wool, traditional wooden kitchen utensils and jewellery made out of Finland's national gemstone, spectrolite, which captures the magnificent blues and greens of the Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights). You can also find liquors made from locally-grown cloudberries, cranberries, and Arctic brambleberries that make unique and special Helsinki souvenirs.
Head to Itäkeskus in East Helsinki, the biggest shopping centre in Scandinavia, where nearly 240 shops selling everything from clothing and shoes to sports equipment and cameras will keep you on your toes. The Sello shopping centre in Espoo in the west of the city provides a slightly less exhausting day of spending and the Stockmann department store on the Aleksanterinkatum, which has become somewhat of an institution in Helsinki, sells everything from electrical goods and clothing to make up and teddy bears. Shopping streets in Helsinki include Aleksanterinkatu, Eerikinkatu, Fredrikinkatu and Uudenmaankatu where boutiques and specialist stores can be found.
Market Square at the eastern end of Esplanadi is undoubtedly one of Helsinki's most popular tourist attractions and a great place to scoop up some souvenirs, especially during the spring and autumn months when vendors selling fresh Finnish produce, souvenirs and trinkets abound and the mix of Finns and international visitors make this vibrant market electric. Petrolheads should visit the market on the first Friday of the month when a display of old American cars lines the seaside square, while October brings much excitement as the annual Helsinki herring market takes place.
Shops in Helsinki are generally open from 9am to 5.30pm from Monday to Friday while on Saturdays stores only stay open until 2pm and remain closed on Sundays.

Liberal internet news site Huffington Post has egg on its face after it ran a story accusing Fox News Channel of deliberately removing the verbal flub GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney made while introducing his running-mate, Paul Ryan, as "the next president of the United States."
It was a small error but since liberals are always eager to portray themselves as more intelligent, the minor gaffe immediately entered the Democratic bloodstream. After all, everyone knows that a verbal misstep is the perfect counter to three-and-a-half years of more than 8 percent unemployment.
Hipsters across the nation took great glee (while trying desperately to remain nonchalant) in replaying YouTube clips of Romney's error.
Since Jon Stewart hadn't aired yet, it was the duty of the Huffington Post to find a way to bring Fox News into the punchline. What better way than to promote an accusation that the cable news channel had "doctored" the speech footage to make it look like Romney had not actually messed up.
It was a perfect story. Sadly, it was also utterly false.
In fact, Fox News had done no such thing. Romney had introduced Ryan as the next vice president on more than one occasion. Anyone who had watched the speech in its entirety would have known that. But such people were in short supply at the liberal blog billing itself as the "Huffington Post" news website.
Thanks to Alex Alvarez at Mediaite, we have the full text of the now-retracted story. I quote:
When Mitt Romney introduced his running mate Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wisc.) to a roaring crowd on Saturday, he flubbed the line and caused a bit of a stir by referring to his VP pick as "the next President of the United States."
Romney later corrected himself, explaining he is not immune to mistakes. But if you happened to catch the clip on Fox News you might not know he butchered the line at all.
A reader points The Huffington Post to footage from 12:33 ET on Fox News that appears to have been doctored.
In it, Romney's gaffe is noticeably absent. Instead, the former Massachusetts governor introduces "the next Vice President of the United States."
Watch the clip above.
Moments later, the inevitable retraction was issued:
A HuffPost story about Mitt Romney making a mistake during a speech incorrectly indicated that Fox News had edited the video clip to correct Romney calling Paul Ryan the "next President of the United States." Fox News actually aired footage of another part of Romney's speech in which he did say "Vice President." We regret the error, have removed the story, and apologize for the mistake.
Once again, we see yet another instance of how allegations against people and institutions perceived to be non-liberal are just too good to fact-check. Incidents like this one are sadly far too common because most elite journalists operate on the standing assumption that all Republicans are evil and stupid and Fox News is Satan's mouthpiece.

This is a compilation of reference sites for FBML and FBJS developers.
If you add to the thread I'll compile them all into this post for easy reference.
Facebook Reference Site for Developershttp://developers.facebook.com/
thanks i have not seen resources of facebook all in one place but i think another good place as a developer is -official developers forumhttp://forum.developers.facebook.net/(they say .net is temporary and will change it .com later)Good things about thereyou have atleast similar people who understand your language-but most of them will just listen to you and may not be able to help you )I have seen some official people answering some question there nowproblemsVery few experts there.Sometime question like 'does xyz do this?' are also not answered
Plus problem with facebook platform is it tends to change too oftenwhat was working on 2009 was not working on start of 2010 and what was working on start of 2010 is not working now...and i strange things i find about it is they totally deprecate things esp function voilating software development basic principles
(the older code should always work,i have seen php 3 tags such as $VAR_HTTP_POST['NAME'] even working till now though php6 has already released ....)
Another suggestions:If you are planning to buy book to learn,donot buy books not published in 2010-The older books will only work to get theoritical knowlegde but codes of those book may not work now which will fraustrate you only....esp way the feeds are posted,notification etc are much changed now..)

The kittens are now one week old, they have names and the countdown to them opening their eyes has started.
I am very impressed in the way Phoebe allows me to get close to them. I mean I have only touched them once, but she leaves the room when I'm in here and has no problem with me being next to them when she isn't here. That is very odd, considering I read in a few places that cats are very, very protective of their kittens, even if they are otherwise mellow. Well, Phoebe isn't.
I'm at the moment planning my room to be safe for them, a plan which is now labelled 'Operation Kitten-Safe'. It involves moving my bed out [I'll have to sleep on a mattress on the floor], tying all the cables up [not too sure how yet] and removing anything dangerous or anything they could endanger themselves with. It may be early to start with it, but I want to make sure that I am well prepared. After all the next few months are going to be stressful.
I should hopefully receive some money in two weeks as well which is when I'll hit the petshops and buy everything! Well, not everything, just the essentials:
- 2 litter trays
- 8 bowls [4 water, 4 food]
- a big sleeping bed for them
- a climbing tree thing
- enough kitten food to feed an army [of 4 kittens!]
- 4 collars
- several cat toys
And that is just the start….
I'll take some more photos of them this weekend and possibly try and take a little video as well, although there isn't much to see at the moment. That will all change once they open their eyes next week.
Talking about kitten and cats, many have commented on my current avatar. Here is the image in it's full glory. It made me laugh a lot when I first saw it as it was very fitting for the situation when I needed it.
Sometimes it does indeed feel good to be a gangsta! :D
Oh and last but not least, I hope everyone remembered to put the clocks one hour forward last night?

SIMON Gardner was delighted to see smiles back on the faces of his Calne Town players after they finally bounced back to winning ways in style last weekend.
Calne had gone nine games without a win in the Toolstation League First Division but brought their miserable run to an end by firing six past bottom-of-the-table Portishead Town at Bremhill View.
Gardner hopes hitting the goal trail represents a change in fortunes for the Lilywhites.
"I've sounded like a broken record in the last few weeks but we've just not been getting the luck we've deserved," said the Calne chief.
"We've been playing well but it's the silly mistakes and not taking our chances that's been costing us. We've actually played a lot better than we did on Saturday and not won those games.
"I had our captain Neurin Jones say a few words before the game because, with all respect to Portishead, they were bottom of the league and we needed to be taking three points.
"They certainly didn't deserve a 6-0 drubbing but it was great to see the smiles back on the faces.
"It was a far cry from what the dressing room has been like recently and hopefully the boys can start enjoying things again.
"If we can keep playing like we did last weekend then there's no reason why we can't get back to picking up points and push ourselves up towards mid-table, which is where we should be."
Top scorer Glenn Armstrong headed the Lilywhites in front from Tom Slater's cross before Mark Dolman made it 2-0 with a superbly-struck free-kick.
Dolman whipped another set-piece into the top corner early in the second period before Jamie Jordan steered the ball home after a driving run.
Armstrong slotted home his second of the afternoon after he was set up by Liam Ralph before substitute Stuart Windsor nodded home to complete the rout.
Calne travel to Welton Rovers this weekend.
Park find the right formula for success
DAVE Ferris reckons his Chippenham Park side are playing without fear at the moment after they notched up a fourth win on the trot last weekend.
Mark Robinson blazed a first half penalty wide of the mark after Ryan Campbell was tripped in the area but Luke Murden fired home a free-kick to see off Wellington at Hardenhuish Park.
"We understand that there are some good sides in this league but my lads don't fear anyone at the moment – they're playing with confidence," said Ferris.
"I think that the Wellington manager (Mike Hawes) summed it up best on Saturday when he said that we simply wanted it more.
"We've always prided ourselves on our defensive capabilities and the back four were superb but the midfield four were absolutely phenomenal in tracking back too – they're a good side but they only had two shots all game.
"But we've got to play Wellington again this weekend and I do think that it's going to be a different game."
Ferris also believes that young goalscorer Murden, who began the season on the fringes of the Chippenham Town squad, is getting back to his best.
The Park manager said: "Luke broke his ankle at the start of the season and I think the injury affected his confidence a bit.
"He has struggled with his fitness too but I think that in the last two or three weeks, he's been enjoying his football again.
"He's a lad I believe could well be playing at a higher level than the first division of the Western League but we're hoping to have him for the rest of the season and we'd love to keep him beyond that."
New boy Hamilton makes his mark
CORSHAM Town notched up a second 1-1 draw in five days as they were held at Roman Glass St George on Wednes-day night.
Both sides found the net in the first half, with new Corsham striker Jackson Hamilton grabbing a goal for Trevor Rawlings' men on his first start.
But the two teams couldn't be serrated in the second period as it ended all squad on Roman Glass' artificial pitch.
Meanwhile, the scoreline was the same last weekend as Rawlings' side picked up a point against promotion-chasing Welton Rovers at the Southbank.
The visitors' James Moon shot over the bar before a spectacular overhead kick from Welton's Anthony Conradi was kept out by Corsham keeper Kent Kauppinen.
But the hosts broke the deadlock five minutes before half-time, with a cleared corner finding its way to Nick Holton, who held his nerve to put Corsham ahead with an effort drilled low into the net.
But the visitors roared back and levelled things up soon after the break, with Dan Cottle's cross from the left flank bravely headed home by Conradi.
Ben Moore wasn't far off-target as he looked to restore Corsham's lead while Kauppinen denied Welton's Moon at the other end as both sides claimed a share of the spoils.
While his side have been left kicking their heels in recent weeks, Rawlings has been able to bolster his squad, bringing two players back to Corsham along the way.
Forward Jamal Chevolleau returned against Welton after re-joining from near neighbours Calne Town while Aaron Ledgister has signed dual-registration forms, with the winger featuring against Roman Glass on Wednesday.
Corsham take on local rivals Warminster Town at the Southbank tomorrow.
Flowers is hoping to kick on
MANAGER Justin Flowers has his fingers crossed that another agonising spell of heel-kicking isn't in store for Corsham Town Reserves after their derby victory over FC Chippenham Youth.
In the only game to survive the elements last weekend, a last-gasp penalty saw Corsham claim a 2-1 victory on the 3G pitch at Stanley Park.
Flowers was delighted to see his side take all three points in their first outing for almost a month and is hoping the weather won't put paid to this weekend's trip to neighbours Wilts Calne Town.
"We hadn't played for a long time and it's been really frustrating – hopefully we don't have to wait another month to play again because this weekend is a big one," he said.
"Speaking to people about Chippenham's game against Devizes last week, I was told it was a game of two halves because of the wind, so we tried to use that to our advantage.
"We went ahead when a corner kick went all the way into the net but we got pegged back, which we were really disappointed about.
"Liam Fullam got kicked off the ball right at the end and the referee didn't see it but the linesman gave it. I could hear the kick and it was refreshing to see the lino have the courage to give it.
"We were fortunate to get the chance to score a second but I definitely thought that we deserved it."
Darrin Moss' whipped corner-kick curled all the way in via a deflection off the post early on before Chippenham pounced to level the scores at 1-1.
But when Corsham were handed a spot-kick at the death, Adam Mitchell fired home a dramatic winner.

A number of Europeans tourists presumed to have been kidnapped in the Sahara desert of southern Algeria have been found more than two months after going missing.
The 10 Austrians, six Germans and a Swede are said to be in good health and preparing to return home.
However their respective governments are declining to give details of how they reached safety because of concern for a further 15 tourists who are still missing.
"We expect everything will be done so that the lives of the European hostages still detained in the Algerian Sahara will not be endangered," a German Government spokesman told reporters.
The Algerian army said on Wednesday it had rescued the group of 17 who, it said, had been kidnapped by an Islamic group allegedly linked to Osama Bin Laden's al-Qaeda network.
It said the foreigners had been freed unharmed after an assault by government forces on a hideout of the Salafist Group for Preaching and Combat (GSPC) on Tuesday.
However it said all the necessary precautions had been taken to avoid putting the lives of the remaining captives at risk.
The 32 adventure tourists were travelling without guides in a number of groups using four-wheel drive vehicles and motorbikes when they disappeared between mid-February and mid-March.
Announcing the release of six Germans, Interior Minister Otto Schily said he could not give more details.
'Dawn raid'
Speaking on German television he described the situation as "precarious". But he said there was hope that the 10 Germans would soon be free.
These developments come a day after the German Foreign Minister, Joschka Fischer, spoke of hostage-takers for the first time.
Mr Fischer visited Algeria on Monday, where he held talks with President Abdelaziz Bouteflika.
He told reporters that he had urged Algerian officials "not to use force to try to free the hostages".
Asked who might be behind the kidnappings, he said: "I can't and don't want to answer this question, in the interest of the family and friends of the missing people."
But Salzburg governor Franz Schausberger told Austrian press and radio that he had information that the hostages were freed in a raid by an Algerian task force.
"In my view, this positive end is basically the result of the relatives' capability for endurance, but also of the excellent cooperation between the
Austrian and the Algerian authorities," he told Radio Salzburg.
The Algerian daily newspaper El Watan claims that nine kidnappers were killed in the dawn raid near the Sahara desert town of Tamanrasset, 1,900 kilometres (1,200 miles) south of Algiers.
In the past few weeks there had been growing European pressure for the Algerian authorities to resolve the mystery surrounding the tourists' fate.

CBS to broadcast Duke vs. North Carolina in prime time
Posted June 29, 2010
New York — CBS Sports, college basketball's leading network broadcaster, has announced that the Duke at North Carolina game will be broadcast in prime time on Saturday, March 5, 2011 (8:00 PM, ET). This marks the first time that the Duke-North Carolina rivalry will air in prime time on network television.
"It is an honor for the Duke-North Carolina game to be placed on this stage – for us, for the ACC and for college basketball," said Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski. "Hopefully the game will live up to that level of expectation."
The Duke-North Carolina game highlights CBS Sports' 30th consecutive season broadcasting college basketball. The entire 2010-11 CBS Sports college basketball schedule will be released later this year.
"Duke-North Carolina is one of the most intense rivalries in all of sports," said Mike Aresco, Executive Vice President, Programming, CBS Sports. "A primetime telecast on CBS Sports will generate enormous interest across the nation as the 'Road to the Final Four®' heats up."
Duke has won the last two meetings in the series, including an 82-50 win at Cameron Indoor Stadium in the regular season finale a year ago. The 32-point margin of victory was the second-largest for Duke in the series and third time the Blue Devils won by 30 or more points. Krzyzewski is 34-35 all-time against the Tar Heels, including a 19-9 mark since the 1999-00 season.

It Is Up to My Country to Ensure that the Grauer's Gorilla Does Not Disappear
A report by WCS (Wildlife Conservation Society) and Fauna & Flora International (FFI) documents the collapse of the world's largest great ape- the Grauer's gorilla – due to a combination of illegal hunting around mining sites, civil unrest, and habitat destruction.

Steve, both the Pentax format PEF's and DNG's use Loss Less JPEG compression (Huffman) to compress the files and not the usual lossy JPEG compression used for final output files; Pentax DSLR DNG's have been compressed since the K-7 and K-x including the K-01 and the K-30, with the introduction of the PRIME2 and PRIMEM hardware imaging engines, whereas the original PRIME hardware imaging engine used in the K-10, K-20, K-200, and K2000/K-m did not support DNG compression.
The 'Q' does not use a PRIME anything DSLR hardware imaging engine and it seems neither raw compression nor the faster raw data file handling of the latest PRIME engines are supported. This may reflect that it is actually an older design for which introduction was deferred until sensor technology got good enough, as has been rumoured.

Chris Harrison, Brooke Burke-Charvet to Host ABC's 2013 MISS AMERICA
The Miss America Organization and ABC announced today that CHRIS HARRISON and Brooke Burke-Charvet will return to host THE 2013 MISS AMERICA COMPETITION which will be telecast live from the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas on SATURDAY, JANUARY 12, 2013 (9:00-11:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network.
"Once again, we are thrilled to announce that Chris and Brooke are returning to host the 2013 Miss America Competition, the most watched non-sports program on a Saturday night for almost two years," said Sam Haskell, III, Board Chairman of the Miss America Organization. "Chris and Brooke are a wonderful team, and together they helped us achieve record ratings on ABC last January, and we are so proud to welcome them back for another incredible television event. Chris and Brooke were the perfect emcees for our show, and they helped to successfully set the stage to spotlight 53 beautiful and talented young women in our program."
Harrison began his television career by covering local sports in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma and quickly ventured into entertainment television. In 1999 he landed the job as host of HGTV's "Designer's Challenge," which was one of the network's highest rated shows. In 2001 he became host of ABC's hit romance/reality series "The Bachelor" and "The Bachelorette." He also hosts ABC's reality show "Bachelor Pad," an all-star reunion from previous seasons of "The Bachelor" and "The Bachelorette," which just finished airing its third season this summer. Harrison continues to advance in the entertainment industry through a variety of professional endeavors: He hosted the live television coverage of the final championship rounds of the 2010 "Scripps National Spelling Bee" on ABC, co-hosted ABC's 2008 "American Music Awards Red Carpet Live!," and hosted this year's "Emmys Red Carpet Live," interviewing celebrities and the evening's nominees as they made their way into the theater for "The 64th Primetime Emmy® Awards."
Burke-Charvet is a successful host, actress and entrepreneur. She returned for her sixth season as co-host of ABC's hit competition show "Dancing with the Stars" this September, having earned the coveted mirror ball trophy as Season Seven's champion with professional dance partner Derek Hough. Earlier this year she released two new fitness DVDs, "Transform Your Body with Brooke Burke: Strengthen & Condition" and "Tone & Tighten," and her first book, The Naked Mom, in paperback. With close to 2 million Twitter followers, Burke-Charvet has made a name for herself as a trusted resource in the world of motherhood and the social media network, motivating her to co-create the website BabooshBaby.com in 2007, featuring her popular post-pregNancy Belly wraps, Tauts. Most recently she has taken her creativity to the fashion world, launching IntiMint, a line of intimate and lounge apparel, and creating her own line of jewelry with designer Chad Allison. She has also just finished shooting two more fitness DVDs, with a few more scheduled for later next year. Burke-Charvet was raised in Tucson, Arizona and currently lives in California with her children and husband, David Charvet.
"The 2012 Miss America telecast on ABC was a tremendous success, taking the ratings crown as the most-watched non-sports program on Saturday night for almost two years," said Haskell. "With the success of our re-branding Miss America, we have attracted a new audience. We look forward to working with ABC and Planet Hollywood to make the 2013 broadcast event even more memorable for our viewers."
The three nights of preliminaries will take place on January 8, 9 & 10 at Planet Hollywood's PH Live. Tickets for the preliminaries, as well as the Miss America live event, will be available soon. For information on ticket sales visit www.missamerica.org. Laura Kaeppeler, of Kenosha, Wisconsin is Miss America 2012.

Weather forecasters are saying that we are due for a warmer, drier spell.
Certainly, the barograph is showing atmospheric pressure rising and the thermometer that the temperature is also going up.
It's about time, after the dismal weather. It seems unbelievable the longest day of the year has almost arrived. Now, on Manor and Stowell Farm, the phrase "Make hay while the sun shines" is being put into operation.
It is useful to have small bales of good hay stored up for winter, to feed to calves and cows with upset stomachs that need dry food.
Matt cut grass in a 10-acre paddock. On Stowell Farm, Kevin is about to cut 60 acres of grass, which will be made into large round bales for the sheep.
Richard and I moved the in-calf heifers across the road, to a fresh field of grass. They were easy to move, as they were keen to leave the field they were in.
Richard opened the gate and turned them along the road, about 20 metres on, where I turned them into their fresh pasture.
They quickly had their heads down, munching the new grass. Later in the week, heifer calves were moved into a clean field to graze. Then Matt used the topper to cut all the unpalatable grass, so regrowth would be better.
On Stowell Farm, more settled weather meant that first cut silage making could be completed.
The last 40 acres of grass were cut, rowed up and left to wilt for 24 hours, before being picked up, chopped and lactobacillus bacteria added. It was delivered into trailers, to be taken back to the silage clamp next to the farm buildings.
Two clamps are full and a third started; all rolled to drive out the air and sealed with plastic sheets.
On two sunny occasions, I have strolled through fields and have seen a large variety of insects, many flying among flower heads along field margins and in hedgerows.
The dog roses are particularly beautiful, with a tangle of white and delicate pink blooms.
The winter barley is well in ear, as is the winter wheat. The field of wheat with poor germination earlier is looking as if it will produce a reasonable crop, so we're glad we did not replant it.
The oilseed rape also looks well; the pods all filling with seeds now the flowers have died back.
There were many plants on the hedge-line, including cranesbill, hogweed, teasels, wild carrots and cleavers, a clinging, sprawling plant known as goosegrass because it is the favourite of geese. Farmers dislike it as it becomes twisted around the reels of the combines at harvest.
Melissa and I also ran a Pony Club mounted map reading on Manor Farm for young riders on ponies.

Screening software for investment management company
: 04 March, 2008
(Application Story)
Brewin Dolphin ensures EU money laundering compliance with adoption of PEP screening tools from Datanomic.
Data quality specialists, Datanomic has announced that Brewin Dolphin has adopted and deployed its Sanctions/PEP (Politically Exposed Persons) Screening solution as part of its anti-money laundering strategy and in compliance with the EU 3rd Money Laundering Directive. Brewin Dolphin went live with the Datanomic solution at the end of January 2008, which replaces the company's in-house checking processes. Using Datanomic's solution, the company is now able to screen in excess of half a million contacts on a weekly basis.
Brewin Dolphin is the largest independent investment manager in the UK, and provides personal management of portfolios and financial advice for over 120,000 private clients, charities and pension funds. The company's history dates from the mid 18th Century with origins tracing back to one of the founding firms of the London Stock Exchange. Brewin Dolphin Holdings PLC is listed on the London Stock Exchange. The company has 39 offices spread throughout the UK and the Channel Islands and manages £21.6 billion on behalf of its clients.
"We have deployed Datanomic's Sanctions/PEP Screening solution to maintain and control our PEP list and Bank of England OFAC monitoring," said Lillian Brown, Divisional Director of Compliance for Brewin Dolphin.
"In particular, we wanted to cut down on the number of 'false positives' and automate what is an intensely administrative process whilst eliminating human error. We were aware of Datanomic from its industry reputation and decided to evaluate Datanomic as well as a number of other vendors over a period of six months last year. Datanomic was easy to use and delivered far greater accuracy than competitors, there was no hard sell and we were able to successfully test the solution with our own live data. Datanomic is now our preferred platform of choice for Sanctions and PEP Screening. The solution has streamlined our previously manual processes, and helped us to mitigate risk. It's given us the added assurance of both compliance and peace of mind, and will save us considerable time and money."
Brewin Dolphin is now screening in excess of 500,000 customer records once a week from every jurisdiction all over the world. The company has also added World-Check, the leading supplier of consolidated Watch and PEP lists, as part of its screening process. Datanomic is now used in conjunction with World-Check's Data File worldwide.
"Before we deployed Datanomic, we had a procedure which meant we were constantly battling against time," added Brown. "You always need a certain amount of human input and gut feel, but the combination of Datanomic's Sanctions/PEP Screening solution with World-Check and our other lists ensures we are in control of who we do business with and that we are compliant with our obligations under regulation."
Regulatory initiatives, such as Basel II, MiFID and the 3rd EU Money Laundering Directive, have placed stringent information management requirements on Financial Services organisations. Money Laundering Reporting Officers (MLROs) face increasing Know Your Customer challenges. The scale, complexity and cost of screening customers against published sanctions lists ('Watch Lists') and named Politically Exposed Persons (PEP) lists is becoming a major administrative burden for compliance departments. The legal requirement to continually and accurately screen their customer base presents organisations with new operational challenges. Traditional matching methods require a smarter, more sophisticated approach.
Datanomic's Sanctions/PEP Screening solution enables organisations to rigorously and accurately identify heightened risk entities within their customer bases(s). It relieves the burden of manual or semi-automated client screening by enabling automated screening in an easy-to-use/easy-to-implement solution purpose-built for both the Compliance team and IT.
Compromised data exposes organisations to both financial and reputational risk. Datanomic has templates for matching against a number of different lists, including World-Check and has worked with leading financial institutions to deliver a highly intelligent data matching solution that is designed for ease of use by non-technical users.
In addition to significantly reducing complexity and administrative overhead, Datanomic's Sanctions/PEP Screening solution delivers industry best practice, providing a base from which management can develop tailored policies and procedures appropriate to their business. By reducing the amount of manual matching required, Datanomic's solution frees up resources to focus manual effort on more complex tasks. Moreover, improving the effectiveness of enterprise data applications further enhances corporate performance and competitive advantage.
Datanomic's Sanctions/PEP Screening solution can deliver a rapid return on investment and fast implementation. The solution can be acquired either on an annual subscription basis or via outright purchase.

I actually think this thread is pretty tame.
I would not use it as evidence to reopen a politics forum, but compared to some of the heated thread back in the day this is vanilla as can be.
I actually think it is facsinating to see how we can have resonable convos with each other, even with diffrent POV's, if we just accept that we will not all be the same and leave the insults and name calling out of it.
Im with Geezer, never heard of any of the skull stuff, but makes me curious to learn more about it.
The Man eveidently practices what he preaches, like him or not.
VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - Pope Francis will hold a major ceremony next week in the chapel of a youth prison instead of in the Vatican or a Rome basilica where it has been held before, the Vatican said on Thursday.
Francis will conduct the Holy Thursday afternoon service at the Casal del Marmo jail for minors on Rome's outskirts.
During the service, the pope washes and kisses the feet of 12 people to commemorate *****'s gesture of humility towards his apostles on the night before he died.
All previous popes in living memory held the service either in St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican or in the Basilica of St. John in Lateran, which is the pope's cathedral church in his capacity as bishop of Rome.
Vatican spokesmen said they could not recall an occasion when the service was held anywhere else.
When he was archbishop of Buenos Aires, the former Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio often celebrated the Holy Thursday service in a jail, a hospital, a home for the elderly or with poor people.
A pope is also bishop of Rome and the decision by Francis to hold the service in the prison was another indication that he intends to take that role seriously.
The Holy Thursday service is one of several during Holy Week, which for Catholics this year begins on March 24 with Palm Sunday and ends with Easter Sunday on March 31.

More than 100 Greater Killeen Chamber of Commerce members and education advocates Friday learned about House Bill 5, which restructures the state's public education system.
District 54 state Rep. Jimmie Don Aycock, R-Killeen, presented information about the bill he authored at a luncheon at Central Texas College.
"There is narrative out there that we are dumbing down education," Aycock said after handing out a third-grade math problem and explaining there is much more learning going on in schools. "Don't tell me we are dumbing down education." The bill lowers the number of tests required for high school students, revises graduation requirements, and provides school districts a way to expand career and technical education programs, Aycock said.
"House Bill 5 was about making some major changes to Texas education and those changes will have a far-reaching effect," he said.
By allowing districts flexibility to expand career and technical education programs, the measure will grant students the ability to investigate fields other than those that require college educations.
"There is nothing wrong with being an auto mechanic, and we need to train them to be a really good auto mechanic," Aycock said.
Such a move increases the opportunities of students after graduation, said Robert Muller, Killeen Independent School District superintendent, who was at the luncheon.
Changes in the graduation testing system reduce end-of-course exams from 15 to five, Aycock said.
"For the last 20 years, we have based everything we do on high-stakes testing," Aycock said.
Aycock admitted the bill is not a "silver bullet" for fixing all the state's education problems, but it was a start.
"Do you have room for improvement? Yes," Aycock said. "Do you have a strategy? We have a strategy."
Aycock, the chairman of the House Public Education Committee, said the committee probably will focus on discipline and conduct during the next legislative session.

NAPLES, FL—The Ritz-Carlton, Naples reopened today following the completion of a multimillion-dollar refurbishment project, which consisted of a complete overhaul of all 450 guestrooms, suites and corridors, three dining outlets and Artisans ballroom.
Undertaken this summer, the renovation also included the various structural, mechanical and engineering upgrades throughout the property. The resort ceased operations for the first time in its 27-year history to complete the project over a two-month period.
Designed by Wimberly Interiors, the new guestrooms offer a color pallet of blue, green and gray—inspired by the Gulf of Mexico and its surrounding landscape. Two of the resort's dining options and the bar were transformed by New York-based design agency, Blue Plate. The Sushi Bar, now known as Dusk, features an extended balcony, which provides additional outdoor seating and offers views of the Gulf of Mexico.

4. i beleive so
5. was never married to her.
currently in court process. tired of the back and fourth. just want to give her what she wants
HelloThank you
If there is no court order obligating you to pay Child Support and you have no relationship with the child, then you can walk away. However, note that the Mother can take action to bring a Child Support issue to court and have the court order support.Of course, you also have the right to file for visitation with the child and eventually custody if that is what you wantI hope that this information is helpful. If you need further information, please just send me a reply asking for clarification. After that, I hope you will enter a positive rating so that I will be credited for assisting you. Thanks again for using this service. Your business is appreciated.
to be clear, i would have to propose this to her? in writting?i want to make her happy and just be out of the picture for good, not on birth certificate, no child support, no contact
HelloYou can write her a letter and tell her that since she does not want you to be a part of the child's life, you are out of the picture. That you will not be trying to contact her or the child again.I suggest that, again, if she wants to pursue child support she still can
In other words, there is no legal way other than having someone else adopt the child to get out of the responsibilities should the Mother pursue them.

STUDENTS at Basingstoke's biggest secondary school have given the thumbs-up to a controversial new tutor group system.
Brighton Hill Community College, in Brighton Way, hit the headlines in May when proposals to introduce vertical tutoring - a system that puts students from different years into the same tutorial group for 40 minutes each day - sparked a mass protest by pupils.
After the incident, which saw more than 150 pupils gather on the school field, three students were excluded and up to 80 others faced detention.
But now, just three months into the new regime, students at Brighton Hill say vertical tutoring is not as bad as they thought it would be - and some even prefer it to the old system where pupils were in tutor groups with other students in the same year.
The Gazette went along to speak to some of the students with the permission of headteacher David Eyre but without staff being present while the interviews were conducted.
Lucy Bates, of Year 11, said: "I liked my old tutor group and I thought it was a bit pointless to change but I really like how it is now.
"I never really used to speak to anyone from other years but now we all get on. Everyone thought that it was going to be a major thing but we are only with our tutor groups for 40 minutes each day and that's nothing when we're at school for six hours."
And 11-year-old Amy Day, who started at Brighton Hill in September, agreed. "At first, most of my friends were worried about having to mix with older people but no one has had any problems," she said. "I have made friends with all the other years and they have helped me when I needed help."
But not all the students are happy with the new system. Robert Allen, of Year 9, said: "I think there have been a few issues with the new tutor groups. I would go back to how it was before - I knew people then, and although I still see those people, I do not talk to them as much."
Mr Eyre said he is delighted with the way the students have responded to the new system, which the headteacher introduced in a bid to create a greater sense of community at the school.
"We have trawled the opinions of parents and guardians and the overwhelming majority say they are pleased with how it's working," he said.
"The lunchtime supervisors tell me that lunchtimes are now more calmer and that different age groups are mixing together quite happily.
"I have also been contacted by a number of other schools who have been watching the development of the new tutor system very closely and would now like to meet up with some of our staff to discuss it further."

Suicide is the 2nd leading cause of death among college students.
A 2002 study by the American College Health Association estimated that 1 out of every 12 students has
made a suicide plan at one time or another in their academic life.
It is absolutely essential that colleges provide students with resources to fight suicide.
I can help your institution by conducting talks and seminars that provide the information your students and
staff need to battle suicide.
Suicide can strike a college without warning, and affect the morale of the entire institution.
Please feel free to contact me on very short notice if needed.
I will arrive to your campus as fast as possible after a suicide has taken place. It's important to take quick action
to avoid the phenomena of "copycat suicides."

What are the Triads?
If you purchase your electricity on an 'Energy Only' basis, the annual cost of using the National Grid Transmission System is passed through at cost by your Energy Supplier. The charges are based on your average half hourly electricity usage during the UK's three national system peaks, commonly referred to as the Triads.
M&C Energy Group provide an email warning service where we use our expertise to forecast when the Triads are likely to happen. This allows you to reduce consumption and save money.
Typically we will issue between 10 and 20 warnings each winter. The peaks normally occur on weekdays between 5 and 6 pm and we provide a warning 6-8 hours before.
Why choose the M&C Warning Service?
Our team have been providing Triad Warnings since 2004 and have never missed a Triad period despite issuing a low number of warnings; we believe this to be a unique achievement in the industry.
We also feel that you will benefit from subscribing to independent warning services such as ours rather than rely solely on your energy supplier.
M&C Energy Group also provide a next day report identifying how well you have responded to our warning, charting your half hourly consumption during the day and estimating the savings you have made.
Contact us now to subscribe to our Triad Warnings Service .

Burberry LFW FW13 Livestream
Watch the show in real-time here!
Becoming best friends with Alexa Chung in the front row and taking home sweet goodie bag swag pales in comparison to wholeheartedly enjoying a fashion show while in an dormant position with a packet of Cheezels at your fingertips. Now you can do the latter whilst easily imagining the former with our live stream of Burberry's LFW show.
During their recent presentations, the British luxury label has done things like literally making it rain, and sending a metallic-clad army of uber babes down the runway — who knows what to expect this season! The only way to find out is to watch below when the show kicks off at 3:00am EST on Tuesday 19 February (check out this nifty time zone convertor so you don't miss out on the action).
If you absolutely love/need any of the pieces you see on the runway, you can purchase them through the brand's new Runway Made to Order service rightafter the show for an exclusive two week period. The service offers custom-made coats and bags which can be personalised with a bespoke engraved nameplate, plus the pieces will be delivered within nine weeks of the order meaning you'll be the first to own the new collection months before it arrives in store.
What's more, these pieces will be fitted with something which sounds like it's from a James Bond film called Radio Frequency Identification Technology — upon contact with an iPhone or iPad, you'll be able to unlock a top secret video which will show you the life story of the product you have purchased from its infancy as a sketch to its coming-of-age craftsmanship.

LIVERMORE, Calif. -- Dr. Wayne Shotts, LLNL's deputy director for Operations, has announced his plans to retire from the Laboratory, effective March 1. Shotts has led the Laboratory's operational programs since January 2005, and his career spans more than 31 years of work in physics, defense and nuclear technologies, nonproliferation, arms control, international security and homeland security.
"I have thoroughly enjoyed my tenure at Livermore," noted Shotts. "The Lab is a terrific place to work and I am proud of the technical and scientific accomplishments we've made on behalf of the nation."
For the past year, Shotts has managed all institutional operations at LLNL with responsibilities for such areas as safety, security, facility management and laboratory business practices. He was named acting deputy director in October 2004, assuming the permanent position in January 2005. Prior to that, Shotts had a successful tenure as the first director of the Laboratory's Homeland Security Organization and as associate director of Nonproliferation, Arms Control and International Security (NAI) for nine years.
"I regretfully accept Wayne's resignation," said Michael Anastasio, LLNL's current director and the incoming director of Los Alamos National Laboratory. "Wayne has been a trusted colleague, an outstanding scientist and a friend. His commitment to Livermore has been unwavering and he will be missed. I want to thank him for this dedication and I wish him well."
Shotts has been serving as acting director of LLNL since the announcement of the Los Alamos National Security, LLC (LANS) contract win for the management and operations of Los Alamos National Laboratory and the departure of LLNL director Michael Anastasio to lead the LANS team. Under Laboratory protocol, the deputy director of operations assumes leadership for the Laboratory when the director is absent or traveling.
Shotts joined LLNL in 1974 as a physicist. He has served as a group and program leader in the Lab's nuclear design department and division leader for nuclear chemistry and prompt diagnostics. In 1988, he became principal deputy associate director for military applications. In 1992, he joined the Defense and Nuclear Technologies Directorate as principal deputy. In 1995, he was named Associate Director of NAI. Following the tragedy of September 11, 2001, the Laboratory formed a new Homeland Security Organization and Shotts assumed leadership.
Shotts received his bachelor's degree in physics from the University of California, Santa Barbara in 1967. He received a Ph.D in physics from Cornell University in 1973. In 1990, he was awarded the E.O. Lawrence Award for National Security for his contributions to the research and development of advanced nuclear weapons and his innovative approach to improving diagnostic methods - which have aided in solving some of the most pressing problems in nuclear explosive designs.
Shotts is a long-time member of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and the American Physical Society. His research interests include applied optics, nuclear chemistry, electromagnetics, plasma physics, weapons effects, arms control and nuclear policy. He has participated in numerous panels and studies on national security, nonproliferation and counterterrorism. Shotts lives in Livermore with his wife, Jacquelyn.
Founded in 1952, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory has a mission to ensure national security and apply science and technology to the important issues of our time. Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory is managed by the University of California for the U.S. Department of Energy's National Nuclear Security Administration.

Extending an ongoing business relationship, Simulmedia said it is integrating set-top-based audience data from FourthWall Media to enhance its targeted advertising business.
Simulmedia expects to improve its targeted advertising by including FourthWall's full daily feed of anonymous, second-by-second, TV viewing data from more than 2 million U.S. homes. The two companies began working together in 2012.
Simulmedia said it will match FourthWall's viewing data to household purchase data. The company said its approach will maintain the privacy of the viewers.
FourthWall has not identified which cable operators it is working with that are providing access to viewer data.
"Already, Simulmedia uses FourthWall data in combination with multiple other data sources including TiVo Inc.'s TRA, Nielsen Buyer Insights, and GfK MRI, among others, to sell and measure TV campaigns based on reaching audiences based on their actual purchase behaviors, not just demographics," says Dave Morgan, Simulmedia's founder and CEO.
"Our new agreement with FourthWall meaningfully expands Simulmedia's footprint of U.S. TV viewing data and the anonymous purchase matching will help enable our next generation of closed loop ad targeting on TV, where we intend to report on actual purchase lift generated by campaigns. We want to make every spot count and to guarantee the results."
Simulmedia rolled out its purchaser-based TV ad targeting in the fourth quarter of last year and expects to roll-out campaign reporting with actual sales on a spot-by-spot basis in the second half of 2014, focusing first on the retail, financial services, e-commerce, automotive and travel industries, the company said.
"FourthWall Media, through its MassiveData® division, provides audience analytics and second-by-second television viewership data from millions of set-top boxes," says Bill Feininger, GM, MassiveData and SVP, Media Measurement for FourthWall. "Anonymous custom ratings metrics are unlocking the door to more effective television commercials. We have been helping politicians find likely voters segmented by which issues are important to them. Now our matching technology is being used by product marketers. We look forward to working with Simulmedia to close the loop in support of audience-based targeting on TV."
