THE future at Ibrox is looking increasingly bleak but Hotline callers believe there is only one way to finally rid the club of its hated board. Administration.
It sounds pretty extreme but they reckon that is the only way to get shot once and for all. Read today's latest development on the Rangers cash crisis.
Jimmy Miller, Knightswood , said: "The fans I was speaking to on Saturday feel administration is not only looking more likely but it might be the best course of action to remove the current board.
"If it means a 25-point deduction and another year in the Championship then so be it. It's a price worth paying to get rid of the men who are scamming money out of the club.
"I've been a Rangers supporter for 46 years and a season-ticket holder for 32 but I did not renew this season and will not put in another penny until they are out of the door."
Hugh Reilly, Dundee , said: "I am sick of the lunacy going on at Ibrox. The board are in complete denial and bleeding the club dry. I believe administration is now the best possible course of action for us to get rid of them."
Should any key boardroom figures resign in the wake of the latest financial revelations?
Meanwhile, Celtic's Peter Lawwell is still in the firing line. Kay Boyde, Glasgow , said: "Lawwell said it had cost Scottish football £30 million with Rangers being out of the top division.
"He didn't notice the 31,000 at Ibrox on Saturday was more than the combined attendances in the whole of the Premiership. It's only the top division that has lost out and if they wanted to do something about it they should focus on getting bums on empty seats."
Virgil van Dijk downed tools at the weekend and Jimmy Findlay, Lennoxtown , said: "When van Dijk's missus is out shopping for the new baby she should buy two dummies.
"She'll need one for Virgil as well after his behaviour at the weekend. I think van Dijk would struggle in England because don't forget he was responsible for Celtic going out of Europe. He should want to stay to make amends."
Celtic fans are still not happy on and off the pitch. John Kerr, Coatbridge , said: "I can't understand why Celtic are going all around the world looking for a striker when there is one sitting on their own doorstep in Nadir Ciftci."
Eamon Hood, Kilbirnie , said: "Peter Lawwell missed an opportunity at Dundee when he had his post-match cup of tea with the Dens board.
"He should have offered to swap managers as Paul Hartley would do a far better job than the current man in charge. He's used to working with no money so he would suit Lawwell."
Jack Corcoran, County Mayo , said: "Neil Lennon left behind a good squad and we were told we were getting a proper coach in Ronny Deila. Maybe they meant a coach driver because I would only let him take the team bus. He has been useless."
Billy McCrumb, West Kilbride , said: "I am getting cheesed off with Lawwell. He is not a football man, he is a bean counter and a poor negotiator. If we were any good he would not have let Scepovic slip through his hands. He is a yes man for Dermot Desmond who is more interested in horse racing."
Not everyone has sympathy for the Old Firm, however, and Graeme Anderson, Fife , said: "I had to laugh when I heard talk about UEFA forming a cartel of clubs. We have been used to it in Scotland with the Old Firm.
"I can remember the days they put an end to the old League Cup qualifying sections which made local clubs a lot of money and they tied up the TV deals for years. It will be the same when they are both back in the same division but what goes around comes around."
Finally a touch of glamour.
Alan Lough, Dunbar , said: "I am fed up with Barcelona talking about Lionel Messi being injured and moaning like the Nou Camp is crumbling down. It is time they got on with it and let him recover."

Reviewed Dec. 16, 2010
"This is good, but cannot taste any caramel. It also makes a lot for 2 people, so will cut the recipe in half next time and the chocolate chips to 1/4 cup. I used this sauce to drizzle over "Blondies with Chips""

Financial Support from Trusted Choice® Paying Off for CNY AgentsHere's one example how IIABNY members are using support from Trusted Choice® to market themselves on local radio and social media. IIA of Central New York is using grant money from Trusted Choice to produce and air the 1-minute "Buy Local, My Local" commercial, which features IIACNY President Tim Toomey. During the ad, Toomey expresses the association's support for the Trusted Choice Pledge of Performance and the value local independent agents bring to consumers. Listen to the commercial, which is also posted on Facebook.
Trusted Choice grant money is still available. IIABNY can provide guidance with most aspects of an ad campaign like the one conducted by IIACNY, including the creative side and what stations to air the ads. E-mail Julie MacConnell, IIABNY director of marketing and communications, or call her at (800) 851-8853, ext. 226.
Help for You, TooIndividual member agencies and their branch locations can promote their businesses with help from the Trusted Choice Marketing Reimbursement Program. The revised program will reimburse 50 percent of the invoice amount, up to $500, incurred in 2013 by Trusted Choice agencies in co-branding agency marketing materials, such as business cards, letterhead, envelopes, agency signage, logo-wear and advertising; and in creating or updating a digital presence to include the Trusted Choice logo, link to the Trusted Choice website and Pledge of Performance. Remember, branch locations can also apply separately for MRP reimbursement.
In addition, many Trusted Choice company partners offer co-op advertising dollars to their agents. Some companies have programs that are open to all of their appointed agencies, while others have more comprehensive programs available for agencies that meet certain sales volume and retention goals.
To see which programs are available, contact your company marketing representatives or visit the agents section on the carrier website. A list of Trusted Choice company partners is posted on the Trusted Choice website.

Jersey Shore Pizza Man Recovered from Sandy with Help from Trusted Choice® Agent Now airing on The Weather Channel, a new Trusted Choice® commercial highlights a New Jersey man whose pizza restaurants were destroyed by Hurricane Sandy. In the ad, small business owner Joe Rulli praises his Trusted Choice independent insurance agent for the excellent customer service that allowed him to reopen in time for the summer tourist season.
"Consumers like Joe Rulli count on their Trusted Choice agents to be there at the most difficult times," says Robert Rusbuldt, Trusted Choice president and IIABA president & CEO. "The Weather Channel is the perfect outlet to demonstrate how dangerous and temperamental Mother Nature can be and the importance of making sure your family, business and home have the proper protection and plans in place."
The new ad is part of a series of real-life customer testimonials produced by Trusted Choice over the last two years. A longer web ad is also being distributed across social media and other digital outlets.
"This ad spotlights just one of the countless cases where Trusted Choice agents show their commitment to their clients and living by the Trusted Choice 'Pledge of Performance,'" Rusbuldt adds.
Room for Mobile in Digital Marketing Mobile marketing, in addition to social media and so-called content marketing, which focuses on creating content and publishing content that users want to receive, is considered one of the top trends in digital marketing. Mobile marketing is any marketing conducted through a mobile device, such as a smartphone or tablet computer. As one expert said, successful mobile marketing could be defined as marketing that engages the audience in a relevant and interactive manner through their mobile device. To achieve results, a company's website should be mobile-friendly, with special offers or alerts distributed through opt-in text messaging. Even e-mail messages should be mobile-friendly, i.e., easily read on a mobile device.
For websites to be optimized for smartphones and tablets, they should be able to function on a screen or display much smaller than that 27-inch behemoth monitor sitting on your desk. If your agency website does not use a platform like WordPress, which has its own built-in mobile optimization tools, here are a few mobile-friendly tips from the good folks at Small Business Trends LLC.
Easy to Get Mobile App for Your AgencyMembers might also consider marketing through the Trusted Choice® Mobile App. Designed to work on iOS and Android platforms, this amazing resource allows consumers to find a local Trusted Choice agent, create their home inventory, document an accident, ask a question and read relevant headlines – all from their smartphone, tablet or other mobile device. The app is available in a customized format with your agency's color scheme and logo. It's also integrated with both Project CAP and IIABA online systems to provide single sign-on and easy account administration. The Trusted Choice Mobile App is included in many Project CAP agency marketing packages (for a limited time) or available separately for a nominal fee to IIABNY and IIABA member agencies.
LastlyCreating a mobile friendly website and mobile apps were among the conclusion reached during discussions hosted by the Agents Council for Technology. In the ACT article "Agency Strategies to Manage Change Successfully," author Jeff Yates recounted the insights gleaned from those discussions to assist agencies in managing change successfully within their firms. The article cites a recent published report that found 74 percent of Google searches are performed via a mobile device, making it "good sense" for agencies to enhance their mobile tools.
Featured Web Page: Word on the Street Jamie Deapo, IIABNY assistant vice president of membership and member programs, recently responded to a new report from McKinsey & Co. that questions the future role of independent agents. In the latest posting on his blog, "Word on the Street," Deapo, who also serves as IIABNY's Member Advocate, offers the answer for independent agents who have been "outspent and outhustled." Look for "Word on the Street" on IIABNY's new website.
Trusted Choice® 'Share' Campaign Needs Your Help to Grant More Wishes It takes only a few minutes to "share" daily posts from Trusted Choice®. As a strong supporter of the brand's involvement with the Make-a-Wish Campaign, IIABNY is asking its members to consider encouraging others to do the same by using their Facebook status to direct friends and family to the Trusted Choice Facebook page, and by following Trusted Choice on Twitter. Remember that this campaign will not only benefit deserving kids, but also increase the number of consumers the Trusted Choice brand reaches.
In past campaigns, Trusted Choice raised enough money to grant 21 wishes, including sending 2-year-old Kiwi to Hawaii and 17-year-old Laura on a shopping spree. This year, Trusted Choice would like to increase that number to 30 wishes.
Business Associates BEWARE Sept. 23 will soon be here, and you better take note because it is a date that affects all individuals and entities deemed to be a Business Associate. According to the new HIPAA Omnibus Rule, Business Associates (the definition of these is far-reaching) now have the same obligations and will suffer the same monetary consequences as any other entity that intentionally divulges Protected Health Information or PHI.
IIABNY will continue to provide more details about who specifically is affected and what needs to done in the weeks leading up to the day the new rule goes into effect. A one-hour webinar on this topic is tentatively planned for Sept. 20.
Dodge to Lead Fall Health Insurance Exchange Webinar Roughly two weeks after New York's health insurance exchange begins accepting enrollments, IIABNY will present the webinar "12 Things You Need to Know about the New York Health Benefit Exchange." Tim Dodge, IIABNY assistant vice president of research, will serve as instructor, providing insight into a range of issues related to the exchange, which was renamed this week "NY State of Health." During the webinar, which will be held from 10 a.m. to 11:45 a.m. Oct. 15, Dodge will define the health benefit exchange, discuss tax implications and how the exchange will work and review the roles of navigators, agents and brokers. This course qualifies for two continuing education credits for BR, PC, LB, LA and C1 licenses. Online registration is available.
In addition to "12 Things You Need to Know…," IIABNY features a full schedule of onsite classes for the exchange's Small Business Health Options Program producer certification course. The series began Tuesday with a sold-out session in Syracuse. Thirteen additional SHOP classes are scheduled, resuming Aug. 27 in Albany and continuing through Oct. 23 in Plainview. This course qualifies for eight continuing education credits for BR, C1, LB, LA and PC license. Register online. See the course brochure for additional information.

Good productI like the Rimmel masceras so I gave this one a try. My lashes do look longer but not fuller. So it's a more natural look that I like.

I'll probably will buy it again but along with another one that makes my lashes look fuller. — 8 years, 4 months agoFranzi | 3 reviews
Wow.This works really good on my bottom lashes, but not as good as i wanted it to on my top lashes. It didn't give me the length and curl i wanted. Good thing there was barely any clumping. But other than that, this mascara is one of the bests! — 8 years, 10 months agoMEiRi_doll | 38 reviews

Wednesday, May 26, 1999 Published at 09:17 GMT 10:17 UK
UK Politics
Conservative assembly members
The Conservative Party's nine members of the National Assembly for Wales are:
Nicholas Bourne The former Conservative chief spokesman in Wales, was beaten in the Tories' leadership contest by Rod Richards. He had previously led the unsuccessful "Just Say No" campaign against Welsh devolution during the 1997 referendum, and was seen as the more conciliatory of the two potential leaders. Standing for Brecon and Radnor as the constituency candidate, Mr Bourne was beaten by Lib Dem candidate Kirsty Williams. A professor of law and a barrister, Mr Bourne, aged 57, stood at the 1997 General Election in Worcester. As one of the Conservatives' nine AMs, Mr Bourne will have an influence on Conservative policy on the economy, health and constitutional issues.
Alun Cairns One of the youngest Tory AMs, Alun Cairns is the Conservatives spokesman on the economy in Wales and regional policy co-ordinator for the South Wales West region. The 28-year-old Welsh speaker is a bank employee and business development consultant and he stood for the Conservatives in Gower at the 1997 General Election. A former deputy chairman for Wales' Young Conservatives, Mr Cairns works for the TSB bank, and he entered the assembly as a list member for South Wales West..
David Davies Mr Davies has the distinction of being the only Tory to get a first-past-the-post seat at the assembly elections when he won Monmouthshire. Mr Davies, who had previously fought Bridgend in the general election, won Monmouthshire, which has been traditional Conservative territory, with a narrow majority in the assembly elections. A prominent 'No' campaigner in Newport during the referendum, he works in his family's tea importing business. Born in 1970, his interests include health, education, transport, and ensuring a cost-effective assembly. An outspoken critic of policies to advance the Welsh language, he denounced what he called the threat of "creeping bilingualism" soon after his election to the assembly.
Glyn Davies The Conservative list member for Mid and West Wales emerged briefly during the assembly election campaign as a critic of the Tory leader Rod Richards' use of the term "language apartheid" to try to reopen controversy relating to the Welsh language. The 55-year-old principal of a livestock farming company has held the role of chairman of the Development Board for Rural Wales. As one of the Tories' AMs, he can be seen as a representative of traditional rural Welsh Conservatism. Mr Davies is also a former member of the Welsh Development Agency and Wales Tourist Board. He previously fought the Montgomery seat for the Conservatives at the 1997 General Election and is keen on issues such as sport and the countryside.
William Graham The 49-year-old chartered surveyor who has a family practice in Newport is a Tory list AM for South Wales East. The former leader of the Conservative Group in Newport, Mr Graham has experience as a councillor with Newport Borough Council and Gwent City Council. He is a member of numerous public and voluntary bodies and is likely to play a role in advising his party on issues such as local government finance.
David Melding One of two Conservative AMs in South Wales Central, Mr Melding is manager of Carers National Association, Wales and a former deputy director of the Welsh Centre for International Affairs. The 36-year-old has previously stood as a Tory candidate at general elections for Cardiff Central (1997) and Blaenau Gwent (1992) and has special interests in social policy, health and education. Educated in Cardiff and Virginia USA, Mr Melding is also governor of a special school.
Jonathan Morgan Mr Morgan is the youngest assembly member at just 24. He works as a European officer with Coleg Glan Hafren, and is a list AM for South Wales Central. With experience working with the European Social Fund Secretariat, Mr Morgan has also stood as a parliamentary candidate for Merthyr Tydfil and Rhymney. In 1998, he was appointed as education adviser to the Welsh Conservative Party and has interests in policy matters such as Europe, education and local government. Among Welsh Tories, he has been one of those most prepared to see devolution as an opportunity rather than a threat.
Rod Richards The leader of the Conservatives in the assembly, stood at the elections as both a constituency and list candidate in his former Westminster seat of Clwyd West. He lost to Labour's Alun Pugh in the first instance, but is now installed as the Conservatives' assembly spokesman thanks to the proportional representation system which ensured him a list seat. Mr Richards was previously the Westminster MP for Clwyd West, but lost the seat at the 1997 General Election. He had also been a Welsh Office minister but resigned that post due to allegations about his private life. The former army officer and Welsh-language broadcaster has earned a reputation as a combative politician, and has courted the antagonism of both Labour and Plaid Cymru opponents. During the assembly elections he broke the carefully-constructed recent consensus not to use the Welsh language as a political football and alleged that the Plaid Cymru-run Gwynedd council operated a policy of linguistic apartheid. Since entering the assembly, he made an early mark in the chamber, calling for the Ł17m new headquarters budget to be spent on a new hospital.
Peter Rogers The 59-year-old Anglesey farmer is a prominent member of the Welsh farmers' protest over export bans in 1998. A keen campaigner on agriculture and rural life issues, he has spent his working life as a farm manager and as a sales manager. Mr Rogers is a vice-president of the Ynys Mon Conservative Association and a magistrate.

Nashville, TN – Rutherford County's Legislative Delegation and Education Commissioner Timothy Webb announced Blackman, Eagleville and La Vergne High schools been awarded the High Schools That Work Grant for the 2009-10 school year totaling $17,000.
High Schools That Work is the nation's first large-scale effort, designed by the Southern Regional Education Board, to encourage states to make career/technical education a full partner in efforts to improve student achievement while bringing together school leaders, teachers, parents and the community to improve the way all high school students are prepared for work and further education.
"It is important that we use every tool we can to ensure are students are college and career ready by the end of high school," Webb said. "By using the High Schools That Work formula we can increase the likelihood of reaching students and eventually getting them into a college or career they love."
The grants are awarded to provide many career and technical education tools, including providing students access to intellectually challenging career/technical studies in high-demand fields, provide teams of teachers and engage students in academic and career/technical classrooms. High Schools That Work provides a framework of goals, key practices and key conditions for accelerating learning and setting higher standards.
"We need to give our students any advantage possible when it comes to competing in the job market," said Ralph Barnett, assistant commissioner for Career Technical Education. "We are excited to know these school districts will be receiving additional dollars to do just that."
The Rutherford County delegation includes Sen. Bill Ketron, Sen. Jim Tracy, Rep. Curt Cobb, Rep. Kent Coleman, Rep. Joe Carr and Rep. Donna Rowland.

I was too late to follow the example of my friend Teri Frankel of TCB Insurance (the TCB stands for Taking Care of Business). I won't be too late next year. Hope you agree.
To Our Clients and Friends,
As 2009 comes to a close, we want to take a moment to thank you for your continued loyalty and support. This has been a challenging but successful year for many, including the TCB family, and we have you to thank for our continued growth!
There is no more appropriate time to think of those whose lives have been affected by the events of this past year. The financial crisis has left many struggling to make ends meet and businesses have been forced to make cut backs. Many families have had an unexpected health crisis or even lost a loved one.
We have decided to use our holiday gift giving to help those less fortunate and we are asking for your help. We would like to make a donation in your name to a charity or organization that is near and dear to your heart. Please email or call our office by December 1st and let us know which organization you would like us to support, so that we may consider them this year for our giving campaign.
We wish you all a healthy and prosperous 2010!
Teri told me that the even greater benefit of giving in this manner is that you find out not only the non-profits and charities that your clients support, but get to hear the story of how and why they chose them. Those stories can often lead you to a deeper and more authentic conversation than you've ever had with these valued people.
In closing, I may be too late to send this to my clients and friends, but I am not too late in wishing all of you and your families a happy and healthy holiday season and New Year.

Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor
How do I beat Belial?
I have my MC's lvl at 45 and the rest are around 40, my main strategy is to use the Phantasm/Evil Wave and it goes well untill he hits all my team mates with falling meteors, please help with this prob! >.<
DARK_Dante64 - 8 years ago
Accepted Answer
You can try what I did:
I gave my main character tons of high strength monsters to fight belial, and I gave Atsuro this one moster that can reflect physical attacks along with a monster that can use flight or anything like that (if you can, do the same with your 3rd teammate) because Belial usually attacks him and does more damage to himself than he can heal (provided that you attack too). Kill all the monsters (as Belial won't summon more until he's badly hurt) before rushing everyone to the stage as the main and yuzu are decoys (have one of them the ablility to use bind to help). Then when belial gets close enough, use atsuro and keisuke to teleport from the stage to where belial is (using flight or so) and attack all at once. If you have any power multi-moves like Deathbound or Holy Dance (ice dance works as well too), waste them against him.
When he's hurt enough, he'll summon demons at the beginning of the stage (which is why you should rush to the stage) and then use a move called Sodom Fire, which hurts everyone including Haru. If you can help it, don't bother trying to heal her: you need to heal your men and keep up the attack. It helps to have someone who knows high power ice moves, but that one dragon who has evil wave shouldn't be used: there's no extra turns, and even though Belial can't heal, because you can't move until at least 2 of Belial's turns. However, do have one ready in case Belial's dying and the monsters are closing in. Save often, and I hope you succeed

Labor is fixed on the future but the past was always going to dominate during a centenary party, writes Tony Stephens.
The ALP looked back yesterday to the certainties of a century ago - and forward to the unknowns of the coming election.
The Opposition Leader, Mark Latham, told a special caucus meeting in Melbourne that Labor would run a new type of election campaign. The party would talk about the future rather than the past, of hope rather than fear, about people's everyday lives.
He accused the government of "always talking about things that can go wrong about Australia instead of things that can go right".
The meeting was part of a celebration of the centenary of the election of the first national labour government in the world, led by Chris Watson.
Goodwill was so rampant that Labor appeared ready to rehabilitate Billy Hughes, a member of the Watson ministry who left Labor over the World War I conscription issue, helped form the National Party, joined the United Australia Party before it became the Liberal Party and is generally known by ALP members as a "rat".
Paul Keating, the last of 10 Labor prime ministers in the 20th century, told about Hughes being asked why he hadn't joined the Country Party, to which he replied: "Son, you have to draw the line somewhere."
Mr Keating said that, although Labor had traduced Hughes, he was a great loss to the party.
Senator John Faulkner drew mutters when he mentioned Hughes as one of Watson's ground-breaking ministry, to which he replied that Hughes "was OK then" and became the longest-serving MP in Australian history.
Unveiling a plaque, Bob Hawke said that the unique strength of the ALP was not just that it was the only party still existing since federation but that it embodied the notion of the "fair go", which Australians regarded as essential to their spirit.
In campaign mode, the longest-serving Labor prime minister vowed to expose the conservative parties' "hypocritical and dangerous perversion" of Labor's record, particularly on the economy and defence and national security.
Admitting that allowing interest rates to reach 22 per cent was his "worst mistake in office", he said, however, that he and Paul Keating had introduced the most radical transformation of the economy in Australian history, lifting productivity and competitiveness and creating 1.5 million jobs.
On defence, he pointed to Australians turning to the Curtin Labor government during World War II, after Robert Menzies had "opposed Churchill's resolute defiance of Hitler" and to Menzies' opposition to the Indonesian independence movement. He attacked Labor's opponents for their "gratuitous insertion of Australia into the Vietnam War".
As to the conflict in Iraq, he said: "No prime minister has ever put this country at greater risk and for the wrong reasons as John Howard with his lockstep performance with George Bush."
Mr Keating said at the launch of Ross McMullin's book on Watson, So Monstrous a Travesty, that the Watson ministry wanted to have a go at being in charge of the country. The legacy was that Labor could be in charge.
The problem between him and "Hawkey" was that they both thought they should be in charge. In any case, Hawke and Keating's 13 years of government had helped democratise capital and provided a truly independent foreign policy. Mr Latham said: "If we can see ahead more clearly it is because we stand on the shoulders of giants."

For an RNAi or antisense experiment, the actual level of target gene knockdown is related to the transfection efficiency. A positive control such as HPRT DsiRNA should be used in each experiment to assess transfection efficiency. In addition, IDT recommends using a dose-response curve of 0.1, 1, and 10 nM to determine maximum response.

The next Archbishop of Canterbury has staked his authority on a yes vote by the General Synod to legislation introducing the first women bishops.
The Rt Rev Justin Welby, Bishop of Durham, told the General Synod that it was "time to finish the job" and vote in favour of final approval for legislation paving the way for the first women bishops.
He pledged to support traditionalists who oppose the ordination of women but said the ministry of women as priests had been "powerful" in all areas of the Church of England apart from the episcopacy.
"It is time to finish the job and vote for this measure but also the Church of England needs to show how we can develop the mission of the Church in a way that demonstrates that we can manage diversity of view without division - diversity in amity, not diversity in enmity," he said.
He added: "I am personally deeply committed and believe that fellow bishops are also to ensuring as far as I am able that all that we promise today and later in the code of conduct is carried out faithfully in spirit as well as in letter.
"Expressing in attitude and by our actions that we more than respect but also love one another is a foundation stone of our mission in this country and the world more widely.
"We cannot get trapped into believing this is a zero-sum decision where one person's gain must be another's loss. That is not a theology of grace."
The Rt Rev Welby was backed by the Archbishop of Canterbury Dr Rowan Williams, who leaves his post after a decade in office at the end of the year.
He told the General Synod he believed it was time to "turn a page".
"I am rather clearer that a no vote would not do anything positive for our mission in this country," he said.
