First, DISD Opened a High School for Over-Age Students. Now, Perhaps, Comes Middle School.
Lots of interesting items to be found on the Dallas Independent School District board of trustees' briefing agenda for Thursday, and we'll get to 'em in short order -- which is to say, in the order the phone calls are returned on the myriad subjects of interest. But let's begin with this: At its first meeting of the new year, trustees will be given an update on how things are working out at the John Leslie Patton Jr. Academic Center -- the opened-this-school-year high school intended "to serve the special needs of over-age, undercredited students."
At the same time, trustees will revisit a subject very briefly introduced about a year ago but quickly shelved for a later date: the need for an "accelerated high school." Which is? The briefing doc says little, only this: "The district is exploring the possibility of creating an accelerated middle school to meet the needs of struggling middle school students." But per the U.S. Department of Education, which is studying the very subject, we find this better definition:
Accelerated middle schools are self-contained academic programs designed to help middle school students who are behind grade level catch up with their age peers. If these students begin high school with other students their age, the hope is that they will be more likely to stay in school and graduate. The programs serve students who are one to two years behind grade level and give them the opportunity to cover an additional year of curriculum during their one to two years in the program. Accelerated middle schools can be structured as separate schools or as schools within a traditional middle school.
I asked DISD spokesman Jon Dahlander: How does opening a new middle school jibe with the state's $27-billion budget shortfall and all the concerns over expanding class size and reducing the number of teachers? To which he responded: This new middle school would more than likely "be an extension of the over-age high school."
He says that "when we were doing our research on that a year or so ago, we realized we have a lot of middle school students who are over their age for their grade. In a presentation given to the board at the time, we said we need to do both. The board put off the middle school for a year, and it's coming back now, and while it's being called something a little different, it's more or less the same."
Dahlander says that quite possibly, the trustees would look at repurposing a current facility -- say, one of the district's so-called "alternative schools" -- where enrollment is "a concern." Updates forthcoming.

New Orleans is one of three cities chosen Tuesday as finalists to land Super Bowl LII in 2018 as the NFL owners met during their fall meeting in Washington.
Indianapolis and Minneapolis were the other cities.
The owners are expected to decide on the winning candidate in May at the league's spring meeting.
Three other cities had submitted applications — Miami, Dallas and Tampa, Fla. — according to NFL Media's Albert Breer.
New Orleans has hosted 10 Super Bowls, with the last one on Feb. 3.
New Orleans officials are seeking the city's record 11th Super Bowl to coincide with celebrations for the city's tricentennial.
"The Super Bowl is a celebration of unparalleled magnitude. What better time for New Orleans to host its record 11th Super Bowl than during a party 300 years in the making?" said Jay Cicero, Greater New Orleans Sports Foundation president and CEO in a news release. "New Orleans' reputation as a Super Bowl host is second to none. We are excited to begin the official bid process to showcase our city's unique culture, spirit and love of major events once again to the NFL. Most importantly, we appreciate the essential support of the New Orleans Saints, Mr. and Mrs. (Tom and Gayle) Benson, Rita Benson LeBlanc and the entire Saints staff in maintaining New Orleans' position as a Super Bowl city."
According to the news release, the process will begin as soon as the bid cities receive the official bid documents from the NFL and will conclude in May 2014 with a presentation to the 32 NFL owners.
"Having hosted 10 Super Bowls, our community recognizes the sizeable economic impact and exposure that this event delivers, and each year the number of cities seeking consideration to host increases. If invited, the New Orleans Saints and the Greater New Orleans Sports Foundation will showcase New Orleans as the premier city for the largest and most successful annual sporting event in the world," Cicero said.

I wonder if you can quit a game that isn't even there yet. Quite pathetic, you may say. And yes, you can have my stuff... wait. There isn't yet any there.
Be that as it is, I need this as a sort of spiritual hygene. I feel I need to wash myself of the dirt, ash from flaming and other less than healthy substances my mind has caught while dealing with
You know, I am a
Star WarsFinal Fantasy fan as long as SWFF exists. And yes, while we all have our different approaches and we all love different things about Star War Final Fantasy, I always felt, what made our fandom great was, everyone could be who or what he wanted. We didn't have any prejudices against anyone's personal approach to Star WarsFinal Fantasy. For me, SWFF, as in contrast to Star TrekWoW, always mean a vast galaxy, tens of thousands of worlds and intelligent species, an endless plethora of really different settings. Not like TrekWoW, where essentially all aliens are humans with odd ears or foreheads and all cultures are just a copy of some earth historical cultre. No, SWFF was dirty, diverse and dark. SWTORFinal Fantasy XIV is none of it. It's bright coloured like WOW in spaceEorzea, it's narrow and streamlined at every possible way. Now for two years I tried to fight for a better SWTORXIV. And while sure not every single wish can be manifested, I am just DONE with the arrogance of the developers and the arrogance of the fans. There comes a time and point when you realize, this game is not for you and never will. It is a sort of a heartbreaking realization for me, since SWFF is my greatest fandom for 2520 years, and I dived into the depths of everything SWFF for a long time. I feel sort of like the old Jolee Bindo, when he was asked why he left the Jedi Order, and Jolee answered: "It left me." And so it is with TORXIV. SWTORXIV developed into some beast, I don't feel at home anymore.
The list of things
TORXIV does NOT have did grow considerably faster than the list of things we know we CAN do. It's like cutting a dream away, slice by slice, until there is nothing left by the shell of a SWFF game. I am too tired to go into all the details. The cuts and limitations have been discussed enough, and after 4-5 years of MMOs with broken promises, of ignoring their fans and endlessly making us wait for the "all made nice miracle patch", I am just tired and worn out. I trusted game companies time and again, always buying the games with the hope they will make it better later. They never did. They took the money and essentially ran off with it. In every single case of the last MMORPGs published the last few years, and I can't take that sort of disappointment anymore. Not in Star Wars.Final Fantasy.
So I am taking my leave from this game. I won't but it. You,
BiowareSE, have cut down the great dream of Star WarsFinal Fantasy and narrowed it to the one strength you undeniably have: storytelling. And for me, that is just not good enough. You never should have decided to make a MMO in the first place, because in my very personal opinion, you have no clue what makes a MMO. What you are doing is the same Cryptic did with Champions and STO. You know the IP hype alone with pay via the box sales, give or take a few lifetimers and some months keeping people with promises, and then you have your share. Star WarsFinal FAntasy doesn't mean heck to you, and I am sorry to say, you never ever should have gotten that IP into your hands. Seeing how you broke this great fantasy is indeed heartbreaking for a SWFF fan like me. In the end, it leaves me with bitterness and the sour taste of another mediocre MMO, and SWFF really would have deserved a greater vision than the narrow human-only-storytelling Procrustes Bed you are making of it. Your vision is narrow, and reading such arrogant wording like Mr. EricksonTanaka ("we know better that people can't relate to freak charactersdon't like flying or jumping") just shows me you have zero humility towards the IP and you have that same arrogance which was the downfall of all your predessecors in MMOs.
Fine. Have it your way. But your way of making
Star WarsFinal Fantasy isn't mine.t

Luke 13:1-22 This passage in Luke has special meaning to me because the plea of the vine dresser became a prayer my husband and I prayed for a church we were attending. In this church the pastor was open to the things of the Spirit, but most of his congregation were not. They did not want any changes. We were in this church for three years when we attended a Sunday school retreat. The retreat was in Calloway Gardens in South Georgia, and we were in charge of getting the speaker. read more

Coming Ready or Not
Luke 12:35-59 Remember the game "hide and seek"? One child closes his eyes and counts to ten while the other child hides. At the count of ten, the child opens his eyes and begins his search by saying, "Coming ready or not!" Then this child diligently searches high and low to find where the other child is hiding. I recall being a child hiding, and the moment the one who sought me found me, my heart jumped and I always yelled loudly "Boo" to scare him. read more
God's Pleasure
Luke 12:8-34 My life verse is Philippians 2:13: "It is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure." It was such a joy to have this understanding when I was twenty-six years old. I was at a retreat, and our leader instructed us to go out by the lakeside and be quiet and still before the Lord. We were instructed to ask the Lord questions and then wait for answers. Waiting for an answer when I prayed was a new experience for me, as usually all my prayers were one-way conversations with the Lord. What happened in a twenty-minute span of time changed my whole life. read more
Peace Brings Joy
Proverbs 12:19-20 Counselors of peace have joy." Romans 14:17 tells us, "For the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit." In yesterday's reading we learned that Jesus is the kingdom of God. He is all righteousness, all peace and all joy, and we can enter into the kingdom when we ask Jesus to come into our hearts and take over our lives. I do not know a person on earth who does not desire to be right with God and his fellowman, to have peace and to experience joy. Jesus came preaching the kingdom of God, and sometimes we forget this is our message also. In addition to preaching the kingdom, we also now can tell of the crucifixion, death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ, who now sits in heaven making intercession for us. The gospel should contain all of these facts. read more
Jesus Redeems Our Mistakes
Luke 11:14-36 One of the favorite expressions in our family is, "Well, nobody is perfect." We all make mistakes, and I am so ever grateful for our Lord Jesus Christ, who is our redeemer. He is able to take our messes and make something worthwhile out of them. As I was reading this morning about another ministry Jesus had, I recalled an incident I experienced in India. read more
One Thing Is Needed
Luke 10:38-11:13 Our pastor has said that we have to remember to keep the main thing the main thing. When we look at our lives, we have to ask ourselves, "What is the main thing?" I had a friend who put on her refrigerator a sign that said, "What difference will this make 10,000 years from now?" Priorities change when we realize that our life here on earth is but a hands breadth. Those who know Jesus Christ personally will live forever with Him. Jesus told Martha that she was careful and troubled about many things, but Mary had chosen the one thing needful. Mary chose to sit at His feet and learn of Him. Without Him we can do nothing. When we realize this, we will spend more time sitting at His feet as Mary did. read more
What You Say Is What You Get
Proverbs 12:12-14 One of my constant prayers is that the law of kindness would be upon my tongue and that my conversations would be seasoned with grace. There is a proverb that says that pleasant words are health to our bones. This proverb says that we are satisfied with good by the fruit of our lips. read more
Laborers for the Harvest
Luke 9:51-10:12 From the time my three sons were toddlers, I prayed that all three would be used as laborers in the last great harvest. Jesus exhorts us to pray for the Lord of the harvest to send forth laborers. The harvest is great, but the laborers are few. The Lord sends the laborers. He speaks to the potential laborer and gives him the call for his special field. read more
Psalm 73:1-28 Where will your focus be today? Here the psalmist looks at the people around him. He compares himself with those who are ungodly and realizes they seem to be better off than he is. He reminds God of how he has cleansed his own heart, but he cannot see the benefits of living a righteous life. His complaint to God is the same as that of many Christians today: "What's the use in trying to be good and going God's way when nothing is working out?" But then he goes into the sanctuary and draws near to God. He realizes that the wicked will eventually perish, but he will not. He thanks God for His faithfulness in holding his hand through hard times, for His guidance, counsel and strength. Then he shares this wonderful statement: "It is good to draw near to God; to put our trust in Him and to declare His works." The psalmist first sees only the people who are close to him and the circumstances around him. At the end of this psalm, he is given a supernatural pair of glasses to see beyond those things he is experiencing. He focuses on the God who is in control of all things. To receive healing for his eyesight, however, he had to go into the sanctuary and draw near to God. He had to retreat from his circumstances and the people who surrounded him and get alone with God. In the sanctuary there were no distractions and his attention was focused only on God. read more
Like Rain on Fresh Mown Grass
Psalm 72:1-20 Vladimir, our Russian son, has been our gardener for the seven years he has lived with us. I remember the first time he cut the grass; he was so very proud of his accomplishment. Shortly after the grass was mowed, a shower came; we both stood in the carport and breathed in the elegant smell of rain on freshly mowed grass. There is nothing to compare with this smell. This psalm gives a beautiful description of what will happen to people who fear the Lord. One of the promises of God to those who fear Him is, "They shall fear thee as long as the sun and moon endure, throughout all generations. He shall come down like rain upon the mown grass: as showers that water the earth" (vv. 5-6, KJV). read more
Fear Not, Believe Only
Luke 8:41-9:6 Jairus had just heard the news that his daughter was dead. Can you imagine his amazement when he heard Jesus say, "Fear not, believe only?" This story has a happy ending because Jesus raised Jairus' daughter from the dead. read more
Where Is Your Faith?
Luke 8:22-40 We have had the opportunity to cross the Sea of Galilee many times. Our guide usually points out the fact that storms can come up quite suddenly on the sea because of the Golan Heights that surround the sea. Jesus was peacefully sleeping through the storm while His disciples were frantically bailing water out of the boat. Jesus rebuked the wind and the raging waters and suddenly all was calm. Then Jesus asked them, "Where is your faith?" read more
He That Is Forgiven Much Loves Much
Luke 7:36-8:3 In response to the those who questioned His willingness to allow a woman who was a sinner to wash His feet, Jesus told a parable: "There was a certain creditor which had two debtors: the one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty. And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both. Tell me therefore, which of them will love him most? Simon answered and said, I suppose that he, to whom he forgave most. And he said unto him, Thou hast rightly judged" (Luke 7:41-43, KJV). read more
The Lord Is One God
Deuteronomy 5:1-6:25 The Jewish people say this phrase, "Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord," whenever they are gathered together at a temple or synagogue. Jewish people and Christians do have much in common. Both are sons of Abraham, both are believers in the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and both are chosen by God to be a special people. read more
What We See in Others Is in Ourselves
Luke 6:39-7:10 So often I stand in judgment of others, and soon discover I am guilty of the very same things I see critically in others. You've heard the old expression, "When you point your finger at someone, four fingers are pointing back at you." Isaiah 58 speaks of God's chosen fast, and one of the things listed we need to fast from is the pointing of the finger. If our church could go on such a fast, we would have unity in the church. read more
Prayer Vigils
Luke 6:12-38 Over the years I have experienced many prayer vigils. One particularly comes to mind. Our little neighborhood women's prayer group decided to spend all night in prayer at my home. We tried to pray from 8 at night to 8 in the morning. We failed miserably. We kept falling asleep, and often we talked more than we prayed simply because we knew if we closed our eyes we would be off to sleep again. Jesus, however, did not have any problem spending a whole night in prayer. This scripture says Jesus continued all night in prayer. read more
God's Divine Meat Grinder
Psalm 66:1-20 Have you ever been through God's divine meat grinder? Some people today do not believe that God tests us, but the Bible says clearly that we are tested by the Lord. The request by God for Abraham to sacrifice Isaac was clearly a test from God. God, however, is not the tempter. James tells us that we are led astray by our own lusts and then tempted. He says, "Let no one say when he is tempted, 'I am tempted by God'; for God cannot be tempted by evil" (James 1:13). read more
Choosing to Enter God's Presence
Psalm 65:1-13 It was a cold wintry day, and someone was knocking violently at my door. I looked through the peephole to discover two frightened young ladies who seemed desperate. Then I heard dogs barking in the background. I opened the door, and they said, "Please let us in!! Some dogs are chasing us!!" They were going door to door selling magazines, and some neighborhood dogs were following them. I let them in quickly, and they ended up staying with me for two hours. They were so relieved to find a refuge in my home. After some conversation and some hot tea, one of the ladies asked, "Don't you get lonely in this big house?" My husband was at work, and my children were at school. I answered, "No, I never get lonely because the Father, Son and Holy Spirit are always with me, and we have a tea party every day." Suddenly one of the ladies said with urgency in her voice, "We've got to go now." I guess they thought I was crazy, but at least my statement finally made them leave. read more
Proverbs 11:22 Today's proverb is one of my favorites. Whenever I meet a woman who lacks discretion, immediately I have this mental picture of a pig with a beautiful gold-jeweled ring in her snout. Sometimes I have to battle this image in my mind, because it does cause me to be closed to anything this woman might have to say. read more
The Anointing for Ministry
Luke 4:1-32 So many in this day are seeking the anointing, but few realize that we already have the anointing. We have the same anointing for ministry that Jesus had. Isaiah lists seven aspects of this anointing of the Holy Spirit in Isaiah 11:1-2: read more

5 December 1960, Tucson, Arizona, USA. Following the example of his father and brother, Alex and David Bromberg, Brian took up the drums at the age of 13 but within a year he had switched first to cello and then to playing bass on which instrument he studied classical music. His music studies continued through high school and at university, where he played with classical and jazz groups. When he was 19 Bromberg was recommended by Marc Johnson, then bass player with Bill Evans, to Stan Getz. After a year with Getz he went on to perform, mostly now on electric bass, with musicians such as Monty Alexander, Richie Cole, Joe Farrell, Dizzy Gillespie, Dave Grusin, Freddie Hubbard, Lee Ritenour, Horace Silver, Toots Thielemans and Sarah Vaughan. While with Alexander he was heard by and met Jaco Pastorius who became an important influence.

Rachel Chacko provides useful background information on spices and seasonings as well as authentic and detailed preparation techniques. She has taken special care to present the recipes to today's daughters in an easy to prepare manner, given the modern day pressure on time. The book is also unique because it contains classic recipes from the Syrian Christian community in India - to which Rachel Chacko belongs - like Appam, Egg Roast and Green Gram Payasam which have tickled taste buds across India.
Rachel Chacko was born in 1924, in Thiruvananthapuram in the erstwhile princely state of Travancore. She did her Bachelor of Arts from Women's Christian College and Bachelor of Training from St Christopher's College in Madras. As a school teacher, in a career spanning over four decades, she has taught in schools in different parts of the country.

I am a mother to two beautiful boys, ages 13 and 10, and I am a stroke survivor. I don't smoke, I exercise five times a week, I have no history of stroke in my family, and I don't have high cholesterol or blood pressure.
I started a new job in 2013. I was excited and nervous because I knew it would be a great opportunity, but I also knew I had to prove that I was more than capable of doing the job.
On Oct. 24, my last day of orientation, we were learning about the signs and symptoms of stroke. Little did I know I was having a stroke at that exact moment. I didn't have the typical symptoms that they were teaching us; my face didn't droop, my speech wasn't slurred, I did however lose vision in my left eye. I ignored this sign, blaming stress and went home to relax.
That night, I remember that my head hurt like never felt before and it felt heavy. My body was cold but my head felt hot, so I grabbed ice and put it on my head and I took some ibuprofen. The next morning, I woke up and my head still felt heavy, as if it were heavier than my entire body. It was a very strange feeling, but I got ready to go to work anyway.
Within two hours, my right arm went numb. I didn't have the strength to even grab a napkin. I was scared; I went to my manager who sent me to the ER. I never would have expected that this was happening to me.
The ER admitted me right away. At this point I was having a hard time grasping what was happening to me. They drew 17 tubes of blood and sent me for a MRI, MRA and CT scan. Once the test results returned, the doctor told me I had a Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA) or "mini stroke" and a stroke. I was 38 and in shock.
Millions of questions started popping into my head, and I couldn't believe what I was being told. They put me on blood thinners to prevent a devastating stroke. I was in the hospital for four days, and I wasn't able to go trick-or-treating with my kids for Halloween like I've always done.
The scariest part was yet to come. On Nov. 3, I woke up and the right side of my face and my right arm were numb.
The dread washed over me as the staff explained the gravity of my situation. This was my second event in a matter of days. I was transferred to Long Beach Memorial because they are a primary stroke receiving center.
They discovered I had a rare medical disorder known as fibromuscular dysplasia, where fibrous tissue in the walls of my arteries caused narrowing. My left carotid artery had a tear and blood was collecting and blocking the flow to my brain. Many discussions were about which treatment would be best – surgery or to place a stent – both presented their own risks.
The stroke care team recommended I undergo a stent – a less-invasive treatment. One of my doctors came to the room and encouraged me not to wait; I could have had another stroke at any second.
After a six-hour surgery, I remember waking up with pain in the left side of my head where they put the stent into my blocked artery. The next day it wasn't as bad and I was transferred to a regular room, and they had me on pain medication. I was discharged two days later, with Plavix for three months and aspirin for the rest of my life.
I want to thank so many doctors and nurses. But a special thanks to Dr. Satoshi Tateshima and his group of interventional neuroradiologists for giving me the opportunity to live my life again. Thank you to my family and friends for being there when I needed them the most, their support was and is vital to my recovery.
I still have to take care of myself and it will take a year to fully recuperate. I encourage everyone to know the signs of stroke and don't ignore them. If you suspect you or someone is having a stroke, don't waste any time, seek medical help immediately.

He might be a fitness icon for many youngsters, but now John Abraham wants the older lot to take to fitness too.
That's because he thinks that Indians have a tendency to develop pot-bellies in their latter years. He tells CS, "Youngsters these days move out of their house very early, leaving their parents alone. So, I think it is important for parents to take their health seriously.
If nothing, they should go for walks everyday. Their children could lead them to the road to health." Well John, looks like your fan base will soon include the uncles and aunties and the dadas and dadis of this world too.

Ramp and Sausage Risotto
Recipe by Queen Dana
Published in Bon Appetit April 2009.
Top Review by Dr. Jenny
This was an easy to make, spicy risotto, which we enjoyed. I recently stayed at a vineyard B&B in Traverse City and we picked wild ramps growing in the woods on the property, which I used in this risotto. We used more Italian sausage than specified, which I kind of regretted--too meaty. I think the 1/2 lb is likely a perfect proportion. Other than that, we made no modifications to the ingredients or directions. Thanks!
See Discussion:1 Review
Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1⁄2 lb hot Italian sausage, casings removed
- 12 ramps, trimmed (bulbs and slender stems sliced, green tops thinly sliced)
- 1 cup arborio rice
- 1⁄2 cup dry vermouth
- 3 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth (may need more)
- 1⁄2 cup parmesan cheese, freshly grated (plus additional for passing)
Directions See How It's Made
- Melt butter in heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add sausage. Cook until no longer pink, breaking up with spoon, about 5 minutes. Add sliced ramp bulbs and stems. Saute until almost tender, about 2 minutes. Add rice and stir 1 minute. Add vermouth. Simmer until liquid is absorbed, about 1 minute. Add 3 cups chicken broth, 1 cups at a time, simmering until almost absorbed before next addition and stirring often. Continue cooking until rice is just tender and risotto is creamy, adding more broth if dry and stirring often, about 18 minutes. Mix in green tops and 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese. Season risotto to taste with salt and pepper. Serve, passing additional grated cheese separately.

CHRB seeks expansion of mini-satellites
ARCADIA, Calif. - A severe decline in handle through California's off-track wagering network in recent years is evidence that the state needs to develop a network of mini-satellites in card clubs and sports bars, according to David Israel, vice chairman of the California Horse Racing Board.
On Friday, the racing board heard testimony from racing officials that the Southern California Off-Track Wagering Inc. network of betting locations at county fairgrounds and racetracks throughout the region was operating at a deficit that was being offset by monies that would have gone to purses or racetrack commissions.
The network has suffered a decline of 40 percent in the last eight years because of the migration of handle to account-wagering sites, through the Internet and telephone, and due to a poor economy.
In 2007, legislation approved wagering on racing at card clubs and mini-satellites, but so far only one card club - the Commerce Casino, near downtown Los Angeles - has opened. Officials have held discussions with sports bar operators in San Clemente and Santa Barbara, but so far no one has approached the racing board seeking a license.
The Commerce Club mini-satellite, which opened last July, has averaged $80,000 in handle a day, taking bets on both the afternoon and evening races.
Israel, speaking at Santa Anita on Saturday, said a network of such sites could force the existing satellites to be more competitive to draw customers. The sports bars in particular, he said, hold the most appeal to attracting new customers and increasing handle.
"They attract new and different people that are interested in sports," he said. "When they see how much fun it is, they might come to the track on a Saturday or Sunday."
Israel said racing has developed the habit of catering to its own customer base and ignoring other sports fans that could develop an interest.
"We have an opportunity to branch out to new people," he said.
Some sports bars in urban areas need waivers from racetracks to open mini-satellites if they are within 20 miles of an existing satellite. New legislation is being considered that would reduce the range to 15 miles.
Israel and racing board chairman Keith Brackpool told Southern California Off-Track Wagering Inc. officials to present a five-year business plan to the board in coming months.

This pattern is by Mary Konior. In looking at my other books by her I have noticed that she has another pattern that is simular to this one. I made this out of a sample of King Tut Quilting thread that Gina sent to me and some pink of same kind of thread that I bought from Deb Arnold in Hector.
So now ...I am at loose ends...I wonder what I will do next....I don't even know let alone you...LOL

Their service was consistently excellent. Their services could be enhanced by finding a better network of supporting services (like handymen, stagers, closers, etc.).

Remembering Sir John 'Sandy' Woodward
Live updates
Thatcher paid nearly £2,000 for son's rescue, documents reveal
Margaret Thatcher insisted on paying nearly £2,000 towards the search for her son after he went missing in the Sahara desert amid concerns of a public backlash over taxpayers' money being used, newly-released files reveal.
Mark Thatcher went missing for six days in January 1982 during rally, along with his French co-driver, Anne-Charlotte Verney, and their mechanic.
They were eventually found after a search by the Algerian military.
Records released for the first time to the National Archives show that Mrs Thatcher paid a total of £1,784.80 for the search operation to avoid any criticism over costs to British taxpayers.
Government wanted to pull England out of 1982 World Cup
The British government considered pulling England out of the 1982 World Cup as war broke out over the Falkland Islands, according to documents released by the National Archives under the 30-year rule.
In the aftermath of the Falklands conflict, sports governing bodies were urged to pull out of competitions with Argentinian teams because players might find it "difficult to meet Argentina on a sports field" if fighting was continuing.
But the documents show that cabinet ministers debated whether pulling out of the 1982 Football World Cup in Spain would send the right message.
In the end, England played and was knocked out in the second round.
Reagan urged Thatcher not to 'humiliate' Argentina in Falklands
US President Ronald Reagan issued a last-ditch appeal to Margaret Thatcher to abandon her campaign to retake the Falklands and to hand over the islands to international peacekeepers, according to official documents made public today.
Files released by the National Archives under the 30-year-rule show that Mr Reagan called the Prime Minister on 31 May 1982 as British troops were closing in on final victory.
"The best chance for peace was before complete Argentine humiliation," he told her, and urged her "to hand over the Queen's islands to a contact group".
Mrs Thatcher replied that she would not consider a ceasefire before the Argentinians withdrew from the Falklands.
Letter reveals 'James Bond' ploy to stop Argentine arms buyers
Documents released by the National Archives under the 30-year-rule reveal that Margaret Thatcher's Attorney General, Sir Michael Havers, devised an elaborate plan to deceive Argentinian arms buyers in the run-up to the Falklands war.
Havers came up with the ploy in league with a friend in the air freight business in June 1982.
In a letter to Prime Minister Thatcher, he admitted himself that the idea was "more appropriate to a James Bond movie!"
The ploy involved approaching potential arms exporters with the offer of providing a freight service, and then redirecting the weapons to a safe location.
Jimmy Savile tells Thatcher he 'loves' her in 1982 letter
A letter from the late broadcaster Sir Jimmy Savile to the then-Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher has been released by the National Archives under the 30-year rule.
In the 1982 letter, Savile thanks the Prime Minister for a lunch he attended and even proclaims his love for her.

PRIME Minister Tony Abbott's daughter Frances is keen to use her public profile to help the community and support causes close to her heart.
The 23-year-old Whitehouse Institute of Design fashion student was part of a glamour Sunday Style shoot yesterday to support Witchery's 2014 White Shirt Campaign, raising awareness and funds for Ovarian Cancer Research.
"I want to get involved in a lot more community things this year, especially if it can involve clothing and fashion as well," she says.
"None of us knows how long Dad is going to be in office. I want to do what I can for as long as I can to help out as much as I can," said Ms Abbott, who relocated to Melbourne last week.
She was particularly pleased to be a part of the campaign wearing a white shirt designed by Whitehouse student Jaye Hensley.
The Witchery White Shirt Design Award recipient's design will be included in this year's collection of nine official shirts (seven women's and two men's), which go on sale online and in stores from April 10.
"There is nothing better than having the opportunity to support a cause like this and an emerging designer."
Ms Abbott says sister Bridget also features in the campaign, which was shot in Sydney earlier in the week.
"Bridgy and I are excited to be a part of the campaign," Ms Abbott says.
While the pretty pair played a key role in Abbott's pre-election campaign, Ms Abbott says she's kept a low profile since her father won office.
"To be honest, things have been pretty quiet after the election. It would be a very different story if we lived in the States."
While the family is very close, Ms Abbott says she's excited to be living independently
for the first time in Melbourne.
"This is a very new thing for us to be separated. It was time for me to leave the nest," she says.
All proceeds from the sale of the White Shirt collection go to the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation for their research to find an early detection test for ovarian cancer.

I choose Drupal as a CMS for a business project back in 2003. I spent weeks installing multiple CMSes, the top 20 ranked by CMS Matrix (http://www.cmsmatrix.org).
At the time, Drupal was very young, but what caught my attention was the leadership and community openness and size. Since then I have never looked back or considered using another cms / framework.
