Hell is the song in He Is Coming For You Next.
The mood of this stage is generally aggressive, and motivates the player to start fighting EL KING. If the player is racing, the song tends to get the player on edge, always checking their back for EL KING in case he is stalking. Beware for him!

Electric Boulevard is a chain of electronic stores that appear in Vice City in 1984, during the events of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories. The chain has stores located in Ocean Beach, Vice Point, Little Havana, and Downtown. The stores are all accessible to the player. The name of the store is likely based off of the song "Electric Avenue" by Eddy Grant, which was made a year before this game.
The stores are all absent in 1986, the events of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.

I own an Odyssey, a Kindle 3 (now Kindle Keyboard) and an eDGe. But I had the chance of testing for a couple of days a friend's Sony PRS-T1.
The screen of the Odyssey looks a bit more gray than the T1 or the K3. But, in my opinion, it does not influence the reading experience that much. Overall, the Odyssey does a very good job when you want to read EPUBs and you want to fine-tune your reading experience (but they should include a setting for the margins, I agree.)
Pro's: many advanced settings while reading EPUBs, you can load your own fonts (!!!), side buttons for turning pages, aluminium back, you can create and use your own dictionaries
Con's: USB driver still to be fixed (new firmware: when???), power switch difficult to operate, no PDF reflow
If you have a chance of trying it, please proceed. As suggested above, if you want to get one, check that it does not have assembling problems (buttons, power switch, microUSB port).

(A book in the Acadians series)
A novel by Cherie Claire
Raised by Captain Jean Bouclaire, Delphine Delaronde lost her heart to his partner Philibert Bertrand when she was just a girl. But when she finally came of age and confessed her love to the dashing Louisiana smuggler, he dismissed her '"juvenile crush." Embarrassed and hurt Phiney fled to France, hoping to forget his cruel rejection, unaware that Phil had realized too late the precious gift he had cast aside. When fate brought them together again, Delphine had inherited a title, and a noblewoman's reponsibilities. Now she seems beyond Philibert's reach forever. But beneath the poise and grace of the beautiful countess beats the passionate heart of a woman who will never give up her one true love.

In one of my current classes we have been assigned to choose a topic and create our own content on our topic. I have chosen "Assassins Creed Lore" as my topic and have started writing my own view on the games/story/characters/etc.
All the content so far (can be viewed here) has been written by me to educate or entertain the masses on Assassins Creed. I do browse around from some refresher information, but also throw the games in so I can gather other information.
The website itself can be viewed here: http://ev4sion.com/assassins_creed_lore
The content I have written has not been copied from any site as I realize that the story of the game and for all the characters can be found just about anywhere. My intention is to have it all summarized for the casual reader who does not want to know EVERYTHING there is to know about each element.
The site is a work in progress, but if you view it please feel free to let me know of anything I could do. Add/remove/edit/etc., any of the content to better fit the storyline.

News: Politics
President Maduro Signs Several Laws Before Decree Powers Expire
Caracas, January 3, 2016 (venezuelanalysis.com) – Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro signed several laws just days before the recently elected and opposition-led National Assembly is sworn in.
The laws cover aspects in economy, social security and grassroots initiatives and were decreed through the so-called Enabling Law.
The laws were announced by Maduro on Wednesday December 30th - including a significant tax reform for "big capital".
The reform seeks to eliminate tax evasion and will remove inflationary adjustment for big business.
"This reform is not targeted at individuals or people who do not have big capital. Is directed at big capital, a group of 3,000 taxpayers who should be contributing more," said President Maduro.
In addition, a unified system of importations and exportations will be implemented. A levy of 0.75 percent will be charged on every large transaction to guarantee the income of foreign currency to maintain the social programs developed by the state.
Several changes were also made to the Exchange Law (Régimen Cambiario y sus ilícitos) and the system known as CENCOEX which is used to apply for state regulated foreign currency.
In particular, the reforms look to reinforce punishments for speculative practices amongst venders who sell products according to an inflated black market dollar rate - especially if they have received state subsidised dollars in order to import goods.
The head of state also created the Plan of Mining Development 2016-2018 and the Organic Law for the Development of Petrochemical Activities.
The first law outlines the provisions for the creation of mixed enterprises – with the Venezuelan state retaining at least 55 percent of shares – for gold and other strategic minerals projects.
Both projects seek to increase and diversify national production and to attract foreign investment.
During his weekly program In Contact With Maduro last Tuesday, Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro also announced the creation of the "Presidential Councils of the People's Government" as an organ of the state.
These councils offer direct communication between grassroots initiatives and the president and cover a wide-variety of areas such as sexual diversity and LGBTQ, workers' rights or campesino issues.
The presidential councils should also assure that proposed projects and laws are completed as intended by the grassroots of the revolution.
Additionally, the Popular Council of State was created by the president as an instrument where the Venezuelan people can participate directly in the work of the government.
Both initiatives are aimed at promoting popular power and Venezuela's participatory democratic model.
To guarantee the social security of the working class, Maduro also signed a decree to protect the employment of workers and shield them against unjustified dismissals until 2018.
The move was widely interpreted as an attempt to undermine opposition plans to implement mass dismissals once they take their posts in the National Assembly on January 5th.
The head of state also passed the management of the Mountain Barrack, former president Hugo Chávez' burial site, to the Hugo Chávez Foundation for the next 100 years.
The delegation means that the Chávez's body cannot be legally removed from the site for the next century.
Spokespeople from the Democratic Unity Roundtable have threatened to close the place since winning 2/3 of the National Assembly in the parliamentary elections.
The National Assembly granted the President constitutional authority to decree laws in March 2015. This authority expired on December 31st.

While Laura Ingraham was walking through a Northern Virginia shopping mall one Saturday afternoon, it all became clear to her. Everywhere she turned, she saw signs of the impending disaster: zombie teens texting each other across a café table; a man having his eyebrows threaded at a kiosk; a 50ish woman shoe-horned into a tube top and skinny jeans; and a storefront ad featuring a Victoria's Secret model spilling out of her push-up bra and into the faces of young passersby. Ingraham wondered to herself, "Is this it? Is this what our forefathers fought for? What my parents struggled for? I wonder if Victoria's Secret is still having that two-for-one sale?"
A menacing force surrounds us. We see it, we feel it, we know it. The country we love is in grave peril. While politicians and "experts" prattle on about the debt crisis at home, and terrorism abroad, a more insidious homegrown threat is emerging. It endangers our future and undermines our present. The uncomfortable truth: We have become our own worst enemy. The culture we have created is now turning on us. We're on the verge of drowning in our ignorance, arrogance, gluttony… can you believe there are only three shots of vanilla in a Caramel Macchiato?!?
Now, in an act of patriotic intervention, the most-listened-to woman in talk radio casts her satirical eye upon all that ails American society. In this sharp-witted, comic romp, Laura Ingraham takes you on a guided tour through 10 levels of our cultural hell.
You know we're in trouble when:
Airplane seats shrink - just as the passengers expand.
Celebrity baby names go from the peculiar (Apple, Stetson, and Daisy Boo) to the pathetic (Bamboo, Blanket, and Bronx).
People meticulously tend their virtual crops on Farmville, while their children eat takeout.
"Breaking News" usually means it happened yesterday.
The weddings last longer than the marriages.
Facebook has become a verb and reading has become an ancient art form.
Of Thee I Zing is cultural commentary too funny to ignore, igniting a national conversation long past due. America, your cultural recovery begins here.

Laura Is brilliant. As usual.
Politics is serious stuff. Sometimes it's hard to understand Laura breaks it down and makes you laugh at the same time. Wear a seat belt while listening to this one.
The author's use of homor to bring the facts out.
No. Break it up.

Wonderful and refreshing
Excellent book. Says in words what we are all thinking. Would recommend it to anyone with a brain.
Drop dead funny!! My husband asked what I was listening to because I laughed until I cried.

Hoboken Week in Review – 8/30/2009
Two more weeks till the NFL starts!
September to October might possibly be the two best months of the year for professional sports. The start of the NFL and the race towards the post-season in baseball. "Dud'nt get no better than this!"

Who else is "Caked Out?"
I've received quite a few emails that people are sick of hearing about Cake. 30-day moratorium on the subject. However, babies are exempt because cake can shut them up if they're wailing and screaming.
A notoriously bad intersection in Hoboken is, well, still pretty bad. Stopwatch ticking to see when the danger is remedied.
A Hoboken resident wonders if a city vehicle is being abused.
Over 25% of poll respondents have seen liquor getting watered down. One reader claims he saw it here in Hoboken. The owner denied it. Becomes "he said, he said."
Technically, we can make Hoboken larger. Is that a good or bad idea?
A new Hoboken resident isn't too keen on little dogs (and their owners).
Everyone in New Jersey lost the top prize in the Lottery.
Retro Hoboken band revived like Frankenstein.
Other Updates

Event Calendar
See what's happening this week on Hoboken411 event calendar!
- TODAY: You have old-school Hoboken band Krystal performing in Asbury Park; A Kitten Bonanza in Jersey City; and have some wine and cheese with local artist Jim Hans at Mackey Blue.

Quote of the Week:
"Like I said we're all chasin somethin. More money. More love. What we're really looking for is more life. But sometimes you go looking for more, and you wind up with less. It's a beautiful world. We ought to be satisfied. But the truth is… we all want more. Some take a chance for the rush of winning. Some for love. But you can't have your dream without laying something on the line. The key is not to risk what you can't afford to lose. You might think you're different. But someday… you're gonna want more too. The question is… What are you willing to lay on the line? "– Ending quote from the movie "Even Money"

Detailing the risks of insider threat in the financial sector is arguably easier than in any other. With huge volumes of sensitive financial and customer data, the threat of all kinds of fraud and insider trading, banks and other financial institutions have a lot to lose when it comes to user security.
The high risk explains why financial services is one of the most heavily regulated industries, with US laws like Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) and The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA), the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) regulatory body in the UK, and global compliance bodies, for example the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Security Standards Council.

The invitation comes weeks after Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav cancelled his lecture at the Harvard Business School to protest the "extended frisking" of Urban Development Minister Azam Khan at a Boston airport.
Officials said the invite from John Hopkins University, Baltimore, came to the minister, an uncle of Akhilesh Yadav, for the water sector restructuring project in Uttar Pradesh that has been lauded by the World Bank too.
In the second phase of the project, the lower Ganga canal would be regenerated and three dams would be built in the Bundelkhand area, an official said.
There is no word on whether Shiv Pal Singh Yadav will go ahead with the US visit, particularly after what happened to Azam Khan.
Sources said the minister was "very excited" but political considerations needed to be weighed.

New York City Expands Girl Scout Programs in Homeless Shelters
A Girl Scout troop founded in a New York City homeless shelter will expand to reach hundreds more girls in more than a dozen additional shelters.
A Girl Scout troop founded in a New York City homeless shelter will expand to reach hundreds more girls in more than a dozen additional shelters.
Come September, Girl Scouts will begin offering cybersecurity as its newest badge activity, meaning skills like coding and cryptography will be joining more traditional offerings like first aid and gardening.
Girl Scout cookies are just too, too tempting.
The Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas is severing ties with Girl Scouts of the USA based largely on a misunderstanding of their ties to Planned Parenthood and their suggestion that Gloria Steinem could be a role model for girls.
It's tough to find hope amid New York City's homelessness crisis, currently at levels not seen since the Great Depression. The ultra-posh skyscraper condos seem never to quit barreling into the skyline, at the expense of entire neighborhoods and affordable housing. This week, though, a story in the New York Times …
Much to the chagrin of many on social media and elsewhere, the Girl Scouts of the USA are set to march in Donald Trump's inaugural parade.
For the first time in the 90-year history of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, the Girl Scouts of the USA be joining in with their very own float.
President Obama has a genuine rapport with the nation's kids and teens that has made the White House Science Fair a special treat during his tenure, and God knows what the official White House position on "science" will be come March 2017. So let's take a moment to savor this annual event one last time.
For a few dollars, you too can be like recent Oscar winner Leonardo DiCaprio; at least, that's the sales pitch one Girl Scout troop in New York led with, and if we're honest, don't we all want to live like Leo in his free time?
Last night at the Academy Awards, Chris Rock embarked on a mission to help his daughters Lola and Zahra sell Girl Scout cookies. Troop members were unleashed into the audience, where they offered their delicious wares. But while Rock later announced that the Scouts had raised a triumphant $65,243, it turns out that he …
During Sunday night's Oscars, Chris Rock did a funny bit where he had his daughter's Girl Scout troop go out into the audience and get rich Hollywood people to give them money for cookies. Very cute, very nice. HOWEVER.
A Girl Scout in Portland had the bright idea to sell Girl Scout cookies right outside a local weed dispensary. Why didn't you think of that?
A group of girls in Santa Rosa, California are fighting to become official members of the Boy Scouts of America. The girls, who have dubbed themselves, "The Unicorns," expressed interest in joining the organization after participating in Learning for Life, a co-ed subsidiary of the Boy Scouts that helps develop skills…
Apparently Melissa McCarthy's next movie is Troop Beverly Hills but if Phyllis Nefler were a disgraced, post-prison lifestyle tycoon attempting a comeback on the backs of a bunch of Brownies (while teaching them some real-world skills).
On Tuesday night, a gaggle of Girl Scouts were enjoying the ultimate slumber party with First Lady Michelle Obama on the White House lawn when persnickety weather nearly ruined their plans and tents.
In May, the Girl Scouts of the United States of America announced that their organization is officially open to transgender girls. Soon after, the Girl Scouts of Western Washington received a large donation of $100,000 with this caveat: "Please guarantee that our gift will not be used to support transgender girls. If…
It's the most adorable time of the year: the White House Science Fair, when the nation gets to watch President Obama interact with charming, science-minded children.
Just like the rest of us, celebrities can't walk past a table of Girl Scouts without buying several boxes. That includes Tom Hanks, who (when recognized) stuck for pictures and told some passersby they could have a photograph... if they bought some cookies.
After endlessly reminding her mother that it was nearly time to pick up her Girl Scout cookies to sell them door-to-door, a little girl named Sinai was finally ready. But as she left her apartment's door in Indianapolis she was hit in the leg with a stray bullet.
The Girl Scouts are coming and this year, they are going to fuck up everything about your life with three new cookie flavors—two of which are gluten-free. Paging Phyllis Neffler, how many boxes will you be selling this year? More importantly, how many boxes can I eat without incurring diabetes? Because, let me be real…

Hi, I'm Elisa Kreisinger.
I gained popularity online as Pop Culture Pirate when I started remixing Mad Men into feminists and mashing up the Real Housewives into lesbians at a time when women were longing for more inclusive pop culture content.
I took my knowledge of female audiences to Upworthy as Creative Director in 2014 and then joined Refinery29 in 2015 as Executive Producer. I currently lead our news, entertainment and trending video verticals. I also host and produce Refinery29's iTunes top 20 podcast, Strong Opinions Loosely Held.
I love making stuff and sometimes those products create actual change. My 2012 US Copyright Office testimony helped win crucial exemptions to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, allowing online video to flourish across social platforms. My solo art show, Fair Use(r), resulted in a US Copyright Office White paper on appropriation art online.
I'm a 2013 Women in Technology Fellow at NYU School of Engineering and I speak around the world about the power of creating a more thoughtful and inclusive popular culture. My video work has been featured in galleries and museums across the US and Europe as well as in The New York Times, Ad Week, BuzzFeed, TIME and NY Magazine.

"Love the classes! They have such a great family vibe! Always willing to help you. I would definitely recommend going here!"

"My 7 year old was doing karate for 2 years but she was losing interest when we came upon a groupon for McHenry's so we decided to give them a try. So glad we did. That was 6 months ago. This is a family owned place. Mr and Mrs McHenry are awesome with the kids. What I appreciate the most as a parent is that they treat the kids as their own. They do not just teach martial arts but discipline them as well. Then there's the self defense part of the class. We feel so much better knowing that our child is learning to defend herself and can apply it if necessary. I won't deny that I too am learning a lot just by watching. I can honestly say taking our child to McHenry's is one of the best decisions we have ever made. Oh, and they give military discount too, which is highly appreciated."

"Good evening. First, I would like to say thank you very much for all the great support and help you have provided for me and my wife, as this is our first experience bringing our child to a martial arts class. I would also like to thank Mr. and Mrs. McHenry for the help and attention you both provided for my son Jaiden when he attended his first class Monday. He was scared and nervous when he first entered the class and you both showed him sympathy and compassion, but also how to have fun!!! So, thank you"
Mr. Michael D
Thank you so much for your time! It was incredible to sit and observe the classes and feel the energy! Nathan has changed so much already in such a positive way! He is a good, sweet boy and it was hard for me to see how negatively bullying had impacted him. I know right where he is at, for I was bullied as well. To see him hold his chest up after his first class last Friday...words are not enough to express just how wonderful that is and how much it means! Thank you.

Our client is a global company specializing in the development, production, and marketing of generic and proprietary branded pharmaceuticals as well as active pharmaceutical ingredients. Our client is among the top 20 companies and one of the largest generic pharmaceutical compan- ies in the world.
The Challenge
Our client merged with another Pharma manufacturer and needed to verify and test combined systems and operations in the areas of Commercial Contracting and Medicaid Rebate processing into a single system for the combined companies.
The Solution
Our client utilizes the I-many suite of applications for contract management (I-many CARS, I-many Medicaid and I-many Government Pricing) and SQA Solution is the exclusive provider of Software Quality Assurance resources and is responsible for providing full time, day-to-day, on site and remote test support.
SQA Solution's resources developed testing scripts and processes to merge iMany CARS Customer, Product and Contract data, automated membership loads and general data cleanup across the two companies. As well, we tested the merging of I-many Medicaid systems for Medicaid rebate processing.
- Medicaid Rebate Testing – Validate transfer summary level data from one company's I-many Medicaid system into our client's I-many Medicaid system and use only our client's I-many Medicaid system to manage this function going forward.
- Commercial Contracting Testing – Validate that the project was to test transfer contract, customer, membership, eligibility and historical transaction data from I-many DPS system into our client's I-many CARS system and use only the I-many CARS system to manage this function going forward.
SQA Solution performed an analysis of our client's GPS system examining each requirement in detail. Our team produced a test plan/cases document to serve as the foundation for scope of the implementation phase of the project.
SQA Solution tested a full implementation of new compliance requirements into the I-many Government Pricing System.
Our deliverable included:
- Test Strategy & Test Plan
- Test cases and test scripts to test changes to existing price calculations:
- Implementation testing of additional application functionality:
- FSS module, Alerts
- Enhancement and automation of data integration verification.
- Data reconciliation between GP and source systems validation.
- Historical data conversion testing.
- Testing enhancements to existing interfaces to bring in new data fields.
The Benefit
- Improved Customer Experience – Having in-house outsourced testing resources means that you have people familiar with internal processes who can ramp up or down according to your project needs.
- Reduced Costs – Past experience means faster implementations. And, faster implementations mean fewer hiccups and downtime – all of which save money.
- Expertise –SQA Solution's extensive experience with the Pharmaceutical and Biotechnology field means you can count on resources to come in and hit the ground running.
Customer Quote:
"We had a complicated merger and while we needed additional resources in testing, we couldn't afford to lose time while ramping up new people. SQA Solution's experience with our processes and with Pharma in general was a great asset."
—QA Manager

I sure am! I love Fall and pretty much everything about it!
So of course I wanted to join in the Fall fun with something crafty too!
Looking at the photo of this card just doesn't quite look as good as it does IRL! The colors are a bit off and of course you can't see the pretty shimmer on the pumpkins that I made with my Wink of Stella glitter pen. So if you would like to SEE it IRL, let me know!! :)
I didn't have any of the gorgeous Fall papers that Lawn Fawn carries, but I did find a few pieces of some Lawn Fawn papers that I thought would work for a Fall theme design. I also took the leaf image from the So Thankful set and stamped it with brown and vanilla inks right on top of the decorative papers. I thought the dots were a bit much and the leaves scattered around helped it to look more Fall. I also took the sentiment from that stamp set and fit it inside one of the images from the Bannerific stamp set and then used the coordinating die cut to pop it out over the card.
I colored in the pumpkins from the So Thankful set with my Copic markers and die cut those out with the coordinating die set as well and then layered them up over top of the stitched die cut circle. I also placed an embossed strip of brown card stock embossed with a woodgrain texture to place behind it. I added more die cut leaves to the banner and added some twine and a button at the top of the circle. And I called it done!
Hope you've enjoyed my creation for you today!
Thanks so much for stopping by and enjoy your weekend!
Here are some challenges I'd like to enter this card for:
{Cupcake Inspirations} - Fall cupcakes:
Sentimental Sundays - anything goes + sentiment
Shopping Our Stash - "Leaf" Me Alone!
The Crafter's Cafe - Thank You
Creative Knockouts - buttons

Hey Catherine, this is NOT a good way to behave if you're not a troll.
If you seriously think the Obama is not interested in bringing conservative forums such as FR down, and is not involved in infiltrating them/us, then you either are hopelessly naive, or trying to mock those of us who know the methods of the most unethical administration in the history of this Republic and actually are a troll.
In either case, you lose a point with this post, and make me think my original instinct was correct.
Perfectly done and said, ohioWfan!
Perfectly done and said, ohioWfan!
Oh, Ohio, for the love of heaven-—lighten up. Seriously.
Of course I believe Obama would love to get rid of conservatives' voices, and I have no doubt FR is at the top of his list. But I don't typically back down when confronted by idiocy, or clumsy attempts at intimidation. What do you expect——I'm going to cry and beg for a chance to prove myself? Not happening. My posting history either does that, or not.
You are absolutely free to think what you like. And for the record, and with all due respect, I'm not playing for points on your system.
God bless.


text: New client that had a large stump in the front yard. Someone at some point and time has attempted to grind it. It now sits well below the surface. My question is how much topsoil do I need to be able to put on it before I can Kay sod over it? I'm thinking I can probably get a good three inches plus sod and still have it be fairly even with the other grass. She is refusing to grind it anymore so that is not an option. Thought tips ideas ?

The Sunrays Baby Blanket pattern to crochet is now available. This easy one piece blanket starts at the center and works out in rounds.
It uses single crochets, double crochets, and chain stitches. The increases create 6 rays or wedges that end in a shell border.
I used 3 balls of Baby Bee Sweet Pomp from Hobby Lobby to make this 40" across baby blanket. That's about 1,000 yards of sport weight yarn with a size H hook. (I used 2 colors in the pictured blanket because I couldn't find another ball of the Sweet Pea colorway in the dyelot I needed. I added a ball of Bare Blue and alternated it with the Sweet Pea to have enough for my blanket. I like how it turned out.)
If you make Sunrays in cotton it would make a nice tablecloth or use a fine weight wool for a shawl. You'll need to change the hook size and you may need more yardage if you do this.
The pattern contains written instructions and a crochet symbol chart for the baby blanket. If you print it out on both sides of a sheet of paper, it will fold into a nice little brochure to tuck in your project bag.
The pattern costs $3.00 through my Ravelry pattern store.
Pattern prices subject to change without notice. Check my Ravelry Store for current pattern prices.

We all know how kids can be so funny – even when they aren't actually trying to be funny and are actually very serious! Pretty sure, you have a lot of anecdotes and plenty of photos of kids being so funny!
Would you share those with us?
While we wait for the photos you will send, let's check out the ones that had gone viral on the web for truly being funny. These tweets show kids doing rather silly things though we are willing to bet they didn't really intend to be hilarious and might even get angry if you told them they were funny. LOL.

Live updates

House prices in the East rising faster than elsewhere
House prices in the East of England rose faster than elsewhere in England during October according to the biggest survey in the UK.Read the full story ›
Half of all house sales in the East are first time buyers
House prices in East Anglia rising faster than anywhere outside London, but there are variations within the region.
Cambridgeshire: Prices up nearly 3% on last year.
Peterborough: Prices up more than 5 percent.
Suffolk: Prices up 2%.
Luton: No change
Milton Keynes: Slight dip in prices.

'Strong signs' for housing market in the East
The housing market in the East is in overdrive, that's according to figures out today.Read the full story ›
House prices on the rise in the East
House prices in the East hit a record high in July, according to figures out today.
The House Price Index reveals an increase of nearly 3% in our region compared to the same time last year - the highest rise outside London, with first time buyers accounting for 45% of all purchases.
House prices on the rise
House prices in East Anglia have recorded the biggest month-on-month asking price jump according to the property website Rightmove.
They say prices in the East jumped up by 4.4 per cent. It means the average house here is now selling for over £224,538.
Across England and Wales, London was the only region where asking prices took a dip in April, falling by 0.5%, although at £493,635 on average they are still 6.2% higher than a year ago
Rightmove, whose records go back for more than a decade, tipped next month for a new asking price high, as a combination of confidence returning to the market this spring and a shortage of properties for sale continue their upward pressure on prices.
Miles Shipside, director of Rightmove, said: "With London prices pausing for breath this month but likely to bounce back next, May looks like an odds-on bet to deliver a new asking price record. More estate agents are reporting more activity in more segments of the market."
Potato prices soar
You know the expression cheap as chips.... well we might not be able to say that for very much longer....
Potatoes have been a cheap and cheerful British favourite for more than a century but last year's atrocious weather followed by a severe winter and spring has sent the cost of them soaring as Natalie Gray reports :

House prices "flat"
House prices rose nationally in February according to one analyst - but not in East Anglia.Read the full story ›
House prices remain flat in East Anglia
UK house prices may have seen an increase for the first time in nine months in February - but prices in the Anglia region remained stagnant.
Property analyst Hometrack spoke to more than 1,000 agents and surveyors, some of them reporting that the market conditions were less buoyant than they were expecting. Monthly prices were flat in East Anglia, along with the Midlands.
House prices remain flat in the East
UK house prices may have seen an increase for the first time in nine months in February - but prices in the Anglia region remained stagnant.
Property analyst Hometrack says London saw month-on-month rises of 0.3%, leading to a 0.1% increase across England and Wales.
However monthly prices were flat in East Anglia, the East Midlands. Prices fell in the North East by 0.2%.
House prices in Southend show biggest price rise
Southend in Essex recorded the biggest rise in house prices among major UK towns and cities over the past year, according to research by Halifax.
The average selling price in the seaside resort was 14.8% higher than the previous year, rising to £198,418 by the end of 2012, compared with an improvement of 2.1% on average across the whole of Essex. Lowestoft in Suffolk recorded the sixth largest price rise of 12.7 %
Halifax housing economist Martin Ellis said: "Nationally, conditions in the housing market have been largely unchanged over the past 12 months with little overall movement in either house prices or sales for the second consecutive year. "
He expects continuing broad stability in house prices nationally in 2013, with the North/South divide in price performance likely to persist next year.
Mr Ellis said: "House prices are expected to be strongest in London and the South East as this part of the country performs best in economic terms."

There aren't many sitcoms worth watching on TV, but 'Grounded For
is the exception. A fresh approach, an intelligent look at family
and a wry sense of humor bring 'Grounded' head and shoulders above
other lame competitors in the field.
Are there other original sitcoms out there... yes, if you search long and hard. But this brings together elements that haven't seen the little screen and leave you screaming with laughter.
The buzz is low but good on this one. I encourage everyone to watch it, otherwise another bright, intelligent bit of TV will bite the dust.
Unlike the previous commenter, I think this is one of the funniest shows on TV right now. What the other guy failed to get is the very clever structure of the show. Every episode, it begins with all members of the family having suffered through some event that is only slowly revealed in flashbacks, usually after they try to present a cover story to hide their embarassment. The main couple are frantic performers but seem like they could be together in real life. The brother is the dry wit of the group, who never seems to work but always has a strange scheme cooking. The daughter is the closest to a sitcom stereotype but is still fun to watch. Grandad is reliably disgusted with the whole lot of them. Don't watch a British sitcom. They invariably rely one double-entendre and obvious one-liners. "Grounded For Life" is on it's way to becoming a classic.
This is one of the few shows that i really look forward to. its really
and the characters seem so real. Not only because of how they act but also
the way they look. They look like people not super model types.
The show is so refreshing and it doesn't try to emulate any other show that it just makes me feel happy watching them and their antics.
This show is hilarious. All the characters are funny!! Sean and his brother crack me up. I enjoy the format of the show, which starts at the end and then tells back the story of what happened earlier. I hope it does not get tossed off the network any time soon, but I am sure it won't last for more than a few more seasons.
Granted, there have only been four episodes aired as of today, but it has shown remarkable promise. The writing is sharp, the timing tight and the storylines not so outrageous that they become ridiculous. True, some may say this format has been done before, but if it's done well, so what?
This has got to be one of the funniest shows to come along in a long time. Just when it seemed like there were no more traces of good 80's-esque sitcoms.......here comes another. There are very few good shows on nowadays. This is a great one in an era of too many "reality-shows". Yet this could be some peoples' reality. Don't miss this one! Megyn Price is terrific....what a find!
so this is'nt Malcolm in the middle...it's grounded for life, which is a pretty good show. it is now in it's fourth year on TV and it fills the Friday 8:30 PM slot just fine. i would guess that it won't be everybody's cup of tea, but give it a shot and i'm sure you'll find it quite funny. the actress who plays claudia is played by Megan Pryce, just watching her alone is worth the show, finally TV has a beautiful woman that is not under 106 lbs. for those of us in our 30's who are raising a family, i am sure you will find this program worth the watch. the Finnerty's get my vote for a Friday night viewing! hope you like them as well. WB Friday nights at 8:30PM (as of 10/4/04)
Every time I turn on the TV at 8:30 on Wednesday nights, I laugh hysterically at this very funny show, Grounded for Life. The uncle and Lily are my favorite! They are so funny! The parents are awesome!! I never miss a show! I totally recomend this show to EVERYONE!!!!!
When my husband first saw "Grounded for Life" he said "Well this isnt' going to last .. it's way too good." The writing isn't amazing, but the casting is so good that it makes the show worth waiting for each week. You wouldn't think of Kevin Corrigan as the quintessential slacker brother but he practically makes this show. Not to mention Richard Riehle, who we loved in "Office Space". So enjoy this show while you can.
Just got done watching the 1st episode and I liked it. The mom doesn't have the same presence as Jane K. in Malcolm, but there were plenty of puberty and dysfunctional family jokes to go around. Also, Griffin Frazen (Jimmy) is really cute, he reminds me of a younger Justin Berfield. I give this show a 9 out of 10 stars.

CAMBRIDGE, Ill. — Although some teachers had less than a day to prepare their rooms, Cambridge Elementary School began the academic year as scheduled Tuesday after conquering a serious mold problem.
"It's wonderful," Principal Shelly Logston said.
The school received the go-ahead to have classes at about 7 a.m. Monday, just over 24 hours before classes were set to begin. "You walk into the building and it's cool and it smells nice," she said.
Workers installing a geothermal heating and cooling system in the school discovered the mold problem last month. District officials had noticed the school's roof had been leaking last fall, but could not find any contractors to repair it over the winter. The roof now has been repaired.
Moisture settled in the space between the drop ceiling and the roof, and mold formed during the sweltering temperatures. The district had the mold tested, and it came back as stachybotrys mold, also known as black mold, a particularly toxic form of the substance.
The district awarded a contract to Envirotech of St. Louis to get rid of the mold. Crews worked 24 hours a day, six days a week to clean up the mess.
Air samples had to come back clean in order for classes to be held. The latest samples went out Aug. 13, and Logston said she waited at the fax machine for almost five hours Saturday hoping to find out the results. Finally, on Monday, she got the all clear.
Two rooms for first-grade classes had to be put together in a hurry. The other rooms in the school had been declared safe earlier in the week. Members of the community came in Saturday to help teachers move everything back into those rooms.
"Monday we all worked fast and furious," Logston said.
Christi Reed, a first-grade teacher, said she began to work on her room about 1 p.m. Monday and didn't have it ready for her class until almost midnight.
"It wasn't so bad," Reed said Tuesday. "Today we're having a great first day of school."

'It was a great moment for myself and the team and I look forward to sharing that experience with others on Australia Day,' he said. 'I'm looking forward to getting out there and telling people my story while sharing the Paralympic message.'
Liesl Tesch be Gosford's Australia Day ambassador. The six-time Paralympian was this week named 2013 Gosford Citizen of the Year.
'It was a big surprise,' said Tesch. 'There were so many people who do such great things for the community, it was a real honour.'
London 2012 was Tesch's first Paralympics as a sailor, teaming up with Fitzgibbon just 18 months beforehand.
The pair was at the front of the fleet all week in Weymouth, winning gold with a race to spare. Fitzgibbon and Tesch overcame a tough week off the water to win, with Tesch's mother passing away after a battle with cancer at the end of the first day of Australian Sailing Team

Louis Vuitton's show yesterday was breathtaking! Here's Style.com's Nicole Phelps' review of the collection:
The Fall collections ended today as they began nearly a month ago, with Marc Jacobs in arch provocateur mode, exploring and exploding the meaning of fetishes. In New York, the designer sported a latex T-shirt under his button-down; in Paris at Louis Vuitton, it was a miniature plastic mask of the sort that decorated the models' hats—peaked caps in the manner of Charlotte Rampling in The Night Porter. Backstage, Jacobs explained that the fetish idea came from a conversation with LVMH's Bernard Arnault about women's "inexplicable" (his word, not ours) obsession with bags. "And that got us started thinking about passions, and any of the disciplines that require effort and work and commitment," he said.
Disciplined is one word for this season's LV collection; kink is another, but more on that in a minute. First, the silhouette: If the sculpted jackets, blouses that buttoned up the back, and below-the-knee pencil skirts were a few millimeters more forgiving than the ones at MJ last month, they were bisected by waist-defining belts in shiny cordovan. Pants weren't a focus of this collection, but the ones Jacobs did show had a jodhpur shape—the discipline of dressage. And puff-sleeved, Peter Pan-collared French maid uniforms came tricked out in plasticized lace or decorated with appliqués in the shape of platform pumps, masks, and handcuffs. As for the kink, where to start? There were rubber dominatrix boots (instant hits, those), see-through flasher macs, and let's not forget the lace-ups that exposed a bare expanse of Kate Moss' thighs below retro briefs.
Moss, waving a cigarette and smoking in every sense, was only the super-est of the supes on the polished black runway. Naomi, Amber, and Carolyn all came out for Jacobs. The set was a feat in and of itself, complete with four working lifts and a porter for each, and a staircase on each side. It could've been an expensive hotel, circa the forties, and the girls high-paid escorts.

Do you enjoy Middle Eastern food? If so, it's a sure bet you've had hummus, a popular creamy dip traditionally made from chickpeas (garbanzo beans) pureed with tahini, olive oil, garlic, lemon juice and salt.
Hummus is generally served as an appetizer with extra virgin olive oil and pita bread. It may be topped with paprika, cumin or roasted pine nuts. Some hummus is spicy and some is tangy. You can even make hummus with beans other than chickpeas. Regardless, hummus is very yummy!
The good news is that hummus is simple to make at home and you can play around with your ingredients, creating something nutritious and delicious. You can also buy one of the many varieties we carry and add your personal touch to it.
Although popular as an appetizer or a snack, hummus adds depth and flavor to salads, sandwiches, and main dishes. These are some of my favorite ideas and recipes:
For something different and unusual, these recipes take "hummus" to a whole new level:
Do you make your own hummus? What ingredients do you use? I'd love to know.

The true story of 19th-century astronomer Henrietta Swan Leavitt explores a woman's place in society during a time of immense scientific discoveries. When she begins to work at the Harvard Observatory, she isn't allowed to touch a telescope. Instead, she joins a group of women "computers," charting the stars for a renowned male astronomer. Henrietta Leavitt and her female peers believe in both scientific and social progress, and their dedication changed the way we understand both the Heavens and Earth.

Parties find it hard to lure young voters
In the recent Legislative Council election, all political parties worked hard to win the support of young voters. As competition was keen, and only one or two percentage points often determined success or failure, this most malleable segment of the electorate became a crucial battleground.
Most major parties presented some attractive second-tier candidates; and even when they were not in the top spots, they had more opportunities for media exposure. The internet was fully exploited; YouTube, Facebook, and the like, emerged as significant channels of communication.
The voter turnout rate, however, was almost 11 percentage points lower than in 2004; and there was speculation that the rate among young voters was even more disappointing. With the conspicuous exception of the League of Social Democrats, almost all the major parties seemed to be unsuccessful in their attempts to lure young voters.
The Liberal Party's pro-business platform and the seniority of its principal candidates certainly reduced its attraction to young people. Its second-tier candidates were not given a significant role, either.
The Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong got two young candidates elected: Starry Lee Wai-king and Gary Chan Hak-kan, both in their early 30s. This demonstrated clearly its determination to cultivate a new generation of political stars. But its pro-government stance has limited appeal to young people, who are often anti-establishment. The DAB did attract a lot of young professionals, however. They are eager to establish their business networks on the mainland and expect the DAB to be useful in this area.
The Federation of Trade Unions has a solid grass-roots base, but young people did not identify strongly with it in the election. A few pro-establishment candidates who claimed to be neutral, however, came up with innovative ideas to secure young voters' support; and Regina Ip Lau Suk-yee, Scarlett Pong Oi-lan and Priscilla Leung Mei-fun did well.
Within the pro-democracy camp, the Democratic Party, Civic Party and the Hong Kong Association for Democracy and People's Livelihood (ADPL) were unimpressive in terms of winning young people's votes. The Democratic Party and the ADPL mainly depended on their networks cultivated throughout the years, as well as their district council members. However, they retained considerable attraction among the traditional pro-democracy supporters.
The Civic Party focused on cultivating its second-tier candidates; and presented a few young political stars. Its supporters largely consisted of middle-aged, middle-class people with a tertiary education.
The League of Social Democrats' radicalism proved very attractive to the younger generation; and it enjoyed predominant support among teenage netizens.
Young people in Hong Kong are inclined to support democracy. But their enthusiasm is limited and their commitment is weak. The appeal of democracy, the rule of law and human rights alone are often insufficient to secure their votes.
Radical statements may appear attractive and are likely to win their votes - but it remains very hard to mobilise them to more substantial participation. They want quality of life; in this aspect, probably no political party can give them much satisfaction.
The parties' various electoral platforms did not appeal to them or grab their attention. A small number of 'star' candidates were probably attractive to some young voters, but the sustainability of this attraction is in doubt.
Young voters' political apathy is a severe challenge to the promotion of the democracy cause in Hong Kong. It is an equally tough test for the strengthening of social solidarity and the legitimacy of the government.

The awesome plus points of new-age water tanks
When was the last time you noticed a water tank on the terrace of a building or in a factory?
Okay, do not bother to answer. The point that I want to make here is water tanks have become kind of omnipresent these days. And, they are being built in different colors, shapes, and designs (though black seems to be the most favoured colors of the manufacturers).
Modern day water storage products are much more than simple ones; they do more, and cost less. Here are some of the benefits of insulated water tanks:
Save energy
Insulation layers reduce the heating of water, maintaining a difference of about 25 to 30 degree Celsius. The insulation ensures that lesser energy is utilized for cooling.
Fresh water
Meshed ventilators allow the water to breathe and stay fresh for long. This means you can use the water for longer period.
Reputed manufacturers leverage on the food storage plastic to build normal and rectangular water storage products. The high quality plastic ensures that the water doesn't get contaminated when it comes into contact with the plastic.
Modern day manufacturers incorporate extra ribs on the body to ensure stronger products that do not bulge when they are full of water, or burst under pressure.
The lid design of modern day products incorporates a screw system that ensures an air-tight enclosure. Plus, security rings are provided to put a lock to secure the product from theft, and other unwanted situations.
Modern day manufacturers build a wide range of products to cater to different customer needs, which primarily originate from common households, offices, and industrial units. Many of the manufacturers also built tanks for chemicals; these products happen to be different form the rectangular water tanks and are built in such a way that they can hold the chemicals for long.
Manufacturers, in keeping with the other businesses – have gone digital. They have built their own websites, and showing up their product range there. The interested parties can hunt down the best manufacturers in less than a minute by leveraging on the search-capabilities of Google. One just needs to type a relevant query, like 'best water tanks manufacturers in India', and press the key that says Enter. Numerous websites will flock to the screen of the device and jostle for the attention of the searcher. One can easily check out a couple of websites and get familiar with the top companies in the marketplace and the products on offer.
Water tank manufacturers are leveraging on high end technology and materials to produce stronger and affordable water tanks for households and industrial units. For more on water tank manufacturers and regular/ rectangular water tanks, please read our other articles.

A video has emerged that appears to show members of the Taliban building, then detonating an improvised explosive device (IED) on an American vehicle.
The video was produced by As-Sahab Media and shows various stages of the men actually constructing the device they're about to blow up an armored vehicle with. They're seen adding ball bearings, bolts, and anything else they can find as shrapnel with the bomb, then putting a metal backing on it to direct the blast towards the target.
Near the end of the video American vehicles can be seen driving down what appears to be a remote road. After the first vehicle passes, the second is struck with the powerful explosives that were planted in the street.
There's no word on whether or not anybody was killed, however the force of the explosion seemed great enough to cause serious harm to the vehicle's occupants.
To think, these are the same people that our "fearless" leader Obama negotiated with.

My parents owned a paper shop, until it blew away. – David Brent
The Office S02E05 - Charity
It's Comic Relief Day and the staff of Werhnam Hogg all do their bit to raise money including Dawn, whose 'kisses for 1' stand finally provides Tim with the opportunity he's been waiting for. But when David can only produce a draft of his new gameshow concept in place of an important company report, Neil and Jennifer draw the line and inform him that he is being made redundant.
