5 Reasons to Invite Your Parents to Parents WeekendPublished on Sep 23, 2013
You're starting to settle in and know your way around; Your teachers love you; You are owning it in your studio space and you know all the good places you would go out to eat if you just had a little more cash. What you really need is someone to show off all this newfound insider information to. How about those parents of yours? Parents Weekend is October 18-20 and might just be the perfect time to invite them up to your campus. Need more reasons? Okay.
- They'll get to go on an art walk and see all the cool stuff you're doing. And not just what you're doing now, but what you'll be doing in the future. You'll check out the whole Columbia scene and show them the creative community that you're a part of now.
- They can ask student support services all those questions they've been asking you. There will be representatives from college advising, student health and the portfolio center. Let them ask away and then they can let you be.
- They'll meet your teachers, or at least faculty from your department. Parents can ask questions and hear about what you're doing in your major from the horse's mouth (Sorry, faculty. We didn't mean that literally!)
- They will need to take you out to dinner. Does anyone want to maybe take you to Giordano's, some nice place on Michigan Avenue or some other delicious resto? You know just the spot. And they will love it!
- They'll get to meet the new president and be wined and dined. Brunch at the library, a few hors d'oeuvres and cocktail receptions and a special reception with Dr. Kim, the new Columbia president is all part of the program. Why? Because, we love them as much as you do. Those parents deserve some pampering. So, maybe it's time you invited them up. That would be nice.

Calcutta (The Telegraph): Yuvraj Singh's illness appears to be more grave than disclosed.
According to a source of The Telegraph, who holds a key position in the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), the star all-rounder is currently undergoing "chemotherapy" in the US.
There was, however, no confirmation from the family. Father Yograj, in fact, advised that Yuvraj's illness be kept at a "low key" by the media.
Basically, that it's a personal thing.
It was on November 26 last year that Yuvraj's mother, Shabnam, announced that he had a "non-malignant tumour" in his left lung. Also, that he'd been battling it for months.
Yuvraj was expected to be fit for the T20 Internationals and the tri-series in Australia, but he made himself unavailable in the lead-up to the January 15 selection.
Word then was that Yuvraj had "overdone" things at the National Cricket Academy in Bangalore, where he was on a rehab regimen, obviously keen to quickly make a comeback.
Also Read: Yuvraj to draw inspiration from Armstrong
With the BCCI not revealing details officially, and the family falling silent, one has been left a bit in the dark.
"Am fit physically, but not medically.… Am ruled out for selection," had been Yuvraj's SMS to this newspaper last month.
That something is really amiss came through in the Sahara media release issued this morning.
Among other things, it said: "...Shri Yuvraj Singh, who is truly like one of our family members, is unfortunately passing through a bad phase health-wise, undergoing treatment for a critical illness, overseas.…"
Responding to Sahara's "emotional" decision to withdraw from the IPL and the Team India sponsorship, the BCCI mentioned the following: "...in the light of Yuvraj Singh's unfortunate illness.…"
"Critical", "unfortunate illness.…" It's so alarming.
Yuvraj (Player of the Tournament in the 2011 World Cup) has, of course, been reduced to a "pawn" in Sahara's stunning move on two major fronts.
Sahara owns the Pune Warriors India, the most expensive IPL franchise, and Yuvraj was its captain last year, in its debut season.
With little going right for the Warriors, the franchise finished second-last. Leggie Rahul Sharma, though, made a huge impression and he's now wearing the India colours.

Ever since she lurched to fame as CeCe Jones in the Disney Channel's Shake It Up, Bella Thorne has been worshipped by the showbiz world as a glorious and shining redhead.
And yet, if you didn't know already, she is actually a natural blonde. Perhaps one of the best disguised dyeing redheads in showbiz, Bella has now taken another ginger beauty leap of faith and proved to the world that pink and ginger do match.
The 18-year-old shared a photo on Instagram this week with the caption "Red AND pink bitches!!!" which makes us think that she quite likes her new 'do.
Ditto, Bella. It's a bold move, but someone's got to do it.
Bella's colourist Rona O'Connor also shared a photo of her handiwork, naming the shade "apricot infused with Arctic Rose", taking the latest sunset hair trend to a whole new level.
What do you think of the pink and ginger look?

Ford in Britain: the penalty of indecision
With justifiable pride GM's UK arm trumpeted its success in April: 'Vauxhall storms to the top of the charts!' headlined its news release. In that month it seized 14.9 per cent of the British new-car market, against 13.8 per cent for Ford, the only other company with a double-digit share of UK auto sales. Vauxhall's market share was up from 11.5 per cent in the same month in 2004, while Ford's was down from 15.5 per cent. This was good going for Vauxhall in a month that was down 4.0 per cent from last year's April, writes Karl Ludvigsen.

What Do You Use?
- No Mobile Broadband

- Cable is good, but expensive
The staff at Compare Broadband spend all day, every day, analyzing the retail market for Broadband, shifts in technology, and determining the best value for money across as many providers as possible.

TPG Unlimited Bundle, $59.99
I live in Caulfield, Victoria, a suburb of Melbourne within 10 km of the CBD. Our home is one half of a sub-division. Cable is available in the street, but when the house was being divided, the owner failed to put in two separate taps for cable, for each home. Optus Cable does not run through our street.
Each cable line is designed to support three services without amplification (including Foxtel Pay TV). So Telstra will often refuse to put in Cable services to either division, since this would potentially limit what the other home can get – so no-one gets anything! At some point, this condition had led a previous tenant to have Satellite Foxtel installed. So I was able to argue to BigPond that I should be able to get Cable Broadband, because this would still leave two cable services for the other half of the house available, should they wish to obtain it.
BigPond agreed with that, and left an order open for me to take up if I wanted to. They were very good about it, although I imagine it helped that I spoke their language.
I like to download a LOT of content, and I don't like to worry about how much data I'm using. So I wanted the 500GB plan. Like many urbanites, I've long ago done away with the need for a landline telephone, so to get this plan would cost $130 a month (with no phone bundling discount).
I weighed this up against TPG's Unlimited ADSL2+ Bundle, which was only $60 for unlimited data. I'm 3km from the exchange, meaning a line speed of about 7 Mbps. Cable would give me up to 100 Mbps. But…double the price, two year contract (against TPG's 6 month contract).
I went with TPG, and have been very happy. I've had two line problems in the last year. The first was at the exchange, and fixed within 24 hours. The second was last week, where my speed was erratic and mostly slow. TPG had a Telstra technician out the next morning, and he identified the problem – recent works on my driveway had allowed water to seep into the telecoms pit at the house, shorting out one of the lines. He had it fixed and waterproofed inside 15 minutes. Didn't cost me a thing. And no- no-one at TPG technical support knows that I write for this website.
I can download at a top speed of about 900 kbps, meaning I can get a high-def movie (about 8GB in size) in about 2 and a half hours. Browsing, uploading pictures, streaming high def music and movies all work fine – but often not all at the same time. If I'm downloading a heap of stuff, my wife will let me know pretty quickly. Not in a kind way either.
I use an old Telstra ADSL2+ modem, which was easy to reconfigure to work with TPG. It's connected to an Apple Airport Extreme Router. The modem is also connected to a standard telephone socket.
We have one desktop Mac, 2 iPads, 2 iPhones and a laptop that all connect via Wi-Fi when in range. Everything works pretty smoothly.
Would I change anything?
Not right now, since I'm already on pretty much the cheapest unlimited plan available. We'll need to move soon, and I'll be making sure I'm closer to the exchange in a new place, to get better speeds. I'll then be back on with TPG.
If I can't go with TPG, I'd opt for MyNetFone or Club Telco.
Sam Goudie- Operations Manager/Writer
Telstra $230 T-Bundle Connector Edge
I'm in a share house with 3 other people, in Bentleigh, VIC, about 15km from the Melbourne CBD. We long ago signed on with Telstra BigPond in a massive $230 bundle – this includes 500GB data, unlimited landline (which we don't use) and Foxtel premium package. I would not be able to afford it if it was my own family and I was the only one paying for it, but split up amongst 4 working participants, it's pretty good.
We don't always get the full 100 Mbps, but we rarely get anything below 50 or 60 Mbps. That's crazy good, and we've often exceeded that 500GB limit. All four of us live and breathe on the web; 2 of us are gamers, and all of us like to download anything we can get our hands on.
We use the current generation of BigPond Wi-Fi Cable Modem, which is feeding 1 PC, 3 laptops, 4 tablets, an XBOX 360, a Playstation 3 and 4 smartphones. We also have a T-Hub for the phone which never, ever gets used, for phone OR for entertainment. So that's one place we could be saving money.
We've had the service for nearly two years, and have had only one serious fault where nothing was working. It was a problem affecting the whole network in Victoria, and was resolved within a few hours after we reported it.
Would I change anything?
My girlfriend and I will be getting our own place soon, and if we stay in the inner city we'll probably look at an Unlimited Plan from TPG, Club Telco or Dodo. Probably Club Telco, if only because they don't have any contracts at all.
The BigPond service is very good, but too pricey. And if we removed any of the services we don't use, we'd lose several bundling discounts which usually inflates the price to what you were paying anyway! We'll go for something simpler and cheaper.
Scott Kennedy – Managing Director
Telstra $109 Everyday Connector Bundle
"We moved from Mordialloc, within 25 km of the Melbourne CBD, to Woodend- which is proper rural. The only fixed-line option we had was ADSL2+, though luckily we were within 1000m of the exchange.
We wanted to go with Dodo or Club Telco, or even MyNetFone, because they all offer simple, affordable 'Off-Net' prices (this is when they're using a network to connect you that belongs to someone else. Telstra is the only available wholesaler at our exchange). This would have meant getting the phone connected first with Telstra.
When speaking with Telstra, they offered me a $109 bundle that included 200GB of data (more than enough for my family), unlimited landline calls and even included my mobile plan (which was already with Telstra). I bundled it all up.
So far everything has been good. We don't use the net much for entertainment, but I often work from home and use a VPN (Virtual Private Network), so I'm grateful for the 15 Mbps line speed. We haven't had any outages yet.
We have the BigPond Technicolor Wi-Fi modem, which does the job and looks pretty nice. We have a Macbook and a Windows laptop and 2 smartphones. Down the road we might get Foxtel over-the-web as an add-on, but I need to look into it more. Part of the reason we moved out to the country was to spend more time outdoors!
Would I change anything?
We won't be moving for a long time, so probably not. I might add the Foxtel package for the footy, but beyond that, I'll wait for the NBN before changing anything.
This is a pretty good cross section. You'll notice something: even though no-one in these examples uses a landline, they still didn't opt for Mobile Broadband or Naked DSL. That's because neither of these products offer good value overall. Mobile Broadband is ONLY good if you need the 'mobile' part more than than the 'broadband' part. And the less said about Naked DSL, the better.
So if you want to connect like the Pros, here's a quick conclusion:
Metro area, need lots of data – get a bundled ADSL2+ connection. TPG or Club Telco
Rural, need a decent connection – get bundled ADSL2+ through BigPond, or get a basic landline through Telstra and then get Club Telco or MyNetFone (better for short contracts).

Gary was a biker who turned up in Coronation Street to trade with Jim McDonald for an oil pump for a DT-175X. Jim had recently set up a motorcycle scrap yard in the back of No.11 and advertised in the Gazette. Directed to the Rovers by Percy Sugden due to Liz McDonald working there, Gary and his mates Greg and Terry waited for Jim there. Alec Gilroy was pleased with the extra trade Jim's new business was bringing, but not so impressed with their drinks of choice - two shandys and a half of orange squash, as Gary was on tablets.
A few days later, while once again drinking at the Rovers, Gary offered to buy Mavis Wilton a Tequila sunrise. Taking her usual medium sherry to her table, Mavis told Emily Bishop that she'd been chatted up at the bar, which Emily dismissed as a fanciful tale.
- The part of Gary was a pre-Jesse Chadwick role for actor John Thomson, credited here as "John Patrick Thomson".

- The release of the Bob Woodward book showed Obama disinterested in the give-and-take that is part and parcel of negotiating with Congress.
- The president jetted off to a campaign event in Las Vegas the day after the attacks on our embassy in Cairo and the murder of our ambassador in Libya.
- In an interview with David Letterman, Obama failed to identify the amount of the national debt.
- He dissembled on immigration reform in the Univision townhall, blaming Republicans for his failure when his party controlled Congress for the time period in question (his first year in office); Obama neither introduced such reform legislation nor did he provide a framework within which Congress should work, nor did he press Congress to act.
- In that same townhall, the Democrat "falsely claimed that the [Fast and Furious] program began under President George W. Bush." There has been almost no legacy media followup on the Department of Justice Inspector General's report on the gunrunning scandal, a report which calls into question the managerial competence of Attorney General Holder and reminds us that some in the administration did not cooperate with investigators.
- He descrribed increasing violence in the Middle East, including the murder of our Ambassador to Libya" as "bumps in the road." And that's just one of his "gaffes" in the administration's jumbled response to those attacks.
- When in New York to address the United Nations, he chose to go in the View where he described himself as "eye candy", but failed to meet with world leaders in the Big Apple for the opening of the the world body.

***Can you believe this? The Obama Administration is urging contractors not to warn of layoffs.
The Obama administration has doubled down on its plea to defense contractors not to warn employees about possible layoffs due to looming budget cuts -- going so far as to offer to cover legal fees in compensation challenges.
The move drew a stern rebuke Friday from South Dakota Republican Sen. John Thune, since federal law requires employers to give notice if mass layoffs are likely.
"For the second time, the Obama administration has now encouraged government contractors to ignore the WARN Act and hold off on warning employees about possible layoffs due to the looming sequestration cuts," Thune, lead author of the Sequestration Transparency Act, said Friday.

Burma: Farewell Reception for Chevening Scholars 2013/14
This was published under the 2010 to 2015 Conservative and Liberal Democrat coalition government
British Embassy Rangoon farewells Chevening Scholars 2013/14.
Rangoon, BURMA – The British Embassy Rangoon today organized a farewell reception for four Burmese Chevening Scholars who will be pursuing Masters Degree Programmes at prestigious universities in the United Kingdom over the next 12 months.
The Chevening Scholarship Programme in Burma welcomed applications for graduate-level study in the fields of Human Rights, Political Science and Governance, Economics and Development, Environment, Journalism / Media, Education and Conflict Resolution. The four successful Burmese candidates were awarded places to study at the University of Oxford Brookes, University of Essex, University of Bristol and University of Ulster. The Chevening Scholarship Programme in Burma aims to encourage young professionals and future leaders of the country to develop academically and to bring benefits to Burma on their return.
Mr Andrew Patrick, the British Ambassador designate to Burma said:
We are delighted to support talented Burmese professionals to study at top British Universities. Strengthening skills of Burmese professions who have intellectual and interpersonal qualities for future leadership is crucial for Burma's reform process. Congratulations to our scholars and I wish them every success.
At this event, the British Embassy also celebrated the graduation of scholars from the Chevening Open University programme. The Open University scheme is a distance learning programme designed for young professionals and civil society activists. The scheme was funded by the British Embassy Rangoon's Bilateral Programme Budget, which enabled 39 students to study politics and government and environmental policy.

just curious! I wear none and guys seem to like me more for it(;
if I were to what would be okay in your opinion?
Most Helpful Guy
Iv never liked make up, I just find the idea of a girl having two different appearences a little weird. I mean am not against make up, don't get me wrong but I would prefer it if a girl that wanted to wear make up to have MINIMAL but preferably none at all would be best. I think in general most guys like it when girls don't wear any but I think the idea behind it is that a girl wearing make up means she takes the effort to make herself look good this is most likely what guys like. But if I could personally choose, id rather no make up on a girl at all

I am 23 and have been dating my current boyfriend for 4 years. Lately I've found myself wondering if I missed out on dating other guys. I do love him and I know I would be happily married to him, but sometimes I wish I hadn't met him so soon in life.
Most Helpful Guy
If you love him, then Cherish him. People always go through life, hoping to find the one. If you're with the one, and you don't appreciate him, you might end up losing him. Just be happy if you think you found him, because some people go all their lives looking for the one. You shouldn't need to think the way you are, unless you don't really love him. In my opinion, you are young, and not really sure yet... But if you feel that you love the guy...Don't think differently...
Life is not the amount of breaths you take, it's the moments that take your breath away". You make your own choices.22|00|0

Can't Download Form UploadsAsked by tcawood on January 05, 2016 at 04:47 AM
I am having trouble with one of my forms the "Guide application form" I've been using this succesfully for over 7 months however for some reason today I can't open files. When the form is completed it emails a colleague with an overview and a link to the files that people attach this is the link that appears to be broken, whenever we attempt to open the files the connection times out.
Is there an ongoing issue at the moment?
Kind Regards
JotForm Support
Thank you for contacting us.
I have checked some of the most recent download links related to the "Guide application form" and they worked fine here.
Could you please confirm if the issue is fixed on your side too?

Colourful business identity Jim Byrnes has alleged he saw a CFMEU official receive a $3000 wad of cash from a construction industry bagman.
Mr Byrnes told Fairfax Media in March that he would give evidence to the royal commission on union corruption about alleged bribery of the construction union.
He said he would identify at least four senior serving or former CFMEU organisers who have allegedly been bribed by builders, including from companies associated with underworld figure George Alex.
The royal commission has heard Mr Alex's companies allegedly made a weekly "union payment" of $2500 to the CFMEU.
Mr Byrnes told the ABC's 7.30 that he saw Mr Alex give an envelope containing what he believed to be $3000 to a union official.
"I saw George Alex throw a white envelope, slightly unwrapped, with $3000 in it, because it had $3000 written on it, and I saw the guy have a look at it," he said.
"To be honest, he didn't say 'here's a kickback' or 'here's a bribe – we're looking after you', but he threw the guy some cash."
Mr Byrnes said he has been co-operating with senior investigators with the royal commission and was preparing a sworn statement which will be tendered as evidence.
He told Fairfax Media that the CFMEU had allowed Mr Alex to avoid the usual auditing to ensure workers were paid their full entitlements. After former union official Brian Fitzpatrick alleged he received a death threat from a former colleague after Mr Fitzpatrick blew the whistle on the union's dealings with Mr Alex, the union recovered hundreds of thousands of dollars in outstanding entitlements.
The CFMEU has denied Mr Byrnes's allegations, saying: "Jim Byrnes is a convicted criminal who has previously been struck off as a director of a company. Any statements by him should be carefully weighed."

Words misspelled Yellow is not spelled right!

My daughter was entertained enough to learn lots of words but I had to sit down and help her do so because there is no voice that actually says what everything is. She can scroll through the pictures and tell me what they are on her own now.
Jackee Strickler
Do better If it had voice I would keep it and give it 4 stars.

Where's the sound? The pictures are great but instead of a cute glitter sound maybe a useful teaching voice saying the words would be better.......

Great app. Covers several areas. Only downfall is,it doesn't "say/speak" what the objects are. So my child can't enjoy on her own like other talking apps.
Dhruv Patel
Cool and classic
Craig Ogden
Stuck I ended up getting stuck at the share popup. Wouldn't go back. Kids are using this app. Since they are just learning their alphabet they dont know how to read, so they dont know what they are clicking on.

File upload max file size change in toolbar creates a new file upload field and leaves old max file size valueAsked by adamdchrc on March 09, 2016 at 01:02 PM
I have recently upgraded to Bronze from Free account, and have a live form up that will not accept a saved increase in max file upload size.
This is the form: https://form.jotform.com/60195693911158
Process already attempted:
1. click File Upload from Form Tools menu
2. click Max File Size from toolbar
3. input 20000 and click okay
4. click save
5. test via preview and live form
6. consistently get error message: "file size cannot be bigger than 1024kb"
I need the form to accept adjustments to max file upload size as soon as possible as I am getting complaints from form users on this end.
Thank you.
Learned through repeated experimentation that adjusting Max File Size from Tool Bar creates a new file upload button, rather than changes the Max File Size for the existing button(s). Rather, Max File Size needs to be adjusted through Edit Properties accessed by right clicking the element.
Good to know. I do not believe that this info is part of the general solution documentation.
As of now, this is resolved on my end.
Thank you for the update and I am glad that it is working for you at this time. I do want to mention that actually both toolbar and the Properties of a field should work just the same.
If you check either one both should show the same values no matter where the change was made.
Now I have tried to recreate the same, but was not able to do so. Please do let us know if the same keeps happening for you as well as the browser that you are using when you recreate the same issue.
For example I have checked within my FireFox and it is working properly.

Wed 19th Mar 2014 8:00amConstantinesurf's Harlyn Surf Report
Surf conditions at 7.05 a.m. on Wednesday 19th March 2014: Given that it is pretty much full high tide right now, it is pretty good! A couple to three feet of lazy looking but quite peeling (for Harlyn!) surf is rolling ashore, a fun looking and quite smooth three feet, those rights spinning off the Rock and tempting. Yeah, they are a bit fat but that's just the tide, it'll firm up a bit on the drop. The wind is fairly light and offshore and it's all looking promising. The size might drop a little with the tide but it shouldn't be by too much, that swell is strengthening as the day goes on and should compensate for the tidal pull. This afternoon could be a good three feet and decent shape! Rhy (Barfield) is back from an Aus trip and here's what he got up to over there: vimeo.com/89278068 Rhys is off to Ecuador at the end of the month for the ISA World Junior Championships and the groms are desperately trying to raise the funds necessary to get them there without bankrupting their mums and dads. Since the mega surf companies aren't yet embarrassed enough to provide any support for the U.K. Groms, it's down to everyone else to do it! So go to www.crowdfunder.co.uk/support-teamgb and pay a little back to the kids!! We are looking to build our new shop team for 2014! Over the last 20 something years we have been more than lucky to share our working days surrounded by great people, a great team of keen and knowledgeable crew in the shop, great customers returning time after time, and great suppliers of the very best products available. It's a small shop, our happy little store, one full of all those little bits 'n bobs that help to improve the surfing experience for all us, plus all that other stuff that we sometimes just want! So it's a tight and confined space, filled with lots of things that need to sometimes be explained, sized, fitted or advised upon. And so it is important that when we do recruit, we recruit the right people. The best, most knowledgeable, most helpful and most enthusiastic that we can find (or that find us!)! There's no strict criteria to match, enthusiasm and passion are as important to us as a natural ability to be friendly and polite to customers. You will need to be a source of advice and information, able to keep the shop tight and organised, the products displayed to their best, a proactive type, unable to walk past a disorganised display without smartening it up, constantly thinking of ways to improve it all, to make it wonderful. An attention to detail and an eye for beauty combined with a natural fondness for people. Responsibilities will include the handling and processing of payments, opening and closing the shop, reconciliation of tills and all the serious stuff as well as making sure that the groms are behaving and having a good time. Initiative and self motivation along with a genuine interest are important, as well as a natural sense of inquiry. So, if you are full of energy, have some experience within retail, have a love for all things surfy, are happy to hug the people you work with and feel that you can bring that special something to our little store then email email@example.com and tell me! WWW.CONSTANTINESURF.COM is the place to go for our early bird SURF REPORT for Constantine Bay and Harlyn Bay as well as the surf forecast for tomorrow and the week ahead!
