Canada mustered $5-billion in G8 pledges to tackle maternal and child health in poor countries, but uneven contributions from deficit-laden members cast questions over the rich club's future ability to act decisively on aid.
The initiative, bolstered by another $2.3-billion in contributions from six non-G8 countries and the Gates Foundation, allowed Prime Minister Stephen Harper to claim a victory in efforts to reduce mortality in the developing world - far short of the needs, but enough to argue he advanced the cause.
But Canada, the smallest G8 country by population, ponied up a fifth of the pledge - $1.1-billion in new funds over five years - while others, struck by economic woes and high deficits, offered up more modest sums - in some cases making firm commitments for only a few years.

"Some countries pledged relatively more than others, at least relative to the size of their economies," Mr. Harper said as he unveiled the scope of the so-called Muskoka Initiative. "Obviously the differences in pledges have to do with differences in priorities, but also differences in financial situations."
Behind the scenes, that showed: Britain offered a big annual contribution, about $300-million a year, but was only willing to make a firm commitment to the G8 for two years, not five, according to sources. The United States said it would commit $1.3-billion (U.S.) over two years - but didn't commit to five years of funding either.
Others, compared with the size of their economies, offered less. Canadian officials refused to provide details of each country's contribution, but sources provided a rough breakdown: Germany contributed more than half a billion U.S. dollars, Japan about $500-million, France about $400-million, and Italy, less.

Aid groups, however, insisted it would not meet the needs, and while some applauded Canada's contribution, they said Mr. Harper had failed to wring comparable amounts out of other countries.
"It falls quite short of the global amount really needed to make a dent in this problem," said Mark Entwistle, G8 spokesman for the international aid group One.
"Mr. Harper deserves kudos for putting it on the agenda. The G8 as a whole didn't really step up."
Mr. Harper, however, declared a victory, saying the pledges showed the G8 still has the power to take action on humanitarian causes. Canadians, he said, will support the cost of efforts that will have an real impact on saving lives.
"As long as people can see their money being used on things that are important, that really change the lives of people, money that is used effectively, people will support that."
Canada's $1.1-billion in extra money over five years comes on top of the $1.75-billion in existing funding it already spent to fund maternal and child health programs. It will take up the lion's share of Canada's new aid in future years, as overall annual aid spending is frozen at $5-billion next year.
Canadian officials did not detail where the new money will be spent, but the government said it would be aimed at improving care for pregnancy and child delivery, on nutrition for mothers and young children, and addressing the leading killers of young children - presumably through items such as vaccines.
Canada's child and maternal-health funding will be targeted to sub-Saharan Africa. The money will be focused on a "limited number of high-risk countries such as Haiti, Afghanistan, Mali, Tanzania and Mozambique," Mr. Harper's office said in a statement.
The G8, however, already suffers from a lack of credibility because of its failure to meet its aid pledges of the past. Only half of the pledge that G8 leaders made in 2005, to double aid to Africa, by this year was ever delivered.
"I think it is frustrating that world leaders sign up to things and then don't deliver them and we have to make sure that happens," British Prime Minister David Cameron told reporters.
Mr. Harper insisted this time that G8 leaders knew there must be a new era of accountability, and were cautious about making pledges. Even so, the less-ambitious pledges of some nations raised other questions about whether the cash-strapped "rich" nations can still act cohesively on aid.
Traditionally generous aid donors such as Germany and France were reticent, facing high deficits; the United States worried about big pledges in a tough economy.
Non-G8 countries were brought in to bolster the pledge: Norway, Holland, and New Zealand joined talks, but late pledges came from South Korea, Spain and Switzerland. The Gates foundation had previously announced $1.5-billion in funds.
It was still, according to Dave Toycen, president of development charity World Vision Canada, a mustering of funds that didn't meet the ambition. "Overall, the Muskoka Initiative looks more like a small down payment than an adequate investment, and won't reach as far as it must to stop needless early deaths."

Age: Not telling (mid 30s)
Profession: Financial adviser
College major: Business
Study Method
Hector mostly studied using the CD-Rom. In doing so, he went over the chapters and then took a final test. He also took all of the practice exams and thinks that in total, he studied for roughly 20 hours.
Exam Question Recall
State rules, uniformity laws (Blue Sky Laws)
What would be insider trading?
Insider trading is the use of nonpublic information for the direct benefit of trading. Insiders who use nonpublic information as the basis for personal gain are in violation of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. What's more, the 1988 Insider Trading and Securities Enforcement Act mandates that a person convicted of insider trading can face up to 10 years in jail, be fined $1 million dollars or up to 300% of profits gained (or losses avoided).
What would be a mistake (fraudulent act), and how to take care of the problem?
If an agent finds that he/she has violated the USA, that agent can attempt to rescind a sale.
What is the difference between an agent and broker-dealer?
Directly from the act, the definition is:
"broker-dealer" means a person engaged in the business of effecting transactions in securities for the account of others or for the person's own account. The term does not include:
- An agent;
- An issuer;
A bank or savings institution if its activities as a broker-dealer are limited to those specified as:
- Banking institution organized under the laws of the United States
- A savings institution, trust company, credit union or a depository institution.
- Those registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or not required to register because of such.
- An international banking institution; or
A person excluded by rule adopted or order issued under the USA
The USA specifically defines a sales representative (agent) as:
"An individual, other than a broker-dealer, who represents a broker-dealer in effecting or attempting to effect purchases or sales of securities, or
- Represents an issuer in effecting or attempting to effect purchases or sales of the issuer's securities."
- "An individual, other than a broker-dealer, who represents a broker-dealer in effecting or attempting to effect purchases or sales of securities, or
- Broker-dealer:
Final Words of Advice
Use the CD, if there is one, or take as many of the practice exams as possible! According to Hector, the practice exams were harder than the actual exam and definitely helped him pass. Hector recommends that you study to the point where you are getting 90% correct on the practice exams.
Know your stuff - it is easier to fail than most people think.
Author's Comments: Hector's experience is probably typical of the average person's Series 63 exam. While he studied well for the exam, he barely skated by. Though many would say he studied "just enough, but not too much", it is also important to note that a few bad answers could have been the difference between him passing and failing. Thus, if you identify with this interview, it is probably a good idea to study even more, just to make sure that one tough question does not return a failing score, instead of a 72

LA PLATA, Md. Maryland community pharmacy owners are asking U.S. House majority leader Steny Hoyer to bring H.R. 3140—Saving Our Community Pharmacies Act of 2007—to the House floor for a vote.
The bill would help community pharmacists with the new reimbursement practices that Medicaid will put into effect in 2008 for generic drugs. In 2005, the Deficit Reduction Act cut Medicaid pharmacy services by more than $8 billion, causing the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to create new rules for Medicaid generic reimbursement based on an average manufacturer price formula. A December 2006 Government Accountability Office report found that, on average, pharmacies would be paid 36 percent below their acquisition costs using this new formula, therefore forcing patients to seek services from expensive emergency rooms and doctors' offices.
"Who can stay in business at 36 percent below cost?" said Howard Schiff, executive director of the Maryland Pharmacists Association. "AMP does not properly measure retail acquisition costs; it includes sales prices that are unavailable to community pharmacies like County Drug here in La Plata. In Maryland there are 332 community pharmacies that ably provide patients with quality services—services that are not often found in large chain and mail-order pharmacies."

[efoods]Salvatore Calvanese, the treasurer of Springfield, Massachusetts, for four years, had a ready defense for why he risked $14 million of taxpayer money on collateralized-debt obligations laden with subprime mortgages in 2007.
He didn't know what he was buying, he says, and trusted the financial professionals who sold them and told him they were safe.
"I thought they were money markets that were just paying more," Calvanese said in an interview. "Nobody ever used the term 'CDO,' and I am not sure I would have known what that was anyway."
Such financial mistakes, often enabled by public officials' lack of disclosure and accountability for almost 90 percent of government financings in the $2.8 trillion municipal bond market, are costing U.S. taxpayers as much as $6 billion a year, according to data compiled by Bloomberg in more than a dozen states.

Noticed in one of the games I was trying, Serious Sam 3, that the Right Stick click is seen as the left stick click, and Back is seen as Left stick click. The same thing happens in Trine 2 as well.
[edit] Trine 2 is no longer doing this (start and back work fine now, strange)

Uncle and his nephew charged in Chesterville break-in foiled by teenage girl
AUGUSTA, Maine (AP) � Police have arrested an uncle and a nephew they allege were involved in a burglary at a Chesterville home foiled by a teenage girl hiding in her room.
James Dingus and his nephew, Stephen Dingus, both 31, were arrested Thursday near their Augusta apartment.
Police say the pair may be responsible for a series of burglaries in Franklin and Lincoln counties.
Police say the 17-year-old girl was home alone Monday when someone forced their way into the home.
The girl hid in her bedroom until the suspect opened the door, and fled upon seeing her. Nothing was taken.
Police praised the girl for having the presence of mind to call 911 with a detailed description of the suspects and their vehicle.
It was not known if they had lawyers.

Another eptoanaxiln for the recent uptick in IE8 usage: most of the publicity being given to Chrome also mentions IE8 somewhere in it.

I ttserud PayPal once several years ago and that is the last time I have ever dealt with them. Now if I meet a merchant who uses PayPal, I will find another way to settle the finances or simply not deal with the merchant at all and will shop elsewhere to find a merchant that is less limiting. Why? Several years ago before Spam was the problem it is now, I used PayPal to purchase attendance to a technical class (1 time) and shortly after that, I began receiving spam at that email address. I had a strict policy about spam and which email addresses I used (even back then) but thought I had good reasons for breaking from that policy just this one time. And PayPal obviously thought nothing of it and distributed my email address thus violating my trust of them as a vendor. There was no other possible source for the leak of information. I will not use them.

Intention never matters in cases like this pceirpteon of intention does. At least to the public at large. I would wager most of the folks angry over this would agree with the Bad Faith scenario, even though the intent of M-G may never have been that. They're going to need to work on changing that pceirpteon if they want to smooth things over with that crowd. How? Your guess is as good as mine As for collecting e-mails to vote, we'll have to agree to disagree In my experience, the more careful and serious you make the vote process the more weight people will assume it has in the end. I don't see CNN or ESPN asking for e-mail addresses for their throwaway polls, which if you think about it are just popularity votes for a small pool of candidates . Those are when folks are just cheering from the sidelines As for Leo, I'm not sure how impactful he really was here at the beginning. Martin got 6K votes, which was 4x the next person. But, when you consider Leo's number of followers, it's not that much. I'd say Martin's own followers were the voters here. I do agree that Leo (and Kevin Rose) added some gas to the fire once they alerted their followers to what had happened with the top 50, though
Agree, Taylor. I run an OB ER. 8 of 10 patients I see come in for 1) nomral pregnancy discomforts, 2) drug seeking or 3) things that could easily be handled in their prenatal clinic for $50 instead of $2000 if only they could be bothered to go to their prenatal clinic. We are so clogged up with people who don't need emergency services, it sometimes interferes with our ability to care for people who do.

We never see them and they're probably happier than those we see all the time
Invisibles: The Power of Anonymous Work in an Age of Relentless Self-Promotion
By David Zweig
Portfolio Hardcover
256 pages, $27.95
By Emily Joy Sullivan
Obsession with fame has been par for the human course for quite some time. Yet in the modern era, we now also have the cult of pseudo-celebrity. Thanks to the public forum of the Internet, one can have millions of YouTube views overnight simply by being captured on film doing something, well, stupid. Even those of us who don't reach such heights of notoriety have an unprecedented degree of exposure and access to one another. We inhabit a realm of tags, views, and "likes" bestowed willy-nilly on the most inconsequential details of daily life. All this, in addition to a culture that prizes competition and hierarchy, makes for a not-so-subtle imperative to rise to the top – if not of actual skill or contribution, then at least of popularity. In "Invisibles: The Power of Anonymous Work in an Age of Relentless Self-Promotion," David Zweig chooses to explore something different. He interviews and shadows members of an unexpected elite, a set of individuals whose values and actions are "near antithetical" to those of mainstream culture. These "Invisibles" are experts in their fields and have access to elite realms, yet are not renowned or even recognized in the public eye.
Zweig's subjects are not front-men or spotlight-hoggers. They are piano tuners, not pianists; UN interpreters, not politicians; lead engineers, not lead architects. They walk the same stages as Radiohead and the same movie sets as big-name directors, yet they are not themselves famous.
Zweig makes no bones about his intention to uphold these individuals as an example for his readers. However, he is not moralistic; he is simply interested in Invisibles because they seem to hold some answers to the pursuit of happiness. He asks, "What exactly are they doing, and how are they living that brings them such attainment at the office and internal satisfaction?" Zweig identifies three fundamental traits that characterize Invisibles, and he begins his book by exploring each through the lens of one individual. The first and most unusual trait is "ambivalence to recognition": Invisibles do not do their work in order to receive praise. Some even expressly dislike attention. Invisibles do their work out of intrinsic motivation, from a love of the work itself, and not for extrinsic reward.
Zweig also identifies Invisibles' "devotion to meticulousness." From a perfumer who keeps impeccable records of the dozens of notes in each formula among hundreds of attempts, to a cinematographer who reshoots a scene to perfect one seemingly inconspicuous spot on a set piece, Invisibles' fastidiousness stands in stark contrast to our cultures' predominant values of instant gratification.
Zweig's third main focus is the "savoring of responsibility." Invisibles relish responsibility itself, rather than the praise it bestows. Dennis Poon, lead structural engineer for one of the tallest buildings in the world, provides a strong example. In his case, many lives hang in the balance, dependent on the integrity of his work.
"Invisibles" sometimes moves slowly during these early chapters, as Zweig tends to get bogged down in the details. Though Zweig claims that "the brazen lure of Invisibles is their stories," it is the intricacies of the individuals' work itself that sidetracks him.
For example, in the chapter exploring "ambivalence to recognition," Zweig spends several pages describing the facts of the field of wayfinding (spatial problem-solving and planning), as he tells the "story" of Harding, a principal wayfinder for the world's busiest airport, Hartfield-Jackson in Atlanta. Zweig veers into different elements and nuances of wayfinding, and this reader felt off-track and unfocused.
To be sure, these extensive details speak to the characteristic of fastidiousness. However, Zweig goes farther than necessary – especially in a chapter ostensibly meant to focus on a different trait.
Zweig's later sections are some of the most relevant and interesting, as they expand beyond the core traits to explore other commonalities and place the Invisibles in a broader context. Chapters such as "Fame, Success, and the Myth of Self-Promotion" show that the Invisibles' values are increasingly unpopular and uncommon in mainstream culture, despite the fact that our predominant values aren't actually making us happy.
Zweig also incorporates others' research. Most notably, he references Mihály Csíkszentmihályi's famous theory of "flow," or a mental state of complete engrossment in one's activity, in which all else falls away.
Flow is a state that Csíkszentmihályi and Zweig have found to be a hallmark of people who are fulfilled in their work. This is one of Zweig's strongest sections, as it places his arguments in a documented context and zeroes in on what makes the Invisibles' traits so effective, and instructive for the reader. Indeed, Zweig himself gains insight on his own happiness through his research. In an apt keystone for the end of the book, he reflects on the process of getting a book deal: the initial thrill and validation of the offer; the opportunities for praise when he shares the news with acquaintances; the quick thrill and swift fade of the accolades.
But ultimately, Zweig only feels deep, lasting satisfaction once he becomes immersed in the process of writing itself. The ego-boost of telling everyone he has a book deal simply doesn't cut it: it is ambivalence to recognition and devotion to meticulousness that bring him fulfillment.
Such a moment of self-reflection and coming-full-circle is rare, and lovely. Though Zweig's experience and opinions appear throughout the book, making for welcomingly personal, accessible, and informal non-fiction, this the most enriching personal connection he makes.
Despite some shortcomings, "Invisibles" is an interesting and important book. It takes us a step closer to understanding how we can be happier and lead more meaningful lives. We can all benefit from the examples of Invisibles: people who have devoted themselves to meaningful work they love for its own sake, and not because it will let them see their name in lights—or bring in more "likes."

Benedict Cumberbatch's Toronto invasion has begun. The Sherlock star has three movies playing at the on-going international film festival, and while the folks at the event are still waiting for the screenings of Steve McQueen's 12 Years A Slave and John Wells' August: Osage County, last night saw the premiere screening of Bill Condon's
Scripted by writer Josh Singer, whose previous credits include episodes of shows like Fringe, Lie To Me and The West Wing, The Fifth Estate tells the story of how Assange teamed up with colleague Daniel Domscheit-Berg (Daniel Bruhl) to release confidential documents featuring information that the two men believed it was the right of the people to know. As the two make bigger and bigger waves in the world of global politics, however, their actions begin to weigh on their relationship, and as you can see in the clip that results in plenty of interpersonal drama.
The film has gotten some mixed reactions following its premiere last night, and our own critic, Sean O'Connell was one of those who wasn't too impressed by what the movie had to offer. In his review, he wrote, "Convoluted and a bit too slick for its subject matter, The Fifth Estate raises too many interesting questions about online journalism and the accomplishments of Assange to fully dismiss it." In addition to his editorial, you can watch Sean discuss the film in the video blog below:
The Fifth Estate, which also features Anthony Mackie, Stanley Tucci, Alicia Vikander, Peter Capaldi, David Thewlis and Laura Linney, will be in theaters everywhere on October 18th.
Cumberbatch's second TIFF entry, 12 Years A Slave, is having its Toronto premiere tonight, and while the actor has a much smaller role in that film than he does in The Fifth Estate, it is already riding high on festival buzz following its showing at Telluride last week.

When Christina Finney walked to the patrol car in handcuffs, her neighbors thought they had witnessed a miracle.
"We were stunned," said Joyce Patrice, who watched the scene unfold from her home on Tuna Place in unincorporated Boca Raton. "We thought she was handicapped."
Before deputies charged her with child neglect on Saturday, Finney had spent most of her time in wheelchair. She made news in 2005 as a paraplegic who couldn't find proper housing after the City of Boynton Beach condemned her hurricane-damaged home.
But the story of how she landed in a wheelchair was never clear. Now, after her neighbors say it appeared she could walk just fine, Finney's handicap has become even more of a mystery.
To some, she claimed it was an injury she suffered in 2000. To others, like her next door neighbor Patty Clutter, she said she lost her ability to walk in the Vietnam War.
"It's just amazing," Clutter said. "It's just amazing to me that you could be living next to someone you don't know anything about."
Deputies showed up at Finney's home Saturday just before 6 p.m., according to a Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office report.
Witnesses told detectives Finney had smashed the windows of Clutter's house and car. She screamed about ghosts and accused Clutter of hacking into her computer and taking nude photos of her.

AMD Duron 800 MHz Review
Q3A and Content Creation
This content was originally featured on Amdmb.com and has been converted to PC Perspective's website. Some color changes and flaws may appear.
The Duron running at 800 MHz shows a great ability to pump out the frames in Quake III: Arena. Overclocked 200 MHz to 1 GHz it increases by about 20 frames/per second or a 14% increase. Right between them lies the Athlon Thunderbird 800 MHz processor, coming in at about 6% faster than the Duron.
A similar scenario here. The 800 MHz Duron comes in a 40.1 Winstone points with the 1 GHz version at 47.8. This is a 16% increase in computing, and the Athlon at 43.6 offers an 8% increase over the Duron of the same speed.

Preseason State Rankings:
Article Continues Below
Pick a State
New Jersey
As LSU continues to stockpile another monster recruiting class, there is a national flavor to the 2009 group. The Tigers have commitments from prospects in Florida, Georgia, Texas and Mississippi. As always though, LSU is right in the mix with some of the best prospects in its backyard - which also means that it is in the mix with some of the best prospects in the nation.
The Preseason Louisiana Top 40 is headed by the nation's top wide receiver prospect, five-star standout Rueben Randle. At 6-foot-3, the Bastrop, La., native is so athletic he makes almost every play look routine. He is in the Larry Fitzgerald mold - good frame, great hands, deceptive speed and beautiful route-running.
Don't forget how good Randle is as a wide receiver, because after his senior season there will be plenty of people that will be calling him the best quarterback prospect in the state. Because of the departure of Bastrop signal-caller Randall Mackey, Randle will be moving under center - further illustrating his unique athleticism - for his senior season.
Following Randle at the top of the Louisiana list is another five-star prospect, defensive tackle Chris Davenport, who is hearing from every major program in the country. LSU sits in the driver's seat for Davenport's services. If he ends up in Purple and Gold, LSU's strong defensive line tradition is sure to continue.
Davenport is an athletic defensive lineman with limitless potential. At 6 feet 3 and 315 pounds, Davenport runs like a linebacker and overpowers smaller offensive linemen.
Another prospect with a high ceiling is West Monroe's Barkevious Mingo. The slender linebacker is still relatively new to the game and comes in at No. 5 in the state due to his great frame, elite athleticism and outstanding upside as a pass-rusher on the next level.
The top rated offensive lineman in the state is LSU commit Chris Faulk, a massive 6-foot-6, 280-pounder that has the frame to be a dominant tackle in the SEC. Faulk is ranked as the No. 8 player in the state, and is followed shortly thereafter by a much smaller offensive lineman in Patrick Lewis at No. 12.
At just under 6 feet 2, Lewis has some height restrictions. However, his run-blocking ability and athleticism - as well as his ability to snap the ball - make him a great prospect at guard or center at the college level.
Coming in at Nos. 14 and 16, respectively, are teammates of the top-ranked Randle. DeQuinta Jones and Josh Downs lead the defensive line for Bastrop. Downs will be heading to LSU to play in college, while Jones has seen his offer list swell to include schools such as Alabama, California, Michigan and Arkansas - among others.
While the top of the list is very strong with five-stars and four-stars to spare, the depth in the state is outstanding. There are several players whose stock may just now be starting to rise.
Kendrick Washington from Shreveport Huntington is an intriguing prospect as a basketball standout, but he has some great football upside. He lands at the No. 18 spot on the list, two spots ahead of Metarie Rummel safety Jarvis Walker. A Kentucky commit, Walker is one of the hardest hitters in the state. He could be a star either as a safety or a linebacker in college.
There is speed in the latter half of the list as well, with Mamou running back Robert Walker debuting at No. 32. At only 5 feet 7, Walker has a great burst and acceleration out of the backfield and has been incredibly productive in his high school career. Two spots ahead of him at No. 30 is E.J. Celestie, an all-purpose player who could be a real steal for Texas Tech.
No. 35 is D.J. Banks, who spent 2007 as the backup quarterback for West Monroe while filling in at kick returner and in the slot on offense. He is projected as a defensive back at the next level, and he made the most of his opportunity to showcase his skills at the Nike Camp this spring. Banks took home Defensive Back MVP honors at the Baton Rouge event. His athleticism will be on display again this fall as the starting quarterback for West Monroe.
A list of only 40 fails to mention some of the top prospects in a deep state for talent. However, as the fall season approaches, there will be ample opportunity to see new names emerge throughout the season.

Child benefit cuts are fair insists PM David Cameron
DAVID Cameron was yesterday forced to defend child benefit cuts, insisting the controversial reforms were "fundamentally fair".
Pollsters and experts have warned against the "incompetent" changes, which came into effect at midnight.
Mr Cameron accepted that a wage of £60,000, the cut-off point at which parents lose all child benefit, did not make someone "rich".
But the Prime Minister said it was right to ask those people to help tackle the national deficit.
This will raise £2billion a year. If we don't raise that £2billion from that group of people, the better off 15 per cent, we would have to find someone else to take it from
Speaking on the Andrew Marr Show on BBC1, he said: "This will raise £2billion a year. If we don't raise that £2billion from that group of people, the better off 15 per cent, we would have to find someone else to take it from.
"I think people see it as fundamentally fair that if there is someone in the household earning over £60,000 you don't get child benefit."
Families will lose one per cent of child benefit – paid at £20.30 a week for a first child and £13.40 for each subsequent child – for every £100 the top earner receives over £50,000. At £60,000 all benefit will be lost.
An estimated 1.2 million households will lose an average of £1,300 a year, according to the Institute of Fiscal Studies. Families were given until last night to tell HMRC to stop paying the benefit.
Those that have not will have to fill in self-assessment tax forms and have the cash clawed back through PAYE.
Prof Philip Booth, of the Institute of Economic Affairs, accused the Government of "family-bashing" and said it was "direct discrimination against couple families, especially single-earner couple families".
He said: "It is probably the single most incompetent change to the benefit system since the Second World War." Conservative MP and former minister Christopher Chope opposed the cuts.
He said: "It is sending out a message to families which is totally contrary to what the Prime Minister said originally, that he would support and promote them."
A poll by Survation found 71 per cent of people backed the child benefit changes.
But 45 per cent did not understand them and 78 per cent said it was unfair to penalise single-earner homes where one partner cared for the children but not homes with two workers on £49,000.
Conservative Party chairman Grant Shapps said he was "one of the people affected" by the cuts, while Chancellor George Osborne revealed he and his wife had already stopped claiming child benefit.
He attacked Labour plans to oppose a one per cent cap on rises in tax credits and most working age benefits for the next two years.
Mr Osborne said welfare savings for 2015-16 will amount to £83billion – nearly £5,000 for every working household.
But Shadow Chancellor Ed Balls called the child benefit cuts a "complete shambles" and said Labour would back a flexible cap on total household benefits, with a higher London rate.

Colonoscopy Prank May Sound Like a Crappy Idea, But It's Actually Pretty Funny [VIDEO]
About a week ago Tony found a Jack Vale video about an a-hole pretending to be homeless to make some quick cash. This time he's literally pranking people's a-holes. You may remember a similar prank from the first Jackass movie where Ryan Dunn shoves a toy car up his butt; which they pay tribute to in this video. What's most interesting about this clip is the array of reactions from the people, which go from the nervous lady who exclaims "Those aren't even my keys!", to the guy who seem very nonchalant and not worried about his doctor finding a toy car crammed in crapper cavity.

THE Ateneo De Manila University needed two overtimes, but had enough gas left to beat defending champion National University Bulldogs, 74-70, in the University Athletic Association of the Philippines Season 78 men's basketball tournament at the Smart Araneta Coliseum on Wednesday.
Kiefer Ravena forced two overtimes and then relied on Chibueze Ikeh, who dominated the boards and scored six marginal free throws to power Ateneo to the scrambling victory.
Ravena split two charities, then scored the final points on a breakaway layup to finalize the count.
Gelo Alolino broke down the Ateneo defense to score on a layup to grab back the lead for NU, 61-60, with 55 seconds to play in overtime.
Ateneo could not score and Ralph Tansingco drilled a free throw to push NU ahead by two, 62-60.
Ravena then drove inside to tie the game at 62-all with just 5.7 seconds left to play to force the second overtime.
The Bulldogs seemed headed to victory late in the fourth period after Kyle Neypes hit a triple, followed by an outside shot by Alolino, which pushed NU to a six-point, 54-48, lead with 3:10 to go in the game.
But Ravena just would not give up. He scored back-to-back baskets, the second when he recovered his own miss then drove in to score his 10th point to cut the gap to just three points, 55-52, for NU.
Jerie Pingoy then converted two free throws to peg the count, 55-54, for NU.
The Ateneo Blue Eagles, with the option to foul the worst free throw shooter of the Bulldogs, fouled NU's best free throw shooter Alolino instead. Alolino drilled both free throws to hike the NU lead to three points, 57-54, with just 16.7 seconds to play.
Ateneo's Von Pessumal couldn't inbound and was called for a five second violation. But Alolino lost control of the ball giving Ateneo possession.
Ravena, who at that point had been missing his outside shots all game long (0 of 6 from 3-point distance), drilled a step back triple to send the game into overtime at 57-all.
The Bulldogs erected a big lead early in the third. Kyle Neypes drilled a jumper; Alfred Aroga drove in strong to score on a left-handed layup; and Mohammad Al-Yusouf Salim stole the ball then soared in for a layup to push NU to a five-point, 41-36 lead with 1:40 to go in the third period.
But the Blue Eagles battled right back. John Apacible tipped in the basketball as time expired to cut the NU lead to just one point, 43-42, after three quarters.
Meanwhile, rookie Bonbon Batiller, newly transferred from General Santos City, scattered a game-high 23 points to power the University of the East Red Warriors past the Adamson University Soaring Falcons, 89-78.
UE (2 wins, 1 loss) posted its second consecutive victory in the UAAP Season 78 men's basketball tournament after dropping its initial game to wheel back into contention.

Karras joins players suing NFL over head injuries
To a generation of TV and film fans, Alex Karras will forever be the loving adoptive dad on the 1980s sitcom �Webster� or the big guy who punched a horse in 1974�s �Blazing Saddles.� Before his acting days, he was a football star, a three-time All-Pro defensive tackle for the Detroit Lions in the 1960s.
Now 76, and diagnosed with dementia, Karras is taking on the role of lead plaintiff: He and his wife, Susan Clark, are two of 119 people who filed suit Thursday in U.S. District Court in Philadelphia, the latest complaint brought against the NFL by ex-players who say the league didn�t do enough to protect them from head injuries.
�All through the time that I�ve been with him, he has suffered headaches and dizziness and high blood pressure and all kinds of things that are ... usually the result of multiple concussions,� Clark said in a telephone interview.
Clark, who also played the wife of Karras� character on �Webster,� said he was formally diagnosed with dementia about seven years ago, but symptoms first showed up more than a dozen years ago.
Karras and 69 other ex-players named in Thursday�s suit are among more than 1,000 former NFL players suing the league. The cases say not enough was done to inform players about the dangers of concussions in the past, and not enough is done to take care of them today.
The NFL has said it did not intentionally seek to mislead players and has taken action to better protect players and to advance the science of concussion management and treatment.

Bury appoint former player David Flitcroft as their new manager
Bury have appointed former player David Flitcroft as their manager following his departure from Barnsley.
Last Updated: 09/12/13 9:44pm
The 39-year-old was shown the door by the Tykes at the end of November but has made a swift return to management with the Shakers, for whom he played over 100 games.
Bury chairman Stewart Day told the club's website: "I have been a long-time admirer of David and what he achieved at Barnsley was a credit to him and to his philosophy of hard work and dedication. This is my first managerial appointment as a chairman and it needed to be the right one. Hence I would not be rushed.
"I am confident that after meeting with David and his team that we have secured the best manager available to take us to the next level and help us achieve the five-year goal. David is a dedicated individual that will not accept anything but the best for Bury Football Club.
"He had received offers from other clubs at a higher level, but he has bought into what we are trying to achieve at this club and has committed his future to take us back to where we belong, the Championship.
"Together with the board I would like to thank Ronnie Jepson for all his hard work and commitment. We wish him well for the future, but he will be leaving the club with immediate effect.
"I knew the first year would be difficult both on and off the pitch, but promise to continue to work tirelessly to deliver the five-year plan. All I can ask is that the fans come out on Saturday to give our new manager the support he deserves and start the march back up the league."
Flitcroft's first game in charge will be on Saturday, when Bury face Northampton at Gigg Lane.

Man gets 6 years for attempting to solicit murders of three
He cursed a clerk who he thought sabotaged him.
He went off on a tirade to an officer that searched his home, ending with a gesture the officer interpreted as a target on his head.
He complained to inmates about the district attorney who put him away.
It was Gorman�s inability to stop obsessing about all three that led him to plot their murders.
When Gorman made his statement to the court before sentencing, he found himself at a loss for words.
�I can�t believe this whole thing happened,� Gorman said, as he slowly shook his head. �It just isn�t like me. I�m more the type of guy to help someone rather than hurt them.�
But Waukesha County Judge James Kieffer disagreed, calling him an �angry man� and sentencing him to six years in prison and five years of extended supervision.
�You had all this anger pent up,� Kieffer said. �In one fell swoop, you went hog wild.�
Gorman, 51, pleaded guilty April 9 to one count of solicitation of first-degree intentional homicide. Gorman attempted to hire an undercover police officer posing as a hit man to kill Walworth County Assistant District Attorney Diane Donohoo, East Troy police officer Kevin Weber and Village of East Troy Clerk Alita Bourdo.
Kieffer said he stopped short of giving Gorman the maximum sentence because of his relatively clean record before the incidents leading up to the plot.
Gorman was first arrested in 2009 for stalking Bourdo, whom he suspected of destroying evidence related to traffic citations he had received. Shortly after being released on bond, he was arrested again for bail jumping because he did not remove weapons found in his apartment by Weber. In each of these cases, Donohoo served as one of the prosecutors.
Defense attorney Chris Kuehn said Gorman had been shaken by an acrimonious divorce from his wife and what he felt was intimidation by a police officer who was his ex-wife�s �drinking buddy.�
While Kuehn did not defend Gorman�s actions, he cited jailhouse informant Robert Wheeler as a �prime motivator� in the plot. It was Wheeler, not Gorman, who initiated a conversation about taking out the three officials, Kuehn said.
Waukesha District Attorney Brad Schimel dismissed Wheeler as a �red herring,� saying law enforcement actually delayed arresting Gorman to prove his intent to kill the three. It was during this additional week that Gorman told the undercover cop that he would try to secure a weapon for the killings.
�We reached a point where we believed we couldn�t play this out any longer without risk,� Schimel said.
Gorman�s family stated in letters to the court that Gorman was a �nice man� who �would give you the shirt off his back,� but Kieffer noted their acknowledgment that he �couldn�t let things go.�
Given Gorman�s history of anger issues, Kieffer said, he needed to be removed from the community.
�No one should be scared to walk down the street, and you stole that from them, and I can�t allow that to occur anymore,� Kieffer said.
Gorman is ordered to participate in both anger management and a psychological assessment. Per Gorman�s request, Kieffer also ordered that Gorman not reside in Walworth County following his prison term.

Democratic leaders should undertake debates on issues in a more "rational way," one recalcitrant centrist Democrat suggested over the weekend.
Rep. Parker Griffith (D-Ala.), a conservative Blue Dog Democrat who said recently that he wouldn't again support Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) as speaker of the House, made more pointed remarks toward House leaders.
"I'm hopeful Speaker Pelosi will see this as an opportunity to discuss things like health care, education and illegal immigration in a rational way," he told the Huntsville Times.
"My constituents feel we need to come together as Americans," Griffith said. "If the Democratic leadership can't do that, perhaps we should look at altering that."
Griffith has been especially critical of House leaders, even more surprising coming from a first-term congressman in a vulnerable district.
Griffith told the Times that he'd received calls from Democratic leaders about what he said were his "honest and candid" remarks, but said he's not considering changing parties.

Return to the Q&A Main Page
Q. My hairdresser and I always have
a discussion about whether to cut my hair before my perm or after it.
My mother always insisted her hairdresser cut the hair first. She said that
by cutting the hair after the perm, they would cut the perm out. My hairdresser
does what I ask, but she really doesn't like it. What's the right thing
to do?
A. There are many people who
believe that by cutting the hair following the perm service, you are cutting
the perm "out" or "off". However, if you think about it, when hair
is permed, it is curled all the way to the scalp. So, yes, you would be
cutting some of the "perm" off. But, if you cut before the perm,
then there is potential for the stylist to either cut the hair too short,
or not enough, because you cannot see the true "length" until after the perm.
Also, by cutting following the perm, they are able to trim off any ends
that may be frizzy from previous perms or other damage. Please try to remember
that your stylist is a professional, they support their families by their
work, and they strive to do the best possible for the client.

Sheamus recently spoke to HollywoodLife.com promoting WrestleMania and answered questions about his match with Daniel Bryan, the winner of Rock vs. John Cena and some pop culture questions. Check out the highlights:
On his match with Daniel Bryan: "For two up and coming superstars, we are looking to steal the show! We are hungry and we have spent a lot of time getting to where we are today. Whether it was on the independent scene where we scratched and clawed, we want to be where John Cena and The Rock are, we want to be where The Undertaker and Triple H are, so you are looking at two guys who really want to go out there and steal the show!"
On who will win between Rock and John Cena: "Its always controversial to pick the winner and a hard thing to do but I honestly think that John Cena is going to come up the winner on April 1st. Both of them are icons, both are legends, both have achieved so much. Cena is here night and day and I think that will take its toll on The Rock who has been back for one match. But Cena is the one without the ring rust and the one who I think will win at WrestleMania."
On who he would want to play a romantic interest opposite him in a WWE Film: "The girl that was in Zombieland, Emma Stone. She seems like a lot of fun. She would have a good laugh and she seems down to earth. That is what you really want, you definitely want someone that you'd enjoy to be around. I think Emma Stone would be the one."
On his favorite actors and filmmakers: "I love Johnny Depp, I am really looking forward to the next Tim Burton film Dark Shadows. I love Tim Burton's films. I also love Robert Downey Jr. The Sherlock Holmes films are brilliant! So I would those are my favorite actors and the best actors in Hollywood at the moment."
On what he loves most about his fans: "Fans that come to our shows, its funny I never thought I would see the day where kids are dying their hair red and drawing fake orange mustaches. Its funny, when I was a kid I wanted to be anything but a red head and now all the kids are dying their hair. Its really cool! I'm bringing ginger back."

we recently moved dcmembers.com stuff to a new server.. it's possible we missed okke's account -- certainly not on purpose gothic (our wonderful server admin) will look into it and fix.
Thanks for the plugin.I have been using it for a while and it mostly works as I remember it (i.e. it locates the files).However I have been getting the following error when I right-click on the found files: "External Exception E06D7363" instead of the option to open the file or to open the folder it is in.Does anyone else have the same problem?

OXFORD City had a man sent off for the second successive game, but maintained their unbeaten Vanarama Conference North start with a battling and deserved 0-0 draw at Marsh Lane.
Darren Mullings saw red in City's 1-0 win at Hyde on Saturday, and last night Alex Hernandez was dismissed for a professional foul as Justin Merritt's side made it four points from two games.
Hernandez had gone close with a 40-yard effort in the opening period, while at the other end, City keeper Mark Scott got down well to keep out the visitors.
Adi Yussuf fired wide for City and the same player then crossed into the box, but Felipe Barcelos was unable to control the loose ball.
Daniel Nti volleyed just wide of the far post for the visitors, before last man Hernandez was shown the red card for a professional foul with 20 minutes left.
Although ex-City striker Mike Symons went close for Worcester late on, the hosts were good value for a point.
Oxford City: Scott, Benjamin, Lapoujade, Malone (Winters 65), Hernandez, Brown, Barcelos (Wilson 85), Mullings, Yussuf (Cook 75), del Alamo, Rodriguez. Sub not used: Stonehouse.
Attendance: 241.

How come the Zero Reply Thread.... ?
never seems to go down from : "Pages (1081)", no matter how many I reply to?
Maybe categorized sections for the zero reply link would be cool. Then if your forte is X, you can go through a whole bunch real quick like.
By O/S or by context, Networking or GUI or Install, etc.
Mister/Miss Moderator... please move this thread to suggestions... thanx. :)
That's a bit more work than I want to do!
Let me just point out that it IS possible to view 0 reply threads only in the sub-section you want. It doesn't break them down by X or whatever... but you can at least narrow it down a little.
Example: When in the linux-newbie forum, click on the "view all threads with 0 replies" link near the top of the list of topics... and it will show all the 0 reply threads in the the linux-newbie forum only.
I hope I made that clear... it's hard to describe.
Clink on this link for an example of what you would see:
oh wow
never noticed that link
that basically solves the problem :)
we are just like everybody else ,nothing's changed.
in fact after reading posts in this thread i did have a sudden interest in those 0 replies.Thanks
originally it was:
"the hypocracy of the linux(open source?) communities in general ?
they are just like everybody else ,nothing's changed."
thanks for the knock from scuzzman.
Personally, I think jeremy and the mods do an incredible job here at LQ. I think the members of LQ offer a great help site for people struggling with Linux.
Remember, no-one, repeat no-one, is being paid for this. They all do this because the Linux/Open Source community is great, and if I ever meet jeremy or a mod, you can bet I'll buy'em a beer.
the hypocracy of the linux(open source?) communities in general ?
we are just like everybody else ,nothing's changed.
that post had been re-edited.
thanks for the knock.
I was referring to the "hypocrites" (or however the hell that's spelled) part.
I don't consider myself one...
neither do anybody consider themselves that....
any better words other than "hypocrisy"(after checking the dictionary):(
Just to balance it all out, the reasons that we have 0 reply threads are simple: people with knowledge sometimes miss the threads, the threads are so poorly titled ("Heeeeeellllllpppp" and "I am a noob" type titles) that our more active members will sometimes disregard them and finally, the problem may be so specific to one site or be to do with something so obscure that no one can help.
Let's not forget that thread starters can help themselves by replying to their own threads with things they have tried while waiting for an answer, that can sometimes kick start an answer.

Well … in true Lake Tahoe form the weather was not so Spring like at the Heavenly Resort on March 25th for the 1st annual LumberJack LogJam, presented by SESSIONS. But, the weather did not keep many away, nor did it keep some of top amateur riders from throwing down on the course set up by the SouthShore Soldiers Troops and the Heavenly Park Crew.
The weekend started out with a swell spring day for practice and registration on Friday, and the registration was maxed out with 80 riders signed up by the afternoon. Even though this was an amateur event, there was a lot at stake with the winner getting an invite to SuperPark and a grip of other prizes! The course was designed to be fun and laidback, not super gnarly as we wanted everyone to just have fun and feel like they were just shredding with their homies. Heavenly did just that with the course, which consisted of a channel gap at the top with a long flat box in between, then into a nice medium sized park kicker, then you could choose between a 2 piece flat to down street rail or a up to flat box, which looked to be the most fun for the riders! After all those the course ended up with yet another tough choice between a straight street rail, a real log rail setup, or another log that had p-tex topping on it…after all it is the LogJam! After getting wicked on the wood, there was a dope wall ride that you could also air to from the side and slide the top. The wall ride is where we saw the Best Trick go down from Robert Dawson with a 270 across the top of the wallride, to 270 out. He ended up finishing the day in 3rd place.
The contest was run in a jam format, with the top 10 from each heat going to the finals. The judges, which consisted of SESSIONS Pro Brandon Bybee, and Tahoe ripper Jimi Tomer braved the soggy weather and had a tough time judging as so many people where throwing down and just having fun! As the day went on it seemed as though the young bucks where the ones to watch, as Zak Hale and Nick Poohachoff where slaying it all day. Nick ended up with the top score in the qualifiers, putting him on the top going into the finals. But, after the finals it was Zak who would end up with the win and a round trip ticket to anywhere in the US and the ticket to SuperPark! Not bad for a 13 year old, after riding solid all day and mixing it up on all the obstacles! It was pretty rad watching all the young bucks ride and see that they did not really care if they won or not, but rather just have some fun and maybe win some goodies!
Jimmy Halopoff on Zak Hale, "Overall, his consistency really validated the little man winning.
Joanna D. was the only female shredder to hang with the guys in the finals and she killed it. She was awarded the Paula Bunyon Award, ticket to ride, and an invite to the womens Superpark in Mammoth.
The LumberJack JogJam was started as an outlet for any sponsored amateurs to come out and ride and showcase their talent and style in a fun and mellow atmosphere. And come out they did…there were riders from all over the US and Canada, as well as some ladies that were holding it down with the boys. The contest was a huge success and look for more stops in the future!
"Sessions LogJam is a true grassroots event. It gives the younger riders their own event without being over shadowed by the big name pros. These kids are the future of our sports. Rob Jah.
A special thanks goes out to all the sponsors. Sessions, Heavenly Resort, Electric, SouthShore Soldiers, Snowboarder, Freeskier, SkullCandy, Gore-Tex and Hanes Beefy T.
See you next year!
Final Results:
1. Zak Hale
2. Nick Poohachoff
3. Robert Dawson (Trick of the Day)
4. Michael Lavertu
5. Kyle Earl
Paul Bunyon Award- Robert Dawson
Paula Bunyon Award- Joanna D.

The ability of first-time buyers to get a foot on the property ladder improved slightly last year, but many are still being held back by the rising cost of living.
Research by RBS, outlined in its Ability to Buy Index, found that first-time buyers' ability to purchase a property increased by just 1% in 2011.
This is despite falling house prices and the stamp duty concession, which gives first time buyers a break from paying the 1% tax if they are purchasing a property worth up to £250,000.
The small in increase in the ability to buy has been largely attributed to the rising cost of living in the past year. First-time buyers' earnings were found to have increased last year, but high inflation meant that many struggled to come up with the money required to purchase a mortgage.
"The RBS Ability to Buy Index improved by 1% in 2011 to its best level since 2009. But the size of improvement was hindered by higher living costs," said Fionnuala Earley, UK Consumer Economist at RBS Group.
"More simplistic measures of affordability suggest a much bigger improvement than this. But by including living costs we get a much more accurate picture of the real ability to buy. Without the surge in prices of essentials, particularly transport, first-time buyers' ability to buy would have improved to 2003 levels in 2011."
High inflation last year meant that the amount of first-time buyers' incomes which could be used to save for a deposit or make mortgage payments was lower than in 2010.
"A typical UK FTB will still have to save for almost three years to raise a 10% deposit, even after taking into account further modest falls in prices," added Ms Earley.

On the heels of President Obama's call for Congress to recommit to passing a healthcare reform bill this year, AACP sent a letter to all members of Congress to add strength to the President's message and to reiterate our support for issues aimed at improving the quality of care and increasing access to preventive and wellness care. AACP members are encouraged to reach out to Senate and House of Representatives members of the state or district in which their college or school of pharmacy is located and bring attention to this letter. For additional information, please contact Will Lang, AACP vice president of policy and advocacy.
As announced by then President Victor A. Yanchick and others during the Boston meeting, AACP is launching American Pharmacy Educator Week, Oct. 25-31, 2009, to highlight the outstanding career opportunities in academia awaiting students, practitioners and scientists of all disciplines. A kit containing posters, buttons, informational folders and suggestions on how these might be displayed and used at your institution should be reaching each dean's office this week. If you would like additional kit items, many are available for download on AACP's Web site. Also, don't forget to send your American Pharmacy Educator Week stories and pictures to Rebecca Morgan, AACP director of communications, by Dec. 15 for inclusion in the Jan/Feb/Mar edition of Academic Pharmacy Now.
In 2007, the AACP Educating Clinical Scientist Task Force proposed a policy encouraging colleges and schools of pharmacy associated with Academic Health Centers (AHC) to offer an interdisciplinary Ph.D. education/training program for clinical scientists in experimental therapeutics. To assist existing programs and those colleges and schools that are planning such programs, AACP will convene a Graduate Education/Training in Experimental Pharmacotherapeutics Summit on Sunday, Nov. 8, 2009 in Los Angeles, Calif. at the University of Southern California. To register, visit the AACP Web site and e-mail the completed registration form to Richelle Wilkins, AACP meetings assistant, or fax it to her at 703-739-0908. Registration is $75 and attendance will be limited to approximately 100 individuals.
AACP has added a Pharmacy-based Identification and Screening for Memory Decline curricular guide for colleges and schools of pharmacy in its online Curricular Resource Center. This guide increases faculty awareness of and access to tools and resources for pharmacy-based memory screening that will facilitate meaningful teaching and training activities within colleges and schools of pharmacy. It can be used by faculty responsible for professional practice laboratories, geriatric practice courses and service-based learning activities, as well as those advising student organizations.
AACP, the Case Management Society of America and Auburn University have teamed to offer pharmacy educators an innovative workshop, Motivational Interviewing Training Institute, which focuses on motivating patients to make life-long health behavior changes (through addressing patient ambivalence and resistance) and identifying dynamic interviewing tools. Early-bird registration for the Oct. 23-25 session of the Institute to be held at Auburn University will end on Sept. 23. To take advantage of the $50 savings, register today by visiting the Case Management Society of America Web site.
NACDS Foundation
The NACDS Foundation is now accepting applications for the 2009 Pharmacy Student Scholarship Program. Students who have completed their first professional year at a U.S. college or school of pharmacy, and have a strong desire to pursue a career in the chain community pharmacy setting, are encouraged to apply. A minimum of 65 $2,000 scholarships will be awarded. In addition, select recipients will receive named scholarships in the amounts of $2,500, $3,000 or $5,000.
