NEARLY five years after he was appointed as Kevin Rudd's full-time fuel "cop", support for the nation's Petrol Commissioner is running on empty.
As frustrated commuters suffer increasing pain at the pump, Joe Dimasi cannot point to a single major achievement since assuming the role and has lost the backing of key motoring groups.
Amazingly, Mr Dimasi still insists he isn't actually the Petrol Commissioner, years after an official press release declared him just that. And now, even the Prime Minister's office is trying to rewrite history.
Asked whether the Government considers Mr Dimasi to be the Petrol Commissioner, Mr Rudd's office issued a statement that avoided using the title, instead calling him "Commissioner to the ACCC with special responsibility for fuel related issues."
There was no such fudging on October 1, 2008, when the Government triumphantly declared the appointment of Mr Dimasi as "ACCC Petrol Commissioner".
In opposition, Mr Rudd proposed the role would be a "full-time petrol cop on the beat" because "Labor believes the federal government has a duty to do everything in its power to ensure that motorists aren't paying one cent more on petrol than is necessary".
Motoring groups across the country and the overarching Australian Automobile Association expressed bemusement over Mr Dimasi's backing away from the title and from problems in the petrol market.
"It's been a waste of time ... political window-dressing," said AAA executive director Andrew McKellar.
NRMA president Wendy Machin said: "We all feel it's been an experiment that's failed, sadly, to the detriment of competition and consumers."
Multiple motoring groups said the commissioner should be investigating potential price gouging in Coffs Harbour in NSW, Port Augusta in SA and in Darwin, to name just a few locations.
"The margins in Darwin are ridiculous," said RACQ public policy manager Michael Roth.
And that's not all. Nationally, retail "margins have been rising", said CommSec economist Savanth Sebastian. Over the last 12 months the national retail margin averaged 9.3c compared to 8.2c for the past five years, he said.
The Royal Automobile Club of WA said motorists there were being overcharged 3c a litre - or $500,000 a week.
The NRMA's Ms Machin said: "Why isn't someone forcing the oil companies to front up and tell us what they are doing?"
Ms Machin and others said the commissioner role needed to be strengthened, or scrapped.
The Coalition will abolish the role if elected.
"There's more substantial and meaningful action that can be taken rather retaining the shingle of Petrol Commissioner," said Opposition competition policy spokesman Bruce Billson.
This included giving consumers access to the same information oil companies were sharing between themselves and examining whether the laws at the ACCC's disposal were tough enough.
The PM's spokeswoman said: "The Government is committed to making sure that the watchdog, the ACCC, has the powers it needs to enforce our competition and consumer laws."
Mr Dimasi wasn't available for interview. In writing, he was asked to nominate three major successes. The response was this ACCC statement: "Along with the other commissioners, Mr Dimasi is responsible for all of the activities of the ACCC. Mr Dimasi oversees the commission's work on fuel monitoring, but also chairs the commission's committee that deals with regulated access and pricing matters.
"As the commission has previously indicated, it currently has major investigations in relation to information sharing in the fuel sector and in relation to shopper dockets. We expect these investigations to be completed later this year."
How Labor fuelled expectations:
Promise: A "national petrol commissioner'' - then Opposition Leader Kevin Rudd, June 2007
Reality: "I'm not the petrol commissioner," Mr Dimasi, March 2012
Promise: Introduce FuelWatch nationally to "put pressure on retailers to get the best deal possible for motorists" - Mr Rudd, April 2008
Reality: FuelWatch canned in November 2008, before it even began
Promise: Considering limiting price increases to no more than 3c a day - then Consumer Affairs Minister Chris Bowen, December 2007
Reality: Never happened
Promise: Remove real-time price co-ordination between retailers via Informed Sources - ACCC report to Mr Bowen, December 2007
Reality: Began formally investigating Informed Sources just 14 months ago. No action to date
Promise: Jail terms for serious cartel behaviour - Mr Bowen, October 2007
Reality: In July 2009 law created introducing jail terms for serious offences. Never used
Promise: Monitor shopper-docket developments including "changes to the extent in the impact … on competition" - Mr Bowen, December 2007
Reality: Formal investigation begun a year ago. No action to date

VoiVod – Vocalist, Snake (Denis Belanger)
Interviewed by EvilG
Interview Questions by EvilG and Arto
Transcribed by EvilG
It must be hard for VoiVod to talk about the painful topic of Piggy's death and to continue the band without him (Denis "Piggy" D'Amour passed away on August 26, 2005 due to cancer). Despite Piggy's physical absence, he is still quite present since his guitar tracks for the forthcoming VoiVod album KATORZ were already prepared in advance. In this interview with VoiVod vocalist Snake, we talk about the new album, playing live, DVD plans, and much more. Enjoy!

Central Michigan University Review
Central Michigan University offers numerous areas of concentration through their online MBA degree program. Students with a bachelor's in any discipline can apply, but a long list of business prerequisites favors those with business-related backgrounds.
The Good
Several concentrations available
The online MBA program at Central Michigan University (CMU) offers multiple areas of focus, including marketing, logistics management, human resource management, value-driven organization, and enterprise resource planning using SAP programming. Depending on the concentration, your entire degree requires 31 to 43 credit hours for completion. The areas of emphasis offered at CMU are very specialized and unique, especially considering that some online MBA programs do not offer concentrations at all.
Accelerated degree options
Certain concentrations enable students to complete the program at a relatively quick rate. The human resource management, enterprise resource planning, and value-driven organization specialties, for instance, require just nine core courses in business administration and three related electives.
Rich online tools and resources
CMU offers convenient access to a comprehensive and sophisticated library service, which contributes greatly to a rewarding online academic experience. Prospective students can easily utilize the online MBA website to chat with an admissions counselor, view FAQs, and complete the online application.
Competitively priced tuition
Tuition rates for CMU MBA programs vary depending on the concentration but, in most cases, the per-credit rate is $600. This rate applies to both in-state and out-of-state students. CMU is not as affordable as programs like Arkansas State University, where tuition comes in at $467 per credit, but considering that some programs charge more than $1,900 per credit for out-of-state students, the rates at CMU are definitely appealing if you're looking for a more affordable MBA option.
The Bad
Nine prerequisite classes required
Acceptance into CMU is easier for individuals with business-related undergraduate degrees and/or business work experience due to the program's nine prerequisites. To fulfill them, you can either show proof of completion of a course-equivalent, or you can demonstrate proficiency with an exam or letter of evidence from your employer. The areas in which you must demonstrate competency include business communications, accounting, economics, business law, marketing, management principles, supply chain or operations management, finance, and statistics. If you do not meet all of these criteria, CMU offers courses to get you caught up before entering the program. There are other online MBA programs that have far fewer prerequisite course requirements, which may be important if you want to get started right away.

Our regular readers will know that I have always liked the Renault Fluence because of its French flair. Also, the car makes for an interesting option to stand out in a segment full of Japs and Czech cars. Initially, while the Fluence petrol came loaded to the gills, Renault recognized the rising demand for diesels and had launched the Fluence with little fewer bells and whistles (okay, a lot lesser) in the fantastically priced diesel avatar. Recently however, Renault India gave the Fluence diesel some much needed revisions and some of the major shortcomings of the car- lacklustre performance below 2000RPM followed by a jack hammer boost and low equipment level, have been done away with.
Now, Renault, in a surprising move, launches a stripped down variant of the 2012 Fluence Diesel E2. The prices have gone south by a good lakh and a half in lieu of omitting of some of that equipment.
The cut price version of the 2012 Fluence Diesel E2 version is being called the 'Advantage Edition' and is being offered for a price of INR 11.99 lakhs. At this price, the car is now a whopping 1.65 lakh rupees cheaper. Now, the "conditions apply" part- the 'Advantage Edition' is a limited edition and will be on sale until stocks last. The 'Advantage Edition' does not enjoys the advantages of sporting chrome finish on window sill and boot lid, rain sensing wipers, leather upholstery, dual zone automatic climate control, rear AC vents, automatic headlamps, cruise control, rear parking sensors, rear window blinds, electrical adjustments and folding on ORVMs, ElectroChrome rear view mirror and USB and Bluetooth connectivity.
Thankfully, ABS, dual Airbags, ESP, engine start-stop button and alloy wheels have been retained on this new variant of the car. Basically, all the new features that the revised Fluence Diesel was being offered with have been dumped.
Will you buy this stripped down variant of the otherwise well sorted out car?

Advocacy Council
Don't let the word 'new' throw you off — the Advocacy Council of ACAAI is comprised of the same team of experts who served you as the Joint Council of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (JCAAI) for 40 years. Over those four decades, they've fought for our specialty and protected our practices. The Advocacy Council team has deep roots in advocacy and decades of experience with allergy, asthma and immunology issues. As we look toward our future with the Advocacy Council, it seems like the perfect time to highlight our teams' experience and accomplishments and see what's coming next.
Message From the Chair
My term as chair of the Advocacy Council of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology is quickly coming to an end. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank all of you for the distinct honor of serving in this position. The Advocacy Council continues to grow and adapt with the never-ending changes in medicine. We like to think our team does a great job advising members on how the changes will impact their practices and what they need to do to implement those changes.
Our board of directors is committed to making sure allergists' voices are heard — on a national, regional and local level. During the past two years, the board's tireless efforts to ensure a smooth transition from the Joint Council of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (JCAAI) to the Advocacy Council has laid a strong foundation on which future leaders will build.
Upon completion of my term, Dr. Stephen A. Imbeau will become the Advocacy Council chair, after serving as vice chair for the past two years. He previously served on the board of directors of the Joint Council and was JCAAI president from 2008 to 2010. Dr. Imbeau is an active member of several state and county medical societies and the American Medical Association, serving on many committees. He is a strong supporter of this community, so I know that I am leaving the Advocacy Council in good hands.
But I won't be too far away. I've been nominated to serve as vice president of ACAAI and look forward to working closely with the Advocacy Council in this new capacity. Allergy's future in medicine is changing, and we — your allergy leaders — are working diligently to strengthen our niche.
Thank you all for your continuing support.
Member Profiles
J. Allen Meadows MD, FACAAI, Chair
J. Allen Meadows, MD, FACAAI, is a clinical instructor of internal medicine and family practice at the University of Birmingham, and a solo community-based practitioner at the Alabama Allergy & Asthma Clinic in Montgomery, Ala. He has been heavily involved in advocacy, especially in-person, throughout his career. He was president of the JCAAI until it became part of the College in March, past JCAAI secretary and has been chair of the Allergy Strike Force since its inception. "I've been involved in advocacy and political campaigns literally since I could walk," said Dr. Meadows.
While at the JCAAI, he worked hard to convince the board that in-person advocacy efforts - such as the Allergy Strike Force - were crucial and needed to be continued. Now, he's looking forward to the strongest Allergy Strike Force ever. "We will have a record number of doctors participating in visits on Capitol Hill this May. We will be advocating for the value of allergy care, the need to have allergists in all health care panels, funding for allergy GME training and correction of the SGR problem once and for all."
"And more good things are on the horizon. The move to the new Advocacy Council gives members a lot to look forward to," said Dr. Meadows. "We will offer the same excellent services the JCAAI offered for decades - plus some new ones. The support of the College will allow us to move into areas we were not able to in the past. I expect we will be able to offer even more assistance to College members so they can more easily solve local matters themselves."
Stephen Imbeau MD, FACAAI, Vice Chair
Stephen Imbeau, MD, FACAAI, is assistant clinical professor at the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston and one of the founders of the Allergy, Asthma and Sinus Center in Florence, S.C. He served on the JCAAI board for 14 years, including as president and has been a member of the Allergy Strike Force since its inception. He is on the Board of Directors of the AMA's bipartisan political action committee, AMPAC. For his efforts on behalf of his patients and the specialty, Dr. Imbeau has been honored by both the South Carolina Senate and House of Representatives. He has always been politically active, staying heavily involved in local, state and national politics for nearly 30 years. He has worked as a campaign volunteer in more than 10 local races, eight state races and nine national races, including three Presidential campaigns. "Six out of eight of our South Carolina Federal Legislators have been to my home and three have been overnight house guests," said Dr. Imbeau.
During his time with the JCAAI, he was able to participate in several key advocacy actions. "I'm proud to have been a part of the settlement of "black box" warning issues, modifier misuse, the compounding issue with the United States Pharmacopeia and to have been a part of the implementation of the allergenic extract/ media fill testing program and certification," said Dr. Imbeau.
With all College members now receiving the support of the new Advocacy Council, Dr. Imbeau wants to generate awareness of this new member benefit. "We're going to make sure the Advocacy Council becomes the "go-to" resource for members seeking education and resources regarding coding, reimbursement and advocacy. We will offer the same excellent services the JCAAI offered for decades — plus some new ones."
James L. Sublett, MD, FACAAI, Executive Director of Advocacy and Governmental Affairs
James L. Sublett, MD, former ACAAI president, recently joined the Advocacy Council team as the Executive Director, Advocacy and Governmental Affairs. He is also a past-president of the Joint Council of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (JCAAI) and has provided invaluable guidance over the years. He is the co-founder and managing partner of his practice in Louisville, Kentucky. He's served as a clinical professor and Section Chief of Pediatric Allergy and Immunology at the University of Louisville School of Medicine for more than 20 years. His knowledge and experience will help to guide us through the myriad of changes to medicine and our practices.
Gary Gross, MD, FACAAI, Coding Expert
Gary Gross, MD, FACAAI, currently practices at the Dallas Allergy & Asthma Center in Dallas. He served as a JCAAI board member from 1998 and served as executive vice president since 2003. Working alongside Dr. Aaronson, he was a crucial part of implementing some of the current CPT codes allergists use today.
Having worked on many important issues, Dr. Gross knows that the resources the Advocacy Council provides are needed now more than ever. "We have been able to make great strides with coding and reimbursement issues, but more change is coming. Luckily, the Advocacy Council has some incredible resources - like Dr. Aaronson - to help our members," said Dr. Gross.
There is more to look forward to than just help understanding coding, however. "Members are going to have access to even more tools and tips on practice management thanks to the combined strengths of the College and the Advocacy Council team." He is looking forward to the Advocacy Council being able to reach out to younger members. "In this changing health care environment, it's more important than ever that younger allergists learn about the issues affecting their specialty. The Advocacy Council is going to be there to help them navigate this new health care system and give them the resources they need to make their voices heard where it counts."
Rebecca Burke, JD, Powers Pyles Sutter & Verville
Powers Pyles Sutter & Verville (PPSV), a Washington, D.C.-based law firm focusing on health care, education and tax-exempt organizations, has been JCAAI's legal and regulatory counsel since the mid-eighties.
Rebecca Burke, JD, and her colleagues at PPSV have advised the JCAAI on issues such as Medicare reimbursement, valuation of allergy services before the AMA RUC, development of new CPT codes, best coding practices, HIPAA privacy rules, coverage and payment issues involving government and commercial payers, and appealing payment denials. Burke has more than 30 years of health care law experience, specifically in regulatory and reimbursement services. She has represented the JCAAI before the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, in addition to other federal agencies, on a variety of important issues. "Rebecca really brings a different perspective to the team," said Dr. Aaronson, "She is able to look at other points of view when examining issues, and her experience working closely with the AMA is invaluable."
Bill Finerfrock, Capitol Associates
Capitol Associates, a well-respected health care advocacy firm with decades of experience and a track record of success in Washington D.C., worked with the JCAAI for more than 25 years.
Dealing exclusively in health care, Capitol Associates has the right expertise to ensure that members' voices are heard. "We have a lot of experience with Congress and the various governmental agencies. We know how the process works - how to craft the right message, how to maximize resonance on Capitol Hill. We know who to reach out to and how to get things done when there are problems that need solving," said Bill Finerfrock. The years of experience that Capitol Associates had with the JCAAI will now benefit members exclusively. "We understand that not all physicians are the same, and that the challenges that face allergy/immunology specialists aren't the same as the ones facing other doctors. Capitol Associates has a lot of historical knowledge and familiarity with the allergy/immunology specialty, and is acutely aware of the unique challenges allergists come up against. Because we understand the nuances of the specialty and have this knowledge, we're able to communicate that to Congress," said Finerfrock. Capitol Associates worked closely with the JCAAI around the 2013 compounding issue. Without the intervention of the JCAAI, allergists would have been prevented from mixing extracts in-office. Capitol Associates continues to provide invaluable assistance to the Advocacy Council as the compounding issue continues.
Finerfrock is the newest member to the Advocacy Council team, but has worked in health care advocacy for more than 30 years. "I've been involved with stakeholders in all aspects of health care, from individual providers to hospitals, to clinics and organizations representing all branches of health care. I'm familiar with everything from the back office to Medicare payment and reimbursement - and I'm glad to be bringing all of that experience to the Advocacy Council."

Testing Webservers via Telnet or OpenSSL
Today I ran into an issue testing a website where I wanted to telnet to the server to see that it was responding appropriately. The problem that I ran into was that the site is using SSL encryption. So using telnet wouldn't cut it. A quick search let me to Matthew Nuzum's blog, but I wanted to post it on my own blog for future reference.
So if you want to test a regular non-SSL site, you would use the following telnet command (please use your own domain for testing).
telnet google.com 80
After you are connected, you'd paste the following GET request and press enter twice. The empty line signals when your request is complete to the web server. You should then see the page headers and the html content.
GET / HTTP/1.1 Host: google.com
If you wanted to test an SSL enabled site, you would still paste the same GET request to the web server. But instead of using telnet, you would need to use the openssl command below. After you run the command, you'll see details of the web server's certificate. Then paste in the GET request and you should get back the page headers and content. Matthew's blog mentions that it is best to type your GET request into a text document and use copy and paste rather than typing it each time. I guess there can be a relatively short timeout depending on the server configuration.
openssl s_client -connect google.com:443

Introduction to Xcode 4 Development
Xcode 4 development involves the use of Xcode 4 to efficiently handle the process of developing applications using Xcode 4. The good thing about using Xcode 4 is that it presents the easiest means of provisioning your devices for more effective development. All that it takes is for you to sign in using your account and take a look on all your signing certificates and provisioning profiles. Note that Xcode is capable of providing an iOS wildcard app ID and default iOS profile for team provisioning. You can expect Xcode 4 to be capable of automatically updating all your provisioning profile whenever new device IDs or development certificates are being added into your account.
If you are seriously contemplating about performing the Xcode 4 development process, then be aware that an Xcode copy as well as the software development kit (SDK) designed for iOS are among the things that you need. Note that Apple has complete control over the tools used by their developers so signing up for its developer program is one of the few things that you should do especially if you have plans of publishing your developed app. The good thing is that you can download Xcode for free as long as you are already signed up for the program. Once you have the Xcode 4, you can start using this to improve your capability of running iOS programs in simulator designed for Mac. This simulator refers to a software emulation that works in emulating the capabilities of an iPhone or iPad.

About this Costume
- Construction Details:
The fitted top has princess seams with zipper closure at the back. All edges are finished with bias binding. I had a tough time getting the bias tape to lay smoothly around curves. The pleated skirt is made out of cotton twill, which lends well to crisp pleats. The armor is made of craft foam. It was a fun learning experience and I'm happy with the way it came out. I also made the belt from scratch because I couldn't find any double wrap belt that I like. It is made of white vinyl with silver pleather binding.
- Personal Thoughts:
- Having spent five years of my life playing World of Warcraft as an undead priest alongside with *GQBravo's orc warrior, Sword Art Online had embraced me in a MMORPG setting that I have nostalgia for. I've learned a lot of new things while making this costume. It was my first time (1) making armor, (2) making a pleated skirt, (3) doing satin stitch, and (4) using double fold bias tape.

I first became interested in stamps at the age of 9. Like many, I had a childhood stamp collection and as I grew older, my enthusiasm for stamps has never waned and I have been collecting ever since. But what about those stamp collections, started by your grandfather or uncle, that has been sitting in the attic for all these years. Could it possible hold a hidden gem?
I'm here to say that yes, it could contain a stamp or post card that is very valuable in today's market. You'll never know until you pull it out and take a look.
Over the last three years, I have been privileged to appraise many stamp collections that were handed over the years from family member to family members. Most of the recipients have no idea where to start in establishing the value of these collections. Not every collection contains a hidden treasure, however now and then I come across one and am honored to be able to break the news to the lucky owner.
Now, this may be a good time to step back and explain a few things: First off, there is a specific code that identifies every stamp ever issued. Every stamp issued by a country receives a catalogue number according to date of issue. Sometimes a set of stamps is issued over a long period of time and numbers are saved until date of issue and then used consecutively.
Second, the value of stamps—like everything else in the collecting world—hinges on the condition of the stamp in question. All "classic" stamps issued between 1840-1940 are graded as follows: Fine; Fine-Very-Fine; Very Fine; and Extremely Fine (close to perfection). These terms are used when stamps are perfect, little off center on one or more sides, etc. There is no uniform set grading system. Not every dealer or specialist will come to the same exact conclusion.
So, back to those hidden gems. I recently attended a National Stamp Show as an appraiser and I came across a real gem. The stamp in question was Scott US #91 Abraham Lincoln 15¢ black. This stamp, when originally printed in 1868 sold originally for 15 cents. Today's catalogue value for this stamp $13,500, mint condition.
At another occasion, the gem happened to be an old postal card—Scott catalog UX #17 The cards were priced at 2¢. These cards where preprinted for large mailings by private companies. The postal cards in question where recalled, however, two of them got somehow in the mail. After the authenticity was confirmed—the item was in the collection passed on to my client from his grandfather. The catalogue value is $ 2,900 recently sold for $3,800. According to my notes (appraisal) the company that had them originally printed was Booth, Dailey & Ivins, a garbage company in New York, and one of the two that got away was mailed on Oct 14, 1902.
Now, before you start planning everything you're going to buy with the profits from Grandpa's collection, be warned that these examples are the exception. Still, a typical collection can be worth between $500 and $7,500, and even more so if you get lucky.
If you have stamps or a collection that you are interested in having evaluated you can contact me through WorthPoint's Ask a Worthologist service. You never know . . . you could be the owner of a hidden gem and just need me to tell you.

Ulster soldier killed in Afghan ambush
A soldier from Northern Ireland has been killed while on patrol in Afghanistan.
Belfast man Sean Binnie, a soldier from the Black Watch, 3rd Battalion The Royal Regiment of Scotland, was patrolling with an Afghan National Army unit in Helmand Province when he was shot dead yesterday.
The 22-year-old, from the Ravenhill Road area of east Belfast, had just recently married his wife Amanda who is said to be "devastated" by his death.
He was killed during a reassurance patrol with the Afghan National Army in the vicinity of Woqab, close to Musa Qal'eh.
Spokesman for Task Force Helmand, Lieutenant Colonel Nick Richardson, said: "This is another tragic situation where we all feel this great loss.
"Words mean very little in this extremely sad situation but our thoughts and prayers are with the family and friends of this brave soldier.
"Their pain is our pain and as the years go by we will mourn the loss of this true British hero."
Tributes have been flooding in for Mr Binnie on social networking sites.
In a poignant message on her Bebo site, Mr Binnie's heartbroken wife Amanda (21) described him as "the love of her life".
"I'm so proud of him, he is so brave. I'll never forget him ... he will be with me forever in my life."

He's a beast and she's a beauty with a beastly temper, so when they come together sparks fly. In Phil Porter's new version of the fairytale, the pair's love grows and blooms through gardening.
Belle is keeping the family farm together – despite hindrance from her waste-of-space sister and younger brother – when news comes that the goods lost at sea belonging to their former merchant father have been recovered. Belle, who enjoys their new life, thinks they should forget the past and accept that their circumstances have changed. But, of course, there wouldn't be a show unless dad set off to recover his booty – with predictably dire consequences.
As he did with last year's Cinderella, Porter offers a skewed take on a familiar story, and although you might argue that a plain tale simply told is often best, there are some entertaining diversions along the way. Some, like the anger management consultant sent to cure Belle of her tantrums, are perhaps a step too far. Others, such as the prince whose arms and legs sprout out of the soil, the ghostly boatman who takes travellers to the castle and the comic little mole-like creature, are great fun.
The show really hits its stride when Belle arrives at the castle, a place of glimmering chandeliers where the servants speak a wonderfully inventive language called Blabbersquish, in which food is called squaffle and tears are sorrydrops. The back story of Belle's mum's disappearance is underdeveloped, and it's not always clear why Belle is so angry, although anyone surrounded by a family of such wasters deserves to be. The pantomime sometimes lacks magic but never energy, and Belle's happy every after feels earned, not given.

The University of Idaho in an ongoing cooperative effort with the City of Moscow is offering off-street parking in several campus lots during the winter break, Saturday, December 21 through Tuesday, January 14.
The City appreciates this option in light of the Snow Removal Proclamation Ordinance. This ordinance requires that when a Snow Removal Proclamation is declared by the Mayor that vehicles parked on Snow Routes as outlined in the ordinance must be removed from the street. This is information is outlined on the City's website at http://www.ci.moscow.id.us/pub_works/engineering/snow.aspx.
With the possibility of snow during the winter break, this alternate parking provides an excellent option for residents along those routes to park vehicles elsewhere if they will be out of town during the break.
The lots available for students and residents during the break include:
For more information on parking on the University of Idaho campus, visit the Parking and Transportation Services webpage at http://www.uidaho.edu/parking/.
Parking in these lots is at the owners risk and vehicles must be removed by January 14. After January 14, vehicles will be subject to parking regulations as outlined by the University of Idaho Parking Regulations for each of the lots.
Additionally, the University of Idaho will not be allowing overnight parking on campus streets during the winter break. Any vehicle stored on campus for the break, or left overnight for any reason should park in one of the lots listed above. Vehicles parked overnight on campus streets will be eligible for citation and/or towing.
The City thanks the University for providing this space for residents and appreciates the ongoing partnership we have both enjoyed throughout the years.
For more information please call the City of Moscow Public Works Department at 208.883.7034. University of Idaho Parking and Transportation Services can be reached at 208.885.6424.

50 years ago
Extracts from the Barry & District News of June 18, 1964:
• An important step towards the establishment of a Butlin's holiday camp at Barry Island is notified in our advertisement columns this week. The Minister of transport has given notice that he proposes to make an order under the Town and Country Planning Act, 1962.
• Patricia Gibbons of Millwood Rise, Barry, a student of the Laban Art Movement Studio, Surrey, has been chosen to appear in William Mathias's Masque, "St Teilo," at the Llandaff Festival on Tuesday next, June 23. Patricia is a former pupil of Barry Girls' Grammar School.
• There seems to be no real prospect in the immediate future of solving the traffic problems at weekends and Bank Holidays at Barry Island – that was the doleful picture painted at last week's meeting of the Barry Road Safety Committee.
• 20-year-old Janet Rees, daughter of Mr and Mrs D L Rees of Trem-y-Don, Barry, on Thursday received a gold medal from Colonel Sir Thomas Butler, Bart, DSO, OBE, resident Governor and Major of the Tower of London, as the outstanding student nurse at Moofields Eye Hospital, London.
• 16-year-old Anne Jones of 8th Barry (All Saints') Guide Company was on Thursday in St Nicholas Scout Hall, presented with a Queen's Guide badge and certificate by Miss N Fletcher, County Commissioner for Cardiff and East Glamorgan. This is the highest award a Guide can achieve.
• Local interest in the athletics meeting at Jenner Park on Saturday was centred in the performance of Barry's Welsh champion, Elizabeth Gill, and she came through with flying colours in both the invitation sprint events.
• Miss M M Aykroyd, who has spent most of her professional life in the service of Barry Girls' Grammar School, and who has been deputy headmistress for the last six years, is retiring in July. The school governors have appointed Gwenllian Jones MA, as her successor. Miss Jones who comes from Llandre, near Aberystwyth, has been teaching Welsh at the school since 1941.

New Delhi: Preparing for a showdown, the Aam Aadmi Party government has said it was going ahead with tabling of the Jan Lokpal Bill in the Delhi assembly on Thursday notwithstanding Union Law Ministry's view that Centre's prior approval was required for it even as Congress and BJP held the move by the ruling dispensation as "unconstitutional".
"There is no rethinking in our position. We are going ahead with tabling of the Jan Lokpal Bill," a senior official in the AAP government said.
The Union Law Ministry has held that the rules governing Delhi government's legislative business were constitutional where Centre's consent was required before its passage. Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung on Monday had sought Law Ministry's view on the issue.
Sources in the government said the Jan Lokpal Bill will be tabled in the House on Thursday and there will be no rethinking on its tabling.
The Law Ministry has held that the Transaction of Business Rules (TBR) make it mandatory that the Lieutenant Governor refer to the Centre every legislative proposal which may necessitate additional financial assistance.
The four-day session of the Assembly is being convened to pass the Jan Lokpal and Swaraj Bills. The AAP government has announced plans to hold the last day of the session at the Indira Gandhi Indoor stadium.
Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has been maintaining that there is no need to obtain prior approval from the Centre while BJP and Congress are of the view that clearance was necessary under Transaction of Business Rules (TBR), 2002.
A senior official said as per laid down procedure, voting for introduction of the Bill will take place and Congress and BJP will have the option of opposing tabling of the Bill.
On Sunday, Kejriwal had threatened to resign if his pet anti-graft legislation is not passed by the state Assembly due to lack of support from other parties.

Danielle's Surprise Birthday Party
Hi! Sunday was Dani's 7 th birthday, so I had an amazing surprise party at the Ocean Grill for her on Saturday. About 6 little girls and their parents met at the grill at 11:00 am. I told Dani that I had to blog about someone famous who was in the ocean grill so we walked down there and upon entering everyone yelled "Surprise!!!" She said her heart was beating so fast over an hour later…. As soon as the greetings were over the kid's had a delicious lunch consisting of hamburgers or grilled chicken sandwiches accompanied by Danielle's favorite; The Chile Cheese Fries!!!! When they were finished we all moved up to the lagoon island where the kids swam. While they were swimming the adults were dining at the tables by the Promenade Bar. We ordered some conch fritters and coconut shrimp and a couple of cobb salads and just shared. Everyone raved about the food…. People love being invited to parties at Lago Mar because if you are not a member that is the only way to experience the property. And experience it they did….. they swam, played on the playground, tried some putt-putt golf, and even tried their hand at the giant chess set that is one of the most popular attractions. They were having so much fun that I had to tear them away for birthday cake…..No one wanted to leave, so the party just kept going on until it was almost dinner time. We were all socializing and listening to Craig Fitch play his guitar on the island. With all of the sunshine and the islandy music I just had to treat everyone to a refreshing tropical drink. It is great when the parents have more fun at a child's birthday party than the children do. That always happens at Lago. To make a long story short we ended up staying for dinner, too. Why should I cook when we can feast on Chef Phil's Prime Rib, the Saturday night special. Saturday was just a perfect day… Also, it is always nice to see the resort "pleasantly packed". I can not believe how great we are doing this July. We are actually having the best July in the history of the hotel. Cheers….Deb

Dr. Robert Locklear, an internist with Takoma Medical Associates and a member of the American Association of Sleep Medicine, will discuss symptoms and treatment of this disorder at the next "Time Out For Your Health" lecture-luncheon series.
"More than 12 million Americans suffer from sleep apnea," Locklear said. "It's very common, as common as adult diabetes."
Locklear -- who graduated from medical school at Duke University in Durham, N.C., and performed his residency at Eastern Virginia Medical School in Norfolk, Va. -- will speak at noon on Wednesday, May 10, at the Everett and Carolyn Coolidge Volunteer Conference Center at Takoma Adventist Hospital. A catered lunch will precede the program at 11:30 a.m.
Sufferers of sleep apnea (pronounced ap-knee-uh) literally stop breathing repeatedly during their sleep, sometimes hundreds of times during the night and often for a minute or longer. The most common type is obstructive sleep apnea, which is caused by a blockage of the airway, usually when the soft tissue in the rear of throat collapses and closes during sleep.
Risk factors include being male, overweight and over the age of 40, Locklear noted. "But sleep apnea can strike anyone, even children," he said.
Untreated, sleep apnea can cause memory problems, weight gain, high blood pressure, impotency and headaches.
"The good news is sleep apnea can be treated, and the great news for Greene County residents is that it can be treated locally at Takoma Adventist Hospital," Locklear said.
Takoma's Center for Sleep Disorders was the first of its kind in this county, he noted. "There is hope for those who have this condition," Locklear said. "It is something that can be corrected."
Locklear also will address treatment options at the lecture. "Generally, patients have a sleep study performed, which can be done at Takoma, and are given a special mechanical device called a C-Pap (continuous positive airway pressure) unit," said Locklear, who interpretes Takoma's sleep studies. "It's amazing how much this one device can change the quality of their lives."
The "Time Out" program costs $5, which includes a heart-healthy lunch. Reservations are required. For more information, please call the Takoma Hospital Volunteers at 639-3151, Ext. 2103.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — A workplace shooting in Minneapolis on Thuesday has left at least two people dead and four others wounded, police said.
The shooting at Accent Signage Systems, on the city's north side, resulted in "a couple of fatalities" and at least four people being taken to hospitals, Minneapolis police spokesman Steve McCarty said. He said police are treating it as an active crime scene.
Hennepin County Medical Center was treating three people from the scene, all in critical condition, spokeswoman Christine Hill said. She said the hospital wasn't expecting more patients with critical injuries.
Dozens of squad cars and police vehicles have surrounded the business in the Bryn Mawr neighborhood. Traffic was stopped on a nearby bridge along Penn Avenue, where law enforcement officers had rifles drawn and pointed at a park below. People from the neighborhood milled around but deputies kept them back.
Accent Signage Systems' website says the company makes interior signage and listed its founder as Reuven Rahamim. A phone message left at the business and at a residential listing for Rahamim was not immediately returned.
"Very sad situation in Bryn Mawr," Mayor R.T. Rybak tweeted. "Please stay away and let the police do their work."
Hennepin County sheriff's spokeswoman Lisa Kiava said earlier that deputies had been called to the shooting Thursday afternoon, though she didn't have further information.

Kirk Hinrich scored 25 points, Antonio Davis hit a go-ahead free throw with 1.4 seconds left in overtime and the Chicago Bulls beat the Magic, 102-101, last night in Orlando.
Tyson Chandler added 15 points and 22 rebounds for the Bulls, who had their nine-game winning streak snapped Tuesday night in Miami.
After Ben Gordon missed a runner on Chicago's final possession, Davis rebounded and was fouled by Kelvin Cato on the put-back try. Davis, shooting 74 percent from the line this season, missed the first then made the second.
Davis finished with 11 points and 14 rebounds.
Orlando's bid for victory in its first overtime game of the season didn't come close, as Jameer Nelson's wild three-pointer missed everything.
Combined with Philadelphia's win over Charlotte, the Magic is 2 1/2 games out of the eighth and final playoff berth with seven games remaining.
"It may look bleak, but I've seen stranger things happen," Orlando Coach Chris Jent said.
Steve Francis had 28 points and 11 assists for the Magic, while Nelson added 18 points and eight rebounds.
Grant Hill sat out his third straight game with a sore left shin, which has bothered him since being kicked more than five weeks ago.
PACERS 98, CAVALIERS 77: Stephen Jackson scored 23 points and Reggie Miller had 17 to lead host Indiana to its fifth straight win.
The game was never close after the Pacers held the Cavaliers to 10 points in the second quarter. Cleveland, which has lost nine of 13, made just 3 of 22 shots in the quarter and 36 percent for the game.
LeBron James scored 20 points on 9-for-18 shooting. He made four of six shots in the second half, but missed all three of his three-pointers.
Cleveland was without center Zydrunas Ilgauskas, who dislocated his right ring finger in a loss to New Jersey on Tuesday night. He will be re-evaluated after the swelling subsides.
76ERS 106, BOBCATS 103: Allen Iverson scored 48 points and kept host Philadelphia in the playoff hunt.

The brown lacewing resembles the green lacewing but is smaller in size, brown in colour, may have dark spots on the wings, and does not secrete stalks for its eggs. Some lacewing larvae hold debris (including the bodies of their victims) on their backs with hooks or bristles. This camouflage allows the lacewing larva to surprise its victims and also protects it from enemies.

Switch Kit
Switching your accounts is easy!
Our Pain-Free Switch Kit makes transferring your bank accounts simple. Just follow these steps to close your old accounts and transfer your balances to your new accounts at West Texas National Bank.
Closing Your Old Accounts
- Leave your old personal bank accounts open for at least 30 days, 60 days for business accounts, so any outstanding checks or direct deposits can clear.
- Leave a small amount of money in your old account to cover any outstanding checks or automatic payments, and to cover any service or maintenance fees. If your old account has a minimum balance requirement, you may want to leave enough money in the account to cover that minimum to avoid additional fees.
- Most banks, credit unions, and other financial institutions require your original signature to close your account. THIS DOES NOT MEAN YOU HAVE TO GO TO YOUR OLD BANK AND CLOSE YOUR ACCOUNT(S) IN PERSON. Most banks have a correspondence center which will take your account closing request by mail. You can request a cashier's check or an official bank check.
- Destroy your old bank checks and cut up ATM and/or debit cards. You want to make sure you don't write a check or make any charges against your old account.
Opening Your New Accounts
Find out which account is right for you from our Personal Banking or Business Banking.
- If you have automatic debits, payments, or you pay your bills online, it's important for you to provide accurate, up-to-date account information for your service providers. We do not recommend you email your account information to your service providers or employers, but do call via telephone or fax, or mail your new bank account information to your service providers. For business accounts, you'll also want to contact your payroll service provider, merchant card services, or wire originators. You'll need to provide them with the name, account number, location, and routing number of your new account(s).
- Arrange for direct deposits to be sent to your new West Texas National Bank account. Just call, or complete a simple form to let your employer know that your direct deposits (such as your paycheck) should be routed to your West Texas National Bank account. It usually takes one full pay period for direct deposit changes to go into effect, so please verify your information to ensure that your first deposit is made correctly.

A video claiming that superstar Aamir Khan used steroids for his 'Dangal' body is going viral on social networking website Facebook. The video that features Ranveer Ahllabadia, who claims to be a fitness expert, has been viewed over 7 lakh times in the last 22 hours.
Earlier this week, the makers of 'Dangal' released a video that showed Aamir's journey of losing 25 kgs in just five months. The video surprised everyone and Aamir was lauded for his dedication towards his work.
However, this hard work maybe didn't convince Ranveer as he took to Facebook to tell the 'reality'. He started the video by saying that he is not doing this to malign Aamir's image but to tell everyone the truth behind such changes.
In the 8 minutes long video, Ranveer gave arguments to support his claim. He claimed that it is impossible for a person to achieve this enviable physique in such a short span of time. He added that the 'Dangal' body can be built but it takes longer than five months. Ranveer also pointed out that the most common reason why people quit gym is because they don't see results in the time expected.
Ranveer then went on to draw comparisons between Aamir Khan and Akshay Kumar, and called the latter a fitness freak. He then said that as compared to Akshay, Aamir hasn't dedicated his life to fitness, and said there is something fishy about his change.
Highlighting the age at which Aamir achieved this body; Ranveer claimed that if it was easy for 51-year-old to do it, there would be more on the streets flaunting amazing physique. Ranveer said that he doesn't mean to de-motivate people but wished to educate them about steroids.
Check the video and decide for yourself if you agree with Ranveer or no:

Thirteen years ago, Eli went on a summer trip with his mother and never came back. Now, existing in a new life as Jacob Somerville, he's again running from fear and memories, only to end up where he started. As Jacob struggles to reconnect with his father and brothers, he realizes that his lover, Craig Zhao, was the only thing filling his empty heart and standing between him and ghosts of the past. It will take the power of love - from his family, from Craig, and from himself - for Jacob to see that his life truly is filled with the promise of what can be.
A novella from the Dreamspinner Press 2011 Advent Calendar package I'll Be Home for Christmas
©2011 Mary Calmes (P)2016 Dreamspinner Press
"Emotion packed novella"
I love that there's quite a bit of emotion packed into this novella and that it also includes a sprinkling of angst and some heated sexy times. If I have one complaint it's that I would have liked for the end to have been fleshed out a bit more, but that's more about me being greedy and wanting more of these characters than anything else.
Please note: This is classic Calmes - where the main character - Eli/Jake - is beautiful and beloved by all, and...well if you're a Calmes fan you know how it goes. Just sayin'.
Robert Nieman is a new to me narrator. I enjoyed his style; he was really good at conveying the emotional depth of the story and characters and he brought out the angst of the storyline without making it a caricature.
I'm a bit bummed that he didn't really do character voices, which would usually worry me, but he delineated enough in his tone that I wasn't confused when multiple characters were conversing. Sure, I would have preferred a bit more on that end, but it didn't diminish my enjoyment of the narration on a whole.
All in all I enjoyed it and wouldn't hesitate to recommend.
"-shaky sigh- Just a Beautiful Story"
"When love trumps passion, you knew you were with the right guy."
This tale of loss and found is exactly how I need and want my romances to be. I mean I sighed, I actually freakin' sighed with this feeling of 'everything is right in the world' once the last word was spoken and that short music theme that reminds you you've just listened to a Mary Calmes tales.
This story lovely, heartbreaking tale of Jake/Eli love loss and found had the exact amount of emotion, love, self loathing, understanding the true meaning of true love (my god, Eli's mom, I can't even imagine), and acceptance. Robert Nieman was perfection in his narration of this story for me. -sniff...sniff- I think I fell in love with his voice a little bit. 💖
"dramatic and emotionally draining story"
What I don't like, the way Eli refuses to talk about his past is a tad too long after several chapters. Plus, I have to admit that the story is a bit melodramatic.
Not my favorite from Mary Calmes . Too much randomness and everything was too convenient.
"Not her best but I enjoyed it"
This is a fun quick listen to book when you just need to close your eyes and relax. Too short to really get too involved with.
If you haven't read/ listen to this authors books... keep buying. While this story is short and sort of fluffy this is one of the most talented MM authors out there. She had several series that are on my must buy/ listen to list. I actually own most everything in book kindle and audible format.
"Good short"
Disclaimer – The back story that Jacob (Eli) tells the family is a hard one to hear. Involving violence towards him at a young age and his mother.
This two and half hour audio has a lot to offer us. The healing of time and love as well as family and understanding.
We have a lot going on in the couple of days this is set over.
Jacob, has been living a false existence ever since is mother took him away all those years ago. And because of that he refusing to let anyone get close to him.
Until Craig steps in and starts getting too close for comfort, so Jacob runs. Problem is running causes more issues than first thought.
Craig and Jacob are clearly made for each other, and it takes the patients that Craig has to show Jacob that finally, finally he can stop.
I did enjoy this fast story, filled will enough info that I didn't feel anything was lacking when it was done. The only thing, is I think it may be part of a bigger series? I kept thinking, I'm missing a bigger story, bigger picture I'm not aware of?
But that aside, these two clearly deserve the HEA that they get in the end.
Narrator did a fine job keeping up with different characters
"A darker side to Mary good narration"
Eli/Jake has a reason to go home, but he's scared. He doesn't know who he is now. He's run all his life and now he can't decide the next step, so he cuts all ties, even though he has a happy life and love in Chicago.
Craig won't accept that Jake wants out. He knows Jake. Knows all his secrets. Knows he needs Craig's help.
When Eli/Jake finally faces his family after 13 years of absence, there's a chance he could lose it all, or finally be free.
This is a no-holds-barred emotional read. Eli's past is harsh and the love that he shares with Craig is special.
It was hard reading about what happened, and so many times I was tempted to rush to the end to see what he's hiding, but the way it's laid out is perfect – of course – it's Mary!
Craig and Eli/Jake are a wonderful couple and I wish we'd gotten more of their story – but I almost think it would have been even more painful to have it drawn out. Seeing this – the pinnacle moment – was hard enough.
I love all of Mary's work, and this is one of her more dark stories, showing us her breadth of talent.
I highly recommend this and the author, in this case, especially if you are in the mood for a happy ending but a darker story.
Robert Nieman is a favorite narrator of mine. He always has impeccable timing and gives depth and emotion to his performance, I wish he'd do a bit more with accents and such to make the characters stand out more, but I always knew who was talking, etc.
He's very easy to listen to and I think he added to the overall enjoyment of this audiobook.
Overall 4.5 of 5 stars
"Wished it was longer!"
I really enjoyed the story, but I wished that it was longer with more character development as I would have liked to meet more of the people in Jake's and Craig's life.
I would recommend this as it was a fun read and I always enjoy this author's work.
The narrator did a wonderful job of bringing life and sound to the written word. Thank you!

The 50,000 men whose lives were lost during the D-Day landings were remembered with a poignant poppy drop into the sea at Hunstanton on Sunday.
An estimated 3,000 to 4,000 people went along to the town to support the 1940s day, which raised £2,500 for the Royal Anglian Benevolent Fund.
A pilot from Fenland Aero Club dropped the poppies but unfortunately was 200 yards out due to a communications problem on the beach.
Highlights of the day also included a flypast by the Dakota along with 35 military vehicles, including a tank.
Performances were also given by the Peterborough Highland Band.
Organiser Harold Payne was thrilled with the event's success.
He said: "It was a beautiful day and the atmosphere was fantastic."
Mr Payne will be running a free military and vintage vehicle rally at the Anglia Motel in Holbeach on Saturday and Sunday, July 5 and 6.
