Las Vegas, NV (PressExposure) April 18, 2011 -- FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Arab-American developer Sean Mikhail has created a new app for the iPhone and iPod Touch. Doumbek Master allows users to play the doumbek drum, the signature instrument of the Middle East. Doumbek Master gives users around the world a chance to connect intimately with Arab culture through music, and an opportunity to better understand the magnificent culture behind the recent political rebellions in the Middle East. Doumbek Master not only has the power to keep users entertained, but also to invite them to better understand what is happening behind the news channels on the television screen.
Doumbek Master gives users a doumbek drum to play, along with music from their iPod Library. This app is truly authentic, with sounds recorded off a real Egyptian-imported doumbek drum. The app contains backgrounds and animation traditional to the Middle East, but also inviting to other users around the world. Important to Doumbek Master is the ability to play the versatile drum along with a song from the user's iPod Library. This allows the user to not only see, feel, and hear the incredible doumbek, but also connect it with other worldly styles of music. The harmonizing of Middle Eastern and other cultures makes Doumbek Master a must-have for the music fan.
This app was released in the midst of rebellion in the Middle East. Countless numbers of people around the world have seen the crises, violence, and uprising in the Arab World. Now, iPhone and iPod Touch users can gain an understanding of Middle Eastern and Arab culture through music. Doumbek Master invites both members of the Arab World and foreign users to a taste of the culture behind what they see on the television screen.
Doumbek Master has the power not only to entertain customers, but to invite them into a whole-new culture. The Middle East is not about violence and rebellion, it is about a rich culture that has spanned thousands of years, it is about the very first civilizations on planet Earth. Back to where it all began, the Fertile Crest of the Middle East gave rise to all of the modern nations around the world. Doumbek Master allows those willing to try something different to dive into and indulge in this opportunity to engage Arabic culture through the iPhone and iPod Touch.
iPhone and iPod Touch users must join the tens of thousands of others who have enjoyed Doumbek Master. With a revolutionary new update, Doumbek Master has been changed dramatically. Reviews off the new update are 5-Star and highly positive. Doumbek Master is not just another app, it is a revolutionary new product that has the power to unite the global masses, inform them, and help them embrace an incredible new culture.

Barry Sautman, a Faculty Associate of HKUST Institute for Emerging Markets Studies, explains to the Post Magazine the competitive advantages in terms of profit margins of Chinese companies over their western counterparts in Africa.
"In mainland China, the rate of profit on construction projects is about 2 per cent, so in Zambia, Chinese companies are happy to earn 10 per cent, whereas Western firms want 30 or 40 per cent," says Barry Sautman, professor of social sciences at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, who specialises in Sino-African relations.

BRUNSWICK - The Lady Mustangs volleyball team gained valuable experience at a tournament Saturday in Brunswick.
They played six games, allowing them a taste of what the area and state tournaments will be like, and were able to see many area competitors, including Lee County, Glynn Academy and Brunswick, play.
The Mustangs were seeded third after pool play. They lost to St. Vincent's, defeated Ware County and tied with Savannah Arts Academy.
In bracket play, losses to Camden County and Brunswick ended the Mustangs' tournament.
After getting a look at the Mustangs' area competition, Harris said he knows the Mustangs have their work cut out for them.
"To be as successful as we have been we're going to have to work harder than we have in the past," Harris said.

Published on 6 February 2014 by
We always have to ask ourselves "who" and for the exact time and date also "when", but asking "where" most of the time isn't subject of debate anymore… "probably at Betsson". Because every time a major Netent jackpot is won there's an estimated chance of about 85% it was a Betsson player who left everybody else wondering: "why not me?". So was the case about 12 days ago, when again a lucky Betsson subscriber hit the Mega jackpot of Netent jackpot video slot Mega Fortune, winning a considerable amount of money, € 658.148 to be exact. The scoop: the gamer did so by playing on video slot Mega Fortune Touch, the mobile playable version of the famous record holding Netent jackpot slot.
And that's even for Betsson a "first" and the joyful fact can be added to the long list of historical Netent jackpot wins, that's probably on display in the lobby of the Ta'Xbiex, Malta headquarters of the renowned online casino. Even Net Entertainment commented on the win by stating: "Mega Fortune Touch launched at the end of last year, and considering the high volume of players on this version, it's great we can already congratulate the very first winner, and Betsson for this achievement.".
At this moment the jackpot of video slot Mega Fortune, by the way winnable on both its desktop as well as its mobile Netent Touch version, is increasing again and at this moment holds almost € 800.000 to be won. Statistically the Mega Jackpot of the game must reach staggering heights the coming months as it was won 3 times in only 6 weeks lately, while normally it has an average payout time of about 13 – 15 weeks.
The "other one", being of course Netent jackpot video slot Hall of Gods that also accumulates millions of euros holding jackpots, at this moment is our favorite, as it has more than € 2,5 million waiting for a lucky winner.
The last jackpot we need to mention in this update is the one produced by video slot Arabian Nights. As you probably know this jackpot can be accumulated locally or by the Netent Network and the latter version has over € 3 million to be won. If you want to try to win a local generated jackpot of video slot Arabian Nights it's best to pay a visit to Paf Casino as the Arabian Nights jackpot over there also has reached over € 3 million to be won.
For more details about either jackpot video slot Mega Fortune, video slot Hall of Gods or video slot Arabian Nights you can follow their respective links to visit their dedicated pages we've recently added to our guide FYJI (for your jackpot information). Check it out!

Minster FM News
Bonfire Night Advice For Pet Owners in North Yorkshire
6:00am 3rd November 2013
One of the biggest firework displays in the UK is on tonight. Kaboom will be launched into the skies above York at Rawcliffe Country Park, (Sunday, November 3rd, 2013) cascading its colourful display a quarter of a mile across.
But while people at the event will be having fun, Kaboom are reminding pet owners to keep their animals safe this bonfire night. They've teamed up with Minster Veterinary Practice who is giving advice to those who are worried that their pets will get scared.
Veterinary nurse Sally Whitehead from the practice says the most important thing to do is to stay calm yourself.
Here are Sally's top tips for pet owners:
Bring your pet indoors, even if you have a fenced garden. If you can't bring your pet inside because they live in a hutch, think about covering it with something like a piece of carpet to block out some of the noise. Keep your cats inside.
If you have a dog, keep it on a lead if you are taking it for a walk. If your dog is timid or scared, or if he tends to love people a little too much, put him in a separate room away from the front door. This will limit his excitement, aggression or chance of running outside and getting lost or injured.
Reassure your pets but don't overdo it. Keep calm. If they seem to feel unsettled by fireworks, just act as normally as possible. By over-reassuring your pet or giving it extra attention, you inadvertently can communicate to it that there must be something to worry about.
Turn the TV on and turn the sound up.
You can make a den for your pet or add extra bedding for hamsters, rabbits or guinea pigs to burrow into.
Check your pet is chipped or is wearing an ID Tag. Be sure identification tags are secure on your pet's collar-just in case.
For more information visit http://www.minstervets.co.uk/
Kaboom will be launching a giant firework at the end of its display, will be visible from up to seven miles away on a clear night.
Mark Brayshaw, from Rockin' Horse Promotions, organisers of Kaboom commented: "Our theme for Kaboom this year is Science Fiction and Superheroes, so we wanted to end the show with the Superhero of the firework world. This rocket, developed in China, represents the most advanced pyrotechnics available to us.
"It will blast into the skies and explode with a sonic boom. Watching crowds can also experience its effect in 3D. By wearing special glasses designed to refract light at this year's show, the audience will feel like they are in the middle of the firework as it showers above them."
Tickets must be purchased in advance via www.kaboomyork.com or at the Visit York Information Centre, Museum Street, York.

Congressman Tom Reed held a round table of financial aid representatives from eight Western New York colleges this morning at Finger Lakes Community College. Today's meeting follows one Reed organized with 11 Western New York college and university presidents and leaders held at Elmira College earlier this week. The forums were focused on the cost of higher education, how to make college more affordable, and the difficulty entering the job market for recent college graduates.
"Unemployment in New York is above nine percent," Reed observed. "The resulting pressure on family finances is making it more difficult for many potential students to obtain a higher education within their means," Reed observed. "Colleges are being impacted by the struggling economy much more than many realize," Reed commented. "What I heard in these meetings is that the cost of doing business for colleges -- from community colleges to major universities -- is rising rapidly. Facility maintenance, utility costs, food service costs, and regulatory and compliance costs are all negatively impacting their ability to offer an affordable college education."
"This is another reason why we need to get government out of the way and provide tax and regulatory certainty so that businesses can invest in new career opportunities," Reed continued. "This will decrease the financial pressure on families and students and allow them to better afford a higher education. Increased economic activity means that more students will have the means to go to college."
The meetings are the beginning of a long-term education initiative in Reed's office. Institutions represented at one or both of the meetings included Alfred University, Cornell University, Corning Community College, Elmira College, Finger Lakes Community College, Houghton College, Ithaca College, Monroe Community College, Rochester Institute of Technology, University of Rochester, St. Bonaventure University and SUNY-Fredonia.

Re: KDE 12 4.7.4 upgrade
As I understand it the backports ppa only has packages for precise and quantal. Since you are not running either one, nothing will be picked up. Also I think the backports ppa is in the 4.4.9x category not 4.4.8x.

Re: KDE 12 4.7.4 upgrade
Ah! So I have no way of upgrading KDE from 4.7.4 in Mint12? Other than upgrading fo a later version of mint?
Re: KDE 12 4.7.4 upgrade
Well, if you want to take a chance you can alter the kubuntu backports on your distro to say precise or quantal. This can be done through synaptic or the command line. If you open synaptic and look at the repositories, I would guess yours says oneiric for kubuntu backports. If you change this to say precise and update then you would update to what KDE version is in the precise backports. You can go to https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/backports to see what is there

There's Sonic 1 design documents in it that I don't think have appeared anywhere online before, alongside concept art and interviews with lead Sonic staff (Yuji Naka, Naoto Oshima, Akira Nishino, Kazuyuki Hoshino) and a brief description of four of Sonic 1's levels, as they were originally envisioned. I think the book's great, and I'm really supportive of the people behind it, so I've got no personal interest in devaluing it by putting all the best bits online, but here's a hastily taken photo of Sonic 1's original ending storyboard from the design documents.

I really wonder at what point the team decided to scrap everything, because it really looks like they had a lot planned and, according to that one beta screenshot, actually executed, before they changed absolutely everything and formed what we got in 91 onwards.
And like Machenstein said, oddly it seems Sonic was goinf down a route closer to what we'd see with the TV show, complete with out of place characters. ._.

As you can see, the rest of the band are identifiable below waiting for Sonic once he lands, and when Chirps and Sonic join them, it completes the band. The rabbit's on the left, Vector in the middle facing left, and the Monkey waving him down on the right. There's a tonne of little animals dotting the area too.
The design on the 5th slide matches that of Chirps, and there's no reason to suggest it could be any other character either.
Make note that as this is a sketch, all of the characters are quickly drawn with less features and less emphasis on proportions.
I have the book, and it's quite clear in there too. />

DOE Strategic Plan
The U.S. Department of Energy recently released its 2011Strategic Plan (3.46MB - PDF), a comprehensive blueprint to guide the agency's core mission of ensuring America's security and prosperity by addressing its energy, environmental, and nuclear challenges through transformative science and technology solutions.
The plan states, as part of the DOE effort to assure excellence in R&D management, project success should be measured when scientific and technical information is disseminated.
From the plan:
Disseminate our Results: "Our success should be measured not when a project is completed or an experiment concluded, but when scientific and technical information is disseminated. Beyond broad availability of technical reports, e-prints and multimedia, and publication in peer-reviewed journals, open access to experimental data and analysis codes is increasingly important in policy-relevant research areas. The Department will establish guidelines for use with both grants and contracts to ensure appropriate access to, and retention of, scientific data and analysis methods. In more applied areas, knowledge of what did not work can be of equal value with positive results, for that can prevent the misapplication of significant private resources. The Department will therefore encourage the documentation and archiving of negative results from all its performers using the most advanced informatics tools."

A Full Bench of the Fair Work Commission has narrowly interpreted the meaning of being "at work" for the purposes of the workplace bullying jurisdiction under the Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth) (FW Act).
Implications for employers
This is another important clarification on the scope of the workplace bullying jurisdiction under the FW Act. Whilst the Full Bench has interpreted the meaning of "at work" narrowly, employers should remain mindful that bullying conduct that has a substantial connection to work (but does not occur "at work") will continue to be captured under discrimination legislation and most workplace bullying policies.
Three employees of DP World Melbourne Limited (DP World) applied to the Fair Work Commission for orders against existing and former employees of DP World, members of the Maritime Union of Australia (MUA) and/or officials of the MUA, to stop bullying.
Section 789FD of the FW Act provides that a worker is bullied at work if while the worker is at work an individual(s) repeatedly behaves unreasonably towards the worker and that behaviour creates a risk to health and safety. DP World and the MUA sought to strike out certain allegations on the basis that the alleged bullying conduct did not occur "at work" within the meaning of section 789FD of the FW Act. For example, DP World and the MUA contended that the following allegations should be struck out:
- various Facebook posts made by employees of DP World who are members of the MUA, and by MUA officials, containing various unreasonable and insulting allegations and comparisons of two of the Applicants;
- that during the course of a union meeting that was conducted in facilities made available to the MUA, the MUA official suggested that one of the Applicants had acted wrongly and should be ostracised from the group; and
- that an employee of DP World and member of the MUA had described one of the Applicant's as a 'scab' in a telephone conversation with another DP World employee.
As the meaning of "bullied at work" was considered central to the operation of the workplace bullying provisions under the FW Act, the matter was referred to a Full Bench of the Fair Work Commission for determination.
The Full Bench dismissed the strike out application and remitted the matter to Deputy President Gostencnik to hear the evidence about the alleged bullying conduct and to determine the extent to which the proceedings were to be confined (if at all).
The Full Bench clarified that the meaning of the words "while the worker is at work", and particularly the words "at work" were in contention in these proceedings. The Full Bench rejected the Applicants' submission that conduct occurs "at work" if it has a substantial connection to work. Rather, the Full Bench held that the concept of being "at work" encompasses circumstances in which the alleged bullying conduct occurs when the worker is performing work (at any time or location) and when the worker is engaged in some other employer authorised activity (such as being on a meal break or accessing social media while performing work).
The Full Bench also recognised that particular challenges arise when social media is being used to engage in bullying conduct. For example, with respect to unreasonable behaviour manifested through Facebook posts, the Full Bench stated that workers do not need to be "at work" when the comments are posted but they could access the comments later while "at work". The Full Bench acknowledged that such an interpretation may give rise to arbitrary, but unavoidable, results where for example, bullying does not fall within the scope of the FW Act because workers only access the Facebook comments when they are not "at work".
The Full Bench warned that a cautious approach should be adopted in interpreting the meaning of "at work" as bullying manifests in a diversity of circumstances and as such, the meaning should be developed on a case by case basis.

The actor has begun filming for Yash Raj Films next production 'Fan' to be directed by Maneesh Sharma.

Responsible associate professor of Hankuk Regional Studies University (South Korea) Rovshan Ibrahimov answers the questions of Oxu.az.
Hundreds of injured and arrested were recorded after police broke up the demonstration of protesters campaigning against rising electricity prices. Meanwhile, foreign human rights organizations do not criticize Armenian authorities as it happens in case with Azerbaijan. How do you explain this attitude?
I do not have data and information regarding the reaction of various kinds of Western human rights organizations on the events taking place at the moment in Armenia. As for the detainees, there is no information about their current situation, it is difficult to analyze, drawing parallels. On the other hand there is a clear systematic campaign against Azerbaijan. It is well planned, conducted with one or more centers and used to form a tool of pressure on Azerbaijan. In general, I am sure that the West, representatives of Western governments, and organizations themselves, are not quite sure what they are willing to get from Azerbaijan. Undoubtedly, in the first place this is due to "minority opinion" of Azerbaijan in foreign policy and national security, and the ability of pursuing its own line. These governments and organizations do not realize that Azerbaijan warns against unwanted processes that occurred in Georgia (partial recognition of its territories as independent states) and in Ukraine (the loss of the territory and separatism in the east of the country). West is not aware of its responsibility for the events that took place in these countries, and pushes Azerbaijan to actions that may lead to similar results, like in Ukraine and Georgia. Azerbaijan can not afford this. As a consequence, there is a "blind stubbornness" of the West, in order to achieve the final goal, without any strategic analysis and the formation of the aims, which ultimately may have a very high price for Azerbaijan.
By the way, it is not the first time that the Western community shows a very loyal attitude towards Armenia. During the March 2008 events in Yerevan, the police even killed several people, but the Armenian authorities got away with it. At the same time, Azerbaijan is a constant object of severe criticism. Do you think it is a particular indicator of (loyal) attitude towards Armenia or special (negative) attitude towards Azerbaijan?
I can add to the above mentioned that the West does not consider Armenia subconsciously as a subject of international relations, capable of independent action. Here all events are considered as part of Armenia's dependence on Russia, and although this provision logically must face the harsh reaction from the West, in fact, it is quite the opposite. West understands the "heavy" and vassal state of Armenia. Personal sympathy (for various reasons) of Western politicians to Armenia and Armenians is not on the last place.
How much is Sargsyan's regime stable in terms of inner unrests?
Sargsyan regime is stable as long as Russia would take its governor in Armenia as an optimal figure for the realization of its own interests in this country. However, there is a possibility that the protests in Armenia may acquire irrevocable character, in this case, in view of the weak state and institutions of Armenia, Sargsyan simply would not be able to hold a power. It is difficult to analyze the social protests that have special abilities to destroy, without offering alternatives. This is what we have seen in countries affected by the consequences of the "Arab Spring", where the former authorities were overthrown, and alternatives were not proposed. I think that Russia does not want such a development, if it occurs beyond Russia's will, it will try to find a replacement for the current leadership of the country. Otherwise, most likely, Armenia will expect chaos.
May events in Armenia have a destabilizing effect on the already troubled situation in the South Caucasus? For example, add additional tension in Karabakh?
Basing on the experience of previous events in Armenia, the power in the country can contribute to the next escalation in the front line in order to move the focus of the protesters from the social problems to the "external threat". Therefore, all sorts of diversions from the Armenian side on the front line are quite possible.

The location of this hotel is excellent, just around 8 - 10 mins walk from the Amsterdam Centraal Station and the surrounding area is full of restaurants, cafes, shops, travel agents/ tour operators, places of interest and hence it is always beaming with activities. There is also a tram station located nearby. Having said all that, the hotel is therefore very conveniently located and serves as a good base to explore the rest of the city. The Dam square is also not that far.The receptionists working at the hotel were all friendly and professional and always willing to help. Wi-fi connection is great too.
The downside of this hotel is that the rooms are a bit too small and you will feel it even more if you have luggages with you. The stairs are also a bit steep and you need to be extra careful when carrying a big bag up since there is no elevator in this hotel. The toilet was fine and clean.
All in all the hotel is just basic with the right amenities and facilities for a short city stay and ideally located to explore the rest of the city.

Agyness Deyn, Lara Stone, Rory Greer and Rogier Bosschaart in "Super Mods Enter Rehab" by Steven Meisel for Vogue Italia July 2007
"My favorite [editorials] are the ones that allow me to say something … the mental institution one; the ones that I have a minute to think about; all the ones that are the most controversial in fact. But it's not because they are controversial that I like them, but because they say a little more than just a beautiful woman in a beautiful dress. I love that too, but to try and say something is also my goal."

If the colour or size you want is not showing, we are probably out of stock. Email or call us on 0800 122 682 to find out when they will be here or to place a backorder.
Our Trade Supertrouser is a kind of a hybrid lovechild of the ultra tough HD Dreadnought and super stylish Supertrousers with a little bit of Utility Vest thrown in for good measure. This makes the Trade Supertrousers a true, fully featured gear for those whose work demands tough pants and pockets.
Never reach for a tool that isn't there with dedicated pockets for a cellphone, ruler, and punches or measuring tape and reinforced hammer loops stand out for easy use. Crouching with full pockets is no problem - the main pockets at the waist are external so the contents displace away from your body, and they are tough enough for a handful of nails or screws occasionally (nothing we can do about the hedgehog effect though). Two full size pockets at the back give you a place for that piece of paper with your hardware shop list and tax receipts.
If you're worried about wearing out knees, on you or your trousers, the reinforced, padded knees of the Trade Plus Supertrousers will make your work easier. If you like to feel the breeze around your knees, check out our Trade Shorts.
The Black colour is a lighter tighter woven fabric (8oz C-Canvas), whereas the Antelope (dark chocolate brown), Moss (light olive green) and Ocean (mid blue) are all heavier 12oz.
NEW UPDATES: Larger cellphone pocket (fits an Iphone 7+ and a Galaxy Note S7), and 2 hammer loops.
- Super durable and highly wearable 12oz (Antelope, Moss, Ocean) or 8oz (Black) C-Canvas
- Your tools and other essentials are within reach with cellphone, ruler and measure pockets and two hammer loops
- For everything else roomy external main pockets are durable and easy to access
- Wide belt loops for utility belts
- The details that matter, bar tacked stress points and YKK zips
- Construction backed by a lifetime warranty on materials and workmanship
- Colours: Antelope, Slate, Olive, Ocean (12oz) and Black (8oz)
- Weight: 900 grams (Large)
- Fabrics: Proofed 12oz or 8oz C-Canvas
- Use mild detergent or pure soap (preferably one that's nice to the earth)
- Our canvas has a water resistant coating which can shift and discolour through the initial break in period
- For best results handwash until the garment is broken in. Machine washing is fine after this
- Washing inside out will minimise lighter coloured creases on the outside of the fabric, but won't remove stains quite as well
- Drip dry without creases (it won't take long as the polyester in the fabric doesn't hold much water)
- Close zips while washing (they'll last longer)
- If you slip with the saw and cut your trousers up, send them back and we'll fix them for you for a small fee (we're not so good at fixing legs!)
- If you are still not sure, give us a call or flick us an email
If you are long in the leg and think you need longer Trade Supertrousers then you need Trade Supertrousers Extra Long
If you are short in the leg and would like these hemmed then you need to add Hem Shorter to this order.
Custom Length
- Custom leg lengths are available from -10cm shorter to +10cm longer.
- The leg lengths of the standard Supertrousers fit 95% of people just fine, but for those of you who need them longer or shorter we can customise.
- If you would like your Supertrousers hemmed to be shorter then you need to add Hem Shorter to this order where you can specify the length.
For longer Supertrousers you need to go to Trade Supertrousers Extra Long and then specify your length in Hem Longer.
- Please note that custom length shorts and trousers cannot be returned so please choose and measure carefully - call or email us if you are not sure.
- Good luck ripping themReview by Leighton
- "Oh sh*t, I just ripped my Supertrousers!!" - said nobody ever. These things are outrageous. While wearing mine I've smashed my way through gorse, fallen down a rocky cliff that ripped everything else I was wearing and knelt in all sorts of horrible crap. Nothing stained them or came close to scratching them!! Epic! (Posted on 14/07/15)

- From old website: I have been wearing these pants non stop since I got them! My old standard supertrousers have been through everything but i was always wishing for bigger pockets and the Trade pant delivers! When they are too dirty to wear to town I will hose them off and hang em out to dry and they are ready to go! Thanks for the great product, you guys rock! (Posted on 16/10/14)

What is the perfect PR personality?
31st October 2012
Are you really cut out for a career in PR? There are some people who are made for this business, and they share certain characteristics. Through her work, Jeni Beattie, director at Accolade Media Training, believes she has pinpointed what these are: "The ideal personality type for anyone working in PR is the "open" type. Based on the Five Factor Model (FFM) this sort of person is curious, inventive, positive, quick to grasp new ideas, and is also a good listener. If you don't listen carefully, you will never find the right answers. If you aren't creative, you won't be able to come up with good solutions. And if you cannot grasp new ideas, such as the rapid advances in digital media, it might be better to find another career!"
Beattie says there are two further characteristics that are vital – empathy with your audience and dedication: "You need to prepare answers to the questions your audience will ask, not simply regurgitate the information that the company would like to transmit. And dedication to be analytical and to plan efficiently. If you are well-prepared, and have fantasised about your worst nightmares, there will always be a Plan B. If things go horribly wrong, there should be a smooth transition to Plan B – bringing appreciation from the CEO. Nothing is worse than the slow switch from A to J plans as demonstrated by the BBC recently over the Savile/Newsnight debacle."
Other attributes that are key, according to Rachel Knight, account director at PR agency Maxim, are patience, tact and the ability to keep calm. She adds: "You need to be able to get on with a huge variety of people, be a great multi-tasker and be able to switch from selling in the latest product to advising a client on a potential PR disaster at the drop of a hat."
In Knight's view it is unlikely that one person can be brilliant at everything, so ideally, PR teams should have a good mix of personalities: "When we're thinking about who should work with a client, it's not just their skills that we consider but also whether the key personnel will get on together. "
Because it is so centred on communications, it is not surprising that PR tends to attract sociable people. However, Stuart Disbrey, an in-house communications manager in the energy sector, says in today's economic climate, PROs must be commercially minded: "I think PR still to some extent, kids itself that it's a special case 'people business' which attracts 'people people'. That may be so, but in the economic downturn I think the focus has become far less on long lunches and far more on the bottom line, particularly on the agency side.
"In the 21st century PR is a 'business business' much like any other. It has had to grow up a lot and PR practitioners who want to get on have had to grow up with it. You can be as good as you like at pressing the flesh, but if you can't make the right hard-nosed business decisions, I think your days may be numbered. Whether that will change now that we are officially out of recession remains to be seen – but I doubt it."
What are the key character traits of a good PRO?
Samantha Howard, freelance communications consultant:
"I'd say there's a soul role for all of us in PR. Left brain/right brain, big thinkers/happy doers. From the research and planning tacticians; to the relationships builders, the brand advocates, the cheer leaders; From the big picture thinkers, the strategists, the creatives; to the analysers, asking all the 'what ifs' that underscore credible crisis communication plans. You have to understand what you're best at and find a role that lets you be it. Unless of course if you're a freelancer than you have to be good at all of it."
David Alexander, managing director of agency Calacus Public Relations:
"With so many varying types of PR account, from consumer to corporate, campaigning to charity, there are a range of requirements that suit most personalities. But if you're easily disheartened by rejection or lack the initiative to find different ways of solving problems, PR may not be for you."

Hahahaha ... I think that depends on what is meant by "as well as you know yourself", but I do have a few "brothers" that I have known for 30 years or so, and we can depend on each other emotionally as they are just a phone call or Skype away, but we cannot be here or there as they are too far away ...
Does that count though?
"and you know she or he will be there when you need them"
thats just the biggest expectation in a relationship.
I'm gonna watch this chick flick tonight... lol....
I agree with Constantine's second post. It is not possible if both people are attracted to eachother. As long as the girl is not attractive, I don't see any barrier to true friendships. But if she is, why wouldn't I want to have sex with her?
I can have pure friendship with a guy only he is
Otherwise, it is like a volcano.... it's gonna erupt sooner or later....
Bridget, people hide the feelings because they can't get with the girl/guy. That is no different from USA. But, in the case where the two people are attracted to eachother, the relationship will probably always involve sex unless both the man and woman already have partners.
Agree! We are animals.... It's all about finding the right hormon...
agree with u guys, if there is atractiion, sooner or later, with the help of the alcohol in a party or without it, will happen something. Is a old story... but the persons are attracted for different things, right?... if a guy can have sex with a plastic doll, can be able to have a friendship with a woman??
i mean, I do not think that be ugly is a condition for develop a real friendship with a person of opposite sex, beauty doesn´t imply sexual attraction, at least beyond the times of highschool.
"i think there's really no pure friendship between a man and a girl~~the closer, the more complicated."
I disagree. I have extremely close friendship with some girls, even very beautiful ones. But, that is because we have reasons not to be attracted to eachother, such as both being in relationships when we became friends. It just depends on attraction.
It depends on one's level of attainment; certainly you can have a trusted opposit sex friend.
You may not be that close of sleeping on same bed every night but you could do businesses together, share your feelings, get reasonable advice from one another, could be extended to ur families. I see nothing wrong with that. Its all about self discipline. Life does not begin and end with sex
Impossible is nothing.
I have more close female friends than close male friends. I tend to treat my partners no better or worse than the platonic friendships. I don't see what's so difficult about this.
Yeah, how is this even a debate or problem for...I don't know, anyone? OH GOD THEY HAVE A DIFFERENT PART BETWEEN THEIR LEGS HOW CAN WE BE NORMAL FRIENDS. I actually have no idea what any of you are even talking about by this point.
my best friend is a guy. i'd trust him with anything. i tell him everything. whatever he asked of me, i'd try not to refuse (no, not talking sexual favours here, you asshats)
part of what makes our friendship so great is that i know i can be 100% honest and say anything on my mind (whether it's about him or anything else), and he will accept it. i'd like to think that he feels the same about me
if any guy i liked couldn't accept my friendship with him, they wouldn't have a chance. my friendships come first, because the ones i hold close to my heart become a part of my family.
Ekki, is your friend either A) not handsome, B) an ex-lover, or C) in a relationship?
Otherwise, why aren't you hooking up?
Hahaha. 纯爷儿们好!Although actually, I don't know if I could even drink one bottle of 二锅头 anymore, let alone five. I'm getting old or something. Rock shows are good though.
A lot of my closest friends both in the States and elsewhere have been ladies. They just listen more better, ya know? And they value other people that not only listen, but have interesting things to say back to them. I'm also very humble, and I work out every day. YEAP.
Hey Mike, what will be the next time your band play? I'd love to watch sometime.
The next time my band will play...that would be never. No, we still need a 2nd guitarist and a singer. Watch for 危机 to start burning up stages near you sometime in late spring/early summer. Maybe. Hopefully. Probably!
Whatever. Do you have problem with it @ GodFatherrrrrr ... ?
I don't wanna involve any of this sarcasm shit..not in a mood...
Leave me alone..
I never said I could rap good
But I can still blow it up in your 'hood
Think I made it out of Harvard 大学?
My bad - you can't read simple Chinese, eh?
Forget about it, don't wanna cause any butthurt
You insult yourself well enough - my time, it ain't worth
And I'm out.
What, Mike is actually DeMoya back from the dead?
By the way, that bastard is officially dead since he didn't accept my facebook request. Doesn't matter that other people have talked to him recently - he's dead.
I wish I would've bookmarked that shit. His rhymes were golden. I don't know if I'm qualified to fill his shoes, but who is?
i'm so glad he called you a rapper and not a raper.
I'll take "Therapist" for $100, Alex.
he's a raper, man can he rape.
Hahahaha ... 莫明 ... "DeMoya"? An evolved version of DeMola? Being who he is (or was), I think his next "form" should be "DeMole" instead? ... or, could he have come back already and currently possess one of these names on the forum?
... and people, you have completely turned this into a anal-pressure-release session, instead of what Ami wanted to talk about ...
yes,best friend,opposite gender,i witnessed this kind of thing,but i believe it's rare.and it's so hard for the gf to deal with this.and sometimes fights happened because of it
even if my best friend was a girl there will always be a chance we'd get into bed.
so the answer is no.
plutonic friends don't except except pre-revolutionary times ;)
Phil, I think you totally missed the point. You're talking about being friends with someone who has a boyfriend, and thus should clearly not be interested in you. Of course those relationships are common.
Harmonious, the "friends of boyfriends" who seem like good friends are more often than not just horrible friends to the boyfriend, and will be trying to jump on you as soon as you and boyfriend have a fight. I expect my guy friends to be casual friends with my girlfriend, but there is something really wrong if they start calling her all the time.
well... i will tell you more later...a bit drunk now but thumbs up for Afroman ...men understand men and women understand women!!! bottom line!
agree with John Constantine and Ms. Stephanie,
also depend how deeply the friendship is , i only have one with who talk every thing share everything , it's beautiful , it's pure and keep for life coz he's a gay
if a best friend for girl opposite , gay should bethe best choice, coz they inteligent brave sensible understand women and open and they have the same statu or identity problem with woman in this morden society morden world ,
PS : they like mans too and they are more sincere to women they don't lagut at woman's weakness and they always their best supporters
people can be mature in anyway but how face with their real heat it's another thing
go through that link... you will get better i think..!!!! lets get it started!!!
"... this sort of thing is often the preserve of people who are emotionally immature, if not always young in years... if you're not into a relationship enough to do it publicly, you probably shouldn't mess about." Because is someone who sleeps with you on a regular basis but is too ashamed to admit it really a friend? Or just kind of a sexy jerk you hang out with? Sam has sworn to never do it again; to only have casual sex with strangers. "Go to a bar!" he says, "There are lots of [people] there!" Which, oddly enough, may just be the more salubrious choice.
Sounds like ONS is healthier than FWB...
@Ami ...not at all!!!!...ejoney commenting!!! hahaha

Windowlicker Trailer (1999)
23 February 1999 Horror, Music 11 mins
Two stereotypical gangster wannabes try to get lucky with two young women when the man himself, Aphex Twin, interrupts their crude discussion to show off his dancing skills. The women are entranced (as shown since their faces have become similar to Richard's) and follow him in his limousine to the beach. The two men watch as Aphex performs a huge dance (involving champagne and a very messed up female version of Richard) in front of them.

We've organized the modes in flowlight FS into 4 pages, and a few types of button presses to keep it easy to navigate.
- Click: 0.3 seconds or less. A quick click, like a computer-mouse click.
Multiple clicks, like a "double-click" on a computer mouse, will access different pages. You may discover this by accident, and trying to cycle through the modes too quickly can lead you to a new page or mode you've never seen!
- Press: 0.3-0.75 seconds. The classic button-press, this is what feels "normal" to most people.
A press will take you to the next mode in the same page.
- 1 click or press of the button from "off" brings you to page 1 mode 1 (p1m1).
- 2 clicks gets you to page 2. You'll see the indicator flash 2x to let you know you're now on page 2. Subsequent presses take you through the 10 modes in that page.
- 3 clicks for page 3 - the indicator flashes 3 times and you're now ready to perform. These modes are superbright, and battery life is the last thing on your mind. This page contains all the modes, with their full power unleashed. Just press the button to cycle through them, but be warned: the brightest ones may drain your battery in under an hour!
- 4 clicks for page 4 - The indicator will flash 4 times, and here you'll see your 10 most recently saved patterns (we call this page favorites). You can select from your last 10 saved patterns by pressing the button to cycle through them.
Take me home! To get back to page 1 from any other page, press the button to cycle through the modes until the light turns off. A single click or press will bring you back to the beginning: page 1 mode 1.

CAIRO - Egypt's main opposition coalition rejected on Sunday Islamist President Mohamed Morsi's plan for a constitutional referendum this week, saying it risked dragging the country into "violent confrontation."Morsi's decision on Saturday to retract a decree awarding himself wide powers failed to placate opponents who accused him of plunging Egypt deeper into crisis by refusing to postpone the vote on a constitution shaped by Islamists.

Kai Ryssdal: High-speed connections are where it's at in the Internet. Google, as we mentioned to you a couple of days ago, is working on a big broadband project. The Obama administration is spending billions of dollars to bring high-speed access to virtually every corner of the country. Today, though, the Commerce Department reported that even in places where broadband is available, not everybody wants it. Seems for all the fuss, a lot of people just aren't interested.
Marketplace's Nancy Marshall Genzer reports.
NANCY MARSHALL GENZER: Lots of us couldn't imagine life without high-speed Internet. And Congress has been spending billions so that everyone has access to it, if they want it. But the Commerce Department did a survey last fall, and found that 38 percent of the households surveyed who don't have broadband, just don't want it. Who are they?
LARRY STRICKLING: It will be older Americans, it will be less educated Americans, it will be poorer populations.
Larry Strickling heads the branch of the Commerce Department that released the data. Strickling says the government is not just focused on expanding broadband access. It's also funding programs that teach computer and Internet skills. Strickling says, today, broadband in the home is essential.
STRICKLING: If you want to apply for a job you need to be on the Internet. If children want to do their homework, they need to have broadband access. So it's very hard to be successful in today's society without this access.
Joseph Turow is a professor of communications at the University of Pennsylvania. He says seniors might be more interested in broadband if they knew that hospitals are starting to use it to monitor patients in their homes.
JOSEPH TUROW: Even having a physician in a hospital watch a nurse or an aide do a certain kind of procedure to make sure it's being done correctly.
The Commerce Department also found that people don't have broadband because it's too expensive.
Jeff Chester heads the Center for Digital Democracy. He says the government should force the big companies to rent space on their high-speed networks to smaller competitors.
JEFF CHESTER: You don't want to have a choice between A or B -- cable or phone. You want to have dozens of providers with different kinds of plans.
Chester says that would force prices down. He thinks, if the price is right, interest in broadband will suddenly pick up.
In Washington, I'm Nancy Marshall Genzer for Marketplace.

For homeowners who file bankruptcy as a way to save their homes, there is certainly often a fear of falling behind on the payments and ending up back in foreclosure with their credit scarred even further. But the vast majority of homeowners who do file a Chapter 13 bankruptcy will end up back in foreclosure if they do not work together with the right attorney and aren't prepared to meet the requirements with the legal payment strategy.
The bank, when the homeowners begin missing the mortgage payment, will start to move towards foreclosure, regardless of no matter whether or not the home is included inside the bankruptcy filing. The bank's method won't be a lot different if they're inside the Chapter 13 or have not but filed, looking for other methods to cease foreclosure first. But the particulars with the bank's pursuit of foreclosure will vary slightly if the house is included in the Chapter 13 or not. That might adjust how the bank will go about the foreclosure, but not by quite substantially.
If the home isn't in the Chapter 13 plan, then the bank will just file the foreclosure lawsuit using the county court, get a sheriff sale date, and try to sell the home to pay back the defaulted mortgage. This is pretty significantly how any bank takes a property from homeowners who're not able to make their payments. The overall structure of how foreclosure works varies from state to state, though, so homeowners should check their state foreclosure laws to learn precisely how long the takes and what options they could have to save the house with or with no bankruptcy.
But if the home is included in the Chapter 13, then as soon as the homeowners begin falling behind on payments, the bank will petition the court to have the mortgage dismissed from the bankruptcy strategy. This can be also identified as seeking a release of remain, as the remain is what automatically puts the foreclosure approach on hold. If the owners were not creating the payments, this could be fairly effortless for the bank to accomplish — the Chapter 13 is created to give people a opportunity to create the payments on time and get back on track with missed amounts during the length of the plan. If they fall behind, the creditors can have their debt removed and pursue collection activities again.
If that's the case, then the mortgage corporation would start pursuing the foreclosure approach once the automatic remain is released. They still have to follow the state foreclosure laws and county rules to be able to take the home. Nothing would adjust any of that, no matter if the house was ever involved in a bankruptcy or not. As soon as the residence is out of the bankruptcy, the lender will follow the usual procedure of taking back a property to satisfy a defaulted mortgage.
So, there is certainly just that one additional step of getting the house removed from the bankruptcy payment plan, if the homeowners consist of the house in their Chapter 13 filing. But in any case of foreclosure, the bank will need to follow the laws that dictate how the foreclosure approach will function in a specific state. And to know just how much time the homeowners have and what options they may possibly have to stop foreclosure just before or soon after bankruptcy, they are able to search on-line for their state foreclosure laws and read about several foreclosure solutions.

Toronto filmmaker John Greyson is being feted this week with a retrospective, a DVD compilation and a new book about his feature musical Zero Patience. That all this will be hosted by the TIFF Bell Lightbox shows what good sports the festival's programmers are. After all, it was just in 2009 that Greyson yanked his film from TIFF to protest an Israeli-sponsored film series – effectively setting off an international debate about sponsors' impact on programming, and supplying the festival with an unwelcome controversy.
But it's precisely that scrappy, activist approach to filmmaking that makes Greyson worthy of celebration. The director behind such features as Urinal, Lilies and Uncut, as well as recent agit-prop music videos drawing attention to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, has left an indelible impact on both international queer cinema and Canada's film culture.
Greyson's heady mash-up of postmodern theory, grassroots politics and street activism was perhaps best summed up by film scholar and author Thomas Waugh, who once described the filmmaker's style as "a convergence of techno-wizardry, dense allusiveness, camp anachronism, unabashed didacticism, melo narrative, heady eroticism and media collage."
For those of us who came of age while watching Greyson's career progress, a strange sense of nostalgia accompanies this retrospective. Many of his films and videos were a response to the gruelling, unforgiving AIDS crisis which, when at its worst, did feel akin to a Holocaust in the gay community. A stand-out in the retrospective is Zero Patience, Greyson's take-no-prisoners diatribe about the unthinking, unfeeling response of the media, governments and the scientific establishment to the AIDS epidemic.
A musical comedy about the epidemic and its fallout, Zero Patience represented New Queer Cinema, a cinematic movement roughly held together by fury over indifference to the AIDS epidemic and the desire to present less squeaky-clean images of gay characters, and Canada's film-funding policies.
Greyson's budget of $1.2-million would not have paid for pizza on most Hollywood movie sets, but it seemed substantial in Canada in the 1990s. And Greyson used the money for a tribute to the hard work of ACT UP-style activists as well as to bigger ideas. Zero Patience goes out of its way, for example, to remind us that we're actually watching a movie – eschewing the pitfalls of melodrama, which was then the genre of choice for representing AIDS. The film received polarized responses from critics upon its release – people either loved it or hated it – but you had to hand it to Greyson: Almost everything in this film was about taking risks. I sincerely doubt anyone could make a film like it today.
Zero Patience also speaks of an exciting time for Canadian filmmakers. The early 1990s were marked by the new industry buzz around Miramax Films and the Sundance Film Festival; suddenly, independent low-budget films with big ideas (in other words, the kind of films Canadians were brilliant at) could find coveted distribution deals and reach much larger international audiences. Films such as Zero Patience, Laurie Lynd's RSVP, Lynne Fernie's and Aerlyn Weissman's Forbidden Love: The Unashamed Stories of Lesbian Lives, and Patricia Rozema's I've Heard the Mermaids Singing, were gaining huge international attention, effectively raising the profile of Canadian filmmakers – as well as their hopes and aspirations.
This notoriety struck Zero Patience, which toured the burgeoning alternative and queer film-festival circuit. Always present in the film was an anger that resonated around the world; Greyson was especially furious with the mainstream media for its callous and often vapid reportage on AIDS. And while he was angry with conservative forces, he singled out the liberal journalists – some of them gay – for special venom. Openly-gay journalist Randy Shilts had penned the book And the Band Played On: Politics, People and the AIDS Epidemic, which had eviscerated the Reagan Administration for its passive indifference to the onslaught of AIDS. But Greyson took issue with what he called the book's "sexy subplot" about Gaetan Dugas, a Quebecois flight attendant who Shilts' dubbed "Patient Zero," purporting this promiscuous gay man was a modern-day Typhoid Mary who had brought HIV to the western world's gay milieu.
What was wondrous about Greyson's approach to Zero Patience was the way he conveyed so much anger with such a sly sense of humour. This was years before the game-changing, protease-inhibitor drug cocktails would debut, effectively making AIDS a far more treatable disease. It's a painful time to remember. Almost as horrific as the disease itself was the response of much of the public, who seemed to be apathetic and silent or quietly pleased at what appeared to be no-fault genocide.
Looking back at Zero Patience provokes a stark, strange combination of emotions: elation that AIDS isn't the death sentence that it used to be, and wistful sadness that it's highly unlikely a film as gutsy and flat-out weird as Zero Patience could even get made today – let alone find a distributor. The days of big-screen risk-taking as flamboyant, flagrant, uncompromising and incendiary as this, it seems, are long gone.
John Greyson: Impatient runs from March 30 to April 5 at Toronto's TIFF Bell Lightbox, kicking off with a book launch and screening of Zero Patience at 6 p.m. on March 30 (complete listings at tiff.net).
Matthew Hays is a co-editor of the Queer Film Classics book series, which includes the new book Zero Patience, launching as part of the Greyson retrospective.

Background: Esophageal hypersensitivity is important in gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) patients refractory to acid-suppressive therapy. Stress affects visceral sensitivity and exacerbates heartburn in GERD. Peripheral CRH is a key mediator of the gut stress response. We hypothesize that CRH increases esophageal sensitivity and alters esophageal motility in health. Methods: Esophageal sensitivity to thermal, mechanical, electrical and chemical stimuli was assessed in 14 healthy subjects after placebo or CRH (100μg IV). Perception scores were assessed for first perception, pain perception threshold (PPT) and pain tolerance threshold (PTT). Esophageal motility was investigated by high resolution impedance manometry, before and after CRH and evaluated by distal contractile integral (DCI) and intrabolus pressure (IBP). Pressure flow analysis assessed bolus clearance (impedance ratio), degree of pressurization needed to propel bolus onward (IBP slope) and pressure flow (pressure flow index, PFI). Stress and mood were assessed during the study. Results: Sensitivity to mechanical distention was increased after CRH compared to placebo (PPT p=0.0023; PTT p=0.0253). CRH had no influence on the other stimulations. DCI was increased for all boluses (liquid, p=0.0012; semi-solid, p=0.0017; solid, p=0.0107). Impedance ratio for liquid (p<0.0001) and semi-solid swallows (p=0.0327) decreased after CRH. IBP slope increased after CRH for semi-solid (p=0.0041) and solid (p=0.0003) swallows. PFI increased for semi-solid (p=0.0017) and solid swallows (p=0.0031). Conclusion: CRH increased esophageal sensitivity to mechanical distention, not to the other stimulation modalities. CRH increased esophageal contractility and tone, decreased LES relaxation, increased esophageal bolus pressurization, improved esophageal bolus clearance and increased pressure flow.

Twilight may be legitimately horrifying in certain ways, but it obviously was never able to please fans of real vampires. Thanks to visionary filmmaker , we'll be getting tried-and-true bloodsuckers on FX with a 13-episode first season order based on his novel with Chuck Hogan, The Strain.
Del Toro actually co-wrote and directed the pilot, which means that we should be getting something pretty close to his initial vision. If you've never read the book, here's a synopsis from Variety:
"The Strain" is billed as a high concept thriller that tells the story of Dr. Ephraim Goodweather, the head of the Center for Disease Control Canary Team in New York City. He and his team are called upon to investigate a mysterious viral outbreak with hallmarks of an ancient and evil strain of vampirism. As the strain spreads, Eph, his team, and an assembly of everyday New Yorkers, wage war for the fate of humanity itself.
The fact that FX will have both this and American Horror Story means that I'm a happy camper. But I'll also fully admit that I'm in denial about leaving AHS after next season. The Strain will reportedly include a cast of , Mia Maestro, , and . The show will premiere in July 2014 on FX.
Do you think The Strain will replace AHS in your heart? Let me know below and on Twitter
