Hey Guys!
I have left over malaria pills that I never used and want to bring them with me to South Africa just to have incase I travel into an area that is not Malaria free. This is a weird question but, if I no longer have them in the bottle that had the prescription on it, can I still put them in my checked luggage and get into the country fine with them?
Basically, the pills would be in a bag or whatever, unsealed, not in their original prescription bottle. Curious if security would confiscate them because I no longer have my prescription? (Either in the US or once in South Africa) I realize most loose pills are fine, but because they are not just over the counter medicine I don't want to risk loosing them if I don't have to. Let me know. thanks!

Sure -- you can even put them in your carry on (which is where all necessary meds should be BTW)

The TSA does not care about medication; they care about bombs and weapons. As I have said before - think logically. Even a pharmacist can not have total recall for pill recognition. So as long as it is a small number of pills, I would put them in a bag or small bottle and label as whatever you want.
Report Abuse
The usual mis-information and opinion based on little real knowledge of the law.
1. It MAY be illegal to carry a prescription medication' even within a given state in the USA' that is not in a prescription bottle. For example the Connecticut statute section 21a-248 states:
"A person to whom or for whose use any narcotic drug has been prescribed, sold or dispensed by a physician, dentist, pharmacist or other person authorized under the provisions of section 21a-248, and the owner of any animal for which any such drug has been prescribed, sold or dispensed may lawfully possess it only in the container in which it was delivered to the recipient by the person selling or dispensing the same except as may be authorized by regulations adopted hereunder." This law only applies to narcotic drugs, however, not to all prescription drugs.
Nor do I think anyone here knows what the law in the countries you might transit through or your destination country is. To ASSUME it is ok is pretty foolish in my opinion. To advise someone else that it is 'OK' is irresponsible in my opinion.
How do you expect a Police Officer or a Customs Officer in an airport to know what your pills really are if they are not in a prescription bottle with your name on it? Take your word for it?
Here is the REAL point. Carrying any medication can raise questions at home or when travelling. The easier it is for the official to confirm what it is the better for you. NO ONE can guarantee you there will be 'no problem' with pills out of the prescription bottle or even IN one.
It is not unusual for Customs doing a randon check on luggage and coming across medication even in a prescription bottle to do a check against a 'pill identifier' such as this one: http://www.rxlist.com/pill-identification-tool/article.htm
After all, if no one ever checked what was in a prescription bottle it would make a real easy way to smuggle illegal drugs don't you think?
When you travel with medication there is NO sure fire, no you won't get questioned answer. Travelling with medication does have some associated risks attached no matter what anyone says. There are too many variables.
On another point, not all anti-malarial drugs are equal when in comes to efficacy. You don't say what anti-malarial you have. If it is Chloroqhine it is not recommended for S. Africa. Read here: http://www.cdc.gov/malaria/travelers/country_table/s.html
The other point is 'shelf life'. How old are your pills and are they still effective or not? Have you checked? They don't stay effective forever you know. Example:

Neither I nor the poster above me proclaimed having knowledge of the law. Millions of p[eople travel every day with meds pre-poured into a med planner or other such tray. Please cite one case where medications which were not packaged in original prescription bottle created a problem for a raveler carrying a reasonable amount for personal (not smuggling) use.

I realize my experience is anecdotal but I've traveled all over the world (US, Europe, Africa Asia, Australia, South America, etc.) during the last 30+ years (anywhere from 10 to 30 different flights per year) and always bring my prescription drugs with me in my carry-on but rarely carry them in their original container. I've carried anywhere from a few day to 6 month's supply. Neither I nor my spouse have NEVER been asked by the airline, TSA (since 9/11) or any customs agent to show a copy of my prescription, the original bottles, a note from my doctor nor have we ever had to answer any questions about our prescriptions. For me and my spouse carrying a reasonable amount of prescription drugs on an airplane is simply a "non-issue".

The only time I ever remember there ever being any problem with pills at the airport I worked at was when a pax was so disoriented and out of it that the LEOs asked her what she was taking. They looked at all her pills to make sure she had no narcotics. The airline did not want her to fly if she was wacked. She took them out of her bag. They are looking for weapons and ieds not pills. This was an airline call and had nothing to do with customs, tsa or the police. We had a system, if you looked drunk or high. We watched you as you walked down the ramp. It is the best sobriety test. The pilot doesn't want you flying you won't fly. Some of those older people have their carry on bags filled with meds. Carry your pills any way you want. I put mine in the seven day carriers. Never a problem. Yes, I know we don't know rules in every country but don't think four pills will cause any trouble.

I wouldn't tune out all of what Sojourn qrote. Personally, I thought this:
<When you travel with medication there is NO sure fire, no you won't get questioned answer.>
is true, in the sense that all airport screening these days is a crapshoot. You just never know for sure what will be OK or not OK.
This seems like a good point, too:

Anecdotally--ahem--I always have loose pills on me, some Rx outside their bottle. I have never been questioned about them. So I would agree with most posters here that it will probably be fine.

Letters from an MD about anything flight-related are rarely considered valid for anything. Give someone 5 minutes, a computer, a printer, and they can create an MD letter stating just about anything - on credible-looking letterhead
Report Abuse
The plural of anecdote is not data. Regardless of how many thousands of people travel with medication not in a prescription bottle, that does not mean that any INDIVIDUAL will not be subject to a hassle at least. It is irrelevant to the OP if 5678 people say they had no problem if he ends up being the ONE person who does get hassled.
Therefore the only real advice anyone should give is that there is SOME risk and no one can guarantee you anything. Again, to say 'Sure you can even put them in your carry-on' or 'the TSA does not care about medication' is taking a very simplistic view which is NOT 100% true.
Gail, if you don't believe what I am saying, why don't YOU do some homework to determine if I am correct or not, rather than asking ME to prove what I have said? Prove I am wrong, I've already provided evidence to back up my comments, what evidence have you provided that says otherwise? Answer, none.
But if you need me to look for you then here you go:
You wrote, "Please cite one case where medications which were not packaged in original prescription bottle created a problem for a raveler carrying a reasonable amount for personal (not smuggling) use." Well that article shows you that not ONLY someone using a non-prescription bottle has to know what the law is if they plan to carry medication into another country, even those with medication IN a prescription bottle need to know and even NON-prescription medications like Dristan or Tylenol can get you hassled!
Having an uninformed opinion is not a crime. Being unwilling to acknowledge when your opinion is wrong should be a crime.
TSA are not the ONLY people who you need to satisfy. TSA themselves state, "TSA does not require passengers to have medications in prescription bottles, but states have individual laws regarding the labeling of prescription medication with which passengers need to comply."
Confirmation of what I have already said above about individual states and for which I have provided EVIDENCE. Besides states in the USA, a traveller also needs to consider COUNTRIES and their individual laws.
But even where it is quite legal, the issue is whether or not you might get hassled. Having done nothing illegal means nothing when you are hassled and held up at an airport for hours while they check things out.
Carrying pills outside of the prescription bottle INCREASES the chances of hassle. It's as simple as that. If the OP understands that is the risk and chooses to take that risk then that is an informed decision and is up to the OP. But not telling the OP there is a risk and implying or outright saying, 'sure, no problem' is irresponsible.
Report Abuse
gail, that's not a bad idea, actually--I mean, we shouldn't encourage fraud, but if you know the pills are legal, printing off a letter to wave at agents might work, no??

Sorry, should have thought a bit more before hitting Submit.
The letter need not be fraudulent. It could just be official looking, saying that such-and-such doctor prescribed such-and-such drug on such-and-such date, for this purpose, name of clinic or practice, and so on.

If inspectors think you are carrying illegal drugs, I really doubt a prescription bottle would stop them from further questioning.
You do want to be sure your antimalarials are the recommended type for your destination.

I avoided the health care issues related to "malaria pills" - but I agree. Especially since a call to ones PCP would likely get a renewal over the phone or if that was not an option many large hospitals have a travelers clinic that would do the same.

I really wish some people would consider the fact that TSA is applicable only to the USA, not the world. It is no wonder that Americans get a reputation for being unable to see and unknowledgeable about, anything outside their own country.

You will be questioned about bringing an illegal drug into the country. Do I need to spell out what their suspicions will be? What hassle you may encounter? The possible penalties if they choose to enforce them? Codeine is classed the same as Heroin in Greece.

Here's what the US State Department says (although admittedly they give no details about which countries might cause you problems):
Are You Taking Any Prescriptions or Other Medications?
If you take prescription medication:
* Pack enough to last your entire trip, including some extra in case you are unexpectedly delayed.
* Carry your medications in their original labeled containers, and pack them in your carry-on bag since checked baggage is occasionally lost or delayed.
* Ask your pharmacy or physician for the generic equivalent name of your prescriptions in case you need to purchase additional medication abroad.
* Get a letter from your physician in case you are questioned about your carry-on medication; some countries have strict restrictions on bringing prescription or even non-prescription medications into the country without proper medical documentation.
The Canadian government gives similar (generic) warnings here:
Prescription drugs may be illegal in other countries
Most of us know that "recreational" drugs, like marijuana, cocaine and ecstasy, are illegal almost everywhere. But in many countries, prescription drugs and medical supplies that are legal and readily available in Canada may also be considered illegal or arouse the suspicions of local customs officials.
How to travel safely with prescription drugs
Laws related to prescription drugs vary around the world. For detailed information, please visit the Prescription medication web page (http://travel.gc.ca/travelling/health-safety/medication).
Canadian visitors to the United States should be aware that their personal medication may be subject to U.S. drug importation laws and regulations. In general, personal importation of a 90-day (three-month) supply of medication is allowed, but only if the drug is not available in the United States.
Did you know about that last provision? The USA is among the countries that can cause you trouble for improper importation of prescription drugs!

Here's what the British government has to say about a specific country, the United Arab Emirates:
"You should take care over the import of prescription drugs, some over-the-counter drugs and certain substances known as herbal highs, such as Spice or Space, which can include synthetic cannabinoids."
And this site, for the International Narcotics Control Board, is really comprehensive. It is about legally bringing controlled substances (including 119 narcotic drugs and certain psychotropic substances) into various countries. http://www.incb.org/incb/en/psychotropic-substances/travellers_country_regulations.html

>>The question is COULD someone be stopped and hassled and the obvious answer is, yes they could. <<
And, of course you could carry all the drugs properly, abide by all laws of every state or country that you travel in - and STILL be stopped and hassled.
I personally find the entire TSA process akin to being "stopped and hassled" but I accept that as a part of travel.
Certain clear things here: There is NO federal law against traveling with your pills in a separate daily pill container. See http://www.deadiversion.usdoj.gov/21cfr/21usc/index.html
State by state, it may be a different issue. As a former practicing attorney, I'll give this bit of information - if you bring with you copies of your prescriptions, or even a photograph on your pill bottles on your phone (including a group shot if you have many) would 1. help any enforcement agent to exercise discretion and/or 2. help a prosecutor exercise HIS/HER discretion if the party in 1. above doesn't.
Report Abuse
State by state it IS a different issue apersuader. Links to that have already been given above. But more importantly in my opinion, is that the rest of the WORLD is not governed by US Federal law. US-centric writing is an embarassment.
The OP is talking about travelling to Africa, so what the TSA (again US-centric) or US law has to say is totally irrelevant.

Sian Blake murder: Cops caught SUNBATHING and swigging beer in Ghana
COPS sent to Ghana to hunt down the prime suspect in the Sian Blake triple murder appear to have been snapped sunbathing and downing beer.
The Met Police detectives were snapped putting their feet up at a plush four-star hotel – just hours after the force was slammed for its handling of the case.
Officers were blasted in court for blunders that could have held up the extradition of former EastEnders' star Ms Blake's partner, Arthur Simpson-Kent.
But the intense criticism didn't stop Brit cops Detective Chief Inspector Graeme Gwyn and Detective Constable Paul Lapthorn taking time out at the £227-a-night Golden Tulip Hotel in Ghana's capital, Accra.
Scotland Yard has come under fire for a three-week delay in digging up the garden of the family home in Erith, Kent, where their bodies were unearthed.
Simpson–Kent, 48, was eventually tracked down near a beach last week after locals tipped off Ghanaian police.
It piles further pressure on the Met with a probe from the Independent Police Complaints Commission looming into their handling of the investigation.
"It is not unreasonable for (officers) to make use of hotel facilities when there is time available to take a break.""Met Police spokesperson
Simpson-Kent sparked a police manhunt after fleeing Britain and jetting to the African country on December 19.
He is accused of killing Ms Blake, 43, and sons Zachary, eight, and Amon, four, just days earlier between December 13 and 16.
Simpson-Kent appeared in court on Tuesday when prosecutors admitted extradition papers had not yet been drawn up because The Met was "taken by surprise at how quickly he was found", the Mail on Sunday reports.
And a defence lawyer claimed the suspect should walk because Scotland Yard detectives failed to bring a formal arrest warrant.
A Met Police spokesperson told Daily Star Online the officers were "on downtime".
"When Met officers are required to travel overseas, they often work extremely long and unsocial hours," he said.
"Since officers working overseas are unable to return home outside of working hours, it is not unreasonable for them to make use of hotel facilities when there is time available to take a break."

Membrane Dialysis Extraction (MDE): A Novel Approach for Extracting Toxicologically Relevant Hydrophobic Organic Compounds from Soils and Sediments for Assessment in Biotests
- 178 Downloads
- Citations
Goal, Scope and Background
Organic solvents are routinely used to extract toxicants from polluted soils and sediments prior to chemical analysis or bioassay. Conventional extraction methods often require the use of heated organic solvents, in some cases under high pressure. These conditions can result in loss of volatile compounds from the sample and the degradation of thermally labile target analytes. Moreover, extracts of soils and sediments also frequently contain substantial quantities of organic macromolecules which can act as sorbing phases for target analytes and in doing so interfere with both chemical analysis and bioassays. Membrane dialysis extraction (MDE) is described as a simple, passive extraction method for selectively extracting toxicologically relevant hydrophobic organic compounds (HOCs) from polluted soils and sediments and anaylzed for its applicability in ecotoxicological investigations.
Toxicologically relevant hydrophobic organic compounds were extracted from wet and dry sediments by sealing replicate samples in individual lengths of pre-cleaned low-density polyethylene (LD-PE) tubing and then dialysing in n-hexane. The efficacy of the MDE method for use in ecotoxicological investigations was assessed by testing the concentrated extracts in the neutral red assay for acute cytotoxicity, in the EROD assay for the presence of dioxin-like compounds and in the Danio rerio fish egg assay for embryotoxic and teratogenic effects. Conditions of the sediment sample (with or without water content), dialysis membrane length and duration of dialysis were analyzed with respect to their impact on three endpoints. Results of the MDE investigations were compared to data obtained in samples prepared using conventional Soxhlet extraction.
Results and Discussion
The membrane dialysis extraction was found to be at least as efficient as Soxhlet methodology to extract toxicologically relevant HOCs from sediment samples. In most cases, MDE-derived extracts showed a higher toxicological potential than the Soxhlet extracts. Lack of any significant effects in any MDE controls indicated these differences were not caused by contamination of the LD-PE membrane used. The elevated toxicological potential of MDE extracts is most likely the result of enhanced bioavailability of toxic compounds in consequence of lower amounts of organic macromolecules (i.e. sorbing phases) in the MDE extracts. This effect is probably the result of a size-selective restriction by the LD-PE membrane.
Membrane dialysis extraction was found to be a simple, efficient and cost-effective method for the extraction of sediment samples. MDE can be used to extract toxicologically relevant hydrophobic organic compounds from both wet and dry sediments without the risk of loosing volatile and thermally labile target analytes. The size-selectivity of the LD-PE membrane also appears to have the capacity to increase the bioavailablity of potential target analytes in the resulting extracts by retaining much of the organic macromolecules present in the sample. Thus, results suggest that MDE may be particularly useful for the extraction of toxicologically relevant hydrophobic organic compounds from soils and sediments for bioassays and other ecotoxicological investigations.
Recommendation and Perspective
Further validation of MDE has been initiated and the applicability of the methodology to other sample types will be investigated. Of particular interest is the potential application of MDE to recover hydrophobic target analytes from biological samples such as muscle, other soft tissues and blood.

The Morning After Show 15th Anniversary Party featuring:
Jarabedepalo with special guests, Los Furios and Caracas
First 60 tickets sold get access to the Press Conference at 7 PM
THE MORNING AFTER SHOW started last century with Jeremy Baker and Paul Gulett on 101.9 FM CiTR radio. Oswaldo Perez Cabrera joined in 2001. When Jeremy left for The Zone inVictoria more than 10 years ago, Oswaldo took over the eclectic radio show which specializes in nothing in particular but plays a lot of local bands and always have guests playing LIVE.
Jarabedepalo started back in 1996 and quickly became one of the biggest bands in Spain and Latin America playing in almost every country of the continent. After a trip to Cuba, Catalan born Pau Dones got the inspiration to write the song La Flaca which was a worldwide success; after that, tours, awards and albums started happening. They have been nominated several times for the Latin Grammys, almost every time they release an album, the latest SOMOS was nominated for Album of the Year, Best Pop Rock album, and best song for SOMOS. Jarabedepalo has that Mediterranean sound of Barcelona's bands that mix Latin with gypsy rhythms, a perfect combination for a party. But Jarabedepalo has an edge, their songs are bohemian with a positive message. A star not only in his native Spain, but in Italy and most of Europe Pau Dones has collaborated with Luciano Pavarotti, Alanis Morrisette, Celia Cruz and even wrote songs for Ricky Martin. In 2014 they toured the East coast of the USA, México, Chile, Argentina,
Paraguay, Uruguay, Brasil, Venezuela, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Perú and Ecuador. 2015 will start with Colombia and the most important festival in Latin America; Vive Latino in Mexico City. Afterwards they will come to play for the first time in Canada, starting in Vancouver their West coast tour.
Los Furios is the best ska band in British Columbia and the only Vancouver band that has conquered the hearts of the Mexicans, hence their four tours and appearances on major festivals down there. Their newest single is a different version of The Jokes on You. A loud horn section, catchy melodies, solid rhythm section and clever writing guarantee that you are going to be dancing. Since 2003 they have been committed to entertaining their live audiences. With a devoted fan following, Los Furios performs an intense mix of reggae and punk infused ska originals sure to get you out on the floor!
CARACAS is a Latin punk rock band from East Vancouver formed by the Venezuelan immigrant brothers Javier and Victor Badillo in 2011. Venezuelans Jorge Luis Pedret (rhythm guitar), Enmanuel Moreno (drums), Luis Garzon (bass), and Canadian Heather Anderson (trumpet) joined them in 2014. Characterized by syncopated, upbeat, melodic and original Latin-influenced punk rock, with a penchant to cross genre boundaries into jazz, funk and ska. The Badillo brothers are not strangers to fame, previous to Caracas, they played in the seminal Malaysian punk rock band LyMe touring all around South Asia to multitudes.

Combining resources will streamline operations, gain efficiencies, and help keep costs down.
Middletown, Pa. and Columbia, S.C. (July 2, 2015) – MY CU Services, LLC, a CUSO in Mid-Atlantic Corporate Federal Credit Union's family of companies, and PCSimages, LLC (PCSi), a CUSO owned by Palmetto Cooperative Services, LLC, Cooperative Services Inc. (CSI), and Credit Union Partnership, Inc., have entered into an agreement to transfer ownership of PCSi and its payment services to MY CU Services. This strategic alliance extends MY CU Services' offerings and payment processing to more than 1,400 credit unions throughout the United States and Canada. Palmetto Cooperative Services and CSI, the majority owners of PCSi, will have ownership interests and board representation in MY CU Services, with Mid-Atlantic Corporate Federal Credit Union remaining the majority owner.
MY CU Services President/CEO Drew Kishbaugh says the organizations have been discussing for some time how they might work together. This collaboration of MY CU Services and PCSi, which includes First Carolina Corporate Credit Union and several credit union league service corporations, complements and expands the service offerings for each credit union service provider, including payment processing, information technology, bill payment, cash services, core processing, and consulting services.
"For several years, we've talked about ways we could collaborate to gain efficiencies and reduce costs, so this union is a natural progression in our relationship," Kishbaugh said. "By combining PCSi's payment capabilities with ours, MY CU Services will be able to meet a greater range of client needs."
The transition is to be completed in September, with both companies initially continuing to operate from their respective locations. Existing PCSi clients will see minimal disruption from the consolidation since the alliance will continue to support existing payment service platforms.
As payment volumes increase, MY CU Services expects the combined organizations to achieve greater economies of scale which, in turn, will help contain costs – a major benefit for participating credit unions.
Palmetto Cooperative Services President/CEO Brad Miller commented, "The dynamic state of evolution in payments demands broad perspective and collaboration to ensure credit unions remain competitive and innovative in serving their members. This collaboration among CUSOs, corporates, and league service corporations–and the resulting strategic alignment–help ensure that the credit unions we collectively serve will stay ahead of the curve."
"While long-range plans include evaluating the most effective way to combine systems, we are intentionally taking a measured, incremental approach to avoid inconveniencing clients," Kishbaugh said. "At the same time, we're excited about this opportunity because it will further expand our reach into the payments business and provide more growth opportunities. Combining our two organizations creates a powerful resource for credit unions along the Atlantic Coast."
Miller agrees. "Putting these companies together just makes good sense. It will help position MY CU Services more prominently and assure best-of-breed products and services for our collective clients now and well into the future," he said.

Hiking, Biking & More in Oaxaca, Mexico
A beautiful beach in Huatulco
An exciting sport to try out in Oaxaca is trekking or mountain hiking in the Northern Sierra. Considered one of the best preserved natural regions in Mexico, the Northern Sierra offers guests the chance to go on mountain-biking trips and hikes along scenic routes that include ancient ruins, lush jungles and forests. You can also find spots for rappelling, rock climbing and fishing.
Another favorite destination of sports enthusiasts is the Mixtec region. This area is dotted with mountain roads and marked by waterfalls, caves and canyons which make it a perfect site for hikers, bikers or just the usual day trippers. Guests can visit the Santiago Apoala, which is a grotto housing wide galleries, two giant boulders measuring 300 meters high, a river of the most exquisite blue hue, waterfalls and a beautiful natural swimming pool.
The region of Huatulco also offers one of the best places for active sports pursuits. Located along the coast of Oaxaca, Huatulco stretches 22 miles along the Pacific Ocean between the rivers of the Coyula and Copalito. Huatulco is home to 9 bays and 36 beaches within the Huatulco National Park. The area is also home to valleys, mountains and slopes, as well as magnificent landscapes and land formations. For adventure seekers, there is rafting and kayaking in the waves of La Bocana or in the open sea itself, where one can cruise alongside the dolphins or whales making their migratory journey. Other thrill-seekers can enjoy hiking in Huatulco's National Park or in Punta Celeste's majestic archaeological ruins. Hikers can also traverse The Coyote Beach in San Agustin Bay and rock climb in any of its beautiful waterfalls.

Arianna Huffington has publicly supported her employees' right to organize since negotiations around their eligibility first began in October 2015. In a letter to staff earlier this month, Huffington Post management announced that they have reached an agreement with the Writers Guild of America, East (WGEA) to voluntarily recognize the union, pending a count of signed authorization cards. Perhaps HuffPost will have better luck than Al Jazeera.
Two weeks ago, Al Jazeera America CEO, Al Anstey, announced that the company will be closing its doors on April 30.
"[O]ur business model is simply not sustainable in light of the economic challenges in the U.S. media marketplace," Anstey told staff in a memo.
This comes just months after staff members of the digital newsroom voted to unionize under the News Guild of New York (CWA).

So how many unwanted presents did you get for Christmas?
Most of us try hard to give gifts someone wants to get, but not everyone gets it right so we sometimes (often?) get gifts that are not useful or not suitable for us.
Seriously, what do you do with those presents? Let us know in the comments as we all come across this issue from time to time!
I can't say I've tried all of these, but here are some ideas for those presents when you can't openly improve the situation…
Day 20 of the Lego Friends calendar showed up a stove and a big chicken leg – even the chicken had to be put together in Lego fashion!
And day 20 of the Lego City calendar produced two presents – very different ones to those in the Friends calendar on day 17.
Don't forget you can go back and read day one of the advent calendars from this year, or from 2015!
I just came across this thought in a magazine (Your Child in Banyule & Nillumbik to be precise) and loved it:
one of the most glorious messes in the world is the mess created in the lounge room on Christmas Day. Don't clean it up too quickly.
I love that mess (especially compared to the mess my kids usually make…) all the wrapping paper and packaging strewn across the floor, new clothes, books and toys scattered around, topped off with tinsel and decorations around the room. It evokes happy feelings of sharing and giving, and its bright and colourful. Love it!
I never clean it up before we go out for Christmas lunch, and generally leave it for Boxing Day (isn't that the point of Boxing Day anyway??) Does that make me unusual?
I know a number of friends have a family arrangement where only the kids get Christmas presents now, but I don't like it.
Yes, I get that it saves a lot of money and stress to cut down the list of people to buy for – and with a list of 35 or so, I am all for that concept! And kids are often easier to buy for than adults you don't see very often.
But there are a number of downsides I think:
– adults deserve fun too – who says we grow out of presents?
– it teaches kids to expect a lot, and possibly at the exclusion of adults
– kids get so much it is overwhelming anyway
Why not let the kids watch adults get things for a change?
Or maybe make family gifts instead of for kids or adults – a board game all can play, tickets to the zoo or a movie, a recipe book they can use together, some vegetable seedlings to start a garden, a beach umbrella, and so on.
What do you think – if presents are being cut back, who should get them? Have you experienced this idea of kids only gifts – did it work well?* Photo courtesy of 123rf
I've heard many people say they're up late on Christmas Eve wrapping loads of presents, so I'm curious – when do you wrap your presents?
Do you make an event of it – getting the family together, having some nibbles and drinks and music as you work – or is it just something that gets done?
I've been meaning to post this since Christmas!
This year, my kids decided that Mummy needed to have a stocking too, as Santa only brings gifts for kids. So, I gave them some shopping money (they're 3 & 5 and don't get pocket money yet), and they took their Oma to Chadstone to buy items for Mummy's stocking. They made some great choices, include a Christmas angel with my name on it, a headband, a book to read, and some bubble bath.
On Christmas morning, we all had fun opening our stockings together, and the boys were so proud of the stocking they had put together for Mummy.
For many years now, our family has done a Kris Kringle for the adults – each family still gives something to the kids.
My mother has suddenly decided that this is the last year – from now on we won't give any presents. When everyone else argued against her decree, she muttered about 'saving everyone the hassle of choosing a present to give' – nice to know that's what we mean to her. Especially as even the KK has shrunk as family members have moved away and can't join us anyway…
In the end, we overruled her and Kris Kringle lives – and with a higher budget, too (yep, Mum's idea to reduce it to $20 a few years ago. I mean the idea of introducing KK in our family is to get one decent present instead of many small ones – not so good with a $20 cap!)
But it just made we wonder – where is the spirit of giving? The 'it is better to give than receive'?
I love giving gifts that really mean something to the other person – it takes more time than buying a box of chocolates or a book voucher, but the look on their face and the knowledge that the present will last (in their memories at least) is well worth it to me.
I remember I once gave a babysitting voucher to my cousin who had a boisterous toddler – the look of joy on her face was priceless, and she treasured that voucher above her other gifts (by treasured I mean she kept it away from her toddler whereas he could look at her other gifts!) It was a simple gift and affordable as I had little money at the time, but meant a lot to her.
Another year I gave another cousin a calligraphy set because I remembered her saying she'd love to learn calligraphy. She had forgotten telling me that so her gift was a surprise but really suited her.
What presents have you given or received that are memorable for more than the price tag?
I think my childhood Christmases were pretty Australian.
We spent the day at my Uncle's house every Christmas. They lived right on the beach so in between food and presents, we'd spend the day on the beach – mostly I remember playing cricket for hours on end.
It was hot, sunny and great fun!
Regardless, we had the traditional roast meal – lamb, pork and turkey I think were there most years, with loads of veggies, followed by Christmas pudding and custard and/or cream.
Present time was a bit mad, but it was controlled enough that we all watched what everyone got before the next presents were handed out – made it more fun to prolong the pleasure and enjoy everyone's happiness at their gifts.
The day was loud and seemed to last forever, and we hated going home afterwards.
Yesterday on a long drive, both my kids fell asleep in the car. After about an hour, my nearly 6 year old woke with a start telling me he'd just had a lovely big sleep and had a wonderful dream.
He dreamt there were lots of Santas in the world, making sure all the kids had "the most" presents.
I thought that was lovely, and spot on.
When I was little my sisters and I would LOVE Christmas Eve. My step-father and his family were from Europe and so we celebrated the festive season on Christmas Eve at either my grandparent's home or my Aunt's home. Either way, it was special.
Grandpa would have lovingly put up the Christmas tree weeks before – a Christmas tree that stretched up to the ceiling and spread out across the room. We would feast on a range of Australian and European foods, including some specialities that Grandma would only make at this time of year, and there were never enough of those! But there was always MORE THAN ENOUGH food to feed us well for a week and then some!
After dinner we would open presents… piles and piles of gifts, carefully wrapped and decorated. But the present-opening wasn't a frenzied free for all. We would hand out the gifts one at a time – that was always done by the kids – and then everyone would watch as the recipient opened their present, then we could hand out another.
The night continued with a myriad of Christmas music, dancing and performances by my sisters, cousin and myself, and perhaps some Christmas movies thrown in too. And there were always on-going discussions throughout the night as to who was going to Midnight Mass and who was staying home. Grandma always chose Mass and at least one other adult would have to accompany her.
Somewhere between 1am and 2am we would be fighting to keep our eyes open and would eventually fall asleep in some corner of the loungeroom (or on an adult lap), only to be carried, still sleeping, to the car and then into bed (still fully dressed) when we arrived back home at around 3-4am.
We still celebrate on Christmas Eve but now that I'm grown up the tree doesn't seem quite so big. And being allowed to stay up practically all night for one night of the year isn't as big a deal as it was back then, yet the magic is still there. Instead, the magic now comes from watching the excitement in the eyes of the current generation of littlies – my son, nieces and nephew. As I watch their sparkling faces I fully understand their awe at the size of the Christmas tree and their excitement at being able to stay up waaaaay past bedtime.
Merry Christmas to all…
Santa adapts well to each family's preferences and traditions, leaving presents wherever suits the family, be it in a stocking or not, under the tree, indoors or even outdoors.
So let us know where Santa leaves presents in your house – is it the same as when you were younger? Is there a story or reason for that place?
Love Santa's Elf

wikiHow to Get the Terra Blade in Terraria
Four Parts:Night's EdgeExcaliburTrue Night's Edge and ExcaliburTerra BladeCommunity Q&A
The Terra Blade is the strongest weapon in Terraria (before patch 220.127.116.11), and is very hard to get. You will need to get Night's Edge, Excalibur, and three Broken Hero Swords. This guide will teach you how to get the strongest sword (before patch 18.104.22.168) in Terraria.
Part 1
Night's Edge
1Before you can even think about the Terra Blade, you need to get Night's Edge. It is the strongest Pre Hardmode sword.
2Visit the Crimson. Mine as much Crimtane ore as you can. An alternative to this is to Beat the Eye of Cthulhu in a Crimson world. You need 15 Crimtane Bars, which means you need 45 Crimtane ore to make the Blood Butcher, the first ingredient of Night's Edge. If you have a corrupt world, you can substitute with a Light's Bane.
3Visit the Dungeon. First, you will need to Beat Skeletron. Then, open Golden Chests until you find the Muramasa.
4Visit the Underworld. Mine Hellstone ore (you need 60, plus 20 Obsidian.) To make Hellstone Bars, you need a Hellforge, which you can(visit this link if you have trouble: Find a Ruined House in Terraria ) find in a Ruined House. Craft 20 Hellstone Bars and make a Fiery Greatsword.
5Visit the Corruption. You need to mine 45 Demonite ore to make your 15 Demonite Bars. Once you get 15 Bars, craft Light's Bane.
6Find the Underground Jungle. Once you do, kill Hornets until you have 15 Stingers, and find 12 Jungle Spores. Combine these to make the Blade of Grass.
7Combine all the swords mentioned above at a Crimson/Corrupt Altar. You will get Night's Edge, the first ingredient of the Terra Blade.
Part 2
Part 3
True Night's Edge and Excalibur
1Beat the Twins, and wait for a Solar Eclipse. They have a 1/20 chance of occuring every day.
2On the day of the Solar Eclipse, either wear Turtle Armor, drink a Battle Potion, stand near a Water Candle, or all of those at the same time.
3Kill Mothron (or Swamp Things and Frankensteins before patch 188.8.131.52). They have a chance to drop Broken Hero Swords. You need three (two before patch 22.214.171.124) Broken Hero Swords to craft the Terra Blade.
4Combine (at a Mythril/Orithcalum Anvil) a Broken Hero Sword and Night's Edge to get True Night's Edge. Then combine Excalibur and a Broken Hero Sword to make True Excalibur.
Part 4
Terra Blade
Community Q&A
How do I get the muramasa to make the nights edge?VanClifford CabaisFind a dungeon (far left or right of your world), beat Skeletron at night, then collect golden keys to unlock golden chests. Unlock the chests until you find the muramasa.
How do I get the broken hero sword?wikiHow ContributorYou get it from monsters that come during a solar eclipse, and it has a low chance of being dropped by a vampire.
How can I get ice feathers easily?wikiHow ContributorThe only possible way is by killing Ice Golems. If you're looking to make wings, instead you should try to kill Red Devil's in hell because there are many more of them, and you'll have a much higher chance (statistically) of getting good wings.
What do I need to kill a moon lord?wikiHow ContributorThe highest armor you can get with your available resources, terra blade, and probably lots of minions.
If I play on console, is it likely I can find andamite or does it spawn in different world's?wikiHow ContributorYou have to beat the wall of flesh and enter hard mode, then break demon alters and they will spawn ores. Break at least three, then find andamite ore near there. He'll make an andamite forge out of 30 andamite ore and you can then make andamite bars.
I have all the supplies but it did not give me the recipe! What can I do?wikiHow ContributorYou combine the Blade of Grass, Blood Butcherer, Fiery Greatsword, and Muramusa to get the Night's Edge sword. Then, combine 12 Hallowed bars to get Excalibur. Then combine Excalibur and a broken hero sword to get true Excalibur and another broken hero sword with Night's edge to get True Night's Edge. After you have these two swords, combine them with yet another broken hero sword to get the Terra Blade.
Are dragon hornets the only ones that drop stingers?wikiHow ContributorNo. You can get stingers from spiked jungle slimes too, but it drops less frequently from them.
How do I get bat wings?VanClifford CabaisTo get bat wings, wait for a solar eclipse and fight vampires until you get a broken bat wing. Combine the broken bat wing and 20 souls of flight at an Orichalcum anvil or its equivalent, and there you have it.
Is the Terra Blade a better choice than the Influx Waver?wikiHow ContributorI personally think the Influx Waver is better, but the Terra Blade is available after one mech boss and does similar damage.
How can I duplicate items by local multiplayer?wikiHow ContributorGo into the other player's world, leave the item(s) you want duplicated, and then exit without saving. If you're lucky, this will work.

This listing includes one bottle of 1 oz eduction ferrofluid.
What is Ferrofluid?
In short, it is a liquid that responds to magnets and magnetic fields. The longer answer is ferrofluid is an extremely fine powder, coated with a soap-like material called a surfactant, suspended in a mineral oil liquid base. The resulting magnetic suspension is called a ferrofluid.
When no magnetic field is present, ferrofluid behaves and flows like a normal liquid. However, when a magnet or magnetic field is introduced, the ferrofluid is attracted to the field. Spikes then form along the magnetic field lines when the magnetic surface force exceeds the stabilizing effects of fluid weight and surface tension.
Please take care when handling ferrofluid. Besides being fun to play with, it also is capable of staining everything it comes into contact with. Please make sure to take care when using it.
Ferrofluid should never be used for applications involving loudspeakers. Ferrofluid can be hazardous or even fatal if swallowed or if it enters airways. Ferrofluid can cause skin irritation or serious eye irritation.
The material safety data sheet can be found at the following address: https://ferrofluid.ferrotec.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/efhsds.pdf
There are 1 review(s) for 1 oz Magnetic Ferrofluid for Fun! Packed with Gloves and Pipette
by haggis9997 – 11th Oct 2012
I did a lot of research about this stuff (search engines) and was expecting some nasty smelling good that would be super hard to work with. This isn't bad smelling, definitely will stain things, but I was successful with my very first attempt at putting some in a small glass vial with a clear suspension fluid. The ferrofluid did not stain the glass and also stayed completely separate from the suspension fluid! Fun stuff!

In a jurisdiction with a growing claims culture and increasing regulatory burden, the threat of litigation is just as relevant to directors as to corporate entities themselves. Whilst companies and partnerships may have limited liability, the liabilities of directors themselves must not be overlooked. In this article we remind directors in the hospitality sector of their duties, highlighting key points, potential risks and identifying ways to manage these risks.
General duties of directors under the Companies Act 2006
The Companies Act 2006 codified certain common law and equitable duties of directors. These general duties are owed by a director, in his capacity as a director, to the company. Only the company, or, in some circumstances, the shareholders acting on the company's behalf, will be able to enforce them. Any person holding the position of director, whatever they are called, are subject to these duties. Shadow directors are also subject to these duties where the corresponding common law rules or equitable principles apply. However, The Small Business, Enterprise and Employment Act 2015 expands the application of these duties to shadow directors "where and to the extent that they are capable of applying".
In summary, the seven general directors' duties under the Companies Act are:
- To act within powers
- To promote the success of the company
- To exercise independent judgment
- To exercise reasonable care, skill and diligence
- To avoid conflicts of interest
- Not to accept benefits from third parties
- To declare an interest in a proposed transaction or arrangement
Duty to promote the success of the company
In complying with their duty to promote the success of the company, a director must act in the way they consider, in good faith, would be most likely to promote the success of the company for the benefit of the members as a whole. In carrying out this duty, directors must have regard to: the likely consequences of any decision in the long term; the interests of the company's employees; the need to foster the company's business relationships with suppliers, customers and others; the impact of the company's operations on the community and the environment; the desirability of the company maintaining a reputation for high standards of business conduct; the need to act fairly as between the members of the company.
Directors in the hospitality sector can often be faced with decisions which may impact the company's operations on the community and the environment, and this is an important factor to consider when deciding whether an action would promote the success of the company as a whole.
A company should consider its policy and determine how compliance with this duty is documented. A carefully considered and drafted policy may assist in rebutting any allegation that the factors to which directors must have regard have not properly been considered.
Duty to exercise reasonable care, skill and diligence
One important point to note in terms of the duty to exercise reasonable care, skill and diligence is that the standard is judged by both an objective and subjective test. A director must exercise the care, skill and diligence which would be exercised by a reasonably diligent person with the general knowledge, skill and experience that may be reasonably expected of a person carrying out the functions of the director in relation to the company. Additionally, where a director has specialist knowledge, the higher standard must be met whereby they must exercise the care, skill and diligence with the knowledge, skill and experience they actually have.
Duty to not accept benefits from third parties
The very nature of the hospitality sector gives rise to the risks of bribery or exploitation of the position of director for personal benefit. Directors have a duty to not accept any benefit from a third party which is conferred because of them being a director or them doing or not doing anything as a director.
The members of a company may authorise the acceptance of benefits that would otherwise be a breach of this duty. It may be appropriate for companies to amend their constitutions enabling directors to accept a certain level of corporate hospitality without breaching their duty to the company.
On a similar note, the Bribery Act 2010 should also be of concern to directors, as it created criminal offences for bribing another person and relating to being bribed. Directors should be aware of these offences and how to avoid them.
Other statutory duties
As well as the general duties, the Companies Act imposes administrative duties on directors such as the duty to file annual returns and keep the statutory books up to date.
Directors should also be mindful of the wide range of other laws and regulations which also impose duties on them such as insolvency law, company and commercial governance, health and safety regulations, insurance compliance, environmental and planning legislation and competition law.
For those in the hospitality sector, specific risk areas are likely to include health and safety, accident and property damage, food safety and hygiene, licensing, intellectual property and brand management, employment, immigration, data protection, pensions, financial crime and cyber security. It is important that directors are aware of their duties in relation to these areas in order to avoid risk of personal liability.
Managing risk
There are several steps that a company can take to reduce the risk of action against its directors in relation to their personal duties.
The Companies Act permits a company to purchase insurance for its directors against any liability for breach of duty. Secondly, although the company cannot exempt a director for liability, it may indemnify the director against defence costs, or costs incurred in an application for relief. However, if the director is unsuccessful he may find himself having to repay these costs.
Companies should ensure that its directors are briefed on their duties and that they are referred to in any terms of appointment and description of role, and any terms of reference of any board or committee.
Policies in areas such as finance, human resources, ethics, compliance and corporate responsibility should be carefully drafted considering directors' duties and widely distributed. Policies need to be readily accessible, kept up to date and must also be replaced or supplemented where necessary to ensure that national and local regulatory requirements are met.
Directors are advised to keep matters under continual review. In particular, it is prudent to:
- Hold frequent board meetings and to keep proper minutes of those meetings, noting in particular any decisions made and the reasons for them
- Maintain accurate and up to date financial and other records
- Take professional advice where required
- Have a corporate culture that allows people to report appropriately
- Identify specific risks to the business
- Consider and implement protective steps

Chrystia Freeland
New York Times
November 10, 2011
BUDAPEST — Europeans could use a little cheering up this week. One man who is trying to do that is George Soros. He knows his way around a currency crisis, of course, and he isn't usually accused of being a Pollyanna. Mr. Soros thinks it is not too late to save Europe and the euro — but he warns that time is running out and that Europe's leaders must fundamentally change their strategy to succeed.
Let's start with the bad news. "Right now, the crisis has hit a new high, because there's an unresolved government crisis in Greece and in Italy," Mr. Soros said. "There is also a looming worsening of the financial crisis, because all the efforts to leverage the E.F.S.F. have run into legal or technical difficulties." He was referring to the European Financial Stability Facility, the bailout fund for the euro zone.
"That means that currently Europe has no ring fence against a possible Greek default, and that is what is pushing the market into a renewed panic," he said. "I expect the market to fall into despair and panic and I expect that to get worse."

The Tracks from Take You With Me
- Take you with me … Written by Hannah Butz Ehrlich; performed by Hannah Butz Ehrlic, Michael Ehrlich and Jennifer Hopper
This simple, yet profoundly insightful song was composed by Hannah as a way to express her feelings about the death of her aunt. Teresa and Hannah were extremely close. Hannah has eloquently described how she manages to deal with her loss. "I take you with me where I go … then I never have to go alone. If there's one thing I hope you to know … I take you with me where I go."
- Come Along or Step Aside … Written by Norbert Leo Butz; performed by Norbert Leo Butz, John Shannon, Konrad Adderley, Jeff Potter, TC Furlong, Bobby Crowe, Jennifer Hopper
Originally written by Norbert years before Teresa's death, he felt that this song aptly described the emotions he has experienced in dealing with the death of his sister. For those who were close to Norb before Teresa's death, but could not find a way to understand or comprehend the tragedy that took place, Norb's response was simply, "Come along, or step aside." Either get involved and be with me on this journey of pain and grief, or make room for those who will. We have found this to be particularly poignant for those who have encountered the Angel Band Project during our musical journey. You're either with us, or you're not. We thank you for coming along with us. What a ride it has been.
- Make You Feel My Love … written by Bob Dylan; performed by Jennifer Hopper, Maria Scherer Wilson, Adrian Van Battenburg, Josh Wilson, Eli Rosenblatt, Andy Stoller, Conor Detjen, Dean Luce, Lulu Strange, Sally Reavis, Dana Pleasant, Gena Brooks
This upbeat version of the Bob Dylan classic, sung by Teresa's partner, reminds us of just how much one human being in love with another will do to prove that love. "I could make you happy, make your dreams come true … I'd go crawling down the avenue … I'd go to the ends of the earth for you. To make you feel my love." Sung with conviction and energy, this song will have you clicking "repeat" many times in a row. It's really good.
- Real Love … written by Jim Butz; performed by Jim Butz, Steve Butz, and Norbert Leo Butz
An inspiring song that deals with what we are all searching for in life: the presence of Real Love. "I need the presence of your Real Love … I want the resurrection power." In light of this tragedy, Teresa's youngest brother Jim looks for wisdom from above to handle the tremendous grief of losing his sister.
- Goodbye …. Written by Patty Griffin; performed by Norbert Leo Butz, Mari Dorman-Phaneuf, Christian Hebel
A haunting but beautiful song that captures the heartbreaking emotion of saying goodbye to someone you love. In this case, forever. "I remember where I was …. When the word came about you. It was a day much like today … the sky was wide and high and blue. " To reflect on the day when your world is changed forever. To wish that there would have been "a better way to say goodbye."
- Mary … written by Patty Griffin; performed by Jennifer Hopper, Norbert Leo Butz, John Shannon, Konrad Adderley, Jeff Potter, Bobby Crowe
A favorite of Teresa's, Norb chose this song because he knew how much Teresa loved it. It's a song sung by Teresa's partner that is sung with such subdued force, such belief in its lyrics, that we are reminded of how we, too, can prevail over death … just as Mary did.
- Angel Waltz … written by Bobby Crowe; performed by Norbert Leo Butz, John Shannon, Konrad Adderley, Jeff Potter, Christian Hebel, Walter L. English III
Composed by one of Norb's best friends, this song wends its way through the verses in a dreamlike melody of ethereal imagery. "She waltzes slowly with the moonbeams … reach through the clouds to her face." "She says that she's gone away to heaven … she says it's a place I ought to see. She says that she wants to take me with her …" Led with vocal beauty from Teresa's brother Norb, and with a backdrop of piano, violin, and electric guitar, this song radiates with a sorrowful, yet contemplative melody. And she indeed, has left us for higher ground.
- Kind heart on Rose St. … written by Adam Butz; performed by Adam and The Wifflers
Adam, Teresa's oldest nephew, composed this hard-edged punk rock tune in an effort to articulate his anger and sadness at losing his favorite aunt. He's "gotta get away from the chaos." He captures Teresa's energy ("she's the one who's always laughing and dancing … energy to rock the house all night, all night) while reminding us again and again of the horrible way that she left this earth on that "bloody night on Rose Street." She was, after all, that "kind heart on Rose Street."
- If … written by Jennifer Hopper; performed by Jennifer Hopper, Maria Scherer Wilson, Josh Wilson
This simple, yet beautifully written poem, composed by Teresa's partner, captures the kaleidoscope of brilliant colors that Teresa was made of. The delicate piano notes, the sadness of the cello, and Jen's heartfelt lyrics depict a soulful picture for us all to imagine.
- Ready When You Are … written by Jim Butz; performed by Jim Butz and Norbert Leo Butz
In a world where we often feel like we need to be in control, this song reminds us that that is just not always so. Written by Teresa's youngest brother Jim during his time in the seminary, this contemplates the realities of the here and now. There's much that is out of our hands, and if we let it go and realize that there is something greater than our human power, we might find peace. "You're in control. I'm letting go."
- Free to Be You & Me … written by Bruce Hart; performed by Tony Butz
Originally released on Marlo Thomas' "Free to be you & me" album in the late 70s, this enthusiastic rendition sung by Teresa's brother Tony is filled with hope. A childhood favorite of Teresa and Tony's growing up, this album symbolized the freedom that we all yearn for; that someday, we can all aspire to live "in a land, where the horses run free … and you and me are free to be, you and me."
- Great Dream … musical arrangement by Joseph Joubert and vocal arrangement by Michael McElroy; performed by Michael McElroy, Joseph Joubert, Konrad Adderley, Walter L. English III, John Clancy, John Shannon, Jennifer Hopper, Norbert Leo Butz, Michelle Federer and the Broadway Inspirational Voices Choir
This gospel hymn, which begins with an acapella intro from the song "Precious Lord," finishes the album in a most grand and hopeful manner. Unseen angels protect us at our most vulnerable times; when we are asleep in our bed, or during times of strife. "Softly like a morning's first glow unseen angels come stand by my side." Comfort us, angels.

Did I ovulate?
OK, so I had a REALLY long fertile period, which my instructor says is normal for a first ovulation after a baby. And then it dried up, for two days, but on the third day I had a day I haven't ever had before. I don't think I would have called it fertile (my normal fertile I mean), but it wasn't dry by any means. And then on day 4 or 5 after my fertile period ended I had terrible cramps for the next two days, and now here I am, cramps gone, and I didn't start my period or anything (I figured the cramps were it coming) and I'm just wondering...anybody had anything like this?
Re: Did I ovulate?
A pattern like that is pretty typical PP. However, I'd need to know details about the daily obsevations to see if you reached Peak or not. Did your instructor think it did?
Re: Did I ovulate?
I'm going through something similar! I thought I had O'd based on CM (I usually temp, but am just going off of CM until baby is STTN), but two days after what I thought was peak, I have strange CM and sensation that isn't BIP, but isn't really wet. So confusing. KUP if AF arrives!

New venue in Macau needs staff to offer six-star service
The best organisations realise the importance of recruiting on a continuous basis, not just when a job becomes vacant or as part of a once a year campaign.
Nowadays, good applicants are increasingly hard to find, so recruitment policies need to be flexible and market-orientated. That makes it possible to identify and attract candidates for specific advertised positions, as well as those whose abilities and industry experience can obviously be put to good use at any time.
Doing this entails a good understanding of the different recruitment strategies needed to generate interest among a diverse pool of high-quality applicants. Without that, a company can easily get too few applications and may also miss out on the chance to hire in-demand executives who are thinking about a move.
Not surprisingly, the Crown Macau, which is scheduled to open in the second quarter of 2007, has given careful consideration to such issues. "The aim of our recruitment drive is to find the best talent in Asia, who can provide the impeccable experience familiar to our clientele at Crown Melbourne," says CEO Greg Hawkins.
The new development will be the first six-star casino hotel in Macau and will target high rollers from around the world with upmarket entertainment facilities, elegant restaurants and a deluxe spa centre. There will be 216 deluxe guest rooms, including 24 VIP suites and eight presidential villas.
The luxurious 32-storey complex will have a six-storey casino, with total gaming space of around 17,000 square metres, housing over 200 gaming tables and more than 500 slot machines. In order to provide levels of service unsurpassed by other venues, staff will be needed for every key area, including the casino, bars, restaurants and spa.
"To achieve this, our recruitment process has already started," says Mr Hawkins. "There must be sufficient time to hire and fully train staff well before the grand opening." He adds that the company is committed to offering competitive remuneration packages, continuous in-house training, and an excellent working environment. It will make full use of experience gained in Australia, where its training and development programmes have won widespread recognition and numerous industry awards.
A series of special recruitment days will be held throughout the Asia-Pacific region. "Our recent recruitment fair in Zhuhai proved to be very popular and attracted over 2,000 applications," says Mr Hawkins. "The next open day will be at the Macau Tower in early November."
In addition, there will also be an extensive advertising campaign to attract further interest and all applications are being hosted by the company's recruitment website. This has up-to-the-minute information on vacancies and procedures, and is the place to find application forms for all positions.
The first vacancies to be filled will be for various roles in general administration, finance, casino and hotel operations, security, F&B, human resources, IT, and sales and marketing.
"Our unique positioning in the market ensures that people who work with us will contribute to this six-star identity with a higher level of professionalism and commitment than elsewhere," Mr Hawkins adds.

2. Dunkirk From Disaster to Deliverance - Testimonies of the Last Survivors (Large Print 16pt) - Sinclair Mckay
Largeprint (Paperback) Our price: £24.99 - Click book title for availability and further details
From the author of the Sunday Times bestseller The Secret Life of Bletchley Park When Churchill made one of the most inspiring speeches of the 20th century - 'we will fight them on the beaches' - he was giving thanks for the miracle of deliverance, the harrowing and breathless evacuation of over 338,000 troops from the beaches and harbour at Dunkirk. Churchill was determined it shouldn't be labelled a victory. He was already too late. Hours later, broadcaster JB Priestley was to call it 'an absurd English epic'. Those days of Dunkirk are still invoked now whenever the nation finds itself in any kind of crisis. But there is a wider story too that involves a very large number of civilians - from nurses to racing enthusiasts, trades union leaders to dance hall managers, novelists to seaside cafe owners. And even wider yet, a story that starts in September 1939: of young civilian men being trained for a war that was already 25 years out of date; and the increasing suspense - and occasional surrealism - of the Phoney War. The 'absurd epic' of Dunkirk - told here through fresh interviews with veterans, plus unseen letters and archival material - is the story of how an old - fashioned island was brutally forced into the modernity of World War Two.
3. The Secret Listeners The Men and Women Posted Across the World to Intercept the German Codes for Bletchley Park (Large Print 16pt) - Sinclair McKay
Largeprint (Paperback) Our price: £24.99 - Click book title for availability and further details
 Behind the celebrated code - breaking at Bletchley Park lies another secret...The men and women of the 'Y' (for Wireless') Service were sent out across the world to run listening stations from Gibraltar to Cairo, intercepting the German military's encrypted messages for decoding back at the now - famous Bletchley Park mansion. Such wartime postings were life - changing adventures - travel out by flying boat or Indian railways, snakes in filing cabinets and heat so intense the perspiration ran into your shoes - but many of the secret listeners found lifelong romance in their far - flung corner of the world. Now, drawing on dozens of interviews with surviving veterans, Sinclair McKay tells their remarkable story at last.
4. The Secret Life of a Fighter Command The Men and Women Who Beat the Luftwaffe (Large Print 16pt) - Sinclair Mckay
Largeprint (Paperback) Our price: £21.99 - Click book title for availability and further details
During the dark days of 1940, when Britain faced the might of Hitler's armed forces alone, the RAF played an integral role in winning the Battle of Britain against the Luftwaffe, thus ensuring the country's safety from invasion. The men and women of Fighter Command worked tirelessly in air bases scattered throughout the length and breadth of Britain to thwart the Nazi attacks; The Secret Life of Fighter Command tells their story. From setting up the ground - breaking radar systems along the coast of the Southeast of England, to the distribution of spotters of bombing waves coming along the Thames Estuary, the boffins who designed and built the guidance and detection structures to organise a winning defence umbrella, to the Wrens who plotted enemy movements and then conveyed this to the various RAF squadrons stationed in the UK's zonal defence system - - - - all of them played a part in maintaining the security over Britain. Through exclusive interviews with various members of this unique and world famous organisation, bestselling author Sinclair McKay tells the human story of how Britain survived the Nazi onslaught and enabled our Hurricanes and Spitfires to triumph over the German airforce.

Speaking to fans at yesterday's Wizard World Cleveland, director siblings Joe and Anthony Russo teased MCU developments to come in Captain America: Civil War and Avengers:Infinity War to their fellow hometown Clevelanders. On Civil War, they stated that they'll be twice as aggressive with Captain America as they were in Winter Soldier. Joe Russo explained----
"We really did a radical reinterpretation of Captain America in 'Winter Soldier'. We were twice as aggressive in tone and execution on 'Civil War.'
As for their earlier comments this year about 67 characters appearing in Avengers: Infinity War, the Russo's clarified that there are actually 68 and they described them as "distinct characters" not necessarily superheroes or main characters. Still, that's quite a large number of characters to keep track of and given the complexity of the MCU, though certain characters will have minor roles in Infinity War, those same characters could be the star or co-star of their own film/TV show/Netflix drama. That means it's not possible for Joe and Anthony to just casually insert them into their film without carefully considering what's happening in their own respective franchises.
"We have to tell a story and that story has to be built around the characters' emotional arcs. And we can only have so many of those."
