Violet Carrington is a freshman at Elton Hall University, but she's about to get more than just her degree…
Throwing herself into the insanity of college life, Violet makes new friends and even catches the eye of a handsome guy. Everything is as it should be, until one night out she crosses paths with a mysterious, sinfully attractive man. Not only does he manage to ignite a burning desire deep inside her, he also happens to be her new, off-limits college professor.
Professor David Berneli is only visiting Elton Hall, but a lot can happen in a year…
Everyone knows any personal relationship between professor and student is strictly prohibited. But somewhere in between lectures and after school events, Violet manages to dazzle him. She not only challenges David at every turn, but also tempts his every desire. No matter how hard they try to ignore the crackle of sexual tension between them, a few furtive glances quickly turn into clandestine meetings in his office.
By giving in to temptation, Violet and David fall deeper down the rabbit hole…
As the semester ticks on, Violet begins to question not only the whirlwind affair that threatens to consume them both, but David's desires as well. If he's not willing to risk everything for her, she'll have no choice but to leave the comfort of his arms without looking back.
Before any decision can be made, a looming threat comes out of the shadows, putting her and the passionate relationship she has with her professor in danger.
Now Violet must fight for her own life, and for the one she wants to spend it with…

Recently, A.M. Best Co. raised the financial strength rating of Pacific Compensation Insurance Company – a subsidiary of Alleghany Corporation (Y) – to "A-" from "B++". The rating agency also upgraded Pacific Compensation's issuer credit rating to "a-" from "bbb+". Further, A.M. Best changed the outlook for both the ratings to stable from positive.
The rating upgrade was based on the financial flexibility provided to Pacific Compensation by Alleghany as well as the support provided by Pacific Compensation's affiliate captive reinsurer, AIHL Re, LLC. The subsidiary's strong management team and business plans also supported the ratings, partly offset by weak underwriting results in the past and lack of product and geographic diversification.
A.M. Best does not expect any further upward revision in ratings in the near future. However, a downward revision is possible if Pacific Compensation's risk-adjusted capitalization level falls below the requirement for the ratings, the underwriting profits continue to remain weak or if the support provided by Alleghany or AIHL Re falls significantly.
Rating affirmations or upgrades from credit rating agencies play an important part in retaining investor confidence on the stock as well as maintaining credit worthiness in the market. We believe that the improved ratings will help Pacific Compensation and Alleghany retain investor confidence and help them write more businesses going forward, thereby boosting their results.
Alleghany currently carries a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy). Other property and casualty insurers with the same Zacks Rank are Montpelier Re Holdings Ltd. (MRH), Hilltop Holdings Inc. (HTH) and United Fire Group Inc. (UFCS).

-Taking a deep breath-
It's been a poor week on the novel-writing front. I've been sleeping badly, as per, and it's been a real fight to finish Buddenbrooks, a novel I haven't enjoyed. Having LB here, decorating the hall & stairs, has made me feel oddly self-conscious. Why is it that I can write in Starbucks but I can't write with a single other person in the house, who's not even remotely interested in what I'm doing? I am being a fule.
I also feel horribly disorganised on the domestic front; we now have 2 unusable washing machines crowding the kitchen, washing all over the bedroom floor, furniture in disarray due to decorating, and I haven't made any bread for ages. P put a kitchen knife through his hand last Saturday and can't play the guitar. It's all rather depressing, but -taking a deep breath- it's really no big deal and everything will be OK soon. We had a fantastic weekend in Portmeirion and we are spending next weekend in Amsterdam with G & K, who I still miss having as neighbours and I'm really looking forward to seeing them.
So Red the Rose is still pushing my buttons, and I've heard that Placebo are releasing a new album in March, so that's good. Well, it might be terrible, but the anticipation is still sweet.

Remote control of ventilation
Remote control heating and ventilation in a retail outlet.
"We were having major problems with high heating bills and poor ventilation at our Midroc Electro store in Valbo. As operations manager, I decided to let Telia Company perform what's known as a Quick Benefit Study, which they carried out in collaboration with their hardware partners Westermo and Beijer Electronics. The results of the study showed that it was possible to significantly improve the situation using automatic remote-control technology.
First, an industrial router from Westermo was installed which meant that we achieved the fastest data transmission possible via the 3G network. A programmable logic controller (PLC) from Beijer Electronics was then connected to the router allowing us to remote-control the heating and ventilation with maximum reliability. By using Multicom Security's Mobiflex system to log in all data was protected at the maximum security level we demand.
Even though we knew nothing about M2M before, we now benefit from a uniquely customized solution that is perfect for us. We've also received not only excellent training from Telia Company's business consultants but also constant support. I warmly recommend Telia Company to other businesses who are currently experiencing similar problems: for us they are now a thing of the past." - Adam Adamsson, operations manager at Midroc Electro
How our solution works
The solution consists of Multicom Mobiflex and an industrial 3G router from Westermo, which provides the fastest available transmission technology via Telia Company's 3G network. One advantage is that it can be installed in very demanding environments where reliability is of the utmost importance. A programmable logic controller (PLC) is then installed which can thereafter be controlled remotely. The PLC is administered via an operator panel from Beijer Electronics Automation, which makes it possible to adjust the heating and ventilation system via the data network. Finally, Multicom Security ensures that only authorized traffic can log in and access data by using fixed IP addresses.
Benefits of the solution
- PLC - programmable logic controller
- Router with 3G connection
- Automatic control of ventilation and heating system

dalthesis is LaTeX2e document class that is intended to meet the requirements for theses produced at Dalhousie University.
The documentation for dalthesis is provided in several different formats:
Since the summer of 2003, the Faculty of Graduate Studies has become stricter on adherence to the thesis formatting guidelines, and so changes had to be made to dalthesis. Some of these changes are quite significant and if you are upgrading from an older version of dalthesis, you will notice a difference in the format of your thesis. In particular, Grad Studies now requires the bottom margin to be strictly one inch. Sounds easy, right? Well, it's not! Allow me to explain.
Most pages in a thesis formatted with dalthesis will have the page number in the upper right-hand corner. Enforcing the proper margins for the top, left, and right edges of the paper is quite easy. With the top margin set, the correct bottom margin is achieved by setting the text height (LaTeX parameter \textheight) so that the text will end exactly one inch from the bottom edge of the paper. This is easily accomplished. However, not all pages have the page number in the top right-hand corner. The preface pages, as well as the first page of each chapter, have the page number centered at the bottom. And this number must be one inch from the edge of the paper. In order to achieve this and still have the top margin set as before, it requires setting \textheight to a new, smaller value for these pages. LaTeX was not designed to easily allow for such a situation. To quote from the LaTeX book by Lamport:
These parameters are all rigid lengths. They are normally changed only in the preamble. Anomalies may occur if they are changed in the middle of the document.
Normally \textheight is a constant that is set at the beginning of a document, but now dalthesis needs to switch \textheight between two possible values as the document is being processed.
To achieve a one-inch bottom margin, dalthesis was modified so that:
The new version of dalthesis has already been used by several people without any problem. Unfortunately, it is still possible that someone may encounter an "anomaly". When you process your thesis with the new version of dalthesis, scan the log file for any messages about large overfull \vbox'es. If there are none, then you are fine.
With the implementation of changes 1 and 2 mentioned above, most pages will now have their content exactly one inch from the bottom edge. However, due to LaTeX's (or rather TEX's) page-breaking mechanism, there may still be some pages that have a bottom margin that is larger than one inch. For example, if a section heading occurs at the very bottom of the page, LaTeX will leave some space at the bottom of the page and move the heading to the next page. Generally, it is considered better typographical design to have some extra white space at the bottom of a page than to have a "widowed" section heading.
Outlined below are some of the major changes between each version of dalthesis.
Some users have reported that the margins are incorrect with dalthesis. As far as I know, dalthesis does produce the correct margins as required by the regulations. If you are getting margins that do not appear correct (in particular, if the top margin is much shorter than one inch and the bottom margin is much larger), then please ensure that you are selecting the proper paper size in your LaTeX'ing process. To elaborate, when you process your document with latex, dalthesis uses letter size as the default paper size, so the dvi file will be correct. However, when you convert the dvi file to PostScript with dvips, dalthesis is no longer in control! The default paper size selected by dvips may very well be something other than letter size (it is quite often A4). To ensure that you are getting the proper paper size, pass the option '-t letter' to dvips.
If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions, please email me.

Pirates and Emperors is a brilliant exploration of the role of the United States in the Middle East that exposes how the media manipulates public opinion about what constitutes "terrorism". Chomsky masterfully argues that appreciating the differences between state terror and nongovernmental terror is crucial to stopping terrorism and understanding why atrocities like the bombing of the World Trade Center and the killing of the Charlie Hebdo journalists happen.

After a busy day and cooking dinner, too tired to eat anything, I went to bed early, only to wake up 2 hours later wide awake. It's 10pm on Friday night, the boys (17 & 24) were still up chatting and laughing, I was too wide awake to go back to sleep and ravenous from my 2 hour 'nap'
There was nothing on the 400+/600+ ?? (I don't even know how many channels we get, but it's in the hundreds and it's ridiculous) cable channels we subscribe to, honestly, why are we paying $100/month for this crap? There's never anything on when I just want to sit and watch tv, which is hardly ever
I made a salad, poured a glass of milk, sat out in the lounge room in my comfy chair and asked the guys is there something funny we could all watch, my son being the entertainment gatekeeper that he is, hooks up his Roku and we settle in for the night
He introduced me to Netflix "Master of None' starring Aziz Ansari, an Indian-American Comedian who I'd briefly seen before but didn't really know that much about
One episode turns into, "okay, we can watch another episode", then "sure let's watch one more", to "I have a big bag of new flavored chips somewhere", to "ok, I am still awake, I'll watch another one", to "ok, just one more episode", then binge watching," just one more episode before I go to bed", until we finished an entire series
It was light comedy, entertaining, and extremely watchable
Official Trailer:
I love Aziz Parents in the show, they are the funniest part because they are his real immigrant parents playing themselves. They had a tough upbringing in another country, plus one of his other fictional Asian friends parents who also was an immigrant grew up in Asia moved their family to America and had to find a new life here, it's pretty fun to hear/see their viewpoint as parents & immigrants
The guys grew up in America and didn't know very much about their heritage or parents upbringing
Then the awkward, goofy larger-than-life friend against Aziz tiny frame was pretty funny to watch (and no one you'd want dating advice from)
The boys and I had a great night together into the early hours of the morning, lots of laughs, it was a great binge watch…and I am not generally a binge watcher of anything
Check it out if you just want to chill at home and have nothing else to watch on tv

The Make A Plan Workshop
Do you have a dream, an idea or something BIG you want to make happen?
Are you frustrated with yourself for spending too much time thinking about your idea and not enough time actually making it happen?
I know how it is to be full on inspired about an idea and then kick myself for not getting started. It's annoying as hell!
Does this sound familiar? You sit down to work on an idea – to plan stuff out – and then feel completely overwhelmed? Or better yet, you start to work on something and then loose your motivation and drive to stick things out? Are you one of those people that start out strong and then abandon your project without finishing?
The problem many of us face is that we don't have an effective strategy for mapping out a powerful course of action and then sticking to it!
What if you could – without feeling overwhelmed – sit down and create an action plan to make any dream you want for your life happen? And then know exactly what there is to do and in what order, to get started?
Imagine if getting into action felt easy and free and empowering ~ because you would know that you were taking the right actions to get to where you want to go. What if you knew, without a doubt, that you were set up to succeed – to really make your dreams a reality?
Well, that's where The Make A Plan Workshop comes in.
This workshop is designed to walk you – step by step – through the process of planning out your dreams.
The Make A Plan Workshop makes planning so easy!
You will set clear goals with actual DATES (say goodbye to "someday") and map out specific things you want to accomplish.
You'll also get organized so you can start taking action (without feeling overwhelmed).
This a very effective way to plan – and will help you make BIG stuff happen!
What You'll Accomplish in This Workshop:
- Create a Vision for your project so it can be the backbone of your plan.
- Establish real results that are specific and give you an actionable game plan.
- Break up the BIGNESS of your project into bite sized chunks – so you don't get overwhelmed.
- Set up a sacred space that allows you to work and be productive.
- Get the kind of support that will make sure you succeed.
- Confront the voices in your head that say it can't be done (and learn how to quiet them).
- Start taking action and set yourself up to keep taking action.
The Make A Plan Workshop includes:
- A 42 page workbook with worksheets, ideas and step by step instructions for how to create a MAP for your dreams.
- 10 videos created by me to discuss further the ideas in the workbook. Each video is less than 10 minutes long, so you can squeeze them into your busy schedule.
- A month of loving email reminders to help you stay on track and support you to COMPLETE the workshop.
- Unlimited email support from me whenever you have a question or you get stuck.
This workshop is designed so that you can work through it at your own pace, going as fast or as slow as you need to go. But, at the end, if you do all the steps, you WILL have a complete plan to guide you as you get started on making your dream come true! How awesome is that?!
You will get instant access to the Workshop after you complete your purchase.
Ready to create your own MAP to make your dreams come true?
The Make A Plan Workshop – $29

What Others Have Said About The Make A Plan Workshop:
This workbook was one of the most instrumental tools in my creation process.
I will continue to use this layout for any creative processes in my future. It's just that good. I worked through it with a couple of phenomenal women (whom I connected with in one of the Visionary Mom Teams) and I totally recommend finding someone to walk beside you in this.
Alicia Theide
Milagro Girl
The workshop is friendly, approachable, and consistent in providing practical direction for pursuing your dream.
Lately, I've been feeling in so many ways that I haven't kept up with the growth in my life in the past few years and this has left me blinking with questions about my purpose while carrying around the weight of direction-less living. Truly, this workshop is turning up new ground for me, and I feel so re-energized already!
What we all need is a tangible way to reach and grab those dreams from the billowy clouds and stake them into the ground where they can take root and flourish. This is what the Make A Plan Workshop is about."

Having a brand new kitchen is something that lots of people want but can only dream of. Sadly keeping up to date and making our living spaces as nice as they can be is a costly and incredibly stressful business. Even a fresh coat of paint makes all the difference but isn't easy or quick.

Holi is one of those fleeting moments, like life itself when the country becomes colorful and come alive. Although many years have passed, I still have certain memories and images like photos of the holi I spent in my hometown amidst an intense struggle of water and colored powder that preceded the beginning of the hot summer season.
The truth, I do not know if my memories are of one holi or the mixture of several or maybe they are the only product of my imagination that over the years I made them into reality. In that town, set in the depths of a circle of mountains that looked solemnly, at the end of the night all the pajama buddies would gather to play with the colors that were bought for the occasion. It was also the time to finally put on those old clothes that mom would keep in the closet with the sole purpose of wearing them in holi.
We were children and we managed to play through the cobbled streets without fear. Despite the difference in communities, resentments did not succeed in truncating the joy of holi, because it was the moment when everyone splashed water balloons along the edge of the sidewalks to the beat of the music of the time.
The open hearts flowed with sensitivity and affection to embrace each other in a brotherly way. These are moments that the clock should not stop, but make them eternal to feel that we are all human beings. At that age, the happiness of life prevailed with a little sawdust of colors to simulate roads between the mountains.
We ran around after consuming sweetened drinks with friends with the raucous roar, the explosion of balloons and shouting holi hai. And our laughs were sloshing in the middle of the streets under the proud look of hills and mountains hoping that the fatigue would make us sleep.
The shops were filled with colors. It was quite a spectacle. And even though we did not go in to buy always, the mere fact of standing in front of the heaps of colors was enough. At holi it was time to de-stress as if there was no tomorrow. We thought of our most hated person, and throw all our rage in the form of a water balloon bullet at them as also playing with family, among friends, in a race of colors without competition.
My grandfather and my uncles prepared the thandai and other drinks, flavored with cinnamon, anise, coconut, and rum, while my grandmother, my mom, and my aunts would prepare pakoras and malpua in the kitchen. Sometimes my cousin would steal a little of the sweets prepared and give me to try.
Then my uncles would start the play of colors with the whole family, and my friends, who more than friends, are the family that life gave me. My grandparents sat on their hammock chairs and my grandfather, who was one of the most popular people in the city, left no neighbor to greet.
Holi! You are the nostalgia, the beautiful nostalgia of what I lived and will not be repeated because the protagonists are gone. Holi! You are the force that I have, to be the protagonist of the holi of the generations to come until I am no longer, and they also have the sweet memories and the obligation to star in thousands of holi in future.
Now, everything in me changed again. The enthusiasm, the magic, the desire to surprise everyone, to want to be together, everything came back to me, to sing, to play Holi with family and to share, holi turned out to be magic. Honestly, I cannot think of a better gift for all of us.
The sense of joy and unbridled fun have always remained in my memory today, and this memory, the memories of holi, makes me long for the days when a steaming dish of pakwan was seasoned with smiles of colours.

- 5 January update letter from the Secretary of State for Transport below
The ongoing disruption to rail services is having a detrimental effect on the health, quality of life and livelihoods of thousands of local residents. I share constituents' anger and frustration and I will do everything within my influence to improve the situation. Currently, it is of course of primary and critical importance that the industrial action is halted. I will explain my position on this below, however, I want to assure you that I have been seeking to minimize service disruption long before the industrial action started in April 2016, ever since the announcement was made to undertake the London Bridge Thameslink upgrade works from the beginning of 2015. These works, necessary though they are, have had a serious negative impact on service levels and reliability.
London Bridge Thameslink programme
Since September 2014 when service changes planned for the duration of the London Bridge works from 2015 became known, I was repeatedly in touch with Southern Rail to convey rail users' dissatisfaction at the withdrawal of a third of morning services and the diversion of services to London Victoria. I asked then for a fairer reconfiguration of services during the works and for a proportional reduction in season ticket prices. With no satisfactory response, I took up the issue with the Office of Rail Regulation and the Minister responsible for railways, unfortunately to no avail.
You will then recall that there was significant disruption at the beginning of 2015 when the London Bridge works began. I then took passengers' concerns to a meeting with the Secretary of State for Transport in January 2015. Then, and repeatedly since, I asked the Secretary of State to reduce ticket prices until the London Bridge works are completed in 2018 and to address the disparity between fares from Transport for London (TfL) Zone 6 (Coulsdon South) and stations further along the line [An annual season ticket to London terminals from Redhill now costs £892 more than from Coulsdon South; for Zone 1-6 travel the difference is £1,120]. After meetings I had with Network Rail, Southern Rail management and the Rail Minister in early 2015, I wrote again to the Secretary of State expressing my dismay at the operating arrangements which were disadvantaging local rail users. Replies stated that the Secretary of State was 'considering the case for reviewing compensation but I am unable to make any guarantees.'
Extension of Zone 6
In early 2015 the Reigate, Redhill and District Rail Users' Association, of which I am President, developed the case for TfL Zone 6 to be extended to Merstham, Redhill, Reigate, Earlswood, Salfords, Horley and Gatwick. I absolutely support this, as a way to reduce and simply fares, and I have been pressing for it since February/March 2015 when I wrote to Govia Thameslink Railway and the Secretary of State for Transport proposing Zone 6 at least on a provisional basis during the London Bridge works, with a reappraisal of zoning thereafter. This could have been implemented at the same time as Pay As You Go and contactless (which started in January 2016) as the Oyster card reading equipment was installed on Redhill line stations to Gatwick. The online petition for Zone 6 organized by the Rail Users' Association obtained support from almost 3,000 people and was presented to the Rail Minister by me and members of the Rail Users' Association in October 2015. Since then, I have written repeatedly to the Rail Minister, Claire Perry MP and her successor Paul Maynard MP, and to the Secretary of State for Transport, Patrick McLaughlin MP and his successor Chris Grayling MP, imploring them to examine and consider the business case for Zone 6. I met the Rail Minister again in February 2017 and he committed to looking into the case and agreed to meet members of the local Rail Users' Association. I also recently met TfL and Govia to continue to seek their support for rezoning under the Travelcard Agreement.
Protest and campaigning
At the Rail Users' AGM in March 2015, I explained that 'polite letters and meetings haven't yielded results' and, given the strength of feeling about the reduced services and lack of compensation, I called on commuters to protest by working from home on 1st June. I promised to write to the employers of anyone taking part to explain that the employee's travel to and from work arrangements have been so disrupted that they wish to protest by not travelling to work that day. By impressing upon employers the seriousness of the situation for their commuting employees, I wanted to enlist their support and provided template letters for them to send to Ministers and rail management. I publicized this throughout spring 2015 but only a handful of commuters took part.
I made reliability, fairer fares and compensation central to my campaign for re-election at the 2015 general election, including organizing a call for action endorsed by other candidates to show unity across the parties. I continue to make clear to Ministers and others the top priority I and constituents attach to improving the rail service.
Following the general election, I met the Rail Minister in May 2015 and the Secretary of State for Transport in June to again impress upon them the seriousness of the situation. Claire Perry MP announced that she was working with Network Rail to conduct a root and branch review of the problems on the Brighton Mainline to develop an action plan in conjunction with the train operating companies and that she would look at 'improving and targeting compensation' for Southern passengers. At this point, the Minister started to chair a weekly meeting of relevant DfT officials, Network Rail lead managers and train operating company heads to focus on the action plan's implementation.
Case for fair fares and compensation
In July 2015 I participated in a Commons debate on Southern Rail calling again for compensation, a review of Delay Repay (phased compensation from 2 minutes delay), and the extension of Zone 6. This was at the time when the new Govia Thameslink Railway management contract was coming into effect. Under this contract, the ticket revenues are passed directly to the Government rather than retained by Govia [See the Answer to my Written Question Govia Thameslink Railway: Finance (WPQ 46064), 15 September 2016]. Given the scale of these revenues, estimated to be £2.9 billion from 2015/16 to 2021/22 (though likely to be lower due to the industrial action), it is perfectly possible in my view for the Government to set aside some of these revenues for the purpose of properly compensating passengers and reducing fares. The Answer to my Written Question in March 2017 revealed that the Department for Transport received £49.8 million from Network Rail compensation payments in 2015-2016, making the extension of zonal fares affordable and proportionate. This is the point I have continually made because, whilst many operational aspects and the industrial disputes are largely outside the control of the Government, the collection and use of fares is something the Government can directly control. See my most recent letter on this to the Chancellor of the Exchequer below.
The announcement made in December 2016 to repay the equivalent of a month's travel as compensation is a welcome first step, but is in my view inadequate given the prolonged and continuing disruption. The changes to the Delay Repay compensation scheme, allowing passengers to claim compensation for train delays in cash rather than vouchers from July 2015 and providing compensation after 15 minutes delay for Southern passengers from December 2016, are also welcome but could go further.
In August 2015 the Office for Rail and Road proposed a £2 million fine on Network Rail for the disruption caused at London Bridge in early 2015. I wrote to the Chief Executive of Network Rail and the Rail Minister asking for the fine be used to compensate affected rail users, to no avail, and for wi-fi to be made available at East Croydon, Clapham Junction and Victoria (wi-fi has since been introduced at Reigate, Redhill and East Croydon).
In January 2016 I called a Commons debate on Redhill and Reigate rail, following further major disruptions. In March I spoke in another debate on the performance of Govia asking the Minister to use imagination and energy to address the unfairness rail users were facing with a rotten service. In June I took the Chairman of the local Rail Users' Association to meet the Secretary of State for Transport and, as soon as he was appointed in July, followed up the issues on reliability, pricing, investment and timetabling with the new Secretary of State, Chris Grayling MP, as well as the Chief Secretary to the Treasury. In August I took part in a protest march organized by the Campaign for Better Transport seeking compensation and a stronger voice for passengers. Their campaign called for a fares freeze; I argue that the circumstances are such that a fares reduction is justified. Regrettably, however, this has been ignored.
Legal action
I have also supported a former constituent who brought a case against Southern Rail in the small claims court regarding reduced and overcrowded services in 2014, on the grounds that the rail service provider breached its duties under the Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982. In October 2016 a judge overturned an earlier ruling of a district judge to strike out his claim and, before a hearing took place to which I offered to provide evidence, an out of court settlement was agreed. Whilst the details of the settlement are confidential, this clearly suggests to me that legal action on behalf of rail users affected so badly in 2015 and 2016 could be successful. I am therefore investigating whether it might be possible to organize a group action, perhaps funded by crowdfunding and publicized by me and the local Rail Users' Association. Separately, I met with the Chief Executive of Ombudsman Services to discuss how consumer redress in the rail sector can be improved.
Industrial action
Since April last year, the underlying problems on the rail network have been exacerbated by the totally unnecessary industrial action taken by the RMT and subsequently by ASLEF, whose leaders' calls for rolling industrial action are completely disproportionate to the issues at stake. The ongoing strikes are clearly negatively affecting the economic welfare of the region and indeed the country, as well as having serious personal impact. The prosperity of the area is largely dependent on a regular and reliable rail service not only for commuters to and from London, but also for the many local firms that rely on staff travelling to work by train. Unfortunately, as I was a backbench MP, I had no powers or means to intervene in industrial disputes. However, I do not believe that the unions should be allowed to prevent the modernization of our railway system where such modernization is proven to be safe and does not affect the working conditions or remuneration of rail staff. Please see below a recent letter from the Secretary of State for Transport, Chris Grayling MP, outlining the Government's position, which I support, regarding the industrial dispute. Also of interest is a recent letter below from Paul Maynard MP.
There would seem to be some wider union agenda in that, by wrecking the operational performance of the vulnerable Southern network whilst London Bridge upgrade works are taking place, the unions are advancing their cause for the re-nationalization of the railway system. This is not a legitimate union activity. In December I wrote to the Minister responsible for labour relations to ask that all legislative options are considered, such as mandatory and binding arbitration.
Infrastructure investment
The Thameslink project is long overdue and will offer a significant increase in capacity for passengers on Europe's busiest rail route, as well as transforming the ability of passengers to travel north to south across London and the flagships stations of London Bridge and Blackfriars. The £20 million fund for resilience improvements announced in September 2016 is welcome, but should be the basis for further sustained infrastructure investment. The fund will tackle problems on the Brighton Mainline by placing more rapid response teams on the Southern network, accelerating the replacement of worn track, and hiring extra staff at key stations including East Croydon and Gatwick.
I have met with Chris Gibb who has been tasked with identifying ways to address resilience problems and stressed the importance of improved track layout and signalling at key crossing points between Redhill/Reigate and London. Specifically, I sought a new platform on Reigate Station that can accommodate twelve car Thameslink trains to enable direct services to London; a flyover at Stoats Nest to enable trains using the Redhill line to cross over onto the fast track towards London; and re-tracking of the area immediately to the south of Redhill station.
As these issues are considered, I have continued to meet with the Secretary of State for Transport and questioned him on infrastructure spending for the rail network in Surrey in the House of Commons in November. I have also joined the All Party Parliamentary Group on Southern Rail to continue to apply pressure on Ministers and to urge funding and discuss solutions with them. I met the Prime Minister in December to convey constituents' concerns about the gravity of the current situation.
It is crucial that future services are configured in a way which will provide a better overall service on the Reigate and Redhill routes following the completion of the London Bridge works. Therefore, when Govia Thameslink Railway recently consulted on a draft 2018 timetable, I convened a local stakeholder group to press for improvements to the proposed timetable and I arranged a local public meeting in November for rail users to meet Govia to discuss the proposals and coordinate a response. I have endorsed the submission by the Reigate, Redhill and District Rail Users' Association seeking more direct trains to London Bridge and London Victoria, as well as the reintroduction of withdrawn direct services to the south coast.
In the short term, it is crucial that industrial action ceases as soon as possible, but it is also imperative that the underlying infrastructure, capacity, performance, reliability, frequency and pricing issues for passengers using local stations are addressed. These are areas in which I could apply some influence, so I have concentrated my efforts here.
I hope that improvement works at London Bridge and on the track will make a real difference to passengers, as will the new improved timetable, and the ongoing introduction of new trains across the network. In the meantime I, like you, remain utterly frustrated about the length of time it is taking to resolve the industrial action, improve reliability, and address the anomalously high fares being inflicted on local rail passengers for what can only be described as an appalling service.

VQS Sea Slug Surf Series
Saturday June 1st, 2002
Zuma Beach
Surf 3-6 feet
The first event of the 2002 VQS started off with the Sea Slug at Zuma Beach with hollow waves and 72 amped competitors of all ages battling out for all sorts of cash and prizes. With the sun making a showing thru the June gloom in time for the finals, all had a good time.
[IMAGE 1]In the Groms division final there were a couple of new Sea Slug finalists mixed with a couple of veteran finalists. In the end the experience won out and Matt Mohagen took the win beating out Cory Arrambide for the early season ratings lead and the all-important invite to the VQS Championship.
The Juniors division was a hard fought battle from the start. With obstacles such as pool toys to maneuver around and the tide on the rise, the juniors made a great showing. The final was all Colin Dodgson. Picking off a 7 on his second ride he continued the pace and took the prizes away from Bummy and newcomer Scott Dunton.
The Open division was a surprise as the person everyone had their money on finished 2nd. Nate Tyler after a slow start in his first heat set a pace nobody could match and took the win and the $150 in prize money. Nate found the waves with face and blasted a few turns making his friends proud and the judges job easy. In second was Yves Bright taking home $50.
Winning the Air show and getting the custom Sea Slug Air Hat was Bummy with an alley-op that earned him $50 bucks as well.

Holiday Eating Season Adds Up
The average American eats 600 additional calories per day between Thanksgiving and New Year's.
Translation: That's an extra six pounds. Women's Health has helpfully identified the worst six:
Worst Classic Holiday Drink
Eggnog, at 350 calories and 19 grams of fat, eggnog–even without the booze–is on the naughty list because it consists of milk, cream and eggs.
Worst Holiday Appetizer
Crab Cakes. When crab is blended with mayonnaise and then rolled in bread crumbs and cooked in a vat of bubbling fat, you end up with an appetizer that weighs in at 400 calories and 19 grams of fat. Each. That's more calories than three dozen shrimp.
Worst Holiday Party Cocktail
Gin and Tonic may taste light, but a gin and tonic has 210 calories and 22 grams of sugar, thanks to the tonic water. Choose Champagne instead for one-fourth the amount of sugar.
Worst Holiday Party Snack
Spinach and Artichoke Dip. In addition to the spinach and artichokes, this dip has mayonnaise, sour cream and cream cheese, which add up to a whopping 285 calories and 17 grams of fat per serving.
Worst Holiday Entree
Prime Rib, this coveted holiday cut of beef comes from one of the fattiest parts of the cow, which means you're ingesting 750 calories and 45 grams of fat with just one serving.
Worst Holiday Dessert
Pecan Pie, there's no pie that has more calories, fat and sugar than pecan. Even though some of the 810 calories and 65 grams of fat come from the healthy nuts, most come from the corn syrup and sugar filling.

Home>Tips and Advice>A licence to print money?
Whenever something becomes expensive (such as applying for a driver's licence), you can guarantee that there will be a host of fraudsters springing up pretending to save you money, when in fact all they are out to do is make money for themselves.
Here are is one scam that has come to light recently targeting all drivers, especially the young and less experienced, that we should be on the lookout for. It involves legitimate websites who offer a service that you don't need and that costs way beyond its value.
When it comes to applying for a passport, you can pay a small extra fee to have your local Post Office check over your form to make sure that there are no problems. This is often well worthwhile as a delay could cause serious problems with your holiday or travel arrangements.
Sadly, many fraudsters have been inspired by this and have set up unofficial 'official looking' websites offering to help you apply for your driver's licence, or make changes to your existing licence. These companies do little more than fill out the form for you, using the details you supply, yet they can charge over £100 for the privilege, which is more than the licence itself costs.
One such website found via a sponsored link offered what looks like an impressive list of services for their fee of £50 – £107. Yet on closer inspection, this amounted to little more than checking your licence application form and photo and sending them off. If you needed any extra help, that was available via a premium rate phone line at over £1.50 per minute – and one can only imagine the delaying tactics used to keep you on the line as long as possible.
Another website, purporting to be the DVLA Helpline, offers advice at £1.53 per minute… They do admit that the same advice is available free from the DVLA, and even provide a link – so you've been warned – which is how they get away with it.
At the end of the day, it is simple enough to complete a driving licence application form yourself. If you are unsure, simply ask a friend or relative to check it for you. If you are applying for your provisional licence and you aren't used to filling in official forms, ask a parent, older brother or sister or your tutor at college. They won't think you are stupid; most people hate filling in forms and will be only too happy to help.
What's more, if you do have any problems, all the information and help you could possibly need can be found free of charge at the DVLA website, or you can call or write to them for free help.

Mother Cat stops Traffic
It was a sunny summer afternoon, July 29, 1925. Harry Warnecke, a photographer for the New York News, got a phone tip that a cat trying to carry its kittens home was tying up traffic because a policeman had stopped the cars on a busy street (Centre Street) to allow it to cross. Warnecke arrived after the event was over, but he convinced the policeman and cat's owner to allow him to recreate the scene. Despite the policeman's initial reluctance, the cat's inclination to cross the street diagonally instead of in front of the cars, and furious honking motorists, Warnecke finally got his shot — after three attempts.
When the picture ran, the New York News was besieged with letters and requests for prints. A few days later, the helpful policeman received a letter of commendation from the Police Commissioner.

[…] too much time reading it tonight when I should be in bed, I might as well share it with you too. This is most definitely not the most iconic photo on the blog, but it's the one I'm linking […]
I believe Harry Warnecke is the same that invented a three color seperating camera (createing pre-press negatives) that allowed the New YOrk Daily News the ability to publish color photo's in their Sunday edition well ahead of George Eastman's color photographic film based process.
That was America.Dreamland full of good people.now that cat would be ran over by school bus!

CCTV FARCE: Surveillance society continues to grow with cameras for one in every 10 Brits
BIG Brother is watching us more closely than ever with the number of CCTV cameras reaching an astonishing SIX MILLION - or one for every 10 people in Britain.
CCTV cameras and monitors
Surveillance commissioner Tony Porter warned cameras were now recording almost every aspect of our lives across the length and breadth of the country.
He said the real number is much higher than six million when automatic number plate recognition cameras, police bodycams and video drones are added to the total.
It is estimated that 20 per cent of the world's surveillance cameras are in Britain despite it being home to less than one per cent of the global population.
A CCTV camera keeps a close on the streets around Westminster
My concern is about the introduction of poor surveillance that doesn't benefit society
And Mr Porter, who has been drafted in to try to curb the country's surveillance, said he wants to ensure cameras are there to protect members of the public rather than spy on them.
He has said: "Technology can support law enforcement and protect society.
"My concern is about the introduction of poor surveillance that doesn't benefit society.
"We have millions of cameras in this country and Europeans look at us askance that our society actually accepts the volume of cameras we do."
More and more CCTV cameras are being installed in the UK
Mr Porter said local authorities should follow a new code of practice to ensure they are installing 'surveillance by consent' and fears the 'default response' is to put up cameras in public spaces when it is not appropriate.
The six million figure was contained in a draft national strategy for managing CCTV in England and Wales, published by Mr Porter.
The former counter-terrorism officer said: "These figures are indicative of the scale of surveillance yet give no real indication whether surveillance is necessary nor of compliance with good practice or legislative requirements."
A CCTV camera records the coming and goings at London's King's Cross station
Public bodies, councils and businesses are under increasing pressure to reveal exactly how many cameras they have and what use they serve and many stand accused of failing to carry out annual reviews of their CCTV networks to ensure they are fit for purpose.
When one West Midlands council did so, this resulted in a cull of its ineffective cameras which saved the public £250,000.
Campaigners say not enough is being done to balance the need for CCTV to protect communities while maintaining the privacy of individuals.
One group said a 'strong and robust regulatory system' needs to be established to stop cameras blighting our streets.

Historical Investigations Unit: Relatives get meeting after being left in dark
The Department of Justice (DOJ) has agreed to meet the families of victims over concerns about new legislation regarding the Historical Investigations Unit.
The meeting will be at 2pm next Wednesday, August 26, in the Maldron Tower Hotel in Londonderry.
It was organised following lobbying from victims after it emerged that the DOJ had held a series of stakeholder workshops about the legislation across the province recently. Victims say they were neither invited to the workshops nor consulted.
"They're talking about stakeholders being invited, but I'd have thought victims' families included stakeholders," said campaigner Kate Nash, whose brother William was killed during Bloody Sunday. "Yet none of my family nor any of the families I know were made aware of this."
Ms Nash said she only learned about the stakeholder meetings and the legislation a few days ago via a Facebook post from the Pat Finucane Centre.
"Why do we have to set up another body [to deal with historical crimes] when we already have one that won't cost anything extra to set up - the justice system?"
Victims campaigner Ann Travers, sister of IRA murder victim Mary Travers, said she had not been aware of the workshops nor of the legislation, even though she is a member of the Victims and Survivors Forum. "I'm upset that once again victims have been kept in the dark, and only for the media they wouldn't know until it's too late."

A RAPID fall in house prices is the biggest threat to the UK economy this year, according to a new survey.
More than three-quarters of 21 senior economists polled by the Financial Times said a sharp downturn in the market was the most likely risk to economic stability.
Falls of 20% or more could trigger lower consumer spending and a downward spiral in confidence, they said.
Economist Andrew Oswald of Warwick university said a large dip in nominal house prices leading to lower confidence was likely.
Sushil Wadhwani, former Bank of England monetary policy committee member, said the housing market correction "could be deeper and longer lasting" than the bank's current forecast.
Others saw the house price crash risk as real, but thought there was only a moderate likelihood of serious consequences that could not be offset with lower interest rates.
A majority of those surveyed also believed chancellor Gordon Brown would miss his targets for public borrowing.

Functional Analysis in Clinical Treatment summarizes the use and success of functional analytic approaches in the treatment of psychopathology. Functional analytic approaches focus on moderating the environmental variables that can have a large impact on the clinical problem. Behavior analytic concepts have been popular since the 1950s and now are regularly integrated into behavior therapy both for case formulation and treatment of a wide range of clinical problems.
Functional Analysis in Clinical Treatment begins with a review of the common learning processes involved in behavior change, and its relevance to case formulation and intervention with a wide range of populations. Subsequent chapters review use of functional analysis for treatment of the major DSM-IV categories. Each chapter reviews current diagnostic criteria, describes a functional analytic model of that disorder, and functional analytic assessment and intervention. Each chapter additionally includes a case study to help illustrate functional assessment, development of a treatment plan, and evaluation of outcome.
Written by practitioners with extensive clinical experience and established track records of empirical research, this book will be useful to clinicians treating a wide variety of disorders. Chapters discuss use of functional analysis in treating developmental disabilities and pediatric disorders, ADHD, substance abuse, schizophrenia, mood disorders, anxiety, sexual disorders, eating disorders, personality disorders, and impulse control disorders.
Reviewer:Gary B Kaniuk, Psy.D.(Cermak Health Services)
Description:This book discusses the use of functional analytic approaches to various DSM-IV categories. It differentiates structural from functional theoretical assumptions, stating the central thesis in the first chapter: "Psychopathology, like other behavior, is to be operationalized, its sources of variation are to be tracked down, and its functional relationships must be discovered.
Purpose:The purpose is to review "functional analytic approaches to case formulation and treatment for all the major categories of psychopathology." According to the preface, "functional approaches to this psychopathology are characterized by focusing on current context; environmental variables that have a large impact on the presenting problem and that can be readily manipulated; operationalization of behavior and reliable measurement of its relationship to the environment; and case formulation and idiographic treatment that are grounded in behavioral concepts and aim to produce large, socially, and personally meaningful changes (Baer, Wolf, & Risley, 1968) that address goals that society recognizes as important, that use methods and achieve outcomes that are valued (Wolf, 1978).
Audience:The book is intended for clinicians treating a wide variety of disorders, but graduate students studying behavioral analysis in clinical and/or counseling psychology programs also would benefit greatly from this material.
Features:The first three chapters address theoretical issues (concepts and methods). The next 17 discuss specific disabilities/disorders such as ADHD, dementia, brain injury, schizophrenia, mood disorders, and eating disorders, to name a few. The authors cover diagnostic criteria, functional analytic approach to assessment, and functional analytic-based interventions. Each chapter includes a case study and the final chapter provides direction for future research. The book is easy to read and includes instructional tables and figures. The case studies are invaluable, showing how the author conceptualizes the problem and how behavioral methods are applied. In the final chapter, the passion behind a functional approach is brought to hopeful conclusion when Cynthia Anderson states: "a functional approach to human problems has many advantages relative to the more prevalent approach -- classification based on topography of responses. A functional approach provides a parsimonious framework for conceptualizing human behavior -- one that is applicable to all behavior exhibited by humans and nonhumans. As importantly, a functional approach is linked directly to development of interventions, as a functional assessment identifies environmental variables that might be manipulated to effect a change in behavior."
Assessment:This book would be a wonderful acquisition for the individual who wants to know more about how behavioral interventions are applied to various psychological disorders. It is well written and covers a wide range of DSM-IV disorders. Graduate students would benefit from seeing how strategies are formulated and behavioral techniques applied.

Everything Everywhere general counsel and company secretary James Blendis has completed the restructuring of his 45-strong legal team, with three lawyers each from Orange and T-Mobile winning top roles.
The integration of Orange's and T-Mobile's legal operations kicked off when the merger that created Everything Everywhere went live on 1 July 2010.
Blendis, who was general counsel and company secretary at T-Mobile, now oversees six legal divisions.
Legacy T-Mobile lawyer Lisa Ball has been given the role of director of consumer legal affairs, while Matthew Redding and Guy Perring, also from the T-Mobile side of the tie-up, have become director of joint ventures and partnerships and director of dispute resolution respectively.
From the Orange team, Colin Caldwell becomes director of legal governance, Tom Speed has taken on the director of business legal affairs role and Sonia Bellamy has become director of operational legal affairs.
The legal team is based across the company's offices in Bristol, Hatfield and London.
As reported by The Lawyer last year (19 July 2010), Orange UK general counsel Alexander Lunshof moved into a senior role in the legal team of parent company France Telecom following the merger.

President Barack Obama posed for an official photograph of his Cuba trip in front of a mural of the infamous Cuban revolutionary Che Guevara on Monday. Video of the event shows Obama specifically choosing the location for the picture.
Guevara played in an instrumental role in the communist takeover of Cuba under Fidel Castro, leading guerrilla forces against the Batista regime. Castro placed him in charge of the notorious La Cabana Fortress prison, where he ordered the execution of upwards of hundreds of inmates without a trial.
The Castro right hand man later became president of Cuba's national bank and shifted the country's trade relations from the United States to the Soviet Union, according to History.com.

In 1965, Guevara left the Castro regime with the intent of exporting the ideas of the Cuban communist revolution to other parts of Latin America. He was captured and killed by the Bolivian Army in 1967, seeking to foment rebellion in the South American nation.

"It is a great honor to pay tribute to Jose Marti, who gave his life for independence of his homeland. His passion for liberty, freedom, and self-determination lives on in the Cuban people today," Obama wrote in dark ink in a visitor's book. Marti died at the age in 42 in a battle with Spanish troops in 1895.

At every income level and under almost all economic circumstances, Canada's tax system favors the old over the young, says the Vancouver Sun.
For example:
- Net taxes -- federal, provincial and municipal -- for a senior couple in British Columbia (B.C.) with an income of $30,000 (about US $28,082.45) typically total just under $3,000 (about US $2,808.25 ) a year.
- Yet the average family of four trying to scrape by on the same income coughs up almost $1,000 (about US $936.08) more than that, plus the mandatory Employment Insurance (EI) and Canada Pension Plan (CPP) premiums imposed on every wage earner.
- Never mind that seniors have fewer expenses and are more apt to own a mortgage-free home (and, if they do, it doesn't affect their many tax breaks -- which range from extra grants to help pay property tax to extra income-tax deductions).
And this preferential treatment just keeps getting better. The last two budgets to affect B.C. seniors -- from Jim Flaherty in Ottawa and Carole Taylor in Victoria -- both sweeten the pot still more, says the Sun.
Flaherty was the biggest sugar-daddy:
- He passed income splitting for seniors -- a policy that won't affect all older citizens, but is a huge boon to couples who live largely on the pension income of just one partner.
- He also increased the age deduction -- a cash gift to anyone over 65 who pays income tax.
Taylor's generosity was more subtle:
- She reduced the age at which a homeowner can indefinitely defer property tax payments from 60 to 55.
- The deferred taxes must be paid when the home is sold, but the terms are fabulously favorable -- an interest rate two points below prime that isn't compounded like a normal mortgage.

I never claimed there was anything special about me, you are just making that up.
I am bonded very closely with my children and grandchildren, they were raised in loving environments, we taught them tolerance and acceptance of others different than themselves.
Hopefully your children will also grow up and beyond the terrible parenting they receive.

Monthly reporting of Month end closing has been superseded by the 8:15 which already documents this on a daily basis.
You come on here making wild and unsubstantiated claims about other peoples children, thought I would return the favor
Children are pretty resilient, hopefully yours will grow beyond your shallow and terrible parenting
My children are grown and successful, and having children of their own, passing on our teachings of love and generosity and tolerance.
They are special to me, and to one another, but I assume that is true of most children that do not have hateful and intolerant parents like you

The fact is hunk, children in default family situations already have MORE assistance then children in the natural family setting.
All of this begs the issue; At it's most basic essence, marriage is a cross cultural constraint on evolutionary mating behavior.
Gay couples are a direct defective contradiction of the primary goal of evolution. Literally 'unmarriage'.
All of the necessary and deserved rights and protections are available through civil unions.
Moreover, if homosexuals want validation of their orientation, establish your own relational identity without imposing an imposter relationship on marriage. Even a child can see the difference. Especially if one couple is mom and dad. The only natural ones they will ever have.
Glad you are dealing with your health issues. The weight struggle only increases with age.
I'm bored with opinions too, that is why I focus on posting facts. It is that 'gorilla grip' on reality that is the primary reason I have thrived with my mutations.
As to your curiosity, I'm happy to comply. I have the DNA of both a male and female (genetic chimera), however, my vagina is none functioning. My parents decided to raise me as a male (initially unaware of the DNA condition). In hind site, that was a good choice.
In appearance and behavior, I am masculine, but interestingly, lesbians tend to hit on me. When I am around a lesbian couple, it has created some 'difficult' situations... The best I can relate it to is how many women are very attracted to gay men.
Frankly, while I have serious genetic issues, I think homosexuals have a much more difficult cross to bear. Sexual attraction is very strong in most cases. I assume my brain DNA is male, and have a healthy heterosexual attraction. Having said that, as difficult as it is, I think the better option for homosexuals is to pursue as best they can a heterosexual lifestyle.
My experience with transgendered is that sex-change is rarely satisfying. I think that is a key reason main stream medical facilities stopped performing the change. Hence, I have the same opinion about dealing with the condition.
My assumption is that you are very close to transgendered if you are as butch as you indicate. What do you attribute your 'mellowing' to, if I understand you correctly?

Red Supplements' Coffee Review: Are You Drinking Low-Quality Coffee?
Are you consuming the highest quality of coffee available to you?
I doubt it.
Most people don't either.
So don't feel bad about your past coffee drinking habits.
But once you taste any of the three coffees sold by Red Supplements, you'll never go back to that weak, GMO-filled crap you are currently drinking.
I hate to admit it…but I used to drink crappy coffee too.
Of course, I didn't think it was too bad at the time. It wasn't amazing; but it got the job done.
Only once you see how good coffee can be, do you know what you were missing the whole time.
Other products by Red Supplements:
They're all excellent and highly recommended.
What Makes Coffee by Red Supplements So Special?
Red Supplements sell three types of coffee:
- RED Coffee
- BLACK Coffee
- GOLD Coffee
All three taste amazing in my opinion.
I have no idea why but you'll see for yourself when you take your first sip.
I will always remember the first time I tasted the wonderfully rich flavour of RED Coffee.
Like many others, I had no idea how big the difference between good and bad coffee is.
I thought it was all more or less the same…I mean, it's just coffee, right?
While it is "just coffee", the coffee sold by Red Supplements shouldn't be confused for the crap you'll find at your local supermarket.
Perhaps I've just been unlucky and always picked the wrong brand of coffee.
But I doubt it.
Coffee by Red Supplements has consistently tasted very good (at least in my opinion).
Hopefully, we'll see major chains start selling these in the future.
Until then, you'll have to order online.
You can do that by clicking here.
Which Coffee Should You Choose?
There are currently three types of coffee beans available at Red Supplements.
Personally, I usually order RED Coffee because that's the one I like best.
However, you probably have a different preference so I recommend you try all three at least once.
Just give each type a fair shot and you'll know which tastes best to you.
You can even get a nice discount by ordering the Three Coffee Combo as opposed to getting single bags.

Mahoraba Episode 6
Tamami asks a favor of Shiratori and even though he's tired from being kept all night partying, she blackmails him with a picture of him and Kozue and he ends up doing it anyways. She takes him to her (and Kozue's) school, which is an all girls' school, to get something she left there. Along the way they meet a few interesting characters including the president of the Occult Club that Tamami is an inactive member of. They also meet a couple archery girls and several others while Tamami calls Shiratori a pervert in front of all of them. The item that Tamami forgot was a very heavy bonsai tree which she makes Shiratori carry home.
When they finally make it home Shiratori and Tamami talk to each other through the wall in the bath. Tamami asks him how he feels about living there, and Shiratori decides it really isn't all bad. As he is ready to finally get some sleep, everyone decides to party in his room again all night... (and Tamami reveals that she can carry the bonsai, and juggle it, very easily all by herself!)
Cute episode that revealed a little more of Tamami's personality and her background. You can tell that she really loves Kozue and she's using her time to test Shiratori to make sure he is a good match for her. Unfortunately, she kind of doesn't use the best of methods to do this, but at least they're effective and funny!

Formed in 2009 in Oahu, Hawaii, The Green blends roots reggae with traditional Hawaiian vibes. Their self-titled debut album was named iTunes Best Reggae Album of 2010. "The Green" has sold over 15,000 copies, and includes the hit song "Love I". "There's plenty of invention, not imitation, which should propel The Green to the stratosphere reserved for few stars" (Honolulu Advertiser).
Born Kimie (pronounced Kimi-ay) Kauikeolani Miner, in Hawaii, this 25 year old singer/songwriter has developed an eclectic musical style all her own. Her parents, of Hawaiian and Portugese decent, noticed her unmistakable talent at a very young age. "I fell in love with music as a child and it naturally just became apart of my life. It is my mother, my brother, my best friend, and my first love. No matter where I am in my life, I know I can always turn to music."
A self taught guitarist and song writer, Kimie grew as a musical artist while boarding at Kamehameha Schools in Honolulu, HI. "India.Arie inspired me to pick up a guitar when I was 14 years old and write from my heart. Other artists like Lauryn Hill and Erykah Badu showed me how to be an individualist and remain true to myself."
Kimie's signature style weaves acoustic soul, reggae, hawaiian with a touch of R&B and funk, into cool sultry melodies. Her free spirit can be heard through her lyrics touching on love, life, and relationships. "When something happens in my life, whether good or bad, I can almost immediately hear it being sung to a melody. Each situation creates a different mood. The words follow." Her lyrics prove universal, spanning race, gender, and age.
Kimie has toured the west coast opening for reggae pioneer Barrington Levy. She has also collaborated with reggae's most prolific production team, Sly and Robbie, She has traveled the world, living and recording in Jamaica, Hong Kong, Tahiti and Hawai'i.
