How it Works

How does it work?
The sound track GENTLY produces energy over the full human hearing spectrum (20Hz – 20KHz) with an embedded pulse that gently eases the brain to the sleeping state also known as the Alpha state that induce drowsiness. The amount of energy is controlled by the parent by means of the music players' volume control.
The Instant Baby Sleep sound track is delivered as a internet download in a high-quality MP3 format and may be played back using a Stereo / Hi-Fi / Computer Speakers / Laptop / Car radio / MP3 player / Compact Disc player / Cell phone / I-pod etc. Purchasing the sound track includes a license to burn 2x CD's for personal use. Most people use one CD for the home and one in a motor vehicle for road-trips.
Safe to use:
The sound track is a digital remodelling of a natural occurrence. It is completely safe to use for all ages of children. It is used by hospitals / play groups / doctors / paediatricians and nurses. We were happy to find out that the Instant Baby Sleep sound track is also used in a Neonatal I.C.U. We do suggest that the sound track is not used with headphones simply because it is difficult to judge the volume.
Tell me more…
The human senses (babies & adults) are subtly engaged as the vibrations of the sound track is heard and even felt by the person resulting in a naturally relaxed sate.
It is most effective with babies and children but may be used for adults and toddlers as well.
* Efficiency is increased with repeated use as part of a "sleeping routine".
Who created the Instant Baby Sound track?
The sound track was created by a professional sound-Engineer at the Megaphone Media recording studio in South Africa. Megaphone Media is a broadcast quality facility operating world class sound engineering equipment.
Other qualities and characteristics:
Filters out house noises like phones ringing and doors slamming
May be used to put a group of children to sleep (Example: play group or crèche)
Babies / adults hears and feels the vibrations from the sound track
Helps to lengthen sleep pattern
Prevents waking up during the light sleeping phase
Can be use safely in a motor vehicle to calm or put children to sleep.
The sound track can be used by anyone (mom / dad / baby sitter/ grandmother etc.) as no skills are required.
The child / baby falls asleep faster every time that the sound track is used
May be used for adults with insomnia or for "power-naps"

OXFORD, Miss. - Sophomore Kristie Krueger finished fourth to lead the Georgia women's cross country team to a fourth-place finish at the Southeastern Conference Championships on Saturday morning.
The Georgia men left their 8k course with a fifth-place finish behind senior Bejan Abtahi's 21st-place finish.
It was the Bulldogs' best finish since also taking fifth in 2006. Alabama (56) won the men's race as Arkansas (61) finished second, Auburn (86) took third and Florida (120) was fourth.
On the women's side, Florida (24) won while Tennessee (80) and Arkansas (87) finished ahead of the Lady Bulldogs (118), respectively.
Krueger finished in 21 minutes, 17.80 seconds in the 6k race to lead Georgia. Senior Bridget Lyons, who is a co- captain with Krueger, was the Lady Bulldogs' second finisher after taking 11th (21:45.03).
After sitting out the 2008 season, Abtahi had the best finish of his career at an SEC meet after taking 21st (25:39.87) for the Bulldog men. Senior Dustin Tetley, who joins Abtahi as the team captains, was 25th overall after registering a time of 25:54.98.
Georgia returns to action at the NCAA Regional Championships in Tuscaloosa, Ala., on Saturday, Nov. 14.

Nicholas from Delta Junction, Alaska writes,
will pyrethrum work on killing carpenter ants?
Evergreen Pyrethrum Concentrate is labeled in general for ants. According to the label you
will mix 1/4 to 1/2 of a fluid ounce of Evergreen Pyrethrum Concentrate per gallon of water.
We recommend using Dominion 2L when treating for Carpenter Ants as a perimeter spray.
For carpenter ants, use 0.6 fl. oz. per gallon of water to treat around the perimeter of a structure, concentrating on areas where pests may enter the structure. If you are seeing activity inside and outside the home, we recommend using our Carpenter Ant Kit #2.

Many belly rubs for you on this special day.
Gerty is my Beagle. She likes sleeping, bird hunting, and of course, eating. The strange thing about her is that she doesn't howl, she just barks. She knows how to crawl, twirl, shake, and go through my legs and back. Sometimes she will bite, but mostly she's the best dog in the universe!!Add to Favorites

I stay here while in the area competing with my two dogs in agility. The Shilo Inn and Suites is pet friendly. I had read all the bad reviews but I must say my experience was great! The service was prompt and friendly, the room was clean and the bed was really comfortable which surprised me. Some of the best sleep I have ever gotten at a 2-3 star hotel chain!! Lots of places to walk the dog, but several rabbits make the area home so a tight leash is needed. The only downside is the parking is a bit strange...the property is built on a hillside, it is southern CA after all...and the parking lot has some strange angels to it and the spaces are more for compact cars. The site does have a parking garage but it was empty and bit spooky for me.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):

Up until now the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers have never had a complete DVD release. There were some compilation VHS tapes sold throughout the 90's, but nothing ever complete. Fans who wanted to see every episode of the show would have to watch bootlegs taped off of TV, where the show has been shown on a few different channels in different forms.
But Time Life has stepped in and hopes to fill that void with it's complete 40-DVD, 338 episode set of the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. This has the whole seven seasons up through Power Rangers Lost Galaxy and includes all the seasons with the "original" cast. Take a trip back in time when we all wanted to have Kimberly as our girlfriend.
Although I liked Power Rangers well enough, that's not why I'm writing about this DVD release. Time Life has teamed up with Bandai to produce a special exclusive action figure for the release. Time Life knows how to do DVD releases, as they always go above and beyond for their big box sets, but this is the first time I recall them using an action figure promotion.
Unfortunately, the figure is an odd one. It's the Red Ranger in the Green Ranger's armor. I don't recognize that from a particular episode, but maybe it was one I missed. Still the idea of an exclusive figure is cool. However the figure looks to be the same semi-crappy Bandai releases we've seen in the states for some time. It would have been much cooler to have a FiguArts exclusive. Hopefully this means more action figure promotions in the future from Time Life, though!
Still if you're a big Power Rangers fan and want to see them in the best quality available, with tons of bonus stuff including the figure, you can order it from Time Life for Zordon's price of $220!
And of course if you like Power Rangers, you'll want to check out our Ranger reviews of Red Samurai Ranger, Retrofire Jungle Fury Jungle Pride Megazord, RPM Wolf Ranger and my personal favorite Super Legends Lord Zedd.
5 Responses to Power Rangers Comes to DVD with Exclusive Figure
Hmm… that's kind of a crappy exclusive, seeing as how that assortment was actually sold in stores — and was fairly easy to find later on at Ross and the like.
I'm inclined to think those figures are still kinda cheap on the aftermarket, but I hesitate to check eBay to find it. Depressing, man.
Oh wow, you're right. So much for it being an "exclusive" figure. I don't like the big arms and little heads on these guys. Maybe they'll tweak it for the DVD release, but I doubt it. I don't recall seeing those figures, but I kinda stopped paying attention to MMPR figs a while back.
It was from an episode, I think it was a multiparter where the green ranger was losing his powers.
Ah, been a long time since I seen that saga.
It was the episode where Tommy and Jason had to work together to capture the Action Figure Transport Zord… aka the Brontosaurus Zord. They were fighting so Zordon sent them to tame the Zord or something and when Tommy got hurt he gave Jason his shield so he could finish the job… Wow I hate that I remember that

iPhone 3G S Game Buyer's Guide
June 19, 2009 - Did you stand in line all morning to get a new iPhone 3G S? It's astounding that even on its third iteration of the device, Apple can still count on snaking lines of consumers wrapping around their retail outlets, pressing greasy fingers against immaculate glass storefronts in hopes that they will be the proud first owners of the latest iPhone. Although, if you read our rundown of the iPhone 3G S and check out its newest features -- lightning fast processor, improved camera with video recording, on-board compass, and more -- maybe it's not such a surprise that tens of thousands of people skipped breakfast this morning to buy one. Well, before you recover from your retail ordeal with a well-deserved afternoon nap, you really should load that new iPhone 3G S up with some apps. And not just any apps, either: you need to put some games on that thing. (Granted, no games yet use the new functionality of the S, like the compass.) Sure, it's cool that your new iPhone can buy movie tickets or track a Fedex shipment, but doing those things are nowhere near as fun as silently hunting the worst villains of the Crusades or playing PopCap's hellzapoppin' riff on pachinko. So, here are seven games you absolutely should put on your brand-new iPhone 3G S, toot sweet.
Michel Guillemot on Apple, 3.0, and Tribal Gaming
June 12, 2009 - Guillemot is a proud man that is absolutely thrilled about his company's success on the iPhone and their "preferred status" with Apple -- which he truly believes has been earned. "Apple appreciates that we are trying to push the platform," says Guillemot. This comes after Gameloft revealed on-stage the next installment in its long-running Asphalt racing series, which will make full use of many of the new features in the upcoming 3.0 OS update, such as in-game purchases and the ability to control your music from within the game. The game elicited a largely positive reaction from the crowd at the WWDC keynote, particularly when the demo showed up a sweeping camera angle of a car flying through the air after a daredevil jump.
Game of the Month: April 2009
April 30, 2009 - April was a solid month for handheld, mobile and downloadable games, which more than made up for the relatively thin showing on the major home console platforms. For the first time in a long while, IGN's Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 editors chose "nothing" as their game of the month rather than bestow the coveted award on an unworthy game. Such an occurrence makes endangered bamboo-eating quadrupeds unhappy, but don't blame us – blame the game publishers who decided not to release very many good Xbox 360 and PS3 games in April.
Assassin's Creed iPhone Review
April 23, 2009 - If Assassin's Creed on the iPhone looks somewhat familiar to you, that's because it was released in 2008 on the Nintendo DS. However, the year that divides the two versions has been very kind to Altair. For a fraction of the original price of the DS game, iPhone gamers are getting a full-length adventure with significant visual and audio upgrades. So, yes, this is a port -- but this is the kind of port I could really get used to seeing.
Assassin's Creed Live
April 23, 2009 - Assassin's Creed: Altair Chronicles has hit the App Store. Ringing up at $9.99, Gammeloft's action-stealth adventure features incredible visuals and gameplay tied directly to the 2007 Ubisoft smash hit. The game follows the exploits of Altair the assassin as he hunts "The Chalice," an artifact that has the power to bring the Crusades to a grinding halt.
Assassin's Creed iPhone Hands-On
April 21, 2009 - Whether or not you should even bother downloading Assassin's Creed for your iDevice depends on one critical factor: did you play the Nintendo DS game? If you have and weren't a fan, then it's likely to will whistle past Assassin's Creed on the way to other action fare like Hero of Sparta. However, if you have not, then Assassin's Creed should be on your radar. It is a polished stealth-action game with a lot style, linked to one of the most ambitious, grown-up game franchises in recent history.
Assassin's Creed: Exclusive First Look
April 13, 2009 - Did you ever doubt that the iPhone was as powerful -- actually, more powerful -- than the Nintendo DS? Gameloft's upcoming Assassin's Creed for the iPhone is proof positive that there are enough horsies under the hood to render a fully realized Crusade-savaged Holy Land. Set to be released in just a few weeks, Assassin's Creed for the iDevices is indeed largely based on Altair's Chronicles, the DS prequel to the very first Creed game.

Are you willing to wait 25 minutes? Or do what you have to do to save your life?
One woman in Oklahoma had to make that decision. 9-1-1 operators had her on the line for a long, long time. Listen to the chilling call.
Read it here, and listen.
As Jay G over at Marooned says so eloquently, "TWENTY FIVE MINUTES. Think about that. Think about that the next time someone tells you that you don't need a gun. Twenty five minutes. That could have been Donna Jackson's entire lifetime if she hadn't had a shotgun."

- Go to a gym regularly
- Run in the cold outside
- You do not have to eat hot meals everyday
- A good mix of food is always good
- Stay hydrated as always
- Urinating does not make you colder
- If you are shivering at home then you are not being productive
- Spring clean in the house to get rid of dust
- Moisture may still be a problem in your home especially on cold walls
- Wake up early to catch as much sun as possible
We are not living in prehistoric times when a cold spell may wipe out an entire clan. This is the 21st century, so a little cold shouldn't kill people in the developed world. How does one stay healthy and fit when it is so cold outside? Being chilly may not be so bad if you want to go for a run, but what if it is raining or snowing. How can you stay healthy if it is freezing outside?
Go to a gym regularly
So you cannot go outside because it is too cold, so why not join a gym and stay fit that way. It is going to cost you a lot more than the great outdoors does, but if you are complaining about the cold then try going to a gym. Try the free trial periods that many gyms offer to new customers.
Run in the cold outside
It is not so bad running in the cold. You do not feel it so much because you are running and creating heat. If it is bitterly cold then you may feel it on your nose and your fingers, but otherwise it is nice to be able to stay cool as you are running. This is realy important in How to stay hot and healthy when it's freezing outside in winter.
You do not have to eat hot meals everyday
This is just a fact of the matter, just because it is cold does not mean you have to have a hot meal every day. Where it says that you will remain healthy if you eat a hot meal on a cold day is a mystery because it is no big deal. If you are already ill or you are sickly then it is possible that you may need a hot meal on a cold day, but as a well person it shouldn't really matter.
A good mix of food is always good
If you want to stay healthy then you should have a balanced diet, but because many people seem to translate that into, "I should have a salad," you should know that a good mix of food is like having a balanced diet. It means not having the same thing all the time and mixing it up a little on a daily basis. Another important point in How to stay hot and healthy when it's freezing outside in winter guide.
Stay hydrated as always
Staying hydrated during cold weather is imperative if you are working out. Some people do not get enough fluid when they work out during the winter months because they figure they do not sweat as much but they do, which means you really need to stay hydrated.
Urinating does not make you colder
There is this nutty idea circulating that if you urinate during cold weather that you lose body heat from your urine. It is true that you lose a tiny bit of body heat, but your urine comes from a pretty deep place within your body, which means your body (mostly your liver) has already replenished the heat moments after what little you lost from urinating. In other words, holding your pee will not keep you warm.
If you are shivering at home then you are not being productive
People that are cold and that are shivering are not being productive. If you are running outside in the cold then it is unlikely that you are shaking and shivering, but if you are being silly and trying sit-ups then you are not being productive. If you are shivering you are not working out in a manner that is good for you. If you are in your home and shivering then no matter what you are doing you are doing it productively.
Spring clean in the house to get rid of dust
If you are going to stay in and exercise then try to get rid of the excess dust in your house. There is probably quite a lot more than you think, and it is not doing you any favors. If you are planning on working out indoors then remove a bit of dust first to be on the safe side.
Moisture may still be a problem in your home especially on cold walls
What happens is that the moisture in the air is attracted to cold places, and if your walls are cold then the water is attracted in that direction. You will then find condensation which leads to mold which leads to allergies and breathing problems. Try to avoid this whenever possible.
Wake up early to catch as much sun as possible
In the winter the sunlight hours do not last as long. It gets dark earlier, which means you should wake up a little earlier and try to be awake more during the sunlight hours. Not only is the sun good for you, but you will also be less prone to seasonal affective disorder (SAD). It is nicer to go running in the sun than it is in the dark and gloom that blankets the sky at 7pm in the winter.

Johannesburg - Police again fired rubber bullets at ANC Youth League supporters in Johannesburg on Tuesday when rioters attacked a police nyala.A group of about 25 people had climbed on top of a nyala, singing and dancing with sticks in their hands.Rubber bullets were fired to get them off the armoured vehicle.Some schoolchildren were shouting that they were not scared to fight for youth league leader Julius Malema, who was facing a disciplinary hearing alongside several other top youth leaders at Luthuli House on Tuesday.Streets at standstill A man, who said he was one of Malema's lawyers but did not want to give his name to journalists, arrived at Beyers Naude square and was seen cheering on the rioters.The crowd continued to grow in numbers and police on the scene said all the main streets in the city had come to a standstill.Police members were standing lined up on President street, opposite rioters who had lined up on the other side and who were throwing rocks and fruit, such as oranges, at the law enforcement officials.Some were seen breaking bricks into halves and throwing them.Photographers were trying to sneak pictures while hiding behind pillars, while some ANCYL supporters had clambered into trees for a better view.- Are you there? Send us your eyewitness accounts and photos
DISGUSTING!!!!! Such a disgrace! Look what you have created ANC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Completely predictable. The day of reckoning for those that lied in order to secure their votes and gravy train seats, is here. TRUE democracy is such a lekker thing!
This is disgusting. The ANCYL should all be arrested and thrown in jail for breaking the law and rioting. Disgraceful advertisment for South Africa. Disgraceful ANCYL !!!
At last the anc can see what they have created. Maybe they will get voted out of power.
JZ knew what was coming...can't face the music, so he decided to go and hide! Even the vice president took the road!
The ANCYL should be 'Youth'inased....Don't you agree, Magdalene Moonsamy ?
@Succubus - LOL
not suprising in the slightest.
LiciousDee. You still have reason to be proud of your skin colour. While there seem to be quite a few blacks out there who are hellbent on discrediting themselves, certainly not interested in anything that's equal and will just as quickly turn on their own members as they will blame the whites and apartheid for all of their failures. There are actually some of us white people who are perfectly capable of distinguishing between race and a kind of mentality. I do not believe that these people are creating anarchy because of their skin colour, but because of their way of thinking, because of unintelligent brains that are incapable of thinking first, because violence is EASY, while productivity is hard work. That does not mean to say that their behaviour is a reflection on YOU. You hold you head high, you be proud of your skin colour and you work hard to achieve your goals. Don't let these barbarians be an excuse to think anything else - just know that at the end of the day, you and so many other black people, some who I either know personally or have seen comment on these forums, have a reason to be proud. And SA needs people like you to let the other blacks know that you really can get what you want, you just have to work for it.
.."Africa-democracy" in action...!! ....chaos everywhere...!! ....he he he he he he he he he ..!!!
Sad, but true. Chaos reigns supreme in Africa. We are on a non-stop ride to becoming one of Africa's next basket cases. :(
It would be interesting to try and quantify the monetary impact of Julius Malema on the country. All considered, it must billions of Rands already. Sad how one man can cost a country so much...
About $15bn. (R100bn+). A lot of companies and people have even left the country because of his rants.
What???!! School children???!! Do they even know what nationalization means? Then again the fact that Mr Malema is suggesting is implies he doesn't know either!
They don't work but have new printed t-shirts and plackards obviously sponsored by the ANC douche league - They must be disbanded
Malema now has a following he cannot disappoint. Or he will be next...
unfortunately history repeats itself, that's exactly what will happen
Insurrection against the State in any civilised country will minimally secure a long jail sentence. Insurrection against the State in a 3rd world country will secure death by firing squad. In South Africa anyone can launch an attack on the State and call it political engagement.
Ha ha ha ha...welcome back racism.....27 years in prison for nothing Mr. Mandela.
It seems this Juju is bigger than the ANC now.
fatter yes...
Yep, and you voted him in...hahahahahahahahahahaha
not the pap.. the beer!
It is still not too late for the ANC to try and salvage some credibility, but they have to deal with Juliarse Mal-enema and his stooges decisively.
It is because of Apartheid that Julius is fat
they should have left the rubber bullets at home
Should have.
could have
I bet all the rioters were paid with free t-shirts, anc flags and chicken licken vouchers to kick up a stink.
What a waste of a good orange!
Pathetic. I bet half of them are just causing chaos for the fun of it and not in actual support of anything.
I think so too. Watching the TV some of them look like they are there just for the day to pass quickly because they have nothing to do. There are school kids, tsotsi looking who do not look like they know what a disciplinary hearing is.
The sad reality is that chaos is the only leverage ANCYL supporters have to get attention. Similar to the unions representing gov employees. You see, if you are employed in the private sector your leverage is your absence from work which affects profits and put pressure on your employer to act on your grief... BUT, if ANCYL demonstrated peacefully and obeyed all the rules, the ANC would suspend Julius, He will join the peacefull demonstrators and no one will suffers & therefore no further action would be required. If a municipal worker does not report for work and have a peacefull strike and not litter, the municipal managers can wait a year as they don't loose a thing. Only poor taxpayers loose.
It is the same as going to war. You know shooting and bombing is not a solution but you use it anyway to get some sort of leverage cause if you don't, an illigimate gov can complete a full term in office like its happening in Zim....
Its sad, but true...
Wize words Muzi. The ANC can still fix this mess. They need to urgently demonstrate the leadership qualities they always talk about, and this must manifest in decisive action. But they know this, the real question is - DO THEY HAVE THE BALLS TO DEAL WITH ANCYL, and handle the fall-out which is sure to follow if Juliarse Malenema is expelled.???
You make a good point Muzi. I'm not an ANC supporter and I'm certainly not an ANCYL supporter but I understand why Malema has become so popular. He speaks to the masses heart, the masses who are with out work, who see no work in the future. To the masses who have no hope but in him and the ANC who they voted for are doing nothing to change this desperate situation. In an ironic twist Malema is standing behind an old United States ideology , be it one seemingly long forgotten:
"Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
Unfortunately I think he is gathering these masses to him either through lies he believes, or lies he thinks the masses will believe. I sincerely hope it is the former. Nelson Mandella also thought that nationalization was a means to end poverty but when he was shown that in practice it leads to corruption and poverty. He changed his thoughts. It takes a truly great leader to change what he thought was right when confronted with a truth. I hope for the people who support Malema and all marginalized South Africans that he changes what he thinks. is right.
The ANC Youth League ppl r just being, as we call at school...sheeps. This means that they cannot think for themselves and have to have someone telling them what to believe and how to act . Julius is not exactly the best role model .. not by a long shot. People should never underestimate a large group of stupid people :| #true Story
@Tayla. Stay at school. You need to learn more a lot more about the English language.
Yep, thats what you get folks. I really hope there's chaos and anarchy in the streets. By my count, their own people will suffer far greater than anyone else. So ANCHOOLIGAN league, be true to your genepool and go ape....
How do this people support a person who has a job and they wont even have supper tonight yet all their energy is spent on a dude who lives in a high class suburb???
Or could it be he paid them ???
And so it begins. It is a tragedy to see a party founded on hope and principles being reduced to this.
Unfortunately President Zuma, what you sow, you reap.
The chickens have alas come home to roost, as we all knew they eventually would.

Make the ANCYL foot the bill for all damages caused, it should be chump change for Mr. Malema
"while some ANCYL supporters had clambered into trees for a better view."
'Nuff said.
This same youth wants JOBS .Nobody in the whole wide world is going to invest in SA anymore.
Bring in the military - get rid of this undisciplined behaviour.......protests are fine but not at this level !
Our military is just as pathetic as this bunch of savages.
The ANC created this and now it has come back to disgrace them and bite them. Lets see how they handle this one.
Emotional maturity clearly lacking...ergo ANCYL = low IQ's.
Burn Luthuli House down, Burn it, C'mon we dare you
SUBJECT – Julius Malema STAMP
The Reported Problem: Stamp Was Not Sticking To Envelopes.
Course of Action: The Premiers Office Allocated R1.5 Million To Test Stamp
1. The stamp is in perfect order.
2. There is nothing wrong with the adhesive
3. People are spitting on the wrong side.
Check this out
Come on SAPS, work these guys over..!
Hmmm... I think you people are being short sighted. There is a very good reason why Julius' radical policies are so popular with the masses. Its because they still have nothing. And if progress is not made in that area soon we will indeed face a crisin on the scale of Egypt. And its not enough for us whities to sit back and tell them to work hard. There is a massive part of this population with almost no education, no financial structures, and most importantly, little to no hope. And as much as we might like to deny it that has as much to do with the past as it does with the last 18 years of ANC rule.
The problem is not only a massive proportion of unemployed young people. There is an equal number of people that work there asses off in factories and mines around this country for 2 or 3k a month. Could anyone reading this article imagine supporting a family on 2 or 3k a month?
How then, can we be surprised at the support for someone like Malema?
Wise words spoken in 1931
You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend is about the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it"
Dr Adrian Rogers, 1931
Why is it that no one has been arrested yet?
malema has turned against the anc, i thing his gonna start his party soon, and that will be the bgn'n of his end.
It is clear Malema is not a leader- he is only fueling a desire for richness.....that's all.....and after that they will look at the world like all African Countries do for....ehhhh help !
Too little too late. Anc dont have the balls to do anything concrete about it! Expect more of the same..its time decent citizens took action instead of waiting for a government to step up-they aint gonn!
Lets get ready to RUUUUMMMBBBLLLLEE!!!!!
"Some schoolchildren were shouting that they were not scared to fight for youth league leader Julius Malema"
Shouldn't school children be in school? Why is JM not calling for children to be in school rather than nationalisation? Isn't that what the ANCYL is supposed to do? Or am missing something?
The ANC's failure to evolve into a democratic party has been fact passed as fiction for far too long. If the ANC has failed then so has the ANCYL, finding itself without a struggle, what's one to do? Well start a new struggle! Africa is doomed to repeat this pathetic story over and over again; we have yet to do something meaningful with all we have. Now let's see how long it will take for tribalism to show its head.
Clearly the VUVUZELA AND HEARSAY POLITICS it is the order of the day in ANC in general.
History teaches us about the:
Peasants Revolt of 1381, and the Peasants Revolt of 1525.
Now we have the Revolting Peasants of 2011.
So,Malema may be retried from the ANCYL,only to carry on with his illegal business activities,supported by the ones he now faces.Business as usual I think.Maybe there is a really BIG tender coming out soon that only Juilius can work on.
I'm going to start up a specialist business that cleans up after protests and demostrations. I'll expect that parties should be able to tell me how much damage they think thwey will be able to do, how many cars they will overturn, whether they need extra tyres to burn and how long they want the mess left behind as a testament to their might and superior intellect.
I should make a killing at least twice a year
who's with me???
do the protesters get paid extra by juju for jumping on the nyala?
or is it part of their package..
I winder if fatboy will be joining his mob outside Loot-freely house tomorrow to show support for dumb and dumber while he faces the wrist-slappers? I doubt it, not while there are rubber bullets flying around. He is after all such a yellow-bellied coward, hence his herd of bodyguards (aka thugs).
"...some ANCYL supporters had clambered into trees for a better view."
It is funny how these stupid people support the criminal robbing them behind their own backs!! Open your eyes!!!! Why are you supporting him - what has he ever done for you?? He has filled his own coffers stuff the rest!!
BWAHAHHAHAHA - "ANCYL supporters had clambered into trees for a better view"
Let this regime reap what they have created !!!! Viva Anarchy
Is all this barbaric action necessary? Really? Just because of a disciplinary hearing that is totally justified?? And they wonder why they go backwards... really!!
Why use rubber bullets on these thugs. The time has come to start using brass and lead. The anarchy is just beginning and unless the government show its willingness to use force as they did on the AWB in Mafikeng the rule of law and order will disappear.
a true sigh of lack of education and understanding from most of young pplae out there but what can we do now ANC has a major challlenge in bringning its pple to order is not a youth league matter but ANC matter and they should take full responsibilty,but by the look of things now they want to blame each other ol
The irony is that the "masses" thought they would get "everything" from the ANC. When that did not happen (because even under ANC rule, most have to work for their income), they turned to the ANCYL. (Nationalisation, land grabs etc sounds about right for the "masses" !)
When the ANCYL can't "produce", to whom/what will they turn?
Goog old-fashioned "work for your money" ? I don't think!

Armlet of Mordiggian
From Dota 2 Wiki
For the cosmetic item equipped by Chaos Knight, see Chaos Knight's Armlet of Mordiggian
| Armlet of Mordiggian
|Weapon of choice among brutes, the bearer sacrifices his life energy to gain immense strength and power.
2370 (550)
Bought From
The Armlet of Mordiggian is an item purchasable at the Main Shop, under Weapons.
Additional information[edit]
- Attack damage, attack speed, armor and health regeneration bonuses of multiple Armlets of Mordiggian do not stack.
- One Armlet of Mordiggian grants the following:
- While toggled off, grants a total of 4 health regeneration, 5 armor, 25 attack speed and 9 attack damage.
- While toggled on, grants a total of 500 health, 79.428571428571 health regeneration, 9 armor, 25 attack speed and 40 (65 to strength heroes) attack damage.
Unholy Strength
(HP Removal)
(HP Removal)
When active, Unholy Strength grants +31 damage, +25 strength and +4 armor, but drains 54 health per second.
You cannot die from the health drain when Unholy Strength is activated, nor from the strength loss when Unholy Strength is deactivated.
You cannot die from the health drain when Unholy Strength is activated, nor from the strength loss when Unholy Strength is deactivated.
Attack Damage Bonus: 31
Strength Bonus: 25
Armor Bonus: 4
Health Cost per Second: 54
Full Bonuses Delay: 0.6
Illusions do not benefit from the attack damage and armor and do not lose health per second. Illusions gain the strength over 0.6 seconds and copy the original's current health, resulting in them having 500 current health more than the hero if it was not at full health as the illusion was created.
- Does not interrupt the user's channeling spells upon toggling.
- Upon toggling on, it instantly provides the bonus attack damage and starts draining 6 health in 0.11 second intervals.
- Grants 4.17 strength in 0.1 second intervals, so it needs 0.6 seconds to grant the full strength bonus.
- The armor is granted after the 0.6 seconds, and not instantly.
- Grants a total of 500 health (464 when considering the health drain) and 75.428571428571 health regeneration.
- Does not drain health while invulnerable or hidden.
- Health drain cannot bring the user's health below 1. Does not toggle itself off when reaching 1 health.
- Considering the passive health regen and the regen gained from the strength, it effectively costs -25.428571428571 health per second.
- When toggling off, all bonuses are instantly lost. However, it cannot bring the user below 1 health.
- Unholy Strength does not persist through the user's death. If it was active upon death, the user respawns with it deactivated.
- Multiple instances of Unholy Strength do not stack.
- If multiple Armlets are toggled on, turning off any Armlet removes the Unholy Strength buff.
Recommended heroes[edit]Huskar
- Inner Vitality helps with negating the health drain from the Armlet, and Berserker's Blood greatly synergizes with the item, with the health drain helping keep Huskar's health at a low level, giving him high magic resistance and a great amount of attack speed.
- Lifestealer is a durable hero with a great way of keeping himself topped off on health thanks to Feast and Open Wounds, meaning that he is not bothered by the health loss of the item, as well as receiving stats that are needed, such as extra armor, damage and attack speed.
- Slardar is a durable strength hero, meaning that he will not have the hardest time negating the health cost of the Armlet, and it increases the damage dealt by Bash of the Deep through the added attack speed.
- Armlet provides a lot of damage at the cost of draining your own health, however Vampiric Aura easily negates the health drain effect making it a great item of him.
- As a durable hero with the ability to lifesteal thanks to Chaos Strike and with Armlet's bonus health when activated transferred to illussions summoned by Phantasm, Armlet of Mordiggian is one of the best item choices for the hero.
- Both Press the Attack and Moment of Courage provide Legion Commander with a great amount of health regeneration, making her incredibly sustainable and a great carrier of the item.
- Chemical Rage negates the health draining effect from the Armlet of Mordiggian, and the extra maximum health as well as the damage bonus are not bad attributes for him.
SituationalDragon Knight
- With the health regeneration from Dragon Blood, Dragon Knight will have no problem with activating Armlet for prolonged periods of time.
- By toggling Unholy Strength on before attacking with Tidebringer and toggling it off after, Kunkka can reliably increase his damage output while minimizing the health drain.
- Very situational, the attack speed from Armlet of Mordiggian helps with applying Greater Bash. It buffs him with added HP, Regeneration and Armor for a fight he would not otherwise survive for the low cost of the Armlet.
- The added damage allows Night Stalker to finish his targets faster than if he did not have an Armlet. It is also very easy to Armlet toggle to save oneself from a Tower projectile due to Night Stalker's incredible movement speed.
- Sven's ultimate increases Sven's attack damage based on how much strength he has. The extra strength from a toggled Armlet significantly increases Sven's attack damage during God's Strength.
- The Armlet is the most cost-effective item to build, especially on strength heroes that benefit most from its DPS increase. It is also useful on heroes with illusions or abilities that increase their base damage (like Sven's ultimate).
- When toggled on, Armlet increases maximum and current health by 500. This means when not at full health, it can effectively work as a temporary heal. However, it also has the opposite effect when toggling off, instantly reducing the hero's health by 500 (but not below 1). When toggled properly, this allows heroes at low health to survive and turn fights.
- This item is very good with lifesteal, and if the user's damage output is high enough it can negate the health loss, depending on the amount of lifesteal the user has.
- The Heart of Tarrasque's passive regen vastly overturns the health loss, allowing to have the Armlet constantly active, as long as the heart does not get disabled. The health loss of Armlet does not disable the regeneration of Heart of Tarrasque either, since it is considered HP Removal.
- Lone Druid's Spirit Bear is normally affected by the health drain, but does not benefit from the strength bonus.
- Armlet of Mordiggian is named after Mordiggian, a deity in the Cthulhu Mythos created by Clark Ashton Smith in his story The Charnel God (1934), whose powers consist of sucking away life force and whose cult consists entirely of ghouls.

As others have already said, your experience is telling you very different things from what my experience is telling me. The thing that makes Debian unique and not JALD (Just Another Linux Distribution) is, in my experience, our strict adherence to the DFSG, as guided by the Debian Social Contract. Debian is different from other distributions the way that the FSF is different from other organizations that make free software - Debian is a *philosophy*. It happens that along the way in pursuit that philosophy we've produced a distribution that some people find happens to meet their server needs admirably. (and, unfortunately, some people have found that Debian fails to meet their desktop needs - it meets mine, but some people don't have my good taste) However, this is a coincidence or, at best a byproduct of producing a distribution in line with Debian's philosophy. I can find no evidence that there was ever a deliberate attempt to focus on one type of user. (Beyond, "the type of user who would support a 100% free software distribution") Yes, I'm saying that licensing flame wars are an essential part of Debian. No, I don't like the flame wars more than the next person, but I understand that they're necessary.

it's an internet thing!
it's an internet thing!
09:15 15 April 2013
A research from Age UK reveals that millions of workers have lose track of their pensions as they change jobs. The survey, which involved 2,300 people, found that a quarter of them are not aware of the state of at least one scheme. This is alarming as about a quarter of people who are under the age of 35 have already worked for about five employers.
Workers who lose track of their pension blamed lost paperwork.
Lucy Harmer, head of services at Age UK, warns the importance of keeping all the paper works related to pension. She said:
"It is really important we all set aside time to keep on top of our personal admin, such as organising paperwork and keeping details of any financial products safe and secure."
"This is especially crucial for pensions, as it may be some years down the line until they need to be accessed."
The news has prompted new calls for the government to device plans of actions to help workers take any small pension pot with them and merge it with their next workplace pension.
Meanwhile, the Department of Work and pension provides service to help workers. They offer pension tracing service to easily locate lost pension for individuals.

Unanswered: Have data in varchar FOR BIT DATA
I have got data in DB2 V 9.1 under ZOS. When I select data from Table, I can not see right Character in my application program. By this program I could see easily in DB2 V 7.1 . Instead of right character I see Byte[] Array or Hex string (by two mode BITDATA of DB2 Connect).
Please Help Me.

the API detects for bit data, and show its hex value. By book, this is correct behavior.
I think there was a bug for V7, which show the string directly.

nidm is correct. If you have binary data (VARCHAR FOR BIT DATA or BLOB), then it is a really bad idea if a client would try to interpret the data as string - unless it really knows that the data has only code points in the current code page, which the DB2 client cannot assume.Knut Stolze

Original paper
Phylogenetic distribution and evolution of secondary metabolites in the lichenized fungal genus Lepraria (Lecanorales: Stereocaulaceae)
Nelsen, Matthew P.; Gargas, Andrea
Nova Hedwigia Band 86 Heft 1-2 (2008), p. 115 - 131
published: Feb 1, 2008
ArtNo. ESP050008601005, Price: 29.00 €
Molecular sequence data are used to explore the phylogenetic distribution of secondary metabolites and metabolite classes among species of Lepraria. All substance classes examined were phylogenetically widespread, except for β-orcinol meta-depsides and anthraquinones, which appeared rare and restricted to a single major clade. Benzyl esters were also found to be rare. Taxa producing each substance class examined were not monophyletic. The ability to regularly produce orcinol para depsides, β-orcinol meta-depsides, β-orcinol depsidones, dibenzofurans, benzyl esters, terpenoids and anthraquinones appears to have been gained more than lost, while the ability to produce β-orcinol para-depsides and higher aliphatic acids has been lost more than gained. Our results suggest that chemical similarities may not necessarily indicate close phylogenetic relationships. Finally, ancestral state reconstruction at the base of genus Lepraria suggests that its ancestor produced β-orcinol para-depsides (atranorin) but did not produce orcinol para-depsides, β-orcinol meta-depsides, benzyl esters or anthraquinones.

5 Common Workplace Hazards
These are some common hazards found in all workplaces in New Zealand:
1. Manual Handling
Manual handling injuries are not limited to those sustained by lifting or carrying heavy loads. A person can be injured in several ways when handling objects including pulling, pushing, holding or restraining. Good posture and lifting techniques can help reduce the risks, but making changes to workplace design is also an effective way to prevent manual handling injury. Recommendations for managing these risks include:
• Provide appropriate mechanical aids and equipment to minimise the risk of manual handling injuries.
• Ensure mechanical aids and equipment are used and maintained in accordance with manufacturer specifications.
• Store objects at waist height to reduce the need to lift objects.
• Reduce the size and weight of objects to be lifted (ensure this does not increase the frequency of lifting).
• Ensure floors and ground surfaces in work areas, car parks and entrances are level, clean, well lit, clear of obstacles and in good condition.
2. Chemical Hazards
Chemical hazards are present when you are exposed to any chemical preparation (solid, liquid or gas) in the workplace. Specific types of chemicals have been associated with harmful health effects. Common chemical hazards include:
• Skin irritation, burns, eye injury or blindness caused by corrosive chemical products.
• Toxic vapours and fumes, caused by mixing incompatible chemicals.
• Serious burns from flammable solvents that catch on fire.
• Injury from exploding containers, such as spray cans.
• Poisoning from accidental swallowing.
A person conducting a business or undertaking has a primary duty to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, that the health and safety of workers and other people are not put at risk from the business' use, handling or storage of hazardous chemicals. Recommendations for managing these risks include:
• Treat all chemicals as potentially dangerous to health, unless safety data sheet (SDS) or label states otherwise.
• Obtain safety data sheets (SDS) for all dangerous goods and hazardous chemicals at your workplace, and ensure workers have access to them.
• Eliminate the substance from use (e.g. use steam cleaning rather than washing with a solvent).
• If you cannot eliminate, use a less harmful product or process or a less hazardous form of the substance (e.g. pellets instead of powders, water-based paint instead of oil-based paint).
• Design work and the workplace to isolate the process or substance from workers to prevent contact (e.g. enclose process).
• Install ventilation and extraction to reduce exposure (e.g. use a spray booth).
• Train workers on safe work practices that reduce exposure (e.g. re-seal containers, clean up spills and restrict unnecessary access).
• Provide personal protective clothing and equipment (e.g. respirators) for workers.
• Ensure all controls are maintained. You may have to conduct air monitoring to determine worker exposure levels and undertake health surveillance. If you are not sure if there is a problem, get some assistance.
3. Slips, Trips and Falls
Slip, trips and falls are a major cause of workplace injury in New Zealand but these events are often avoidable. Slips occur when a person's foot loses traction with the ground surface, trips occur when a person unexpectedly catches their foot on an object or surface. Falls may result from a slip or trip but many occur during falls from low heights or into a hole, ditch or body of water. There are many situations that may cause slips, trips and falls to occur in the workplace including:
• Wet or greasy floors.
• Uneven walking surfaces.
• Loose flooring, carpeting or mats.
• Missing or uneven floor tiles and bricks.
• Damaged irregular steps; no handrails.
• Clutter.
• Electrical cords or cables.
• Open desk or file cabinet drawers.
• Ramps and gang planks without skid-resistant surfaces.
• Weather hazards e.g. rain, wind, frost.
If risks are not managed in the workplace it can lead to injuries for a worker ranging from bruising, broken bones to an extremely serious injury. Recommendations for managing risks include:
• Provide appropriate equipment (e.g. mobile steps with handrails and work platforms) and ensure it is used properly and maintained in accordance with manufacturer specifications.
• Ensure floors or ground surfaces are level.
• Ensure floors or ground surfaces in work areas, car parks and entrances are clean, well lit, and clear of obstacles and in good condition.
• Develop policies on how to safely carry objects (e.g. no unstable or unbalanced loads), particularly on stairs.
• Ensure ladders are designed for the task.
4. Fatigue
If fatigue is not addressed and managed it may lead to immediate safety problems. For example, a worker could be so tired from long hours of work that they do not see a warning light flashing. Work-related factors leading to fatigue include workload, long work hours, long hours of physical or mental activity, insufficient break time, inadequate rest, poor rostering, shift work, excessive stress or a combination of these factors. Fatigue can be a major source of stress for workers and fatigue can significantly affect a worker's ability to function properly. Signs and symptoms of fatigue include:
• Tiredness.
• Sleepiness.
• Irritability.
• Depression.
• Loss of appetite and digestive problems.
• Increased susceptibility to illness.
Fatigue can create safety hazards in the workplace. It can impact on a worker's performance and productivity, increase the potential for injury, compromise the safety of other workers and people who the business might service such as patients at a hospital. Recommendations for managing risks related to workplace fatigue include:
• Provide sufficient breaks and ensure there is drinking water available.
• Ensure workers are not exposed to repetitive work for long periods (e.g. by using job rotation, task variation) or work that requires a significant amount of high force without rest breaks.
• Work with employees to manage workload levels, safe staffing and rostering levels.
• Develop strategies for managing the impact of fatigue (e.g. develop a fatigue management system and train managers/team leaders how to effectively implement it).
• Train workers how to recognise fatigue signs and symptoms.
5. Work-related Stress, Bullying and Work-Related Violence
Unfortunately, workplace bullying is a reality in New Zealand. It affects people physically and mentally, resulting in increased stress levels, decreased emotional wellbeing, reduced coping strategies and lower work performance. Workplace stress can interfere with a worker's productivity and performance—and impact on physical and emotional health. Often workers can experience stress when they are overwhelmed by workplace demands and responsibilities are greater than what is manageable or tasks are beyond their capability. If workplace stress is not addressed and managed quickly it may lead to immediate safety problems. Similar to fatigue, signs and symptoms of work-related stress include:
• Feeling anxious, irritable, or depressed.
• Apathy, loss of interest in work.
• Problems sleeping.
• Fatigue.
• Trouble concentrating.
• Muscle tension or headaches or stomach problems.
• Social withdrawal.
• Using alcohol or drugs to cope.
Workplace violence experienced by a worker can also lead to stress. Workplace violence is any act or threat of physical violence, harassment, intimidation, or other threatening disruptive behavior that occurs at the work site. It ranges from threats and verbal abuse to physical assaults and even homicide. It can affect and involve anyone involved with the workplace e.g. employees, clients, customers, contractors and visitors.
Factors that may increase the risk of violence for some workers at certain worksites include:
- exchanging money with the public
- working alone or in isolated areas
- providing services and care, and working where alcohol is served may also impact the likelihood of violence
- time of day and location of work, such as working late at night or in areas with high crime rates, are also risk factors that should be considered when addressing issues of workplace violence

The Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) has concluded plans to co-operate with Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) before the July 14 governorship election in Edo.
CPC Chairman, Tony Momoh, who made this known on Sunday, said that such co-operation was to ensure the re-election of Governor Adam Oshiomhole.
Momoh said the party took the decision because it was convinced that Oshiomhole had done better than his predecessor in terms of providing basic needs such as health care and good roads.
Other areas, he added, were qualitative education, potable water supply and food security among others, for the wellbeing of the people.
"Oshiomhole is doing a lot of work in every part of Edo by uplifting the state's integrity and values for the people to enjoy democracy," he said. "So, we are going to cooperate with ACN in Edo State."
He added that ACN and CPC were moving toward an alliance and would eventually merge to actualise good governance in the country.
The national chairman called on other political parties desirous to be part of the merger to feel free to do so, assuring them that the move would ensure the growth of democracy in the country.
"What are working hard to be stronger in securing the votes, to ensure that votes are counted and the votes count," he said. "We shall reap the benefits when the elections come," he said.
Momoh stated that Nigeria was experiencing challenges in the area of security and economy because the nation had failed to do what it was supposed to do as regards democracy.
"We have the opportunity to grow as far as India, Brazil and even Korea today, but we are still moving on the floor because we did not develop things that can make Nigeria grow."

Bus, train and metro drivers in the Dutch port of Rotterdam have announced that they will be on strike during the morning rush hour on Wednesday.
The strike has been called by the FNV and VOR trades unions in protest against the budget cuts imposed by the right-wing government. The unions are also opposed by the cabinet's decision to put bus and rail services in the major cities out to open tender. Local companies which have sometimes been providing city transport for over a century are at risk of losing out to foreign bidders, who often cut services and worsen labour conditions, according to the trades unions.
The strike is expected to cause widespread traffic problems in the Rotterdam area on Wednesday morning. Services will resume by mid-morning.

Industry News
Don't let the Horse meat scandal effect your sales Pubs, Caterers and Restaurant owners step up
With the horse meat scandal, one way Pubs, Caterers and Restaurants can show their integrity is through presenting themselves professionally. From the back of house in the kitchen to the waiters and waitresses serving the customers.
It seems that the UK Food Industry is under a sustained attack with many consumers being made to feel as if they have been duped. While the large food conglomerates and the Supermarkets can all blame each other and keep themselves relatively detached from the actual consumer, what can the caterer or restaurateur do to help ease their customers fears?
How many times do you go to a restaurant or a bar and are encountered by staff in the same tired old uniforms, bulging at the seams, faded out colours greyish blacks and brown whites? If it is so bad at the front of house? How bad must it be at the back? What impression does this give the customer? Is this all that this business cares about? Saving costs….and dare I think it? Cutting corners? Do they buy and sell horse meat here unknowingly to their customers in their constant strive for cost savings?
One major way in which this can be combatted is by making anyone who comes in contact with the customer look presentable and to be addressed in the correct attire, of course they must have impeccable customer service skills, even the most industrial of catering establishments cannot ignore this. Customers demand and rightly expect good quality food and trust needs to be earned.
In the UK, Workwear and Sports are chefs clothing suppliers that provide high quality chefswear that feature great quality, comfort and affordability. They are reliable and reputable chefswear providers offering a wide selection of chefs clothing from the most luxurious ranges that can be used in upmarket restaurants and value ranges for daily use in fast food outlets. Offering chefswear that includes chef hats, chefs jackets, gloves, aprons and more and our customers have an opportunity to have their order customised with embroidery of their company's logo or name.
Kitchen staff like chefs and sous chefs need to wear a specific type of chefswear to maintain hygiene and safety within the vicinity of the food preparation and cooking environment. Catering business owners and managers have it upon themselves to ensure their staff wear the proper kitchen clothes. These basic prerequisites help in the maintaining of professional standards. Whilst kitchen and hospitality staff need to be trained in food hygiene, safe food storage and hygiene in the dispensing and serving of food. With the overall kitchen to be kept as safe and clean as possible. This allows customers to feel that they are in safe hands.
If you are looking for qflbg a catering and chefs clothing suppliers in UK there are things that you need to consider like the the fabric and its quality. When you are purchasing chefswear you need to make sure that it is made up of breathable fabric since the kitchen environment is usually hot it is a must to keep your staff fresh and productive by using chefswear that is comfortable. Aside from the fabric you also need to consider that your chefswear if flexible and will allow your staff to move freely in the kitchen. Price is also important so you need to find suppliers like Workwear and Sports that do not only offer high quality chefswear but also offer good deals especially if you have a catering business and you need to purchase large quantities of chefswear for the kitchen and barwear and hospitality clothing for the front of house. It is a plus factor if you can get to save money so choosing a chefswear provider that offers good value by providing both high quality products at a competitive price will allow you to save your money when investing in your staff.
While there are many catering and chefs clothing providers in the UK for most caterers it is quite difficult and arduous task to choose the most suited supplier because of the choice and misleading false advertising. At Workwear and Sports we are completely transparent with what we offer with our massive department of Catering, Chefs and Barwear in the UK.
