Anecdote: joined the children on Christmas Eve
A controlling idea is a word or a group of words that state the central idea of a paragraph, specifying what the paragraph is about. A controlling idea is often contained in the topic sentence of a paragraph.
Example 1:
Every year 100 million holiday-makers are drawn to the Mediterranean. With one-third of the world's tourist trade, it is the most popular of all the holiday destinations; it is also the most polluted.
Example 2:
Some English words have a common root but are used in very different senses. Consider human and humane, for example. Their origin is the same and their meanings are related, but their usage is distinct. A human action is not the same thing as a humane action. We cannot speak of a Declaration of Humane Rights. …
Example 3:
It was this very Mozartean simplicity that most characterized Einstein's methods. His 1905 theory of relativity, for example, was built on just two simple assumptions. One is the so-called principle of relativity, which means, roughly speaking, that we cannot tell whether we are at rest or moving smoothly. The other assumption is that the speed of light is the same no matter what the speed of the object that produces it. …
Please read the passage "Controlling Idea" on page 42 (Student's book), and then do the exercise on page31 (Workbook)
Perennial (l.10): lasting through the whole year; lasting forever or for a long time 持久的, 长久的
E.g.: the perennial snow fields 终年积雪的原野
the perennial blue jeans 四季都穿的牛仔裤
a perennial invalid 长期病人
the perennial problems of isolation in old age 始终未能解决的老年人孤独问题
Journalists travel off the beaten track to give news a different perspective.
off the beaten track / path (l.11): not well-known; not often visited 去的人不多的,鲜有人涉足的;不出名的; 离开常规;不落俗套
beaten: (of a path, track, etc.) that is given shape by the feet of those who pass along it (路) 被踏平的, 走出来的, 人们常走的. E.g.:
We followed a well-beaten path through the forest. 我们沿着人们常走的小路穿过了森林。
go off the beaten track 打破常规
turnpike (l.12):(Am. E) also pike, turnpike road; a special road for the use of fast-traveling vehicles, especially such a road which one has to pay to use高速公路
-- towns like the movie sets in the thirties
-- company houses in rows
-- rutted roads
-- black and dirty
-- unemployed men in the bar
-- women working in a runaway sweatshop
When the traveler comes to the Appalachians, he will see the beauty of nature, and the run-down houses remind him of the "primitive man." He does not know that the people living in the area are actually undereducated, underprivileged; in other words, they are very poor. So outward beauty of nature and false beliefs in the "primitive man" are misleading -- they simply cover up the truth -- the existence of poverty.
Because the middle class is the largest class in the U.S. It can represent most Americans. If the poor is invisible by the middle class, we can say the poor is invisible by most Americans.
The middle class:
Broadly speaking, the middle class is the social group between the upper or the wealthy and working classes, including professional and business workers and their families. The middle class is sometimes divided into lower middle and upper middle classes --- a division based on occupational and educational differences.
Since World War II, the middle class has been the largest class in the United States, where the middle class participate more in political and voluntary organizations than do the subordinate classes, that is, the lowest paid wage earners and the jobless poor. The middle class in the U.S. also has a higher rate of religious participation than any other class.
Slum (l.33) -- a thickly populated, squalid part of a city inhabited by the poorest people. In many cities in the U.S., particularly in the East and the Middle West, slums developed where unemployment led to great suffering and over-crowdedness; moreover, pauperism and crime are widespread.
Ghetto (l.35) -- In former times, in most European countries, a section of a city inhabited by Jews. In the U.S. today, a thickly populated slum area in a city inhabited predominantly by a minority group.
In the U.S., ghetto is a term used to describe segregated residential areas in the northern U.S. They are typically overcrowded, and have poor housing and high unemployment. They are largely a result of segregation.
city transformation:
the poor still live in the miserable housing in the central area of a city while the affluent middle class have moved from cities to the suburbs, so there is little chance for them to meet each other.
The cause of this new segregation of the poor from the affluent is: city transformation:
the poor still live in the miserable housing in the central area of a city while the affluent middle class have moved out to the suburbs, so there is little chance for them to meet each other.
"Well-meaning ignorance" refers to the lack of awareness of the existence of poverty on the part of the middle class because of their optimistic ideas about urban renewal(城市出新).
The middle class hear much about urban renewal, and when they see a slum torn down and modern buildings stand in its place, they feel gratified, thinking that the poor are being taken care of, not knowing the truth that more and more poor people are being squeezed into existing slums.
--- the groups of people at 65 years of age or better and those under 18
--- the aged poor: sick, can't move, live in loneliness, stay in the neighborhood
--- the young poor: stay close to their neighborhood, not disturb the middle class and remain unnoticed except when they commit gang killing
no face: no unions, organizations, political parties, or lobbies; atomized
no voice: unable to speak for themselves, no legislative program
They are unable to speak for themselves because they have no face, no voice.
No politicians care about them because their slums are no longer the centers of powerful political organizations, only those unions without any great political power articulate their needs.
The Plug-in Drug:
TV and the American Family (Part I)
Marie Winn
Steve Jobs
(1936, Prague, Czechoslovakia )Marie Winn, a journalist, author and birdwatcher, is known for her books and articles on the birds of Central Park, for her Wall Street Journal ornithology (scientific study of birds) column, for her critical coverage of television. She is the author of The playground Book, The Sick Book, The Baby Reader, and other books for parents and children.About the author
In 2002, she added new material to update the study as The Plug-In Drug: Television, Computers, and Family Life, published on the 25th anniversary of the original book.
A. Impact on children:
A drastic change in their life and personality; the process
that transforms children into people being hindered
B. Impact on family and family life:
Ever-loosening family ties
deep-rooted prejudice根深蒂固的偏见;
deep-seated differences of opinion根深蒂固的观点差异;
implanted convictions坚定的信念;
deeply ingrained habits of a lifetime终生的习惯;
a deeply planted need根深蒂固的贫困
He felt much afflicted at (by) the sad news.
A nightmare afflicts me from time to time. 恶梦不时折磨着我。
Unemployment afflicts 12 million workers in that country.
Question: Why does Winn accuse the early observers of myopia?
The early observers saw only the favorable effects of TV and none of them was sufficiently far-sighted to predict the negative effects of TV in the future. That is why they are accused of myopia, i.e.,
TV helps to keep all the family members in the house in a physical sense. But they are not really doing things together. Instead, they watch their own favorite programs with little interaction between them. In this sense the TV undermines the relationships between family members.
Q1: What is the behavior that TV screen produces?
Q2: What is the behavior that TV screen prevents?
Q: Which is more dangerous, the behavior TV produces or the behavior it prevents? Why?
Watching TV is itself dangerous, but what is more dangerous is that it prevents the talks, the games, the family festivities and arguments. Children can learn a lot from all these activities, and they form their character to some extent in the process of these activities.
If family members always mind their individual business without any time to do something together so as to have some shared experiences, the family is, then, anything other than / nothing but a care-taking institution instead of a warm place full of love, laughter and fun.
Para. 2-5
In paras.2-4, three quotations from early writers and commentators to show the general view in favor of TV as a new invention without the slightest foresight as to its possible negative effect.
Arising concern over too much TV viewing
Para 7-8
In para7, a quotation of the authors of an early and influential study of TV's effects on children illustrates a popularly accepted view which helped to soothe the worrying parents who began to feel about the negative effects TV might have on children.
Criticism of TV's negative effects on family lifeand children's growth
Para 9-14
Quotation in para 10 to state the view that TV had negatively affected family life and the transformation of children into adults.
More quotations in para 12, 13 to criticize how TV dominates family life and diminishes interaction between parents and children.
Appeal for a better family life
Para 15-end
Quoting from Times (Para. 17) to stress the importanceof parent-children communication
Group discussion and presentation in class:
TV displaces active types of recreation
It decreases time spent playing with peers. A child has less time for self-directed daydreaming and thinking. It takes away time for participating in sports, music, art, or other activities that require practice to achieve competence.
TV interferes with conversation and discussion time.
It reduces social interactions with family and friends.
TV discourages reading.
Reading requires much more thinking than television. Reading improves a youngster's vocabulary. A decrease in reading scores may be related to too much time in front of the TV.
Television's Positive Effects on Society Nichole VanSickle
According to Marie Winn and her essay "The Plug-In Drug," television has various negative effects on our society today. In her essay Winn explores the ways in which television has harmfully caused disruptions with the quality of family life, rituals, and values. She recognizes there is a problem with oursociety and the way in which it is consistently influenced by television. I am able to agree with Winn on this point, but I do not feel that the totality of the influence is negative. Television today has a lot of positive effects and influences on our society and our American culture. Television gives us helpful information, various forms of education, and entertainment which are all a part of the positive effects that television has on our society.
The television has other purposes besides convenience. It is a great wayof educating the people throughout society with the important issues that affectour everyday lives. Be it social, political, economical, or medical, there isalways something new to be told, and the television is the quickest way to getit out to the people. Not only is the television fast, but it is also very accurate and in depth as well. The television takes the time to do the research that most
Along with informational and educational purposes, television serves asan entertainer as well. When television was first developed, entertainment wasnot one of its main purposes. As time went on people began to sit and watch thetelevision for that reason. Soon after came the development of sitcoms, andspecial programs which served as entertainment purposes. Throughout the years,entertainment on TV has become much more popular among Americans. Thetelevision has become an important part of our entertainment today. Not only isit more convenient than going to movies, plays, concerts, or sporting events butit is also a lot cheaper. With modern day television people do not have to leave their houses, and get dressed up to drive to see what they could be watching on their own TV sets at home. This is why the television companies
Throughout the years, the American people have come to rely on thetelevision and all it has to offer. The television with its multi-purposes haspositively affected our society through its means of information, education, andentertainment. We as Americans have become a part of a society which is greatly influenced by the television. Although, this influence has been proven toaffect the quality of family life, as Winn mentions in "The Plug-In Drug." Thepositive effects of television on our society as a whole, and the knowledge itprovides is far greater than this quality of life that she mentions. I mustadmit that there are both positive and negative aspects that come out of ourtelevisions today, but I feel that the positive effects definitely out weigh thenegatives when it comes to the importance of information, education, andentertainment for our society.

Life gets harder sometimes. I have been scrambling around, trying to find a new job and getting prepared to say good-bye to all the people at work I am so fond of. It's been difficult even to think about that without getting teary-eyed. Then something happened that knocked that whole stressful scene out of the park.
My Mom has been having a terrible problem with severe dizziness. It is worse when she's sitting up, so she spent weeks and weeks lying flat on her back, and as a result she lost a lot of muscle. That's a dangerous thing when you're nearly eighty years old. Although she has Brenda to help her, Brenda told me Mom needs more help than she is able to give. In the week before I lost my job I had been trying to hire someone else to fill in for Brenda (believe me, that made losing my income even more upsetting to me). Eventually, Mom ended up in the hospital when she was unable to get out of bed. The hospital resisted admitting her at first, because she is apparently completely healthy. All the tests they have done to figure out what's happening in her head have been inconclusive.
On Friday the 13th I called her to say hello. Calls to her have been short because her arthritis makes it uncomfortable for her to hold the phone to her ear, but she talked to me for about forty minutes. She gave me her instructions for her funeral and messages to give other people. She said, "I'm dying. I can feel all my systems shutting down," although no doctors agree with her on that point. In fact, a decision had been made to send her to a special facility for intensive physical therapy, but she indicated she wasn't going to bother with that, as she was going to be dead in a few days. If she didn't agree to participate and make progress, she would be booted out of the facility. As she doesn't have the financial ability to hire full-time help (and neither do her children at this point) that would mean she'd end up in a nursing home.
Robert and I immediately drove to Michigan. We met with my brothers and Mom's priest, Jannell Glennie, who gave us good advice on how to deal with someone in my Mom's state of mind, to get her focused on getting better. I am glad to say we were able to use that advice and she's doing much better now, and working very hard at physical therapy. She can walk for quite a ways with her walker, but balance is her main problem, and she needs help standing up and sitting down.
The main reason she is feeling better is that she has some hope her dizziness may be correctable with surgery. We are waiting for an August 14 meeting with neurologists, and have asked for a consult with an opthomologist. I don't know what will happen if it turns out there isn't anything we can do for her. She always has to be hopeful, and she has so many plans for the future. She loves living in her house and having kitties around. So please keep her in your prayers, that she'll be able to do that soon.
I had been wondering how the hell to find the silver lining in the black cloud of losing my job, but I guess it is that I have the ability now to stay with my Mom and do what I can to help her through this tough time. (Robert had to go back to work--Mom's friend Ed Noonan has lent me a car so I can go back and forth from the facility to see her.) I also get to help my brothers, who are going to be carrying the load of her care after I go back to New York (around August 15). I have been collecting all the stuff she needs for her medical visits and keeping her mind occupied.
I am also working almost around the clock sorting through boxes and boxes (and they go up to the ceiling in some of the upstairs rooms) of papers that my Mom, the archivist, has collected. She has saved photographs and news articles about all the things our family has been involved in for over fifty years, and THAT'S A LOT --Boy Scouts, bagpipe band, city politics, St. Katherine's Church, hundreds of museums projects and business ventures, and artistic pursuits. She also seems to have saved every graduation announcement and wedding invitation (for every wedding) of every kid we ever knew. Many of those things are more important to other people than they are to any of us, so I am sorting out zillions of piles of things that we will eventually spend billions of dollars in postage, sending out to millions of friends and relations.
This has me feeling overwhelmed at times. I'm afraid that last night a small bottle of vodka and some orange juice (and brother Chris, too) helped.
The most overwhelming part is knowing that the work my Mom has done is valuable, but I don't know to whom. She has been working on a history of her family and the little town in Kansas where she grew up. She has rolls and rolls of microfilm copies of old newspapers, and boxes of ancient photographs, and she has typed up perhaps 100 years' worth of old letters and diaries. I feel a great weight of responsibility to make sure it goes where it is supposed to go, but I don't know what to do. I don't feel that Andy's kids are very interested in this history, and Tim's Lindsey is too young to be interested. All I can say is, "Argh!"
Anyway, I have to get ready to go to see Mom. I am trying to spend about six hours every day with her at the facility. I have been reading old family letters to her, then I'll box them up and send them to the Kansas contingent of cousins, as many of the stories in them are about their childhoods. I have also been reading Mom letters from her sister Joanne, who died only three weeks after Mom got married in 1949. Joanne was only one year younger than Mom, and was the sister she was closest to. Mom said she was so upset about Joanne's death (she had an unexpected allergic reaction to a medication), and felt so terrible that her sister didn't get to have her own family and live a longer life, that she has hardly ever spoken about her. To her surprise, Mom has found she enjoys hearing the letters. They're all about boyfriends and dances and "wolf hunts," and she realizes now that Joanne packed so much into her twenty years of life that it makes it easier to think about her.
When Mom was at her very low point, she asked me to take her cats. This is the only time that Robert, always supportive of me, raised an eyebrow. He loves me and knows I love my cats, but poor Alice's latest blunder (she has decided the place to take a dump is in our new library, and she soaked a shelf of his books, ruining them) (I say, hey, that's one way to get rid of some books around here...) has been rough on him. Creaky old Alice will actually tinkle in the litter box downstairs, then crawl up a flight of stairs to do this other business on the carpet. What the hell is going on in her senile kitty head? Thank God I have a carpet cleaning machine that works like a dream.
Mom has five cats, and with the exception of her kitten, they are quite timid. I'm not saying her cats are DUMB or anything (cough-cough) but even if I get one calmed down enough to pet it, it fails to recognize me the next day as "that nice lady who petted me," and I'm once again, "The intruder! Oh, God!" Not only do her cats not recognize me from day to day, they don't recognize me from room to room. "Intruder in the dining room! Oh God!" "Nice lady with cat food in the kitchen. She's probably OK." "Oh no! Intruder in the bathroom! Hide! Hide!" In spite of this, I am getting quite fond of one she calls Pookie, who looks like a big white watermelon with golden eyes. Let's hope, for theirs and Mom's and Robert's sake, it will be absolutely unnecessary for her kitties to move anywhere.
Anyway, I have to run. My Mom likes to get cards and letters, if you want to send them, to Patty Hogg, at 401 High Street, Williamston, MI, 48895. Keep those good thoughts comin'!

Javier is behind the bar tonight, not that it would really have mattered. The stalwart drink slingers of California Café are all experts in the art of the martini. "On the rocks or straight up?" There's only one right answer to this question. Upon hearing "Straight up," he nods and flashes a smirk, suggesting that he would have scoffed at any other answer. Good answer. He then properly prepares the vodka -- ask secret agent 007 how this feat is accomplished -- and pours it into the glass. He adds the requested twist of lemon in the form of a slice of rind an inch long, cut to regulatory perfection. He wipes the rind once around the rim of the martini glass, then adds it to the drink. Finally he takes a small atomizer from a shelf near the cash register and adds a fine mist of vermouth -- one spritz only -- as the crowning touch. Javier sets the finished product down on a cocktail napkin and inquires, "Anything else?" How could there be? James Bond would weep.

Idealista recently printed this interesting chart. Note that Citi Bank are substantially more pessimistic in their outlook for 2013 than Deutsche Bank.
I'm inclined to think Deutsche's prediction (and a 1% decline is still bad news) will be the most realistic as they are a European based institution. However SocGen really should have good insights into the economy too (they have a major presence in Madrid's financial sector) so it'll be interesting to see which of those two banks have the better prediction.

Mind you, the UK and US public pension plans are all bust too, so it's not just Spain.

No opinion from me on this – I'll let the "experts" here fight about it.
From the New York Times:
A Mending Spain Finds Willing Bond Buyers
MADRID — January is turning out to be a bumper month for Spain and some of the euro zone economies most in need of debt financing, with governments and companies flooding the market with bonds that have sold at significantly lower interest rates than just a few months ago.

Yes, it's a win, win situation with the ECB virtually underwriting them…for now

I thought the Spanish government had been using my pension fund to buy them:
Anyways, let's hope they're taking this opportunity to sell them.

A New Orleans jury on Wednesday awarded $14m to five Indian men who were lured to the United States and forced to work under inhumane conditions after Hurricane Katrina by a ship repair firm and its codefendants.
After a four-week trial, the US District Court jury ruled that Alabama-based Signal International was guilty of labour trafficking, fraud, racketeering and discrimination and ordered it to pay $12m. Its co-defendants, a New Orleans lawyer and an India-based recruiter, were also found guilty and ordered to pay an additional $915,000 each.
The trial was the first in more than a dozen related lawsuits with over 200 plaintiffs that together comprise one of the largest labour trafficking cases in US history.
Signal recruited about 500 Indian men as guest workers to repair oil rigs and facilities damaged by Hurricane Katrina in 2005, according to plaintiffs.

This morning we recorded another SquawkBox with Randall Howard, Howard Thaw, Jim Courtney and myself. We talked about
- Sun's acquisition of MySQL this week for a cool $1 billion. What's Sun's game here? Speculation runs the gamut from building enterprise applications to compete with Oracle all the way to cloud computing a la Amazon EC3. Why pay so much for this asset? What will they do with it?
- DSL Reports leaked Time Warner Communications internal memo that talks about testing a usage metered version of the Internet in Beaumont Texas. The memo says that the system is aimed at gaining additional revenue from the "5% of subscribers who use half the bandwidth" on the network. Who are these people? How will customers respond? Will people simply go to service providers that don't have limits?
- The report that China is close to surpassing the US as the worlds largest internet market, measured by users. According to statistics released by the Chinese, they're now just 5 million shy of passing the US. Will this mean more freedom and less censorship for the Chinese? Is this end of US dominance of internet technologies.
- Scrabulous — the wildly popular Scrabble clone running on Facebook. With over half a million daily users it has popularized Scrabble to a brand new generation of game players, many of whom have never played it before. Now Hasbro and Mattel have come forward, claiming that their trademark is being infringed, and have asked that Scrabulous be removed. It's turned into a PR nightmare for the company as thousands of Scrabulous players have spoken out against the move. What should Hasbro do? While within their rights to enforce their trademark, they risk a brand damaging black eye.
- And what about the Apple Macbook Air?
Next week the SquawkBox moves to 11 AM Eastern Time, or 8 AM Pacific. Enjoy this week's recordings, and I hope to hear you on the call next week.

I can't find context, but: -- make-kpkg modules-image looks for directories in /usr/src/modules, and tries to build a third-party module from each of them; -- make-kpkg modules does the same, but also GPG-signs the result; -- you don't need to do either if you've just selected modules in the kernel configuration, since those modules wind up in the normal kernel-image package. It sounds like what's going on is that, at some point, you installed i2c-source and unpacked /usr/src/i2c.tar.gz, and now 'make-kpkg modules-image' is going off and building that. That's the expected behavior. If you don't want i2c or anything else in /usr/src, you're probably done.

Brown waits for Hibs talks
Hibs keeper Mark Brown is waiting to hold talks over his future following the club's Scottish Cup humiliation at the hands of Hearts.
Last Updated: 20/05/12 3:24pm
Hibernian goalkeeper Mark Brown is waiting to hold talks over his future following the club's Scottish Cup humiliation at the hands of Hearts.
Brown was unable to prevent Hibs from being hammered 5-1 by their Edinburgh rivals in Saturday's final at Hampden Park and is now out of contract at Easter Road.
Manager Pet Fenlon has threatened a summer clear-out following the cup thrashing and Brown is waiting to learn if he will be part of Hibs' plans next season.
"I'll need to speak to the club in the next few days to see what's happening," said the 31-year-old.
Meanwhile, Brown lamented Hibs' own failures and refused to point the finger of blame at referee Craig Thomson after the loss to Hearts.
Hibs trailed 2-1 at half-time and then conceded a penalty early in the second half which contributed to Pa Kujabi being sent off.
Big decision
Brown said: "People had problems with the penalty decision. But I don't think we can blame the referee for our performance from the start.
"Hearts started well and at times passed us off the park. You could say the penalty was a big decision that changed the game, but overall through the 90 minutes I don't think we were good enough as a team.
"It was difficult to see whether it was in or out of the box. It was a foul, but it's hard for the referee or linesman to see if it was inside the box. It was a hard call for them.
"The referee was confident enough that it was (inside), we were then down to 10 men. From 2-1 down at the start of the second half we were then 3-1 down. Within another couple of minutes we were 4-1 down and the game was virtually finished."

I would like to turn my children's books into a cartoon where should I start?
sort by best latest
I personally would start by developing the characters as far out as possible. Know them better than you already do. Then, you can take the main points from your book and make a short cartoon out of each separate point. The more well developed your characters are, the more stories you can get out of them. I'm not sure what age range this book is for, but you could have the plot of one episode be sharing or friendship or the golden rule. Try watching qubo as well. You can get a lot of general ideas for different episodes and just plug your characters into that.

Eamonn Holmes's wife says if he had affair she could never forgive him and it would be the end of marriage
Eamonn Holmes' wife has opened up about her marriage to the Belfast-born broadcaster - revealing that an affair would instantly spell the end of their 20-year relationship.
Ruth Langsford, who has been married to Holmes for five years, believes the secret behind their happy marriage lies with her strong views on fidelity.
The pair, who are regarded as television's golden couple, are usually found on ITV's sofa presenting the popular programme This Morning.
While they have one child together - 13-year-old Jack - Eamonn also has three children from his first marriage.
Ruth, who takes a tough stance on marital straying, also admitted to being the jealous type.
"If I found out he had cheated that would be the end of our marriage. That would be goodbye," she said.
"Eamonn always says - not that he's tempted to have an affair, I hasten to add - that if that ever happened and I found out he would hand over the keys and say, 'I'm off'.
"He knows that even if I tried to forgive and tried to make it work, I'm the type of woman that would bring it up at every opportunity.
"I know I would and he knows I would. I couldn't handle it. It would be hell.
"I'm quite a jealous person. If you're unhappy enough that you want to have an affair, man up and leave your partner or discuss it."
In a candid interview with the Sunday Mirror, the 55-year-old opened up about the dangers of being caught up in online flirting.
"If I found out that Eamonn had been on something like that or vice versa, to me that's cheating and that's a big deal for me," she said. "Eamonn says he can't have an affair anyway because everywhere he goes people ask, 'Where's Ruth?'.
However, she admits to making one exception when it comes to the ladies in Eamonn's life after the couple took in stray collie-dachshund cross pup called Maggie rescued by the Dogs' Trust.
"She absolutely adores him, to the point where I'm quite jealous sometimes."
Holmes, who also presents Sky News, made the headlines a few years ago when his lawyers sent a letter to the BBC after a series of sketches poked fun at his weight.
Jon Culshaw performed three sketches on the Impressions Show in which 'Holmes' apparently ate a sofa, Frankie Dettori and the gardens at the Chelsea Flower Show. However, Holmes appears to have shed a few pounds recently.
But Ruth brushed off any criticism saying she doesn't obsess over it. "You're always under pressure when you're on TV, whether it's you clothes, your hair, your weight or your marriage, it comes with the job.
"You see pictures of yourself and people will comment. I did have a tweet after going on holiday where someone asked if I was pregnant. I was like, 'No, not at 55. It's just my holiday wine tummy'.
Speaking about her husband's taste in fashion, she said: "I never pick Eamonn's clothes. He does all his own shopping. But I do love shopping with him. I can spend a whole day in a department store with him looking at lamps. There's not many men you can say that about."
The romantic couple recently celebrated their fifth wedding anniversary over dinner at a London hotel. "I organised it but Eamonn's very thoughtful with presents and gifts. Eamonn got my favourite picture from our wedding and found an artist who does lovely framed pop art.
"I got him a lovely wooden Italian shoe cleaning set and a wooden trinket box with an old map showing where we got married on it."

Intrepid reporter Sara Joslyn, having escaped the clutches of the supermarket tabloid Weekly Galaxy, is finally going to be allowed to practice "clean journalism." Unfortunately, intrepid editor Jack Ingersoll has other plans, assigning her to a gory sex-murder trial in Branson, Missouri, home to more country stars than there are in the heavens.
While delving into the muck, rake in hand, Sara runs into her old comrades from the Galaxy - Binx Radwell, Boy Cartwright, and the Down Under Trio among them. At the eye of this journalistic cyclone is country musician Ray Jones; is he guilty of the grisly murder, and what else is he up to, if anything?
The lyrics to eleven Ray Jones hits are sprinkled throughout the novel and are an important accompaniment to the proceedings, if only Sara and Jack can keep their fingers out of their ears long enough to hear it....

I have listen to Westlake's stories on cassettes and loved them. Couldn't tell when one person stopped talking and another one started. Got confused who was who, might be good story but ill have to read it to find out. Not sure I would pay for it again.
Didn't get that far.

wikiHow to Eliminate Vaginal Odor
Three Methods:Identifying the CauseGetting In BalanceGetting a Better SmellCommunity Q&A
It is normal and healthy for you to have some vaginal odor; however, strong vaginal odor can be the result of douching, excessive washing, excessively tight clothing, and certain chemicals in your soaps, among other things. This strong odor can be embarrassing. To eliminate vaginal odor, identify and eliminate the cause of the odor, balance your vaginal pH by cleaning the area properly and avoiding causes of yeast, and consider making small changes (like wearing cotton panties) to ward away odor-causing bacteria.
Identifying the Cause
1Identify any infections. If you want to stop vaginal odor in its tracks, you need to figure out what's causing it first. The most common source of vaginal odor is an infection. This can range from yeast infections, to bacterial infections, to STDs/STIs. The best practice to make sure that this is not the case is to go to the doctor and have them check you out. That said, there are a few different ways you can gauge if this is your problem:
- If you have a lot of chunky white discharge, you probably have a yeast infection. Medicine for this can be found easily at any drugstore and many grocery stores.
- You might contract a bacteria infection if you don't practice proper cleaning procedures after defecation. Do you wipe front to back or back to front? Wiping back to front introduces bacteria into your vagina and can cause infections.
- If you think you might have contracted an STD/STI, just go to the doctor to get tested. This is the kind of thing you need to know for sure, for your own safety and that of those around you. There are organizations which do free or cheap STD testing, like Planned Parenthood, and they are very discreet.
2Check for imbalances. The vagina is kind of like a rich ecosystem. Everything has to exist in perfect balance, and that balance can be really easily upset. If you use soap, antibacterial products, take baths that are too hot, go in pools frequently, use scented pads, use lotion too close to your vagina, don't change your underwear often enough or wear underwear of the wrong material, or a large number of other things, you can cause your little ecosystem to get totally out of whack. Basically, avoid using those things and just be very careful about washing every day with water (no soap!) and wearing clean clothes.
3Embrace your natural odor. Lots of women don't like the way that their vagina smells, but if you ask their boyfriends those guys will say they love it! Don't underestimate your natural odor. You might associate it with being unclean, but...this is not the case with many guys and women who associate that smell with adult 'activities', not poor hygiene. They don't want you to smell like flowers down there, they want you to smell like...er....well...you. If you've figured out that your smell isn't caused by an imbalance or an infection and that it's really just how you smell, you should probably consider coming to terms with it and embracing it.
4Consider that maybe it's him! Certain sexual practices can also cause vaginal odor, either from his bacteria colonizing your body or just the smell of sex itself...nevermind if you're taking the sexual practices outside of Missionary 101. Consider if this is the reason you smell different and take whatever measures you believe are warranted.
- Just going to put it out there: putting it in your butt and then putting it in your vagina is a terrible idea. At least switch condoms between these activities.
5Check for foreign objects. You know, it happens: sometimes you just forget you have a tampon in there. Sometimes the occasional condom (or piece of) gets left behind. These things can cause an odor as your body tries to get rid of the object. Check for objects and get them out!
- Leaving tampons and pads on for too long can also cause smells, even after they've finally been changed. Change them frequently to avoid that.
Getting In Balance
1Stop using fragrant body washes and soaps. It is best to use a mild soap with warm water. Soaps that are too harsh or have too many chemicals and fragrances can actually make your vagina produce more discharge that gives off the foul smell.
- Make sure you aren't putting any soap too close to your vagina. You can use soap to clean your pubic hair, but try to keep it away from your vagina. Soap of any kind can throw off the delicate balance of your body.
2Avoid using douches to clean your vaginal area. Douching can alter the balance of healthy bacteria in your vagina, causing other bacteria to grow and create a foul vaginal odor. You should douche only if asked to by a doctor or gynecologist.
3Eat yogurt. Yogurt that contains live cultures introduces probiotics (or good bacteria) into your body. This can reverse the problem if you have a mild case or a yeast infection that is just starting out, and acts as a great preventative measure if you start the treatment before the problem develops further.
4Avoid foods that contain a lot of sugar and yeast. Foods such as bread and beer contain yeast, and the sugar in other foods turns into yeast. These foods can increase the amount of yeast in your vagina, causing a yeast infection.
5Stop taking really hot baths or showers. This can kill your body's natural bacteria. Try taking warm baths or showers to see if it helps reduce your vaginal odor. Doing this step alone will probably not help you, however, so make sure to take a few other suggestions as well.
6Avoid pads and panty liners outside of your period. You want vaginal discharge to be wicked away from your body, not held close next to it by items like panty liners and pads. Use these only when you need them and absolutely do not use scented products (as these can throw off your body's natural balance).

1Wear cotton underwear. Panty hose and any synthetic material will block some air flow to the area. Loose cotton garments will give the region more ventilation, which will help get rid of vaginal odor over time. Wearing silky, fancy knickers once in a while for a special occur is unlikely to harm you. You are not compelled to wear loose cotton knickers every day for the rest of your life..
2Wear perfume. You can wear perfume normally to generally help reduce the smell, but if you have reason to think that someone special is going down there and you want to make sure you smell great, dab a very small amount of perfume about 4" up from your knee (on your inner thigh). Choose a perfume with a musky scent, as this will most closely resemble your natural smell.
3Apply a mixture of tea tree oil and water to the vaginal area. Mix 6 oz. (170 grams) of water with 2 drops of tea tree oil. Tea tree oil is antibacterial and anti-fungal, and will help get rid of bacteria that are contributing to your strong vaginal odor.
4Drink 1 tbsp. (15 ml) of liquid chlorophyll mixed into 8 oz. of water twice a day. Chlorophyll comes from green plants and is a natural internal deodorizer. The chlorophyll may make your tongue turn blackish, or your urine and feces a little green. These are common side effects and should not be something to worry about.
5Soak yourself in apple cider vinegar. Apple cider vinegar is a natural anti-bacterial. Add 1 to 2 cups (240 to 470 ml) of it to your bathwater and soak for 20 minutes. The vinegar should help to get rid of toxins and bacteria that is causing your vaginal odor.
Community Q&A
Why does my boyfriend think that my vagina is not supposed to smell?wikiHow ContributorBecause he is unaware of the female anatomy. Educate him that all vaginas are unique and smell differently than others.
I use scented pads; I tried to buy the normal ones but they don't seem to have any or they don't specify if they're scented or not. But the scented pads have really been affecting me; people make comments about me and avoid me because of my vaginal odour. What should I do?wikiHow ContributorScented pads are a bad idea because they can cause irritation and, as you have experienced, can actually amplify bad odors due to cross-odor contamination. Use normal pads that don't specify that they're scented. You can do a sniff test of the box - if it smells like cardboard or paper, the pads are unscented. Any other form of scent, and it's probable that the pads are scented. It's a wonder that companies do scent these products but marketing will sell anything, so it's just best to be careful and avoid them at all times.
Is it okay if I always use a panty liner?wikiHow ContributorNo. If you always wear a panty liner, you're not allowing air to get through to your vaginal area, which may be what is causing the odor.
How do I prevent fish odor from my vagina?wikiHow ContributorFish odor is mostly associated with bacterial vaginosis, a bacterial infection of the vagina. If you suspect BV, go to the doctor. It can also occur when wearing pantyliners or pads and not changing them often enough, so try changing them more often.
How can I restore vaginal pH levels after having sex with a partner who used a condom?wikiHow ContributorWash thoroughly with water then dry. Also wear cotton underwear afterward.
I don't know what the cause of the smell is and I'm afraid to ask a doctor's opinion, what should I do?wikiHow ContributorYour doctor is there to help you and will not judge you. You shouldn't be afraid to talk to him/her.
I was told that I should wipe myself with a damp towel and a little apple cider vinegar to stay fresh all day. Any takes?wikiHow ContributorApple cider vinegar is an acid, so doing that with any frequency will likely irritate the sensitive skin of your vagina. Do it 2-3 times a week at the most.
Is it safe to use apple cider vinegar daily to eliminate my vaginal odor?wikiHow ContributorDaily is not recommended. You can try do this 2-3 in a week because too much apple cider vinegar will irritate your vagina.
Will applying tea tree oil to my vagina cure a bacterial infection, or just get rid of the odor?wikiHow ContributorIt's just gets rid of the odor. You should clean yourself properly, or go to a doctor for the bacterial infection.
Is it safe to put a finger inside the vagina when bathing for cleaning purposes?wikiHow ContributorNo. You do not need to clean the inside of your vagina. Your vagina is self-cleaning. Trying to clean it by hand will throw off the delicate pH balance, which can cause infections.
I am going to try mixture, I could tell the last guy was sniffing

Canterbury coach Des Hasler has bitten back at his side's critics, brushing off claims they're shaping as NRL also-rans.
The Bulldogs are right in the mix, placed fourth with four regular rounds to play but have copped criticism after unconvincing wins over strugglers St George Illawarra and Newcastle in the last fortnight.
While Hasler attributed those performances to the opposition and also difficult conditions on Saturday in Newcastle, legends Darren Lockyer and Brad Fittler cast doubt over their title credentials.
Lockyer said he believed they were out of the running and too inconsistent while Fittler said they were "winning ugly" and getting home on the back of some individual brilliance.
However Hasler, whose side has won six of their last seven matches, pointed to their position on the ladder as proof of their credentials.
"Winning ugly, what does that mean? We're winning games when we need to," Hasler said.
"Obviously at the same time it's a pretty tight comp.
"There's three sides fighting for third and fourth and how many sides are fighting it out for sixth, seventh and eighth spot?
"I think that's a good thing."
The Bulldogs have lost just three games since round 10 in May with all of those defeats coming against sides in top four contention – North Queensland (fifth), Cronulla (second) and Canberra (third).
They are also third in the league for completions and fourth for metres made, illustrating they're capable of executing and dominating their opposition.
Asked about suggestions they weren't in the hunt, Hasler was blunt: "Well we're in fourth place."

"Invalid IP Configuration" on most wireless networks.
Preface: I'm about intermediate tech-skill-level. I really appreciate you taking the time to read and maybe reply to this. Thank you.
My work laptop will only connect to the wireless connection at work (when it does this it has a 172.xxx IP) but it will not connect to other wireless networks (when it tries, it has a weird 169.xxx IP). I get the error "Invalid IP Configuration."
I got a refurb Gateway NV53 laptop for work (wireless card is an Atheros AR5B93).
It didn't connect to any networks: work, home or coffeeshop.
I took it to the IT guy. He scratched his head and couldn't figure it out - then he gave my account admin rights and it connected to our work network. I took it home - same problem as when it had no admin rights.
I fiddled with IP settings for the last two hours. I tried various configurations of no IPV6, static IPs, and making sure my security settings were all correct. It's secured WPA2 (on the router it's WPA2 or WPA, automatic, but I tried both just WPA and just WPA2 on my laptop, no configuration works).
At the end of it all, what I learned is that if I set it to auto IP settings, my subnet mask and DNS server don't fill properly (my router is 255.255.254.0, and auto sets my laptop's to 255.255.0.0) and it gives me the weird 169.xxx IP address. If I set everything static and myself, matching up DNS and gateway and subnet and giving it any IP (I tried 192.168.0.109, 106, 2, and 192.168.2.1) it still will not connect correctly.
I've tried renewing/releasing the DHCP on the router itself, as well as running ipconfig commands.
I am pulling my hair out. (Especially because I wrote all this twice now, as I accidentally hit back in the browser )
You can see the screenshots below from when I was tweaking the IP myself and when it is set to auto. There is one screenshot where it read 192.168.9.x, I know - I adjusted it to .0.x, that's just a typo. Another screenshot or 2 read 255.255.255.0 but that's another typo, I had them set to 255.255.254.0 when doing static. In my haste and frustration, I pounded the keys a bit without thinking, at times
So, that tells you the story.
Thank you so much for being willing to help!

The problem looks like ypu don't have dhcp setup correctly or at all on your router.
To test with static use this configuration
ip address 192.168.0.2 (assuming nothing else is using IT)
subnet mask 255.255.255.0
Default gateway 192.168.0.1
Dns 1: 184.108.40.206
Dns 2 : 126.96.36.199
I will check back tomorrow morning and be able to view the pictures better.
When you are back on your work network you need to make sure your settings where the same as before. When this is all fixed you will be able to go back and forth between work and home without any problems with an alternate configuration setup.
Also if you get a chance please post a screenshot of the dhcp page on your router.

Okay - I will try that today when I can.
However - shouldn't the subnet mask match the one on my router: 255.255.254.0 (not all 255)?
Secondly, if it then fails to connect, do you know the process for changing DHCP settings on a DLink DIR-600L router?
Thank you so much, I really appreciate it.

You, sir, are a golden god!
Here you can see on my router:
router info re: DHCP
DHCP client for LAN is on.
DHCP is enabled for Wireless.
So it seems the numbers I was entering wrong were the DNS options (I had tried the 220.127.116.11 220.127.116.11 configuration once with no luck) but really the Default Gateway was way different.
Can you explain why?
Thank you so much, you really helped untie the knot in my stomach.

That is your WAN subnet "255.255.254.0 given to you by your ISP. For you PC you need a LAN subnet.
255.255.254.0 is a subnetted network. They do this so you can get your IP address and be on a different subnet as someone else.
Something that a lot of people get messed up is the fact that you have 2 IP addresses. Your external IP address and your internal address. External = 188.8.131.52 - Internal = 192.168.0.X The only device that is concerned with your external address is your router, and each device inside your local network will have there own Internal IP address.
Your default gateway is going to be pointing to your router. You need to do this because 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255 address range is a non route able address. Your router uses a technology called network address translation (NAT).
NAT takes the packets destined for the internet and substitutes a registered address for the computers private address.
Your lan should be running the defualt class C network of 255.255.255.0.
188.8.131.52 and 18.104.22.168 are googles public dns server. I had you try them just to make sure your ISP dns was working correctly.
I have never setup a DLINK DHCP but if you provide screen shots of the page or pages I can walk you through setting it up.
If i helped dont forget to rep me.

What you're showin on the picture is your Internet DHCP. (How you get your external IP address for your ISP) We need to setup up an internal DHCP. if you can provide pictures of the whole interface i can help you more.
Setup DHCP:
I'm doing this off a different version Dlink so let me know if something is different.
1. In the web browser, on the left side choose LAN Setup.
2. Back to the middle of the browser check the following settings. (if i dont specify something just leave it blank.)
-IP Address = 192.168.0.1
-Subnet Mask = 255.255.255.0
-Enable DNS Relay = Checkmark
DHCP Server Settings
1. Enable DHCP server = Checkmark
2. DHCP IP Address Range = 10 - 100 (this can really be any number between 2 - 254 i choose 10 - 20 because that 10 clients that can connect at the same time. Just remember that any IP address that are set staticly can not be in the DHCP RANGE.)
3. Always broadcast = Checkmark
4. Click Save settings on top or bottom.
5. Test it out by placing your laptop back on auto configuration.
Now I need to know how you access the internet through work. Do you have a static IP address or an automaticly assinged address?

Windows 7 Ult, Windows 8.1 Pro,
Maybe this picture from my D-link router will help.
Looks to me like the incorrect static IP settings were being used here. The Op was getting his settings from the WAN page then applying them to the LAN settings.
I would think that the standard DHCP settings would work.
Nice work Parman carry on.

Took it to work.
Set everything back to auto config.
Wouldn't connect.
Asked IT guy for static IP settings for our office network, in case my laptop just can't do auto IP...
Legally he can't tell me.
He recommends using a wireless USB card.
|My System Specs
|19 Oct 2012
You will have to remove you static entry's for DHCP to work at work. Once you get DHCP setup on your router at home you will be able to leave it as auto assign and be able to connection to both of them without any addition configuration settings.
