Two indicted for 2009 death of Somerville man
SOMERVILLE, Mass. (MyFoxBoston.com) – Two people have been arrested in connection to the death of 24-year-old Christopher Souza, authorities said.
According to the Middlesex County District Attorney's Office, Michael Barnett and his girlfriend, Kelly Murray, have been indicted for Souza's 2009 death.
For years, the case went without any clues as to who killed Souza inside his Somerville home; however, authorities said FOX 25's news coverage of the case helped generate new leads in the investigation, which lead to the charges.
The Middlesex County District Attorney's Office said Barnett wanted to buy drugs the night of the murder. He allegedly went to Souza's home, stole the victim's XBOX and PlayStation video games, and then strangled him to death with the cords from the game consoles.
After, Barnett allegedly sold the PlayStation for $50 to pay for the drugs.
Murray will be charged for allegedly intimidating a witness into lying to police during the investigation.

For seniors recovering from injury or illness and for those experiencing chronic pain, physical therapy can help relieve pain and restore physical functions such as flexibility, strength, balance and coordination.
Physical therapy combines a combination of approaches including stretching, walking, massage, hydrotherapy, and electrical stimulation among others.
The goal of physical therapy for seniors is to make daily tasks and activities easier. And to make seniors as independent as possible.
Among the circumstances where physical therapy can be valuable are for those:
Physical therapists (PTs) diagnose and treat everyone from newborns to seniors who have medical problems or health-related issues. PTs develop a plan using a variety of treatment techniques to increase a person's movement, reduce pain, and restore function.

The first goal is to reduce pain and swelling if there is any. Then, a PT will apply various techniques to increase flexibility, strength, coordination and balance. These techniques usually involve exercise such as stretching, lifting weights and walking. For more senior exercise ideas, see "Active Senior Living."
PTs can also combine an assortment of other therapies, some that may help, and others that may not. It's often a trial and error process.
Manual Therapy is therapy performed by the hands of the therapist with the goal of relaxing the patient, reducing pain, and providing more flexibility. It includes:
Cold Therapy is used to relieve pain, swelling and inflammation from conditions such as arthritis. Treatment involves ice packs (15 to 20 minute sessions), ice massage, and rest, ice, compression and elevation (RICE).
Heat Therapy relaxes muscles and improves blood circulation, which is useful for loosening stiff joints from osteoarthritis or other conditions where you've been immobilized. Heat is also used to loosen muscles before exercise.
Hydrotherapy uses water to treat diseases and to maintain health, healing soft tissues, increasing blood flow, and relaxing the entire body.
Electrical stimulation uses electrical current to create a desired effect in the body. For instance, electrical current can scramble pain signals to cover feelings of pain. Electrical stimulation is used to contract muscles in stroke victims and those with arthritis.
Electrical stimulation is the general term that describes the use of electrical current to create an effect in the body. There are several uses for electrical stimulation. Electrical stimulation therapy is often used in conjuction with cold laser therapy to provide better healing.
PTs educate patients in every session. Patients are taught how to perform daily tasks, protect their body from re-injury, perform exercises at home, and how to make their homes a safer place.
Ultrasound uses high-pitched sound waves to reduce muscle spasms and relax the muscles before and after exercise.
Treating Specific Conditions with Physical Therapy
The medical community is finding that physical therapy can be used to help patients with a variety of diseases and medical conditions—some obvious, some less so.
Most people 65 and over have some arthritis in their spine, even if they don't have the symptoms. Physical therapy can help offset future symptoms by using aquatic exercises, hot packs, electrical stimulation and other techniques.
For stroke patients, PTs use constraint-induced movement therapy, where you are forced (your good limb is restrained) to use your weaker arm or hand. Motor imagery and mental practice involves rehearsing movements without actually doing it. This stimulates that part of your brain that controls movement.
Parkinson's disease patients perform exercises that improve trunk flexibility to avoid the robotic movements the disease produces.
Incontinence patients are taught how to find the right muscles and use them correctly. Doing pelvic exercises helps strengthen muscles to better control the bladder.
PTs work Alzheimer's patients using exercise, which can improve memory and delay the onset of more serious memory problems. They also use "mirroring" where the PT serves as a mirror, showing the patient how to move. Other techniques include dancing and gardening, which help patients remember certain types of movements.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which causes difficulty breathing, is addressed with exercise training that can improve shortness of breath by training muscles and increasing aerobic capacity.
As you can see, physical therapy can help seniors in about every area of health care imaginable. If you're recovering from surgery or an illness or living with a disease, ask your doctor about physical therapy. PT can give you back your independence by increasing your mobility and making daily tasks easier.
To find out ways to stay even more mobile, read "Assistive Technology Devices."
PT can be given to seniors in a wide variety of living situations including:

yes, i agree with rosie and styxgirl ...be careful tapering! i went down 10mgs every 2 weeks then 5 mgs every 2 weeks until my script was done. you don't need to run into steroid withdrawal on top of everything else. side effects from prednisone SUCK but steroid withdrawal could be a lot worse for you :( and actually, tapering too fast can make your symptoms worse (the pain and sensativity).
take care and i hope you are feeling better real soon!

|Children are weighed as part of a routine consultation at Vilanculo's severely damaged main hospital one day after Cyclone Favio devastated the town in Mozambique.
By Sarah Crowe
VILANCULOS, Mozambique, 28 February 2007 – Just 48 hours after Tropical Cyclone Favio almost flattened chunks of this tranquil Mozambican coastal town, the people of Vilanculos were on the move – mending roofs, fixing broken power lines, cutting up fallen trees, carting off corrugated roofing and sweeping up debris.
Remarkably, very few people were killed or injured in the area. Three babies were even born in the early hours of the cyclone.
But the damage was vast. The main market collapsed into shredded pieces of poles, bricks and steel frames. Solid steel sheets could be seen wrapped like paper around lampposts.
The cyclone damaged about 130,000 homes and displaced almost 160,000 people – half of them children – many of whom are living in temporary camps.
Prevention of disease outbreaks
As soon as the cyclone died down, UNICEF set up tents as new temporary wards for the main hospital here. UNICEF also began working with local authorities to use tents as temporary schools and to ensure that additional teachers are available to staff these facilities.
The lack of fresh water in the storm's aftermath brings the danger of water-borne diseases such as diarrhoea and cholera. To guard against these threats, UNICEF staff have installed water bladders at key points around town and worked with communities to construct latrines. In addition, they have been dispatching chlorine for water purification, jerry cans to carry water, information leaflets about preventing cholera, supplementary food, emergency kits and insecticide-treated malaria nets.
|© UNICEF/2007/Delvigne-Jean
|In Vilanculos, school administrator Sandra Alberto and her five-year-old son sit in front of their house, which was severely damaged by the cyclone that struck coastal Mozambique.
The Mozambican military has been deployed to help with the rehabilitation of homes, schools, hospitals and infrastructure.
"The Government of Mozambique has been using the military in a very useful way in terms of disaster management," said UNICEF Water and Sanitation Officer Antero Pina. "They have set up the tents, they've set up the water bladders, they've set up the latrines. We are very happy with this collaboration."
Losing precious schooling
Some 220 schools were flattened by the cyclone. Local authorities have estimated that it will take up to five weeks to repair the damaged schools, for which they will need zinc sheets, wooden poles and nails. UNICEF is working with authorities to supply these building materials.
Children, now out of school, can only gaze at the wreck of their old classrooms. Education officials are concerned that they're losing precious schooling.
As school administrator Sandra Alberto walks through the ruins of her office, she recalls the night of the cyclone, when she and her children ran for cover in the dark early hours.
"There were sheets of zinc flying around all over the place. We had to run to find refuge wherever we could, but it was impossible to be outside," said Ms. Alberto. "We had to grab and hold onto the children because the winds were so strong we were scared they would be taken away."
Preparing for what's next
Cyclone Favio hit the east coast of Mozambique just two weeks after flooding, further north in the Zambezi Valley, destroyed the homes of 160,000 people.
"It is rare for a country to be hit by two massive and simultaneous emergencies within such a short period of time," said UNICEF Representative in Mozambique Leila Pakkala. "Mozambique responded quickly to the flooding but all our problems around water and sanitation, shelter, health, and education are now exacerbated by this severe cyclone."
Two more storms have formed in the Indian Ocean: Tropical Cyclone Gamede and Tropical Cyclone 16S. Both are gathering speed and are headed towards Madagascar. UNICEF is monitoring the progress of both.

Donations and grants – VAT treatment
Donation and grant income is not consideration for a supply and is a non-business activity that falls outside the scope of VAT. This is because this income is freely given with no strings attached and is treated by the charity as a gift. A grant or donation can have certain conditions attached to it as to what it can be used for; but the conditions do not necessarily make it consideration for a supply because nothing specific is being provided to the funder in return for the payments. For more information charities should read HMRC Manual VATSC50400.
If the charity merely acknowledges the gift then that does not make it business income. However, if the funder requires that specific deliverables be provided in return for the funding then that generally constitutes a consideration for supply and therefore makes the payments subject to VAT. Charities should always consider the substance of the arrangements and determine whether or not there is a supply being made in the course of business. This can be a difficult question of judgement, often involving a significant exposure to VAT; and it is likely that the use of professional advice will be required in many cases.
VAT incurred on expenditure that relates to funds raised for restricted charitable non-business purposes is not recoverable. However, where a charity which has non-business and business activities incurs VAT on fundraising costs and the funds raised support various activities of the charity, the VAT incurred will be recoverable to the extent that the funds raised support taxable business supplies. In practice, this means that VAT incurred on fundraising costs must be subject to a business/non-business apportionment to determine how much of the VAT incurred may be treated as input tax. The input tax will then be recoverable subject to the partial exemption rules.

Bad Points
Ooo, where do I start?
The song's show no point or reason, and their voices are really not something I'd boast about if I were them.
General Comments
There is nothing really that I can say about Girls Aloud's Chemistry album to lighten up my views.

OBJECTIVE—To determine the importance of rhythm regulation or rate control in patients with permanent atrial fibrillation (AF) and normal left ventricular function.
PATIENTS AND INTERVENTIONS—Thirty six patients with a mixed fast and slow ventricular response rate to their AF were randomised to either His bundle ablation (HBA) and VVIR pacemaker (HBA group) or VVI pacemaker and atrioventricular modifying drugs (Med group). Outcomes assessed at one, three, six, and 12 months included exercise duration and quality of life.
RESULTS—Exercise duration significantly improved from baseline in both groups. There was no difference in outcome between the groups (Med +40% v HBA +20%, p = NS). The heart rate profile on exercise was similarly slowed in both groups compared to baseline. Quality of life significantly improved in both treatment arms for the modified Karolinska questionnaire (KQ) (Med +50% v HBA +50%, p = NS) and the Nottingham health profile (NHP) (Med +40% v HBA +20%, p = NS). However, for the individual symptom scores of each questionnaire more were improved in the Med group (KQ-Med 6 improved v HBA 4, NHP-Med 3 v HBA 1). Left ventricular function was equally preserved by both treatments during follow up.
CONCLUSION—In these patients control of ventricular response rate with either HBA + VVIR pacemaker or atrioventricular modifying drugs + VVI pacemaker will lead to a significant improvement in exercise duration and quality of life. Rhythm regulation by HBA did not confer additional benefit, suggesting rate control alone is necessary for the successful symptomatic treatment of these patients in permanent AF.

Farnborough Air Show: Supply chain software cuts air freight costs for component supplier
High-tech component supplier JAE Europe expects to save £500,000 a year by rolling out demand planning software

High-tech component supplier, JAE Europe, expects to save £500,000 a year by rolling out demand planning software that will cut its dependency on air freight.

The company, based in Camberley, Surrey, plans to use SCM Demand Planning software to manage its supply chain and stock control more effectively.
The software, supplied by Infor, will help JAE Europe, which specialises in components for the car industry, forecast how much inventory it will need six months in advance, reducing its dependency on air freight for last-minute deliveries.
"Because our customers cannot accurately predict demand, we have carried excessive, unnecessary stock and relied on air freight to complete orders in time," said Matt Harris, supply chain manager.
JAE Europe uses air freight to deliver 80% of its components, but claims that it will be able to deliver most of its products by ship using the software to match demand and supply more accurately.
The move will help JAE to avoid stiff penalties incurred if it misses a delivery to a major automotive supplier.
"Manufacturers now realise that with better visibility into demand, they can make big cost savings and operate greener supply chain by avoiding expensive air freight," said Andrew Kinder, director of solutions marketing at Infor.

SASS Argentina guides teaching backcountry safety. Photo: Ben Girardi
At USASA we know the importance of building an all around foundation in your skiing and riding. This also comes with having the proper knowledge before venturing into the backcountry. SASS will help you gain respect for the environment and give you the tools required to stay safe while enjoying the mountains.
SASS Argentina is a big mountain backcountry guided ski and snowboard camp for all ages. They take advantage of full-on winter conditions in the heart of summer to create a platform for athletes to take their skiing or riding to the next level. Experiential education, cultural emersion and a ridiculous amount of fun are just the beginning. Learn to build backcountry jumps, practice big mountain line selection, learn about backcountry safety, land new tricks in pow, seek out natural features and crush POW all while following an all-star cast of professional guides and coaches.
"We are so excited to offer USASA athletes the opportunity to take their skiing or riding in an alternative direction," says Pete Connolly, Mountain Operations Director and Guide at SASS Argentina. "As the sport evolves, we pride ourselves in offering a unique platform for pushing into the backcountry. USASA athletes are perfect for our program as they get to take their competition skills into bigger terrain and develop a new understanding of what it takes to be successful in the mountains."
"Coming from a coaching background in which my athletes were competing in USASA events and beyond, I love being able to show them the next level by introducing these kids to this other side of the sport," says Travis Moore, SASS's managing director. "I've seen first hand how much riding big mountain terrain and learning to take to the air on natural features helps to progress an athlete's overall abilities. Not to mention how special it is to explore a new culture and experience full-on winter in the middle of our summer."
"SASS has approached the development of young adults in a very unique way. By providing top notch guides and an extensive outdoor education and cultural immersion program, they have developed a holistic approach to helping young adults redefine their skiing and riding. We are stoked to be able to connect them with our members." Michael Mallon, USASA Executive Director

One of the funniest teachers you will have. Will routinely get off-topic, and tell entertaining stories. If you have him for G/T in 9th grade, the homework will be extremely tedious, but it all levels out because he teaches in a way that's entertaining. Also uses sarcasm really well, which is always hilarious.
BEST TEACHER I had in high school, maybe ever. It is not an easy class, but if you want to go to college, get used to it. He has vast knowledge of all the material he teaches, and history in general.
Mr. Burke is a cool teacher. to pass his class all you have to do is read the book, listen we he talks things get really interresting, and do the work. You should pass the test and quizes easy. 4real.
Mr.Burke is one of my favorite teachers. he supports me in school and helps with any resources to make his class easier for me to learn in.
Burke is awesome! When you think you have the answers, he changes the questions. Yeah, he made us take a bunch of notes after midterms, but we survived.

Mr. Burke is an awesome teacher! There are times when he can be strict, but he does like to get off topic :)


text: Anyone else find it absolutely hilarious how many people are asking motorola via twitter when 2.1 will be out for the droid/cliq? No matter how many times Motorola responds with, "We can confirm 2.1 will come to the droid but we do not have specific timing yet. Check back here for updates" I just find it so funny. What is even better is their response is a bit different every time so some guy is not just copying pasting but actually reading everyone's tweets and re-typing out some response. Pretty cool on Motorola's part i thought. But still so ridiculously necessary and very funny

9/11 becomes day of service
Some Americans want it to remain a time of reflection
EarlSept. 11, 2009 3:23 p.m.
@Padraik: I was hoping no one would twist my words, but I guess that was in vain. I did NOT say "it serves us right." I said that's the reasoning OBL used. You can say he was wrong all you want. I say he went way beyond all reason. He's a fanatic. Hitler was a fanatic as well, and no one in his right mind will excuse him for what he did. BUT there was a reason it happened! It didn't happen just because. We need to deal with the reasons and see if we can make course corrections to avoid such things in the future.
PadraikSept. 11, 2009 1:15 p.m.
And OBL is clearly wrong. Remembering "their reasons" is NOT something you do on 9/11. Besides, I'm not sure hate for our way of life exactly impeded their other reasons.
When we think of Pearl Harbor or the Holocaust, do we think, "Oh, let's remember Hitler had his reasons too"? Do we think, "serves you right America, all Japan wanted was an Asian empire; why did you support the Chinese in the first place"?

We should also remember the "terrorists'" reason for their attacks on this date: our interventionist policies in the Middle East, especially the establishment of bases in Saudi Arabia after Gulf War I. This attack didn't happen because they hated our freedoms and decadent entertainment. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying they were justified. But that's the reason OBL gave.
Patriot Day!Sept. 11, 2009 7:51 a.m.
Sorry, to me this will always be 'Patriot Day'!
I still believe the only reason Pres. Obama changed the name was a 'Dig' at Pres. Bush.
Remember 'Patriot Day'! ... Serve everyday, no reason needed!
Seriously!Sept. 11, 2009 7:49 a.m.
I think doing service is wonderful I really do, but come on! I really believe that today should still and forever be a day we remember loved ones and heros that lost their lives that day. We should also pay tribute to all our local fire fighters, police officers and all our armed forces. If you do decide to do service do it for them not just for your own well being to become your own local hero.

remebered also is that warnings were given vehemently by people in positions over the aeronautics security well before this event..but were never taken in all seriousness!!
fight evil with goodSept. 11, 2009 6:37 a.m.
Apparently, I've been living under a rock.
I haven't heard of the trend to honor everything about 9/11 by turning it into a day of service.
Thanks for the story. I'm getting up now to go do a service dedicated to their honor.
UnbelievableSept. 11, 2009 2:15 a.m.
"Instead of us simply remembering ... the heroes who lost their lives on 9/11"
This is all thanks to Mr. Obama. I can't believe what this country has turned into.

In 2014, Niklas Kramer of Berlin-based band Still Parade reached out to me across an ocean to write & direct the video for the release of his new single, 'Fields'. I took a small crew with actors Amandine Thomas and J. Parker Wood up to the Beacon Hermitage in upstate New York on a cold winter day to shoot this beautiful memory-laced video.
"When we reflect on relationships past, it's so easy to find the holes that lead to the end. The longing to do it over again, to do it right is persistent. Still Parade beautifully gathers these could-have-beens and should-have-saids in "Fields." With time, they get further and further away. We are forced to take the aches and turn them into lessons."
– Portals Music
"If her song "Fields" of the two weeks before the network already knows is loaded, do you know how pathetic and touching it is. In the video, which will be no different, so keep back your tears when you look at it. This gives a whole new meaning NSFW. "

Investigation into San Francisco plane crash seeks answers
Investigators are still at San Francisco airport sifting through the wreckage of Asiana flight 214 from Seoul, which crashed landed on Sunday killing two Chinese teenagers. Despite the fatalities air traffic in the USA has barely been affected and the Boeing 777 fleet remains in the skies.
TONY EASTLEY: To the US and to its air crash.
Initial investigations have revealed there wasn't anything obviously wrong with the jet engines, it was a fine day and no nasty cross winds. So what did cause the crash of Asiana Airlines flight 214 at San Francisco airport?
Reports now available say the plane was low and slow as it approached the runway.
North America correspondent Ben Knight reports.
BEN KNIGHT: What happened to flight 214 seems pretty clear: according to all accounts, the plane came in to San Francisco Airport too steeply and too slowly.
The pilot tried to rev the engines to reach the runway, but missed it and sheared the tail off the plane on the seawall.
Some survivors crawled out of the water to safety. It's hard to imagine how they or even anyone else survived.
One survivor, Ben Levy, described the injuries he saw.
BEN LEVY: A lot of people had broken ribs, bruised ribs, spine injuries - maybe some people you know hopefully can walk again - some broken bones.
BEN KNIGHT: But what's not clear is why this happened.
The National Transportation Safety Bureau* arrived overnight to begin investigating. Its chairman is Deborah Hersman.
DEBORAH HERSMAN: One of the things that is so obvious when you go out there is the incredible devastation to that aircraft. You've seen the photos, you've seen the footage; a lot of burn damage to the fuselage, but also we see a lot of damage to the aircraft seats and the interior of the aircraft.
BEN KNIGHT: The airline's chief executive, Yoon Young-Doo, has no answers.
(Yoon Young-Doo in Korea)
"There were no problems caused by the 777 plane or its engines", he told a media conference. "Three pilots are veterans who have an experience of more than 10,000 flight hours."
The airport's electronic landing system, which helps guide pilots onto the right flight path, was switched off, but it has been for much of the summer and it's not regarded as necessary for pilots to be able to land - certainly not for pilots with that kind of experience, in clear conditions, with just light winds.
The flight recorders have now been recovered and are in Washington, where they'll be analysed today.
This is Ben Knight in Washington reporting for AM.
TONY EASTLEY: Well since Ben Knight filed that report, the US National Transportation Safety Board chief has held another news conference
Correspondent Michael Vincent, who's in Washington, has been monitoring that.
Michael, good morning, what has the NTSB boss had to say about this?
MICHAEL VINCENT: Well, the chairman of the NTSB, Deborah Hersman, has given a press conference to explain the investigation so far.
They have been able to recover the cockpit voice recorder, and she has explained that the throttles on the plane were at 'idle', and the airspeed was well below the target airspeed before the plane crashed.
She explains that they've got the voices of the two pilots talking to each other exactly seconds before it crashed, discussing what was going on in the cockpit at the time.
DEBORAH HERSMAN: A call from one of the crew members to increase speed was made approximately seven seconds prior to impact. The sound of the stick shaker occurs approximately four seconds prior to impact.
A call to initiate a 'go-around' occurred 1.5 seconds before impact.
TONY EASTLEY: Deborah Hersman speaking there. Michael, so is it clear-cut that this accident was caused by pilot failure?
MICHAEL VINCENT: The NTSB is not ruling out anything at the moment, even though one question was asked: "are you hedging towards pilot failure and not to mechanical failure?"
She said they were looking at whether the plane's engines were on fire prior to impact, and at this stage they understand that the plane's engines were working well, that they were functioning just before the plane hit, but that doesn't mean there wasn't a fire that they know of yet.
They're going through the flight data; they've got 24 hours of flight data, 1,400 parameters to go through. It may well take them many months before they're able to decide precisely what happened in this case.
TONY EASTLEY: Two people confirmed dead from this crash at San Francisco Airport; how many people remain in hospital?
MICHAEL VINCENT: Dozens remain in hospital. There are many hospitals looking after them.
Earlier today, there was a press conference from the biggest hospital that's taking care of the most patients. Many of them are still in very, very serious conditions with spinal injuries and other very serious injuries. They are not yet out of the woods and it's still not clear yet how many of those will be able to survive, including a very small child.
TONY EASTLEY: Michael Vincent, our correspondent in Washington.

Clinical studies on the key ingredient, over 12 weeks, suggest it may help: control appetite from emotional cravings, improve overall mood and sleep patterns, support losing excess body weight to feel better about yourself! On a popular medical show, America's most trusted doctor named an Asian fruit called Garcinia cambogia as a standout diet aid, announcing "Revolutionary new research says it could be the ingredient that lets you lose weight without diet or exercise." Garcinia owes its power to compound called hydroxycitric acid (HCA), which has been shown to naturally suppress appetite by boosting serotonin. In a Georgetown University study, Garcinia increased subject's serotonin levels by up to 45%, while reducing levels of leptin, a hunger-revving hormone, by up to 38%. And so the theory says, with more serotonin, emotional urges to eat seem to decrease. In yet another impressive clinical study, in the journal Current Therapeutic Research, women who took Garcinia trimmed up to 30% of their belly fat in only 12 weeks. These exciting studies have led men and women around the world to seek a safe, trusted way to boost serotonin levels and curb those nasty carbohydrate cravings that make weight loss seem impossible.

Mortgage brokers are greatly needed when it comes to buying a home and yet for most home buyers, they dismiss the idea. It might seem a little strange to say you need to waste more money using a broker but the trouble is you do. However, when you have low-income is it possible to actually acquire a mortgage? It is but it's far more difficult so how can your broker help?
Why Those With Low-Income Don't Qualify For Regular Mortgages
You may be working but if you have a low monthly income then you aren't going to be able to afford high or sometimes, standard mortgage payments. This can be a huge problem for mortgage lenders worldwide because it could potentially mean they see very little in their investment. People with low-income can often find they require special mortgages as they are classed as high risk to regular lenders. These specialist lenders are difficult to find which is why a mortgage broker is needed. Brokers are able to find a specialist lender who is more than willing to offer a mortgage to those with lower monthly incomes.
How Can A Mortgage Broker Help You?
Well, brokers are very simple professionals and they are going to have the best tools available to find you a suitable mortgage. Now, when you have a low monthly income, you will find it far harder to qualify and secure a loan so when you need a mortgage, it's really difficult. However, a broker has the ability to locate a suitable lender and find a mortgage that works for you personally and your finances. A mortgage broker Melbourne has become such an important service because they know what is going to work for you.
Brokers Are Crucial For Finding a Suitable Mortgage
Have you ever tried to search for a mortgage? No? Well, if you haven't you should know it's very difficult and it's really quite a tough process. You not only have to find a suitable mortgage lender but a great mortgage and those aren't easy to achieve. There are so many who struggle with this and that is why a mortgage broker Melbourne is crucial. These are the professionals who are going to find a suitable mortgage and will make it far easier for you too. That is why brokers have become important for almost every home buyer and they should be chosen too.
Low-Income Doesn't Have To Stop You Succeeding
Most people seem to think that getting a mortgage is impossible while they have a low monthly income but it isn't. Mortgages have become far easier in recent years for those who don't have a good track record or a high paying job. This is certainly going to be something that every buyer has to think about and in all honesty, low-income shouldn't stop you. If you can find a great broker then you can find a great mortgage. Choosing the best mortgage broker can be very useful and these are the professionals you want on your side also.

US: Centric boosts product design with Adobe connection
1 May 2009 | News | Source: just-style.com
Centric Software Inc has introduced a new addition to its Centric 8 product lifecycle management (PLM) and sourcing suite to help improve the product development process and reduce time to market.
The Centric Connector for Adobe Creative Suite integrates design sketches and files – at all stages of development – with every other piece of product design, supplier and manufacturing information.
The add-on connects product design files from any Adobe Creative Suite application – including the Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop files that most consumer goods and fashion companies typically use – with the Centric 8 PLM suite.
It is intended to promote early collaboration between designers and brand managers, merchandisers and other non-designers and speed up the creative and sample phase of garment development.
Instead of sending individual design files back and forth for review and changes, designers can use Adobe Creative Suite products to browse Centric 8, upload and download design revisions.

Right now, there are a lot of websites, like www.juaramovie.com, for example, that you can choose as the place to watch movies online on the internet. However, you need to know that not all of those sites provide all the movies that you want to watch. There are some of those that only have old movies and even trailers alone, while there are also some other sites that only provide information about the dates of the movies with the durations and so on.
In spite of that, you do not need to worry as there are still many other websites that provide the actual movies which are not only the old ones but also the most recent ones. Yet, you also need to know that such websites are also varied as there are some of them that provide the movies for free, whilst some of them require you to but the access to watch the movies. So, when looking for a website to watch movies online, it is better to choose the one that is the most suitable for you.

Kevin Spacey's Four-Letter Shocker on BBC News Show
Oscar-winning actor Kevin Spacey turned the air blue on respected BBC current affairs show Newsnight on Wednesday (04Jun14) when he uttered a four-letter word during an interview.
The American Beauty star moved to the U.K. in 2003 to take up his role as artistic director of The Old Vic theatre, and he considers himself an 'honorary Londoner' because of his close ties with the city. He was interviewed for the BBC's flagship news show on Wednesday but he left viewers of the highbrow programme stunned when he used an expletive to explain why he will "never" leave the U.K.
Spacey said, "I mean I'm never going to leave (for good). It's not like, 'Oh, I'm going to get on a plane and f**k off'. I will always be a part of this country and I will always have a place in London. It's a huge part of my life."
Revered journalist Jeremy Paxman, who hosts the show, even warned viewers in advance about Spacey's slip-up, saying, "Be warned, though. He likes the odd Anglo-Saxonism."

I have a friend who just had a baby boy and I'd love to give her a few pre-made pages.
However, I'm leary because when I do pages for myself, I get inspiration from a picture more so than the paper.
What do you think about this idea...
Would it be odd to put it together as a kit for her to do?
I have cutout her son's name and even ran them through my Zyron so they are stickers, I've also cut out various size 'borders' for pics and little add on's such as stars and some other shapes. The paper I have for her is very close to her nursery theme as well.
I found a 12x12 box in the basement and I'll cover it nicely, place the pages in the box with the stickers and so on.
What do you ladies think?
Have you ever done this before?
Sounds like a great idea!!!
It is a great idea. I have done this for two people before and they loved it.
I think that sounds like a great idea. I have trouble making pre made pages too
I think it's a great idea. I've done one pre-made mini album before for my brother's beach wedding. It came out ok but I think it would have been a lot better if I would've had pics.
2 other mini albums I've done are a new baby & my dad's wedding. For those I simply asked for pics, I edited them in photoshop (so I could do some in black & white, etc) then got my own prints & made their albums. That worked out a LOT better & I love them. It wasn't much $$ either, prints are cheap or you could always print from home.
So I would either do what you're planning to do & give the gift box *kit* or ask her to send you (email or snail mail a CD of pics) pics so you can get whatever prints you choose & make the album from them.
My first thought is does she scrapbook? If so then I say go for it! If not then it may just sit there collecting dust.
She doesn't scrap...yet..but she's big into photography so I'm pretty sure some, if not all, will get used as a scrap page.
I was also just at Michael's and grabbed a 12x12 frame. And I've made 'borders' for 4x6 pics for her to use on the page so I think she'll do OK with the whole set-up and then displaying it in a frame.
Saying that...I wish I had grabbed a glue stick to add to the kit! Some of it I've made into stickers (like the name letters) but duh! She needs to put the rest together huh? :lol: Oh wait! I can cut off a small portion of Zots Dots for her to use, huh?
Off to craft...and hammer out the kinks in this project!

Free piano sheet music from Little Richard
About Little Richard
Little Richard is the stage name of American musician and songwriter Richard Wayne Penniman that has a career lasting over half a century in which he laid the foundation for rock and roll through his charismatic scene presence and dynamic melodies.
With influence even upon other genres such as soul, funk, or even rock and rap, he has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame, as well as receiving awards from Lifetime Achievement Awards from The Recording Academy and the Rhythm and Blues Foundation. We are now happy to have this iconic figure on our database and we hope to be able to provide our users with many fresh and free piano sheets for his songs.
His stage name comes from a childhood nickname, which he preserved along the years when he began singing in church at an early age and even to his later years, when he became famous. Singing on stage during a church concert, he has been applauded and soon was able to perform in more and more travelling shows, making him perform "Caldonia" for Dr Hudson's Medicine Show soon after.
Since then, he has earned a reputation as a drag performer and soon enough he recorded eight sides for RCA Camden, "Every Hour" becoming a blue balad and his first single in his native town of Georgia. Learning to play boogie-woogie piano and starting to perform with more and more new names, he formed an R&B band with whom he played for a while. His piano skills even from his early years were terrific and we highly think that his songs will offer us beautiful piano sheets to share with our users.
Starting to record during 1955 at the J&M Studios, where he started to work on a song that will ultimately become the famous "Tutti Frutti", released as a single that November. Becoming an instant hit and reaching second on Billboard's Rhythm and Blues Best-Sellers charts, it sold over a million copies.
His next hit was "Long Tall Sally"from 1956 and that year he has had nine hits, from recordings such as "Slippin' and Slidin'", "Ready Teddy", "The Girl Can't Help It", "Lucille" or "Rip It Up", his fame continuing to rise in 1957 with "Jenny Jenny" and "Keep A-Knockin'" or later with "Good Golly Miss Molly". Releasing his first album in 1957, titled "Here's Little Richard", he became a millionaire.
Later recording gospel songs such as "He's Not Just a Soldier" or "Crying in the Chapel", as well as "He Got What He Wanted", he toured and concerted for a while, with rising European fame. Signing in 1964 with Vee-Jay Records, he released the album "Little Richard Is Back(And There's a Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On!)" and later produced two albums with Larry Williams, "The Explosive Little Richard" and "Little Richard's Greatest Hits", in 1966 and 1967.
In 1970 the album "The Rill Thing" came out, but until later, his career didn't expand as much, writing less and less music. That lasted until 1986, when the hit "Great Gosh A'Mighty" made him release another album titled "Lifetime Friend" for Warner Bros' Records.
We hope that his 60 years of activity in music can provide us with many songs to transition into nice piano sheets to feature on PianoForge, so stay tuned for more rock'n roll material!

Its gonna be a few years, like probably after DH and I are done having kids, before we bring in any kind of animal. Caring for animals with a newborn proved an impossible task for me and I had to give away our parrot because of it. That was too hard to risk again.
Yikes I'm sorry about the stomach flu. I've had that off and on and it really is the pits. I'm praying she feels better soon and that the rest of you don't get it.
Why is it that when I plan a day for house work and other chores that I never have a good night's sleep the night before? I think I was awake until 2 am and only slept to about 8 am. Looks like today is a coffee day. I'm such a caffeine lightweight that I know I can rely on coffee to give me the boost I need, at the cost of a pretty nasty stomach ache.

LOCAL councils have come under fire for spending hundreds of thousands of ratepayers' dollars on firms to lobby governments.
Planning Minister Matthew Guy said councils were wasting money on lobbyists when they could get access to politicians and bureaucrats for free.
"Ratepayers' money should be spent on better consultation or improving service delivery, it shouldn't be spent on consultants," he said.
Many councils engage lobbyists, according to the state government's Victorian Lobbyist Register.
CPR Communications was used by Greater Shepparton, Wodonga, Wyndham, Yarra Ranges and Ballarat councils, said the register.
PR firm Socom did work for Casey and more than 20 other councils represented by Interface Councils, South East Melbourne Councils, Inner South Metropolitan Mayors Forum, Gippsland Local Government Network and Central Highlands Mayors and CEOs Forum.
Greater Shepparton spokeswoman Hannah Rowlands said the council had spent $108,411 on lobbyists over the last three years to deliver "professional advocacy services" so access to appropriate political advisers and MPs could be maximised.
"The business delivers on-the-ground government relationships and assists in the facilitation of outcomes which would be unable to be delivered by staff who have or may have other conflicting responsibilities," she said.
Greater Geelong acting general manager corporate services Mike Kelly said the council had paid Redstick Communications $101,262 over three years for advocacy and communications services after a public tender.
"Redstick's assistance in a number of council delegations to Canberra during this time facilitated specific meetings and discussions that resulted in vital funding injections for a range of major projects," he said.
Former City of Casey communications manager Ros Weadman is currently listed as a lobbyist for the council.
Casey CEO Mike Tyler said that in the last three years council has not contracted lobbyists to engage with other levels of government, since this was done by the mayor and councillors.
"Rather, council has sought the expert services of these companies to assist with the development of its advocacy campaigns," he said.
Wyndham Council advocacy director Bill Forrest said $17,000 had been spent on lobbyists over the last year, with no such spending before this.
"Of this funding, $5000 was used in the 'Fix the Rec' campaign, which resulted in $9 million in Federal Government funding," he said.
Yarra Ranges acting director of corporate services Troy Edwards said the council had paid CPR $3500 for lobbying in relation to the former Swinburne University campus in Lilydale.
"We agree that we should use lines of communications with government, but often these lines are not open," he said.
Other lobbyists include The Civic Group, which was hired by Maribyrnong Council "for a range of strategic advisory and communications tasks".

Belgium's Finest Export.
By Sarah Jayne Alexander.
Imagine a snowball, starting off small, rolling down a ginormous mountain, steadily picking up momentum as it goes, increasing in size and strength, becoming a redoubtable, unstoppable force of nature, overtaking everything in its path. Now, apply that hypothesis to an everyday life situation and you'd be somewhere in the realm of where of Belgium's rising star Matthias Schoenaerts' career is currently at. They are almost a parallel of one another but for the simple difference, one is wet and cold and the other is a 6ft former Luis Vuitton model.
The 37 year old Antwerp born actor is – for the sake of argument – not 'new' to the world of acting. Suite Francaise, which is in cinemas from 13th March, is not his first film, nor his first lead. You will have seen him starring alongside the likes of Tom Hardy, James Gandolfini, Marion Cotillard, Clive Owen, Zoe Saldana, to name but a few. In fact, Matthias Schoenaerts has been starring in feature films since he was 12 years old, along-side his late father, also a famous Flemish actor in Academy Award nominated Daens. In Suite Francaise, his portrayal of German Officer, Bruno Von Falk, is not just one of his best performances to date, but is perhaps the one that seals the gap between art-house and mainstream. We're set to see him in no less than six more films in 2015. Big things, it would seem, are afoot.
Barely in his acting 'prime' and with many more roles and best actor awards sure to adorn his Wikipedia page, Schoenaerts has already acquired the nickname 'Belgian Marlon Brando' (to which he profoundly disagrees) mostly for his intensity, his onscreen presence, versatility and those heavy yet sultry brooding eyebrows. A tough act to follow but, with his ability to bring the most damaged of characters to life on-screen, it is safe to say, he is not going to find slipping into the Brando shoes and going for a long walk too much of a stretch.
The next few weeks see him take the lead in no less than three new films. First up is the tragic love story Suite Francaise (The French Suite), set in 1940 France, during the war. Taken from the novel of the same name, it is the heart-breaking tale of a German Officer and the young French woman (Michelle Williams) he has to stay with whilst his battalion is stationed in her town of 'Bussy'. The eagerly awaited film adaptation is closely followed by the release of A Little Chaos, co-starring and directed by British acting Royalty, Alan Rickman. Here, Mattihias swaps a swastika for a wig as Louis XIV's garden designer, André Le Nôtre. Finally, in another big screen adaptation of a well-loved novel, he plays Gabriel Oak to Carey Mulligan's Bathsheba in Far From The Madding Crowd. The second half of 2015 sees the release of A Bigger Splash, Maryland and Galveston.
We should also mention he has just about finished filming the transgender Lili Elbe adaptation The Danish Girl, opposite Academy Award winner Eddie Redmayne, Alicia Vikander and Amber Heard. The film is set for a November 2015 pre-award season release. Variety also reported in October 2014 that he is set to head up the cast in Alice Wincour's French Thriller Close Protection. The term 'busy' doesn't quite cover it really, does it? …PHEW!
(Above: As Alain 'Ali' Van Versch in Rust and Bone)
Suite Française was almost lost to history.
Sad but very true. Written by French novelist Irène Némirovsky, who died as a prisoner of war in Auschwitz in 1942, at the age of 39, she left behind a notebook containing the two novels that equate to today's beautifully tragic Suite Française. Her daughter, Denise, believed upon finding the treasure that it would be too painful to read and instead locked it away for over 50 years, gaining nothing but layers upon layers of dust. It wasn't until her mother's works were being sought after for an archive that the diary resurfaced and revealed, not personal encounters of her time in the camps but a love story, set during war time, suspended in time forever… or until 1998 when it saw the light of day. Suite Française was collated and published as it was intended in France in 2004, and went on to become a bestseller around the world. It currently stands with 4 out of 5 stars on IMDB and boasts an outstanding 100% FRESH rating on international movie 'metacritic' review site 'Rotten Tomatoes'.
The film was picked up in 2006 by TF1 Droits Audiovisuels who acquired the rights to the novel from French publisher Éditions Denoël. It was given a substantial budget of around £20 million and was adapted for the screen by British screenwriters Saul Dibb and Matt Charman, with Dibb signing on to direct. The film is also backed by production company's-BBC Film, Qwerty Films and Entertainment One. It has one of the strongest castings in a feature film so far this year with recently Dame hooded Kristen Scott Thomas, Focus' Margot Robbie, Lambert Wilson, Michelle Williams and, of course, man of the moment – Matthias Schoenaerts.
(Above: As German Officer 'Bruno Van Balk, with Michelle Williams in Suite Française)
This is not the first 'bad turned good' character Schoenaerts has thrown his life and soul into since accepting the inevitable and following in his famous father's footsteps. Making us hate him at the start but end up cheering for him at the end, taking us through a journey of transition, hitting bumps and of frozen ice (Rust and Bone) along the way, is just something he seems to do without seemingly much effort at all.
Chameleon like, Matthias has already fine-tuned the 'requirement for role' culture expectations of Hollywood, bulking up for his role in Bullhead in which he stars as a Flemish cattleman enticed into a shady bovine drug related deal. He just as quickly put on even more weight for his role as dad-come-fighter-come-life saver in Audiard's 2012's masterpiece Rust and Bone. In 2014's The Drop, he was almost unrecongnisable (to me anyway) as street thug Eric Deeds, opposite Tom Hardy, Noomi Rapace and James Gandolfini. He had shed a considerable amount of weight and, with sweats and a bad attitude, was a far cry from Suite Francaise's rugged, well-built German Officer. Versatility, stamina and the ability to immerse oneself in a role is, a huge PLUS when being head hunted by casting agents the world over.
(Above: As Eric Deeds in 2014's The Drop, with the late James Gandolfini)
With a monumental SEVEN films alone this year, Mr Schoenaerts' career is showing no signs of slowing down or taking a break. He has stressed making that many films back to back will not be a regular occurrence but having already starred in a number of Academy Award nominated/winning films it's almost certain a Best Actor Oscar nomination is not too far away. We'd say put him one your 'one to watch' list but you'd have to be living under a large rock in a very dark cave to miss this acting talent in 2015
Matthias Schoenaerts, you are our new favourite!
You can catch Suite Francaise in cinemas from today and check out the trailers for Far From The Madding Crowd and A Little Chaos below:
Suite Française is released today nationwide and in the US via The Weinstein Company, A Little Chaos is released in the UK on April 17th 2015, and Far from the Madding Crowd on May 1st 2015.

Kerala-born director Gautham Menon has the habit of repeating his heroine film after film. He made actress Samanatha star in both the Tamil and Telugu versions of 'Vinnai Thaandi Varuvaaya'. Samantha played a minor role in Tamil and played the lead role in the Telugu version.
Samantha's Tollywood market is going steady; the bubbly actress is one of the top three actresses in Telugu films, with Kajal Aggarwal and Ileana being the other two. Anushka Shetty a.k.a. Anushka comes next after this trio. Somehow, Samantha appears to have 'hijacked' Menon's attention which was seen to be centered around Sameera Reddy not so long ago.
Now we hear that the untried pair of Jiiva and Samantha is all set to star in Menon's next film in Tamil. Samantha played the lead role in last year's 'Baana Kathadi' opposite the lanky Atharva, son of actor Murali whose sudden demise last year surprised many within and outside the industry. After the film, Samantha received many offers but didn't go on a signing spree and was waiting for the right offer.
On the other hand, actor Jiiva's acting career is going great guns, indeed. The actor has had more number of hits than any of his contemporaries in the past two years with movies like 'Siva Manasula Sakthi', 'Singampuli' and 'Ko'. Directed by K.V. Anand, 'Ko' has gone past seventy days and is still doing rousing business at all centers in the State! A proof of his growing stature as an actor is the fact that he has been signed up by none other than Gautham Menon.
Now to see them come together will be a new experience that fans will be definitely waiting for.

Long time celebrity stylist & celebrity "Pay it Forward"
STORY BY Reyne Hirsch
Published: August 7, 2013
Sam Russell, known as a stylist to the stars has left Los Angeles for more charitable pastures.
His passion? Helping women get back on their feet, in style. After helping numerous celebrities' look great on the red carpet, he decided his rolodex could be used to give back to the community. He founded The Giving Closet and has been hard at work ever since.
This week, he partnered with non-profit "Suited for Change" to find someone in the DC area that could use his help.
Ivana spent many years hard at work until the economy shifted. Like many, Ivana found herself out of work which would last 3 years. In 2010, Ivana came to "Suited for Change" in search of clothing for an upcoming interview. Her luck seemed to change and she landed a temporary job with The American Psychological Association and hoped it would eventually become permanent.
Ivana's hard work was not overlooked by her supervisors, and she was hired on in a part time capacity. Recently, she came back to "Suited for Change" again in hopes of adding a few more articles of clothing to her closet.
This time, they had a surprise in store for her. Russell was able to acquire 50 outfits for her that ranged from weekend to week day attire, 11 pairs of shoes, 4 brand new handbags, costume jewelry, designer eyewear and an array of skincare…everything needed to put her mind at ease for quite some time.
When we reached out to Russell to learn more about "The Giving Closet" we learned this was his 7th recipient since the business was launched. He also told us, "Truth is cool. And I truly believe that if we can "over-gift" our favorite celebrities and rock stars, then why can't we re-route a small portion of those goods to people in need?"
Russell's client Stevie Wonder also played a small role in helping Ivana. Wonder had Gold & Wood Eyewear make 3 pair of sunglasses; one for him, one for Russell, and one for Ivana!
Sam, thank you for showing others the way! Also, a big THANK YOU to those designers who donated their products to help make Ivana's gifted closet so beautiful!

Clifford Chance has merged with Luxembourg firm Faltz & Kremer after months of wrangling with the Luxembourg bar.
The Lawyer first revealed the planned link-up in August, when talks were said to be at an "advanced stage".
But the merger was delayed until 1 January because of objections from Luxembourg's restrictive bar association – particularly regarding the name of the new firm.
Clifford Chance intended to call the firm Clifford Chance Faltz & Kremer, but the bar insisted it should be named Faltz & Kremer in association with Clifford Chance.
A Clifford Chance spokesman says: "We have had discussions with regard to the name with the Luxembourg bar and this is the name that was approved by them. It takes a while with the Luxembourg bar to do this sort of thing."
He says the agreed name will remain "for the foreseeable future".
Faltz & Kremer has 20 fee earners and specialises in finance, corporate, litigation and private banking. The firm's managing partner Christian Kremer will head the office.
The spokesman says Faltz's private banking expertise is "the key skill" it will bring to Clifford Chance. A Luxembourg office will also provide important backup on international finance transactions.
Clifford Chance lawyers will be placed in Luxembourg and Faltz lawyers will spend time at offices across the firm's European network.
Tim Herrington, the Clifford Chance partner who headed the negotiations with Faltz, says: "Luxembourg has developed as a major business centre, playing a key role in a number of our clients' cross-border European finance and corporate transactions.
"Faltz & Kremer have many synergies with our own practice."
