The process of translation is more than just transferring words from the SL to the TL!
It is also the transfer of culture and of cognition.
The cogno-cultural approach is an attempt to unite all these aspects!
Chapter 5: The cogno-cultural dimension of translation
What do you think these words mean?
to facepalm
auto-tuned voice
settle for a trade-off
To facepalm:
To hit one's own forehead with your hand/ palm, and drag it down one's face. Most often done in frustration or agitation. Sometimes forcefully done to others for humour purposes.
Auto-tuned voice
: to correct the pitch of voice by means of a specially designed software. Often used by singers to conceal their lack of singing talent.
Settle for a trade-off:
An exchange of one thing in return for another, especially relinquishment of one benefit or advantage for another regarded as more desirable
A few suggestions how to procede:
the conceptual shift from the source
model of conceptualising reality
the target model of
conceptualising reality
The cogno-cultural approach to translation is
Absolute correspondence
cats and dogs
k'o iz kabla
Partial correspondence
The company filed for bankruptcy
Protiv društva pokrenut je stečajni postupak
Lack of correspondence
What is translation apart from transferring the meanings of words from one language into the other?
The math problem turned out to be so easy, I could facepalm myself.
Component analysis
1. Find the smallest constituent elements in the meaning
act of hitting your face with the palm of your hand
you feel you are stupid about something very obvious
2. Translate the constituent elements into the target language
lupiti se po rukom po licu
osećati se glupo zato što nešto ne znamo
3. Search for an equivalent online by typing the translation of the key words of the first component into the search browser.
4. In the same manner, search for the second component.
5. Apply idiomatic translation and illustrate the irony.
Došlo mi je da se ošamarim kada sam shvatio da zadatak uopšte nije bio težak.
The most frequent culture-based elements in translations
: the same original source as a similar word in another language and is therefore related to that word
: the way words combine in language to produce natural-sounding speech and writing.
: words that are identical to or derived from a personal name or proper noun and their meanings depend on the base form
False cognates
: pairs of words in two languages that look or sound similar but differ in meaning
: form of rhetorical device used to suggest visual effects through words.

Anxiety Disorders
Experiencing uncomfortably high levels of anxiety is one of the most common reasons for seeking psychological help.
While a certain level of anxiety is natural, especially during stressful times, what is not normal is anxiety accompanied by serious, debilitating symptoms like relentless worrying and dread, inability to be at ease physically (almost as if one has been placed on "high alert"), and having to struggle through situations that used to be "no problem."
The major categories of anxiety disorders are: Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Panic Disorder, Specific Phobia, Social Phobia, Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, and Anxiety Due to a Medical Condition.
Anxiety is like a "false alarm." The mind and body feel "as if" they are in a dangerous situation that requires some type of decisive action. This is known as "fight or flight." However, despite this distressing state, most people simultaneously recognize that their heightened concerns and reactive bodily sensations are excessive, even irrational. Unfortunately, anxiety is progressive in many cases because natural instincts, like avoiding stressful situations (e.g., finding "safety signals," sitting near an exit), or constantly seeking reassurance, only makes this problem worse over time.
Some theorists have speculated that present high rates of anxiety are due to an increasing discrepancy between the ways our bodies learned to respond to danger over the course of thousands of years and our more sedentary and "safer" modern world. In other words, our "alarm systems" have become more prone to going "haywire" because we don't have enough opportunity to face truly dangerous, real life or death situations. In a sense, the nervous system can't differentiate between a real tiger and a symbolic "tiger," such as a big test or being criticized. (People with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) have faced truly dangerous situations, but their fears persist long after the actual threat is no longer present). Compounding this situation is our accelerated pace of social, economic, and technological change.
With proper and timely intervention, anxiety often can be treated successfully. Yet, barriers to effective intervention are quite common. Many with anxiety conditions are concerned about getting help or being stigmatized. Thus, they often needlessly delay obtaining necessary treatment, often trying every home remedy, regardless of lack of evidence. Some may feel as if they are being weak and need to deal with it on their own, or that they are letting others in their lives down. Others may experience shame or embarrassment. In fact, many people with severe anxiety become "experts" in learning how to hide their symptoms, even from close relatives or friends. They are often described as "white-knuckling" their way through anxiety. Ironically, once they decide to be more open, they often find that they have become so good at putting up a façade that others have difficulty understanding just how much of a problem anxiety has been for them.
Although every person has their own threshold for how much anxiety they can bear, a good rule of thumb is to consider seeking professional assistance when your level of inner distress and avoidance behaviors (e.g. "making excuses") are increasing, when it feels like anxiety is "taking over your life" by negatively affecting your education, job, or relationships, and when "common sense" approaches aren't working. As untreated anxiety worsens and becomes more time consuming, depression or self-medicating with drugs, alcohol, gambling, or food can become overlapping problems. Sometimes anxiety and its related problems can become so intense that thoughts about wanting to die occur. Suicidal ideations always need to be taken seriously.
Although medications can be very helpful for anxiety, some experts think that learning to understand and manage stressful situations, upsetting thoughts, and uncomfortable sensations might be an effective first step to try in many cases. If a psychological approach is not achieving the desired outcome after a reasonable time period, or if symptoms are severely worsening or associated with unsafe impulses or behaviors, considering medicinal strategies then becomes more urgent. In many cases, the best results will result from combining psychological approaches with a medication regimen. Also, obtaining a thorough medical check-up is often recommended at the outset of treatment because there are a number of medical conditions that can present like an anxiety disorder (e.g. ear infections).
In terms of specific psychological treatments, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is an evidence-supported approach for anxiety disorders, one that has been studied extensively. CBT focuses on building present stress management skills, challenging anxious thought patterns, dealing with uncomfortable physical sensations, and eliminating self-defeating avoidance behaviors.

Temperature wall function for incompressible solver
Is it correct that it is not necessary to use a wall function for the temperature equation when a incompressible solver (modified simpleFoam) is used?
I am curious because there is no such wall function available in OpenFOAM and I got good coherence with the log law for the temperature profile without an explicit wall function for the Temperature.
Thank you for your support,

MISSOULA- If you're struggling with higher food prices this year, imagine what it's like to be on a very limited budget – or responsible for feeding thousands of people across Montana.
But managers of the Montana Food Bank Network say they're managing to get by with buying in bulk, coupled with the creativity of the clients who need their help.
Any trip to the store can result in "sticker shock" now days, with post-recession prices climbing rapidly in recent weeks, especially for staples.
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics says nationally produce prices are up over 3%, while meat, poultry, fish and eggs are up nearly 8% in the latest report.
The Montana Food Bank Network is helping to offset some of the impacts because it can buy in bulk through the Feeding America Networks. The difference is tracked using a 50-pound box of "shelf stable" items, enough to feed a family for four-to-five days.
"We looked at pricing that through our network was about $35 for that whole box of food. A lot of food," explains Gayle Gifford, CEO of the Montana Food Bank Network.
"Versus if you went to a big box store or a local grocery store it was ranging anywhere from $55 to-$85 for that same box. That kind of gives you an idea the benefits of our network work, and how inexpensive. When we're buying truckloads obviously it's a lot cheaper."
During her appearance on MTN's Face the State over the weekend, Gifford said the bigger challenge continues to be how the hungry are coping with rising prices.
She says since the 1980s "shelf stable", or processed foods have gone down about 10-to-30%. But more nutritious, fresh food prices have gone up about 40%.
Gifford pointed out that means individuals and families are struggling to have enough good foods match their SNAP allocations and get through an entire month. That puts more pressure on the smaller food banks and pantries.
"When you're looking at not only what we have to purchase, being able to get bulk amounts we can certainly maximize our deductions that way. But when you're getting right down into the family they have limited resources."
"And they have the choice between buying a pound of fresh produce or vegetables or fruit, versus buying a pound of Raman noodles you're talking about quantity versus quality. And a lot of times that's a tough decision to make," Gifford added.
She says donations remain a critical part of feeding Montana's hungry with the rising prices.

text: Asked this in another thread, but thought I should try it here. Now I know for sure it's an issue, cause I got my hands on an unrooted droid and when Pandora is playing and Nav comes on and gives directions, Pandora pauses then comes back on, on its own after the the Nav stops talking. I tried playing my music app and that works as it should. So does anyone have any ideas on how to resolve this?

A FATHER-OF-THREE, charged in relation to a million-euro cannabis haul in Balbriggan last week, has claimed he was 'forced' to transport the drugs and feared for his family. David McMahon, Lagmore Meadows, Belfast, appeared before Judge Brian Joseph Sheridan at Swords District Court last Wednesday, following a garda operation two days earlier.
The 45-year-old lorry driver was charged with the unlawful possession of cannabis resin on Monday, January 18th, on the M1 at Gormanston Demense, Balbriggan. He was further charged with the possession of cannabis for unlawful sale of supply on the same date and location. The court heard McMahon had been arrested on the M1 and brought to Balbriggan Garda Station, where he was eventually charged at 8.15pm on January 19th. The defendant had made no reply to first charge, but replied 'I was forced to do it and I still fear for my family', after the second charge.

text: Just starting what was originally just going to be a side box cooker. Now I'm wondering if there are advantages or disadvantages to just going RF. Let me state that I know absolutely nothing about smoking. I figured that I'd go with the side box and attempt some smoking but would probably use it alot as a charcoal grill also. At this point, I can just about go either way with it. I'm working with a 120 gallon tank... 24" diameter and have cut approx 20" off for a fire box leaving roughly 48" of the tank for grill. My plan was to model after one that a manufactured mobile grill we have here at the plant. The fire box on it is a 50/50 offset but we mostly use it as a charcoal grill. I have a abundance of materials out in our machinery bone yard.. all free goods

Kassadin Build Guide by floh100
Not Updated For Current Season
This guide has not yet been updated for the current season. Please keep this in mind while reading. You can see the most recently updated guides on the browse guides page.
Thank You!
Your votes and comments encourage our guide authors to continue
creating helpful guides for the League of Legends community.
Kassadin Build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Passive: Void Stone
Kassadin takes 15% reduced magic damage and transforms this damage into bonus attack speed.
OP passive, helps you to hold lane early against AP (if you are against an AD you either need to Wriggle's or switch lanes, with the latter being preferred). Lategame this actually matters - if the enemy team's AP has a thing for you or if they use a lot of AOE spells that damage you, then even with an AD build you'll ramp up to 2.000+ attack speed, which kind of sucks for the other team if you have 300+ AD and 25% Lifesteal.
Q: Null Sphere
Kassadin fires a void bolt dealing 80 / 130 / 180 / 230 / 280 (+70% of ability power) magic damage and silencing the target for 1 / 1.4 / 1.8 / 2.2 / 2.6 seconds.
Cooldown 9 seconds
Cost 70 / 80 / 90 / 100 / 110mana
Range 650
OP earlygame for trades, lategame for teamfights against enemy AP. If you take Exhaust as a summoner and always silence their AP, Exhaust their AD, you'll be surprised how many teamfights you win. Take this and semi-spam it in lane, mana permitting, to keep lane control. It's useful to silence lane opponent when you want to go for a last-hit, or you can use it to last-hit a creep directly if you won't miss it while it's on cooldown.
W: Nether Blade
Passive: Kassadin's melee attacks draw energy from the void, restoring 8/11/14/17/20 mana each hit. If this effect is triggered from attacking a champion the amount of mana restored is tripled.
Active: Kassadin charges his nether blade, gaining 30/45/60/75/90 (+0.15 ability power) bonus magic damage dealt on hit for 5 seconds.
Cost 30 / 40 / 50 / 60 / 70 mana
OP earlygame to build . OP lategame to trigger your and to add some damage to each attack; coupled with red buff you'll be dealing a lot of damage per hit.
E: Force Pulse
Kassadin draws energy from spells cast in his vicinity, gaining a charge whenever a spell is cast near him. Upon reaching 6 charges, Kassadin can use Force Pulse to deal 80 / 130 / 180 / 230 / 280 (+70% of ability power) magic damage and slow enemies by 30 / 35 / 40 / 45 / 50% in a cone in front of him for 3 seconds.
Cooldown 6 seconds
Cost 80 mana
Range 400
OP skill on AP Kassadin; more of a utility skill on AD Kassadin. Take a few points early to get its base damage up and to give you a powerful ++ combo, but then ease off until lategame when you'll mainly spam it in teamfights for AOE soft CC + damage. Deals identical damage to your Q.
R: Riftwalk
Kassadin teleports to a nearby location dealing 60 / 90 / 120 (+50% of ability power) magic damage to surrounding enemy units. Additionally, each subsequent Riftwalk in the next 7 seconds costs 100 additional mana and deals 60 / 90 / 120 additional damage.
Cooldown 6 / 5 / 4 seconds
Cost 100 mana
Range 1000

Ford Australia president Geoff Polites had been confidently predicting that the much-admired, European-made, sporty Focus small car (pictured) would lead a group of new-generation imports that promise to attract first-time buyers to the Ford fold.
Polites was even suggesting a month or so ago that the Focus line-up could be expanded beyond just a couple of high-specification, five- and three-door, 2.0-litre models to include a cheaper entry-level variant. The 2.0-litre cars would have been priced about $30,000 with the entry-level model at $25,000.
Ford Australia had even gone so far as to start market research on the car by having it appear in five-door guise at the Sydney motor show late last year and at the Melbourne show earlier this year.
However, the falling value of the Australian dollar and the high cost of making the Focus meet Australian Design Rules have been blamed for the rethink.
Realistically, Polites admitted that Ford doesnt intend to sell more than a handful per month.
Even so, Ford management had said that the Focus was seen as an important first step towards turning around a lacklustre range of passenger car imports that at present have little sales image.
To the end of June, Ford had sold 10,791 imported cars, but 5952 of those were the Kia-made Festiva, which will die late this year. Ford has no direct replacement for the Festiva.
The Focus was to have been the first step in a new-model rush from Ford that is planned to include the new Mondeo, Escape light-duty off-roader, redesigned Explorer and a facelifted Laser. These cars are due in the first six months of next year.
At this stage our weak dollar is not expected to stop any of these models heading here.

Judging is what the debate ends with. Judging decides who will go home with a trophy and who will go home empty handed. The judge is the only person in the entire room who actually matters. If you read this article, you are 99.99% guaranteed to never go home empty-handed.
Judging is basically what the judge does to determine a debate's winner and loser. And don't forget speaker points, because those count too. Anyway, judging is one of the most feared times in a debate. The suspense... Will I win?... Will I lose??... You're just waiting for the words "YOUR TEAM WON!" but you know that they may never come. How, then, can you ensure yourself a good shot at winning every time no matter the opponent? By understanding what goes on in a judge's mind (or at least what's supposed to happen) and learning what judges look for in a debate. Here are 6 things to keep in mind:
First, judges are all trained to take a flow chart. Flow charts are how judges translate a debate onto paper. The judges flow chart shows him the course of the debate and, in the end, who won or lost, how many points an individual refuted or didn't refute, and everything in between. It is key, therefore, for a debater to be able to keep organized and state each point clearly before either elaborating on it or refuting it if it's an opponent's points.
Secondly, judges are trained to listen for direct rebuttals. This basically means that judges are taught to pay special attention to rebuttals and to reward passionate clashes between two teams. The more "fire" and "clash" in a debate means higher speaker scores for both teams, because it tells the judge that 1) these people know what they're talking about 2) that they are passionate and really want to win the debate.
Third, judges are told to monitor heckling and the obnoxious-ness or strategic-ness of them. Heckling that is just meant to distract a debater is a minus for that person's speaker score, whereas one that stops your opponent's and forces them to concede a point is a huge plus on your part in the judge's mind.
Fourth, POIs. POIs are like a double edged sword: They're fun to ask, but hard to answer. Unfortunately for you, judges look for both in a debater. In the debate, the thing that judges are taught is for a good debater to take about 1 or no POIs in his/her speech, but to ask a lot more while the opponent's are speaking. POIs should set you up in a debate, and judges love it when you set up your opponent's with your POIs for a rebuttal.
Fifth, judges look for A-R-E format and arguments and stuff like that. But that's pretty basic. They look for impacts, also, which is how much that point weighs compared to your opponent's points. They look for strong evidence, consistent reasoning, and a bunch of points to outnumber the opponent's points.
Lastly (Sixthly??), judges are aware of behavior in a debate; be courteous, don't be rude, obnoxious, or attack your opponents personally, and maintain good composure throughout the debate. Decorum, people!
So that's what goes on in a judge's mind, and though you may think they're crazy, this is really what's going on inside there. Use it to your advantage, or forever suffer the consequences.

Vision Working Group
Report and Scenarios
John F. Meagher, CIH
Past President, Metropolitan Washington DC Chapter
World Future Society
Professional Futurist and Consultant
Metropolitan Washington DC Chapter World Future Society, 2012
Forecast a broad range of plausible futures for the PNSR Working Groups
9 future scenarios set in 2020, 2040 and 2060
Based on STEEP trends combined with wildcard events
Not predictions
All scenarios easily adaptable to media (one has been so far)
Provoke innovative discussion about future national security structures and processes within the PNSR working groups
Stress test PNSR recommendations
Enhance the long-term relevance of PNSR recommendations
The Stress Scenario
"In this scenario, we are struggling to get back on our feet after a major biological attack and witness a debate about the future role of the US government both at home and abroad."
The Stress Scenario
"The entire federal government is caught in the conundrum of how to respond to anonymous attacks at home and abroad while avoiding an escalation to nuclear war."
Windows 13
A fatal exception 0E has occurred at 0137:BFFA21C9. The current application will be terminated.
* Think CTRL+ALT+DEL again to restart your watch.
The Stress Scenario
"National Strategy Integration and Visioning Agency (NSIVA) was created in 2013 to assist the President and his Administration in developing a dynamic national grand strategy. The ability to create such a strategy was complicated by interagency stovepipes…political constraints…and the technical difficultly of developing an integrated strategy in an increasingly complicated and interconnected world."
The Stress Scenario
"In this scenario, the United States faces its worst economic crisis since the Great Depression. The crisis is a perfect storm of the unintended consequences of new technologies, policies, court decisions, and popular expectations"
The Stress Scenario
"In this scenario, we explore the intersection of unmanned, robotic warfare and on the ground diplomacy."
The Stress Scenario
"In this scenario, we envision major competitive changes in the Earth- Moon system from the perspective of a traditional agency space working group…it is hard to put a finger just when the land grab for the Moon began"
The Stress Scenario
"In this scenario, we examine a plan to apply proven neuroscience, psychiatric, and medical techniques to the control of pathological behaviors in a world of readily accessible weapons of mass destruction."
The Stress Scenario
"Despite decades of good intentions, as well as political posturing on the importance of "doing something" about global warming, nothing significant had been done. Yes, there were treaties...but the growing prosperity (and the corresponding fossil fuel emissions) of Asia, Latin America, and more recently the Central African Union, had dwarfed these efforts."
The Stress Scenario
"On occasion she'd smelled a faint miasma, the results of a skirmish too small to see, or she'd trip on a small sinkhole that had yet to be repaired. But again, this was a small price to pay for a world without hunger, poverty, disease, and aging, all thanks to the everyday miracles of nano production."

Barcelona forward Lionel Messi won a record third Golden Boot on Wednesday for scoring the most goals in Europe's domestic leagues last season.
The 26-year-old Messi helped Barcelona win the 2012-13 Spanish league by scoring 46 goals despite missing several games with a right hamstring injury near the end of the season.
Messi also won the award for 34 goals in 2009-10 and a Spanish record 50 in 2011-12.
The first player to receive the award three times, Messi dedicated his latest trophy to his family and his teammates, calling it a team award.
"This is a beautiful award that goes to the entire squad for what it has done," Messi said. "It is a group award more than an individual one because those are a lot of goals.
"I wouldn't have won it without them. This one or the previous ones."
Messi is recovering from a left hamstring tear that will probably keep him sidelined for the rest of 2013. It was his third leg injury of the season.
Before his latest injury, he had eight goals in 11 league appearances.
After receiving the trophy from former Barcelona star Hristo Stoichkov, Messi said his leg was feeling better while remaining cautious about rushing back.
Several teammates, including Cesc Fabregas, Xavi Hernandez and Carles Puyol, along with club president Sandro Rosell were in attendance.
Messi has won the world player of the year award an unprecedented four years in a row.
He is again nominated this year, but he has tough competition from Real Madrid rival Cristiano Ronaldo and Bayern Munich star Franck Ribery.
Messi has played a major part in Barcelona's impressive run of titles in the past decade.
He has won three Champions Leagues, six Spanish leagues, two Copas del Rey, two Club World Cups, six Spanish Super Cups and two European Super Cups.
Barcelona's all-time leading scorer, Messi's 65 goals in the Champions League is second to former Madrid striker Raul Gonzalez's 71.

The podcast of Programme 196 is now available here to listen or download: https://www.spreaker.com/user/benemlynjones/hpanwo-show-196-alien-interview-20.
This week on the HPANWO Show: a special programme to mark the twentieth anniversary of the emergence of the "Alien Interview" film, mysterious footage of an extraterrestrial being that came out a year after the Alien Autopsy film (see here for details: http://hpanwo-radio.blogspot.co.uk/2015/08/programme-149-podcast-alien-autopsy.html). The Interview is far less famous than the Autopsy, but is a far more credible piece of UFO/ET evidence, in my view. The programme includes an interview with the Alien Interview researcher, Sean David Morton, see: http://www.strangeuniverseradio.com/. There will also be a recorded statement by the British Alien Interview researcher Andrew Burlington, see: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheAlienInterview/.
Also: All the latest news, details of upcoming events and space weather.

malaz wrote:I think breaking dawn should be one movie. only.
and i have my reasons.
I do NOT want to see kristen stewart (and her bad acting) laying on a bed with a buldged stomach for half of the movie. I think all of this can be cut. to be exact. the second book (jacob's book) isn't a huge part of breaking dawn and I don't think it's needed really in the movie.
I think breaking dawn as one movie can work at perfectly (2:30 minute movie that is)
The movie should start with the wedding, Isle Esme. Bella is pregnant and they show kristen stewart and that the baby is killing her. fastforward to the pregnancy (it shouldn't be too mild or graphic. i wouldn't be able to take it) Bella becomes a vampire. nessie is healthy and pretty. and Irina comes. and i think they can working both book three and book 1 perfectly into one with the second book blended in the middle.
If they get the right screen writer and the perfect director, i don't see how it can not work perfectly. i think breaking dawn as two movies is really pushing it. because the book is so thick, 300 hundred pages are on bella's pregnancy, 200 pages on the wedding and isle esme. and 300 pages on the voltri coming. If they take out all the important events and set a perfect pace and flow to the movie. i think it can really work.
Hey There Elizah wrote:I'm still in shock most people think it can be done in one movie...
If they can have enough to turn the crap book that Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows was into two movies then Breaking Dawn definitely needs to be two movies.
Nothing even happened really except for camping in the Deathly Hallows until the end...
Breaking Dawn has so much that needs to be covered for it to make any sense.
Stuff that has to be shown:
Movie 1 should go:
Getting ready for the wedding.
Bella being worried about Jacob.
Edward going to the "bachelor party".
Jacob showing up and almost fighting.
Isle Esme.
Bella finding out she is pregnant and the South American woman.
Bella calling Rosalie.
Jacob finding out that Bella and Edward are back.
Jacob showing up at the Cullens.
Pregnancy and everything related. Whether you think so or not it is important or S.Meyers wouldn't have written it.
Jacob leaving the pack then Seth and Leah joining him.
Figuring out that the baby needs blood.
The "truce" meeting in the woods (with corresponding Seth being dropped on his head convo. haha.)
Bella giving birth and her heart stopping.
Jacob imprinting.
Then we hear Bella's heartbeat start again in the background and credits roll.
Movie 2 should go:
A brief artistic way to explain what happened in movie 1.
Hearing Bella's thoughts as she is burning and her struggling not to scream. Opening her eyes and seeing everything for the first time. Freaking out when Edward touches her. Showing how controlled she is. Seeing herself for the first time.
Jumping out the window and over the river to go hunting. The whole hunt scene, including breaking off from hunting the humans. Asking about Renesmee.
Jacob being there when they get back. Holding Renesmee for the first time. Attacking Jacob for imprinting and nicknaming her Nessie.
The cottage.
Jacob telling Charlie. Not killing Charlie and the following relationship.
Everyone being worried about Renesmee growing so fast. Bella planning the trip to Italy and fighting with Edward about it. Planning for everyone going to Rio.
Seeing Irina when hunting. Alice's vision of the Vulturi. Alice and Jasper leaving (Grrr!)
Collecting vampires witnesses. Bella visiting J. Jenks and getting the papers. Bella learning how to fight and about having a power and how to control it.
Going to meet the Vulturi. The wolves stopping them. Bella's power exploding. Alice showing back up with Nahuel.
The Vulturi having to give up and running away with their tail between their legs.
Everyone celebrating and the Cullens reuniting with Alice and Jasper.
Edward and Bella going into their perfect piece of forever.
The End...
Perfect. Plenty for 2 movies.

In a crowded field, Hyundai's Elantra HVT value bet is let down by a poor-quality finish, says Bill McKinnon.
Good: The best low-price, big-car, lots-of-gear deal in the class. The 2.0-litre four-cylinder works well in the bottom half of the rev range, where it's also quite refined. Comfortable seats. Compliant ride. Spacious and practical load area. Long warranty.
Bad: A bottom feeder in the handling pond. Ordinary fit and finish quality. Engine/transmission refinement falters at high revs. Some poor crash-test results on previous models. Instruments could be more legible. Average brakes. Below-average resale values.
Verdict: Better value on paper than on the road.
Stars: 2 (out of 5).
Hyundai's Australian operation, formerly in the hands of an independent distributor, became a wholly-owned subsidiary of its Korean parent in September, 2003.
It was fortunate timing. The Australian dollar's bull run allowed the factory to waste no time in restoring Hyundai's value-for-money reputation by adding equipment and reducing prices. However, there are some smoke and mirrors involved, with the deal for now at least exclusive of on-road costs.
The new Elantra range competes in a Melbourne Cup field, where value-conscious buyers at the $20,000 price point have backed the Corolla into odds-on favourite. However, on paper at least, the Elantra is attractive each-way value. It now boasts the second-lowest price in the class: $18,990 for the five-speed manual. Its new 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine, with variable-intake valve timing, produces the class's highest power and torque numbers -- 105kW at 6000rpm and 186Nm at 4000.
Hyundai also has the longest warranty on the market -- five years/130,000km. And the base-model Elantra has the most generous standard equipment list: air-conditioning, power windows and mirrors, remote central locking with an alarm and a CD/MP3 player with six speakers. Some larger cars that cost twice as much as the Elantra have less gear.
Safety features include two front airbags, with occupant-sensing on the passenger's side that prevents deployment if the seat is unoccupied, plus pretensioners and load-limiters on the front seatbelts.
The Elantra is available in two body styles -- sedan and five-door hatch -- plus two equipment levels. The Elite, at $23,990, adds leather upholstery (seat facings), ABS brakes, a trip computer, sunglasses holder, 15-inch alloy wheels with wider tyres, and fancy instruments.
The most obvious changes from the 2000-2003 model are the usual front-end facelift and rear nip and tuck, plus new tail lights and wheel trims. It works. The Elantra hatch actually got a few compliments on test -- a first for the brand. The front-end treatment, particularly the dark headlight housings, gives the car a presence beyond its pricetag.
Hyundai has made other changes that add to the Elantra's already high space and practicality quotient. The driver's seat cushion now has separately adjustable height and tilt, plus lumbar adjustment. There's more oddment storage and a shopping-bag hook on the front passenger seat backrest. The three child-restraint anchors -- with three clips, rather than the one offered by most other manufacturers -- have been moved from under the tailgate to a more practical spot immediately behind the back seat.
The 2.0-litre engine's strength is its ability to pull the higher gears with remarkable ease from as low as 1500rpm. It's a relaxed, refined device in the lower half of the rev range, and can cruise around town or on the highway without any strain. Its unstressed nature also produces good fuel economy, particularly in the city. The test car was a manual, but the 2.0-litre's tractability would also see it work nicely with the optional four-speed automatic.
At higher revs, it is less impressive. Although it continues to breathe fairly efficiently, some vibration intrudes, to the extent that it triggered a couple of plastic-on-plastic sizzles in the test car's dash. It also has an annoying habit of holding revs when youre changing gears.
The five-speed gearbox has a similar character. When short-shifting under 3000rpm, it is light and smooth with a positive action. Work the engine harder and shifts become rather loose and notchy, accompanied by some gear whine. The test car's gearbox also had an intermittent clicking noise, which was a bit of a worry.
In the everyday suburban and highway context, the Elantra presents no major problems, but handling is ordinary. A hint of enthusiasm on tight corners -- or open ones -- produces lots of understeer as the plot leans heavily on the outside front wheel, testing the modest grip of the standard-issue 185/65 Hankook tyres. You often need to take a second, more emphatic mid-corner bite at the light, indirect steering to counter this tendency to run wide. Road feel at the wheel is minimal. Braking performance is merely adequate.
On rough country roads, the Elantra maintains composure and stability pretty well. A hard whack at the back end produces some body movement in the hatch, evident in the occasional clunk from the tailgate. Some tyre rumble is also generated on coarse bitumen. The trade-off for the model's soggy dynamics is a relatively compliant, comfortable ride by class standards, especially in town.
The Elantra's driver's seat has just enough travel for tall occupants. The variety of adjustments makes it easy to get comfortable and there's reasonable upper-body support. The wheel is height-adjustable, but reach is fixed. Vision is clear around the car, although the hatch has thick rear pillars.
The no-frills dash shows Saab influences in look and layout. The unremitting grey palette extends to the instruments, which need brighter, more contrasting tones to improve legibility. The audio head unit has few buttons, which are easy to hit.
The air-conditioning uses simple three-dial controls. Big vents push through plenty of air. No centre console box is provided, but oddment storage includes a few small bins, plus bottle- and cup-holders.
Fit and finish in the test car were below acceptable quality standards. Hyundai still has problems achieving consistency here; some other models tested, including the $13,990 Getz, have been excellent.
As well as the vibration-induced noises in the dash, there was something loose behind the rear-pillar trim, the plastic mouldings on the back of the front seats were not securely fixed and several trim pieces had large and/or variable gaps.
Safety is also an issue. The current model has not yet been independently crash-tested; previous Elantras have scored only one or two stars out of five in European and American NCAP tests. The just-superseded Elantra (US model, left-hand drive) scored only one star in the offset frontal crash test; a 2001 model, tested locally in right-hand drive form, managed three stars.
Two tall adults can travel comfortably in the firmly padded back seat, which has easy access and plenty of space. The backrest is quite flat; three lap sash belts and head restraints are provided. The hatch has an expansive cargo bay, although the carrying of bulky objects is restricted by the tapered tailgate. It is also quite heavy to raise and lower.
The 60/40 split rear seat backs fold forward (but not flat), extending the floor to 1.72 metres without compromising front-seat travel or requiring removal of the head restraints. A full-sized spare and an extra storage tray are under the floor.
The Elantra is no great shakes to drive. At the $20,000 price point in this class, neither is much else. Around the burbs, and on the highway holiday trek, it will do the job. No more, no less.
It does present a case if you're looking for spacious transport, the security of a long warranty and as much gear as you can get at a rock-bottom price. Safety and quality, though, remain problematic.

Review for Lee Adams Tire & Service
Jonika H. on 07/11/2014
Jonika said the business does excellent work but this visit was not the best. The air conditioning was not working, so she walked over to the nearby mall to stay cool. When she returned to the business, both employees were on the phone. She stood at the hot counter while one of the employees began texting after ending his phone call. She stated that she felt their behavior was very rude.

As you probably would have heard by now, Love Actually is getting a sequel in the form of a 10-minute featurette which will include many of the original cast members.
Filming is already underway, and photos of Liam Neeson, AKA Daniel and Thomas Brodie-Sangster, AKA that adorable little munchkin Sam reuniting on set will give you All Of The Feels.
We're not crying, you are.
Oh, and guess who else was there? Olivia Olsen, AKA Joanna, Sam's kid crush! Just eleven when she starred in Love Actually, she's now 24.
Remember her?
Now, we don't want to jump to conclusions … so we won't. But this is all making us nostalgic AF and we can't wait to watch when it airs in the UK on BBC1 on March 24 (and will probably hit the internet soon after).
As confirmed by The Hollywood Reporter yesterday, Love Actually's director Richard Curtis is making a 10-minute mini-sequel to the film set in 2017, set 14 years after the original took place. Hugh Grant, Keira Knightley, Colin Firth, Bill Nighy, Liam Neeson, Andrew Lincoln, Thomas Brodie-Sangster and Rowan Atkinson have all signed on for the project, although sadly Emma Thompson, Martin Freeman, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Laura Linney and Rodrigo Santoro have unfortunately not.
And obviously, the late Alan Rickman. RIP.
There are a whole lot of loose ends to explore and potentially tie up in just 10 minutes, but we're hopeful the writers and directors can do one of the best rom-coms (and Christmas movies) of all time justice.
This very exciting development is being made to support Comic Relief, a biannual fundraiser for Red Nose Day.

Many people have a negative perception of tax havens; however, we are all beneficiaries of tax havens in ways you might not expect, says Daniel Mitchell, a senior fellow at the Cato Institute.
First, if you live in a developed country, your taxes are probably much lower today than they were 30 years ago, thanks in part to tax havens:
- In 1980, top personal income tax rates in Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries averaged more than 67 percent, while corporate rates averaged nearly 50 percent.
- Top personal tax rates now average only about 40 percent and corporate rates have been reduced to an average of about 27 percent; governments are cutting taxes because they fear that jobs and investment will flee across national borders.
Second, Caribbean isles aren't the only places that welcome tax refugees. The United States could be considered the world's largest tax haven:
- The U.S. government generally does not tax interest and capital gains received by foreigners who invest in America.
- Thanks in part to these attractive policies; foreigners today have more than $12 trillion invested in the United States.
- Yet if all nations are saddled with the obligation to help enforce foreign tax laws, it is quite likely that a substantial share of that job-creating capital will flee the United States.
Finally, there is even a moral case for tax havens: They play a critical role in protecting people who are subject to religious, ethnic, sexual, political or racial persecution. Most of the world's population lives in regimes that have inadequate human-rights protections and people with assets often are targets of oppressive governments, says Mitchell.

BOTHELL — Marcus Williams can do just about anything on a high-school basketball court. He stands 6 feet 7, all arms and legs and grace. He can post up, or play the perimeter.
Opposing coaches have yet to find a way to stop him.
So when push came to shove last night, and the outcome that once seemed certain suddenly looked anything but, Williams did what he usually does in such situations. He took over.
The Roosevelt High senior scored 16 of his team's 22 points in the fourth quarter as the Class 4A Roughriders held off Issaquah, the state's sixth-ranked team in 3A, 64-57 in the first round of the Oh Boy! Oberto Christmas Classic at Bothell High School.
Williams, who has signed with Arizona, finished with a season-high 37 points on 11-of-18 shooting, eight rebounds, three steals, two assists and two blocks.
"I feel that my role on the team is to lead," Williams said. "I really wanted to make sure that we took advantage of our lead. We didn't want it to slip away. I kind of told our guys I wouldn't let us lose, that I'd do whatever it took."
The Roughriders (3-1) advance to face 10th-ranked South Kitsap (5-0) in the semifinals today at 7 p.m. at Bothell. The Wolves from Port Orchard beat Renton earlier yesterday.
After leading by as many as 15 points in the second half, Roosevelt saw its lead dwindle to 42-39 early in the fourth quarter as the Eagles (7-1) mounted a 13-2 run behind senior guard Garrison Carr.
Carr scored 11 consecutive points during the burst and finished with a team-high 30 points on 9-of-26 shooting, seven rebounds and three steals.
Roosevelt responded with a jumper from Williams at the 7-minute mark and returned its lead to double digits with a 10-2 run over the next 1:45.
"All the good ones make everybody around them better," said first-year Roosevelt coach Bart Brandenburg of Williams. "This team is starting to trust each other, which we've been working on ever since I stepped through the doors at Roosevelt."
The loss snapped a seven-game Issaquah win streak and marked the Eagles' first defeat this season.
"They outplayed us, outhustled us, outcoached us, and outmanned us the whole game," said Issaquah coach Jeff Patrick. "We fought, made a little run, tried to make it interesting. But for the most part we didn't play the way we've been playing the last seven games and that's probably my fault."
David Grant added 11 points and 10 rebounds for Roosevelt.
Other games
South Kitsap 82, Renton 65
Derrick Webb scored 22 points to lead four Wolves in double figures as South Kitsap (5-0) from Port Orchard, ranked 10th in Class 4A, rolled against 3A Renton (4-2).
South Kitsap pulled away with a 13-5 run late in the third quarter. Marc Williams scored 29 points on 13-of-23 shooting for Renton. He had 17 of the Indians' first 22 points.
Kennedy 62, Interlake 52
Sophomore De Angelo Jones, a 6-3 guard, scored 35 points on 13-of-24 shooting and grabbed a game-high 16 rebounds as Kennedy (5-1) of the Seamount League beat Interlake (5-3) of the KingCo 3A Conference.
Interlake senior Bryce Brigham scored 24.
Bothell 63, Clover Park 58
Seth Johnson scored 20 points and made 7 of 10 free-throw attempts in the final 1:39 as 4A Bothell (3-1) held off 3A Clover Park (3-5).
The Cougars took the lead for good, 42-40, on a layin by senior Jake Grant with 5:58 remaining.

On May 25, 2016, police officers with the Eighth Brigade of Iraq's Federal Police arrested an Islamic State suicide bomber wearing a PBIED vest at a security checkpoint in Kadhimiya, a predominately Shi'ite neighborhood of northern Baghdad, Iraq. The PBIED was neutralized by security forces and the IS operative was taken into custody.
This thwarted PBIED attack as well as other more recent attacks, demonstrate that IS has no intention of relenting in its efforts to subvert security and the political situation in the capital. The attacks point to the resilience of the Islamic State group, which has claimed responsibility for many of the deadliest attacks. By sowing discord among the forces opposing it in order to weaken them, IS hopes to undermine the military offensives currently pushing the group out of areas it currently controls.

The government is planning to axe scores of its lawyers, reversing a rate of growth in its legal system that is 1,000 per cent higher under New Labour than under the Conservatives.
Several key government lawyers confirmed to The Lawyer that cuts were imminent. The head of the Government Legal Service Doug Walters said: "Government lawyers are not exempt from the exercise [of reducing civil service levels]". The date of the cuts will be up to individual departments to set.
A senior Government source added weight to the expectation of considerable legal spend cuts. He told The Lawyer: "One department has said it has to find savings in terms of its legal spend. The department in question is looking at services provided by its legal team and has decided not to have as many lawyers as it currently does."
These cuts follow an extraordinary rate of growth in the number of government lawyers since New Labour came to power in 1997.
Between 1992 and 1997 the number rose by just 50, while it has grown by 652 under Tony Blair's rule.
This means Labour has expanded its legal department by an average of just under 100 a year – against 50 for the whole last five years of the Tories' rule.
However, there has already been signs of a winding down of government legal spend. In the past year the number of lawyers rose by 61, from 1,878 to 1,939, against increases of 117 in 2002-03 and 157 in 2001-02.
The legal head of one government department said: "As a department we've taken a headcount reduction and we in the legal department are sharing in the pain."
Rapid growth in legislation and the increased litigiousness of society are the main causes of the growth, which is soon to come to an end, alongside a general expansion of Whitehall bureaucracy.
David Seymour, head of legal at the Home Office, which has 50 lawyers now compared with 18 in 1997, said: "Policy can no longer be devised without knowing the legal parameters from the outset, meaning lawyers need to get involved in the policy process at an earlier stage – so you need more of them."

Study Finds Vast Disparity in Utility Emissions
March 21, 2002
Two environmental organizations and a New Jersey utility are issuing a study designed to influence the debate over revisions to air pollution rules. The study attempts to rank --from greatest to lowest -- polluters in the power industry.
It concludes, "that a large number of companies are relatively clean, and a relatively small number are responsible for the vast portion of emissions."
The study is based on publicly available emissions data and results from a collaboration between three environmental groups.
Not surprisingly, the greatest polluters tend to be the companies that have the most power plants and generate the most electricity.
- The three largest electricity companies in the U.S. -- American Electric Power, the Southern Company and the Tennessee Valley Authority -- together accounted for 17 to 24 percent of total industry emissions of the four pollutants tracked in the study.
- When companies are ranked on the amount of pollution produced relative to their power output, small or mid-sized companies are sometimes singled out.
- Companies that use natural gas or nuclear fuel usually get higher marks than those run on coal -- again, no surprise.
- Spokespersons for some of the companies that fared poorly in the study contend that it represented a snapshot in time -- not a chart of the progress they have made over the past decade or so in cleaning up their emissions.
