MOVIE SYNOPSIS [ General Audiences ] It is a paradox. Never before in history have we worked so efficiently. Never before have we saved so much time with such sophisticated technologies. Anyway, most of us are feeling the increasing time pressure. It seems that the same technology that has been invented to make life easier, now enslaves us.? My experience over time I limited to one sense: do not have enough ?. We can all share the premise of the documentary Florian Opitz. Although the XXI century technocracy everything moves faster and never in its history mankind has worked so effectively and speed, the truth is that the pressure of time on our lives has only served to increase. We live under constant acceleration factor. And we do not stop it. The great paradox of our civilization originates from the machines we have invented: the same technology that is supposed to make our lives easier and better life is really enslaving us, stealing our time. The machines have colonized us, and although we do not realize our vision of the world, and the alleged control we have over it, occurs in truth through the eyes of computers. Under the belief that we have not yet reached the point of no return, that we still have time to correct the disturbing fate of our civilization, Opitz explore other lifestyles in countries as remote and unknown, such as Bhutan, where the government policy is based not on the growth of wealth but in the growth of happiness ..

Using Featured Image as Header: Size Question
I'm using Twenty Eleven, and have seen the recommendations for using a child theme and functions.php to re-define the header size. This works for run-of-the-mill headers.
I'm struggling with using a Featured Image. When I used an appropriately sized featured image (at least 100 x 288) the image is always cropped to 288px, regardless of what I put in functions.php.
When I add a new header image under the Theme tab, this is always 180px as I have defined. The lines from my child theme functions.php are:
remove_filter( 'HEADER_IMAGE_WIDTH', 'twentyeleven_header_image_width' );
remove_filter( 'HEADER_IMAGE_HEIGHT', 'twentyeleven_header_image_height' );
define( 'HEADER_IMAGE_WIDTH', apply_filters( 'child_header_image_width', 1000 ) );
define( 'HEADER_IMAGE_HEIGHT', apply_filters( 'child_header_image_height', 180 ) );`
Can anyone help with this case…changing the default size of a featured image used as a header?

Modimolle - Women from all walks of life - young and old, black and white - sang and danced in solidarity outside the Modimolle Magistrate's Court on Friday ahead of the appearance of Johan Kotzé and his co-accused.Friends wore pink T-shirts in support of the alleged victim, Ina Bonnette, 42. A group of teenage girls were dressed in denim shorts and white T-shirts bearing pictures of hearts and the words, "Vir Ina [For Ina]".Her friend, Elize Coetzer, told reporters Bonnette had received a threatening phone call in Afrikaans on Thursday afternoon, but did not go into details. When Kotzé arrived in a police van, protesters outside the court became rowdy, shouting at the "beast" to stay in jail. He is accused of masterminding an attack on his estranged wife and the murder of her 19-year-old son Conrad.ANCWL applauds braveryA group of ANC Women's League (ANCWL) members in black skirts, green tops and ANC caps sang "Asoze aphele amandla" (we will never give up our strength, we will never give up hope) loudly outside the court.They carried posters reading: "Kotzé and cronies must face the music", "Real men don't kill" and "No bail for Kotzé".Several men also stood watching as police guarded the area with the court gates still closed. A police Nyala was parked outside the court gate and police officers with riot gear were setting up.ANCWL spokesperson Troy Martens said: "The Women's League would like to applaud Bonnette for her courage and bravery throughout this ordeal. She has shown incredible courage and we applaud her."The ANCWL will be there every step of the way. We know the court processes aren't easy after an ordeal of this nature, but we want Bonnette to know she has the support of all South African women."Martens said no one deserved to go through what Bonnette had and her attackers' punishment should not be lenient.ChargesKotzé faces 17 charges including rape, murder, conspiracy to rape, kidnapping and assault with intent to cause grievous bodily harm. On January 3 he allegedly ordered his three workers at gunpoint to gang-rape Bonnette and mutilate her body with objects including nails, pliers, a grinder, and a screwdriver. He is further alleged to have shot her son Conrad Bonnette, who was lured to the house.National Prosecuting Authority spokesperson Mthunzi Mhaga said on Thursday there was a possibility of a bail application for some of the accused."And if so the State will be ready to proceed."Kotzé was arrested after being on the run for eight days. His three co-accused - Mmapuru Peter Mohlako, 34, Andries Paparona Sithole, 42, and Sello Frans Mphaka, 38 - were arrested within days of each other. They had apparently been hired to remove palm trees from the garden of Kotzé's rented home.Bonnette had reportedly taken a restraining order out on Kotzé when the relationship soured.- Are you there? Send us your eyewitness accounts and photos.
He had better not get bail, bastard!!!
Let his co-accused go free......! That neanderthal made them do it !!!!!!!!!
lol @ Tommy
dip him in chocolate and feed him to the women!
Dip him in petrol and give the women matches
am i just thumbs down because im pretty?
No Tommy..you get thumbs down because you're an idiot..!!
Dip Tommy in personal experience of rape, torture and murder and feed him jokes about it
i love how everyone spks their mind on the net.
Bryan enjoy ur name calling from the safety of ur office chair tough guy.
tom!retards like yourself always overcompensate their stupidity by steroid-ing their muscles and guess what shrinks the most...their pilikies and their pea-brains.
wow what a bunch of morons u all are.
dipping him in chocolate and feeding him alive is a play on the fact that the women outside the court would eat him alive, hence i suggest dipping him in chocolate to make him digestable.
before u comment on a post understand its meaning u little mob of petty mongers.
typical news24.com readers, S**t for brains!
Maybe Tommi wud like to have him dipped in chocolate!!!!!!!!!!!!
i think ud all like to dip me in chocolate, no doubt u all took a peak at my fb page.
.......and u know u did ;)
Gee all these guys comming out of the closet, And kinky as well
Tell 'em Tommy!!
yes i did look at your fb page
just to show my friends a retard
dude you must stop using that sh@t
Tommy you are a muppet, God love you.
AWEH DINO, somebody thats not afraid to stand up against the current.the rest of u are sheep. and leon alberts, i looked at ur profile too.
i must admit, that i was surprised to see such a childish comment come from somebody that looks like they've actually got a bit of experience.
but then i guess u had to lower urself to fit in with these chops didnt u?
tommy i just had to chirp
Stop opening up your ribs man if people don't get the choc story it's there problem
sorry won't call you names again
burn in hell you b@#tard!!
And not a sandwich was made that day.....
would you joke like that if it were your son and wife?
Would you die if you get a sense of humour?. The situation is not funny. But me trying to explain that to stuck up little redneck like yourself will be a waste of my time.
Maybe he should get bail. With the ANCWL waiting outside. That will be in the same league as what he has done
If he gets bail, I'll be waiting with an Acid bath and watch him melt away slowly.
Frankly the only suitable penalty would be hanging.
Hanging will be too easy for him. He should be made to suffer severely little by little. Drain the life out of him...tap,tap,tap....
This demonstrates how united all the peoples of SA are against crime in this land - especially rape, murder and child abuse - just a pity he can't get the death penalty!
If they released him outside that court - not sure they would find anything to bury ...
"Its times like these that we learn to live again" I hope that Ina Bonnette can do so. And its times like these for which we should have the death penalty!!
May he rot in hell. I hope the judge grants him bail and he suffers mob justice at the hands of his victim and her family and friends. Death is too good for this piece of rubbish, a good couple of weeks of torture before death would be good.
Just shows that crime does not discriminate, it can come in any form or shape...This is one battle that unites us all.
Very very true Sazi and so it should be.
How wonderful to see no racism in this show of solidarity. Gives South Africa hope.
Throw him and his cronies into an abandoned mine then seal it, making sure that they cannot get out, leave them there to starve to death, even possibly eat each other. Bastards all of them.
i would love to get this "sub human" kotze and his cronies in a room alone, with a whole hardware worth of tools to try out on them. It is, however, an inspiration to see woman of all walks of life standing together.
"There is hope"
I never thought I would say this, but hats off for the ANCWL and for Bonette.
The strength and bravery of this woman and the support she is getting from all sectors of South African society is an inspiration and shows that we can unite as one.
Viva Ina Viva ANCWL and every other woman and man who are supporting her.
Stay strong
Why on earth is Ina Bonnette refered to as the "alleged" victim?! There is no doubt that she IS the victim of this atrocity! Her attackers haven't been convicted yet, which makes THEM the alleged attackers. Or did I get it wrong, and there is some doubt that she was attacked and mutilated?
If we can get such unity in South Africa across racial lines then it gives me much hope for this country. I think that is the legacy Mandela left for us. Kudos to the ANCWL- now if the ANCYL can follow suite it would be great.
As a woman i do not know how to comment on this article. i am to much hurt.

This is my first posting to Chowhound and also my first visit to Montreal. For my birthday, my mother wants to show me the lovely city where she was first married over thirty years ago. Unfortunately, we arrive on my birthday which is a Sunday (June 4) and we leave Tuesday morning. As I've learned through this site that's a difficult time as most restaurants are closed.
Thanks to your expertise, I intend to visit Olive et Gourmando and the St. Viateur Bagel shop for breakfast/lunch.
For dinner on Sunday and Monday, I would appreciate your counsel on deciding between:
Pied de Cochon
Pierre du Calvet
Les Ramparts
We prefer food that is simple, not overly fussy or experimental, just solid ingredients done well and bursting with flavor. I'm worried that Pied de Cochon's food may be too rich for my mother - she's just not the type to suck on marrow bones or eat fois gras with everything!
I appreciate your advice and cannot wait to visit!

Saint Joseph's Hawks vs. Western Kentucky Hilltoppers - 11/27/14 College Basketball Pick, Odds, and Prediction
Western Kentucky Hilltoppers (1-3) at Saint Joseph's Hawks (3-2)
College Basketball: Thursday, November 27, 2014 at 6:30 pm (Madison Square Garden)
The Line: Saint Joseph's Hawks 0 -- Over/Under: See the Latest Odds
The Western Kentucky Hilltoppers take the floor with the St Joseph's Hawks in a NIT Season Tip-Off.
Western Kentucky left the Sun Belt as a contender and headed to the CUSA where the competition would be a bit stiffer. The conference schedule has yet to start and the competition has been too stiff with the Hilltoppers sitting at 1-3 after a 71-61 loss at Stony Brook. The offense has sputtered in three straight defeats with 38% shooting doing the damage. The Seawolves hit at just 40% but sank 13 more free throws to get the win. TJ Price led a trio of double digit scorers with 19 points with five pulls with a 3-4 effort on threes followed by a 12 point performance from George Fant. Chris Harrison-Docks and Aleksejs Rostov combined for 19 points and eight boards but Stony Brook hit enough free throws to win.
USA TODAY Sports
The St Joseph's Hawks have won consecutive contests to improve to 3-2 after a 74-70 overtime victory over LIU Brooklyn. The Hawks haven't played the most difficult schedule but the games have been close which is probably a factor of losing quite a bit of production from a year ago. This game was just about dead even in the boxscore with both squads sinking shots at 43% with the Hawks sinking a few more free throws to muster the win. DeAndre Bembry tossed in a game high 17 points while hauling in eleven rebounds and handing out five assists. Aaron Brown followed with 15 points and seven boards while Chris Wilson and James Demery scored 13 and eleven points with a combined 12 pulls.
Western Kentucky are 3-12 ATS in their last 15 games overall. For St. Joseph's the under is 13-3 in JOES last 16 Thu. games while the Hawks are 2-8 ATS in their last 10 Thu. games while the over is 6-2 in JOES last 8 overall. I have been surprised that a veteran Hilltoppers squad has struggled so much in the early going and they must right the ship before conference play begins or they are in big trouble. On the flip side I sort of expected some close games for the Hawks because of all the talent that departed. Right now I'll back the veteran laden Hilltoppers but I'm on the fence...

Its not intrusive either.
By default its @ 3am I think, and thats just once a month -- unless something critical can not wait & absolutely needs immediate attention.
This is why I just leave mine on Auto for Important only. Everything deemed critical is automatically installed when released.
Then I look through Recommended and optional and install the ones I want/need. (Although I usually just install everything)
I agree with everyone else as well. Unless the machine is never online, Always let Windows update.
The amount of space the updates take is minimal.
|My System Specs
|15 Jan 2011
I have a simple principle in this matter. I trust the makers of an OS to know what they are doing. Whether Windows, a Linux distro or Mac, I let them install any updates automatically when possible. In Windows for instance, most updates are because Microsoft has found a vulnerability or a bug and releases an update to patch that. I feel not updating would be irresponsible behavior from me, not taking care of my property, my computer.
Maybe not a good metaphor but anyway, think this: You install a well known, working AV application with todays virus and malware definitions. Should you then leave it as it was when installed, no longer update definitions, trusting that the old virus definitions can take care of the future viruses, too? Windows Update works according to this same principle; your Windows when installed was / is as safe and OK as was known to Microsoft when they released the version you installed. When new threats, vulnerabilities, bugs and so on are found, they are patched with an update.
Of course it's up to you to decide what to do with your computer. The above mentioned is only my personal opinion.
|My System Specs
|15 Jan 2011
Vista, Windows7, Mint Mate, Zorin, Windows 8
Kari, there are exceptions. I recently got an update for my GPU which screwed things up. Before I really realized it, I had no suitable restore point left and uninstalling did not help either. But fortunately I had my trusted images that bailed me out.
And then there were also cases where updates were immediately known as buggy - even by MS. I remember one from a couple of years ago in Vista that did not even have an uninstaller - too bad for those that had neither restore points nor images. And that are most of the users, I think.

While all updates may not be necessary, it might be more work and effort to read through them all and determine which ones you "really" need. That time and effort might not be worth the few KB's on the hard drive that are consumed. Plus, it's better to be safe than sorry in my opinion.
Or video card WHQL drivers that I have intentionally bypassed for valid reasons, or the 'Cumulative Media Centre' updates for a Media Centre I have long since disabled....
Or the Windows Live 2011 essentials that I also don't need or want et cetera.
The time and effort (ie a few seconds to read the description) is worth it.
As also mentioned, there are the occasional KB's that cause more harm than good.
Everyone has their own routine - the manual method has personally served me well.
|My System Specs
|15 Jan 2011
Windows 7 Ultimate x86
Bloating is not really an issue here since most security patches replace plus like already mentioned: hard drive space is cheap these days...MUCH cheaper than the time you will waste when your computer is overrun with nasties just because you didn't run those security upgrades
IMHO not a good idea
|My System Specs
|15 Jan 2011
True, we all have a different method of what is considered the best way to install updates, be it all automatic, all manual, or a mix of the 2.
But I think we can all agree on 1 major point.
Neglecting to update at all is a very bad idea. They are important.
Even if you do not Auto updates, I think at least one should at the very least set Windows Update to:
"Do not Download but check and inform me if updates are available."
Just my 2cents
|My System Specs
|15 Jan 2011
so for example, those updates like usb camera devices (1) that i do not have, or sd cards (1) over 32gb that will blah blah unless.... Or the 50+ language packs for ultimate users (1, 2) ...
Or video card whql (3) drivers that i have intentionally bypassed for valid reasons, or the 'cumulative media centre' updates for a media centre i have long since disabled....
Or the windows live 2011 (1) essentials that i also don't need or want et cetera.
The time and effort (ie a few seconds to read the description) is worth it.
As also mentioned, there are the occasional kb's that cause more harm than good.
Everyone has their own routine - the manual method has personally served me well.
(2) = Windows 7 is offered in 35 languages. After installation, users of Ultimate and Enterprise editions can download 34 language packs in addition to the language of original installation
(3) = If not optional, at least not critical update
IMO we were talking about (automatically) installing important, critical Windows updates. Optional updates are not installed even if automatic updates is enabled.
|My System Specs
|16 Jan 2011
Semantics Kari my friend, semantics
I always install the critical updates. - But I still do it manually. I personally prefer to to control my 'install/restart' rather than being 'reminded to'.
I was responding to another member of 'install all or be damned' in a subtle, yet obfuscated way.
Both of which no longer can have those descriptions applied

During his imminent visit to Asia, President Obama will stop in both Shanghai and Beijing. In the past, the benefits of the Sino-American economic relationship acted as a check against political disagreements. Unfortunately, this trip will see substantial and possibly growing economic tension.
The July meetings of the Strategic and Economic Dialogue between the U.S. and China focused on coordinating economic policy and initiating global rebalancing. Progress to these ends has been mixed, at best, and there is also increasing trade tension. The President will be hard-pressed to achieve any concrete economic cooperation.
Valuable Bilateral Coordination
Despite several daunting challenges, President Obama is, in an important sense, under less pressure than previous Presidents traveling to the PRC. There is now considerable communication between Washington and Beijing: Once rare, visits by cabinet secretaries and senior Chinese officials have become commonplace.
Recent communication between the two nations has been dominated by discussion of the policy response to the financial crisis and, increasingly, how to unwind that response. Frequent discussion helped facilitate similar policy steps by the two governments in late 2008 and early 2009. These steps, however, were harmful and dangerous in multiple respects,[1] making it vital that there be a prompt and well-implemented reversal. While there will be more disagreements on ending stimulus than there were on initiating it, established policy consultation will be useful in that regard.
Climate change--a priority for President Obama--is a more difficult element of bilateral coordination. High hopes in some quarters have been dashed by lack of progress. This is not due to lack of interest; there are extremely daunting economic obstacles blocking the control of greenhouse gas emissions by the PRC.[2] On the American side, government promotion of otherwise uncompetitive "green" energy has generated a series of problems.[3]
China Not Rebalancing Yet
It is broadly accepted that American under-saving and Chinese under-consumption contributed to the sharpness of the autumn 2008 economic downturn. The U.S. federal government budget deficit has since soared, cutting deeply into American national savings. Below the federal level, however, greater saving has essentially been forced on local governments and, most important, households.
There is as yet no matching improvement in Chinese economic structure. A central and unfortunate feature of the PRC's economy prior to the financial crisis was the transfer of wealth from households to firms through the financial system. Very low rates of return on bank savings robbed households of wealth, especially with few other options available for individuals and families and very low borrowing costs transferred that wealth to enterprises.[4]
The lauded PRC stimulus package intensified these transfers. The core of the stimulus was not the headline $585 billion in promised government spending but $1.1 trillion in new loans in the first three quarters of 2009, 75 percent more than all of 2008. To make the loans work, borrowing costs were extremely low. Such a high amount of lending in a poor climate would necessarily damage banks; their margins thus had to be shielded by paying savers almost nothing on deposits. The result: more money in the hands of firms to make things and less for households to buy things.
Another relevant crisis development is more tentative but even more disturbing: To this point, it has been universally assumed that more Chinese consumption meant more imports and, hence, smaller global imbalances. In the first three quarters of 2009, the PRC reported that retail sales rose 15 percent while imports fell 20 percent. There are several data issues but any hint that internal consumption could divorce from imports must be watched very closely. There are certainly powerful domestic business interests that will seek to secure for themselves nearly all of the benefits of stronger Chinese demand.
Contributing to weak import demand is the RMB's peg to the dollar. Beijing actually tightened the peg several months before Lehman Brothers collapsed. Its refusal to let the RMB move against the dollar during the crisis and the recent depreciation of the RMB against the euro and East Asian currencies made it notably more difficult for the global economy to adjust. This obstacle to adjustment is especially formidable, because China is the second-largest global trader and soon to become the second-largest economy. Happily, it seems that the PRC might be starting to consider a looser peg.[5]
U.S. Begins to Regress on Trade
There are bright spots in U.S.-PRC trade and investment relations. Congress has shown considerable restraint on trade given the extent and stubbornness of domestic unemployment. The Obama Administration seems to have a better understanding of important aspects of the Sino-American relationship than early in the year.[6] And Chinese investment in the U.S. continues even outside of Treasury bonds, to the tune of $5 billion committed, including $1.6 billion just last week in power company AES.[7]
That is far from the whole story, however. The Obama Administration, through the Department of Commerce and the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC), has taken a series of small, sector-specific trade actions aimed at the PRC. Tire tariffs gathered the most attention, but last week's duties on pipe were larger.[8]
These just put the fine point on a disturbing trend. In July 2008, Commerce and the ITC began to focus more narrowly on China. The ITC is the culmination point of the process. Since mid-2008, over 60 percent of ITC findings of possible trade harm have included Chinese goods, including no less than 36 such findings to date in 2009. Both the proportion and the absolute number are notable increases over earlier periods.[9]
This is absolutely the wrong way to shrink the trade imbalance and one that ultimately costs American consumers more in an already difficult time. Now that the genie is out of the bottle, it will be difficult to re-embrace open trade, especially with U.S. unemployment over 10 percent and looking to remain there for some time. If unemployment does stay that high, the restraint shown by Congress may not last, adding fuel to the Administration's small protectionist fire.
President Obama's first visit to China is valuable in itself. Much more value, however, would come from genuinely moving the PRC toward the rebalancing that has been discussed for the past six years. Both to make American arguments more credible and because it will benefit the U.S., the Obama Administration should offer to dramatically reduce deficit spending and halt creeping protectionism.
- Sino-American communication and coordination efforts are commendable and should be maintained;
- Climate change discussions are very unlikely to be fruitful and should be downgraded as a priority, if this has not already occurred;
- Discussions of an exit strategy from crisis stimulus are inadequate. The U.S. must push the PRC for a specific--even if long-term--restructuring plan where domestic consumption is no longer suppressed and market access is gradually improved;
- As part of this long-term restructuring plan, the U.S. should push for a much looser peg of the RMB to the dollar, moving toward an eventual free float of the RMB;
- The American federal government budget deficit should be cut quickly and aggressively, both to help the U.S. economy and to strengthen the dollar;
- The Administration should reconsider the policy directives behind Department of Commerce investigations that have triggered the rush of findings against China.
For decades, America's and China's limited understanding of each other was a serious threat to bilateral relations. Now mutual understanding is better, and the two countries are challenged to get their own houses in order while not using the other as an excuse to avoid difficult decisions.Derek Scissors, Ph.D., is Research Fellow in Asia Economic Policy in the Asian Studies Center at The Heritage Foundation.p>

The United States has promised support for China's campaign to hunt corrupt officials fleeing abroad, the official Xinhua news agency reported late Friday, after meetings between security officials from the world's two largest economies.
Talks this week between Chinese domestic security leaders Meng Jianzhu and Guo Shengkun, and U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson also touched on counter-terrorism, intellectual property rights, maritime law enforcement and cybersecurity issues, Xinhua said.
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security could not be immediately reached for comment. In an earlier statement on its website, the department said Johnson met with counterparts to discuss a variety of homeland security-related issues.
Guo said the two sides should seek cooperation in law-enforcement, Xinhua said, and that both sides agreed they would not provide refuge to fugitives.

Leitrim SHC final
Gortletteragh v Glencar/ Manorhamilton, Páirc Seán Mac Diarmada , 4.0
FOR the first time since 1998, St Mary's won't be Leitrim champions and, after ending their reign, Glencar will be hoping to win a first title to go with their football crown from last weekend, but Gortletteragh will be favourites.
Verdict: Gortletteragh.
Ulster SHC semi-final
Loughgiel Shamrocks v Kevin Lynch's, Casement Park, 3.30
A third game in a week for Kevin Lynch's who face an uphill battle to progress to the Ulster final, where Ballycran await the winners.
Verdict: Loughgiel Shamrocks
Carlow SHC final replay
(extra-time if necessary)
Mount Leinster Rangers v Naomh Eoin, Dr Cullen Park, 3.45
DWAIN Kavanagh's injury-time free rescued Naomh Eoin in the first match and Rangers will feel they missed a real chance. They shouldn't make the same mistake again.
Odds: Mount Leinster Rangers 8/15, Naomh Eoin 13/8, Draw 9/1
Verdict: Mount Leinster Rangers.
London SHC final
Robert Emmetts v St Gabriels, Ruislip, 3.0
THERE will be considerable Galway influence in this final, with 11 of the players fielded coming from the western seaboard. St Gabriel's came out on top two years ago, but Emmetts look stronger this time out.
Odds: Robert Emmetts 1/3, St Gabriels 5/2, Draw 9/1
Verdict: Robert Emmetts.
Laois SHC final
Clough/Ballacolla v Portlaoise, Portlaoise, 3.30
CLOUGH/Ballacolla are looking for a repeat of the 2009 final when they ended their long wait for the title against Portlaoise and that looks the likely outcome.
Odds: Clough/Ballacolla 4/11, Portlaoise 12/5, Draw 9/1
Verdict: Clough/Ballacolla.
Meath SHC final
Navan O'Mahonys v Kildalkey,
Navan, 3.30
HOT favourites Kildalkey are out for three-in- a-row against a Navan O'Mahonys team looking for their first title since 1986.
They might be written off in most quarters, but O'Mahonys showed steel to come from five points down to beat Kiltale in the semi-final and similar character might be needed tomorrow, even if Kildalkey look like they have too much.
Odds: Kildalkey 1/7, Navan O'Mahonys 9/2, Draw 12/1
Verdict: Kildalkey.
Sligo SHC final
Calry/St Joseph's v Tubbercurry, Markievicz Park, 4.0
THE old guard return to centre stage with Tubbercurry looking to end a seven-year wait for a title they used to dominate. Offaly man Declan Loughnane's experience will be key.
Verdict: Tubbercurry.
Wexford SHC final
Oulart The Ballagh v Rathnure,
Wexford Park, 3.30
champions Oulart are being hotly tipped to retain their crown as Rathnure's credentials are set to come seriously under scrutiny at Wexford Park tomorrow. Oulart have been targeting a return to the Leinster arena ever since losing to Kilkenny club O'Loughlin Gaels last season. Experience seems even between the teams, but fitness and skills are with the holders.
Odds: Oulart The Ballagh 1/7, Rathnure 5/1, Draw 11/1
Verdict: Oulart The Ballagh.
Kildare SFC final
Athy v Carbury, Newbridge, 3.30
These two teams meet in the county decider for the first time since 1946, with both hoping to end long title droughts. Athy collected their fifth and last crown in 1987, while Carbury last celebrated a county title in 1985. Carbury stunned the 2008 winners Celbridge with a comeback in their semi-final, while Athy saw off '09 champions St Laurence's to book their place in the final. Athy selector Ger Clancy played in that final success 24 years ago and knows that if they can do a solid marking job on Eoghan O'Flaherty, their young side could be the one to end the wait.
Odds: Athy 4/6, Carbury 6/4, Draw 7/1
Verdict: Athy.
Monaghan SFC final
Latton v Scotstown, Inniskeen, 3.30
THIS pair will get to know each other fairly well over the next while. After drawing in the league last Saturday, they meet in tomorrow's final showdown and will clash again in the league semi-finals next weekend. This one is undeniably the big one. Scotstown are looking to end an 18-year wait tomorrow but, having put paid to Clontibret's reign, 2008 winners Latton will fancy themselves to finish the job.
Odds: Latton 10/11, Scotstown 6/5, Draw 6/1
Verdict: Latton
Offaly SFC final
Clara v Edenderry, Tullamore, 3.30
HAVING hammered their old rivals Rhode in the semi-final, it's all about managing expectations in Clara this week as they face an unfancied Edenderry. Edenderry captain, 24-year-old Richie Dalton, is one of the team's older players and this one might just have come too soon against the 2009 champions.
Odds: Clara 4/11, Edenderry 11/4, Draw 7/1
Verdict: Clara.
Roscommon SFC final
St Brigid's v Elphin, Dr Hyde Park, 4.0
ALL-Ireland club finalists St Brigid's will feel that they have unfinished business this season and getting over Elphin is the first step on the road towards recapturing the heights of last season. Five points separated the teams last year and although they are missing four players, Brigid's spine remains rock solid, with Senan Kilbride a forward that most club sides would die for.
Odds: St Brigid's 1/8, Elphin 11/2, Draw 12/1
Verdict: St Brigid's

New pay deal or free-for-all, unions warn Government
Unions have warned the Government to open up fresh pay talks or face a free-for-all from public sector workers.
In the wake of the €50m Garda buy-off to stop an unprecedented strike, unions are now demanding a new deal to speed up pay rises.
Public Spending Minister Paschal Donohoe was bluntly told yesterday the Lansdowne Road Agreement is no longer sustainable following the Garda offer. And Social Welfare Minister Leo Varadkar admitted the "context has changed" after the Garda offer worth €3,600 each.
Secondary schools will be closed again today as the ASTI embark on their second strike.

'Castellan' is the third book in the Crusader Chronicles series by Peter Darman (Books 1 & 2 have previously been reviewed here). These books follow the lives of a group of Crusaders fighting in the obscure but historically accurate (I checked!) crusades in the Baltic States.
- Author:
- Peter Darman
Darman has come up trumps yet again with another tale of derring-do which moves swiftly along whilst being detailed enough to make the reader feel immersed in its medieval setting. As previously commented upon, Darman's heritage within Defence Intelligence shines through with his eye for detail, especially when describing the weapons, armour and methods of warfare.
The book is available from Amazon on Kindle for £2.34 (at the time of writing) and in paperback. It is perhaps indicative of Darman's rise to prominence in this genre that it is currently rated as the No 1 Amazon best seller on European Crusades.
This is, I think, the best of the three books to date although I would advise readers to read the other two in the series first. Although it could stand alone in its own right, much of the enjoyment comes in the development of the characters over the series of books and a new arrival to the series may find dipping straight in at Book 3 a little confusing!
Where this book really shines is its excellent narrative: it is fast moving and draws the reader with it. I read the book in just a couple of days. The characters have really started to mature in a literary sense without becoming pastiches of themselves; it feels like returning to old friends.
All in all, an excellent book that takes the series to new heights. I look forward to more of the same!

text: It seems that while there is virtually total unanimity among our pundits that no decent military option exists for the West to respond to the Russian invasion of Georgia, some others in the region are not so sure. The Ukrainians, for example, have a card to play in this game, since the Russian fleet is based in Sebastopol. And the Ukrainians realize that if Putin gets away with his putsch in Georgia, they may well be next. So they are telling the Russians, in essence, that Sebastopol can't be used for Russian military operations against Georgia. Have a look. One's mind runs rapidly toward "the sight of the gallows wonderfully concentrates the mind…"

Headlight Buying Guide
Headlights 101
Types of Headlights
Halogen Headlights
Xenon High-Intensity Discharge Headlights
LED Headlights
Brightness & Whiteness +
Generally speaking, the whiter and brighter the headlight, the better. Whiter lights can help you see more of the road in certain driving conditions, increasing your peripheral vision so you can see a wider area around you. Brightness, or "illumination", helps you see further in the distance, so you can be better prepared for what's down the road. These details make a big difference when you're heading out on long trips down dark and winding roads.
The Kelvin Scale +
Different driving conditions need different light, which is where the Kelvin scale comes in. A Kelvin isa unit used to measure the hue of a light source which can help you figure out which type of lighting you need. Lights measuring lower on the Kelvin scale have amber- and orange-like hues, which provide contrast and highlight objects in a way that makes them ideal for rainy, foggy or snowy conditions. If you spend a lot of time driving at night or on dark roads, look for lights in the middle or high end of the scale, such as white lights (3200K to 3850K) or lights that are bluer than sunlight (4200K). These types of light help amplify dark objects and let you see more of the road ahead.

I love the fact that there are product reviews, town reviews and a diverse grouping of editoral pieces. Layout is like Wired...packed with things to uncover. So, I am looking forward to a year of this and will come back in to let you know whether or not you convinced me to go to Africa or wherever. Can't believe this mag has escaped my literary landscape. But, I am on board now.

New UNESCO publication on interreligious dialogue
The UNESCO Moscow Office and the UNESCO Office in Beirut have implemented the joint project on conducting comparative studies in the field of intercultural and interreligious dialogue and preparing relevant electronic publication within the framework of the UNESCO Programme of Intercultural Dialogue Sector at the UNESCO Chairs. The project was implemented on the basis of the UNESCO Chairs functioning in Russia and Lebanon located at the St. Petersburg Branch of the Russian Institute for Cultural Research and St. Joseph University in Beirut.
The issue presents the results of a joint international research project with the aim of providing a systematic cross-cultural analysis of fundamental problems and actual perspectives of interfaith dialogue between Christianity and Islam, as seen from the perspectives of Russia and Lebanon.
The main aim of the project was to keep with the goals of UNESCO, which considers interfaith dialogue a flagship activity.
The e-book is published in English and Russian and includes an abstract in Arabic. It is available on the UNESCO website and is intended primarily for young people in Russia and the Middle East, as well as for teachers and researchers involved into interfaith dialogue as indispensable in enhancing intercultural understanding and rapprochement, social cohesion and peacemaking.

Les modèles non coopératifs d'offre de travail : théorie et évidence
The present paper examines the theory of non-cooperative models of labor supply. Firstly, we develop a general framework that contains the various labor supply models found in the literature as particular cases. Secondly, we derive the properties of testability and identifiability of these models. Thirdly, we present empirical tests and compare these models using a sample extracted from the PSID. Cet article s'intéresse aux modèles non coopératifs d'offre de travail. D'abord, nous développons un modèle d'offre de travail qui généralise la plupart des spécifications rencontrées dans la littérature.

It is very annoying when you go out in the park, expecting to enjoy a lovely, sunny day but you return home soaking wet because the weather caught you by surprise.

Claiming is simple, our hassle free online service only takes 5 minutes to complete, no win no fee* and no initial fee to pay.
Rating: 4.5 / 5 Stars ( TRUSTPILOT Reviews)
Our FAQ aims to answer any questions you may have about making a compensation claim against your airline. If you require any additional information, don't hesitate to give us a call on 0161 763 8282 or visit how to claim flight compensation page.
Flight Delays is a trading name of FDCO Ltd. We deal with a variety of flight compensation claims: delayed flights, cancelled flights, denied boarding and re-routed flight claims. If you think you have a legitimate claim, why not start your claim today and we'll do all the leg work for you.
Our team specialises in flight compensation claims, ensuring you of the very best service. We pride ourselves on our excellent customer service record. We will also keep in touch with regular updates on your claim.
Flight Delays normally act under a no win no fee contingency fee agreement which covers all our work up to but not including starting court proceedings. If your claim is unsuccessful, you won't have to pay us a penny* and you don't have to pay an initial fee to start your claim. If it proves necessary to issue legal proceedings and your claim has sufficient prospects of success, we will invite you to instruct our nominated solicitors assuming they are willing to take on your case.
If your claim is successful, you will have to pay our fee but the most we will charge for our services is 29% + £25* (plus VAT).
In order to make a claim against an airline, there are a few pieces of information that you will need to provide in order for us to act on your behalf. Flight Delays requires your booking information such as the date of the flight, airline used, flight number, length of the delay and the reason why the flight was delayed. Don't worry however if you haven't got everything to hand, we should be able to find it for you.
Yes, if you were flying on a British Airline, such as EasyJet or the flight in question was to or from an airport in England or Wales, it is likely that we can deal with your claim even if you do not live in the UK. We have an online portal for quick and efficient communications.
As a general rule, it is unlikely you will need to attend Court, this is because normally the key evidence is given by the airline. If you do need to give evidence and you live outside the UK, special arrangements can be made such as giving a written statement of your evidence, instead of attending Court.
This is governed by the law applicable to your claim. In England & Wales, this time limit is normally 6 years from the date of the flight you are complaining about. A child normally has until his or her 24th birthday to start a claim. However you should be aware that some airlines are trying to argue that under international law, the limit is only 2 years. Therefore we advise that you should not delay making your claim but if the 2 year defence is raised, we will argue this point on your behalf with the airline.
No, unfortunately a passenger who flew on a completely free ticket is not entitled to flight compensation. You should note that any flight compensation awarded is for the benefit of the passenger affected, not the person who paid for the booking.
The most common defence raised by airlines is that of 'Exceptional Circumstances'. It is quite common for the airline to argue that something like a technical problem with the plane or a crew member not being available to fly, is an "Exceptional Circumstance". However European Court rulings have narrowed down the scope of this defence, so the argument made on behalf of passengers is that the defence should only apply in a relatively few cases where the airline can show that the "Exceptional Circumstances" caused the delay, that those Exceptional Circumstances are not "inherent in the normal activity of an airline", and that the airline took reasonable measures to avoid the delay/ disruption. The burden of proving the Exceptional Circumstances Defence rests on the airline. This will turn on the facts of each individual flight. The 'European National Enforcement Bodies' has published a set of guidelines to help determine whether the Exceptional Circumstances Defence applies in any particular case but it is disputed whether the Guidelines accurately reflect the decisions of the European Court, and as such the Guidelines are not necessarily binding on a Court of law. There are other grey areas such as to the extent to which "Exceptional Circumstances" can be used as a defence to follow-on delays of later flights. If we think you have a valid claim with a good chance of success, we will argue your case strongly with the airline and should we not be able to obtain a voluntary settlement, where appropriate we may, if you are in agreement, refer your claim to our nominated solicitors so that legal proceedings can be brought against the airline.

Nebraska Cornhuskers
The Nebraska Cornhuskers (often abbreviated to Huskers) is the name given to the intercollegiate athletic teams of the University of Nebraska–Lincoln. The university is a member of the Big Ten Conference and the Cornhuskers compete in NCAA Division I, fielding 22 varsity teams in 15 sports. Early nicknames for the university's athletic teams included the "Hawkeyes" (which is now associated with the University of Iowa), the "Antelopes" (which the University of Nebraska at Kearney later adopted), the "Old Gold Knights", the "Bugeaters" and the "Mankilling Mastodons". The name Cornhuskers first appeared in the school newspaper as "We Have Met The Cornhuskers And They Are Ours" referring to a 20–18 upset victory over Iowa in 1893. The name would be used again, this time to refer to Nebraska by Charles "Cy" Sherman in The Nebraska State Journal during the 1899 season and would replace all other names by 1900.
The Cornhuskers have two official mascots, Herbie Husker and Lil' Red. The Cornhuskers participate in 21 sports sponsored by the Big Ten Conference. In addition the Huskers field varsity teams in two sports not sponsored by the Big Ten, namely rifle and bowling. The rifle team is a member of the single-sport Great America Rifle Conference, while the bowling team competes as an independent. Nebraska joined the Big Ten Conference in 2011. For over 100 years, the Cornhuskers participated in either the Big 12 Conference, or the Missouri Valley Intercollegiate Athletic Association, later known as the Big Eight Conference. The Nebraska Cornhuskers field both a male and female cross country team coached by David Harris. They currently run on a course through Pioneer's Park in Lincoln. The men's team started in 1938 and the women's team started in 1975 as a result of title IX. The Nebraska Cornhuskers have never won a Big 12 conference championship. The only men's conference championship was in 1940 Big Six meet. The women have won the conference championship 5 times.
