Economic growth should begin to firm later in 2013 and continue to improve beyond that, Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond President Jeffrey Lacker said in prepared remarks Friday.
While the turmoil in Europe currently poses a risk to stronger U.S. growth next year, that risk should recede "as leaders work through the adjustments necessary for creating a new fiscal regime," Mr. Lacker said in a speech at the University of Virginia.
The economy is currently on a "relatively sluggish path of recovery," the Richmond Fed chief said. He noted that unemployment had recently dropped below 8% to reach 7.8% in the most recent government report, but that the pace of the jobless rate's decline had been "disappointingly slow."
The economic recovery is still being hampered by cautious consumers, wary of spending after the recession and a housing market still coping with a large overhang of inventory, he said.
"This sector has begun to show some encouraging signs, with home prices and construction improving this year," he said but noted that housing investment "is still quite low relative to historical norms."
Mr. Lacker also expressed concern that partisan gridlock in Congress is also contributing to the slow pace of growth. If a slew of tax increases and spending cuts all go into effect as scheduled at the start of 2013, that would "likely cause the economy to contract and move back into a recession," he said.
The Richmond Fed chief, who has dissented at all six of the Fed's policy meetings this year, said he did support the central bank's decision to keep short-term interest rates near zero right now "since our economy is growing at only a relatively modest pace." In this type of environment, an easy-money policy is needed to keep inflation from falling below the Fed's 2% goal, he said.
But he explained he didn't agree with the Fed's statement that it expects to keep short-term rates very low until at least mid-2015 and beyond when the economy begins to strengthen.
That's an "imperfect way to communicate about future policy," Mr. Lacker said, suggesting it could be misinterpreted by people who think the Fed would let inflation rise above 2%. Mr. Lacker said he would oppose that.

"He loved a wench well; and one time getting one of the Maids of Honour up against a tree in a wood ( `twas his first lady) who seemed at first boarding to be something fearful of her honour, and modest, she cried, ` Sweet Sir Walter, what do you me ask? Will you undo me? Nay, sweet Sir Walter! Sweet Sir Walter! Sir Walter!´ At last, as the danger and the pleasure at the same time grew higher, she cried in the ecstasy, `Swisser Swatter, Swisser Swatter!´ She proved with child, and I doubt not but this hero took care of them both, as also the product was more than an ordinary mortal." (John Aubrey, Brief Lives)
A portrait mistaken for Sir Walter Raleigh for more than 300 years, now declared ( – with 90% certainty, according to leading authorities like Professor Stanley Wells – ) to be actually the only portrait of William Shakespeare painted during his lifetime.

Vancouver trans beauty queen Jenna Talackova to star in reality TV series
Please see Jenna Talackova reality show rejected by Shaw Media
Vancouver beauty queen Jenna Talackova may not have won the title of Miss Universe Canada, but she won a civil-rights victory for trans people. And she'll continue to contribute to the representation of trans people in the public eye this fall.
According to news reports, Shaw Media announced on May 30 that it has picked up a reality TV show featuring Talackova.
Senior vice-president of content Barbara Williams said that the show is being picked up for the Lifetime channel (which is set to launch in Canada in September).
Talackova garnered international headlines when Miss Canada Universe officials disqualified her from the pageant in March when organizers identified her as a trans person.
After much controversy and widespread attention, including a petition and a press conference threatening legal action, the New York–based Miss Universe organization, headed by Donald Trump, eventually reinstated Talackova.
She made history by becoming the first trans person to compete for the crown, against 61 other women at the pageant in Toronto, and she finished in the top 12.
She did win the Miss Congeniality award in a tie with three other contestants. A fellow Vancouverite, Sahar Biniaz, won the title on May 19.

TIMES are good for Polar Service Centers, a division of Polar Corporation. The cargo tank maintenance and repair specialist came off a very strong year in 2011, and 2012 looks every bit as good or better.
Management gives credit for the strong performance to several critical factors: A strengthening economy kept tank fleets—especially those serving oil and gas exploration and production operations—running hard; Polar has worked hard to expand the service center network; a broad parts offering is available; and management is aggressively developing of new products and services…..Download PDF

Penelope Cruz Has Dinner with Harvey Weinstein in London Wearing Chloe's Mini Star Print Top
Celebrity Style: Penelope Cruz
Penelope Cruz had dinner with Harvey Weinstein in London, and while the studio head wore a suit, the actress kept it casual in jeans and no makeup. For the intimate occasion, Pene wore Chloe's mini star print blouse. To accessorize, she threw on small silver hoop earrings, a brown leather bag, and platform wedges. A modern take on '70s-inspired pieces — I like.

HA! I just got matched to Penelope Cruz by some website called CelebClone.Com. Has anybody else tried it? Pretty wild. Check it out if you want to have celebritied exposed as your clone!"

Hi all
Been looking around for a couple of days now and can't seem to find any hard info on this. Basically for a couple of weeks now I haven't been able to join in any bf3 online games. I go to join any type of game, it says "joining server" for about 20seconds and then gives me a message:
"Failed to join the game. Please check your network connection and try again"
Now I did have some issues with my network which I have fixed (it was crashing my whole router when trying to download updates for games" but I believe to have fixed that. I am online, I can do everything like play other games online, psn store etc just not join a bf3 game!!
Anyone else having this issue or know a fix please?
on 31-01-2012 02:30 PM
EA games can be slippery when it comes to connecting.
It's likely a port triggering issue, when you run a PS3 connection test is UPNP available? if you still struggle despite UPNP availability you could try manually opening the required BF3 ports or placing your PS3 in a DMZ in your router (opening all ports essentially)
on 31-01-2012 02:40 PM
I've tried all those tricks and none of them made a difference. It's weird because I got into a game the other night after fixing my router with a firmware update. Then the next day it was back to how it was not letting me play. So I tried DMZ and UPnP, both didn't make a difference. It's really odd how its just bf3 though =/
on 31-01-2012 02:48 PM
After applying the FW update to the router did you reset the device?
Not doing so can sometimes mean the update is reset after a while, or at least it used to.

on 31-01-2012 04:02 PM
on 01-02-2012 11:16 PM
Cheers everyone, its fixed...for now. I did reset the router on updating the firmware but just to be sure I switched off the internet modem and router for the night and it seems to have solved it
on 07-02-2012 08:25 PM
I got battlefield not long ago and first day all it did was tell me that but then the next it works fine ..... Still its better then fifa`s server
on 10-04-2013 08:18 PM
I've been having the same issue I don't know how to fix it loll overtime I go to the multiplexer it would tell me server error try again later but I do try it and it wont work anyone know what to do???

Islam |
Islam portal |
The Grand Mufti (Arabic: مفتي عام muftī ʿām , "general expounder" or كبير المفتين kabīr al-muftīn , "the great of expounders") is the highest official of religious law in a Sunni or Ibadi Muslim country. The Grand Mufti issues legal opinions and edicts, fatāwā, on interpretations of Islamic law for private clients or to assist judges in deciding cases. The collected opinions of the Grand Mufti serve as a valuable source of information on the practical application of Islamic law as opposed to its abstract formulation. The Grand Mufti's fatāwā (plural of "fatwā") are not binding precedents in areas of civil laws regulating marriage, divorce, and inheritance. In criminal courts, the Grand Mufti's recommendations are generally not binding either.
Muftis are Muslim religious scholars who issue influential legal opinions (fatwas) interpreting Sharia (Islamic law).[1] The Ottoman Empire began the practice of giving official recognition and status to a single mufti, above all others, as the Grand Mufti.[2] The Grand Mufti of Istanbul had, since the late 16th century, come to be regarded as the head of the religious establishment.[3] He was thus not only pre-eminent but bureaucratically responsible for the body of regious-legal scholars and gave legal rulings on important state policies such as the dethronement of rulers.[3] This practice was subsequently borrowed and adapted by Egypt from the mid-19th century.[2] From there, the concept spread to other Muslim states, so that today there are approximately 16 countries with sizeable Muslim populations which have a Grand Mufti.[4] The relationship between the Grand Mufti of any given state and the state's rulers can vary considerably, both by region and by historical era.
State appointed Grand Muftis[edit]
- In the Ottoman Caliphate, the Grand Mufti was Haji Samatar, and the Grand Mufti of Constantinople was the highest of these.
- Throughout the era of British colonialism, the British retained the institution of Grand Mufti in some Muslim areas under their control and accorded the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem the highest political stature in Palestine.
- During World War I (1914–1918), there were two competing Grand Muftis of Jerusalem, one endorsed by the British and one by the Ottoman Empire.
- When Palestine was under British rule, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem was a position appointed by the British Mandate authorities.
- In the Palestinian National Authority, the administrative organization established to govern parts of the West Bank and Gaza Strip, the Grand Mufti is appointed by the president.
- The Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia is appointed by the King.
Nations with elected Grand Muftis[edit]
- In countries such as Australia where the office of Grand Mufti receives no official seal of government imprimatur, clerics can be elected to the position by one segment of the Islamic community in that country and yet not be recognised by other Muslim communities in that country.[5]
Nations with collective Grand Muftis[edit]
- Indonesia has a system of collective mufti, in which the position of Grand Mufti is held by the Indonesian Ulama Council (Majelis Ulama Indonesia). This assembly can make fatāwā.
- Malaysia also has a unique system of collective mufti. Nine of the fourteen Malaysian states have their own constitutional monarchy; eight are ruled by sultans (the title for the rulers of Kelantan, Kedah, Terengganu, Negeri Sembilan, Pahang, Selangor, Perak and Johore) and one by a raja (the title for the ruler of Perlis). These nine monarchs have authority over religious matters within their own states: therefore, each of these nine states have their own mufti who usually controls the Islamic Council or Islamic Department of the state. At the national level, a National Council of Fatwa (Majlis Fatwa Kebangsaan) has been formed under the Department of Islamic Advancement of Malaysia (Jabatan Kemajuan Islam Malaysia or JAKIM). JAKIM appoints five Muftis for the five states which don't have monarchs. The muftis of the nine monarchical states, together with the five officials appointed by JAKIM in the National Council of Fatwā, collectively issue fatāwā at the national level.
- Sri Lanka has system of collective ulama from different traditions of Islam. The All Ceylon Jamiyyathul Ulama has a President who oversees the decisions but doesn't necessarity have the powers to overturn any decisions made by rest of the ulama. The concept is similar to a Democratic Coalition system. The current President is Ash-Sheikh Mufti M.I.M. Rizwe.
Prominent Grand Muftis[edit]
- Abd al-Aziz ibn Baz (1910-1999), Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia from 1992 to 1999
- During World War I (1914–1918), the Ottoman Empire claimed that As'ad Shuqeiri was the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem
- Ekrima Sa'id Sabri, Grand Mufti of Jerusalem from October 1994 to July 2006

- Australian ex-Grand Mufti, Taj El-Din Hilaly

Tier 4 Regional League round-up
TIER 4 REGIONAL ROUND UP – 9th June - compiled by Phil Caplan @scratchingshed2
SCOTLAND @ScotRugbyLeague
EASTERHOUSE PANTHERS, aided by a hat trick from Hull under 20s half back Chad McGlame, won the first ever Glasgow derby 78-14 at home to VICTORIA KNIGHTS. Army Academy winger Indio Singh scored a try and five goals and kicked intelligently throughout, Panthers building a 44-6 half time lead and posting 14 tries in all. Centre Lepani Sorro, skipper Steven McCarter – who also landed five conversions, Nathan Delgado and Ross McConniville all claimed doubles, Garetth Johns and Boris Boum their other try scorers, Sorro kicking their 11th goal. For the Knights, Ian Brown claimed two tries and Grant Seymour their other, Scott Shankie their goal scorer.
AYRESHIRE STORM were unable to capitalise on a bright start as they fell to 36-26 defeat to ABERDEEN WARRIORS at Westdyke. Well taken tries by Danyl Davies – his 16th of the campaign – and Gordon Powrie, either side of an unconverted Grant Walker score, put the visitors 10-4 in front after 22 minutes but the game gradually slipped away from them and tries from Richard Roach, Douglas Sharp and Carwyn Walker put the Warriors 18-10 up at the break. Storm hit back at the start of the second half through David Crangle but tow Walker touchdowns put Aberdeen back in the ascendancy. Davies and Powrie reduced the deficit to four points to set up a thrilling climax with four minutes to go but a Jordan Robertson try between the posts sealed the win.
FIFE LIONS were unable to match the pace and power of EDINBURGH EAGLES who were convincing 80-12 winners at Harley Street. Captain Ross Grady opened the scoring, for the Eagles Cockburn, Robertson (2), Vernon, Rowlands (2), Steele, Murray, Barber (2), Cowan, Walker and Parkinson their other try scorers and Borthwick, Steele and Jarvis the standouts.
WEST OF ENGLAND @SouthWestRL
SWINDON ST GEORGE moved up into third place in the table level with leaders Bristol Sonics A after a handsome 52-22 win over GLOUCESTERSHIRE WARRIORS A at Greenbridge Road. That was thanks to a hat-trick from Mike Thompson and a try and six goals from James Slatter. St George had powered into a 34-6 halftime lead with two tries from Eddie Curtis and one each from Terry Martin, Jacob Rakubta, Paul Wimott and Thompson's first of the day with the Warriors replying with a converted try. The Warriors opened the second period well and pulled a try back but Thompson scored twice to push the home side further ahead. Between these scores, the Warriors crossed and scored another after Rukubta had scored his second of the day. Slatter completed the scoring by bringing up the half century with a solo try that went unconverted. Swindon are joined on four points by SOMERSET VIKINGS who needed a late try to beat OXFORD CAVALIERS 39-36 in a thriller at North Hinksey. The Cavaliers' first home game of the season ended with the Somerset Vikings just getting the points with a late try.
NORTH WEST @rugbyleaguenw
In Division One, a terrific second half fight back from HINDLEY maintained their fine campaign so far with a 20-16 triumph over THATTO HEATH CRUSADERS. Winger Adam Cropper got the visiting Crusaders off to a great start on two minutes, Chris Ford adding the extras. Tom Unsworth replied but Heath scored again, this time through Shaun Quinn; Ford converting. Michael Arrowsmith grabbed an unconverted try for Hindley, but once again they were undone as Quinn claimed his second try on 36 minutes to give the Crusaders a 16-8 lead at half time. However, the second half belonged to Hindley. Paul Hersnip went over seven minutes after the restart, with Stephen Sutcliffe converting and, on 65 minutes, Sutcliffe then converted his own try, which was a fantastic individual effort.
LEIGH EAST secured a fine 50-10 victory at home to ROCHDALE COBRAS. The game didn't start perfectly for the hosts, though, as it was Rochdale that took the lead on seven minutes with a try from hooker Daniel Blandford. However, it didn't take long for Leigh to find their rhythm with four tries in the opening period from Nicky Ratcliffe, Thomas Gaughan, Daniel Kilshaw and Adam Holland and three conversions by Ryan Peters, which gave them a 22-4 lead at the break. In the first set of the second half, some great Easts play resulted in Adam Cooper to the posts and they further imposed their authority with tries from Holland, Cooper and Michael Redford, with six more points from the boot of Peters. The Cobras did show some fight with a four pointer from Seta Kolinisau, converted by Dominic Kolshaw, and the home side had the final say with Ryan Hughes scoring with seven minutes to go.
In Division Four, WIGAN ST CUTHBERTS came away from the NEWTON STORM with a point thanks to a hard fought 20-20 draw. The visitors started the game well, winger Caine Thompson scoring the opening try on two minutes. However, that was as good as it got for them in the opening 40 minutes, as the Storm took control of the game with three converted tries from Carl Traynor and a Mike Rowe double, Matt Stafford adding the extras, to give Newton a solid 18-4 advantage at half time. Stafford added a penalty a minute into the second half, and those two points were to prove crucial as St Cuth's produced a great second half performance to secure a share of the spoils. Mike Scrivens crossed on 48 minutes with centre Danny Clayton following suit just eight minutes later; Declan Riley converting the latter. And the comeback was complete six minutes from time as second rower Martin Pennington went in, Riley goaling to level.
LONDON & SOUTH EAST @LondonRL
HAMMERSMITH HILLS HOISTS and LONDON SKOLARS A remain locked at the top of the Southern Premier league after the latest round of matches. The Hoists had a comfortable win over bottom club West London Sharks 22-10, while the Skolars had an even bigger victory at home to Eastern Rhinos, the north London club running our 64-16 winners.
It was a much closer affair in the division's other game with ELMBRIDGE EAGLES beating SOUTH LONDON STORM 36-28 in a 12-try extravaganza. The Eagles scored seven to their opponents five with each landing four goals.
In the South East Regional League PORTSMOUTH NAVY SEAHAWKS remain on top after a convincing 44-18 home win over bottom club MEDWAY DRAGONS. Second placed GUILDFORD GIANTS kept up the pressure on the Seahawks following their 42-26 victory over SUSSEX MERLINS. The shock result of the day came at SOUTHAMPTON where the SPITFIRES ruined GREENWICH ADMIRALS' chances of going top of the table with a thumping 42-12 win.
In the Entry League, HAMMERSMITH HILLS HOISTS A beat the splendidly-named MUDCHUTE UNCLES from London's East End 30-16.
WALES @WalesRugbyL
VALLEY COUGARS worked hard to overturn a 16 point second half deficit using their experience to finally over power an inexperienced TITANS side 34-26. The first half was fairly even, Cougars scoring first through John Sanigar, the extras added by Paul Emmanuelli before Tom James replied for Titans, Bailey adding the goal. Titans increased their lead with a try by experienced Adam Davies who kicked the conversion himself. Daryl Carter hit back with a try for Cougars, Emmanuelli adding the goal to leave matters all square at the break. For a while the second half was all Titans as Whittington, Rogers and James all crossed for tries but only one goal was added in the blustery conditions. As injuries to key players took its toll on the Titans the Cougars took control. Matthew Powell crossed for a try, goaled by Emmanuelli, before Steve Williams' cross field kick was caught by Ben Thomas. Sanigar barged through from close range before James Allen crossed for a try both goaled by Emmanuelli as a relieved Cougars snatched victory from the jaws of defeat.
BONYMAEN BRONCOS were convincing 84-14 victors over CARDIFF DEMONS. Broncos did not have to wait long for their first try with the game only four minutes old when player/coach Richard Brooks crashed over his brother Ian missing the conversion. It was very much one way traffic for the next 20 minutes with the Demons struggling to get any possession. Tries followed from Nick Clancy, a Jonathan Jones hat trick, James Bija, and Jason Howells with a brace, all converted by Ian Brooks.
Demons scored two tries before half time to make it 44-10. The second half was very much the same, Robert Jones leading the way with a display of power and pace getting him a second half hat-trick. Further tries came from Bija, Trystan Heardman, Clancy and Richard Williams with Ian Brooks and Stuart Allen sharing the kicking between them.
In the first ever game between the two sides BRIDGEND BLUE BULLS received a mighty scare at Penybanc RFC before finally beating DYFFRYN DEVILS 44-26, with Dan Smith claiming a hat trick and teenage full-back Huw Rosser scoring 26 points. The reigning Champions were without a number of key players and were disjointed at the start, and the Devils took full advantage with Owen Williams posting the opening try in the second minute with Ceri Rees converting. Bridgend were back on level terms straight away when Dan Smith raced over for his first and Rosser converted. Rosser then scored himself after gathering the ball from a Devils kick and racing 90 metres weaving past a number of would-be tacklers for a great solo score, and he converted himself for a 12-6 lead. Devils hit back via Ceri Rees but then Lee Smith scored the Bulls third, although it came at a cost with the centre injuring his leg while scoring, Rosser again added the extra two. The Bulls should have claimed a fourth moments later after a great break from Tylon Mafi, but he was brought down just short and then penalised for illegally playing the ball and the Devils broke away and Steffan Jones scored to cut the deficit to just four points at half time. Two tries for Dan Smith in the opening five minutes of the second half gave the second rower his treble with Rosser adding both kicks then great play from Nathan Hawkins and Lee Harben-Jones ended in a try for Mikey Rowe. Good play from Williams then saw Dafydd Pritchard score the Devils fourth with Rees again adding the extras and Rosser claimed his second for Bridgend after a Josh Miles run, Rosser converting from the touchline.Despite being 20 points down the Devils never gave up and were rewarded with a fifth score with Gareth Rees seizing on a mistake by Chris McGrath but the final say went to Bulls forward Ken Dowding who capped off a good performance with the final touchdown.
PRESTATYN & RHYL PANTHERS went back to the top of the league after an emphatic 52-16 win at Dee Valley Dragons in Corwen. The Panthers got off to a slow start losing possession early in the tackle count resulting in Chris Davis of Dee Valley going over for an unconverted try. Panthers hit straight back through George Cliff out wide on the right. Prestatyn went over again after great work from Callum Bennett to put Mike Hall over by the posts. Another mistake from the Panthers resulted in a try for the Dragons from Huw Parry which was converted by Dylan Roberts to make it 10-10 after 25 minutes. Mike Bagnall was sin binned for a professional foul, Louis Collinge crossing out wide for the Panthers, converted by Bennett. On the half time whistle captain Ben Syme went through a gap to score a wonderful individual try along with a Bennett conversion to make it 20-10. Panthers stepped up a gear in the second half and it resulted in Dan Jones and Paul Sellwood scoring tries after great work from half back duo Syme and Bennett, Bennett converted both to make it 32-10. The try of the game came from Kyle Robinson and Cal Morris went in to extend the lead. Hall grabbed his second after a break from Bennett which was closely followed by his third with another blistering run. Dragons hit back late on with a consolation try through Steffan Parry with the conversion added by Roberts.
MIDLANDS @MidsRugbyLeague
GLOUCESTERSHIRE WARRIORS travelled to LEICESTER STORM with a depleted squad and put up a brave fight, especially in the second half, but were outclassed. Ten tries all converted by Tom Knott saw the Storm maintain their unbeaten record and stay on course for a place in the Grand Final. Warriors drafted in Joel James and Kieran Cox from the All Golds U18 squad and both performed well in difficult circumstances. Warriors were on the back foot from the kickoff and two tries in the first six minutes got the Storm off to a perfect start. The Warriors held out as the Storm battered them running down the appreciable slope but two more tries in the 19th and 24th minutes had the home side scoring at a point a minute. Two more converted tries followed before Ash Lewis dummied over from close to the line to get the Warriors on the board after a rare sortie into the Storm 20. His conversion was the last kick of the half but the Warriors took the momentum into the second period and piled pressure on the Storm line. Leicester lifted the siege and scored again ten minutes into the second period to make the score 42-6. The Storm always had the edge but in their over-eagerness to score, conceded possession and penalties allowing the Warriors to exert pressure themselves. The visitors got their reward as Mike Ashford bounced off a Storm defender to score. Two tries in the final few minutes sealed a 60-10 win for the Storm but the Warriors were camped on their line at the end.
YORKSHIRE @YorkshireRL
A second half super-show from WEST BRADFORD BARBARIANS saw them overcome gallant LEEDS AKKIES, 44-14 at home. Ash Hutchinson opened the scoring for the Barbarians in the fourth minute, Steve Richardson following him over soon after, Nathan Marshall converting both tries. Akkies hit back through centre James Myerscough and although Elliott Collins grabbed the try of the match and Callum Wilcock potted a penalty for Wests, Ian McGregor went in for the Akkies on the stroke of half time, Alex Clarke goaling to make it 20-10 at the break. Three tries in ten minutes at the start of the second half – to hooker Scott Smith, Marshall and Dean Smith – saw the Barbarians pull away, winger Liam Jackson claiming their eighth touchdown, Clarke grabbing a consolation try for the Akkies five minutes from time.
A length of the field Max Miller score in the 62nd minute was the highlight of MILFORD MARLINS' 42-18 triumph over HUNSLET WARRIORS at Becketts Park. Marlins ran in eight tries, scrum half Nathan Currie leading the way with two and seven goals for a 22 point haul. The visitors posted the first points through winger James Dawson but Currie then dominated proceedings with his brace sandwiched by a Joey French effort for the hosts. Joel Henry hit back for the visitors but Tom Barnes' converted effort made it 24-8 at the interval. Warriors began the second half on the front foot, second rower Mathew Rymer crossing but Miller and a seven minute double to Dan Bowker re-established Milford's supremacy. Danny Morgan scored a late consolation for the visitors, Ryan Clarke goaling.
FRYSTON WARRIORS preserved their unbeaten start to the campaign with a hard fought 34-20 victory at SKIRLAUGH BULLS, in a game were the lead changed hands six times before an impressive last quarter saw the visitors home. Bulls hooker Joe Hall scooted over after seven minutes, Jason Bell adding the extras and the on the quarter hour mark impressive second rower Matty Bower gathered a kick through from Rob Blakebrough to make it 10-0. Warriors roared back with tries to full back Jimmy Clarkson and their star man loose forward Jack Lee, both converted by stand off Andy Speak as Skirlaugh prop Jack Gay was sin binned for dissent. On the half hour mark, Bower had a try ruled out for a forward pass but the Bulls went into the interval with the lead when winger Steve Pidd squeezed in at the corner from a superb Lee Hall pass. Fryston re-gained the lead when second rower Steve Scott powered over seven minutes into the second period, which Speak converted, but the visitors had hooker Adam Chapple dismissed for punching and straight away the Bulls scored through Blakeborough, which Bell converted to make it 20-18 in a see-saw encounter. On the hour Bulls substitute Simon Kilby was red carded for alleged dissent and Fryston took advantage to score through centre Adam Rothwell with Speak again on target with the conversion. Two minutes later, Warriors scored again to open a ten point cushion when Scott went over for his second try and Speak kicked his fifth goal. The last word went to Warriors prop Adam Whittingham who made the points safe in the last minute with the final touchdown.
In a thriller at YORK ACORN, the hosts hung on to defeat HOLDERNESS VIKINGS 24-20. Acorn's points came from Karl Harton, Carl Loft, Adam Sellars and Joe Burns with four goals from Stephen Waldron. For the Vikings, Ian Fletcher Scott Harrison with a brace and Tom Grassby crossed, Grassby landing two conversions. Loft took the home man of the match award and, for the visitors, scrum half Grassby impressed throughout.

While the "world" shops, we as Christians wait during the season of Advent. We try, hard as it is, to focus on the great gift we have been given in the person of Jesus, and what that means for us now, and in the world to come. That's hard work, when the world is singing Christmas songs (we have some really beautiful songs too, that talk about our yearning for the birth of the Christ - come sing them with us!) and being encouraged to consume.
Come and spend a bit of time each week being quiet, singing songs and hearing the lessons that tell of the coming of the Christ. Tuesdays at 8 a.m., Wednesdays at 12:05 p.m. (no singing) and Sundays at 10 a.m. It's a different way to "get ready" for Christmas!

But for those who like to know more let's take a look at what's causing the errors. The root of these problems lies in the registry which is central to every Windows operating system, keeping a record of all your hardware and software settings, all user settings and of course the operating system itself.
The problem is that as you work, the registry is constantly being updated and amended, accumulating outdated and invalid entries – just like any other database. The more invalid and outdated entries there are, the more time Windows needs to find the correct ones.
As a result your system response becomes slow, crashes are more frequent and pretty soon you could be facing an expensive trip to the tech store.
But you can save yourself all that time and aggravation and a lot of money with simple-to-use "registry cleaner" software which you can download in just minutes! Typically you will be offered a quick free download of the software package which will rapidly scan your PC and identify a list of registry and other faults which need fixing.
Now you could try fixing these faults yourself but i definitely wouldn't recommend that. Some of these are registry entries are crucial and your computer won't even boot without them so it's the easiest way to wreck your PC in a big way. Instead you'll pay a small fee to register the software which will then fix all the faults in a matter of seconds!
Peace of mind for just a few dollars. It's a no brainer!

Musk Ox Musk Ox self-released
Nathanaël Larochette records under the alias Musk Ox. His debut under the name is four, long, slow pieces of what he calls "neofolk". It's a name as good as any for these songs.
"Jardin un bout du monde" features stunningly played guitar and the chirp of crickets. Larochette sings a bit in a mournful tone that fits in well. "Entre la terre et le ciel" is the longest piece here and one that really lets Larochette show his mastery of the form. The sound of rain is woven into the languid song and allows for a naturalistic feel. He shows much promise on this album and his future works should be something worth hearing. He could rival a lot of his contemporaries in the genre as it is.

SEC. 57-67-17. Powers and duties of public agencies and political subdivisions.
For the purpose of aiding in the planning, design, undertaking and carrying out of the project or any facility related to the project, or any educational, cultural, housing or recreational facility or enhancement offered to secure the siting of the project in the state, any public agency or political subdivision of any kind is authorized and empowered upon such terms, with or without consideration, as it may determine: (a) to enter into agreements, which may extend over any period, with the authority respecting action to be taken by such public agency or political subdivision with respect to the acquisition, planning, construction, improvement, operation, maintenance or funding of the project or any such facility or enhancement, including without limitation (i) the appropriation or payment of funds to the authority or to a trustee in amounts which shall be sufficient to enable the authority to defray any designated portion or percentage of the expenses of administering, planning, designing, constructing, acquiring, improving, operating, and maintaining the project or any such facility or enhancement, (ii) the appropriation or payment of funds to the authority or to a trustee to pay interest and principal (whether at maturity or upon sinking fund redemption) on bonds of the authority issued pursuant to this chapter and to fund reserves for debt service, for operation and maintenance and for renewals and replacements, and to fulfill requirements of any covenant with respect to debt service contained in any resolution, trust indenture or other security agreement relating to the bonds of the authority issued pursuant to this chapter and (iii) the furnishing of other assistance in connection with the project or any such facility or enhancement; (b) to dedicate, sell, donate, convey or lease any property or interest in property to the authority or grant easements, licenses or other rights or privileges therein to the authority; (c) to incur the entire expense of any public improvements made or to be made by such public agency or political subdivision in exercising the powers granted in this section; (d) to do any and all things necessary to aid or cooperate in the planning or carrying out of the project or any such facility or enhancement; (e) to lend, grant or contribute funds to the authority; (f) to cause public buildings and public facilities, including parks, playgrounds, recreational areas, community meeting facilities, water, sewer or drainage facilities, or any other works which it is otherwise empowered to undertake, to be furnished to or with respect to the project or any such facility or enhancement; (g) to furnish, dedicate, close, vacate, pave, install, upgrade or improve highways, streets, roads, sidewalks, airports, railroads, ports or other public facilities; (h) to plan or replan, zone or rezone any parcel of land within the public agency or political subdivision or make exceptions from land use, building and zoning regulations; and (i) to cause administrative and other services to be furnished to the authority, including services pertaining to the acquisition of real property and the furnishing of relocation assistance. Any contract between a public agency or political subdivision entered into with the authority pursuant to any of the powers granted by this chapter shall be binding upon said public agency or political subdivision according to its terms, and such public agency or political subdivision shall have the power to enter into such contracts as in the discretion of the governing authorities thereof would be to the best interest of the people of such public agency or political subdivision. Such contracts may include within the discretion of such governing authorities a pledge of the full faith and credit of such political subdivision for the performance thereof. If such contracts include a pledge of the full faith and credit of such political subdivision, then for the purposes of Sections 27-39-321 and 37-57-107, the indebtedness created by such contracts shall be deemed to be general obligation bonds. The obligations of any public agency or political subdivision arising under the terms of such contracts shall not be included within the indebtedness of such public agency or political subdivision for the purposes of any constitutional or statutory limitation or provision. If at any time title to or possession of the project or any such facility or enhancement is held by any public body or governmental agency other than the authority, including any agency or instrumentality of the United States of America, the agreements referred to in this section shall inure to the benefit of and may be enforced by such public body or governmental agency.
Notwithstanding any provisions of this chapter to the contrary, any contract entered into between the authority and any political subdivision for the appropriation or payment of funds to the authority under item (a)(ii) of this section shall contain a provision therein requiring monthly payments by the political subdivision to pay its indebtedness and, if the political subdivision is not a county or municipality, such contract shall include as an additional party to the contract the county or municipality (referred to in this paragraph as "levying authority") that levies and collects taxes for the contracting political subdivision. If the political subdivision fails to pay its indebtedness for any month, the authority shall certify to the State Tax Commission, or other appropriate agency, the amount of the delinquency, and the State Tax Commission shall deduct such amount from the political subdivision's or levying authority's, as the case may be, next allocation of sales taxes, petroleum taxes, highway privilege taxes, severance taxes, Tennessee Valley Authority payments in lieu of taxes and homestead exemption reimbursements in that order of priority. The State Tax Commission, or other appropriate agency, shall pay the sums so deducted to the authority to be applied to the discharge of the contractual obligation.

The PHP cheat sheet is a one-page reference sheet, listing date format arguments, regular expression syntax and common functions.
July 31st, 2008: Some typos corrected and more examples added to date section. Thanks to Simon Hollingshead for spotting the mistakes and for the suggestions.
What's New?
There are a few small changes from the first version of the PHP Cheat Sheet (which you can still download if you prefer). The most obvious change may be that it now looks different. Hopefully it's now clearer and a little easier to find the information you're looking for.
The content is largely unchanged. The Superglobals list has been removed, and the "function argument orders" section has been changed. Rather than list the orders by themselves, I have expanded the function lists to include function arguments where possible as well.
Function List
Probably the biggest problem with PHP is its inconsistency. Some function names use underscores, some don't. Some are of the form "verb object" and some are "object verb". Some use "2" instead of "to". These sections of the cheat sheet list many of the most commonly used functions in PHP and are there to provide a quick reference to check function names. These lists include arguments where possible, as PHP's argument ordering is inconsistent between similar functions.
fopen() Modes
fopen() is a widely used function and has several modes in which it can operate, depending on whether you want to read or write to a file, and what you want to do with data already in that file. This section lists those modes and what each does.
Regular Expression Syntax
Many people have trouble with regular expressions, and the first step to coming to grips with them is to become familiar with the various symbols used in regular expressions and their meaning. This section lists these symbols and describes their meaning.
PCRE Modifiers
"PCRE" stands for "Perl Compatible Regular Expressions". In PHP, this refers to functions like "preg_replace" and "preg_split". The patterns used in these functions can have modifiers applied to them, and this section list those modifiers and what they do.
Date Formatting
There are, as I'm sure you are aware, a huge number of options when it comes to date formatting, and there are few people who remember all of them. This section of the cheat sheet lists the various options, followed by a description, and an example where appropriate.

Join Lee Strobel in a fascinating journey of discovery. You'll gain powerful insights that will reshape your understanding of the Bible. And you'll read true stories of people whose experiences demonstrate that fiath in Jesus not only make excellent sense, but a life-changing difference.
Is Faith Possible in Today's World?
It's not easy to believe in Christianity when there is pain all around you and issues that defy easy explanation. Unless there are answers to the questions you face.
Lee Strobel knows how important it is to find answers that ring true. With his background as an award-winning journalist, asking tough questions has been his business. And while his search for the truth convinced Lee that Jesus is real, it also confronted him with some particularly knotty, gut-level questions about Christianity you've likely asked as well: Why is there suffering? Doesn't science disprove miracles? What about hell---and the millions who've never heard of Jesus? Is God unjust? They're the kinds of conundrums that can block---and have blocked---people's faith.
But those questions don't have to block yours. Join Lee in a fascinating journey of discovery. You'll gain powerful insights that will reshape your understanding of the Bible. And you'll read true stories about people whose experiences demonstrate that faith in Jesus not only makes excellent sense, it makes a life-changing difference as well.

The Minor in Catholic Studies at Fairfield
Catholic Studies is an inter-disciplinary inquiry into the intellectual tradition, history and culture, both "high" and popular, of the Catholic Christian tradition. While the field of study certainly includes religious questions and theological issues, it primarily follows a "cultural studies" model. In addition to courses on the Catholic Church and issues in Catholic theology, it examines the role of the Catholic tradition in history, in literature and the arts, in the history of science, and in cultural and ethical issues related to many fields of professional practice. Its purpose is to raise awareness of the distinctive contributions of the Catholic Church to religious, cultural intellectual issues throughout the last two thousand years.
The minor in Catholic Studies will explore the texts, traditions, themes, teachings and cultural role of the Catholic Church from its inception to its contemporary expression. Particular attention will be paid to its place in contemporary America. This interdisciplinary program will enable students to study the Catholic tradition, its ethos, identity, and mission, as made tangible in history, philosophy, literature, theology, the fine arts, the social and behavioral sciences, and the natural sciences.
5 courses, 15 credits
1 course must be RS 115 "Intro to Catholicism"
At least 2 courses from the Religious Studies Department
At least 1 course from outside the RS department
View the Catholic Studies course list
To sign up for the Catholic Studies Minor please contact:

HOME PROGRAMProvides permanent housing placement for people living with HIV/AIDS with an emphasis on participant choice. We work with the HIV/AIDS Services Administration to find decent and secure housing with that extra something special that will make an apartment a home.
IN 2005, I moved from Long Island to the Bronx to get services; my shelter referred me to CitiWide. It was the first place I came to, and I liked what I saw. CitiWide turned out to be all right: it was a new environment, with new people and the chance to talk to individuals in the same predicament as me. I got to know more about addiction, mental illness, and housing, which was what I needed the most. I joined the HOME program, and learned about HASA, SSD, and took the Life Skills classes. It took some time, but I eventually saw an apartment I liked; actually, I just moved.
This spring, CitiWide helped me again by hiring me in a peer position for outreach. It's going really well so far. Working with people in the SROs gives me some perspective on where I came from. It also lets me show others how CitiWide has helped me. I know it sounds cheesy, but it makes me feel like a productive part of society.
I guess CitiWide helped me build a "foundation" for a new life. They helped me get a house, and helped me to get out of the house, to meet others, and to get my life in order. I'd say CitiWide brought me back to reality. Now I know there's still life, hope, and a future.

Beautiful Vermont
Posted by Marion Abrams on Friday, October 15, 2010,
I just bought a fantastic new camera. It shoots all the flavors of full HD video, and will allow me to make beautiful pictures. I'm pretty excited. On my way to a shoot last week, I pulled off route 100 in Killington (about 10 minutes from my home) to shoot these tests with the new camera. I wish I and the camera could take credit, but nature pulled off this miracle.

About Me
I studied painting at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston and Film at NYU, then started a career in documentary filmmaking in New York City. I soon realized the city life was not for me. After time in Aspen and in Rockport Maine I came to Vermont for a seasonal television job in the ski industry and never left. I have run my own video production business, Madmotion, llc., since 1996. I started Tweed River Video specifically for wedding video work in 2003. In addition to weddings I continue to work in documentary, commercial and sports video production and design.
