Nothing good about this restaurant except views! Food is disgusting, probably made from cheapest ingrediens, clearly microwaved!! They probably buy frozen food from Sainsbury's shop nearby, microwave it and then expect customers to pay millions for it, how naive. Drinks are terrible as well. It doesn't worth a pence! Staff was so incompetetive, rude and irespectful, manager is changing them every 2 weeks and don't pay them any money. the manager probably doesn't know how to run a business at all! He doesn't pay money for staff! I was informed, that people had to work there not for 8 but for 12 hours per day with no breaks or days off!! After 2 weeks of hard work manager fired them and didn't pay a pence or picked up a phone! It is abuse of human rights,this restraurant should be closed, someone should do something about it! Staff works their a**** off are left with nothing! That's probably the reason why they are rude with cutomers, because they're tired and unhappy! What a horrible and selfish people are bosses of this restaurant!! The worst place in London with the worst managers! Never ever go there!!

First of all the problem was the bosses were bad!
They didn't have real staff because they couldn't afford it, so the staff there were atleast kill tell experienced but what costumes don't know is that the workers worked there for 8 hours with no break plus no payment!
So obviously the staff were not motivated to do a great job awhile enjoying it.No one would!
As workers have to do what their bosses asked them to do.
So people can complain about the staff here when it's about the background that sucks.
Yes it was a nice place to chill and relax enjoy the view but they are closed now or for now but I wouldn't spend my money there either...
They were cool people when it came to conversations but when it came to bussiness it was abuse of human rights as there were no contracts, payments were not correct and at the correct days and almost if not all the staff were not paid... I do feel sorry for the people who actually spent alot of money to go up there.
For me it wasn't a pop up bar it was simply a scheme...Some one you don't know Tue Feb 19 -
If you are planning to get there with a voucher they don't tell you that you can redeem it only on Wednesdays and Fridays from and only in defined time slots.
I took me 4 days and 6 emails to redeem my voucher. In fact they manage to answer emails only after 1am. The day before the booked day the sent me this email:
"Due to unforeseen circumstances we have to cancel you booking for Friday,
We apologize for any inconvenience caused."
No further reasons were given, nor alternative dates. Nobody answered when called to the number on the website.
DO NOT GO!David Thu Sep 20 2012Rated as: 1/5 -
The views are good but the rest of it is terrible. Poor food, drink, service, furniture, decor etc. Don't bother

We made a booking with the limited availability given by the merchant We turned up on the time of our agreed booking, only to find that the evening had been cancelled by Jadvents (merchant). We had not received any correspondence or email from them to advise that it was cancelled. I struggled to get a hold of the merchant and was sent a text message saying that ALL people affected were emailed of the cancellation [after realising that their contact number on their website was incorrect…deliberate ploy maybe!!). I responded and requested that they forward evidence of this as I never received an email and other people who had bookings also were not advised of the cancellation as they too had turned up at Sky High only to be advised it was cancelled. I am yet to receive any evidence or apology or anything else. We had some very important guests of some media companies with us and they were gobsmacked!! This place should be closed down!!

This is an incredibly poor venue. Rude staff, IKEA like furniture and almost inedible food ruined what is a great view of London, and leaves you asking 'How annoyed would you be if you spent £97 on this?'. Salty hummus, salty quiches and cheese that tastes like Analogue, all served in extremely small portions, in fact, not only have I never been served salty hummus before, but to receive four small pieces of cheese with just one cracker each and a mound of inedible industrial hummus seems absolutely baffling. Unfortunately, the beverages were not much better either, the wine was pretty bad at best and the safe bet for anybody going would be to just opt for the bottle of Carlsberg Beer.
For a voucher night you don't expect a lot in terms of quality and this review may seem like I'm expecting something for nothing. But it is only because the whole evening was so egregious that I feel compelled to write this.
The whole bar feels like such a wasted opportunity. If a little time and effort was just put into making the furniture and layout less like a pop-up bar the atmosphere would be improved greatly. Likewise, the view is the main selling point and you'd be happy with just a decent selection of wines and beers and food that is of a good standard – it doesn't have to be anything amazing – combine that with polite staff and you'd feel drawn to go back again.
I sincerely hope that if you pay the full value of £97 you get something that matches the view on offer. Otherwise, don't waste your money!Chris Fri Aug 17 2012 -
I totally agree with the other disppointed reviewers and only wish I had read them before buying the voucher from Time Out. Even at the discounted price of £20 this was a rip off! 4 cocktails and 6 canapes somehow translated into poor quality bellinis (no other cocktails available) and a plate of 2 water biscuits, a few slices of processed cheese, a blob of Hummous, 3 grapes and 2 slithers of warm quiche. Staff incompetent. Call me back when I've finished laughing and take me off the mailing list now! If I could give this place 0 points I would. Oh, did I mention the appallingly uncomfortable seats?

On reading reviews before we went for dinner I was little concerend as to what we would encounter, but knowing that we had spent our money on a discount voucher, were were prepared for whatever came our way..My wife and I went there for our wedding annivesray, we had brought a voucher from one of those discount websites ( Can't rememebr which one) On arrval the recpetionist was very polite and made us feel very welcome. On exiting the lift we were greated by our waitress who lead us to our table , even while we hopped from table to table deciding on the best place to sit she remained polite, patient and humoured us. The decor was minimal and simple which we liked. The menu was simple but nice and we agreed that the prices per dish were not that bad and we would be more than happy to pay the normal price for the meals. The service only faultered once it became busier. This would be my only critism I think a few extra hands on deck would help solve this problem. The mamangement were polite to us as were the other members of staff who served us. I feel that the recpetionist who was serving us was put under alot of unnecessary presure due to lack of staff. the only downside of the evening was that sat behind us were two of the most disgusting girls I have ever encountered! from the outset we could hear every word of their conversation which basically consisted of thm conspiring to get free drinks and a refund for their voucher by complaining! They were served by the same waitress as us, and treated her so badly for their own personal gain that she was a nervous wreck afterwards. We told her what we heard and she inturn told her manager who politly asked them to leave.
For anyone wishing to visit the Sky Lounge, please remember that this only a simple place , just because it is on a floor overlooking the city don't expect to much especially as majoriy of people who have slated it have paid a discount rate anyway. I for one would would be more than happy to visit this establishment again and feel that we treated in a very professional manner.Marcel Thu Aug 16 2012Rated as: 4/5 -
Don't waste your time or money (even if getting what seems to be a reasonable voucher).. EXTREMELY RUDE STAFF who were unreasonable to a friend when she politely asked if she had to pay entrance at 6pm even though she would not be claiming her "free drink".. Totally unprofessional- especially manager Dean!

Awesome! I posted it over on the McDougall forums.
So funny!
LOL n_n I would love to post it my facebook but i think nobody will understand it u_u.
exactly my thought! they'd all be like... who's durianrider???
this is BRILLIANT!!! haha
that's a LOL!
maybe the whole low carb thing was someone's idea of a social experiment. let's write books saying that eating fat makes you skinny and see how many people actually believe it. little did they know the books would make them millions
What....are you kidding me, there's already books out saying fat makes you thin...remember the Akins diet. Anyway you look at it, it's all about balance....too much fat, not good. Too much carbs, not good. Too much anything can create an inbalance in the system. Only time will tell, and then we all will know what to do, and what not to do when it comes to our own bodies.
Too much fat, not good.
Too much carbs, not good.
False. Unless you're talking about carbs from pasta, breads and such. From fruit... not possible. It'd be like saying: "don't fill that gas tank right full... some gas is ok, but too much gas is bad for the car" ;)
Comments like too much carbs no good and too much fruit = candida aren't going to fly on 30bad, so please cut it out.
Thank you.
The 30bad Team.
Fruit doesn't cause candida in ANY folks, that's the TRUTH that we represent here on 30bad. If that's not YOUR truth that's fine, but you''ll have to take you're truth somewhere else than..
Go to McDougall's forum and tell them starch causes diabetes or something in some folks. You won't last 3 minutes.
Go to ANY forum and give them the 'too much carbs are bad/fruit causes candida' type of line for whatever they do there. You won't last 3 minutes.
So I'm just saying that if you keep sticking to those statements, your account will not stick around here for long (consider this the last warning before suspension)..
Rawbert....sorry that you have become so offended. This is obviously a very sensitive issue for you.
Hi Ellen. Rawbert speaks on behalf of the 30BaD team, so please see this as not merely something he is sensitive about, but as something that is simply not in line with how we do things here on 30BaD. Please review our guidelines to help understand why this is.
I'm not offended at all Ellen.. I'm just doing my job, enforcing the forum rules.

Double vision, also called diplopia, causes a person to see two images of a single object. There are two types of double vision: monocular and binocular.
Monocular diplopia is double vision in only one eye. The double vision continues even when the other eye is covered. The doubling does not go away when you look in different directions. Monocular diplopia can be caused by:
Binocular diplopia is double vision related to a misalignment of the eyes. The double vision stops if either eye is covered. Any problem that affects one or more of the muscles around the eyeball that control the direction of the gaze can cause binocular diplopia. These are called extraocular muscles. Such problems include:
The only symptom is seeing two images of a single object.
The first step is to determine whether your double vision is monocular or binocular. To do this, your doctor will ask you to cover one eye and then the other. If you have monocular diplopia, your doctor will evaluate you for conditions, such as cataracts, that could be causing the problem. You will then need to see an eye specialist (an ophthalmologist). If the problem is binocular and there has been no facial trauma, then your doctor will want to know if you have diabetes, Graves' disease or neurological disorders.
In diagnosing binocular diplopia, your doctor has to determine which eye muscles are affected. To do this, you will be asked to look at the doctor's finger as he moves it up, down, left and right. This lets the doctor see how far your eye can move in each direction. Your doctor also will cover one eye and then the other, while you focus on a target. If the doctor sees your eyes shift as the eye cover is moved, it means your eyes are not aligned properly. Prisms may be placed over your eye to shift the image, and the test is repeated. The prisms allow the doctor to measure the amount or degree of your double vision when you look in different directions. This helps to diagnose the problem and monitor the problem over time. Your doctor will use the results of this exam, together with your medical history and additional symptoms, to determine if you need more tests.
For example, if your doctor suspects that you have hyperthyroidism, then you will need blood tests to measure thyroid hormone levels. If your doctor suspects that something is affecting the nerves to your eye muscles, you may need a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computed tomography (CT) scan of your head to check for signs of trauma, bleeding, tumor or blood vessel malformations in the brain.
In most cases, double vision is easy to pinpoint in adults because they can describe what they are seeing. Symptoms are tougher to pinpoint in children, who may not be able to explain what is wrong. Parents may notice that the child is squinting, covering one eye with a hand, tilting or turning the head abnormally, or looking sideways.
How long your double vision lasts depends on what is causing it. For example, cataracts and pterygium may become worse over time, but both can be corrected immediately with surgery. In people whose double vision is caused by diabetes, the nerve often regrows after several months. When this happens, double vision gradually disappears. Children with double vision caused by strabismus can improve with treatment.
Some causes of double vision can be prevented. To help prevent double vision related to head trauma, wear a seat belt with a shoulder harness while driving, and wear protective goggles and headgear during sporting activities and at work, if your work carries a high risk of eye injury. People with diabetes can decrease their chance of nerve damage, which can lead to double vision, by controlling blood sugar. There is no way to prevent age-related cataracts or some other forms of double vision.
Treating double vision depends on its cause. For example, people with astigmatism that causes double vision can wear special contact lenses. Sometimes, simply updating your prescription eyeglasses takes care of the problem. Surgery is used to treat cataracts and pterygium, and surgery on the eye muscles can treat certain types of double vision. Often, adjustable stitches are used so that the position of the eyes can be fine-tuned a few hours after the surgery. That way, the patient is alert for the adjustment and can report whether the double vision is gone. Prisms also may be used in the glasses to fine-tune the surgery by moving the image seen with one eye to coincide with the other eye.
For children with strabismus, treatment includes wearing prescription eyeglasses, prism vision therapy to train the eyes to align properly, or surgery. Double vision caused by a medical or neurological disease may improve by treating the disease. Eye specialists may consider other strategies to help improve the eye movements. Injections of botulinum toxin (Botox) can weaken strong eye muscles opposite the weakened one to help balance vision.
Call your doctor right away if you have a dramatic change in vision or sudden difficulty seeing clearly.
Children should have their first eye exam before they are 6 months old, with a follow-up exam at age 3. Adults older than age 40 should have an eye examination every two years, even if they have no noticeable vision problems.
The outlook for double vision depends on its cause. For example, surgery improves the vision of more than 90% of patients with cataracts. Although surgery also can remove a pterygium, the abnormal growth can come back and eventually become larger than the original.
For most children with strabismus, the prognosis is excellent if the condition is detected and treated early.

Councilman Bob Rush has requested Mayor Gene Hobgood and each member of the City Council appoint one person older than 62 and another person younger than that to a committee charged to review issues concerning senior residents and city finances and recommend action the city should take.
Some of the issues Rush said the city need to consider involve its water department, enhancing fire protection, senior subsidies on trash services and senior exemptions on property taxes.
The committee would also be tasked with figuring out whether the city should consider raising its millage rate to make up for the property tax digest decline the city's witnessed in the past few years.
Rush said he decided to appoint the committee because he hasn't "seen this administration willing to make" decisions.
"We didn't raise our water rates until our backs were against the wall," he said, referring to the city's reluctance last year to raise the rates after a consultant informed the city it should do so.
On the utilities side, the committee could deliberate on whether the city should sell its 25 percent stake in the Hickory Log Creek Reservoir and merge its water and sewer operations with the Cherokee County Water and Sewerage Authority.
On fire services, the committee could consider whether the city should work to maintain its Insurance Service Office rating of 4, work to increase its ISO rating to 3 or merge with Cherokee County Fire and Emergency Services.
With emergency services, Rush said seniors in the city make up about 35 percent of all EMS calls and that cost for those calls last year were more than $450,000.
To help make up the difference, Rush said the committee could also consider reducing its millage rate by 2.8 mills and implementing a citywide fire tax to broaden the burden to all residents.
When it comes to subsidies for seniors, Rush also said the committee could debate the pros and cons on whether the city should increase its trash pick-up rates for seniors from $7.50 per month to $10 and whether it should reduce or eliminate the senior homestead exemption currently in place.
A senior in Canton who owns a home valued at $300,000, assessed at 40 percent, or $120,000, would have the $112,000 homestead exemption applied, which would leave the property with $8,000 that can be taxed.
The city then calculates the taxable portion with its 6.80 millage rate, resulting in the homeowner having a $54 tax bill.
Due to the overwhelming drop in assessed value, some homeowners end up paying no property taxes.
The issue of the fairness of property tax exemptions for senior citizens in Canton came to a head earlier this year when Councilman Bill Bryan encouraged the city to consider doing away with the exemption.
Bryan's suggestion was met with opposition by the council as well as many senior citizens in the city.
Some council members were warm to Rush's idea of appointing a committee.
However, Mayor Gene Hobgood said he's had enough input on the senior property tax exemption.
"I know what they want," he said.
Hobgood in the past has said he's opposed to decreasing or eliminating the exemption altogether.
Bryan added he thought the proposal was a "good idea."
Councilman John Beresford, who said he didn't have a problem with having outside input, also said the council is "elected to make decisions."
Councilman Hooky Huffman agreed, saying he hate to see the council use the committee to delay action on these items.
"We need to look at these things and take action fast," he said, adding he didn't like the "inefficiency of the use of time."

Normal Behavior or Mental Illness?
Several new diagnoses will appear in the soon to-be-released Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders – Fifth Edition (DSM-V). In fact, quite a bit of controversy surrounds the inclusion of several of these new "disorders" in what is considered to be the mental health world's diagnostic "bible," as many question their validity and appropriateness for inclusion.
Among the new DSM-V disorders is Excoriation (Skin Picking) Disorder, classified within the Obsessive Compulsive and Related Disorders. It is understandable that the initial public reaction to this release of information has been skeptical (at best). News outlets have begun to question the validity of the diagnosis. Readers have begun to leave comments such as, "Great, now we're all mentally ill."
Yes, everyone picks at his or her skin at some point; however, Excoriation Disorder far exceeds "normal" grooming behavior. Think of grooming behavior as occurring on a continuum, with normal, washing and exfoliating on one end of the continuum, extending to picking, scraping, or gouging that results in scarring or disfigurement on the other end.

I canceled my cable TV service today. Later this afternoon I am going to drop off the HD DVR and since I have consistently overpaid my bill for the last year they actually owe me money when all is said and done. People that know me real well might think I have lost my mind. Partly because they know how much TV and how many movies I watch and partly because......they know how much TV and how many movies I watch.
I love TV. I have grown up in the TV generation. My generation started watching TV when the bulk of it was still in black and white. We lived through the transition to color. We lived through the transition from an antenna on top of everyone's house to having cable. We lived through the added competition and cheaper pricing that satellite services have brought us. We lived through early adopters putting antennas back on top of the house to get HDTV signals over the air. If I wanted to hold on for another 8 months I would experience the cut off of analog signals when we go digital.
But I decided to cancel my cable service for several reasons --
Cost - I was spending roughly $100 a month on cable TV service. It wasn't anything fancy, a basic package upgraded with all of the HD channels they offered and an HD DVR. No premium movie channels and no sports packages. That's $100 a month for something that up until the 70's was 100% free. Sure, cable introduced a bunch of cool stuff but 30 years down the road, there are really only a small number of channels and shows worth watching on the 100's of channels offered (IMO) and $100 a month just isn't worth it. So that is $1200 a year I get to keep and in these troubling financial times, the more money in my pocket, the better.
Selection - My cable company offered 25 HD channels (not including the premium HBO type HD channels). But they do not offer and have no plans to offer SciFi HD, or Monsters HD which I would love to have. When compared against DirectTV's HD lineup, they just can't match it. And since they are the only cable company in town, it seems to me they have no desire to add additional services to make it worth my money to stay with them. Problem is, I can't get DirectTV because of all the tall tress on my property and I don't want to add a huge mast on the property to mount a dish on just to make it happen.
Time - There just isn't enough of it. I watch a LOT of TV and movies. It is an incredible time suck and I want some of the time back to accomplish other things in my life. I am not getting any younger and neither are my wife and kids. The fence needs mending, the south 40 needs some work, and I have camping to do.
It's still going to be out there - The major networks place most of the shows I would be interested in watching on their web sites within 24-48 hours of the original air date. Failing that, everyone releases DVD compilations just before the new season begins. So I can rent what I REALLY want to watch and play catch up when I need to. Nothing like spending a rainy day in your pajamas watching episode after episode of Battlestar Galactica..... I also believe most movies are worth watching on the big screen in the theater, opening weekend when the crowd gets into it.
I also truly believe that the broadcasters and Hollywood have lost the war against P2P and file sharing sites. They will never be able to prevent content from being distributed digitally over the Internet. It only takes a BitTorrent client and decent Internet connection and 30 minutes to locate, download and start watching a compressed HD version of most TV shows and movies (....or so I've heard....). They are going to figure this out sooner or later and digital distribution will become the standard means of getting content in the next 5-10 years. I have mentioned in several seminars that I am far less impressed with the 100's of CD's and DVD's people have on display at their houses and far more impressed with people that have Home Theater PC's that allow them to call up what they want to consume within seconds without having to dig a CD or a DVD out of a case, watch all the previews and THEN get to the movie. Long ago I ripped down my entire music and DVD collections and put it all in crates in the basement. There will come a day, and a lot sooner than many think, where we don't own any physical media at all except for a big RAID array where it is all stored. So call me an early, early adopter.
Thus begins my one year long experiment with no TV services (officially starts July 1st). I will consume what I can from the content providers web sites and supplement the rest with DVD rentals, and going to the movies. I know where the bars are that show my favorite sports teams live and I have season tickets for the Seattle Thunderbirds. I haven't watched live news broadcasts regularly in years (does anyone anymore?) and I know enough people with DVR's that I can capture anything else I may want to see through them.
Time to start working on the honey-do list.....
Normally this time of year is slow and I enjoy the downtime by doing summery stuff. I will still get that fun and leisure in, but I am working on a few projects right now.
I am writing a session for our Q1 content tentatively called "Why Vista?".
I am writing two sessions for delivery in Second Life on June 28th
I am working on some screencasts to discuss more in depth some of the new FTP services in FTP 7 for Windows 2008
The work on the screencasts and encoding the work has raised my interest in the variety of encoding formats and codecs used in the audio/video world so you might see some sessions on that in the future.
And I am still, very slowly, migrating my home network over to Windows 2008 AD. I am documenting this as well.
Keep your eyes peeled!
Lots of reasons why I like this post!
1) I like the content I am delivering in this one. Short, Sweet, to the point. This is the kind of stuff I want to do!
2) How many people even know when have a Secure FTP server service in Windows now?
3) This is my first SilverLight embedded post! I have been chomping at the bits to do some of these and just have not taken the time. Over the past 2 days I have been working off of a document that my buddy Keith Combs put together for our team that was tremendously helpful in getting me going.
4) This is going to push me to leverage my new Quad Core/8 Gig of RAM boxes. Rendering videos down has always been painful and these two boxes should alleviate a lot of the time wasted watching progress bars crawl across the screen.
Now for the real post content. As noted above, not too many people even know that we have a Secure FTP service for Windows now. We haven't exactly gone out of our way to let the world know, so I want to do my part. As usual, I am using my home servers so you won't see all the Contoso stuff for the demos.
An excellent source of information on the new FTP services and EVERYTHING IIS related is at the IIS.net web site.
btw....you can go full screen by double-clicking on the video during playback or using the button on the far left of the player toolbar.
You won't be accessing it directly from my blog. Instead, I have posted it through the Technet EDGE portal. Why? Because the file is 325 megs in size and hosting it at home really isn't an option. Also, I am limited on storage space for where our blogs.technet.com blogs reside. I am working on getting that resolved so that I can host some things directly through the blog and others on EDGE.
"Hey Chris! Why the hell did it take so long for you to get this online?!?!?!"
1) I am not a video editing guy (yet) and the tool set to do all of this is a little convoluted to work with. I had stuff to learn.
2) I really wanted to post things like this to my blog instead of another property. But when push comes to shove I really just need to get the content out there. I am working on some other blogging things that will let me host it all myself.
3) I am a horrible procrastinator....(working on that too)....
Now that I have run through the initial toolset, my next project will be to do some significantly smaller videos and screencasts to stream via SilverLight. I am actually working on that today so you may see some samples later today or early tomorrow. Not guaranteeing it, just working on that as my goal.
Oh yeah....I guess I should provide the link for the BitLocker Interview!!
Technology Wizards is a group of independent IT consultants with a strong focus on small business. I have delivered some Windows and SBS sessions for their group in the past. Ken Shafer leads the group and he let me know about an independent "Get The Facts" seminar they are delivering on Vista. You can get more information and register for the event here. Here is a summary of what the event is about....
"Are you an IT Pro, Reseller or Consultant considering whether or not to deploy or recommend deploying Windows Vista for business use? Are you trying to figure out how to recommend to technical or business decisions makers whether to upgrade or not, and why? Are you frustrated with all the opinions and hype and want the real facts? This FREE educational event will be conducted by a group of independent IT Professionals and is not about marketing spin or opinion-based rhetoric. It is about getting the facts you need to make a decision regarding deployment of Windows Vista. We will cover many of the features and benefits of Windows Vista, but we will do it with a real-world approach. You will also hear about some of the challenges and solutions, including deployment and features of Service Pack 1. In addition, a panel discussion will give you an opportunity to get questions answered that may be lingering. If you are an IT Decision Maker, IT Professional or a Technology Reseller/Consultant, this is the Windows Vista event you've been waiting for."

Mischief Night clampdown
7:52am Tuesday 23rd October 2012 in News By Jennifer Bell, email@example.com
YOUTHS who hurl eggs and flour in the run up to Mischief Night are being targeted by police in York and North and East Yorkshire as they warn teenagers their "malicious" actions can cause misery.
Officers in North Yorkshire and Humberside police forces have launched a campaign to highlight the problems caused over the weeks leading up to and after Mischief Night, which traditionally takes place on November 4.
Police will be stepping up patrols and will contact local shops to encourage retailers not to sell large quantities of flour and eggs to young people.
Sergeant Pete Rogers, of the Pocklington and Wolds Weighton Neighbourhood Policing Team, is spearheading a campaign under the banner "Your Mischief, Their Misery" which will run until November 6.
Sgt Rogers asked parents to make sure they knew where their children were and what they were doing.
He said: "The distress and misery caused by antisocial behaviour and minor damage around Mischief Night can be traumatic for those targeted and very often the most vulnerable people in our communities are the victims.
"This is not about fun. Very often these acts are openly malicious and property is permanently damaged.
"If offences are committed those responsible will be dealt with and our patrols will be out and about ensuring that we are around to do this."
In North Yorkshire, police are asking everyone to play their part to ensure that Mischief Night passes off peacefully.
Parents are asked to make sure they know where their children are and what they are doing and also to make sure that youngsters know the dangers of playing with fireworks.
A force spokesman said: "This time of year is often feared by vulnerable members of our community. We want to send a clear message that we will not tolerate any trouble under the guise of mischief.
"Our message is simple; 'enjoy the season, have fun, but not at others' expense or you will find yourself facing the consequences'."

Mischief night, when knocking on doors and running away was the accepted norm, Bonfire night with it's weeks of going around collecting trash and hauling it to to the Scarcroft bonny, and Carrol singing, which was rewarding for both the kids, and the neighbors, who would stand and listen to even the worst of local choirs. All fond memories of the best days of our childhood years, and just about all non PC now, and finished.. How sad for the kids of today to have never experienced these great and innocent parts of childhood.

Singapore's future place on the Formula 1 calendar remains up in the air, with circuit chiefs suggesting there is no guarantee a fresh deal will be sorted.
The race organizers and Bernie Ecclestone have been locked in negotiations for several months now trying to thrash out a fresh five-year deal, but there are disagreements about the size of the race fee. Ecclestone has traditionally been eager for fees to increase, but amid a worldwide financial slowdown a number of events have requested that costs are reduced, and Singapore is no exception.
A claim by Ecclestone earlier this year that the matter had been resolved was strongly denied by Singapore race officials, who said that the terms being offered did not make the event commercially viable. A statement said: "What is presently on offer from Formula One Administration is insufficient for us to commit to a full five-year extension."
Talks are expected to continue over this weekend's Singapore GP, and senior management figures are reluctant to expand on the situation until progress has been made. However, a statement from the organizers suggested that a renewal was only "possible," which casts fresh doubts on the long-term future of the event.
"We are in the process of negotiating a possible renewal of the agreement and the outcome will be announced once discussions are complete," officials stated.
It is understood that although the original five-year deal for the race runs out after this year's event, there remain clauses in the contract that means the grand prix will likely take place until 2014 even if no contract beyond then is agreed. Ecclestone is expected to make a statement about the race's future on Saturday.
Singapore was a part of the provisional 2013 calendar that was issued to teams this weekend, but was marked down as one of several events that was subject to confirmation.

The places we go
Posted in Uncategorized with tags adventure, beginning, Dr. Seuss, poems on November 17, 2011 by ehh36There are places I would like to go in life that aren't easily qualified. As I start applying for internships for the summer it becomes increasingly clear to me that I'm not sure exactly what I want to do. My dog and I are inseparable and have tackled so many hiking excursions together: a mountain guide? I've always loved writing and photography: a career in magazine journalism? I grew up in an agricultural community and have seen the good it can bring to third world countries: field research in developing agriculture? I never want to stop learning: perpetual university student? College is supposed to help you narrow your focus but I've somehow managed only to make mine wider. Most of the time, my life feels like a jumbled mess of indecision. I'm constantly searching for things I haven't discovered yet. I'm unbearably restless.
I also love reading (is there a job for that?). Last week I was rediscovering some of my favorite poems and came across a childhood classic, "Oh! The Places You'll Go!" by the brilliant Dr. Seuss. If you haven't read it, do it. Now. While it invokes many clichéd sentences about living life to the fullest, I take Seuss's words as a nudge to never become stationary and inflexible in life. I'm not sure where he meant when he referenced the places I would go in my life, but I keep moving forward toward happiness and humor. I think if you can have a good dose of both, not much can go wrong.
As my time in France ticks by faster than I want it to (one month left… yikes), I try not to stress about the future. It's more fun to put myself out there and see what happens. Seuss gives the best advice, " You'll get mixed up with many strange birds as you go. So be sure when you step. Step with care and great tact and remember that Life's a Great Balancing Act. Just never forget to be dexterous and deft. And never mix up your right foot with your left". Who knows, maybe I can combine all of those things I love someday. A researcher in agriculture development who writes for a hiking magazine and takes pictures for her dog all while reading children's poems she forgot about a long time ago.
I think Seuss would approve of that.
And now, because you just promised me you would read it,
"Oh! The Places You'll Go!"
By the incomparable Dr. Seuss
Today is your day.
You're off to Great Places!
You're off and away!
You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself any direction you choose.
You're on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the guy who'll decide where to go.
You'll look up and down streets. Look'em over with care. About some you will say, "I don't choose to go there." With your head full of brains and your shoes full of feet, you're too smart to go down a not-so-good street.
And you may not find any you'll want to go down. In that case, of course, you'll head straight out of town. It's opener there in the wide open air.
Out there things can happen and frequently do to people as brainy and footsy as you.
And when things start to happen, don't worry. Don't stew. Just go right along. You'll start happening too.
Oh! The Places You'll Go!
You'll be on your way up!
You'll be seeing great sights!
You'll join the high fliers who soar to high heights.
You won't lag behind, because you'll have the speed. You'll pass the whole gang and you'll soon take the lead. Wherever you fly, you'll be best of the best. Wherever you go, you will top all the rest.
Except when you don't.
Because, sometimes, you won't.
I'm sorry to say so but, sadly, it's true that Bang-ups and Hang-ups can happen to you.
You can get all hung up in a prickle-ly perch. And your gang will fly on. You'll be left in a Lurch.
You'll come down from the Lurch with an unpleasant bump. And the chances are, then, that you'll be in a Slump.
And when you're in a Slump, you're not in for much fun. Un-slumping yourself is not easily done.
You will come to a place where the streets are not marked. Some windows are lighted. But mostly they're darked. A place you could sprain both your elbow and chin! Do you dare to stay out? Do you dare to go in? How much can you lose? How much can you win?
And if you go in, should you turn left or right…or right-and-three-quarters? Or, maybe, not quite? Or go around back and sneak in from behind? Simple it's not, I'm afraid you will find, for a mind-maker-upper to make up his mind.
You can get so confused that you'll start in to race down long wiggled roads at a break-necking pace and grind on for miles across weirdish wild space, headed, I fear, toward a most useless place.
The Waiting Place…for people just waiting.
Waiting for a train to go or a bus to come, or a plane to go or the mail to come, or the rain to go or the phone to ring, or the snow to snow or waiting around for a Yes or No or waiting for their hair to grow. Everyone is just waiting.
Waiting for the fish to bite or waiting for wind to fly a kite or waiting around for Friday night or waiting, perhaps, for their Uncle Jake or a pot to boil, or a Better Break or a string of pearls, or a pair of pants or a wig with curls, or Another Chance. Everyone is just waiting.
No! That's not for you!
Somehow you'll escape all that waiting and staying. You'll find the bright places where Boom Bands are playing. With banner flip-flapping, once more you'll ride high! Ready for anything under the sky. Ready because you're that kind of a guy!
Oh, the places you'll go! There is fun to be done! There are points to be scored. There are games to be won. And the magical things you can do with that ball will make you the winning-est winner of all. Fame! You'll be famous as famous can be, with the whole wide world watching you win on TV.
Except when they don't. Because, sometimes, they won't.
I'm afraid that some times you'll play lonely games too. Games you can't win 'cause you'll play against you.
All Alone!
Whether you like it or not, Alone will be something you'll be quite a lot.
And when you're alone, there's a very good chance you'll meet things that scare you right out of your pants. There are some, down the road between hither and yon, that can scare you so much you won't want to go on.
But on you will go though the weather be foul. On you will go though your enemies prowl. On you will go though the Hakken-Kraks howl. Onward up many a frightening creek, though your arms may get sore and your sneakers may leak. On and on you will hike. And I know you'll hike far and face up to your problems whatever they are.
You'll get mixed up, of course, as you already know. You'll get mixed up with many strange birds as you go. So be sure when you step. Step with care and great tact and remember that Life's a Great Balancing Act. Just never forget to be dexterous and deft. And never mix up your right foot with your left.
And will you succeed?
Yes! You will, indeed!
(98 and ¾ percent guaranteed.)
Kid, you'll move mountains!
So…be your name Buxbaum or Bixby or Bray or Mordecai Ale Van Allen O'Shea, you're off to Great Places!
Today is your day!
Your mountain is waiting.
So…get on your way!

ALBANY - After four days of deliberations, a guilty verdict reached by a federal court jury Wednesday could put the Saratoga County financiers, Timothy McGinn and David Smith away for years.
This verdict is a big fall from grace for two very well known local investors.
The 29-count indictment against both McGinn and Smith included accusations of conspiracy to commit fraud, several counts of mail fraud and wire fraud, securities fraud and filing false tax returns.
It all boils down to these two men people trusted with their hard earned money essentially duping clients out of millions and in many cases their whole life savings. Prosecutors argued McGinn and Smith conducted a Ponzi-like scheme through their Saratoga County brokerage firm.
The Securities and Exchange Commission shut down the firm in 2009.
Both men took the stand in an attempt to defend themselves during the four-week trial in Utica, but the jury didn't buy their story.
Sentencing is scheduled for the end of June.
Both men face the possibility of spending the next 30 years in Federal Prison.

Auto-advance: ON
Auto-advanceThis transcript is automatically generated
And tonight if President Obama and senate Democrats had their way the taxes on small business owners -- job creators all across America would be on the rise yesterday.
Without the support of a single Republican Democrats voted to ram through their proposal.
Right for the senate and that was moments -- the majority leader Harry Reid successfully killed the GOP plan.
That would have extended the bush era tax cuts for everybody the pays taxes so what does this stalemate mean for you your family -- lawyers -- If the Democrats remain hell -- on raising taxes on people who actually stimulate the economy.
And create jobs and an agreement is not made before January 1 while taxes will be up on each and every American and while tax -- approaches back home.
Governor Mitt Romney was at ten Downing Street today in London visiting with British prime minister David Cameron.
Now tomorrow Romney will be on hand for the opening ceremonies of the Olympics and then he'll -- to a place that President Obama has never found the time to visit while in office that's Israel.
And joining me now a with a preview of that trip and some insight into the tax debate.
At that is now -- raging and wash it in the house majority leader congressman Eric Cantor congressman welcome our backs are.
Sean good to be with you might explain what happened but this is a plan in -- house is a plan in the senate.
In the seat in the house she voted tax cuts for everybody president one time said don't raise taxes to -- O economy what happened in the senate.
Well today Sean I think for the whole world to see what we saw Harry Reid the Democrats.
Vote overwhelmingly.
To raise taxes on America's job creators.
You know this is -- simultaneous with a Gallup poll that was just released today we're at 35%.
The nation's.
Small business people.
Don't have any confidence whatsoever in the economy.
And so if you've got business people lacking confidence.
You know you really have to ask yourself.
Why does it make sense to raise taxes and this is what -- said over and over again you've got an ailing economy he ought not be raising taxes on job creators secondly.
You've got a situation where this spending is still out of control Washington Harry Reid and Barack Obama refused to do anything about that.
So asking people to pay more money into Washington so that they can't keep more of what they -- Actually makes matters worsened digs a hole deeper so again I think you gonna save this underscores Sean what's going on this election season in November.
You know -- at the American people have a real choice and they're gonna have to respond to the question they're asking themselves what direction they want this country to go and to a bigger government higher taxes in Washington making all the decisions.
Or do we want to empower our small business men and women to get about the business of investing in creating value and actually building businesses even though the president doesn't think.
That it is a small business people that build the business well.
Let me go to that because you know -- you can -- that lot of Smart people lot of people that work -- -- -- because I think this is one of the two biggest -- and the president has now made the last two -- let me play this 11.
And get your reaction and what does -- tell you about the president.
-- coupled with his failed economic -- -- control us.
-- on the great -- someone in your life.
-- -- -- -- -- That's unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to -- Some invest in roads and bridges -- you got a business that you don't build Matt.
And you don't got -- my mother changed my diapers and she gave me these horrible we need a horrible tasting you know us mashed peas and carrots well -- wouldn't be your congressman.
And his son that's -- -- actually is being right man at the right time to become the president of the United States.
Because he assessment of fact that he does build businesses.
He has -- business says he understands.
What this country's all about this country's about economic freedom.
Where ordinary people can do extraordinary things no matter where you come from.
And that's frankly what the presence -- doesn't get.
-- what do you make of this comment.
Now it's all I give you greeted and some Democrat to say allow a year you're cropping -- -- cutting out the context he's talking about Bill Clinton unlike.
First of all Bill Clinton.
You know was working with the Republicans.
And the Arab big government was over in the end welfare as we know and Bill Clinton didn't run -- five trillion dollar deficit and 33 and -- -- years.
So the trying to sort of Parse the words that he said here but still it's -- we we tried our plan and it worked.
May play for him.
Just like we've tried their plan we try to have planted a work.
But choice selection.
That's why product for a second -- one of he's referring to Clinton.
Excuse me he's no Bill Clinton.
And Hannity and to know we tried his plan for three and a half years and he said it would be a one term proposition.
Given didn't work and it hasn't.
And you know Saunders there -- been nothing more extreme.
And then this president's agenda for the economy.
As we've seen the red ink is just flooded here in Washington this place is awash in red and and it.
A wash and regulations that mean this week on the end in the us house representatives we focus on the fact that we've got to cut the red tape.
This is too hard to be in business right now.
And have the number one -- -- to grow the economy of the number one issue is to engender confidence on the part of the American people and the entrepreneurs.
The last thing in his Washington encroaching on every sector the economy the way it is.
And I don't care what the acronym is just pick one there's a federal agency in this town is doing damage as small business frozen right now I'd let let me throw a few statistic you and ask you how bad it would be if it.
Barack Obama -- to -- and a second term.
But those -- -- you know we have five trillion dollars in debt that he is accumulated new debt.
He called bush unpatriotic and irresponsible for four trillion dollars in debt in in eight years.
We now have literally 46 million Americans that are on food stamps forty million Americans that are in poverty.
The food stamp numbers come up by fifteen plus million and that we got as a percentage GDP debt deficit spending.
At the highest level since World War II if we continue down that path for four more years -- what happened to the American economy.
I -- and I am fearful that if we continue down the path from the Obama agenda.
We'll be live in a country we do not recognize that's why this election so important and frankly the American people got a huge choice in problem.
Are we gonna go on the direction the Mitt Romney's lining up for this country a direction in which small business people entrepreneurs working families can live the dream.
That is that they can go about building and earning their success and provide their families about alive or we got to go on empowerment.
Washington to grow ever bigger.
To take more the hard earned money the people that actually make it and start to make decisions for working families businesses across the board which one is it.
And I believe frankly the American people understand that our country is about freedom it's about economic freedom individual freedom.
And you know it is the Obama policies that are.
Just anathema to the concepts.
Limited government and more individual freedom and so again I would say and so on.
We've been and I cannot recall a time in ways that matters are more urgency and the fact that folks are really going to be put to the testing here when we come in November of I'm confident of the outcome that will elect Mitt Romney is an ex president -- states and win the senate.
And maintain a house so we can get this country back on track -- congressman good to see again as always thanks for being with us appreciate -- --

Justin Timberlake in Air Jordan III "White/Cement"
August 15th, 2013 by Brendan Dunne | 10 comments
You already know that Justin Timberlake is well connected with the Jordan Brand team, after all the man has his own line of Jordans made specially for his Summer tour. He's not wearing one of those here, but the pair is one that should turn heads no less-the Air Jordan III "White/Cement". It's worth pointing out as well that JT is no new-comer to the Jordans scene, all you've gotta do is flip through older photos of him (If that's your thing) and you'll see plenty of fine footwear. Continue reading to get more of Timberlake in his Jordans and check back in with us to see if he brings out any of those all red bangers.

When you guys release the selected songs of Rock Band Network on to the PS3 and Wii Rock Band Stores, is there any chance for them to be on the 360 as well? It's just to cater for the countries that isn't XNA supported (such as my country, Australia).
And plus it'd be playable on RB1 as well, so that's a bonus!
