"fully within a legal framework"
We all operate fully within a legal framework. Some people bump up against the scaffolding and get noticed. others manage to slip through and are never noticed or caught. Some people are part of the architecture team and know where all the gaps and alarms are.

By 'panel' do you mean the docking 'toolbar' and 'system tray' on the bottom of the screen?
On Mint 13 MATE, I've got pop-out panels (i.e. set to autohide) on the top, left and right of my screen and leave the bottom (system) panel fixed; though I could make it autohide if I wanted by calling up its Properties and ticking the appropriate box. It's great, it reminds me of Windows XP, ahhhh.........

Re: Alternative to Windows?
I find that Mint 13 MATE is an excellent replacement for Windows XP on my laptop, twin screen desktop and Eee PC, and I'm willing to accept its little quirks. When I'm happy with something then I tend to stick with it; but I might try the latest version and Cinnamon on a spare hard drive, just to be totally safe.

Executable code is produced by a compiler _before_ it is executed and often on a different machine to the one that uses the code. This is about something that improves code efficiency _while_ it is being executed on a target device.
(Having a compiler optimise for a target architecture would be a separate consideration.)

Snowden dodges US agents in Moscow, skips out on flight

2 Dead After Private Plane Crashes Near Jamaica
A small U.S. plane that took off from Rochester, New York, has crashed on the island of Jamaica, according to officials there.
Flight is the process by which an object moves, through an atmosphere (especially the air) or beyond it (as in the case of spaceflight), by generating aerodynamic lift, propulsive thrust, aerostatically using buoyancy, or by ballistic movement, without direct support from any surface.
Many things fly, from natural aviators such as birds, bats and insects to human inventions such as missiles, aircraft such as airplanes, helicopters and balloons, to rockets such as spacecraft.
The engineering aspects of flight are studied in aerospace engineering which is subdivided into aeronautics, the study of vehicles that travel through the air, and astronautics, the study of vehicles that travel through space, and in ballistics, the study of the flight of projectiles.
Humans have managed to construct lighter than air vehicles that raise off the ground and fly, due to their buoyancy in air and water.
An aerostat is a system that remains aloft primarily through the use of buoyancy to give an...
A small U.S. plane that took off from Rochester, New York, has crashed on the island of Jamaica, according to officials there.
The two involved the fight, a man and woman, both 48, were not allowed to continue to the flight's original destination.
Using your device during take-off does not interfere with the plane's safety and Australian airlines are finally catching up with the rest of the world.
There's plenty of room to stretch out on these flights.
A drunk and abusive man has been tied to his seat on an Air India flight from Australia to New Dehli.
The FAA issued a restriction for flights over airspace in Iraq on Friday.
A flight attendant on Australian airline Jetstar told passengers returning from a festival to flush any drugs they were carrying on them.
The largest "four-winged" dinosaur known has been found, and this predator has the longest feathers yet outside of birds, researchers say.
Amelia Earhart is attempting the famous flight her namesake never finished.
Southwest Airlines ranks near the bottom of airlines' on-time arrivals, but it's working on improving its performance by the end of the year.
Six hundred feet above a waterfront airstrip, Jeff Boerboon is a blur in a cherry red biplane. The noise of his propeller engine drowns out the cheers of the crowd below, who have spent a beautiful summer afternoon watching him perform a set of aerial acrobatics — flips, turns, and nausea-inducing spins. But Boerboon has a surprise in store for them.
Unbundled airline fares are becoming the new norm. Frontier Airlines announced a new, "simplified" airfare structure on Monday, offering lower initial fares while completely unbundling flight options. While the Denver-based carrier said the change enables customers "to truly customize their flight," what this means in practice is there will be a fee for everything from bringing a carry-on bag to requesting a seat assignment.
Have you been daydreaming about your next vacation? Why not take it this weekend? The word "vacation" is more evocative of a pristine Caribbean beach than a mid-size town two hours from your home, but both have their benefits, and even the shortest getaway can be refreshing. There's no better time to travel than now, so stop putting "plan vacation" on your to-do list.
If you fly often, you probably take air travel for granted. Flying over oceans and across continents is less exciting the third or fourth time around. But you might see your next flight differently after watching 71-year-old An and 78-year-old Ria, two Dutch women who took their first flight ever, together. See also: Coming Soon: Your Personal Flying Car "We're just like two princesses!" Ria says to An as they board the plane.
The two Swiss pilots who flew a solar-powered plane on a record-setting coast-to-coast flight across the United States last summer will unveil their next-generation solar plane this week, which they will use in 2015 to circumnavigate the globe. Pilots André Borschberg and Bertrand Piccard are slated to reveal a new solar-powered airplane, dubbed Solar Impulse 2, in a ceremony on April 9, beginning at 9 a.m.
The search is still on for the Malaysia Airlines flight 370, which mysteriously vanished somewhere en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing on March 7. There were 239 people on board, and so far, all clues have led nowhere. Flight 370 was cruising around 35,000 feet when it dropped from radar with no signal from pilots, which is almost unheard of in the aviation world.
The Wright Brothers flew their first flight in a 21 ft. airplane over the Outer Banks of North Carolina. About 14 of their planes could fit inside the world's newest, largest aircraft, the Airlander, a 300 ft. zeppelin-shaped, helium-filled vessel. The U.S. government originally funded the development of the voluminous aircraft, but scraped plans due to budget cuts. The aircraft -- built in England -- made one flight in Lakehurst, N.J., at McGuire Air Force Base in August 2012.
Startups that design a product with a target customer in mind often have more success than those that attempt to build a broad travel product with little thought to what their users need and want. This week's early-stage travel startups are tailored to fit individual travelers' needs, whether they are families trotting across the globe or vacation rental owners looking to streamline their bookings.
Please stow your tray tables: We're about to land in the '80s. Delta is taking a trip back in time with a totally awesome in-flight safety video that may actually convince you to turn off your electronics before departure. The video features some classic '80s pop culture stars like everyone's favorite alien, Alf, learning to navigate oxygen masks.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation on Thursday arrested five alleged mobsters on charges of racketeering, murder and, in the case of one man, a connection to a 1978 Lufthansa heist at John F. Kennedy International Airport that was immortalized in the Martin Scorsese film, Goodfellas. Vincent Asaro was charged with taking $1 million in jewelry and $5 million in cash from the airport's Lufthansa terminal.
You don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows, especially when it's blowing brutally off of Lake Michigan or the Long Island Sound. And this week is turning out to be brutal if you're trying to run an airline or use one to get from one place to another in the U.S. and Canada. From American Airlines' freezing equipment in Chicago, to Delta's skidding plane in New York, to JetBlue's complete shutdown across the Northeast, it's a terrible week to be flying.
An American Airlines flight en route from San Francisco to New York made an emergency landing in Kansas City after a potentially dangerous device -- later found out to be a camera -- was found taped to the inside of the airplane bathroom. The 767 plane was evacuated and searched, but the device turned out to be a harmless camera disguised as a flash drive.
Flight cancellations throughout the U.S. have reached 4,229 as of 5:45 p.m. ET Monday, according to Flightaware.com, and they continue to pile up amid a polar vortex whose frosty winds have caused temperatures to plummet all over America. Delays are nearing 12,000 for today, adding to the workload of airports that were already backed up due to flights grounded by Winter Storm Hercules over the weekend.
A polar vortex full of frigid Canadian air has locked up parts of the Midwest, forcing people from Minnesota to Chicago to St. Louis, Mo., to put their lives on hold while they wait out record-setting low temperatures. Though the cold front has sent a chill across the country, the center of America has taken the brunt of the blow as the freezing winds first cut into the U.S. from across the Great Lakes.
A private plane crashed at the Aspen/Pitkin County Airport Sunday, killing one passenger and injuring two others, a spokesperson for the Pitkin County Sheriff's Office confirmed to Mashable. The plane crashed onto the runway at 12:23 p.m. local time, according to Alex Burchetta, director of operations at the sheriff's office. Burchetta added that it is still unclear whether the three people onboard were airline crew or civilians.
As a winter storm battered the East Coast Thursday night into Friday morning, thousands of travelers were left stranded as flights were canceled. While customer service representatives in airports and on phones rebooked customers, those affected might also get help via Twitter. Airports in the Northeast closed down for several hours Friday morning. At the time of writing, both New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport, as had Boston's Logan International Airport, according to a Facebook post.

The Debt is a Post War thriller about three agents that went in search of a war criminal. The agents story wasn't quite as straight forward as originally expected!*The film flashes back from the 1990's to the 1960's. heres a great deal of suspense, some action and a great story with some unexpected twist. Its a very good film that keeps on the edge of your seat. Worth 5 stars for the gripping story.

'71 Camaro SS Tim Charette Warwick, RI
It's been an on-and-off project since 1992, so Tim Charette's had plenty of time to daydream about all the drives he wants to take in his Camaro. A fall foliage run on a country road, early morning coffee runs with the dog, taking his son to sports practice, hanging out at the Dairy Queen bs'ing with other car guys-you name it. Tim just wants to drive it. Thankfully it shouldn't be too much longer now; the bodywork is finished and the PPG Deltron basecoat/clearcoat blue should be laid on it by the time you read this.

For now she'll build the 350 that's currently in the car, but there is a tempting big-block in the garage that could get the nod down the road.

Uptown Residence Hall features suits, shared workspace, balconies, free laundry machines
CIA's first-year students are settling into brand new digs in the Uptown Residence Hall at the corner of Euclid Avenue and Ford Drive. The hall, built by acclaimed Cleveland developer MRN Ltd., accommodates 130 students, five residence hall advisors and one residence hall director. The majority of units are "quads," or suite-style living areas for four students with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a shared workroom and a kitchenette.
Matthew Smith, director of student life and housing, said a focus group of CIA students consulted on the design of the space. "From conversations with students, we knew that there were three things that were really important to them: air conditioning, private bathrooms instead of shared bathrooms, and larger workspaces. We were able to accommodate all three as each set of roommates share a bathroom, and the middle workspace is equipped with full-sized drafting tables for each student, and other work surfaces, to accommodate different types of projects."
The living arrangement prepares students for the atmosphere of collaboration they will know at CIA. It also places them within easy walking distance of their classes, studios, University Circle museums, shops, restaurants, grocery stores, and the Case Western Reserve University dining hall they use. In addition:

It took a decade for Kenner/Hasbro to lose the NBA licence, which Mattel eventually won. But by then, the damage had been done and the world was exposed to some pretty awful NBA merchandise.

Hi I am 33yr old mother of three children, I have had a vibrating in the pelvic area for almost a week now... I thought I was going insane when it first started... It felt like a cellphone vibration, although I have never carried one in my pocket. I had many things going through my head, for example part of an orgasm, or similar...I wondered if maybe my charkra was broken in that area (not that I know anything about that) but I was surprised to see your comments! this is more common than just me!!!
The vibrating seems to go for 2-3 seconds then stops for 2-3 seconds then goes again... it is like a pulse or rythmic hum... I cant seem to feel it with my hand on my body however it is an unmissible feeling inside my pelvic area.
I am not taking meds or contraceptive and I have never had my tubes tied.
I think I will visit the GP, just not sure what to say as it seems insane! I would like to just show him this thread...
Keep in touch with your stories... I will keep you posted also!

Food adventure @ Taxi Dining Room
Variations of the pork belly dish have been trending in Modern Australian and Asian/Asian-fusion restaurants alike, so needless to say, I've had more than my fair share of the dish. But there is one pork belly dish that stands out far above the rest, and that is Taxi Dining Room's version. Thoughts of visiting the restaurant had crossed my mind since early uni days, but the restaurant jumped up on my to-visit list as soon as I took a bite of their sticky pork belly at the Taste of Melbourne festival. It has haunted my taste buds since, and relief finally came after a recent visit to the restaurant with Meow Meow.
The restaurant's interior was extremely well-decorated and amongst the best I have encountered. It was modern, trendy and suave. The glowing blue shades of lighting provided a futuristic/under-the-sea vibe.
The surrounding floor-to-ceiling glass offered magnificent views of Flinder St, Federation Square, the Yarra River and South Bank.
Complimentary amuse bouche - Sichuan soup, with a dash of chilli oil.
We were offered a complimentary soup to get our appetites going, but it also served to warm us up on a chilly night. The flavours in the broth tasted quite rich, and was a cross between a slow-cooked beef stew and spicy mushroom Nong Shim noodles. The complimentary dish stood out as distinctive and hinted at what to expect with their menu: tasty dishes with flair and a 'Taxi Dining Room touch'.
Bread with chilli-salted butter.
Further evidence of TDR's penchant for bringing unique twists to the table was their chilli-salted butter. All eyes were on the butter and there were high expectations, but it turned out to be underwhelming. More salty than anything else, the chilli in the butter was very mild and difficult to detect. The subtle chilli component tasted like the flesh of chillies, minus the spiciness. Freshly-baked and served warm, I thoroughly enjoyed the bread.
Freshly shucked oyster & ponzu.
The oysters were perhaps a little teeny but the freshness and creaminess was immediately evident. The sour acidity of the lemon juice complemented the sharp sweetness from the ponzu sauce, and the combination did not overshadow the creamy oyster taste.
David Blackmore's Wagyu 9+ aburi, with a teriyaki glaze.
My newfound fondness for wagyu beef was rewarded with TDR's delicious take. It also made me mentally kick myself for how long it's taken me to jump on the beefwagon. Super tender, the beef melted as soon as it was in the mouth. The teriyaki glaze provided a sweetness that blended perfectly with the smoky and seared taste. The balanced wasabi presence, biting onion and herbs, and vinegary rice worked in unison with the beef to produce a combination of flavours that wowed the palate.
Ginger spiced steak tartare, with confit egg yolk & kombu salt.
If I thought the wagyu aburi melted in my mouth, then the tartare by comparison was figuratively already a puddle before I even took a bite. The texture was very tender, and had a very slight but perfect amount of chewy resistance. The potent ginger flavour and sriracha sauce added an Asian spin to the French dish. The sharpness from the sprinkle of onion mince and the seasoning on the flaky wonton skin provided distractions to balance out with the strong ginger flavour. The dish could have done with one or two additional pieces of wonton skins, but we were happy to eat the rest of the tartare by the spoonful.
Sticky pork, seared scallops & red chilli dressing.
Aaaah, we finally meet again porky belly… Given the extent of how much the pork belly blew away my taste buds during the Taste of Melbourne festival, it was only a matter of time before I would encounter it again. In other words, it was a must-order dish. There was a possibility that the dish would pale in comparison to that first memory, but the second encounter was every bit as amazing as the first. Perfectly cooked, the pork was succulent and practically fell apart when cut into or bitten. The surfaces of the meat and the skin were crispy with a soft crunch. The scallops were firm and tender, bringing added refinement to a dish that was already perfect. The accompanying papaya salad was sweet, sour, subtly spicy and crunchy, tying in with the meatier elements on the dish p… perfectly. There goes that 'p' word again!
Crispy duck - with pumpkin daikon salad & 5 spice caramel.
The duck was well-cooked and thanks to the 5 spice flavour, the meat tasted very similar to the ducks that can be bought from Asian restaurants. Based on previous encounters with the duck+orange combination, it wasn't surprising that the bursts of juicy and citrusy sweetness paired well with the meat. I was quite intrigued by the pumpkin when I first read the dish's description, but thought its taste was masked by the stronger sweet and sour dressing. The salad was noticeably lacking in crunchiness thanks to the replacement of carrots with pumpkin.
Roasted Atlantic salmon - with yabbie dumplings, white onion puree & shellfish dressing.
The extent of cooking was consistent across the entire piece of salmon, with crispy skin and soft flesh. We had unfortunately left the dish for too long (my bad, I was too camera-happy), so the pasta/dumpling skin had not only lost its delicate silkiness, but was also a little gluggy in texture. The salted and peppery minced yabby at least tasted fine. Fennel and dill commonly appear side by side with salmon, so the combo definitely works. But in TDR's dish, the flavours in the fennel salad soon faded after taking a bite to give way to the underlying sweet and sour Asian flavours of the shellfish dressing. While too sweet on its own, the onion puree worked well with the savouriness of the salmon and dumplings.
Complimentary palate cleanser - fennel and yoghurt sorbet, with fig and candied fennel leaves.
The yoghurt sorbet was creamy and consistently silky smooth in texture. The slight fennel taste detected amongst the delightful sourness and sweetness of sorbet resulted in a refreshing flavour that cleansed the palate indeed. The sugary crunch, dryness of the fennel leaves and biscuit crumb added much enhancement to both the flavours and textures present in the dish. We both enjoyed the cleanser, and had it been offered on their dessert menu, we would have happily ordered more.
Yuzu and white chocolate souffle - with mandarin and sake sorbet.
*Note: this dessert was part of their specials on the night.
It's surprising how much of the citrusy yuzu taste was captured in the airy and foamy souffle, hitting the palate hard as soon as a 'bite' was taken. The citrus was very sharp, acidic and slightly bitter. There was no sign of white chocolate detectable other than from the whiteness of the souffle. The citrus flavour in the sorbet was milder compared to the souffle and tasted quite refreshing. I'm not the biggest fan of tart desserts, and so I found the spoonful of mandarin+sake sorbet more enjoyable. The tiny piece of freeze-dried mandarin that topped off the sorbet possessed a strong burst of sweet juiciness.
Complimentary chocolate macarons.
These adorable macarons were tinier than the average macaron, but the chocolate taste and delicate+chewy texture was spot on.
From the ambience of the restaurant, down to the wonderful service from the wait staff, all aspects of our dining experience at TDR rated very highly. The ingredients and flavours in each dish were well thought out and truly embraced the spirit of Modern-Asian cuisine. Bonus points came in the form of the exquisite presentation. I should probably add that while I did end up satisfying those pork belly cravings, they're slowly starting to resurface again, along with cravings for that wagyu aburi and steak tartare. I suspect a future visit is imminent…

**I am using it for the anti-aging benefits - not for acne.**
My skin type: I never ever had any problems with acne. Just a couple of zits here and there - hormonally-based, I believe. My skin is definitely not oily but, not necessarily "dry" either - except sometimes in the winter. I am very fair-skinned and have not aged well, despite only being in my early 30s and always wearing sunscreen. I blame the fair skin!! So, I figured I would give this a whirl.
So, I have tried Retinol in the past and it really was just too much for my skin. My dermatologist started me on the .02 and said I should use it every other night until they could work me up to the .05 and eventually they'd have me on the .1.
Using only the .02 every other day, with plenty of moisturizing in between applications, it seemed to be working okay. After a while they moved me up to the .05 - they suggested that I do the .02 some days and ease into the .05. I did this and I immediately have a negative reaction to it. I actually ended up with dry crustiness that HURT. It was like I had a BAD windburn and it was so tight and crusty. Parts of my face actually had to heal from a scabbiness!
They suggested I drop it down to 2-3 night a week. So, I tried that. Then they suggested I drop the .05 altogether and just stay with the .02 and now my skin won't even tolerate that!! Not even in humid weather.
My skin is just far too sensitive and dry, I guess. But, it WAS working very well until I tried to increase it by introducing the .05. - And some people use the .1 with NO PROBLEMS! I cannot imagine!
Anyway - So, I had to just give up entirely on the whole thing. Until I found the Retin-A micro cream!! I started using it recently - it's the .04 (they also have a .1) and, yes, it DOES dry my skin out in a major way, and it feels a little bit "burny" and tight but nothing intolerable... but the next morning I will wash my face with a moisturizing wash (vitamin E "gentle scrub" or something similar... no "acne" washes or anything harsh!) and it sort of scrubs away the visible dry skin. Then, I will apply a toner and a serum (both dermalogica for "normal" skin)... followed by my moisturizer and my face looks excellent!!!
I have found that washing my face with a gentle soap in the morning and moisturizing very well for the daytime helps a lot! Then, before bed, I will rinse my face with warm water ONLY and use wipes to take off my eye makeup. I will then apply the Retin-A Micro gel lightly, all over my face (away from the skin around my eyes and my lips). I use something different on the skin around my eyes that has worked wonders, if any one is curious, feel free to message me.
I have done this every night! not just every other, or 2-3 days a week... and it's working fantastically without problems like I had with the regular Retinol.
I also found it at and EXTREMELY good price - in case anyone else wants to try it just send me a message :) And yes, it is the Rx kind, not the OTC kind - those do not work at all.
So, LONG story short - Retin-A Micro seems to be a much better option for people with sensitive/dry skin. My skin looks and feels awesome! My pores have reduced in size, my skin feels so smooth!! The wrinkles have diminished somewhat - but, I've only just started using it... I have high hopes!
I Think I Finally Found a Way to Make This Work For Me! -Philadelphia, PA

Hi, thank you for your review! I hope you can share with me where you get it cheaper :) and also I was using Retin A micro cream for about 2 months not for acne. I'm 32 and just started to see the signs of aging so I was hoping to slow this process down with Retin A :) During those 2 months I had small bumps on my forehead ( not really pimples) but I never had this before and still no improvement :( I was thinking about dropping the treatment...I don't know if I should continue... I feel like my skin is going in sicles Have you had a problem like that? I have the same skin type. Do you applying Retin a on the forehead only? I hope you going to answer to me and go into details as much as you can please :) Thank you very much!
Thanks so much for sharing your story!! So glad you found something that works for you, I can imagine having fair skin you have to be very gentle with any treatment, would you say you are a skin type 1 or 2
1 - Light, pale light
2 - White, fair
1 - Light, pale light
2 - White, fair
Hi Eva! Sorry it took me a bit to get back to you. Its hard to say, actually. I know that's weird, but I took one of those quizzes on the skincancer.org web site and it said I have skin type 3 (barely). This is only because, despite the fact that I am very fair (and red-headed), I have almost no freckles at all and I rarely burn. I do have very sensitive skin, though, when it comes to getting rashes. Just about everything gives me a rash! So, I was nervous when I began, but so far so good. Are you fair-skinned as well?
Since this is regarding my experience post-dermatologist, something I discovered on my on, there is no purpose in mentioning my doctor's name.

The DilemmaRoslyn and Daniel Ceniceros love to stay active outside, but when it's time to unwind inside, they like to hang out in their media room. It's a great spot for watching movies, and Daniel likes to deejay in the space when they entertain. They'd like the room to be more stylish and inviting, so the Design on a Dime team signs on to make it happen.
The light-colored walls in the space make it seem cold and empty. The room needs moody lighting and a way to camouflage awkwardly-placed electrical outlets. There should also be a cocktail table for drinks and snacks as well as art and accessories to give the space style. Daniel has some sports collectibles he'd like to display, but Roslyn doesn't want the room to end up looking like a sports bar.
The SolutionCamel-colored walls will warm up the space, and a cocktail table-ottoman solution will offer a spot for snacks. Daniel's sports memorabilia will get a display cabinet that doesn't compromise the room's style. His deejay components will get a custom cabinet to make them easily and stylishly accessible. Here's how the team gets it done.
Display CaseThe wooden case is finished in a rich stain, and its simple lines are in keeping with the hip, modern look of the space.
Equipment StorageThe sleek unit is stained a rich brown color and will keep the system organized and ready for a party.

Once again North Korea is back in the news, and this time it did not secure global headlines by testing a nuclear device or threatening to turn Seoul/Tokyo/Washington into a sea of fire.

Henry Wendt Chair in Political Economy Nicholas Eberstadt discusses why birth and marriage rates are plunging throughout the Muslim world.
The steady slowdown in world population growth in recent decades has dimmed interest in what was once called "the population question." But now concern, even alarm, about global population growth may have been reawakened by a widely publicized new study in the journal Science, which predicts that the world population could reach 12.3 billion people by the end of this century.
Is the human condition becoming more unequal? Many assert it is, but their focus is almost exclusively on economic inequality. This is problematic. Income is not the only important measure of human well-being and life chances. Consider two global revolutions that are improving the human condition and making it more equal: Life expectancy and educational attainment.
Few hard facts are available in the outside world on the economy of North Korea. Consequently, analyses of the DPRK economy often take place in a sort of data-free vacuum. There is, however, one relatively reliable source for an aspect of North Korean economic performance, and its data suggest that the DPRK is more dependent upon politically supported trade today than it has been for decades.

Once upon a time in America, grown men were expected to work a job, women were expected to stay home with the kids, and families were expected to cover expenses with their own earnings. This was the land for which the "unemployment rate" was invented, which was a pretty good tool for measuring the problem of workless-ness in that long-forgotten America. But we don't live in that country any more.

Two percent company rate cut will do little to improve Australian competitiveness, says DeloitteDOWNLOAD
Sunday, 2 May 2010: The underwhelming announcement of a 2% reduction in the company tax rate over two years from 2013 will do little to attract foreign investment into Australia, according to Deloitte International Tax Partner, Peter Madden.
"If the Government had accepted the Henry Review's recommendation to move to a 25% corporate tax rate over the medium term, it would have assisted Australian-based companies to remain competitive on a global scale," Mr Madden said.
"Instead, the government has opted only to reduce the company tax rate from 30% to 29% in 2013 and then to 28% in 2014, which leaves Australia above the average corporate tax rate in the Asia Pacific region.
"The proposed rate cuts of only 2% will leave Australian companies paying more in taxes than our Asian competitors.
"The Government and Dr Henry acknowledges its own commercial imperative to make Australia a more attractive place to invest with an internationally competitive tax rate yet has compromised on this imperative," Mr Madden concluded.

The facilities are spotless, with push button showers and the site is well kept. The dog walk on site is only a toilet area really, but, as there is direct access to a vast network of paths and woodland direct from the site,this isn't a problem.

Ask Judy: How many hours in a school day?
Dear Judy,
I know that kids are required to go to school a certain amount of hours and days. Can you tell me how many hours of school are required and if they are different at different grades?
Dear Mary,
Your question opens a complex set of issues – bound up in state law and regulations, allocation of state aid and New York City's own variations, developed with the United Federation of Teachers and codified in their contract.
Students in New York state are required to attend school from age six. (In NYC the age is five, except that parents can choose to opt out of kindergarten and start their six year olds in 1st grade instead.)
When figuring out the length of the school day and hours of instruction, keep in mind that state laws define minimum hours. Increased number of days and hours are allowed, provided that the union agrees. Charter schools are not bound by these rules, indeed most charters have extended instruction time, and many non-charter public schools do as well.
College Counselor: Are college fairs worth it?
Q: Is there any point in going to a college fair? I went to the NACAC fair held last week at the Jacob Javits Center in Manhattan. My friends and I waited on line for half an hour just to get in! Then there were hundreds of booths, and huge crowds, and colleges I'd never heard of. The colleges I had heard of had lots of people crowded around so you couldn't really get to talk to the reps. I got a lot of brochures, but don't feel I gained any in-depth knowledge about the schools.
A: There are many types of college fairs, and the one you went to is not designed to provide "in-depth knowledge" but rather to give a huge array of colleges and universities exposure in a large urban market. That is why these large NACAC fairs are held in major cities across the country. For most students, this will be their first exposure to the many possibilities out there in the word of higher education. It's a good place to start, to browse, and get a general idea. So the purpose of this was to 1) provide publicity for the colleges and 2) to get students to write, go to the website or visit for more information.

Still looking for a free summer program for your teen? The Long Island University campus in Brooklyn has several programs that still have space, including one for budding accountants, another on college readiness, a third for artistic kids who will learn to draw and paint from professional artists and a fourth for coursework and class trips on writing, speaking, critical thinking, research and creativity. The Fort Greene-Clinton Hill Patch gives a rundown, including contact information for each program. Deadlines have been extended until June.
High School Hustle: Who is failing gym?
When report cards arrive, vigilant parents turn immediately to what could be a confounding and heart-stopping grade in a subject with no bearing on academic averages: Gym.
That's right, gym, also known as physical education or PE. At least a dozen high school seniors I know are either failing it, coming close or getting lackluster marks like 70. And some of these are terrific students, headed to top colleges.
Can schools please stop giving out grades in gym?
I agree that if students repeatedly don't show up to gym class, they shouldn't pass. I also understand the frustration gym teachers must have when kids show up for gym in impossibly tight skinny jeans or skimpy dresses and platform shoes.
Special needs kid thrives at Talent Unlimited
Fourteen-year-old Marc Brandon Gross, is what's called a "2E," or twice-exceptional, child: he is a talented singer, dancer and actor who can memorize a script in two days that would take most people two weeks to learn, says his mother Maria Gross. But Marc has trouble communicating and socializing because he is on the autism spectrum.
Marc is thriving as a freshman Talent Unlimited High School -- a sign that children with special needs can be successfully integrated into the city's selective high schools. "They bend over backwards to make sure his needs are met," says Gross.
While Marc should be a poster child for the Department of Education's new push to enroll more special needs children at the city's selective high schools, his mother is angry that the city is bending the rules for admission to schools like his. Marc passed the demanding audition for the musical theater program last year, but some of the students admitted this year did not.
"That's not right. It's not fair, especially not fair to my kid" who played by the rules, Gross says. At Talent Unlimited, more than 45 students (including 13 special needs students) were admitted who either did not audition or didn't meet the school's audition standards.
Gross contacted Insideschools to tell Marc's story after hearing that the city placed more than 1,300 students in 71 of the city's selective high schools as part of a double-pronged effort to match more students to their round one high school picks and to ensure that schools meet the city's new special education quotas.
Marc has speech and language disabilities as well as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The school offers intensive support: he is in team-teaching classes with two teachers, one of whom is certified in special education. He gets extra help in math and English. The school also provides after-school academic tutoring. The guidance counselor arranged a special peer support group to help Marc work on his socializing skills.
Marc's family expected him to attend high school at School for Language and Communication Development (SLCD), the school for special needs children where he went from kindergarten through 8th grade. But a guidance counselor at SLCD suggested he try out for a public performing arts high schools.
Just like thousands of other aspiring performing artists, Marc practiced for weeks and attended rounds of auditions to try out for four of the city's audition schools: Talent Unlimited, Frank Sinatra, Professional Performing Arts School and LaGuardia. All four schools require auditions for entrance but do not have academic screens. Yet, this year DOE officials said the city assigned students to both Talent Unlimited and Frank Sinatra based on test scores, rather than artistic ability.
Competition at the city's performing arts schools is fierce; 1,500 students typically audition for 125 seats at Talent Unlimited.
Gross is proud to say her son went through the "appropriate channels of auditioning," and was awarded a seat. And now Gross is concerned that the admission of dozens of students who did not meet Talent Unlimited's audition standards – or did not even try out – will compromise the integrity of the program.
Because of his IEP, Marc still struggles academically, Gross says, but he is excited to get up and go to school everyday. "My kid loves the school because everyone is at his level. They can sing, they can dance, and they can act."

Selective schools forced to take special ed kids
The Department of Education is forcing most of the city's selective high schools to accept a certain percentage of special needs students, even, in some cases, if they don't meet the eligibility requirements. Both general and special education students were assigned to top performing arts programs even though they didn't audition, infuriating some parents whose children did.
Beacon High School, Eleanor Roosevelt High School, Professional Performing Arts are among the selective schools that have been assigned special needs students outside the regular admissions process, school officials said; Frank Sinatra High School and Talented Unlimited were among the selective schools that have been assigned general education students as well.
In all, the Department of Education has assigned students not chosen by the schools to about 70 different screened programs for the 2013-14 academic year, said Marc Sternberg, senior deputy chancellor for strategy and policy. Sternberg said most of these programs were assigned special needs children; a few schools with unfilled seats were also assigned general education students. In a follow-up story, the New York Post reported: "about 960 general-ed kids and 300 special-ed students were assigned," to 71 schools.
This policy is part of an effort to give children with disabilities more access to demanding academic and arts programs and to ensure that screened schools get the "right number" of students, said Sternberg.
"This is about equity and access," Sternberg said in a telephone interview. "We want to make sure that all students across the spectrum have access to these very fine schools."
Ask Judy: How to prepare for 9th grade?
Dear Judy: My son was accepted to Beacon High School. He is very happy and is already making plans as to what he will do at the new school. I don't come from the U.S. and my question is: Is it a good school? How can I help him prepare for his first year? He doesn't know yet what profession he wants to pursue when he goes to college.
Spanish-speaking dad
Dear Dad:
I am glad to hear that your son is pleased with his high school placement. Beacon is a very good school and it will prepare him well for university studies. Universities in the United States do not require students to choose what they will focus on until they are well into the second year of the four years they will spend there. High school years can be used for exploring many subjects and possible careers. That's why, to graduate, students must earn 44 credits for academic courses in math, science, social studies, English, a non-English language, art, music and physical education. Beacon is a member of the New York Performance Standards Consortium, and, as such students are exempt from taking most state exams called Regents. Instead, course credits are based on detailed projects called portfolios which students present to their teachers and peers.
Beacon graduation requirements are online. You can compare these to the city's Department of Education requirements listed on the website. And, when the time comes, there is a very helpful guide to preparing your child for college: Your Children Can Go to College...Yes They Can!" [PDF] which was developed by the New York Immigration Coalition. It's available in English and Spanish.
But, right now, turn your attention to helping your child prepare for entering 9th grade in September. Like many city high schools, Beacon will have a summer orientation, where your son will visit the school, get any summer assignments and suggestions as to how to prepare for 9th grade. There may be a reading or writing assignment. There he will also meet other 9th graders. If your son is to travel to school via public transportation, help him learn the route and practice the trip. He should time the door to door travel during early morning --when getting there on time is so important. The school may be able to help you get in touch with other students traveling from your neighborhood.
Finally, as summer winds down, try encourage him to follow a sleep schedule that he will need to arrive at school ready to learn.
Good luck to your son for a great high school experience.
Ask Judy: Which high school should I choose?
My inbox has been flooded with questions about high school acceptances since 8th graders must decide by April 12 what high school offer to accept, or which school to apply to in Round 2. I've received several questions from families of students who were accepted by specialized high schools in addition to another school; others from parents who wonder why their children did not make the cut. This week I'll answer three of them.
Q: We have a dilemma, my daughter is now in Hunter and can continue there for high school. But she also got into Stuyvesant. Hunter is a long commute, Stuy is close to home; Hunter is smaller, less competitive and she has friends there. Stuy is stronger in Science, which is her strength. It also has a range of extra curricular activities that Hunter cannot match. Would it be folly to leave Hunter for a larger, less personal school?
You have a happy dilemma, and you have certainly laid out the pros and cons. It is really up to you and your daughter to make the decision. Have you been to see Stuyvesant? Did you get a good feeling about the atmosphere , kids, and teachers there? Are there any other kids your daughter knows going too? Keep in mind that students at large schools -- such as Stuyvesant -- often find their own community of frends and supportive faculty that make it seem smaller-- whether in sports, the math club, or SING. Yet, many families in 6-12 schools find it's easier just to stay put!
Apply by March 27 to serve on CEC
Parents can submit an application to serve on one of the city's 32 district community education councils or the citywide high school, special education, District 75 and English LanguageLearners councils, through March 27.
Here's the information from the Department of Education.
Education Councils are education policy advisory bodies responsible for reviewing and evaluating schools' instructional programs, in some cases approving zoning lines, and advising the Chancellor. Education Councils play an essential role in shaping education policies for the New York City public schools. Each council consists of nine elected parent volunteers who provide hands-on leadership and support for their community's public schools. Council members hold meetings at least every month with the superintendent and public at-large to discuss the current state of the schools in the district.
Community councils represent students in grades K-8 in 32 education districts. The four Citywide councils include the Citywide Council on High Schools, Citywide Council on English Language Learners, Citywide Council on Special Education, and the District 75 Citywide Council. The chance to run for a seat on one of the 36 Community or Citywide Education Councils only happens once every two years and parents are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity to support their schools. For more information on the roles and responsibilities of Councils and to learn how to apply for a Council seat, visit NYCParentLeaders.org. The Frequently Asked Questions section provides brief answers to common questions. Parents can also call the Division of Family and Community Engagement at 212-374-4118.
The application period, which began on February 13, has been extended! The new deadline is March 27, 2013. Parents interested in applying to serve on a Citywide or Community Education Council can apply online or submit a paper application:
Apply online at www.NYCParentLeaders.org now until 11:59 p.m. on March 27.
- Download paper applications at the DOE's website or www.NYCParentLeaders.org and postmark by 11:59 p.m. on March 27.

The MUSIC Project
artist view, designed by Muriel Pagès
MUSIC (Mitigation in Urban areas: Solutions for Innovative Cities) is an Interreg cooperation project aimed to catalyse and mainstream carbon and energy reduction in the urban context. In five cities, temporally innovation networks were formed to create a strategic perspective on the transition to a low-carbon future and give an impulse for local change. In parallel, a Geospatial Urban Energy Information was set up to support scenario building and decision making.
The CO2 reduction challenge
The European Union aims to decrease CO2 emissions with 20% in 2020. Cities play a leading role in reaching this objective. The Co2 reduction challenges cities face are mainly institutional and organisational: How can policy be translated into concrete and innovative projects? How can all stakeholders formulate one vision for a sustainable city? What role should companies, research institutes and the government play? How can urban citizens be involved? To answer these questions, we need a transition from traditional to innovative ways of cooperation with regard to sustainability in the build environment.
A transition to sustainable urban planning
In MUSIC, all cities will go through a transition process aiming to make CO2 reduction an integral part of urban planning processes. The MUSIC cities will use the transition management method developed by DRIFT to guide this process. This method includes a series of workshops with several stakeholders (businesses, government, research institutes, citizens) resulting in a local sustainability vision and action plan. Besides, new GIS instruments for energy planning will be developed to be integrated in urban planning.
The local action plans and energy planning tools will be tested in pilot projects.
International inspiration!
The MUSIC partners will meet twice a year to share their knowledge and experience. Besides, the partners will develop a lobby strategy to put the role cities have in CO2 reduction higher on the European agenda.
You can download the MUSIC project brochure here.
MUSIC Landscape "Sustainable Future" by Jean Klare. The map shows the transition to a sustainable future.
The contents of the map have been determined by the MUSIC partners during the Kick Off Meeting in Rotterdam in November 2010.

Title: Red Maple (Acer rubrum L.) Growth and Foliar Nutrient Responses to Soil Fertility Level and Water Regime
Author: Pham, C. H.; Halverson, Howard G.; Heisler, Gordon M.
Year: 1978
Publication: Res. Pap. NE-412. Broomall, PA: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Northeastern Forest Experiment Station. 7p.
Key Words:
Abstract: Red maple (Acer rubrum L.) seedlings were grown in a greenhouse using three treatments: two soil horizons, two soil moisture regimes, and three nutrient levels. Fertilization increased growth under moist conditions on the more fertile topsoil. Under dry conditions, fertilization had no effect on growth in subsoil, and slightly increased growth in topsoil. Without fertilization, growth was greater in the moist topsoil. Growth was most balanced when available soil N was 25 ppm, P was 25 to 75 ppm, and K was 75 to 100 ppm. Multiple regression equations relating growth to foliar nutrients were significantly different only for the subsoil.
