Lorde was spotted arriving at LAX on Wednesday where she will be performing at the 56th Annual Grammy Awards this Sunday.
The 16-year-old "Royals" singer was wearing a dark blue animal print dress and sunglasses.
Lorde is nominated for record of the year and song of the year for "Royals". She said, "To be honest I'm not gonna be too stressed if I don't come home with anything. It would be super awesome to win a Grammy, I mean it would probably be the craziest thing that will ever happen to me if it happens, but it definitely won't cheapen or make less anything I've achieved."

The religious right's sectarian future?
Is the religious right becoming sectarian? That was the question I found myself asking after Paul Weyrich, one of the founding fathers of the Moral Majority, recently called on Christians to "drop out" of American culture. "I believe that we have probably lost the culture war," Weyrich lamented.
Granger Westberg
In the early 1960s Granger Westberg gave a sermon on grief at Rockefeller Chapel at the University of Chicago. The response from listeners indicated that it was something more than the usual sermon.
What churches can do
The saints are in retreat. Faced by what they consider moral as well as academic breakdown, some evangelical leaders are calling on Christians to withdraw their children from public schools and place them in private religious academies--or better yet--teach them at home. "Exodus 2000," they call it. And for those who miss the exodus, they have a backup plan: "Rescue 2010."
The religious debate
Do christian leaders have anything distinctive to say--or avoid saying--about the scandal in the White House and the impeachment of Bill Clinton? Though the issue is less pressing now that judgment day has come and gone in the U.S.
We were walking up to our third-floor apartment when an elderly neighbor opened her door. "I heard you come in last night," she said. We were distressed, and said we were sorry to have disturbed her. She shook her head at our apologies. "You don't disturb me. I just don't sleep well until I hear you come in at night, and know you're safe."* * *

ANZAC day
Started by yabbadabbadoo , Apr 13 2012 12:44 AM
27 replies to this topic
Posted 13 April 2012 - 12:44 AM
Just wondering what you normally do on ANZAC day? We don"t normally do anything much, unless it is a long weekend and we are away. One of DS's friend's parents was talking about having his birthday party that day and I couldn't decide if I thought it was inappropriate or nor. I guess I would've ok with it in the afternoon, but perhaps not so ok with it if it was in the morning. Do you have strong feelings about ANZAC day?
Posted 13 April 2012 - 12:53 AM
I don't find it inappropriate at all. Presumably they're not planning to hold it during the dawn service. None of the ex-servicemen in my family would even blink at the idea.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 01:03 AM
I think that's fine, though preferably in the afternoon (as the services / parades are in the morning, and gives people a chance to visit the cemetery etc). Around here the shops open at Midday I think, so I guess after that anything goes
Posted 13 April 2012 - 01:51 AM
I'm going interstate to watch my dad march in the parade.
then we'll probably find ourselves drunk by lunchtime on the
RAAF base that I grew up on.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 02:59 AM
It's my DD1's 7th birthday so we are going ten pin bowling with a few school friends and family
Posted 13 April 2012 - 06:50 AM
Fine for the afternoon.
I know a lot of people go to the parades with kids, which I think is important but there's no reason not to get together with friends too.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 07:08 AM
I don't find it disrespectful, though I can understand why some do, and I do have a lot of respect for the diggers.
We always find a game of 2up on ANZAC day... its fun and a nice way to soak up some of the vibe
Posted 13 April 2012 - 07:38 AM
We normally attend a bit of a family reunion and participate in a dawn service and march. This year we'll be staying at home as DS isn't up for the travel (7 hour drive), although we may be going to a friend's place for a catch up BBQ.
In future years we'll be continuing with this family tradition, and one year when DS is older we'll probably stay in Sydney and attend the service in Martin Place
I don't think having a birthday party is disrespectful, and my grandfather was a WWII veteran and attended the big march in Sydney every year until he was physically unable. I know a lot of people who treat ANZAC day as just another public holiday and a great excuse to start their drinking in the morning - I find that far more disrespectful
Posted 13 April 2012 - 08:55 AM
I always go to the dawn service.
I spend the day doing whatever I want to, and enjoying the freedoms all the vets fought to give us. I raise a glass to the fallen, the wounded, and the safely returned.
And I am also a great granddaughter of a vet who went through hell, and daughter of a Vietnam vet who won't talk about it. Ever. And I'm ex military myself.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 09:00 AM
QUOTE (Sassy Girl @ 13/04/2012, 06:58 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
I do find it inappropriate and disrespectful then again I am the Grand Daughter of a veteran that was lucky enough to survive being a POW on the Burma Thai Railway and also Changi.
It's hardly the child's fault that their birthday is on Anzac Day. It's like saying we shouldn't allow people who's birthdays coincide with Easter celebrate as it's disrespectful to Jesus.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 09:06 AM
Growing up we always went to the Dawn Service and then spent the day at the barracks (my Dad was a Solidier). Nowadays my DH will always go to the dawn service and I will too depending on the kids and stuff and that is about it. Usually watch the broadcasts on TV. This year we were thinking about taking the kids in to see the parade in the city.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 09:06 AM
If it's in the afternoon then it would be ok.
As PP have said, Dawn service & the parades are all held in the morning.
My dad is a vietnam vet as well & he refuses to acknowledge the day, yet his father (who served in WWII) & my mothers grandfather (served in WWI) would always celebrate the day with their mates from their unit at their local RSL.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 09:08 AM
At least Easter moves so it's not on your birthday every year....(spoken as one who finds the years her birthday is on Good Friday particularly annoying!)
I spend ANZAC day steadfastly ignoring all observances. In the last several years I've often worked (although, for those who are frowning at the shops opening, note that I'm not in retail!). But I don't know that I'd hold a party - my choice not to observe the day is my choice; I wouldn't want to impinge on something important to others.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 09:18 AM
I don't find it disrespectful.
I do like to reflect on ANZAC day about how horrific and horrible war is and mourn the loss of those that were killed (Australians, Turks, everyone) but I wouldn't see a problem with going to a party, especially in the afternoon.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 09:31 AM
DH always does dawn service and or the march. The kids also attend either with him as well.
There is always a party to attend each year as there is an Anzac birthday in our family, but we do it as dinner so that we can observe and remember in the mornings.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 09:37 AM
It's hardly the child's fault that their birthday is on Anzac Day
DS and I celebrate our Anzac Day birthdays together every year on the actual day.

Yep, this is me. I watch the dawn service or attend one if my Dad is in the state with me. I then have a big cry during the Last Post (gets to me every time) and then I spend the day thinking of everything my Dad and Grandfather went through and how lucky I am that I didn't have to watch any of my brothers/friends go off to war and never return when we were in our early 20's.
My Dad, however, is very vocal about his Viet Nam experience. He's even written several books on the subject. It's interesting how different people cope.

DH always watches the AFL since they always have an ANZAC day match. I'll probably sit around the house enjoying the fact I'm not at work. I might leave DD with DH and use the afternoon as an excuse to get some clothes shopping done without her around to 'help'.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 09:54 AM
We don't do anything in particular regarding Anzac day. We do talk about it, will turn the parades on and talk to the girls about it. The school always does an Anzac service at school on the nearest school day, so the girls know about it.
The party .. wouldn't bother me at all, as long as it is in the afternoon. Why would it be disrespectful to spend time in the afternoon enjoying those freedoms that our servicemen and women fight to protect.

We tend to stay at home because DP always ends up being abused (He is Asian) and now that we have DS I really don't want my family exposed to that. So I would have no problem with a birthday party because apart from when we went to Gallipoli ANZAC day has always been about racism for us so we tend not to observe it anyway.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 11:08 AM
We go to the march, then do brunch, then the footy!! I love ANZAC day. It's always great seeing so many people out supporting our servicemen and women.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 11:19 AM
We'll be off to the dawn service in Kings Park, then probably home for sleeps and food. Dinner will probably be at mums, and it will be full of all things delicious.

Wow I'm so sorry your family experiences this. Some poeple are such ignorant twats!
To me ANZAC day is a day of commemoration for the soldiers and to me that means all soldiers, no matter where they came from, who lost their lives and/or saw and experienced horrors they shouldn't have.

Does this sort of crap really still happen??? Half of the people I served with were of Asian or other non Caucasian ancestry. That's pathetic. I'm so sorry.

you are not crazy...
I have contemplated many of the things you mention and I reach the same conclusion.
I believe we have a puppet government and a secret government.
I believe everything we have been told is a lie.
I believe the whole narrative of our daily experience is a charade or a facade...it isn't what is really going on.
I believe every major event in the world is cloaked in a black op.
I believe 4000 or so people rule the world and they are not friendlies.
I believe 911 was a staged event and I beliecve there is much more to come.

Jun 6, 2013Surprised at how much I actually enjoyed this show. Found it quite enjoyable. Hope the rest of the season follows the pilot's formula. Some may find it to be another cop show but like I said I was quite surprised, I didn't expect it to grab my attention so much.… Full Review »
Jun 25, 2013Okay, you can't deny it, the trailer was awesome. I think if you give it time, Graceland will grow to become an amazing show. Right now, you can already see all the negative reviews. What Graceland lacks is a special something. A special something that defines the show. And by special something, I mean the story line, characters, and everything about it is a bit dry. There isn't that much humor. Okay, well you might say that humor isn't what a drama is for. Then, I will tell you that there isn't enough drama to make up for that. This show is slow moving too, that's why I say the show has a good chance to grow. The concept is a very good idea though.… Full Review »
Jun 11, 2013At no point in the pilot episode, do you feel like you should be feeling anything for these characters, characters who all seem miscast, belonging more on a daytime soap. Even the leader Briggs, never comes across as even resembling an FBI officer in real life. It's too formulaic, badly written and definitely should be avoided.… Full Review »

WALKERTON— What's gotten into the Lions?
First No. 2 Jimtown and now No. 8 John Glenn.
Bremen responded time and again in a nip-tuck Northern State Conference game at Glenn Friday, earning its second straight victory over a ranked Class 3A squad and keeping a four-game win streak alive while spoiling Senior Night and the Falcons' bid for their first NSC title in 30 years.
Bremen junior quarterback Nate Leeper hooked up with Ben Hueni for a 26-yard touchdown strike — their second scoring connection and fourth overall of the night — with 5 minutes left on the game clock, and the Lions' defense held off the home team for the 33-28 victory.
"The kids played well, all the credit goes to them," said Bremen head football coach Bob Holmes. "We were put in some very adverse situations, and every time we needed to perform, the kids stepped up, did a great job and got it done. It's just an outstanding job."
"We gave up too many big plays tonight... and a lot of things went their way tonight, and they capitalized on it," said Glenn head coach Justin Bogunia. "I just didn't think we had enough things go our way today on calls or plays."

Industry leading vendors and operators come together to demonstrate next generation mobile technologies
San Diego, CA - February 13, 2013 - The Open Mobile Alliance (OMA) will showcase unique demonstrations from Huawei and Telecom Italia, amongst others, in a four-hour session at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. Recently announced, the event will take place on 27 February in the Theater District, Hall 8.0, Theater C of the Fira Gran Via.
With presentations and demonstrations from some of the industry's leading vendors and operators, attendees are sure to gain an exclusive preview into up and coming technologies, across the entire wireless value chain, some of which are not yet commercially available.
Augmented reality will be addressed by Huawei and Telecom Italia, both showcasing the OMA MobAR (Mobile Augmented Reality) Enabler. Huawei will be showing its Smart Life software, which provides users with information in a 3D mode, using cameras rather than keywords to search and find what they need. Telecom Italia will demonstrate its Augmented Reality app receiving information and content based on geo-location information and user preferences from a server in the network, which can be displayed in real-time camera-view on the device.
Telecom Italia will also be addressing social media and will show how users belonging to different social media networks can interact, exchange activities and see reactions using federated mobile social networks, while keeping control over where their social data is used. Some extra features will also be presented, showing how proximity technologies such as mobile smart-codes or NFC can be used to trigger interaction between users. This demo will be based on the OMA SNeW (Social Network Web) Enabler.
Huawei will exhibit the OMA UVE (Unified Virtual Experience) Enabler for multi-screen sharing, through LiveShare. Currently not commercially available, this solution enables users to share content and screen views across devices including smartphones, tablets and smart TVs, as well communicating simultaneously with others.
In support of the OMA draft standard VirMO (Virtualization Management Object), Red Bend Software will show how different entities can manage each virtualized OS on a dual-persona smartphone used for BYOD (Bring Your Own Device). Using OMA DM-based management infrastructure, mobile operators can manage the consumer's personal phone, while enterprise IT administrators can manage the consumer's work phone.
Gemalto will be demonstrating its Device Management Expert, enabling telecom operators to reduce costs and stimulate data usage, by being able to standardize configuration and manage settings and application downloads on Android smartphones.
M2M will be a hot topic as the mobile industry looks at the growth of M2M device connections. This will be reflected in a session by Telecom Italia and Telecomunicazioni & Informatica, which will show a solution for Home Automation focused on integrating M2M Devices into Mobile Operators' Networks, even if those Devices aren't natively able to do so. This demo uses an OMA-DM M2M Gateway, bringing to life an OMA driven value chain.
Smart Home applications over next generation M2M will be presented by the Fraunhofer Institute for Open Communication Systems (FOKUS), showing the migration path for operators from a human communication paradigm towards Machine Type Communication (MTC). The demonstration will feature remote automation through mobile connectivity, near field communication, location and presence information, and user-defined policies to automate light and air conditioning.
Sensinode will show a complete device to cloud lightweight M2M asset management solution for outdoor lighting control. The system demonstrates the new OMA draft Lightweight M2M (LWM2M) Enabler, giving the global marketplace an open standard approach.
Location-based Services (LBS) will be demonstrated by some ground breaking technology from Invisitrack Inc that will evolve location awareness for enterprise, consumer and public safety that uses commonly available LTE signals for positioning.
CSR will be showcasing SiRFusion location technology, offering accurate indoor and outdoor navigation capability. The demonstration will feature services such as location based security and proximity awareness in addition to indoor navigation.
Comverse, Inc. and Interop Technologies will offer an overview of two different Rich Communication Services (RCS) and messaging solutions. The Comverse RCS/joyn and Next-Generation MultiVAS demonstrations will show how CSPs can make a smooth transition to the digital era. This leverages the evolution to all-IP/4G to increase revenues by harnessing data growth, enriching services with omni-device capabilities, integration with Internet services and more - while reducing costs. Interop Technologies will demonstrate its RCS solution that incorporates the required IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) functions into the RCS server itself. This allows operators to launch RCS with or without an IMS core saving costs and complexity when deploying RCS in the network.
The demonstrations, all enabled by specifications developed by OMA member companies, will give attendees the opportunity to see how OMA Enablers can help deploy products and services with the broadest reach and are interoperable across networks, devices and geographic boundaries.
This unique session can be seen on Wednesday February 27, 2013 in the Theater District, Hall 8.0, Theater C, from 15.00- 19.00. To register to attend this event, please contact Elizabeth Rose [email protected].
This event will also be open to a limited number of journalists to obtain previews of the demonstrations and the chance to speak to the companies attending. To register for a press pass to this event please contact Emma Johnson [email protected].

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

To the Editor: No amnesty
Sept. 29, 2009, President Barack Obama stated that a large portion of our economy depends on millions of workers living in the shadows. He also stated that we must require undocumented immigrants who are already here to step out of the shadows and onto a responsible path to earn citizenship. I would interpret that to be amnesty for the 20-30 million illegal aliens in the United States.
Illegal aliens are not in the shadows. They are in the workplace, emergency rooms, county health departments, schools, and participating in any number of entitlement programs. Unemployment is over 10 percent nationwide. How many American citizens have lost their job to an illegal alien?
Jan. 10, 60 Minutes reported the 28-mile virtual fence on the Mexican/American border to be a $1 billion failure and that the easiest way for a terrorist to enter our country is through the porous American/Mexican border. George W. Bush invited illegal aliens into the U.S., and Obama and Congress continue to hold the door wide open. I look forward to the day when America takes seriously the cost of illegal immigration and the protection of our nation's borders.

Wade Phillips was let go by the Houston Texans on Saturday, along with the rest of Gary Kubiak's assistants. On Monday, Wade decided not to renew his suite purchase for the 2014 season, citing "recent changes" for his choice.
We are presuming that Phillips was contacted by the Texans tickets sales staff to lock in 2014 suite and season ticket sales with the exciting announcement of Bill O'Brien as the Texans new head coach.
Wade probably answered the question in the best possible way.
Well played @SonOfBum, well played.

As always, outstanding service from Tanskys!
Rodney, my service advisor, keeps my car safe for me to drive and informs me when maintenance needs to be performed.
All went well. The repair was completed on time and the staff was professional.
Very good location to do car service.
Courteous and convenient. Good overview of the cars needs for the future. Thanks.
Ben does a really good job! Ive had him help me with service the past couple times and i would like it if he would help me in the future. I like the space available to work on my laptop while wating ( the coffee etc.) i have trouble using your wifi though. and when i asked a salesman for help, he didnt show much care
Weather conditions were not good the morning of my appointment and I was 10 min. late. The Service Rep. said not a problem service was somewhat backed up anyhow. As minor service was being preformed I was told that the car needed front Brake Pads and Rotors resurfaced, I agree to the brake service and it was stated right away. I was in and out in less than 4hr's. I think that was great service on a timely bases. I am a very satisfied customer!
Speedy service.
Service on alignment and oil change was done correctly and was completed faster than anticipated.
Had 3 recall notices and dropped off the car at 11:30am. I was very happy to be able to pick up my car later that day. Was expecting it might take a day or two. Thank you.
Service and price was fair. My only negative was that my service took almost an hour more than promised.
