The term video commonly refers to several storage formats for moving pictures: digital video formats, including Blu-ray Disc, DVD, QuickTime, and MPEG-4; and analog videotapes, including VHS and Betamax. Video can be recorded and transmitted in various physical media: in magnetic tape when recorded as PAL or NTSC electric signals by video cameras, or in MPEG-4 or DV digital media when recorded by digital cameras. Quality of video essentially depends on the capturing method and storage used. Digital television (DTV) is a relatively recent format with higher quality than earlier television formats and has become a standard for television video. 3D-video, digital video in three dimensions, premiered at the end of 20th century.

I looked over the information that she sent and I could not find any thing that we would use. The car rentals they quoated UP TO 25 % off......the best I could find was 3 to 5 % and that was pushing it. They said 50% on the Hotels and then they named some of the large chains making you think that it was ANY of those Hotels........it was not. It was ONLY a SELECT FEW HERE and THERE.
The way it is presented on the inter net and in the information that they send out makes you think other wise. It is down right decieving. My mother and I joined on May 12th, 2004. It took a good week or more for us to get the information from her. We decided it was not right for us and I called her back on June 2nd and told her we did not wish to remain a member of the club. I WAS WELL WITH IN THE 30 DAYS. She told me as soon as she recieved the packet back from us that she would put the credit back on my American Express card.
I sent it return register reciept (I have the card with Lees signature on it) so she could not say that she did not get it back. I have called and left them messages and they refuse to call me back. I have Called and talked with Lee Monen directly on 4 seperate occasions sence I sent the packet back to her. I keep asking her when she is going to credit my account. I first time she was down right nasty and told me that these things take time. Well, it sure did not take any time for her to charge the fee to my card. The next time she just seemed put off that I was bothering her and said that she would look into it.....Fat chance of that one happening.
Each time I manage to get hold of her I probably have 15 failed attempts in between to her answering machine. The 3rd time she acted suprised that it had not been done yet and she promised that she would get it straight. It was then that I informed her that I put in a complaint with American Express and that they were starting an investigation into the matter, her response to that was "Oh it's taken care of then so I dont have to do any thing" and she was going to hang up. I got her to stop and I told her that she still had to put the credit on the account, she said that she would look into it again.
Finally I talked with her for a forth time and she told me that she would call he book keeper and find out why it has not been credited to the account. She took my name and my number down (Like she did not already have it) and she promised that she would call me back before the end of the day. Guess I Don't really need to tell you she did not call me back by the end of the day. Personally, I tink I have a better chance of seeing pigs fly than hearing her call me on the phone.
The more I have tried to get reach her the more angry I have become over the situation. Especially now that I see they have done this before under the name Hotelsetc.com and also under their other name Capital Choice Consumers Credit (and many others too). How is it they can get away with doing this over and over. I do not under stand why the government can not stop people like this, why are they not in jail if they have done this so many time to other people?
So for now I waite while my credit card company does its investigating and see what they decide. I can only hope they go after them.

To me, this would rank in the top three if i were to rank albums of the year. Having listened to this album, it prompted me to look at her youtube videos. She has done many many videos of herself doing covers of songs by other artists, and also of her own material. This young lady is a true british talent. Having been voted top on the sound of 2009 poll, you would understand why after hearing this album. Every song is a stomper in its own way. Though not as successful as, say la roux or florence + the machine, this album is without a doubt equal to or better than those 2. I am, however, also a fan of la roux and florence + the machine. They are different to each other, each doing there own thing, and each doing it well. This album is a must have for this year. Buy it.... It's only £5.99... You wont be disappointed by it all all!! Songs to look out for on the album are, new in town, remedy, earthquake, stuck on repeat, symmetry, mathematics and hearts collide.

The downturn in the Southwest Florida real estate market has created a significant increase in the number of foreclosures in the area. Often referred to as bank owned, distressed or real estate owned (REO) properties, foreclosures can often be purchased at a significant discount over other listings.
Buying a foreclosed home can be challenging for a number of reasons including delays by banks, damage from previous owner or tenant and problems like mold that emerge as a result of long-term vacancies. Read more about Cape Coral foreclosures.

Quick Facts
- Body Ecology offers only the highest quality stevia extract (95% rebaudioside crystals). This extract was developed by taking only the sweet-tasting rebaudioside crystals, leaving behind the licorice-like flavor from the leaves and creating the ideal alternative to synthetic sweeteners.
- Studies suggest stevia has a regulating effect on pancreas and could help stabilize blood sugar levels, making it a safe dietary supplement for people with diabetes, hypoglycemia, and candidiasis.
- Native Indians of the Guarani Tribe in Paraguay have used stevia as a sweetener for centuries.
Guess how many bottles of stevia we've sold so far?
Some comments we've received in the last 4 months --
I have been using this product on and off for the past ten years. I am always looking for something less expensive and have always been disappointed. Body Ecology Stevia is the best I've found, and I've tried them all !! Do yourself a favor and try Body Ecology Stevia before you waste another dime on other Stevia sweetner
I have never cared for stevia. My mom tried this product and convinced me to buy it. I'm glad she did. It is the best stevia I have had!
I've thrown out at least 20 bottles of Stevia trying to find one that didn't have an awful aftertaste...
This is the best tasting liquid stevia of any I've tried and I've tried them all!! It is very highly concentrated as well and only 2 or three drops are needed compared to about 10 drops of other brands.
It is a good replacement for sugar but does take some getting use to it.
BED Stevia Liquid Concentrate is made from our super-high quality stevia mixed with filtered water. 2 ounces.
Conversion Chart

By Suzi L.
I absolutely love the Body Ecology Stevia. I trust it, and I love it's liquid form. I use it to replace all sugar - and it works beautifully. My children don't notice the difference at all!

By rgham
We have been using this for about eight years. The quality is consistently good. My wife keeps an extra in her purse. Wouldn't leave home without it!
Good in small amounts11/21/14
By FluteEd
If you keep the amount low, Stevia has no aftertaste. If you over do it, this product's aftertaste is as bad as the competition.
Love the Stevia Liquid11/21/14
By Kelly
I have used the BED Stevia for about 7 months now and it's great! It doesn't have the same strange aftertaste that some Stevia's on the market have. I use it every day in tea, and make my own lemonade soda using organic lemon juice, stevia, and sparking water. It also sweetens quinoa flakes! Great product!
Love the product.11/21/14
By Sandy
Love, love, love.
Excellent product - highly recommend11/21/14
By Z
This is by far the BEST stevia I have tried. I use it to cook with, to sweeten teas and grains for breakfast. Don't know what I'd do without it!
The best stevia11/21/14
By Terry
This is the best Stevia I have ever used ... there is no bitter aftertaste.
By Dee
No comparison to any other "Stevia". Hands down! No after taste or bitterness. And hey, I really want to keep my precious "hubby" around for a long, long, time!!!! So, I purchase the very best! He uses it in his coffee and anything he wants to "sweeten up" his sweet tooth! ( I still drink my 1/2 cup of coffee black, but who is counting?)
Have a great life!

Microchip's billion dollar deals net German startup
May 03, 2012 // Nick Flaherty
US microcontroller vendor Microchip has been on a billion dollar buying spree with the recent acquisition of three companies, including a German startup, that gives it several European design centres.
Alongside the billion dollar acquisition of SMSC, Microchip has bought Ident Technology in Gilching, Germany, which is developing 3-D gesture recognition technology based on electric field sensing.
Last September Robert Bosch Venture Capital led an investment round of $10m in Ident. "This acquisition builds upon Microchip's strengths in proximity, touch sense and touch screen controller solutions for the embedded market," said the company.
The agreed deal to buy networking chip designer Standard Microsystems Corp (SMSC) represents a total value of about $939 million and is expected to close in the third quarter of this year. SMSC has design centers in Karlsruhe and Pforzheim, Germany and Sofia in Bulgaria after buying design companies KL2, Tallika Technologies and Wireless Audio IP in Belgium. SMSC has a strong position in automotive and consumer networking chips
"We believe SMSC's smart mixed-signal connectivity solutions aimed at embedded applications are an ideal complement to Microchip's embedded control business," said Steve Sanghi, Microchip's President and CEO. "This acquisition will expand Microchip's range of solutions as SMSC contributes exciting new products and capabilities in the automotive, industrial, computing, consumer and wireless audio markets, significantly extending our served available market."
The deal comes after Microchip also bought US start-up Roving Networks in Los Gatos, California to add WiFi and Bluetooth technology to its portfolio of 8, 16 and 32bit microcontrollers

Doug Rothwell, BLM President & CEO, said that today's Senate action will help existing Michigan companies and prospective businesses see that our state is willing to take care of itself.
"Business executives rank access to and condition of highways as one of the top factors in making site location decisions," Rothwell said. "If we want to protect the jobs we have and grow new jobs, we need to fix our roads and bridges. Today was a major step in the right direction."]]>
DETROIT, Mich. November 13, 2014—An audience of 400+ business, nonprofit and community leaders, and policymakers gathered today at the Westin Book Cadillac to take stock of Michigan's economic transformation to date and rally around strategies for moving Michigan forward. Headlined by XPRIZE Chairman and CEO Peter Diamandis and McKinsey & Co. Director Jonathan Woetzel, the event emphasized the need for aggressive action to compete in today's highly competitive economy.
"The pace of change in business has rapidly increased," said Jeff Fettig, Chairman and CEO of the Whirlpool Corporation and Chair of Business Leaders for Michigan (BLM), which hosted today's event. "You have to be first in the market or better than everyone else. Industry leaders must constantly be reinventing themselves if they are to stay ahead of the curve and Michigan must too."]]>
In this edition of Business Leaders Insights, BLM Vice President of Marketing & Communications Kelly Chesney is joined by BLM President & CEO Doug Rothwell.
Rothwell talks about the upcoming Nov. 13 Michigan CEO Summit, a fast-paced half day event where attendees will hear directly from some of the nation's top minds on how we can help Michigan continue its turnaround, better understand our competitors and position ourselves and our businesses to take advantage of emerging global trends through innovation and collaboration.

It's long past time Michigan's outdated personal property tax was eliminated. We've all heard the stories-businesses that bought equipment a half-century ago or more, and have been paying tax on that equipment every single year since-but the truth goes much deeper than that.
If we're going to make Michigan a top ten state for jobs, personal income and a healthy economy, we need to keep pace with our competitors in the U.S. and across the globe. The states MI competes with most abandoned this 19th-century method of taxation long ago. They are welcoming new investment, not punishing it.
Even those who receive the personal property tax revenue each year are eager to find a new approach. The amount of money brought in by the tax tends to fluctuate wildly, leaving local government without a stable, dependable revenue stream. They, too, would like to bring Michigan into the 21st century.
BLM's view: BLM strongly endorses the passage of Proposal 1. We've improved our corporate tax climate, developed friendlier policy and regulatory frameworks, and are nurturing a workforce that is among the nation's finest. Now we need to remove the last barrier to lasting economic growth-the personal property tax.]]>
Washington D.C., July 31, 2014 — Business Leaders for Michigan (BLM), the state's business roundtable, today brought leading corporate executives to Washington D.C. to meet with Michigan "alumni" to talk about Michigan's reestablished position as a leading location for business development and expansion. Michigan Governor Rick Snyder joined executives in emphasizing the state's progress on key factors that lead to economic expansion.
"In just a few short years, Michigan has transformed its business climate," said Doug Rothwell, Business Leaders for Michigan President and CEO. "The steps Michigan has taken to become more competitive have paid off. Our tax climate has flipped from one of the nation's worst to one of the best, Michigan is a national leader in terms of R&D and talent production and Michigan's per capita GDP, per capita income and employment have all grown faster than the national average."]]>

As hopes for a last-minute buyer dim, Atlantic City's Revel casino has laid out its closure plans, from disposing of opened bottles of alcohol to cashing unredeemed poker chips.
Revel Casino Hotel is one of four Atlantic City casinos that have closed or announced plans to close this year. By the middle of September, Revel, Caesar's Showboat, and Trump Plaza Hotel & Casino will be shut. The Atlantic Club casino closed in January.
The plans for shutting down Revel detailed in court documents mark the end of a $2.4-billion (U.S) hotel-casino that was hailed when it opened in 2012 by state leaders, including Governor Chris Christie, as a model for reviving the New Jersey seaside city.
The plan will go into effect on Sunday, as the sleek casino's 14 restaurants and five pool areas close, allowing for the removal of perishable goods.
Unopened bottles of alcohol will be packaged, recorded for inventory and stored, until approval is given to sell them, according to a filing this week with U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Camden, N.J.
The 47-storey hotel, restaurant and casino complex, with a striking design meant to evoke the rolling surf of the Atlantic Ocean, never caught on with gamblers. It opened just as neighbouring Pennsylvania and Delaware embraced casinos, and filed for bankruptcy for the first time in 2013.
Revel filed its current bankruptcy in June, with plans for an auction with what it hoped would be several bidders to buy the property. But earlier this month, Revel said no parties had submitted a qualifying bid, which required a pledge to operate the casino as a going concern.
From the start, Revel was criticized for serious missteps such as a non-smoking policy and a layout that put the gaming floor at the periphery of the complex, which is located at northern end of the city's boardwalk.
"The debtors remain hopeful that a qualified bid will emerge from continued negotiations with potential bidders," Revel's lawyer Michael Viscount of Fox Rothschild in Atlantic City, wrote in the filing. "At this time, however, the debtors are unable to set a definitive timeframe for the sale process."
The filing noted that Wells Fargo, which provided Revel's bankruptcy loan to finance operations during its Chapter 11, expressed a willingness to extend its loan beyond the current maturity of Oct. 31.
At 6 a.m. on Monday, the doors will close for good and Revel AC Inc will surrender its gaming licence.
After Revel closes, it plans to honour outstanding slot vouchers and unredeemed poker chips until Sept. 15. Any holders who do not redeem their winnings by then will become general unsecured creditors, according to the filing.
Winnings that had been deposited with the casino for safekeeping that are not claimed by Sept. 15 will be turned over to the state of New Jersey as unclaimed property, according to the filing.
Meanwhile the closures have hit Atlantic City. Mayor Don Guardian says the city plans to eliminate almost 18 per cent of its municipal workforce or about 300 jobs. He expects property values to fall as low as $7.5-billion, from $20-billion five years ago.

Once there was a show called "The Hat Squad" and it was very, very stupid
I remember the day I realized that TV was controlled by idiots: the day I watched Hat Squad. It only ran for one season, but the idea that anyone green-lit such a manifestly terrible idea literally shocked my conscience. The plot: a crusty old cop adopted a multi-ethnic trio of orphans and raised them to fight crime. Now that they are grown, Buddy, Rafael and Matty go abroad in the world, wearing distinctive hats, to dispense justice.
This show was so offensively stupid that for many years I thought I must have misremembered it, but I discovered its Wikipedia page this morning and realized that it was every bit as bad as I recalled, and possibly worse. That there were people stupid enough to spend enormous amounts of money of this turd sandwich is startling, but even more startling is the realization that these people were also allowed to operate motor vehicles and (shudder) reproduce.

12-hour Brady Bunch "Alice" marathon airs Saturday
Join TV Land this Saturday, June 7th, in celebrating Ann B. Davis, who played lovable housekeeper and friend Alice on "The Brady Bunch." Alice was an essential member of the Brady home -- shown by the fact that she was the center square in the title sequence!
The marathon features some of the most memorable moments with Alice and the Brady family – like when the house turns chaotic after Alice sprains her ankle; the time Alice decides to leave and the kids try to win her back; and when Alice's cousin Emma (played by Davis) fills in while Alice is on vacation and ends up driving the Bradys insane! There's no question that Alice is one of the most devoted and beloved housekeepers in TV Land.

Once on the ground, the jet engines disengaged and the 12-cylinder primary engine revved back into control."Boo-yah, KP! Now that is what I call making an exit!" Exclaimed Ron, as he fist-pumped his hands in the air, still in triumphant celebration over graduating high school."No big." Kim replied in her familiar catchphrase "It was just a little boost from dual hypersonic jet engines, breaking the sound barrier and checking the view from the stratosphere. Nothing too over the top." She said with a wink and a nod."Are you kidding me? The Air Force scrambled a freakin' fighter squadron on us!" Ron bragged."Yeah well, everyone's a little on edge as of late. You know, post-alien invasion and all."As he began to calm down, Ron's buzz began to fade as he looked around at the desolate 4-lane highway they were traveling on. "So,

My Ovulation Chart


text: Well, here is another anecdote for you. I have been Coeliac for around 27 years. Highly sensitive to the point of even a little bit of flour making me projectile vomit. And yet,I have always been able to drink 'normal' beer with no physical effects apart from the normal effects beer has on people. Although I can't comment on what it has done to parts of my body that I can't see. Which is mostly why I now brew my own fully gluten free beer. However, a few months back I tried 'Duara Gluten Free' beer to find out the 'competition'. It's not gluten free, it's only gluten reduced but for some stupid reason the even more stupid European Union allow it. That's another story. After trying it I started to get a really bad head ache and some serious stomach cramps. To the point of I was unable to sleep all night. So there is either something seriously wrong with the beer, or clarity firm is useless and the chemicals from it make it even worse. A little bit like a really cheap bottle of wine. Looks good in the shop as it will save you a few quid, but you REALLY regret it the next day. All thanks to the chemicals. Long and the short, Clarity Ferm doesn't make it gluten free, just gluten reduced. And it helps to create the terrible beer Daura.

Story and Photographs by John Murray
Jackson Wandres from the RBA Group uncorked a far reaching vision for the Waterbury Greenway Project last night during a presentation at the Board of Aldermen in City Hall. RBA had been hired to design the phase one section of the greenway which included the Platts Mills section of the city up to the Eagle Street Bridge (all in the south end), but through an aggressive intervention by Waterbury Mayor Neil O'Leary, those plans expanded to continue north to Colonial Plaza.
Democrat Majoity Leader on the Board of Aldermen, Tony Picocchi, foreground, listened to his Republican colleague, Steve Giacomi, right, give a blistering commentary about the board's December 1st vote to control debate between aldermen, and to limit the public's ability to address subjects not on the agenda without submitting questions 11 days in advance of meetings. The public's response to the Democrats attempt to limit debate at aldermen meetings was fast and furious. Both the Rep-Am newspaper and the Waterbury Observer condemned the rule changes, and when the ACLU threatened a lawsuit, the Democrats reversed course and voted last night to return to the old rules.

Albanian Independence Day is celebrated on November 28th and is a national holiday in Albania, and for ethnic Albanians scattered across the globe. The local Albanian community in Waterbury celebrated the holiday, and their annual Mayor For the Day ceremony at Waterbury City Hall a day later this year since Thanksgiving fell on November 28th.
A Holiday Artisan Market is being hosted by the State of Connecticut and the City of Waterbury on November 29th and 30th inside City Hall, 235 Grand Street. The market will feature a collection of handcrafted products and will showcase artisans and artists from around Connecticut. With its premiere in City Hall, we expect this Market to grow every year and become a state-wide attraction.

Story and Photographs by Chelsea Murray
(Editors note - For the next several months Chelsea Murray is working her way across Europe on a network of organic farms. Chelsea and her boyfriend Michael Kaneb spent two weeks harvesting potatoes in Bavaria, in southern Germany, and are now harvesting olives for a month on a farm in the south of France. They hope to continue on through Spain, Portugal, Italy, Albania and Greece. Chelsea has been writing columns for the Observer (which is owned by her father) since she was 11 years old. She will continue to report her adventures as time and internet access allows.)
After helping my farm host set up her stand at the market in Ceret, France (the city where Picasso, Dali and other artists had flocked to for inspiration), she informed me that I was a free woman and could wander around for a few hours to take in the sights, smells, and culture of a French market. My first moments alone were spent breaking from my vegan diet again (it's the lifestyle at the farm I'm working at), and sampling hoards of cheeses, meats, delicious baguettes and perusing through people's wares.

Council passes snow, ice removal ordinance
The council adopted a new snow and ice removal ordinance at its regular meeting Monday night. The ordinance addresses safety concerns related to snow and ice build-up on sidewalks and owners/occupants piling snow in the streets when clearing sidewalks, and calls for owners/occupants of city lots to remove ice or snow which forms, accumulates on or obstructs sidewalks within 24 hours after the ice forms or the snowfall ends. In cases where it is difficult to remove, sprinkling ash, salt or sand within the 24-hour timeframe is an acceptable means to make the sidewalk safe for pedestrian use. Owners/occupants are prohibited from blowing or shoveling snow into public streets except with prior permission from the City of Center. Violators of these provisions will be subject to a $50 fine.

It's a miracle that any opera ever gets performed
Opera is an extraordinary thing, and its triumphs rest, like no other art form, on the physical and musical capacities of very rare individuals
Sir Antonio Pappano, the music director of the Royal Opera House at Covent Garden, gave way to some long-held frustration this week.
He was launching the new season, but could not restrain himself from responding to questions about last season's rare revival of Robert le Diable. It was one of the 19th century's favourite operas, a work of unusual spectacle, but its composer Meyerbeer is more familiar in history books than in performance these days.
Sir Antonio drew our attention to the catastrophic series of cancellations and substitutions that preceded the first night of the production. The production was postponed to permit the Peruvian tenor Juan Diego Florez to take part. Florez then pulled out, deciding that the role was too heavy for his voice after all. Another star, Diana Damrau, cancelled when she became pregnant, and was replaced by an American singer, Jennifer Rowley. Only a week before the first night, it became apparent that Rowley simply wasn't up to the role. She was dismissed. Finally, the role was taken by Patrizia Ciofi.
The whole thing came very near catastrophe – opera buffs will appreciate the difficulty of finding a soprano who can step in and sing the lead in Robert le Diable at a week's notice. Sir Antonio gave way, in retrospect, to exasperation. "It happens more and more. There's something about this generation of singers, that they are weaker in their bodies or don't care. I don't know what it is, but it's something that is very, very frustrating for me personally." Pappano said that Placido Domingo, from a previous generation, "would have to be on his deathbed" before he'd cancel.
Opera is an extraordinary thing, and its triumphs rest, like no other art form, on the physical and musical capacities of very rare individuals. A really great voice is not a common thing, and only rarely appears connected to a great musical intelligence. A great voice may appear, connected to a great musical intelligence, but they turn out not to know what you hoped to put on, or not to like Janacek one bit. Or they fulfil every single one of these criteria, and, amazingly, happen to be available; and then they come down with a cold. Most operas have at least five or six main parts that can't be skimped on. It is amazing, when you come to think of it, that an opera ever gets performed. There are just too many things to go wrong.
But it's surprising that Sir Antonio gave way to such irritation, because the Opera House is going through a glorious phase. Tony Hall, who was the chief executive from 2001 until leaving to become the BBC's director-general, has been a triumph. Covent Garden has undertaken hugely successful outreach programmes, getting big audiences through cinema broadcasts. (There was one memorable week when one of its broadcasts outsold Skyfall.)
Pappano himself has been a very successful and highly visible music director. The house has developed singing talent, in the main house and in the studio theatre, and, very notably, has established an excellent record in commissioning new operas. Three new operas in the past decade have been huge successes – Thomas Adès's The Tempest, Harrison Birtwistle's The Minotaur and George Benjamin's superb Written on Skin, currently packing in a young and engaged audience. That is a new thing. If the opera house could move from promoting English composers to mounting new work by world composers, it would make the final shift from a museum to a centre of living culture. It has not yet staged the defining operas of the past 40 years by Ligeti, Messiaen or John Adams. The journey of transformation may be just beginning.
Does it matter? Opera, surely, is an expensive minority interest that hardly touches anyone's lives. But to have a superb institution at the head of national cultural life, at the top of its game, transforms everything. It makes London seem that bit more exciting. I can understand Sir Antonio's irritation at changing manners among singers and frequent cancellations, but he should perhaps shrug, and understand what a great moment he has helped to create. One suggestion: as the music director, he might like to ask singers to come earlier, and hang about the city and the opera house a little more. I fear that all that transcontinental flying, with countless bugs flying about in dehydrated air, is at the root of his little problem.
A gilded wheelchair? That's what stars do
I felt so happy when I heard about Lady Gaga's wheelchair. She has been obliged to cancel much of a tour after developing synovitis, but has made the most of a bad situation. She has let it be known that she has commissioned a wheelchair with a leather seat and back, and plated with gold by jewellery designer Ken Borochov of the label Mordecai.
Some people really know how to behave like stars, I must say. Not for Lady Gaga the falling out of nightclubs and telling all to redtops. No whiny appearances on reality TV shows. Just wondering out loud how she can pimp up anything that seems to be required of her by asking a top designer to cover the whole thing with gold leaf, and then socking a sunshade on top.
Surely, that's what we want from our stars. We don't want them to be just like us, and to be glimpsed hoiking their Waitrose ready meals into the back of the Toyota Prius. We don't want them to wonder out loud about whether now is the right time to have a baby or hear about their difficulties with weight loss. We want them to live, magnificently, behind massive castle walls, to spend their time lolling on leopardskin chaises longues stroking pythons, being drip-fed beluga, and to be wheeled about, when peaky, in gold-plated wheelchairs. What do you mean, you didn't sign up for that? If it wasn't in the job description of International Megastar, it certainly ought to be.
