Todor Alexandrov Todor Alexandrov at work
click on the flag for Bulgarian language
Todor Alexandrov was born on March 4th 1881 in the Novo selo suburb of
Shtip in the family of Alexander Poporushev and Maria Alexandrova. In 1898
he finished the Bulgarian Pedagogical School in Skopje and became a
teacher consequtively in the towns of Kochani, Kratovo, the village of
Vinica, and Shtip. As young as 15 years of age, he was sworn as a member
of VMORO by Hristo Matov.
In 1903 Todor Alexandrov distinguished himself as an extraordinary
leader and organizer of the Kochani revolutionary district. He was
arrested by the Turkish authorities on Marh 3rd 1903 and sent to Skopje
under enforced police escort during the same night. He was sentenced to 5
years of solitary conginement by the extraordinary court there. In 13
months time (April 1904) he was released after an amnesty. Soon afterwards
he was appointed a headteacher in the Second high-school in Shtip. Todor
Alexandrov, in cooperation with Todor Lazarov and Mishe Razvigorov, worked
day and night to organise the Shtip revolutionary district. The results of
his activities were detected by the Turkish authorities and in November
1904 he was forbidden to teach. On 10th January 1905 Alexandrov's house
was surrounded by a numerous troops but the daring revolutionary succeeded
in breaking throught the military cordone and immediately joined the cheta
(band) of Mishe Razvigorov where he became its secretary. Alexandrov
attended the First congress of the Skopje revolutionary region as a
delegate from the Shtip district.
His deteriorating health made him become a teacher in the Black Sea town
of Bourgas in 1906, but after learning about the heroic death of Mishe
Razvigorov, he abandonced the work as a teacher and returned to Macedonia
at once. In November 1907 Alexandrov was elected as a district voevoda
(commander) by the Third congress of the Skopje revolutionary region.
On 2nd August 1909 the Turks made another attempt to arrest him but
failed again. In the spring of 1910 he and his cheta traversed the Skopje
region and organised the revolutionary activities. At the beginning of
1911 Todor Alexandrov became a member of the Central Committee of VMRO. In
1912 he is a voevoda in the Kukush and Solun (Salonika) districts where he
carried out a number of sabotages against Turkish targets, facilitating
this way the Bulgarian cause in the First Balkan War. In 1913 he was at
the head quarters of the Third brigade of the Macedonian Militia, and
during the Second Balkan War he supported the Bulgarian Eight Tundzha
Division with his VMRO chetas. After 1913 he had to organise the VMRO
resistance again the new oppressors - Serbs and Greeks.
On 4th November 1919 Todor Alexandrov was arrested by the government of
Stambolijski but he succeeded to escape nine days later. In the spring of
1920 Alexandrov went with a cheta to Macedonia where he restored the
revolutionary organisation and attracted the world's attention to the
unsolved Macedonian question. At the end of 1922 his head was prised at
250 000 dinars by the Serbian authorities in Belgrade.
Todor Alexandrov met his death of a hero when a traitorous hand fired a bullet on 31st August 1924 in the legendary Pirin mountain.

Texas Observer 2/28/2003 - Bad Bills: Historians write about whether the ancient Macedonians were Hellenic. According to Loring Danforth "The evidence says no." Seems that the consensus among scholars is the exact opposite of what is stated in Bonnen's resolution. " Behind it all is an attempt to deny a group of people the right to identify themselves as they wish." Apparently, the dispute is not just between Greece and the Republic of Macedonia. A minority of non-Greek Slavs within Northern Greece also identify themselves as Macedonian and have suffered human rights abuses for their refusal to assimilate into Greek culture. So not only does HR 107 contain highly questionable facts, its lousy foreign policy. In Prof. Danforth's words: "It's a bad bill because it is bad history, bad diplomacy, and bad human rights!"
After two years of intense negotiations, Greece stood on the verge of fulfilling the Megali Idea. The 1919 Treaty of Neuilly had awarded Bulgarian territory in western Thrace and Macedonia to Greece.

Our Beaumont Close campus
In November 2012, the Education Funding Agency agreed to purchase the Institute Arts Centre at Beaumont Close on behalf of the Archer Academy. This beautiful, well-located building provides ample space for two year groups, and will be used as our upper school once we are up to full capacity.
We have worked with the EFA and specialist architects to refit and rework this former adult education centre inside and out, creating flexible spaces for teaching and learning which perfectly suit our students and our curriculum.
You can read the answers to some of the questions people have about our premises in general here.

Quite a lot of us have probably done an elimination diet, only to introduce too many foods too fast and not know which one has caused them trouble.
Well, I understand that diet is a personal thing and that different people have different triggers, but here is my "safe food list" that I go back to if ever I break out introducing a new food. Maybe try it for yourself. It's very brief but always gets me back to clear skin.
And please, no "omg rice = sugar = breakouts" and "high calories = breakouts", because I eat a shitload of carbs in the form of rice, and alot of calories and I assure you that it does not break me out in the slightest. So remember once again, that this is my personal list and that I'm not "wrong" on any foods, so please keep your opinions to yourself but suggestions are very welcome!
Coconut Oil
Salad (minus tomatoes)
Any portion size that isn't ridiculous, as many calories as you want.
Example meal:
200g beef mince, 1 whole avocado, 1.5tbsp coconut oil, 250g rice, as much salad as I can fit
Again, this is not intending to work for everybody, but I'm just saying that sometimes people are way too eager to blame "carbs" and "fats" and "calories", and that this diet always clears me.
Best of luck everybody!

How to Enjoy a Summer Staycation at Homeby Maria Russo in Recipes, July 26th, 2014
For one reason or another, you may not be indulging in a lavish getaway this summer, but that doesn't mean you have to abandon the idea of finding quality time to relax. The key to turning your home into a vacationlike setting is switching up your usual routine for a few days; during your staycation, try treating yourself to different meals and re-creating some of the common experiences you may have had, if you had traveled. For the co-hosts on The Kitchen, that meant creating international-inspired recipes and sharing ideas for DIY spa treatments on this morning's all-new episode. Read on below to get some of their best recipes for favorite eats and drinks, plus tips on fashioning at-home spa services.
Perhaps the best part about Korean barbecue is the customizable element that takes the guesswork out of catering to your family's individual appetites. Sunny Anderson's Sweet and Spicy Korean BBQ (pictured above) features versatile lettuce wraps; after marinating beef in a sweet and salty brown sugar-soy sauce mixture, she grills the meat and serves it in Bibb lettuce cups with an array of toppings. Set up a buffet of carrots, bean sprouts, radishes and kimchi, and let everyone build their ultimate wraps.
Katie Lee and Jeff Mauro showed off chicken two ways with their Moroccan- and Caribbean-inspired recipes for Chicken Tagine with Preserved Lemon and Olives and Jerk Chicken, respectively. While Katie's big-batch recipe turns out a deliciously fragrant citrus sauce, Jeff's meaty dish is boldly flavored and subtly spicy.
For Geoffrey Zakarian, it's all about the coastline as he reinvents the classic Lobster Roll (pictured above). His easy-to-do recipe lets fresh steamed lobster shine, while highlighting it with a creamy mayonnaise-mustard sauce.
With only a handful of ingredients, Jeff and Katie create simple, refreshing sips with their recipes for Aloe Vera Drink and Cantaloupe Coconut Water, and Geoffrey puts a next-level twist on an adults-only daiquiri. His Strawberry-Ginger Daiquiri boasts juicy fresh berries, plus splashes of lime juice and rum, and it balances the bite of ginger with sweet syrup.
If you can't get away to luxuriate at a fancy spa, make your favorite treatments at home. Find out how Marcela and Katie reinvent the traditional face mask, foot soak and tea water using everyday ingredients and products.

I loved your segment on how to remove all the meat from the lobster safely. Is there a video of that available online? After watching it I had to rush my 87 yr. old father to Urgent Care for slicing his finger trying to remove the meat from a lobster he made. Five stitches later and a few hours he was back home. Your recipe sounds great and will be made soon. Please tell me the video is available.
I really love the show, the Korean Barbeque is great…can't wait to do this with my family!
Should beef be brined to tenderize it. I've used several recipes but the beef got tougher. I love eye of round and rump for roasting. Any ideas.
Nice content. I like the way you publish your writing without any kind of fancy coding, only great content.
Let yourself take a break this summer and take a staycation. A week at home with no errands or work to do is the perfect way to enjoy the summer

I am taking a look at Dennis Ngien's volume, Luther as Spiritual Adviser: The Interface of Theology and Piety in Luther's Devotional Writings (Paternoster, 2007). Ngien focuses on Luther's devotional writings, emphasizing the material in volumes 42 and 43 of the American edition of the works of Luther. In his own words, "The aim…is to unfold the pastoral, not the polemical, side of the Reformer, drawing on the spiritual insights he offered to people of high and low estate. These writings are devotional and catechetical in shape and intent, yet not devoid of rich theological substance, the fruit of his rigorous reflections. They are the exercises of Luther's basic calling as a theologian-pastor, and are concrete illustrations of the interface of theology and piety, the former being the abiding presupposition and logical cause of the latter" (xvii).
In a quote that reminds me of many posts on this blog, Ngien claims that, for Luther, "The theological curriculum ought to be taught differently, that is, in a way that takes seriously the spiritual formation of a theologian, since his primary vocation is to preach and teach the gospel of Jesus" (xix). Likewise, in advice to young theologians, Luther suggests prayer, meditation and struggle as rhythms of life. Ngien offers interpretation: Continue reading

A childhood loss inspired Debra Taylor of Taylor Financial Group to make sure her female clients never feel lost. Find out what she does differently.
Video Transcript
[MUSIC] In our firm, and in my office, I do not allow women to become disempowered. Growing up, my father died when I was 10 years old, and it was a sudden death, and I know what it's like to be part of a family, where things are happening suddenly and there's fear and uncertainty. And I do not allow that to happen to women in my office. So when we deal with clients that are husband and wife, and we have many of them. And some of our clients, the men are very astute. We have clients who are Hedge Fund Managers, who are Wall Street Traders, Doctors. So these are our clients. And they're coming in here. They are making most of the money for the family it's not all of it. Typically the women is staying at home has been out of the workforce for many years. If he has, and I call that the alpha personality, if he has that alpha personality, I will then direct questions to the woman. So even if he is satisfied with the investment strategy, even if he is good to go, I will literally turn to the woman, and let's say her name is Judy, and I will say Judy, what do you think about this? Judy, do you feel comfortable with this strategy? And I will purposely pull questions out of Judy to get a sense as to where she is in this process. The other thing that I do quite honestly, is I will try to work with Judy on her own. So I will take Judy out to lunch. Next week at my home, we're having a luncheon for 25 women clients that are coming to my home, and it's just women. So I will setup events just for my women client's, even if they are married, so that we can get a connection and an opportunity to work together and socialize together. So that when the are in my office, they do feel empowered and the don't say, gee, this is my husband's financial advisor, he's the Doctor, he's the Trader. They walk in and they say, Debbie is my financial advisor too. [MUSIC]

The economy robbed Americans of insurance, exacerbated psychological stress, and, paradoxically, saw fewer people die.
Amid the sleaze and cynicism of the last election cycle, a Priorities USA spot titled "Understands" transcended the normal boundaries of smear. The ad insinuated that by eliminating steelworker Joe Soptic's job and health insurance, Romney and Bain Capital forced Soptic's wife to forego treatment for the early signs of the cancer that ultimately took her life. But although fact-checkers found the causality in this story overstated, public health research shows that recessions do carry human costs that are often neglected.
Public health practitioners have acknowledged the power of economic and social forces on peoples' health since German physician Rudolph Virchow first blamed poverty for a 19th century Typhus outbreak. Now, attempts to catalog the myriad mechanisms that allow socioeconomic conditions to "get under our skin" are a central public health concern. In 2005, the World Health Organization established a Commission on Social Determinants of Health to advise on how to reduce their harm. Three years after the end of the Great Recession, it's clear that this downturn affected health of Americans in three ways: robbing them of insurance, exacerbating psychological stress, and, paradoxically, causing fewer people to die.
By one estimate a one percent decrease in employment positively correlates with a 0.54% decrease in mortality rate: more than 13,000 averted deaths per year.
Unlike all other high-income nations that have universal healthcare systems, in the United States health insurance coverage fluctuates with the whims of the economy. Those without insurance, like Joe Soptic's wife, may refrain from preventative care or screenings necessary to identify illness early in its progression. While a small number of people lost insurance because their employer terminated healthcare benefits, the vast majority of the 5.6 million added to the rolls of the uninsured between 2007 and 2009 came from those that lost full-time employment. Young people, aged 19 to 34, composed nearly half of those that lost insurance during the official period of recession.
To mitigate the loss of insurance, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act provided money to states for expanded children's health insurance programs and Medicaid as well as subsidized insurance premiums for the unemployed buying COBRA coverage. Such expansions not only prevented more widespread coverage loss among adults, but helped reduce the number of uninsured children by 600,000 in spite of the recession. Thankfully, provisions in the Affordable Care Act should help prevent future swings in insurance coverage and the Great Recession should be the last downturn to rob people of health coverage.
Beyond harm caused by loss of insurance, unemployment and job insecurity directly diminish peoples' health. A 2007 study by researchers at the University of Michigan and UCLA examined longitudinal interview data from American adults and found that while job loss leads to a significant decline in self-reported health and an increase in depression, the effects are concentrated among those that lost jobs because of poor health. Those that lost jobs for all other reasons -- such as a recession -- experienced only a slight increase in depressive symptoms and no significant decline in health. Instead, the authors found that persistent perception of job insecurity led to diminished self-reported health and increased depression even after adjusting for prior health and socioeconomic demographics. This confirms findings from a study of white-collar British civil servants and suggests that long-term anxiety over employment degrades health.
Accordingly, suicides, the most dramatic manifestation of depression and anxiety, proliferate during economic downturns. In twelve out of fourteen recessions since the 1920s the suicide rate accelerated upwards. Rates among 25 to 64-year-olds are more volatile than other age groups because, as many of them serve as primary breadwinners for their families, anxiety over job loss is compounded by fear of its impact on their dependents. According to a model recently published in the Lancet, between 2007 and 2010 in the United States approximately 4,750 people took their lives beyond the level that would be expected without the recession. Taken together, loss of insurance, persistent job insecurity and increased suicide rate paint a dour picture of health for individuals during recessions.

Wine investment industry must rectify glaring error
Much like dank, overcast weather conditions which accompany saturating rainfall, no-one cares for the telephone that rings at an odd hour, heralding an unwanted cold call.
Sure, an unsolicited call provides a great opportunity for well-rehearsed one-liners and other amusing ruses as you hear the rustle of a well-worn script and the caller clearing his throat as he endeavours to speak uninterrupted for eight minutes.
But I've never got round to speaking in a Dalek voice, nor asked the caller the meaning of life because I have no desire to engage the person in conversation.
Generally, the unsolicited call arrives at a thoroughly inconvenient time, usually during dinner and, as you rush towards the 'phone, your mild annoyance at being interrupted is rapidly replaced by anger as the caller swings straight into his sales spiel. However, rather than hurl abuse at someone who is only trying to earn a living, nowadays I tend to be polite. "Listen mate, I'm in the middle of dinner and I'm not really interested. Do me a favour and take this number off your list. Thanks."
That few seconds of civility invariably results in undisturbed dinners – at least until the next company manages to get hold of your number. You may, of course, register with the Telephone Preference Service, which is around 98% effective.
So I've always wondered what "high pressure telephone selling" is and, more importantly, if such a thing exists, why people put up with it.
Why would you feel pressured by the voice of a person you've never met who is invading your privacy to sell you something you don't want? If push comes to shove, simply replace the receiver and report the call.
I mention this as a new self regulatory body for wine investment companies, the Wine Investment Association (WIA), was launched at the London offices of accountancy firm Mazars yesterday.
The new body also published a Code of Practice for trade and would-be WIA members while announcing the start of a consultation period, during which it would like to establish robust policies and procedures designed to provide fine wine investors with much greater security. It's a laudable aim.
There is clearly a need for such a body and its arrival is to be welcomed only a few days after a company called Vinance (Geddit?), apparently a well-known wine portfolio manager and broker went into administration. Based in Greenwich, the company managed more than £50 million worth of fine wine assets for thousands of investors in nine countries.
At this point, it's worth noting that investing in fine wines is not regulated by the Financial Services Authority. In effect, this means that marketing statements issued by brokers can make unsubstantiated claims of colossal returns, either in print or, depressingly, often over the phone and investors would not be covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme should they feel they had been mis-sold.
Most people know this, so it will be Mazars' role to audit WIA members' internal systems and undertake annual compliance audits thereafter. The accountants will also examine the process of fine wine investment, from acquisition to storage, ensuring investor ownership is accurately recorded and guaranteeing the wine is physically present in storage and ring-fenced from the danger of company failure.
This is all fine and dandy, but it is astonishing to learn that the WIA's Code of Practice has not outlawed cold calling. If there is one flaw which has damaged the fine wine investment industry's credibility, it is cold calling. The process is often blamed for effectively defrauding investors by selling them over-priced or unsuitable wines, using those 'high pressure sales techniques' referred to above.
There is still time for the WIA and Mazars to rectify what is surely an oversight. Should they fail to do so, the industry will continue to appear a rather tacky, slightly dodgy one to outsiders. This would be a pity because most practitioners and wine brokers are perfectly reasonable folk.
The WIA has until 20th January to banish cold calling. It is, if you'll excuse the pun, an easy call - there's no need for it and very, very few prospective wine investors actually want it. In fact, get rid of cold calling and more people would probably be interested in investing in a potentially attractive alternative asset.

Hi All,
Just got this new V7P tablet and set it all up. Worked fine initially, now it's stuck and won't boot past the android logo. Seems its got itself confused. I've tried all combinations of buttons being held down to see if there's a recovery mode and have had no luck.
can anyone help?
Kr B
try to reset the tablet. use a very thin object poke into the mic hole, very gently. You should feel like pressing a button.
Hello Bun !
I searched high and low to help this fellow and found nothing.
Thanks for the tip and hope that he/she will solve the problem.
Hi Guys, I have seen the mic hole but didn't realise it was a reset button too?? don't want to damage it?
The seller on ebay luckily seems v apologetic and helpful and is trying to get me a ROM.. as to how that can be installed when there is no recovery mode (visible) / windows drivers etc I have no idea :(
wondering whether to try pushing something into that hole now!
thx, B
When the battery is low (even 57%!), or when the tablet is not 'happy', it will refuse to boot. It happened twice on the ICOO tablet, another Allwinner A13 tablet. I would 1st try to charge it for an hour, and then hold down the power button for long, like a minute. and see whether that wakes up the tablet. It is ok to poke into the mic, you got to be very gentle though. I did it twice to my X6 tablet, it woke up just like that.
Hi bun,
I tried very gently pushing a paper clip into the hole. there was no resistence for a good length, then some soft material... so I got worried and immediately removed it. I don't think there's a button in there! I'll try a good long charge. but remember it DOES turn on, show the little android character, then a green android image, then sits with a flashing android logo forever. so it does boot up, it just doesnt get past that point.
thx B
I really need help. My android Allwinner A13 won't come on past the Android logo it's just flashing. It crashed last night and now I am stressing trying to get it back on. Please someone help. I have stuck a paper clip into the mic hole and that's done nothing
download a working firmware from internet and use livesuit to reflash tablet, no other option i think.
1. the mic trick,for me doesnt work..cause when i took apart my tablet..there was absolutely nothing behind the mic hole,no button..and the motherboard was 1/2 inch to the right of it..so i dont think the "mic trick" is valid
2. i got a email from a supplier showing the recovery mode settings. they are as follows
Press the power button for 10-15 seconds to turn off, and then press the power button for 3-5 seconds to turn on.
Keep charging. Press the "Volume Minus" button at the same time to press the power-on button for 10-20 seconds. To restore the factory settings.
Best Regards
now this is where your going to run into some trouble..cause this key combination is darn tricky!!...on mine it only worked once out of probably 50 attempts by pressing POWER and VOLUME + (UP) together...you can try it as the lady in the email instructed..but havnt found that holding the power and volume down button has done anything even after holding it down for 3 min straight...if you have sucess with this please let me know exactly what you did..(im talkin down to the micron!!..well not literally of course but you get my drift lol.)
hope this helps

Hey, Look at This Bear Walking Like a Human and Peeking In a Trash Can
We may be similar to monkeys, but who knew bears were so similar to us?
We may be similar to monkeys, but who knew bears were so similar to us?
The question of what bears do when they think nobody's watching may finally have been answered. Now that we know, we kinda wish we didn't. Before you look, let me warn you, this bear's got an itch and he's not ashamed to scratch it.
The bears have been at the Adirondack Animal Zoo for the past seven years.
There may not be a stronger bond than that of mother and child. That was proven in spades when this mother bear saved her cub from oncoming traffic on a Canadian highway.
Tornadoes and thunderstorms rampaged through the Midwest Sunday (November 17, 2013), killing several people in Illinois and leaving a path of destruction.
Aaron Rodgers isn't the only one who got hurt during the Green Bay Packers loss to the rival Chicago Bears this past Monday.
You're about to find out what goes on in the woods when animals think no humans are around watch.
This bear was dumpster diving at a restaurant in Colorado Springs and found so much delicious food it decided to just take the entire dumpster.
Find out what this Bear has been doing to get this enacted! I'm not sure a "Hard Side" tent would make much of a difference!
Watch this video. Did the Band of Horses song make you cry? That's okay. That's most people's response. We know, we know -- how could this video actually be horribly offensive? Well ...

USB Mass Storage Question
Wednesday 06th of June 2012
Background:I have a car with a built in USB port in the OEM radio. With this USB port i can play music as long as the USB deivce (USB stick, Hard Drive etc) is formatted FAT32. Previously I had a Droid X and with that set to USB Mass Storage it worked just fine. It would scan the removable SD card and find the music and then I would have selections on the radio for Artist, Genre, Album, Song and Random. If i connected the Droid X to my Windows Computer i only had one drive added and that had the contents of the removable SD card.Now move to the Droid 4. If I set it for USB Mass Storage and connect it to my computer i now get three (3) drives show up 1. Moto Cast as a CD Drive format 2. MOT as a FAT32 format (internal storage) and 3. Removable Disk as FAT32 format (removable SD Card) So now my car is not seeing the Removable SD drive it is seeing the Moto Cast Drive which is in CD format and will not recognize either of the other memory locations (internal or removable) So my question is. Is there any way to make the removable SD card the first storage device seen by the USB port in m

My wife's Galaxy Note (also running ICS 4.0.4) has 'USB Utilities' under [Settings > More settings >], so why doesn't the GS3, I'm wondering? Instead there's: 'Kies via Wi-Fi'.

USB Mass Storage Mode 4.1.1 (root?)
Tuesday 09th of July 2013
So my sister accidentally deleted the folder with all her pictures on her HTC One X 4.1.1, and while we are finding many sites on how to recover the photos, apparently, it can't be done without USB Mass Storage Mode. As it turns out (I'm sure many of you know this by now), 4.1.1 no longer features USB Mass Storage Mode. She has tried the app Dumpster, and many tutorials on recovering loss data on HTC One X, but none of them work. Does anyone know of a sure fire way to recover the photos? Is there a root that offers USB Mass Storage Mode, and if so, will rooting her phone allow her to recover the deleted photos? Any help on this will be truly appreciated.

Proof of Life Electronic Payment Authentication Improves Efficiencies, Reduces Administration Costs and Curtails Fraud
PALO ALTO, CA / ACCESSWIRE / August 26, 2014 / AGNITiO, worldwide market leader in voice biometrics announces the successful deployment of a secure biometrics-based Proof of Life authentication system to millions of South African citizens receiving social security benefits and services, with partner Net 1 UEPS(Universal Electronic Payment Systems) Technologies, Inc. ("Net1"), a leading provider of payment solutions and transaction processing services.
The South Africa Social Security Agency (SASSA) has deployed and is using the Net1 electronic grant payment disbursement system with the AGNITiO Voice iDauthentication engine. Net1 chose to use the AGNITiO Voice iD engine to accurately identify beneficiaries based on its proven technology leadership and track record in government applications. Now, beneficiaries can prove their existence by simply making a phone call instead of traveling long distances and waiting in queues.
The integrated Net1 UEPS system has been rolled out to 10 million, one of the world's largest voice biometrics deployments; and is saving SASSA millions of dollars per year, one of the most successful Proof of Life implementations ever.
"Together with Net1, we have provided a means for South African citizens to access their grants quicker, easier and more securely by simply making a phone call," said Philippe Vinci, Executive Vice President of Marketing and Sales for AGNITiO.

What kind of money we looking at? Does it include expenses if travelling from, say, northampton?
A well established schools ICT company requires a technician with own vehicle to work with clusters of schools on day to day support. Ideally with a background in cc3 or cc4 support you will be solving problems, advising on software and hardware issues, managing own time etc and everything else that comes with good support in the primary sector. This is to cover a currently vacant post and could start monday for the right person. CV to firstname.lastname@example.com
What kind of money we looking at? Does it include expenses if travelling from, say, northampton?
although i think he pays for travel from school to school he wouldn't pay for transport from there, unless you are able to do a short term contract whilst he looks for a more perm guy
money wise normal salaries for this role are around £20-23K dependent on experience probably 80-100 per day for temp
does that help?
Thanks buddy
is this two schools in a day or one william?
I think some schools buy into half a days service and some to a full day, sorry I can't be much more help than that without giving away the rosta. Travel between sites is expensable though

Wayne R. Bryant
Wayne R. Bryant (born November 7, 1947) is an American Democratic Party politician, who served in the New Jersey State Senate from 1995 to 2008, where he represented the 5th Legislative District. He is also a convicted felon for corruption. Before entering the Senate, Bryant served in New Jersey's lower house, the General Assembly, from 1982 to 1995 and on the Camden County Board of Chosen Freeholders from 1980 to 1982.
While in the General Assembly, Bryant served as Majority Leader from 1990 to 1991.[1] Upon the death of longtime Democratic Senator Walter Rand on January 6, 1995, Bryant was selected to serve the remaining term, and has been serving in the State Senate ever since; Nilsa Cruz-Perez was selected to fill Bryant's seat in the Assembly.[2]
Bryant served as a delegate to the Democratic National Convention on four occasions, in 1992, 1996, 2000 and 2004.[1]
Bryant has been an Attorney at the law firm of Zeller & Bryant, L.L.P. The firm announced in an advertisement in the February 12, 2007, edition of the New Jersey Law Journal that Bryant would be retiring from the firm after 33 years, effective March 1, 2007.
Bryant is the former Chairman of the Senate Budget & Appropriations Committee, and the Joint Budget Oversight Committee. He also serves as a member of the Education Committee, the Joint Committee on Public Schools, and the Intergovernmental Relations Committee.[1]
Controversy and indictment[edit]
Bryant has been referred to as the "king of double dipping" by a newspaper in southern New Jersey because he has collected salaries from as many as four public jobs he held simultaneously in New Jersey. Between Bryant, his two brothers, his wife, his son and his sister-in-law, the family holds ten public jobs in New Jersey and earns almost $700,000.[3]
On April 20, 2006, it was reported on the website Politics NJ that Bryant found his son, Wayne Bryant, Jr., dead in his home. Bryant's son worked for the New Jersey Network Television Station, and had won two Emmy awards.
On September 18, 2006, a federal monitor's report charged Bryant with pressuring officials at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey to hire him for a no-show job for which he received a $35,000 annual salary. In his position as chairman of the Senate Budget Committee, Bryant delivered a total of $12.8 million in state aid to the school during the three years covered by the no-show job.[4] As of September 25, 2006, Bryant stepped down from his position as chairman of the Senate budget committee — and resigned from the committee entirely — amid increasing pressure from legislative leaders.[5] The probe against Bryant expanded, and state and federal investigators at the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of New Jersey demanded records from several public institutions and agencies where Bryant or his law firm, Zeller & Bryant, have worked. One of the notable places was Rutgers University Camden where Bryant received over $130,000 for teaching law school classes. This salary was considered suspicious, as the Rutgers Camden Law School was lobbying and received $11 million from the Camden City Redevelopment fund which Bryant was involved with.[6]
On March 29, Bryant was indicted on corruption charges for his alleged involvement in funneling millions to the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey in exchange for a no-show job allegedly provided by R. Michael Gallagher, the former dean at UMDNJ's School of Osteopathic Medicine who has also been indicted with Bryant. He also faces charges of mail fraud, wire fraud, and bribery because of his acceptance of salary from the University of Medicine and Dentistry, Rutgers University-Camden, and Gloucester County Board of Social Service while doing very little work.[7]
On November 18, 2008, Bryant was convicted on all counts. On July 24, 2009, District Judge Freda L. Wolfson sentenced Bryant to four years in federal prison.[8]

Each value basket includes one piece of hand-battered fried fish—halibut, walleye, or cod—shrimp, clams, or chicken along with a half order of hand-cut chips and coleslaw.
Mac's Fish & Chips
After spending seven seasons with the North Stars, Tom McCarthy finished his NHL career in Boston, but still he couldn't shake his Minnesota roots. In 1991, he transformed an old St. Paul gas station into a full-fledged fish shack. Since taking over the operation, Dan and Tom Flanagan have grown Mac's—the namesake remains—into a restaurant named one of the five best locales for fish and chips by CBS Minnesota, serving hand-battered cuts of fried cod, walleye, and halibut with baskets of hand-cut fries. As plastic lights shaped like walleye hang over the outdoor patio, cooks accompany the meals with sides such as coleslaw, cheese curds, and homemade bites of salt-water taffy, Poseidon's favorite adhesive.

This is one of those scientific categories in which it's better to come in second: According to a new study published in the journal Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention, men in the U.S. are more likely to die of cancer than their female counterparts.
However, unlike other studies that attribute the gender divide in cancer mortality rates to differences between men's and women's preventive care strategies, as one example, the take-away in this case is that men develop some form of the disease more often than women, according to one of the cancer researchers who worked on the study. —KA
Our research suggests that the main factor driving greater frequency of cancer deaths in men is the greater frequency of cancer diagnosis, rather than poorer survival once the cancer occurs," says study researcher Michael B. Cook, PhD, BsC, of the National Cancer Institute.
The study is published in Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention.
Cook says that if investigators "can identify the causes of these gender differences in cancer incidence, then we can take preventative actions to reduce the cancer burden in both men and women."

US Lags Behind Israel & S. Korea with Allowing Women in Spec Ops Units
Nobody likes change.
We've done several posts about women in combat and Special Ops from a wide range of view points. We even interviewed a female soldier attached to an ODA team in Afghanistan. The issue has never been about women being able to meet the standard or do the job, I have no doubt that women could do both. My own daughter is nine years old, and runs circles around her brothers when it comes to being mentally tough. She's first in the water, first off the rock jump, and beats them to the bottom of the pool. Much to my happiness she's a straight A student, and isn't interested in the military (sigh of relief) anyway. There is no doubt in my mind that women can perform, and meet the standards. Is the US military system structured to integrate, and will the standards be lowered are other issues all together.

There fighting Arabs armies mostly, hardly anything a decently trained Mil cannot handle, the problems arises when you are fighting an enemy that is more on equal military power where the cracks will show. That being said you should gets some vids of them shooting there rifles in swimsuits.
ak1134 Gunluvr You're both right. There do exist all-female infantry units, such as Karakal. I don't recall ever seeing a mixed-gender infantry unit, though it is entirely possible that a Karakal squad may perform joint patrols/checkpoint security with another unit. There are plenty of women who serve in the Magav (Mishmar HaGvul) a paramilitary border police, which is responsible for security in the West Bank (spot the much darker green uniform). Those who serve in the Magav typically are sent there during their mandatory draft. The Magav chain of command is civilian, and is outside of the IDF. That's not to say women perform poorly. There are plenty of female drill instructors and specialty skill instructors throughout the IDF. A significant portion of all instructors are women, meaning they need to be better than the trainees with that skill. I'd say that in the mid-2000s, my ballpark guess is that at least half of the instructors in the sniper schools as well as the sharpshooting school were women. This is part of a SOF school. During the final part of a course, if the trainees deploy to the field, their instructor(s) will of course deploy with them - both male and female. Of course, don't forget that a "deployment" in the IDF doesn't mean 6 months separated from families and friends. Most soldiers go home 2-3 weekends per month during mandatory service, and many missions see them back at their bases at the end of each day. In some uni
Your wrong IDF women do patrol with men in the westbank. They run check points, respond to emergency situations and offer support. They do so in small 6-8 person teams or in company size. For the record that IDF pic above is fucking beautiful.
Agree. Nice to here from a boot on the ground.
Truth is women excel in sniper schools and intell and for me EOD (little Fingers to get inside smaller places) but truth be told body strength will be the a problem unless it's Helga the power lifter from Russia. It's not mental toughness but physical prowess.

The Inactive Hazardous Sites Branch, within the Superfund Section of the DWM, is responsible for oversight and approval of the assessment and remediation of all historical, and any recent accidental releases of hazardous substances and pollutants with the exceptions outlined below. The Branch oversees remedial actions, conducts any necessary enforcement of assessment and remediation at sites deemed to be a priority, and conducts the work itself at orphaned sites when state resources are available for such.
Note that often people are confused by the name of the Branch and the Act. "Inactive Hazardous Sites" by definition are any areas where a hazardous substance release has come to be located and would include active and inactive facilities and a variety of property types. The term "inactive" refers to the fact that cleanup was inactive at large numbers of sites at the time of program enactment.
The Branch is organized into East, Central, and West Units. The Branch also has a separate unit dedicated to implementing the Pre-Regulatory Landfill Program. In addition, the Branch implements the Bernard Allen Program. Click here for a regional map.

It's come to light that the Flathead County, Montana Prosecutor's Office and the Flathead County Drug Task Force has been caught, red-handed, trying to get a client to fire Tim Baldwin (a Constitutional attorney) because they don't like him.

What a wonderful display this must have been!
Thank you Mel
Yes the orange torii's wound their way up the mountain side amongst the maple trees and bamboo. I could have stayed there the whole day!
Really great photo Paul!
I really wanted to visit this place on my trip to Kansai, but unfortunately time was short.
Thank you nikuyakun!
I hunted this place down – I have so many fond memories of Japan
Fantastic Photo Paul. Love the colour, it's so basic, yet so complex!
Thanks Daniel – The colour attracted me too
Well composed. I like how you've used the paving below to dictate the horizon, not the wood above.
Thank you Stephen – I actually had to use a slow shutter speed to capture this and hence have some photos where people came around the corner – leaving a blur in the photo. If people are keen I could upload that version too.
love this fantastic colour and composition
I think I've been to where this was taken. Japan is a magical place. Great shot!

I'm following a wiki on how to make Smplayer use the GPU in the netbook integrated graphics chipset, but I'm stuck at one of the first steps, installing VAAPI.
I installed
libva1 and
vainfo by using
sudo apt-get install libva1 vainfo, but when I run
vainfo it says:
libva: VA-API version 0.32.0
libva: va_getDriverName() returns 0
libva: Trying to open /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/dri/i915_drv_video.so
libva: va_openDriver() returns -1 vaInitialize failed with error code -1 (unknown libva error),exit
I install and i965-va-driver and all that have name libva or vaapi.
Please help me. Netbook dell inspirion 1018. Intel atom 455.
