February 14 is known as the most romantic day of the year. If you want to win over your love and make Valentine's Day a success, check out these five free apps.
I'm torn about publicizing this, but iPhone owners need to know that their Messages app could become unusable or their iPhone could reboot automatically because of a bug. A basic text message can cause this behavior and, as you can imagine, folks are using this for nefarious purposes. I won't post the offending text message here, but you can read about a workaround at 9to5mac.com.
I'm looking forward to the June 8–12 developers conference, during which Apple is expected to show off iOS 9 and announce new products. Apple has already confirmed that new devices compatible with their HomeKit platform will launch in June, so many are expecting the Worldwide Developers Conference to feature this forthcoming platform. In announcing HomeKit, Apple said it would be used with devices that control a home's locks, lights, cameras, doors, thermostats, plugs, switches, and more. Smart-home devices are becoming increasingly popular, and a platform that integrates their function and gives them a common interface would be a huge boon — and a big step forward for the industry. The timing is right.
Details of iOS 9 are continuing to leak as we get closer to the June announcement of this new version of iOS at the Worldwide Developers Conference. 9To5Mac is reporting that Maps in iOS 9 will now include transit directions — a feature that was rumored for iOS 8 but wasn't ready in time. Now it's said to be ready and will include subway, train, and bus information.
Into The Circle (Free) is a ridiculously addictive, endless physics challenge that requires precise rhythm and proper vector throttling in order to advance to the ever higher levels. The freemium game is inspired by the sport of curling, and though I couldn't watch even five minutes of the real thing, it translates well to the hybrid platform-like application represented in this game. One try and I guarantee you will not want to stop trying to get into the circles.
If you have an Apple Watch, you're using a new font developed by Apple dubbed "San Francisco." That font is only available for the Apple Watch and developers cannot use on the iPhone or iPad. That could change with iOS 9, expected to be announced at Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference in June. The San Francisco font was designed to be more legible, especially on small screens, but that could also benefit the iPhone and even iPad.
Now that the Apple Watch has been available for a month, some experienced users are developing strong opinions about the best and most useful apps. And they've taken the time to post short lists of these.
Do you have an idea for an app but lack the programming knowledge to begin building it? In this weekly blog series, How to Unleash Your Inner App Developer, I will take you, the non-programmer, step by step through the process of creating apps for the iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. Join me each week on this adventure, and you will experience how much fun turning your ideas into reality can be! This is Part 16 of the series. If you are just getting started now, check out the beginning of the series here. (This post has been updated to Swift 1.2, iOS 8, and Xcode 6.3.)
In my previous blog post, you learned how to add Core Data to a project and design entities in a data model. In this post, you will learn how to generate entity classes from the entities in a data model and use them within your app. You can get the latest version of the iAppsReview project at this link.
It seems like I have been waiting for an app-enabled smartwatch since my calculator watch days in the early 1980s. I'm still waiting, because while the Apple Watch runs apps as extensions of the iPhone's screen, those apps still run on the iPhone. Apple has said that developers will be able to write apps that run natively on the Apple Watch, but it hasn't committed to a date. Perhaps June's Worldwide Developers Conference will shed some light on this limitation.

3 Reasons Why Your Neck is Always Tight
If you had to pick one place where you regularly carry the most tension in your body, what would you choose? I'm willing to bet you chose your upper trapezius muscles.
The upper trapezius muscles seem to be (in my experience) some of the most overused and abused muscles in the human body. Many people I see are, either consciously or unconsciously, in a constant shrugged posture: their shoulders are by their earlobes and necks are pulled forward. Why is this?
There are a few factors that contribute to tight upper traps:
- Posture. Sedentary individuals seldom remember to sit upright. Often times, you see people with significant flexion in the thoracic spine, protraction of the cervical spine (neck) who are hunched over their computers. Forward head posture will place extra stress on your vertebrae. According to chiropractor Dr. Jason Queiros, "Every inch you hold your head forward, you add 10 pounds of pressure on your spine. Let's say you're leaning into your monitor by just two inches, that's 20 extra pounds that your back and spinal column have to endure." The muscles in your back and neck need to compensate for this imbalance.
- Breathing. Stress individuals have the propensity to overuse accessory muscles for breathing like the scalenes, sternocleidomastoid, and the upper trapezius, rather than the diaphragm. The tonic muscles in the front of the body shorten, while the phasic muscles in the back lengthen. Neck breathing facilitates a constant "shrugged" position of the shoulders, which are going to put your upper trapezius muscles into overtime.
- Shoulder stability. The overworked upper trapezii may prevent the other shoulder stabilizers and rotator cuff muscles from functioning as they should. The lower and middle trapezius, the serratus anterior, the rhomboids may all be dysfunctional or under-active as a result.
Now, the way most people look to alleviate tight traps is through stretching or massage. While these modalities can be extremely effective, they are usually short-lived in their relief.
To nip the problem in the bud, you need to address all three of these elements above simultaneously. Surprisingly, changing your breathing first may favorably impact the other two areas. When the breath is out of whack, the body cannot function optimally!
Now, conjunction with adding some breathing drills into your daily routine, some supplementary shoulder stability work could do you some good. Here are a few of my favorite exercises:
- Scap push-ups
- Y's and t's
- Cable external rotation
- Bear crawls
- Wall slides
- Reverse shrugs
- Serratus pull-overs
- Band tears
What's most important, throughout all of these movements, is to make sure you're not shrugging your shoulders, otherwise these movements will be ineffective. I often find myself tapping my clients on their shoulders to remind them.
If you want to find provide your traps with some relief, corrective exercises and breathing drills are going to be the most effective methods to lessen tension. Once you're aware of it, you'll probably be surprised to find out just how often your body instinctively reverts to a shrugged position. The key is consistency. Let some of your other surrounding muscles do their job and give your traps a break…

It's been a decade since Natalie Maines said a few choice words about George W. Bush and set off the biggest flame war in country-music history. Overnight, the Dixie Chicks became pariahs, and the role suited them: They broke with Nashville, hooked up with Rick Rubin and recorded their tautest, most tough-minded album, 2006's Taking the Long Way. Now, Maines returns with a solo LP – and she wants no part of country whatsoever. Mother, co-produced by Maines and Ben Harper, is a rock album, with nary a fiddle or pedal steel in earshot. It's serious and at times grim, full of midtempo songs in brooding minor keys. The straight-forwardness is in Maines' choice of repertoire: songs by Harper, Eddie Vedder, Jeff Buckley and the Jayhawks, most of them tastefully rootsy. Too often, the music feels a bit limp, and the buttery harmony backups of her fellow Dixie Chicks are sorely missed. But there are some surprises: The title track is the famous Pink Floyd ballad, which in Maines' stately reading comes off as a lament, not as a rant. The album hits its stride with the more spunky material, like Patty Griffin's "Silver Bell." It's a breakup song – but it sounds a whole heck of a lot like a kiss-off from Maines to her old Bush-era foes: "How you been?/I'm doing well/I hear you're digging a hole to hell."

Unveiled: Latest program announcements (locked) Congolese music theatre, an epic production of Wagner's Tristan und Isolde, and the National Play Festival. The Bacchae There is an important cautionary tale in this version of The Bacchae and it has to do with not losing sight of one's self. Greens appoint Bandt to arts portfolio The MP for Melbourne was appointed as arts spokesperson on Monday and has already gone on the attack. Lynne Lancaster Tuesday 3 September, 2013 This detailed account of the company's history and major personalities is marvellously researched and beautifully presented. 'By its theatres and its ballet company a country is known.' Hot off the press from Wellington, the Royal New Zealand Ballet have produced this excellent book as part of their birthday celebrations. Lavishly illustrated, it is a medium sized 'coffee table' book, very well coordinated and edited. It includes poems and – most pleasing for dance scholars and academics – a well set out table of contents and a great index, as well as listing all the works performed by the company to date. Particularly fascinating for this reviewer was the intertwining of New Zealand and Australian ballet history, with some famous names working in both countries, including Poul Gnatt, Graeme Murphy, Harry Haythorne, Amy Hollingsworth and Kristian Frederickson, just to name a few. The book is divided into four main sections, with over 50 contributors. Part one is an overview of the company, which reveals the interesting observation that only two New Zealanders have served as Artistic Directors for the company so far (Russell Kerr and Bryan Ashbridge); the current Artistic Director, Ethan Steifel, is the second American to be in charge. Much of the book is in the form of personal stories, collected memories and opinions. There is an excellent, extended opening chapter, a biography of the Royal New Zealand Ballet's first Artistic Director, Poul Gnatt, which looks at his Danish heritage and the extensive Danish influence at that time on the company (continued later under successive Artistic Directors). The breathless, whirlwind energy of the company's second Artistic Director, Russell Kerr comes through in the section about his tenure. Later came Una Kai, who brought a stiffening, challenging, very different Balanchine influence. Another of the company's inspirational leaders was Harry Haythorne, who – judging by the articles about him – was much loved. In the other sections, hair-raising stories are told of various overseas tours (particularly one in China), a death-defying leap in the ballet Tis Goodly Sport where a ballerina almost was killed, and a drastic van crash, among other things. Jon Trimmer tells many exiting tales in his chapter in the next section 'Dancers and Choreographers' and there is a terrific chapter by Patricia Rianne. What I also found fascinating is the backstage work mentioned – e.g. the use of Benesh or Laban notation, as mentioned in 'Scripting the dance' by Peter Boyes. Choreographer Douglas Wright receives several mentions, as does principal dancer Ou Lu. There are also great insights into the work of the costume designers, music directors etc, as well as the Ballet's School and Friends. Another section needing a special mention is the educational side of things now known as 'Tutus on Tour' (similar to the Australian Ballet's 'Dancer's Company'). A theme running throughout the book is the company's struggle for financial survival. We have seen the Royal New Zealand Ballet several times here in Australia, though not nearly enough. One of their most popular ballets was Dracula, which toured to Melbourne; I last saw them in Wollongong with their Romeo and Juliet. This detailed account of the company's history and major personalities is marvellously researched, well written and beautifully presented. A delight for dance lovers, and a fascinating insight into the triumphs, pitfalls and hard work that goes into keeping a national ballet company alive. Start dropping hints for Christmas presents now. Ei Blot Til Lyst ('Not only for pleasure'). Happy birthday, Royal New Zealand Ballet! The Royal New Zealand Ballet at 60 Edited by Jennifer Shennan and Anne Rowse Hardcover, 210 x 240mm, 344pp, RRP $60.00 300 colour and black and white photographs ISBN/SKU: 9780864738912 Published by Victoria University Press About the author Lynne Lancaster is a Sydney based arts writer who has previously worked for Ticketek, Tickemaster and the Sydney Theatre Company. She has an MA in Theatre from UNSW, and when living in the UK completed the dance criticism course at Sadlers Wells, linked in with Chichester University. Share Tweet

STOCKTON - San Joaquin County Parks and Recreation and the Delta Fly Fishers will host a Catfish Derby on Saturday, June 5, at Oak Grove Regional Park.
The stark reality of the Memorial Day observance on Monday hit home hard when it was announced at the beginning of the program at East Union Cemetery that one of Manteca's own sons serving in Afghanistan had been wounded in the chest.
It was a rag-tag fleet of vehicles from a World War II Jeep Willy and 1965 Mustang convertible to a slew of PT Cruisers and even a Bentley that made their way down Yosemite Avenue late Monday morning.
Library Park – once the site of one of Manteca's first baseball diamonds – could be well on its way to being a true downtown square by this time next year.
Sister Ann Venita of St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church is inviting all seniors to the annual celebration of the feast day of the church's patron saint.The sit-down luncheon will be held in the St. Anthony's School gym from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Wednesday, June 9. Admission is free; however, all is encouraged to bring friends along. One does not have to be a Catholic to attend. For more information, call 823-7197.
Two-year-old Alexandria Marrero was the youngest member of the audience that attended the annual Memorial Day observance at the Ripon Cemetery on Monday.
LATHROP – The combination of Pastor Mike Dillman's Vietnam War testimony and the solemn tolling of the bell during the roll call of Lathrop's fallen veterans made for a stirring and poignant Memorial Day observance on Monday.
A special group of men led Monday's Memorial Day parade – all having served in the military in World War II and now in their 80s and 90s.
Manteca's downtown farmers market returns to Library Park today from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m. to start a weekly run through the end of August.
Phil Waterford asked for a moment of silence.
They fought in the Battle of the Bulge, on the beaches at Normandy, on Iwo Jima, in North Africa, and on countless other battlefields.
Manteca's most popular ongoing summer diversion – the downtown farmers market – returns to Library Park Tuesday.
It was a golf cart challenge between some 15 to 20 residents of the Del Webb at Woodbridge community in the northeast section of Manteca Saturday morning – an event where laughing was more important than winning..
It could have been the story of the Navy Seal who gave his life so others could live, or the 5,800 crosses honoring those who paid the ultimate price for freedom.
Gold Star Mothers and family members from throughout the Northern San Joaquin Valley gathered Saturday to honor their soldiers and sailors who sacrificed their lives for their country while feeling each others everlasting grief.
Page 553 of 766
Is Manteca the next Castroville?
A water conservation coordinator is being sought by the City of Ripon to keep an eye on water use in the community.
The St. Vincent de Paul Society has helped untold number of needy families and individuals in Manteca and surroundings for decades. Young men studying for the priesthood have been able to continue pursuing their religious vocation, thanks in part to the assistance provided by the Bishop's Seminarian Fund of the Diocese of Stockton. And a number of area youth have been able to play in Little League with the help of generous donations from organizations whose mission is to step up when there's a need.
The third $100 Manteca Bulletin Easter Egg was found in a bush and behind a sign at the Promenade Shops at Orchard Valley.

REEF has just completed our final assessment report for our five-year Wellwood Restoration Site monitoring project. Before I share some results from our study, let me give you a little background information and please visit our website to view our full report http://www.reef.org/programs/monitoring/wellwood. The M/V Wellwood, a 122-meter Cypriot-registered freighter, ran aground on August 4, 1984, on Molasses Reef off Key Largo, Florida, part of the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary (FKNMS). The ship impacted the reef's upper fore reef and subsequently remained aground for 12 days. The grounding destroyed 1,285 square meters of living coral reef and injured 644 square meters of coral reef framework. Prior to the grounding, the area was a transition zone with high relief coral formations. The grounding transformed the area into a flattened, barren pavement covered with coral rubble.
The study area of this project included a portion of the grounding area that is being restored and two adjacent reference sites. The Restoration site surveyed included restoration modules and contiguous low profile hardbottom areas adjacent to and in between the restoration modules. Nearby high profile reef, ledges, and undamaged/unrestored reef were not included as part of the Restoration Site. A north and south undamaged reef area were both used as two control sites to compare fish sighting data between the Restoration area and the natural (control) reefs.
REEF's study focused on fish assemblages and not the coral and invertebrate communities. A team of Advanced Assessment Team REEF Experts conducted Roving Diver Technique (RDT) surveys in addition to belt transect surveys on the Wellwood restoration site and two adjacent natural reef sites seven times during Year 1. The team visited the sites once prior to restoration (May 2002) and 13 times after restoration was completed, monthly for the first three months, quarterly for the following year and semi-annually thereafter. An average of 12 surveys of each survey type was conducted during each survey effort. While REEF surveyors used the RDT surveys to collect sighting frequency and abundance data on fishes over all three reef areas, the belt-transect method was used to collect density and biomass data on fish taxa. These two methods used together give us a snapshot of how the restoration site is recovering in terms of fish assemblages as compared to the two non-impacted, adjacent reef areas.
Obviously, the most notable observation a diver makes when diving on the Restoration site is one of just how long it takes coral reefs to recover after devastating ship impacts. The Restoration site shows little resemblance to the surrounding non-impacted reef sites. The areas surrounding the Restoration site are high relief reef areas dominated by reef building corals with some very old colonies of Star coral (Monastrea annularis) and Elkhorn coral (Acropora palmata), old to the tune of thousands, not hundreds of years old. Age is important here since it takes a long time for coral colonies to rebuild structure and relief that attract different fishes over time. The smaller overall fish populations and absence of many species of fish on the damaged site are both conspicuous and the lack of coral structure makes it easy to destinguish the Restoration area from the surrounding reefs even 23 years after the initial ship grounding. However, there are signs that fishes are very slowly recruiting onto the Restoration site.
During the monitoring period (2002 - 2007), a total of 165 species were recorded at the Restoration site, 189 species at the North reference site and 207 species at the South reference site. The Restoration site recovery is clearly aided by the addition of restoration modules (2002), increasing the amount of available habitat suitable for reef fish communities, think vertical habitat here, and recessed areas underneath these modules for fish to shelter. At the Wellwood grounding site, the overall fish diversity as well as density and biomass of most key fish families continue to be less than that of the two nearby, non-impacted reefs that were selected as monitoring reference sites. Parrotfish and surgeonfish appear to be responding the quickest to the restoration efforts, grazing along a recovering hard coral landscape currently dominated by soft corals (Gorgonians). Nearly absent today on the damaged area are sightings of grunts and snappers, both of which are seen in high frequency and abundance on surrounding reef sites with plenty of relief for them to take cover. Residency of fish, movement patterns and habitat usage are all important indicators of reef recovery. So are linking coral, invertebrate, and fish studies to see a more complete picture of how the Restoration site is improving. There are signs outside of the slowly improving trends the data show such as a little Redspotted hawkfish that has taken residence on one of the modules with lots of Ken's Staghorn coral affixed.
Many more studies are necessary to properly evaluate recovery dynamics for reefs and since most reef recoveries worldwide are hampered by other anthropogenic impacts such as overfishing, excessive nutrient loading from human pollutants, and global warming stresses, these case studies are critically important in developing mitigation strategies for damaged reefs. For the full report on our Wellwood findings, please visit our website http://www.reef.org/programs/monitoring/wellwood. REEF would like to thank the many individual REEF members who dived on this project over the past 5 years, as well as Quiesscence Dive Shop in Key Largo for dive support, and Ken Nedimyer for photos and his ongoing coral replenishment work. And finally, our thanks to the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary for contracting REEF for this project. We hope that this work will continue in order to monitor the long term changes in fish assemblages on the Restoration site.
REEF is happy to announce our new partnership with Caradonna Dive Adventures as our travel provider, beginning with our 2009 Field Survey Season. As many of you already know, Caradonna brings years of dive travel acumen and great vendor partnerships, both of which will undoubtedly assist REEF in making our Field Survey Program once again our signature Citizen Science program.
After all, it is each of you that make all that REEF does in and out of the water possible. We are closing in on 120,000 Fish Surveys in our world-renowned fish sightings database. Christy Semmens (REEF Director of Science) and I individually review all of the 1,000 plus surveys entered into the database every month. We know all of you by name but it is only on our Field Programs that REEF Staff and Board members have the opportunity to put the names to the faces and share the fish surveying exhilaration with you.
Many of you who use dive travel services have probably used Caradonna in the past and know how good they are at setting up exhilarating dive trips. With Caradonna, you'll almost have a third dive buddy right there with you, wherever you might be! We are previewing our 2009 Season (below) and will be posting additional details and more trips to the website in the coming weeks. Doris Pfister at Caradonna will serve as our REEF liaison. Doris and I have worked hard these past couple of months to coordinate this exciting schedule.
So without further ado, a preview -
2009 Field Survey Schedule Preview
Additional destinations that we are working on include St. Vincent, Maui (Hawaii), Bermuda with Ned DeLoach, and Cancun. Stay tuned to the REEF Trips webpage.
For all bookings, please contact Doris Pfister, our REEF Dedicated Sales Consultant at firstname.lastname@example.com or by phone at 1-877-295-REEF(7333). Details and more trips will be added in the next few weeks and months, so please check the REEF Trips webpage often.
Have you ever wondered how trip locations are decided? There is a suite of considerations for Field Survey locations, including REEF data needs, diving and tourist infrastructure, costs (evermore important with rising travel costs), partnership and outreach opportunities, fish abundance and diversity, invasive species, educational value, resource management needs, and yes, fun too! In 2009, REEF staff are planning improvements to our Field Survey program including increased capacity building while the REEF group is onsite and after the trip is over, and increasing the opportunities for resource managers to partner with REEF and utilize the valuable data you collect. By fostering regional capacity building efforts wherein local stakeholders begin to carry the surveying efforts beyond single events, there is increased likelihood these data will be used for ongoing management decisions.
REEF eclipsed a milestone this week when the REEF Volunteer Survey Project Database passed the 120,000 survey mark. This represents over 150,000 hours of underwater survey time from our volunteers. The achievement comes almost 15 years to the day when the first REEF fish survey was conducted off Key Largo, Florida, on July 17, 1993. Today, the program is going strong throughout the coastal areas of North and Central America, the Caribbean, Bahamas, Galapagos Islands and Hawaii. In the tropical western Atlantic region alone, 96,469 surveys have been conducted at 6,085 sites and 795 fish species have been recorded. Of course, improving your marine life identification skills, building your lifelist of sighted species, and conducting surveys are a lot of fun. But have you ever wondered what good are all of these data?
Volunteer data collection, or citizen science, provides a valuable alternative for scientists and resource agencies needing information but lacking sufficient resources to gather it. In addition, involvement in data collection leads to greater awareness about marine resources and creates a stewardship ethic among key user groups.
In addition to providing data summaries on the REEF Website, REEF staff provide raw data to scientists and resource agencies. REEF data have been used in the development of stock assessments (Kingsley 2004), in the evaluation of trends of fish species (Semmens et al. 2000), to measure the effect of marine protected areas on kelp forest fish communities (Semmens et al. in prep) and coral reefs (REEF 2003), as an indicator of population pressure on natural resources (Burke and Maidens 2004), to evaluate interactions between species and species-habitat relationships (Auster et al. 2005), to asses the effect of restoration efforts in areas of damaged reef (REEF 2008), and to asses the status of a group of reef fish species that is experiencing significant declines (Ward-Paige et al., in prep A and B). REEF volunteers have been instrumental in the identification and removal of exotic species (Semmens et al. 2004), in the identification of new species (Taylor and Akins 2007; Weaver and Rocha 2007) and morphological variants of known species (Pattengill-Semmens 1999), and in the documentation of previously unrecorded range extensions (M. Taylor and J. Van Tassel, Pers. Comm.). PDFs of most of these articles and a full listing of scientific papers and reports that have used REEF data are included in the Publications section of the REEF Website.
REEF extends a big thank you to the 10,000+ volunteers who have contributed to this database over the years and we are looking forward to the next 120,000 surveys! Be sure to visit the Top 10 Stats page to see a quick rundown of REEF survey activity. You can also explore the data more in-depth by visiting the Database section of the REEF.org Website.

The struggle of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
Can Kazakhstan become a world power?
Andrew Binner | 17 Aug 2012 10:13 GMT | Sport, Latin America, Argentina, Australia, Brazil
The closing ceremony of London 2012 brought with it an exciting new adventure for Brazil with the handover to Rio 2016.South American sport is gaining new exposure and increased opportunity as Brazil's neighbors Argentina sail into unchartered waters by taking part in the first ever Rugby Championship tournament on Saturday.Buenos Aries became a venue for a leg of the IRB seven-a-side competition and it was an instant success. There is a love for the game there with a huge following and playing base.The new tournament replaces the old Tri-Nations, contested between rugby union's three most successful teams ever in last year's world cup winners New Zealand, South Africa and Australia. Argentina's inclusion comes as the International Rugby Board seeks to broaden the boundaries of the game and also recognises the huge steps Argentina has taken as a rugby nation over the last decade.Rising talentThe catalyst for the inclusion of Los Pumas in this annual tournament came when they finished third at the World Cup of 2007 in France – where they defeated the much-fancied hosts twice!However, Argentina still suffered from a lack of continuity in playing time. They played a handful of tour matches every autumn, usually against weaker sides and subsequently European clubs were reluctant to let their star Argentineans play for them.Consequently it was a unanimous opinion that this team needed a chance to compete regularly against the best sides in order to improve further.Despite a thriving playing base in Argentina, the country's leagues are still amateur. However, such is their natural playing talent that many of the players get snapped up on professional contracts in Europe and play for top clubs in England and France.Argentina Coach Santiago Phelan this week announced the first ever Rugby Championship match day squad and well over half the players are based in Europe and have previous world cup experience.With players such as Juan Martin Hernandez (fly half), Rodrigo Roncero (prop) earning his 50th Test cap and captain Juan Martin Fernández Lobbe (number eight), Phelan has some enviable talent at his disposal. Combining this experience with the finishing power they have in wings Gonzalo Camacho and Horacio Agulla (who both play their rugby in England) and this is a team who should be capable of playing expansive rugby and scoring tries.This core of senior players will have to guide their younger colleagues through the tough encounter at Newlands Stadium in Cape Town, a venue with a favorable record for South Africa.Despite an experienced team full of Heineken Cup (Europe's premier club competition) veterans, they will be given a stern first test against 2007 World Cup winners South Africa.Baptism of firePhelan and the Argentina supporters must be realistic with their expectations and be prepared to take some beatings in their first few outings and probably their first few years in the competition whilst they adjust to life in the big leagues.However Argentina is a notoriously hostile environment for any touring side and they have consistently taken the scalps of some good teams there with their strong forward play. They must use this advantage; aim to win their home games and progress from there.Despite the fact that Argentina will struggle in what many consider the most intense rugby competition in the world, there is no doubt that Los Pumas and rugby as a whole will benefit from the permanent inclusion of some South American flair into the calendar.

From http://www.dn.se/kultur-noje/kulturdebatt/per-schlingmann-arbetslinjen-ar-dod-lange-leve-arbetslusten/
GOD is spelled Globalization, Urbanization and Digitizing
half of the jobs that people perform today within 20 years will be replaced by machines.
That's a weird article. If we turned the argument around and considered that globalisation, urbanisation and digital can have positive effects, we can get away from the idea that "full employment" is a good thing. That's a meme from the 19th Century; that the only worth is in working.
As long as the physical and emotional needs of the people are sated, it will permit them to pursue expression and intellectual activities.
So what if a job is automated away? That's the sort of argument that turns men and women in plow-horses. We should automate everything that is practical to automate but yes, we should consider what is practical.
A&E in NI: a problem of emergent use versus public service development
I have always been fascinated by emergent development. This is the unintended design from actual use rather than the laid down design by architects or town planners.
We see this in everyday life in the development of "cow paths".
An architect or town planner says you should walk this way? And the public use a slightly different route and that's because the people know best. They aren't wilfully destroying carefully coiffeured grass ways, they're trying to get somewhere. Planners and architects need to think about this.
The same goes for public services. This is an article from BelfastLive.
Just under half the people who turned up at Northern Ireland's A&Es last year were not emergency cases, shock figures have revealed.
Statistics provided by the Department of Health, Social Services and Public Safety (DHSSPS) also show only 14% of patients arriving at casualty units had suffered major trauma and needed immediate care.
And yet we hear nightmare stories of people being kept on trollies for hours or how our emergency medical services are completely overburdened. It's obvious the problem is one of design, not one of staffing.
In light of this, we should be re-designing our public services to meet what the public plainly want. They want to get seen by a medical professional.
I've previously proposed that a better solution might be to put a paramedic station in every town, maybe built onto the side of a health centre or GP practice. Somewhere where local people can flock and always be seen in an emergency. The current system of A&E and Out of Hours GP plainly isn't working so we have to start to think smarter. If every large business tends to have a first-aider on every floor, why doesn't every town have an emergency station?
The naming of the place is important too. What may be a sprain to you or me, is a break in the mind of someone who is hurt. It has to be described as the place you go when you have a medical emergency and the definition of emergency is entirely subjective.
Remembering… Northern Ireland in 1998
As I parked my car yesterday, I caught the eye of a middle-aged woman standing waiting nearby. In a typical "up-the-country" Northern Irish accent, she blurted out "I hope your car is okay, the wee skitters have taken mine." Her frustration was palpable.
I was reminded of the weeks leading up to the Good Friday Agreement and I remember my girlfriends car being stolen. We were parked outside a friends house and the arrival of the police prompted a flurry of opening windows and beating the air with magazines. Two days later, on the day of the vote, the car re-surfaced with a heavy weight in the back along the Grosvenor road and was duly exploded in a controlled fashion by the Army.
I mentioned that may have happened to her car. Same time frame, same size of car (small hatch back with R plates). She shook her head and continued to tell me all of the business of the day; the make, the model, that her brother was coming to get her, that it still had R plates and the first couple of letters from the registration. I smiled politely and decided to wait until her brother arrived which he did about 2 minutes later.
I bid her goodbye and scurried across the road towards my next meeting and something made me look across the road where I spotted a small, recent model white Fiesta with R plates and the same first numbers on the registration. Of course, I did what any normal human would do and ungracefully loped back across the road, waving my arms like a lunatic to an extremely grateful lady.
Yesterday a man was also shot. There's no doubt that as a former IRA commander and the various implications in his life that he was no innocent. And there's no doubt that as a "community worker", he had an army of people rallying around him. But someone walked up and shot him. I've heard rumours of loyalists, or republicans or drug lords or turf wars but really I'm left with this single thought.
In 1998, most of us turned out and voted for peace. And then most of us switched off again. Because we switched off, we have moved barely an inch forward from that vote and barely an inch forward from the supposed ceasefires of the past.
We have to switch back on and vote for a civic society because the alternative is a world where cars are turned into bombs and men, whatever their background, are shot in the street.

Each intravenous drug user contracting Hepatitis C is likely to infect around 20 other people with the virus, half of these transmissions occurring in the first two years after the user is first infected, a new study estimates.
The work, led by researchers from Oxford University, suggests that early diagnosis and treatment of Hepatitis C in intravenous drug users could prevent many transmissions by limiting the impact of these 'super-spreaders' (a highly infectious person who spreads a disease to many other people).
Working out 'who has infected who' in fast-spreading diseases such as influenza is often relatively straightforward, but in slow-spreading diseases such as Hepatitis C and HIV, where instances of transmission are spread over months or years, it is extremely difficult. The new approach, developed by a team from Oxford University, University of Athens and Imperial College, combines epidemiological surveillance and molecular data to describe in detail, for the first time, how Hepatitis C spreads in a population.
A report of the research appears in this week's PLOS Computational Biology.
'For the first time we show that super-spreading in Hepatitis C is led by intravenous drug users early in their infection,' said Dr Gkikas Magiorkinis of Oxford University's Department of Zoology, lead author of the study. 'Using this information we can hopefully soon make a solid argument to support the scaling-up of early diagnosis and antiviral treatment in drug users. Helping these people and stopping the spread of Hepatitis C is our ultimate target.'
The World Health Organisation has identified Hepatitis C as a major public health problem: up to 180 million people worldwide live with the virus, most are unaware that they have been infected and remain undiagnosed for more than 10 years. 20% of those infected will develop cancer or liver scarring (cirrhosis) after 20 years of infection, at which point the only treatment is liver transplantation, which costs around £100,000 ($160,000) for each patient.
Unlike other forms of Hepatitis there is currently no vaccine available for Hepatitis C, although there are effective treatments. The virus mainly transmits through contaminated blood and before 1990 the major transmission route was blood transfusions and blood products. Since screening for blood transfusions was introduced, after the discovery of the virus in 1989, the only significant transmission route for Hepatitis C is now intravenous drug use – users are at risk through the sharing and re-use of syringes.
'Working out how many people are likely to be infected by each 'super-spreader' of Hepatitis C, as well as how soon they will be infected, has been a puzzle for over 20 years,' said Dr Magiorkinis. 'Our research has resolved this issue and paves the way for a modelling study to show what kind of public health interventions could really make a difference. Our approach should also be very useful to those studying HIV.'
The research draws on data from four Hepatitis C epidemics in Greece, using information on 943 patients in treatment studies between 1995 and 2000, and around 100 genetic sequences representative of the epidemic taken from frozen plasma samples collected between 1996 and 2006.
