Reimagining Child Soldiers in International Law and Policy
Jorgensen, Nina H. B., Melbourne Journal of International Law
REIMAGINING CHILD SOLDIERS IN INTERNATIONAL LAW AND POLICY BY MARK A DRUMBL (OXFORD, UK: OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS, 2012) 239 PAGES. PRICE 17.99 [pounds sterling] (PAPERBACK) ISBN 9780199592661.
An annual reminder that the practice of child soldiering endures globally is provided by the 'list of shame' published by the United Nations Secretary-General. (1) The international focus on the phenomenon has resulted in high profile criminal trials of those allegedly most responsible for the recruitment and use of child soldiers in specific conflict situations. It has also led to the release and attempted reintegration of former child soldiers. But there is a long way to go in balancing the scales of retributive and restorative justice in respect of this relatively novel area of international law. In his book, Reimagining Child Soldiers in International Law and Policy, Mark Drumbl provides a timely and compelling contribution to a continuing discussion by first understanding and then re-imagining the entire legal and political architecture surrounding child soldiers.
Drumbl's aim is not modest. He is critical of what he views as the international community's tendency to 'replay the same narratives and circulate the same assumptions' about child soldiers. (2) These narratives and assumptions relate to the 'themes of vulnerability, frailty, victimization and incapacity' (3) characterising former child soldiers. Drumbl argues that this well-intentioned 'reflexive response' is nonetheless short-sighted and verging on the 'palliative'. (4) The book therefore 'aspires to refresh law and policy so as to improve preventative, restorative and remedial initiatives while also vivifying the dignity of youth'. (5)
The book is moulded in rich prose and illuminating vocabulary. Key terms and concepts are highlighted throughout the text and a preliminary overview of Drumbl's central thesis can be provided by weaving together these threads. The 'normative, aspirational and operational mix of international law, policy and practice' (6) developed by a multitude of actors constitutes the international legal imagination. The modern concept of children associated with armed forces or armed groups reflected, for example, in the 'Paris Principles and Guidelines on Children Associated with Armed Forces or Armed Groups' ('Paris Principles'), (7) which defines as children those under the age of 18, provides the definitional scope for the purposes of the book, as emphasised in ch 3. There are different possible images of the child soldier or the former child soldier as a faultless passive victim, an irreparable damaged good, a hero or a demon and bandit. According to Drumbl, the international legal imagination has become saturated by the faultless passive victim image of the child soldier. This image is a legal fiction. It must be re-imagined. It fails to account for the under-explored and under-appreciated notion of youth volunteerism, itself connected to the idea that children are capable of being social navigators who understand, especially when adolescents, more than the international legal imagination wishes to acknowledge. Drumbl puts forward a model of circumscribed action which is presented as a spectrum or continuum embracing diversity in the sense that '[a] circumscribed actor has the ability to act, the ability not to act, and the ability to do otherwise than what he or she actually has done'. (8)
Each conflict has a before, a during and an after and each of these stages may be relevant to transitional justice, which
designates the range of processes by which societies come to terms with histories of widespread violence, how they reckon with terrible human rights abuses and how people within afflicted constituencies come to live together again. (9)
In terms of transitional justice options, a preoccupation of the book is the rationale for excluding children from the criminal process and the ensuing policy result which may be correct even though the rationale overshoots its mark by offering too much protection. …

A negative attack ad against a Republican state House candidate could be investigated by state officials in the wake of the May 20 primary.
Marc Woerner, who lost his GOP bid for the 169th state House seat, said negative ads were mailed about him illegally from a group calling itself PA Taxpayers for Integrity. He provided copies of the mailers, which give a Montgomery County address for the group.
But no group with that name is registered with the Pennsylvania Department of State as a political committee, according to Ron Ruman, press secretary for the department. Political committees must file a registration statement within 20 days of receiving total contributions of $250.
In his complaint, Woerner maintains that PA Taxpayers for Integrity sent out its ads illegally.
"It's not going to change the outcome of the election, but if someone wants to join the political process, they need to do it legally," Woerner said. "Whoever spent money on those ads needs to be exposed."
Under campaign finance law, complaints filed with the state department are confidential, Ruman said.
"We can't confirm that we've gotten a complaint or are investigating anything," Ruman said. "The law doesn't permit us to do that. Once it gets here, as far as we're concerned, we can't say anything about it."
If state department officials believe a complaint has merit, it is referred to either the Attorney General or the relevant district attorney, Ruman said. But even then, the state department is not allowed to disclose anything about the complaint, he said.
Woerner, who serves as a West Manheim Township supervisor, garnered 24.5 percent of the vote in the primary, finishing third out of four candidates.

I've owned my TLs for four years now and can't fault her, one of the last on an 02 plate (only 21 being registered in 2002). Never let me down in any way what so ever, starts on the first plug that gets a sniff of fuel never missing a beat right up to sixth gear with ya head down, arse up, a grin on me chops as big as the one when i first got laid !!! .Yes, in the bends it twitches like a cat with a banger up it''s arse, but then thats just one of the many ingredients that is supersports bikeing. Power, where do i begin ?. I'm not the heaviest of blokes weighing in at 11 stone and 5'ft 10" high making the TLs, for some one my size one of two things, either the scariest encounter in your life which will shit stain the back of your leathers only a nano second before you piss stain the front of them, or, as in my case, find yourself chuckin your belly as far on the tank as you can in a futile and some what lame attempt to keep the front light from looking for pidgeons roosting in the fuckin trees !! Just on the throttle alone, slide your ass back in the seat, a flick of the clutch, kick in to second and so the roller coaster ride begins again, then when in third she becomes a bit taimer, it still rears up only this time she shows some mercey allowing your arms to remain attatched and in there sockets (just)!! with reguard to the claims surrounding tank slapping under heavy acceloration, IT'S ALL TRUE, my life changing moment brought home the reality of my being a mere mortal at 130 mph when traveling a route very well known to me, not a busy piece of road, and with a very long straight (2.5 miles approx) as i tootled along at around 120 mph i approached a car, positioned myselfready to glide past it, in doing so applied some throttle(i gave it a fist full) fuck me!!!!!!!!!!!? was my initial reaction whack whack slap slap ! lets just say i'm one lucky b@$!&%d ! that was the first of many .fuel wise don't expect econemy 100 mls to the tank with a hefty hand & 150mls if you drive like me mum ! no problems with the gear box or clutch though go easy with the wheelies as this can shorten clutch life as the gearbox oil ends up water proofing your driveway, be warned! Granted Vtwins arn't every ones cup of tea but unless you've owned one of these babys and gotten acquainted properly, it only shows the lack of skill in the rider that slags the TLs down ,i know my bike inside out , how it handles , yes, the rotory rear shockers are shite but set them properly and you'll be quite suprised just how good they can actully be, get some good sticky boots on her and bobs yer uncle . I used to love my in line 4's but now Vtwins tick all the right boxes, and you save money on tyres as the front ones never on the floor . 9 out of 10 for this bike the only bad point is i can't find any where to fit the ashtray !!!!!!!!!

"...their delivery radiated the wide and seemingly
contradictory emotional range contained in these
works–passionate reverence, plaintive joy, aching
peace–with stunning power and sensitivity... seemed
to stretch space and slow time, so that at the end of
every piece, though only minutes had passed, one had
experienced a lifetime of expressions... in all cases, the
melodic lines were creatively ornamented in the best
Baroque tradition, hardly surprising from an ensemble that
is so clearly comfortable in any century.
"A particular pleasure... chorus sang... with
vigor and joy... admirable... graciously... give-and-take
of the frequent imitative counterpoint... dramatic and
forceful on the one hand... singing with caressing
tenderness and melting beauty... crisp
articulation... expressive... within a quite narrow
dynamic range of pianissimo to mezzo piano.
"Compelling... unfailingly dramatic performances
that grappled with real issues in the music and
real issues the music is about."
"One would be hard-pressed to find an amateur choral
group in New England with a more adventurous spirit, higher
musical standard and sense of serious purpose than John
Ehrlich's Spectrum Singers... We marveled at Spectrum's
resilience, pride and serious chops."
"Rare beauty, full of dynamic nuances and
distinguished by impeccable intonation."
"The Spectrum singers brought... focused
intensity to the soldiers and peasants they
portrayed. They had a whole range of character to
themselves, and they conveyed it perfectly."
"Ehrlich and company offered a deeply felt
performance... The chorus, which has made a
specialty of singing without accompaniment, knows
how to blend into a harmonious entity. The
sweetness of tone was particularly evident in some
of the quiet passages. When called upon, too,
Ehrlich and his ensemble could produce
hair-raising tumult."
"The singers sounded secure in even the most
demanding passages."

Our latest showcase is from Les Marriott of Confidential Visions.
One of the things we've noticed recently is that more and more women are realising that being photographed in a sensual way is amazingly empowering. TV programmes like "How to look good naked" have made us think about beauty in a different way and that is a really good thing.
Although we believe that the most important thing is that women feel good about themselves, it's impossible to underestimate the effect that sexy photographs of their women have on men! That's why we've decided to showcase the concept of a Honeymoon Portfolio. This is where a bride-to-be presents her husband-to-be with an album of beautiful photographs of herself as the ultimate personal gift.
Les is a qualified British Institute of Professional Photographers portrait photographer and Confidential Visions aims to show your full sensuality with images you will both look at time and time again and that will keep any groom's mind on the delights of the Honeymoon!
Confidential Visions know that it is very brave for a woman to do these shoots, so they go at your pace, whilst being encouraging. They also don't allow anyone else to come along: it's totally private and confidential.

my sweet husband…
is a wonderful basketball coach….
those of you who regularly visit KISS THE GROOM know how much i love to share images of our children….but today i wanted to take a minute to gush about my sweet husband (i adore him of course) & i would not be able to embrace photography with such devotion without his support…
over the last couple of years, he started a basketball program…it started because of our eldest daughter's love of basketball…so he built a team from scratch with beautiful Mykela & our niece, Jari as the foundation…. and they have won ALOT of tournaments….it has been amazing to watch the team develop….these girls are fantastic athletes….and i think my husband may be a bit of a saint….he not only runs practices & goes to tournaments all over the place…he also picks up any player that doesn't have a ride to practice…he is so generous with his time & knowledge….let me take a moment to gush even further…sorry but i am so proud i cannot help myself….his devotion is giving these children confidence & opportunities they would not have otherwise….they are strong capable athletes.
my husband, Lee Moore was/is an incredibly talented basketball player….he played not only at a Division One college, but also professionally in Holland, China & Indonesia….he has trained with some very prestigious coaches & has learned so much along the way…i admire they way he selflessly gives his time & commitment to developing young athletes….it is so inspiring to watch….
about a year ago he decided to try make his program a non-profit organization…
i secretly rolled my eyes when i saw the mounds of paperwork he to fill out…it was
a long & tedious process but he did it….he now has a 501C (#27-1457827) and
ALT ELITE CLUB BASKETBALL is an official non-profit
devoted to the development of young athletes….
if any of you live in southern california (santa barbara to calabasas) & have a child interested in basketball, he is always trying new players out….feel free to email my husband (& head coach) directly at firstname.lastname@example.com …..he also has an academy for developing new players…
his basketball program runs on good will &
donations….if you want to support his program
contributions are greatly appreciated….
a little more sweetness...

Jan 16-2011 , 05:49PM
Growing up with a sister who was and still is a basketball star made my life so complete. My father was more than a dad. A coach , A mentor. These images are absolutely reminiscent of my childhood and of a dedicated father.

Pot Committed Definition
My question has to do with being "pot committed". I often hear, "He had to call the all in bet because he was pot committed". How do you know when you are pot committed? Is this a bigger factor in tournament play than in a ring game?
Top 3 Beginner Rooms
Being pot committed simply means that you have so many chips already invested in the hand relative to your remaining chips, and the odds, that you have to call. Folding would be a mathematical mistake. Being pot committed happens much more in tournaments than in ring games. The reason for this is usually because as the blinds keep increasing in a tournament, the play is forced and there is more clashing with weaker hands. In a ring game there is as much time as you need, so players are all-in less. Also, the goals in the ring game are different than in a tourney. In a tourney you can play more recklessly, trying to move up the ranks. If you lose your stack you aren't nearly as concerned as if it were real money.
The typical scenarios of when you might be pot committed are as follows. Number one, if you don't have many chips left and you already invested some in a hand -- say being in the big blind when it was large or raising some only to be reraised. You know you don't have the best hand, but because you don't have many chips left and the fact that the pot is so large, you have to call. The next case of being committed is when you raise enough preflop to put more than half your chips in the pot. Sure you can still fold if someone reraised you, but since you have so many chips in the pot, it wouldn't be correct. See, say you have 100 chips and raised 50, only to be reraised to 100. The pot is now at least 150 chips, and you only have to put in 50 more to play. At that point it is correct by the math to call because you are getting 3:1 on your money and most hands in holdem aren't that bad.
On a final note, this can be a little deceiving. It is true that you should still call in this spot with hands that you think are better than the odds the pot is laying. The problem is that in the long run you will lose because what this really boils down to is going even money with a better hand. In the end you put in 100 chips against someone else's 100 chips when they had a better hand. So basically what I'm trying to say is you can't back yourself into correct decisions by building the pot with your own chips. Winning poker consists of having the best hand at showdown, and to do that, you need the best starting hand most of the time.

Please put aside Saturday, June 27th and Sunday, June 28th for Field Day.
We will be in the same old place Fort Williams Park in Cape Elizabeth (in the field south of Portland Head Light) (follow the signs for access). If you're mot sure of the exact location, talk in is on the PAWA repeater (146.73 (-) (100.0 Hz).
We will start setup at 10:00 AM on Saturday and Field Day starts at 2:00 PM. The PAWA Field Day BBQ starts around 3 PM on Saturday. We will be operating one station on 80 through 10 meters.
We will be needing folks to help set up the site (putting up the antennas and getting the operations trailer ready). Of course, we will need operators for the event throughout the 24 hour period and we will need a crew afternoon on Sunday to break things down.
If you're a well established ham, come on down to do some operating! If you're a new ham, come on down and get your feet wet on HF in a fast paced environment!
The BBQ will be the usual fare of hot dogs. A member of the club will provide the hot dogs, buns and condiments. The club will provide the grill and someone to cook. If you want something other than hot dogs, please bring what you want and we will cook it for you. Please bring your own beverages (non alcoholic). We also ask that you bring a side dish (such as potato salad, coleslaw, three bean salad, green salad (and the like) to share. The BBQ is free for PAWA members and $ 10.00 for non-members.
Seats are always in short supply. If you have them, bring along your own lawn or camp chairs to sit on. If the weather is good, the bugs are usually out. Be sure to bring your own bug spray.
By the way, while you're visiting the Field Day site for a hot dog or two, how about going in the operations trailer and make a few Field Day contacts for the PAWA effort! Enjoy the fast paced action of HF operating in a contest. We can sure use the help in operating.

When back of the grid teams start to sniffle its all unfair that some teams have got so much more than them, but neglect to realise these big teams have been there 20 times longer, won races and got the T shirts then sorry, but i wont sob with you. The sport is the same over hyped and priced sport is was when you joined it, you knew the way it works. Just get on with it. Thats not saying I dont empathise with you, its just that most people realise that few make it in this game, your losses must be way more than the team can be worth, so its a bad biz deal. But just dont blame the sport, it has happened to many before you and there are a queue of other rich dreamers to take a turn soon. If old timers like Tom Walkinshaw could get it wrong in a sport he knew inside out dont beat yourself up too much that you are still nowhere

Or even this year???
He sounds pretty ticked off @ Godefroot.
From Yahoo News...
Germany's Ullrich hits back at team boss
BERLIN, July 27 (Reuters) - German cyclist Jan Ullrich said he would speak to his T-Mobile team manager about comments questioning his commitment.
T-Mobile manager Walter Godefroot had criticised Ullrich, saying the 1997 Tour de France winner "cycled to live", while six-times Tour de France winner Lance Armstrong "lives for cycling" after the German failed to gain a top-three finish at the Tour for the first time on Sunday.
"I cannot let that go," five-times tour runner-up Ullrich said late on Monday on a television talk show.
"You should ask the people who I work with and not someone like Walter Godefroot who I speak to on the telephone twice a year -- if at all," he added.
Ullrich said he was extremely angry about Godefroot's comments but would try to talk to him at the HEW Cyclassics event in Hamburg next week.
"I will clear up what he said. If he says it to my face I will take the appropriate steps," Ullrich said, without specifying what those might be.
Sounds like, as far as T-Mobile, he's either gonna quit or get sacked.
Any thoughts on where he might end up?

The start of production on Marvel Studios' The First Avenger: Captain America is just a month away and negotiations are still ongoing for principal actors. It was announced that Dominic Cooper had been signed on to play Iron Man's dad. Then, Hayley Atwell, who will play Captain America's love interest, Peggy Carter, let slip that Tommy Lee Jones had joined the cast in an unspecified role. Now, Deadline has reported that Neal McDonough is in talks to play one of Cap's war buddies, Timothy "Dum Dum" Dugan.
In the Marvel comic books on which the movie is based, Dum Dum Dugan was a circus strongman who helped Nick Fury (played by Samuel L. Jackson in the Iron Man movies) escape the Nazis, he later joined the British army. When Fury formed his elite team of "Howling Commandos," he made Dugan his second in command. The team would share many adventures with Captain America throughout the war, until the "Star-Spangled Avenger" took a fateful plunge into the Atlantic Ocean that took him out of the fight.
Dugan is also an active participant in the modern Marvel Universe, though it's unclear why he hasn't aged. For a time, he even took over for Fury as director of S.H.I.E.L.D. Given the character's longstanding association with Fury, it's likely that Dugan would also appear in the S.H.I.E.L.D. spin-off movie that Jackson said would follow The Avengers, so if McDonough nabs the role he could be portraying the character for some years to come.
The First Avenger: Captain America was written by Stephen McFeely and Christopher Markus and will be directed by Joe Johnston. Chris Evans stars in the title role, with Sebastian Stan playing his sidekick, James "Bucky" Barnes, and Hugo Weaving playing the evil Red Skull.

Whether you're a meatatarian or consider yourself more of a piscivore, YEW seafood + bar at Four Seasons Hotel Vancouver has you covered. Yes, it was a true celebration of Surf 'n' Turf, hosted by the finest chefs in the meat and seafood business. Four Seasons Hotel Vancouver Executive Chef Ned Bell of YEW + bar joined forces with Connie DeSousa and John Jackson of Calgary's distinctive CHARCUT Roast House located at Le Germain Calgary, for a special culinary event lovingly referred to as "Lobster & The Pig."
This five-course dinner pitted Executive Chef Bell of YEW, an Ocean Wise fish lover, against John Chefs Jackson and Connie DeSousa, two award-winning meat-aholic chefs.
The evening kicked off with a champagne and seafood reception followed by an inspired dining "lobster and pig" collaboration including creamy lobster bisque with hints of vanilla and pineapple, as well as Chef Bell's Lobster "Cobster" Salad. These sublime starters were followed by an extravagant main course, where chefs DeSousa and Jackson showcased their family-style ham hocks, Roast House Blood Sausage and Hominy. To complement, dishes were paired with local wines from Sumac Ridge Estate Winery, Meyer Family Vineyards, Tinhorn Creek Vineyards, Le Vieux Pin, Painted Rock Estate Winery, and Orofino Vineyards. Inventive YEW cocktails by Head Bartender Justin Taylor, made their debut, including The Claw, garnished handsomely with a generous lobster claw, as well as The Hoof, garnished with bacon.
DeSousa and Jackson are the talented chefs responsible for the acclaimed meat-centric cuisine that has earned CHARCUT a place on both enRoute and Maclean's magazines' "Canada's Best Restaurant" awards lists. Connie is also known for her third place finish in the first season of "Top Chef Canada."
"Ned is a chef's chef who we have wanted to collaborate with for a while now," says Jackson. "Thanks to VISA Infinite for pairing us up. This night had all the right ingredients for an ultimate surf 'n turf experience."
For his part, Chef Bell is outgoing and passionate about his craft, with an unrelenting energy and enthusiasm for sustainable farm-to-table food. Naming his own food philosophy "globally inspired and locally created," Bell believes that a great meal begins with premium ingredients, sourcing the best of what is available locally and seasonally.
"Our collaboration with CHARCUT on this Surf n' Turf dinner was a match made in culinary heaven," Chef Bell says. "The 'Lobster & The Pig' was a perfect twist on the classic Surf n' Turf theme… well matched with our unique culinary styles and restaurant personalities. This was an evening of fun and indulgence for those who have a passion for great food, cocktails and wine!"

Mississippi forward Murphy Holloway has been named the Southeastern Conference's freshman of the week.
The 6-foot-7 forward from Irmo, S.C., picked up two double-doubles in wins over Tennessee and Georgia. That extended his streak to three straight, a run that coincides with Ole Miss' rise in the SEC West standings.
Holloway had a career-high 18 points and 13 rebounds as he helped the Rebels dominate Tennessee in an 81-65 victory. He then had 12 points and 10 rebounds in an easy 69-47 win over Georgia. That gave him an average of 15 points and 11.5 rebounds per game last week.
Holloway recently took over the starting role at power forward and is averaging 8.7 points and 6.5 rebounds per game this season.
Alabama's Alonzo Gee is the SEC's player of the week.

Transformers 3 Still Atop US Box Office
Horrible Bosses nabs second place
The battle between the Autobots and the Decepticons continued to dominate the box office across the pond this weekend as Transformers: Dark of the Moon easily held on to the top spot, adding $47 million to a current US total of $261 million.
But the new laugh-fest Horrible Bosses enjoyed a solid, strong opening, arriving with $28 million, a figure enough to beat out Kevin James' latest family comedy Zookeeper, which launched in third with $21 million. The new arrivals meant that Cars 2 slipped down to fourth with $15.2 million, with Pixar's latest currently sitting at $148.8 million after four weeks on release. Bad Teacher rounded out the top five with $9 million.
Larry Crowne slipped down two places, adding $6.2 million to a somewhat disappointing $26.5 million total, while Super 8 was seventh with $4.8 million. Teen rom-com Monte Carlo fell to eighth, making $3.8 million, while Green Lantern was down to ninth and $3.1 million. At 10th, we find Mr Popper's Penguins, with the Jim Carrey comedy adding $2.8 million for a $57.7 million running – or should that be waddling? – total.
To plot revenge against your cruel boss using only statistics, head to Box Office Mojo.

verybody likes to be acknowledged and appreciated for their efforts. Or dothey?
"This project was my baby for over a year. After allthe hours I invested, management had the nerve to pat me on the back and give mea cheap gold pen. How patronizing! I have news for them - I didn't do all thathard work for empty praise or a cheap prize. I did it because I'm the bestperson for the job. I wanted to see it happen and it did. This makes it feellike my accomplishments are ordinary. I didn't just fix the fax machine orsomething."
Most companies have a formal way of acknowledging employees with suchthings as annual award banquets, top sales awards and certificates. There are acouple major pitfalls to these programs:
The reward is handed down from management and reinforces imbalances inpower;
It can be patronizing to receive a small award for a large accomplishment;
The accomplishment is often a team effort. It fosters resentment when justone person gets the reward;
It creates competition;
The most common flaw of award programs is they often reward people fordoing work they were supposed to do anyway.
The best form of acknowledgment is grounded in the idea that people workbecause they are committed and want to work. This assumes people work forreasons other than a paycheque at the end of the week or an award at the end ofa project. Many people do work for these external reasons but sometimes this isbecause the workplace encourages them to.
Work and accomplishment is natural and should be treated as such. As AlfieKohn observes in Punished byRewards, "When responsible action, the naturallove of learning, and the desire to do good work are already part of who we are,then the tacit assumption to the contrary can be fairly described asdehumanizing."
A Culture of Appreciation
How do you acknowledge others? To answer this, consider a company with anattitude of appreciation that is a routine part of every day. Everyone iscontinually appreciating everyone else. You don't have to be a manager toacknowledge someone else. Employees are aware of the specific projects or rolestheir colleagues are involved in and what their strengths are, and are on thelookout to catch people doing well.
This culture assumes people are out to do their best and regularly noticesthem doing it. Sincere and genuine appreciation is forthcoming. Employees are attheir best because their standards of excellence are their own.
Keys to Better Performance
How do you create this kind of a culture of appreciation?
Avoid awards that set people apart from each other, such as programs forthe top sales person. Only one person can win this award, so only few will try.It also separates winners from losers. Instead have employees aim at beatingtheir own sales from the previous month;
Let employees set their own goals, help them understand how it helps theteam and company, and acknowledge their contribution;
Encourage employees to acknowledge others daily. Set up an informalnetwork, like a newsletter or bulletin board where people can brag about theircolleagues;
Give employees the opportunity during meetings to talk about what theyaccomplished that week. In other words, let them brag about themselves;
Recognize people for their strengths on more than specific projects orachievements. How does each individual's strength contribute to the team as awhole?
Make every employee aware of other's strengths and give them a chance tolearn from one another;
Continually recognize the achievements of the group as a whole. Savor thefeeling of achievement;
Reinforce the value of the work itself. How employees function contributesto the community and their customers;
Celebrate the vision of where the company is going and how the group, madeup of the individuals within it, is helping get there;
Design incentives to award departments as a whole, where everyone isawarded for the group's accomplishments.
Bottom line
Companies with an attitude of appreciation are proud of the achievements ofall employees and departments. They are aware of the strengths of eachindividual in helping realize the corporate vision. Communicating this vision istheir strong point. Acknowledging people this way can dramatically change theway people interact with each other and with customers.

It will make life somewhat more difficult for the bank but it ultimately won't prevent them getting an order for possession
While that might sound beneficial to you. What it will ultimately do is saddle you with more legal costs in the long run as they will be entitled to their legal costs from you if they successful obtain an order for possession and sale. This will reduce the amount of equity that you might have in the property
The bank will engage in a process called asset tracing/tracking. If they can establish that their was an attempt to put the asset beyond their reach through whatever mechanism (trust or otherwise) they are entitled to trace and recover the asset
In addition to the above, the asset you propose to put in trust is already burden by the banks interest, as the bank's consent would be required if you wish to do anything with the property.
What you are proposing, is only that something that may work for non burdened assets

Key global environmental impacts of genetically modified (GM) crop use 1996–2012
Peter Barfoot, Graham Brookes
Against the background of increasing awareness and appreciation of issues such as global warming and the impact of mankind's activities such as agriculture on the global environment, this paper updates previous assessments of some key environmental impacts that crop biotechnology has had on global agriculture. It focuses on the environmental impacts associated with changes in pesticide use and greenhouse gas emissions arising from the use of GM crops. The adoption of the technology has reduced pesticide spraying by 499 million kg (-8.7%) and, as a result, decreased the environmental impact associated with herbicide and insecticide use on these crops (as measured by the indicator the Environmental Impact Quotient [EIQ]) by18.6%. The technology has also facilitated a significant reduction in the release of greenhouse gas emissions from this cropping area, which, in 2012, was equivalent to removing 11.88 million cars from the roads.

Is whatever uploaded or attached capable of being downloaded by someone else? If someone ups a text or mp3 file will someone else be able to download it (so basically file sharing), which would create a whole load of copyright issues?
Additionally what is the ranking information about?
I don't know. I haven't tested it yet. Here's an uploaded image to play with:
I think it just displays the file, whatever format it's in. If it's a doc or whatever then yes, that person will be able to download it. It's essentially the same as having to find an image online and point to it, although this way you can just upload it from your hard drive.
The ranking information on the profiles? It's just another feature that came with paid support, which allows people to see who's made which rank and how long it takes to get there. Some forums can have extra features unlocked with each level but I don't bother with that.

If anyone is concerned about putting their actual birth year into their profile, will it be o.k. if they just use 2014 as the year?
You could, but it won't let you have dates that haven't taken place. So you might as well choose the right day and month from, say, 2000.
I haven't seen the birthdays in action yet, so I don't know if it displays actual years or just says "It's X's birthday on Tuesday/today!"
@DrBeatle - you can't thank yourself, so look for the button on someone else's message. If it's still not showing it might be a caching thing, though it appeared for me straight away.

I'll look into the Thanks thing now. You're right - it doesn't work with my test account either. UPDATE - it's a permissions thing.

New feature: thanks! You can thank someone if their message helps you. The option should be next to the PM button on each of their messages.
How do you un-thank people?
The following people thank Little Piggy Dragonguy for this post:Joe
Looks like you can't. Maybe there should be an Unthank button too, or clicking again removes the thanks. I'll see if I can request the option.
There's also a forum plugin that allows thumbs up/down ratings on posts. Would that be useful to people, or just extra clutter?
17 December 2012
Myself, I think it'd just be extra clutter. I never bother with those when they do appear. That's just me though.
However, I would suggest allowing the changes you made yesterday (with the "thanks" and the "@" etc.) to bed in, and consider the thumbs once we've got used to yesterday's new features.

I'm with the others in not liking the idea of being able to negatively rate a post. The thank you's are a neat addition but what benefit would it bring in giving a poster a minus.
Whats the @ thingy all about and How Do You Do It?
1 May 2011
Yeah, thanks. I typed the '@' sign in the off-chance something might happen and the options came up in the Avatar thread, never got back in time to fix myself. Bit weird seeing the notification appear.

There's something exciting and freeing about tile flooring. Mosaic patterns, traditional coloring and more all provide exquisite texture to a space. The creativity behind tile flooring is limited only to the imagination of the designer himself. Larger tiles make small rooms look more spacious. Using the same style tile from a floor to a wall provides a flowing look. The design options are nearly endless. Mannington's Revolutions Tile Collection offers the beauty and versatility of tile as well as an unmatched durability, thanks to a state of the art technology that provides this laminate flooring with a texture and depth reminiscent of real tile.
Ceramic tile flooring is durable, but is known to chip and crack. While this cracking can happen over a period of years, sometimes these flaws happen in an instant. Take, for example, if you install ceramic tile flooring into a kitchen. Accidentally dropping a can or appliance on the floor can cause a chip or crack. Replacing this cracked tile can be complicated and lead to further damage. Mannington's Revolutions Tile Collection, however, has a leg up on ceramic tile. It looks like real tile. It feels like real tile. The only difference is it's more durable than real tile. There are other advantages to the Revolutions Tile Collection vs. ceramic tile, including: 1. It's less expensive 2. It's significantly easier to maintain, and involves grout-free installation 3. It has a warmer feel underfoot than ceramic tile
Mannington's Revolution Tile Collection is the closest thing to maintenance-free flooring. The laminate flooring features a melamine-impregnated surface with aluminum oxide, making it resistant to dirt and dust. Keeping your floor clean is as simple as using a broom or vacuum.
The Revolution Tile Collection is also the only laminate flooring to hold FloorScore certified, meaning it complies with extremely strict indoor air-quality standards. It is made with over 74% recycled content and is installed without any type of potentially dangerous adhesives.

The New England Patriots have a lot more cap room, thanks to their starting quarterback. Brady has received a three-year extension from the Patriots worth about $27 million. The new deal clears nearly $15 million from New England's salary cap. The 35-year-old two-time league MVP was signed through 2014, and has said he wants to play five more years. The three-time Super Bowl champion will make far less in those three seasons than the going rate for star quarterbacks. Brady currently has a four-year, $72 million deal with $48 million guaranteed.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by stickb I'm wearing this right now! I bought this dress in green for St. Patrick's Day! I'm also wearing it for Easter Weekend. It is so soft and comfortable that I love wearing it! March 26, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Zabaleta51 Ease and Comfort with style Hard to find simplicity and quality dress to make casual or dressy with accessories nowadays. February 23, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Evangeline Lovely Dress It is very pretty, comfortable, and washes so well. No ironing required. I got the navy flowered one and I'm so happy with it. I love it!!! January 21, 2016
Rated 2 out of 5Â by ccjp Lovely dress, but . . . I so wanted to keep this dress. I loved everything about it--the color, the fabric, the styling. The only problems were the tight sleeves and tightness across the shoulders when I reached. It fit great everywhere else. Tight sleeves don't make any sense given the somewhat loose fit of the rest of the dress. Back it goes. January 19, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5Â by RodeoMary Great everything From the products themselves to your customer service, everything in my experience was excellent. I purchased two dresses, old fashioned chocolate covered cream drops, and your lilac scented bar soaps. High quality throughout. Fast shipping too! Thanks for a lovely holiday shopping experience. January 11, 2016
Rated 1 out of 5Â by Alexe Sleeves to tight Long time fan & wearer of this dress. Enjoyed the looser fit for around the house. The new sleeve is tight as can be in the just the forearm which is odd.Not only that the pockets were sewn almost closed together, and the cuffs not sewn down. When I buy a dress I don't want to repair it to wear it. March 27, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5Â by gf Pretty print I purchased the teal print style; it's very pretty. It's great for this frigid winter weather! January 8, 2015
Rated 1 out of 5Â by Texas resident Red dress shrank in wash! Material isn't quality of others that I have purchased. Disappointing Have wanted a bright red dress in that style and material for ages. Ordered and received, wore and washed. Shrank and looks awful. The material is not the heavier corduroy that all of my other dresses were made out of that have been ordered from this wonderful store. So disappointed. December 31, 2014

Teacher Writes "Loser" on 6th Graders AssignmentsCole Gamble
North Carolina Middle School teacher Rex Roland has an interesting method for motivating his students. He calls them "losers."
Mother Patty Clement wants Roland removed from his position as the teacher repeatedly wrote "loser" on her 6th grade daughter's papers. Some parents of Roland's other students disagree. They say, along with the teacher himself, that the use of the "L-word" is entirely a joke, a way for the teacher to relate to his kids. Often times the teacher will reward an overachieving kid by calling them a loser.
Patty Clement is not laughing. She claims her daughter is being bullied. She's started an online petition to jettison Roland, a petition 151 people have signed so far. She claims her daughter receives 100 threatening texts a week. Perhaps that has something to do with her mom trying to oust an apparently popular teacher?
For his part, Roland has apologized, though many think he's done nothing wrong.
Many of you reading can probably remember having a teacher with a far worse sense of humor than this. I recall an A.P. teacher who would call kids losers and it wasn't a joke.
That said, while it seems many, if not most, of Roland's kids get the joke (one former student described him as "the cool teacher that people wanted to be in class with.") teasing kids of any age, especially younger ones, can be confusing and even traumatic for some. I don't know the guy, but I doubt he should be fired. He might just want to find a more clever way to be "cool."

Trees are a very common data structure. Also think of semistructured data. If you don't support that then people will add their own domains to store them in and then they will be out of reach of the query optimizer.

Yeah, something like that.
>How do we avoid recursing infinitely?
Usually by limiting recursion to structural recursion.

Keeping on track with your finances has become easier, as personal financial software programs become more automated and includes new features. Here are six ways to get more out of your financial software, and keep more money in your wallet. (For related reading, also check out Budgeting When You're Broke.)
TUTORIAL: Budgeting Basics
1. Set Up the Automatic Download Feature
Most personal financial software programs now have automatic download features that allow you to connect with your bank accounts online, and pull the transactions directly into the program. This saves a significant amount of time over inputting each transaction manually and making sure the bank balance is correct. This service is free at most banks, but there are a few that charge a monthly fee for this access. Check your bank's rules and policies before signing up.
2. Prepare a Monthly Budget for the Next 12 Months
Tracking your past transactions is only part of smart financial management. You also need to know where you are headed. Plan out your next 12 months of spending, and be sure to include all of your known expenses plus a buffer for unknown ones (such as repairs). Apply the balance of your income left over every month after expenses to either debt repayment or savings. Planning out your surpluses ensures that they are used to your best advantage.
3. Input Bills When Received
One of the least-used features in personal financial software is bill management. You can input a bill when it comes in the mail, along with its due date. The program will warn you when the bill is coming due, so that you can avoid interest and late charges on overdue bills. Some programs also allow you to pay the bills through the software, saving even more time.
4. Dedicate Two Hours Per Month to Review Your Data
Set up an hour mid-month, and another at the end of the month to look over your transaction history and your budget to see if you are still on track. Most software programs have a number of different reports that you can customize. A commonly-used one is a comparison of the month-to-date expenses by category and the budget. You can change the dates to look at any period. You can also compare this month's expenditures to last month. Regularly analyzing how your actual spending ended up, in comparison with what you thought you were going to spend, will prevent you from running into unexpected and costly overdrafts in the future.

5. Track Your Net Worth
Financial software programs can also track your assets and liabilities over time. This will show you how your debt is decreasing and your assets are building. When you set spending goals, also set savings and debt reduction goals so that you know you are on track to build your net worth. When setting loan goals, keep in mind that only a portion of the payment pays down the loan balance, while the rest is an interest expense.
6. Prepare an Income Tax Estimate in Mid-December
With all of your income and expenses in the software program, it's possible to run an early tax estimate so that you know how much to set aside for taxes. Preparing this estimate before year end also gives you options for tax planning, such as increasing charitable donations. If you run a small business from your home, make sure that your business and personal expenses are separate from each other in order to calculate your net business income correctly.
The Bottom Line
Use all of your software program's functions to manage your financial life effectively. Take the time to review your transaction history and tweak your budget. Personal financial planning can make a vast difference in your overall wealth. (For additional reading, also see The Beauty Of Budgeting.)

Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.
