Florean Fortescue (possibly)
Headmaster of Hogwarts (formerly)[2]
Professor Dexter Fortescue was a Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Not much is known about his time at Hogwarts.[2]
As Headmaster of HogwartsEdit
Dexter was made Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in an unknown time period. After his death, his portrait was hung at the Headmaster's office, in order to offer advice to the current Head.[2]
Attack on Arthur WeasleyEdit
- "Insubordination sir! Dereliction of duty!"
- —Fortescue to Phineas Nigellus[src]
Shortly after Arthur Weasley was attacked by Nagini at the Department of Mysteries, in 1995, Professor Albus Dumbledore attempted to wake up the portrait of Phineas Nigellus Black, to tell Sirius Black that Harry Potter and the Weasley children were going to 12 Grimmauld Place. As Phineas expressed unwillingness to help, the portrait of Dexter Fortescue was particularly vocal, as was Armando Dippet and a portrait of an unidentified female Head.[3]
Busting of Dumbledore's ArmyEdit
- "Blatant corruption! The Ministry did not cut deals with petty criminals in my day, no sir, they did not!"
- —Fortescue to Cornelius Fudge and Dolores Umbridge[src]
In 1995, he roared his disapproval at Cornelius Fudge and Dolores Umbridge when the latter explained to the former how she had learned of the first meeting of Dumbledore's Army in the Hog's Head. She explained that Willy Widdershins had been there and had reported back. Minerva McGonagall, also present, commented that she had wondered how Willy had gotten off so lightly after all those regurgitating toilets, and Fortescue erupted, saying that they did not cut deals with petty criminals in his day.[2]
Voldemort's defeatEdit
When Harry Potter went to the Headmaster's office, shortly after Lord Voldemort's defeat and the end of the Second Wizarding War, Fortescue joined the ovation made by the previous Hogwarts Headmaster, waving him his ear trumpet.[4]
Personality and traitsEdit
Fortescue believed in honour and duty, reprimanding Phineas Nigellus for "dereliction of duty" and bellowing at Cornelius Fudge, Dolores Umbridge, John Dawlish, and Kingsley Shacklebolt for cutting deals with petty criminals.
In life, he was hard of hearing, necessitating the use of an ear trumpet before his death, a trait passed along to his portrait self who is seen using it to listen to private conversations in the Headmaster's office and speaking loudly when addressing observers or other portraits.
Behind the scenesEdit
- He may be related to Florean Fortescue, who ran an ice cream parlour in Diagon Alley.
The name "Dexter" comes from an occupational surname meaning "one who dyes" in Old English. It also coincides with the Latin word dexter meaning "right-handed, skilled".
- Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Appears in portrait(s))
- Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Appears in portrait(s))

Any Friends from Ukraine Can Update Us on Situation There?
We all know there is widespread public discontent against their government (elected of course)'s decision to withdraw from talk on closer economic tie with EU. As I know, current president Yanukovych won the last presidential election over Yushchenko primary because Yushchenko failed to revive the Ukrainian economy. And I am also aware that while Yushcenko is pro-west, Yanukovych is pro-Russia. Public discontent is against their government's decision to opt for Russia favor in stead of Western European one.
I like both Russia and Ukraine, both are great nations. Therefore I regret to see that one is oppressing another every step of the way, which is an open secret. I also hope that Ms. Tymoshenko would regain her freedom and have her name clear. The condemnation against her is outright ridiculous.
And if the public opts for western-oriented economy, why stop them from making the choice? Isn't Ukraine a democratic country? Isn't democracy the system electing Yanukovych the Ukraine president? It's has been almost 3 years and Ukraine's economy is still circling around the drainage. Shouldn't Yanukovych and his party worry about the next presidential and parliament election?
So, you guys can share your insights on Ukraine's current situation and development?

Apparently Russia just shuttered the RIA which was viewed as one of the more balanced news agencies, despite being nationally owned.The new agency will be headed by journalist and keen Kremlin supporter Dmitry Kiselev.
The state-owned Voice of Russia radio station has also been closed. The decree was effective immediately.
Of all the state-owned media organisations, RIA Novosti has made the greatest attempt to produce balanced coverage in recent years. This was in part because of its international clients in media organisations around the world. It would have lost credibility otherwise.
But now the agency is being taken over by the Russia Today brand, which for opposition-minded Russians is more of a government mouthpiece, giving carefully selected news with a clear pro-Kremlin bias.
The word "propaganda" - never far from the Kremlin's opponents' lips when they are discussing state-controlled Russian television news - is now also being used to describe the new news agency.
Mr Ivanov was quoted as saying that the agency, which is being dissolved and reorganised as International News Agency Russia Today, needs to make "more rational use of public money" and that it has to be more effective.
"Russia pursues an independent policy and robustly defends its national interests. It's not easy to explain that to the world, but we can and must do this," he said.
For many Kremlin critics in Russia, that phrase suggests this is a sinister move by President Putin, says the BBC's Daniel Sandford in Moscow.
During Mr Putin's time as Russia's leader, RIA Novosti has tried hard to produce balanced coverage for Russian and international audiences, our correspondent says.
Although state-owned, it has reflected the views of the opposition and covered difficult topics for the Kremlin, our correspondent adds.
Mr Kiselev is known for his ultra-conservative views, including recently saying that gay people should be banned from giving blood, and that their hearts should be burnt rather than used in transplants.
This is what being guaranteed to happen when a "democratic" government ignores what its people are demanding:
Hope this wont be another hot spot after Syria.

a bit more agency to Ukraine's president on this.
I recently asked a friend who spend a few weeks in Ukraine over the summer, and she said the couple of people she knows there in Kiev don't pay much attention to the protests any more."He has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to
the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the oppressed go free". ~ Luke 4:18

What happends here is, I suspect, that Russia has enough power to force Ukrania to be his bitch. So the governement have to make Russia happy. People don't want Russia melding on his bussines.
This could be easier, perhaps, if the Ukrania governement manage to communicate the real politic problem to the people, so theres a agrement. I think on the end Ukrania will still be Russia bitch. Russia will not allow any other outcome, I think.
Also the EU is not a happy lalala place. Europe is Germany+Everyone else, with Germany the industrial center, and everyone else "colonies". We (europeans) are Germany bitch. You may find being Germany bitch has a lot of problems, maybe being Russia bitch is not all that bad relativelly.I play mostly in the PS4, but I still love a good PC game
There's a large German gentleman outside my door, brandishing a whip and a ballgag. Send help.
Of course Germany will always hold a lot of power in the EU. They're the most populous and economically strongest nation in the union. They're also a nation whose finances are not in complete chaos, giving them some authority in financial matters. However, and most importantly, they're lending a shit tonne of currency to other member states. It's hardly unreasonable for them to have some conditions for doing so. They have an interest in seeing European finances recover, both to get their money back and because a strong Europe is better for them in general (exports going up, net contribution going down, etc.). One might have issues with the policies they're pursuing, but the whole "Germany is taking over Europe" complaint is a bit tiring.
Also, as a European and a citizen of the EU, I have not once felt like Germany's bitch. I can sympathize with the people in the struggling economies, but times are hard right now and we need to do what has to be done in order to see any improvements.
Beign Germany's bitch is so 40'. No one follow this trend anymore dude.

I'm not sure how international media is addressing this, but in Germany the media's overwhelmingly pro-opposition and paints them as being simply pro-democratic and pro-west.
What remains completely ignored, is how slowly but steadily hardcore nationalists and neo-nazis are taking over the protests and forming the "hard core" of the rioteers, glorifying the protests as an almost mythical "fight for their homeland". If you look closely on pictures and videos, you'll see a lot of right wing symbolism, e.g. in this one:
Celtic cross, 14 for the "14 words" and below it the "88", representing "Heil Hitler".
The far-right party Svoboda is been aknowledged as a legitime part of the protests, next to Klitschko's and Timoschenko's movement. Svoboda's pro-EU and pro-American to the extend the EDL is pro-Israel: As long as it culminates in opposition to a common foe (be it Russia or Arabs), everything goes.
If you're able to read German (or want to try your luck with Google Translate), I recommend this article. I'll see if I can dig up something in English.
That aside, the media's bias here is almost absurd when it comes to scandalizing the Ukrainian police. One article in a center-right newspaper noted how the police in the Ukraine are now demanding permits for building tents, barricades etc. or are forbidding helmets and masks and how all this marks the beginning of an authoritoritarian state. Ironically, all these things have been illegal in Germany for decades now.

It's okay to not like things.
I personally view this crisis as simple as: the Ukrainian government, which is elected, happened to implement a national policy which is not popular. I mean, you cannot expect your elected political leaders to do everything according to their voters' want every moment. Ukrainians find this so urgent they need to correct the mistake and cannot want till next election to do it.
Given the strategic importance of Ukraine, how it positions itself in the international community would be important for all of us, but of course, Ukrainians have the right to make their own choice, and the current Ukraine's administration obviously does not respect this choice of the people.
As I said, I like both Russia and Ukraine, but also no one can ignore the long hostility between the two people.

Note that my use of the word "great" here isn't to suggest unqualified endorsement. I mean "great" in the sense of "larger than life": figures who seem to warp the very fabric of reality around them, who become synonymous with the path of their nation (which must itself be vaguely heroic, which is why Belgium is unlikely to produce a great leader anytime soon.) In other words I'm talking about the De Gaulles of this world: "When I want to know what France thinks, I ask myself."

Putin revived the national glory of Russia, which was almost lost under the corrupted ruling of Yeltsin. Even to this day, after his death for some years, I still wonder: was Yeltsin actually an American spy tasked to bring down the power of Russia?
But for one thing, Putin is a great man to Russia, he is not to Ukraine. He doesn't have right to oppress Ukraine. Let's not play naive, Russia's oppression is THE primary reason for the losing days of Ukraine all those years.
Now Ukrainians are fighting back, those pictures make Kiev almost like a battlefield. It deeply worries me. I exactly recall that one year after the outbreak of the Syria crisis, we started to refer to those once demonstrators as warriors.

Motorola Photon 4G vs. HTC EVO 3D
0. phoneArena posted on 18 Aug 2011, 04:45
As usual, Sprint and HTC brought out the heavy artillery in June with the EVO 3D, a dual-core beast with third dimension capabilities. But this year there is a new player; Sprint and Motorola have renewed their partnership and the first major device from the two is the Photon 4G, another dual core beast with specs that can give the EVO 3D a run for its money. Which 4.3" qHD superphone is right for you?...

"I ordered this invitation for two of my friends' engagement parties and it was so great. I customized the card with their names, and the proof came back exactly how I wanted it. The card was delivered on time, and the fitted rectangular envelopes didn't require any extra postage."
"The invitations came the day they said they would. I absolutely love them. Many friends and family have told me how much they love them. The paper is really great quality."
"My fiancé and I ABSOLUTELY love EVERYTHING about this engagement party invitation! This is the first product we've ordered and will DEFINITELY be repeat customers. We have gotten so many wonderful compliments from our friends and family on this invitation. It was our first official peek at events to come for our special day and it helped us set a beautiful tone for what we hope will be a magical occasion."
"These cards arrived right on time and were better then expected. I went with the thicker card and got rounded edges which made a difference. The quality of the paper is beautiful and I love the detail on the back of the cards it really is something different!"
"I left the images and txt how it is. As soon as I saw it I fell in love. The first time I ordered I mistakenly put the wrong date but they were very helpful in correcting it and resending quickly. Even downrange I still got them in a good amount of time."

There must be something in the water at Subaru HQ. The company, which maintained a stable model lineup over the past decade, is coming out this year with not one, but two new models. The BRZ, and its twin the Scion FR-S, launched earlier to the delight of sports-car fans everywhere. And now we have the 2013 Subaru XV Crosstrek.
Unlike the BRZ, the XV Crosstrek does not take Subaru into previously uncharted territory. With its all-wheel drive, the XV Crosstrek is like a downsized Outback, and less station-wagony than the Forester. It comes off as a mini-SUV, similar to the Mini Countryman and the upcoming BMW X1.
And as a totally new model, the XV Crosstrek doesn't get weighed down with legacy tech. The optional navigation head unit in the Crosstrek is a relatively new system for Subaru, with many advanced, and unexpected, features.
When optioned with navigation, as CNET's review car was, the head unit gets a 6.1-inch touch-screen LCD in the dash. The screen is not all that big compared with competitors' systems, but the system is feature-packed. The head unit offers not only navigation, but also digital audio and hands-free phone calling, all accessible through voice command as well.
A home screen crams audio and navigation information into the confines of the LCD, which ends up being a little cluttered when route guidance is active. However, a simple touch of the screen expands the map display. This interface can be a bit confusing, as the map screen has a button labeled Menu in the lower left, and a button with a little screen grid icon in the upper right. It took me quite a bit of poking around the interface just to find the volume control for voice prompts.
An icon on the map shows its orientation, and touching it cycles through the usual 2D and perspective views. The map manages to show traffic information in an easily readable format and will dynamically route around big problems. I was impressed by the system's route guidance, which not only shows detailed graphics for upcoming turns, but includes voice prompts that say street names.
The system responded quickly as I entered addresses with the onscreen keyboard. With voice command, activated by either a button on the head unit or on the steering wheel, I was able to say a business name, such as "Home Depot," and have it show a list of nearby corresponding locations. But the system had trouble recognizing a street name I tried to enter vocally.
Advanced voice command
As with most modern voice command systems in cars, I was able to tell it to call a person by name from my phone's contact list. In a more advanced voice command feature, the system let me ask for artists or albums from my iPhone when it was plugged into the car's USB port, mounted conveniently in the console.
I like the audio-source selection on this head unit, which shows a strip of icons on the right side of the screen. Along with satellite radio, USB, and iPod integration, the system also featured HD Radio. The audio interface showed track information from HD Radio stations and album art for music on USB drives or iPods plugged into the USB port.
This head unit also incorporates a seven-band equalizer for the stereo, instead of typical treble and bass controls. I liked that I could fine-tune the audio quality with the EQ, but sometimes you just want to twist a bass knob for some extra thump. Making up for the lack of quick adjustment of bass or treble controls, the system had five equalizer presets.
Not that the six-speaker system included in the XV Crosstrek had much bass to offer. However, I did notice some quality sound coming out of this system. Although not particularly flashy, I found the system better than I would have expected, making music sound enjoyable with good frequency separation. Subaru offers a number of speaker upgrade options as accessories through its dealers, such as a subwoofer. That would be my first upgrade choice.

I have no desire to buy one knife that is amazing and then the rest of my kit goes downhill from there. I am also not implying that I am only interested in blowing money to have cool looking knives. If there is a blade out there for five bucks that is laser sharp and holds an edge I'm all for that. The way I came up with that number was the fact I had personally narrowed my search down and one of my picks was the Takedas....and the 240 Gyuto goes for less than the 400 mark...and so does eh rest of the blades I am looking for.
As far as more info, reactivity might be an issue as the wife is not as meticulous as I am and that could cause some unwanted accidental forced patina.
I prefer a stiff blade and I am probably most accurately described as a pusher. My go to knives are currently my chefs knife, paring knife, and santoku. My santoku is my beater and gets used for the ugly stuff.
Sharp out of the box is somewhat important because I feel it shows that the creator took the time to finish his product and put his best piece on the table. Not a deal breaker personally however.
Hope this provides some more insight. Thanks again for the help!

I found a site that has cool pie candles. They are really weird and I don't know when you'd ever use it other than to say "Hey, look at my weird blueberry pie candle!" If I were a candle collector I'd be all over this. If it were real, I'd be all over this. I like it.

King joins Indiana Girls Collaborative Project
June 11th, 2012 |
As the newest member of the Indiana Girls Collaborative Project Champions Board, Dottie L. King, Ph.D., president of Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College (SMWC), is joining the effort to break down gender divides in the fields of science, engineering, technology and mathematics (STEM).
The Indiana Girls Collaborative Project focuses on bringing together organizations and programs that encourage girls to pursue careers in STEM fields. The Project will develop creative solutions and strategies to facilitate connections that will expand STEM-related opportunities for girls. It is based on the model of the National Girls Collaborative Project, whereby the state organizations comprise the national organization.
Serving a two-year board term, King looks forward to mobilizing community stakeholders to strengthen and expand opportunities that inspire and motivate girls.
"As a women's college, we [Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College] have historically developed opportunities to engage girls and young women in STEM careers. I am honored to help bring together educators, students and leaders in the public and private sector to inspire girls to explore these career paths. This project serves as a vehicle for STEM advocates to participate in meaningful collaboration with tangible outcomes."
-Dottie King, SMWC President
The Champions Board is an independent statewide entity that works together with the local leadership team, the Convening Organization for Indiana and the National Collaborative Project Team. Its members include university faculty, staff and administrators, community leaders, business representatives, K-12 partners, nonprofits and government. It supports local and statewide programs including forums, conferences and programs.
Indiana State University serves as the Convening Organization for Indiana, to support a wealth of partnerships among girl-serving programs throughout the state, and to provide opportunities to leverage and share resources.
Bev Bitzegaio, Director of Outreach and Student Career Support and Project Lead, explained that since females are so greatly under-represented in STEM, there are many programs focused on attracting girls as a way to diversify and increase numbers in these fields.
"Having a collaborative model helps us to combine resources, thereby increasing our effectiveness in accomplishing common goals," said Bitzegaio. "I am excited to have SMWC join us in serving the Indiana Collaborative. President King provides a level of personal expertise with her background in mathematics education, and will be a great addition to the Champions Board."
Besides her role as president of SMWC, King's knowledge and leadership as an associate professor of mathematics and chair of the sciences and mathematics department make her a strong contributor to the board. Passionate about the importance of STEM education, she has delivered numerous presentations and published research on factors that encourage women to persist in their study of mathematics. She published "Pedagogical needs of female mathematics students: Listening to their voice" for the "Journal for the Liberal Arts and Sciences."

"I changed some of the fonts and the color of the border and of the bride and groom's names. I liked the imprint at the top....."
"This is a striking invite! Using it in the green for a Charleston,SC rehearsal dinner. The scrollwork speaks beautifully to the city's famed wrought iron work. A contemporary invite with a truly traditional twist. Have received lots of compliments!"
"My fiance and I were able to customize this invitation to go with the color theme of our rehearsal dinner. The plate design also lends itself to a rehearsal dinner theme, and all of our guests commented on how wonderful they were. The invitations were slightly smaller than we expected, but were definitely adequate enough to include all of the information for our rehearsal dinner. I would HIGHLY recommend this product."
"They are very elegant cards. they did require extra postage of 20cents, but were great for their purpose. I was very happy with Wedding Paper Divas. Everything came in time, was proofed and was an easy transaction."
"Our dinner invitations look stunning! Quality paper and ink colors set this one above anything I had seen elsewhere. The varied fonts and overall design look elegant and "inviting". We are excited to send these to our guests and they are sure to be impressed. Your customer service was excellent and the order arrived in just three days. I would definitely recommend and use Wedding Paper Divas in the future!"

According to a Nikkei report that was translated by Andriasang, Nintendo wants to bring back other gaming companies' titles onto the 3DS in order to build a better, stronger library. One in particular that was made an example is the popular and best-selling Seaman. Yoot Saito, who created the Dreamcast title, suggested around two years ago that it was possible Seaman could appear on the 3DS.
What exactly is Seaman, though, for those of you that are wondering? Although it's a pretty simple concept, it might seem a little weird. It's basically a pet-raising sim where you take care of fish-like creature with a human face. The game also took advantage of the Dreamcast's microphone attachment. There was also a sequel, Seaman 2, where you rear a 20-centimeter tall Peking man instead of a fish. Seaman 2 was not brought outside of Japan.
It's really great to see Nintendo reviving old games like these as newer, fresher forms on the 3DS.
What other older games and/or series besides Seaman would you like to see brought back onto the 3DS?

World War™ - 14 Honor Points

All Android applications categories
by: Storm8 Games • 30.3K
Published: 2011-05-05, by Manu Galvez.
Armament, strategy, alliances... World War has everything to keep you hooked if war games are your thing.
The plot of the game is as follows: "It's the year 2012. A nuclear war has broken out. 5 countries have emerged as the major superpowers in the devastating war. Which one will you be?". So, first you have to choose which country you want to belong to.
You start off as a single soldier you have to work hard to improve your rank. To reach your goal, you'll have to take part in missions, battles, recruit units, take over buildings etc. There are also a variety of monetary and honor points that you can use to move up a level. You can also join alliances with real users online: when you create your soldier at the start, you get a code that you can use to add friends and make alliances. The strong point of World War is its multiplayer platform that allows you to play against real opponents live.

ST. JOHNS COUNTY, Fla. - The St. Johns County sheriff is blasting the Florida Department of Law Enforcement in a scathing 160-page report in which the sheriff says FDLE investigators lied and manipulated evidence to try to blame a deputy for the death of his girlfriend.
Sheriff David Shoar said he will use his last two years in office defending the deputy involved. He said Michelle O'Connell committed suicide and was not killed by the deputy.
On Sept. 2, 2010, O'Connell died of a gunshot wound to her head by a bullet fired from her the service pistol of her boyfriend -- St. Johns County Deputy Jeremy Banks. It was ruled a suicide.
Now two and a half years later, there is still debate if it really was or if it was a homicide made to look like a suicide covered up by Banks.
Evidence shows the couple had problems and were on the verge of breaking up.
Three medical examiners have ruled the death a suicide, as well as a special prosecutor, who closed the case. But an investigation by FDLE Investigator Rusty Rodgers has been questioning all of that and placing the blame for O'Connell's death on Banks.
On Thursday, Shoar fired back. He had his homicide team review all the evidence in the case and is accusing the FDLE investigator of sloppy and inappropriate police work.
"We have been above board with everybody. Everything we have is out in the open," Shoar said. "I asked to review this case on possible misconduct on those two agents. It not us against the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. It is not us saying our house is completely clean on this issue."
The report highlights many problems with the investigation. But it concludes that the death of O'Connell was a tragic event. It says the St. Johns County Sheriff's Office should have been more thorough and comprehensive in its investigation.
But Shoar said FDLE followed a preordained path and its very early conclusion was homicide committed by Banks.
The sheriff says the FDLE agent and his superior acted recklessly and maliciously.
Shoar said the Rodgers had an inappropriate relationship with family members of O'Connell and became a family advocate. The sheriff says Rodgers used false and misleading information to obtain search warrants, ignored evidence and influenced experts.
Banks' attorney said he will use this report and possibly take legal action to clear Banks' name.

uniwax colette hawthorn
Added Jul 26, 2013

Ouidah, Benin
I was very excited to start the Colette Hawthorn, but then picked a fabric I wasn't in love with and received a care package with a ton of new fabric and patterns that distracted me, so I admit I dragged my feet with this project, but the sewalong deadline helped a lot in motivating me to finish. It was fun following the sewalong and I'll definitely use certain tips for my next Hawthorn (such as the wide shoulder adjustment) – with a better fabric!
I wrote more in my sewing journal here: http://cathywu.com/journal/treadling/2013/07/26/uniwax-colette-hawthorn/

Thankyou :)

Your shoulder looks pretty perfect, I wouldn't widen it more then 1 cm. The extra fabric needs to come out across the bust- If you extend the line under the arm ( that curves around the armhole ) about 2cm front and back it should do the trick.
You can join it to the waist or widen it the whole way down if you prefer.
I think your amazing living over there and doing what your doing, and I love that pattern ( I've ordered it ), it's gorgeous! nice job

Custom DNA Portrait
Truly, there is no personal portrait quite like this one. It's not a candid shot of you role playing or the coveted baby photo. The custom DNA portrait is actually a photo of your completely unique DNA. For Valentines Day, there's few things more (geeky) romantic than pointing out how your loved one truly is one-of-a-kind.

Shopping centre group Charter Hall Retail REIT has swung back into the black with a first half net profit of $15.8 million.
The group's result for the six months to December 31 was in stark contrast to the $15.7 million loss recorded in the previous corresponding period.Net property income rose to $56.3 million. from $52.6 million.
The earnings rise followed a string of acquisitions by the group, which has shopping centres across Australia. It has been selling centres in the United States, New Zealand and Poland so it can focus on the Australian market.
The REIT's fund manager Scott Dundas said construction was underway on $97 million of redevelopment projects across the group's $133 million pipeline.
Another 165 leasing transactions were being finalised to maintain the Australian portfolio occupancy rate at 98.5 per cent.
Mr Dundas said the group remained on the hunt for acquisitions and was expected to lift its full year operating earnings.
''Barring unforeseen events, forecast FY13 operating earnings are expected to be in the range of 29.5 to 30.0 cents per unit, with distributions expected to reflect a payout ratio of between 85 per cent and 95 per cent of operating earnings,'' he said.
Charter Hall's operating earnings for the 2011/12 financial year were $86.3 million, or 28.81 cents per unit.
Charter Hall maintained its interim distribution at 13.3 cents per security.

A MOSQUE leader says he was shocked by a council's refusal of plans to transform an old Totteridge pub into a religious education centre.
Dozens of residents had opposed the scheme for the former Iron Duke pub, and planning councillors at Wycombe District Council agreed the change would cause too many parking and traffic problems in the Totteridge Road area.
This decision went against the recommendation of council officers, who had negotiated on several aspects of the plan with Wycombe Islamic Mission [WIM], which made the application.
WIM want to use the building as an educational centre affiliated with the nearby Townfield House Mosque - as well as occasional use for funeral mourners.
Chairman Sajid Ali said: "We were pretty certain we were going to get planning for this building because it's just a wasted property stood there empty.... All the Muslim community was shocked.
"We want to bring it into use and help the local community there. Anybody could use it....it's not just for the Muslim community.
"We have to take this into a committee meeting and decide what we are going to do next."
Asked whether WIM are likely to keep trying for planning permission Mr Ali said: "Obviously we bought the building and what are we going to do with it? We are going to try our best."
He argued the change of use would not have brought extra cars into the area, as the centre was intended to be used by children while their parents are at the Townfield House Mosque.
However, Wednesday's council meeting heard several complaints about the existing traffic and parking problems around Totteridge Road – especially when prayers are held at the mosque on Fridays.
A representative from Red Kite Community Housing spoke out against the plan on behalf of Parsonage Close residents.
And Isobel Zajer, also speaking on behalf of residents, said: "The negative feeling is generated by the situation we experience.....serious problems with parking, congestion and unsafe driving."
Ward councillors Roger Colomb and Tony Green also urged members to reject the scheme and slammed the applicant's 'Green Travel Plan' – which the council had requested to help reduce the number of car journeys.
Cllr Colomb told the meeting: "The applicants have had well over a year to do the travel plan, but all their advisors have come up with is a list of ideas they might like to try out....which for some reason our officers refer to as detailed measures."
And Cllr Green added: "Why isn't the car sharing done now...there's an existing problem. Why hasn't that already been implemented?
"According to this it would be easy to do. I'm not being deliberately rude about this but I have to say it's not worth the paper it's written on."
Michael Gurney, of application agent MGA Architects, said: "They [WIM] have produced a Green Travel Plan. It's a fact that this type of plan works very well for parents of children in schools in a great deal of the country."
Though he acknowledged the users of the mosque "clearly haven't helped this application" he said the existing parking problems are another issue that needs to be dealt with separately.
However, a majority of councillors backed a proposal to refuse the application from Cllr Steve Lacey, who said the scheme would cause an unacceptable impact on parking and traffic.


text: I haven't thought enough about where Dallas will end up but I'm sure they'll win a lot more then 30 games. I still see Dallas as a playoff team unless Dirk goes out. Even though they had to go with plan b, they've upgraded their front court. Their backcourt may have taken a step back but Kidd was washed up. Terry was a loss though. I'd see them still pulling in 45-50 wins.

Military of New Zealand
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
Military Of New Zealand
|Additional Information
"The New Zealand army is here? SHIT! WE'RE SCREWED!! Oh wait they're here to help us....?"
The New Zealand Defence Force comprises three services:
- The New Zealand Army of Maoris
- The Royal New Zealand Navy
- And the Royal New Zealand Air Transport Force for VIPs
The Commander-in-Chief of the NZDF is New Zealand's Governor-General, Fredd Dagg, who exercises his power on the advice of facts & quizzes found on the underside of beer bottle caps.
The commander and head of the NZDF is the Chief of Defence Force, Lieutenant General & VC Winner, Jake The Muss, who also acts as the primary military advisor to the Minister of Defence, Jango Fett.
New Zilland 's armed forces have three defence policy objectives:
- To defend New Zealand against verry verry low-level threats
- To contribute to regional security, that is, restoring order to small pacific nations whose populations have trouble understanding democracy
- Something about logistic support
New Zealand believes that having cool friends will keep it safe, and that, due to its geographical isolation, it does not need an air-combat force. Instead it focuses primarily on land and sea and particle physics.
edit HistoryNew Zealand Forces have served with the British, The Steve Irwin Australian Expeditionary Force (nicknamed the Stingrays), and a shitload of other nations, with the most notable exception of the Americans.
New Zealand has played a part in:
- World War I
- World War II
- World War XVII
- The Second Antarctic War
- The War of the Ring
- And presumably a few others that were forgotten in the drunken revelry that followed each
A few smaller skirmishes, tentatively referred to as wars, but almost too discrete to warrant a mention, are listed below:
edit McGillicuddy Highland Army Rout
In 1979 Clan McGillicuddy Attempted a military takeover of Knew Zulland, declaring a new monarch in the form of one Bonnie Prince Geoffie the Reluctant. The battle strategy was to challenge the royal armed forces to a winner-takes-all pillow fight. The defence forces countered this by bravely declining, thus routing the attacking force.[1]
edit Nuclear War for the nuclear-free New Zealand
The NWFTNFNZ, in the 1980s, involved heavy casualties. Three Kiwis, 300,669 Australians and a couple sheep died in the war that lasted a little over 46 minutes. An American nuclear battleship stationed itself off the coast of New Zealand. When the NZ Government denied it entry into port, the war began as the battleship launched a nuclear warhead, but the proudly American-made Windows military application mistook the Sydney harbour bridge for Auckland's harbour bridge. The warhead struck Sydney, resulting in the Australian death toll. The entire New Zealand death toll owes to the celebrations that followed, and excessive consumption of alcohol.
edit The Three Services
edit The Royal New Zealand Transport Force
"Um..Where the fuck did my skyhawk go?"
The RNZTF, Previously known as the RNZAF (Royal New Zealand Air Force) is the main transport and logistics service in the NZDF.
The Royal New Zealand Transport force has a proud history of moving stuff. For air supremacy roles they usually rely on Australia to cover for them while they enjoy a 6 pack back at the base, or employ powerful loudhailers to shout slogans.
During the RNZAF days New Zilland had some of the best pilots in the world, but in 2001 the Labour government stationed in Helengrad, or 'Wellington', disbanded the combat squadrons and put the A-4 aircraft up for sale.
In 2007, all personnel went on strike as a result of the government not implementing plans for a tractor plane. The only pilot got his megaphone stolen by an angry green party activist to protest for the legalization of marijuana. The strike was quickly resolved, as the pilot got hungry and took his Toyota to the McDonalds drive-thru.
F16s were offered to New Zealand at low-low-low export wholesale prices for one weekend only. (Sale ends midnight Sunday! Everything must go!). However, instead of replacing the air combat fleet with F16s, the government sealed the deal because they are just so stupid and placed their skyhawaks in storage. Stupid Labour Goverment.
Currently, The RNZTF Has:
- Couple Hundred Personel
- One Pilot
- He still reckons the air combat force will return.
- 40 x THV - RNZTF Spec, 3L Toyota Hiace Vans
- Armed with Sidewinders and M60 Machine guns on the side doors.
- A Charter plane
- Armed with GPS on special use lay-by from Dick Smith Electronics
- Also room for a steyr to point out the window
- A Kite
- Done in khaki colours
- Has a picture of Helen Clark sewed onto it to frighten away enemy forces
edit The New Zealand Tractor Tank Assault force
"The NZ Army is awesome, as they can make tanks from tractors, aka tractor tanks."
The New Zealand Army has had the best funding in a long while--not a statistically significant percentage of GDP, but enough for an alarmed Green Party to protest outside parliament with three or four unemployed supporters. Also, the New Zealand Army stopped issuing guns to its soldiers as a example of cost cutting, instead issuing NZ soldiers sheep to throw at the enemy.
The NZ army currently has:
- 20,000 assorted revellers
- 80 Kiwi SAS soldiers
- 50 bb guns
- 2 Paintball guns
- A couple reservists, mainly fans of Dads Army.
- One qualified dickhead who goes by the undercover name of Paddy O'Clebitch.
- 10,000 x Personnel, in-office administration, and other civilian trades within the army.
- 20 x Hitachi Medium Excavator (NZLAV)
- Due to public demand for tanks, the Army's top engineers designed and built 20 NZLAVs. Essentially these are Hitachi Diggers armed with bullet proof plating and a 105mm Main gun.
- 500 x 5L V8 Landrovers
- All 500 of these vehicles are assigned to bring tools and essentials to run and maintain the Hitachi Medium Excavators during combat. Chosen for their off-road capability.
- Infinite x Tractor Tanks
All of these were called in after in a small region of the Southern Island, the local sheep claimed ownership of the region as they had a majority of 10 to 1 and were the most intelligent citizens of the land. The sheep army began marching toward Auckland until the force of the NZ army clashed with the menacing sheep. Gunfire ensued when the head sheep (known by the pseudonym 'Puffincakes') took a large bite out of one of the soldiers. The sheep then disappeared without a trace, but lamb supply in the local Woolworths supermarket increased dramatically.
It is still said that the NZ government are merely puppets of the sheep.
"Speakin' Of Naval Bases Mate? You Should See Ours!"
"What? You Mean You Got Your Own Naval Base With Your Own Boats?"
The Royal New Zealand Navy (RNZN) is made up of 40 Third Generation Kiwi Patrol Craft. The navy also operate some other boats that have no use.
The NZ Navy currently has:
- Multi role canoe - HMNZS Wankerbury
- Frigate (bird) - HMNZS Te Kaka
- 40 Sailors
- 1 Operational Divers unit stationed at R'totos bar
- One reservist
- 40 x Toyota Hiluxes
- These are used to transport the Kiwi Patrol Craft
- 40 x Third Generation Kiwi Patrol Craft
- Each one is Armed with a 50 Caliber Machine Gun, 900 rounds, ration packs including the gunners favorite drop, and a 50cc outboard. There are also a number that are equipped with armour plating....otherwise known as 'dinghys'
- 1x Poorly-Animated Cut-Out Landing Whale, W/Rear-Mounted Infuriating Accent, Bru.
- Non-re-usable in combat, always becomes 'beached az' after landing attempts.
All attempts to make Tractor boats have failed.
edit Future Of The NZ Military
. Hey, look! A dot!
The current government is looking at outsourcing all military operations to a call centre in India. The Army is evaluating its options for the replacement of the current Personnel Armour system after complaints from troops about the current flannelette shirts with wooden plates and skateboard helmets. The Military of NZ is at the moment gambling budget money in an attempt to gain $100 trillion dollars, so they can buy an army of robots, making Nu Zeiland's army the most advance in the world, Although this is held back by the amount of sheep shaped blow up sex dolls imported by the army, making up roughly 50% of the entire armies expenditure.
edit Chief of Defence Force
The current chief of defence is Lieutenant General, Jake "The Muss" Heke. Now in his 40 somethings, Heke was an Ex-NZSAS serviceman now turned Abusive Alcoholic. He received a Victoria Cross for his blindingly fast Close Quarter Combat skills during a fight in a Bar in which he achieved a whopping 345 1/4 punches per minute.
edit Previous Chiefs
- Rear-Admiral John Maiava (1969-1989)
- The Samoan Born Kangaroo (Johnny Maiava) attained the rank of Rear-Admiral due to his excellent set of skills and hands on experience.
- Transport Marshal That Guy (1999-2001)
- The guy we call that guy, humble & honorable, often seen in his mil-spec moon TV Hyundai van was arguably the best commander of the RNZAF New Zealand has ever had. Followed closely by his long time friends, Drew walker and Michael hillier.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 15/2/2013 (1647 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
A secret garden in the heart of the gritty North End bears apple trees, pear trees among ponds and waterfalls.
Indoor greenhouses burst with seedlings for vegetable and flower gardens.
A 200-year-old cactus shares space with blood-red trumpets that flare off stunning amaryllis.
A gnarled tea tree vents its camphor-like tang, rosemary, its savory punch and a geranium smells sweet, like lemon drops.
Welcome to R.B. Russell, the only school in Winnipeg with a working greenhouse. This greening of the city is on Dufferin Avenue at the foot of the Slaw Rebchuk Bridge, across from the Lord Selkirk projects and the Indian and Metis Friendship Centre.
Perhaps the best crop here is the people: students from broken homes who are growing hopes for brighter futures straight out of the earth.
Every bit of it is tended by kids with tattoos, kids who used to be bullies, kids kicked out of other schools.
Not wannabe gangbangers anymore, in anyone's wildest nightmares.
These kids love going to school on weekends. Seriously. Ditto with summer weeding, tending and fall harvesting.
They've done landscaping at David Livingstone School and other locations, and they put together planting kits for other schools.
Oh, and did I mention they make salsa from scratch?
If that knocks the stuffing out of stereotypes in the 'hood, you're right.
And really, it's not far off from the restorative message of the original Secret Garden, the children's classic about the mean, sad orphan who blossomed into a caring little girl behind the walls of a hidden English garden.
The 38 students from grades 9 to 12 who are enrolled in the horticulture program are the envy of other students: for the peace, the light and the gentle green growth in this place.
They work to the sound of a tropical bird song, from a parakeet named Bobbee. She meows like a cat and giggles like a little girl.
Brittany Murdock, 20, who will graduate this year, sees her future as a mason and outdoor landscaper because of the program. She designed and built the school's water feature in the long lobby overlooking the garden courtyard.
This winter, Murdock's last big project involves engineering an aquaponics system for plant food production with hoses, aquariums and eavestroughs. It will pump pablum out of perch poop for seedlings.
There's something special about walking into the greenhouse, she said.
"You can breathe. It's awesome, just the fact that it's summer inside. You get the light."
Murdock is not the only one who has undergone a transformation once inside the sun-kissed walls.
"Taking care of all these plants, it's teaching me how to grow my own garden... and it's given me a lot of confidence to let my skills come through," Macey MacDonald, 18, said.
Taylor Coleman, 17, is a whippet-thin teen guy: "When you walk into the greenhouse, it feels very calming. It lets you release and be free and embrace the plants," he said.
And Joseph King, 19 dressed in cargo shorts at -30 below and a headband? "My experience is, every time I'm in there it helps my moods, it helps me cope with my stress."
Drew Richard, 19, came to R.B. Russell a step ahead of dropping out, belligerent and scary:
"I got expelled from junior high in Grade 6. I used to be the biggest bully. I didn't know how to handle my anger. So I used to fight."
These days, she's a little mother to her sister, Eileen. At 4, Eileen is shy and shows her budding fashionista flare in a little white floral dress trimmed in candy floss piping.
Richard's now known as "the Lettuce Queen of the North End."
An avid gardener, Richard tends the gardens outside during the summer, filling garbage bags with fresh lettuce for the 'hood. She's enrolling in social work after graduation.
R.B. Russell principal Bev Wahl said she has seen kids find peace from the plants and go on to succeed in their school work, proving the program's value.
"We're definitely going to keep it going," Wahl said.
Teacher Louise Shachtay noted R.B. Russell is the only school in Winnipeg with such an extensive greenhouse program, and over the years the high school has set up links with Red River College, where some students go on to secondary-school programs.
"Therapeutic" comes to mind.
"You get different types of kids coming in... I have 20 seniors and 18 juniors. I want kids to connect with the earth, because I know a lot of kids are disconnected. This is a place of hope in the middle of the city. We've got crime over here," Shachtay said, gesturing to an inner-city housing complex. "We've got shootings over there," her hand gesture shifted in the direction of Dufferin Avenue.
"But here we hardly get any windows broken."
That could be related the sense of healing and solace.
"These kids are learning about nurture. They haven't had that nurturing in their own lives. Some of these kids aren't with their parents. They live with relatives or in group homes. And I tell the kids, 'I don't care where you're from or what you've done. Here we start with a clean slate.' "
Green thumbs
This month's Green Page takes a look at an organic horticultural and landscaping program at R.B. Russell Vocational High School, established 13 years ago under the guidance of teacher and green thumb Louise Shachtay. It's unique in Winnipeg.
Shachtay and others say the greenhouse is an investment in eco-living that's saved the sanity of more than one kid.
Horticulture is not for birdbrains. It's a science, with an encompassing set of disciplines: taxonomy, math, problem-solving skills, soil chemistry and hydroponics. There's also a retail side to the R.B. Russell horticulture program: floral centrepieces, salesmanship and customer relations.

If you're looking for some excellent After Effects tutorials, whether you are a beginner or an advanced user, take a look at Video Copilot. A few years ago I came across this quick tutorial on how to create 3D titles that appear to live inside your frame, along with your footage. This method will give a unique look to your titles and definitely sets them apart from most titles that lay flat across the frame.

You knew there'd be days like this. The kids are bored. There's nothing to do. Mini-spats are simmering.
Slice-and-bake cookies — rolls of dough tucked in the refrigerator or freezer waiting to be sliced, baked and decorated — were created for just such emergencies
"It's a great activity to do with children," writes Elinor Klivans, a grandma, former pastry chef and cookbook author, in "Slice & Bake Cookies: Fast Recipes From Your Refrigerator or Freezer" (Chronicle Books, $18.95).
With this caveat from Grandma Elinor: "I spread newspaper on my kitchen floor to catch any spills, put out bowls of glazes and edible decorations."
(Much of the latter is usually eaten before being applied to cookies.) "Creativity reigns, and when we're finished, I just roll up the newspaper, wipe the counter and cleaning is done."
Many recipes have built-in kid appeal and are easy enough for any child adept at Play-Doh to help with measuring, mixing or shaping the rolls. Little ones may just like to help with decorating. The butter cookies are a good one to start with — and have in the freezer, so double the recipe if you like.
Klivans offers variations: Mix 1 teaspoon grated orange or lemon zest into the dough. Or sprinkle cookies with colored sugars before baking. Or decorate baked cookies with confectioners' sugar icing.

butter cookies
Prep: 10 minutes
Chill: 3 hours
Bake: 15 to 20 minutes per batch
1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
¼ teaspoon salt
2/3 cup sugar
2 egg yolks
1 teaspoon vanilla
¼ teaspoon almond extract
2 cups flour
Chocolate chips or pecan halves, optional
1. With an electric mixer on medium speed, beat butter and salt in a bowl just until blended. Beat in sugar until blended smooth. Scrape down sides of bowl. Mix in yolks and extracts until blended. Reduce speed to low. Add flour, mixing just until incorporated.
2. Divide dough in half. Put each on a large piece of plastic wrap. Form into logs 7 inches long and 1½ inches in diameter. Roll back and forth to smooth. Wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 3 hours, or overnight, until firm. Or overwrap with aluminum foil and freeze up to two months. Note: Frozen dough needs defrosting in the refrigerator 3 hours before baking.
3. To bake, set rack in middle of oven. Heat to 350 degrees. Cut cold logs into slices, about 1/3-inch thick. Place cookies 1½ inches apart on parchment-lined baking sheets. Press a chocolate chip (flat side up) or pecan half into each slice. Bake one sheet at a time until cookies are lightly browned, 15-20 minutes. Cool cookies on baking sheet 10 minutes; transfer to wire rack. Cool completely.

Youth Works at MOPA
Each year MOPA hosts an exhibition of photographs from our educational outreach programs. The works in these exhibitions remind us of how refreshing the world is when seen through the eyes of an emerging photographer—eyes not yet steeped in the rules and formulas often associated with the medium. MOPA proudly presents these images with the same dignity and presentation standards we afford all of our exhibitions, and often use these exhibitions as an opportunity to try out new ideas. Later, these ideas often find their way into larger projects.
This year we had an opportunity to work with students from A.R.T.S. (A Reason to Survive) a local non-profit that introduces teens and emerging adults to the healing and transformative power of art. This collaboration afforded us a chance to train students on the finer points of museum quality matting and framing, working with them to frame our upcoming education exhibition: See/Saw. In the process we have engaged with additional young artists and provided them with job skills in the arts. It has been a rewarding experience for all involved, and may open future collaborative opportunities yet unseen. These dynamic practices and visionary relationships are what keep MOPA vital and make it a unique resource for San Diego.

using hydrometer
Posted 03 January 2013 - 10:34 AM
Posted 03 January 2013 - 11:59 AM
I use my well water as thats my supply source of all water-but tap water is fine.
As far as the hydrometer wet it 1st always before use in clean water and then use when wet-or you can always use it dry but it must be dry every time-I use mine wet as it easier than drying ever dip.
Many of my glazes are tuned in around 1600-1550-1520. That should be a starting point.
The cup is filled to a given line or full and the time it takes to empty is recorded-(time this with a accurate timer)
I have only used the cup with slip so someone else can elaborate.
Posted 03 January 2013 - 03:37 PM
Posted 03 January 2013 - 04:11 PM
If you have a hydrometer, I would start there and test your glazes from 1.3 sp to 1.6 sp.
Your dipping times will vary depending on absorbency of the bisque ware (porosity and thickness)

I found this good article as far as viscosity http://www.baileypot...cosityguide.htm however they say 40 to 60 seconds to empty a viscosity cup is good while several other articles I read say 18 to 20 seconds. That's quite a difference ! Waaa!
May depend on the size of the hole in the cup . . . bet there is no standard.

Get a plastic 100ml graduated cylinder (usually under $5). Weigh it on your gram scale. Make an appropriate tare weight or just write the mass of the cylinder on the base with sharpie.
Stir glaze well and fill the cylinder with 100 ml of glaze. Weigh the whole kit and kaboodle. Either use the tare weight or subtract the weight of the cylinder.
The remaining weight in grams is the SG once you move the decimal 2 places left (ie 145gr =1.45SG)
My 2 cents.
Posted 04 January 2013 - 04:05 PM
The hydrometer and the paint pot are both good simple ways of measuring the viscosity of your glaze. However, the thinness or thickness of the glaze isn't dependent upon strictly the amount of water that it has in it. It is also important to know if your glaze is acidic or base, and it's good to know how to adjust the situation with that glaze. One of the clearest explanations of this situation is a You Tube video by John Britt. Here is the address for this video. I'm sorry that I haven't figure out yet how to actually post a link within the text. So here it is, just copy and paste this to your browser and you should be able to get there.
I hope this helps.

You can order a 250ml glass cylinder from Amazon for a few bucks. With that you only have to take out a little glaze and you can use your hydrometer. You only need little over 200ml to do it. If the glaze is particularly viscous just tap the side until the hydrometer quits sinking. Your results should be fairly reproducible.

Dozens of willing volunteers lent a hand in Devizes on Saturday to pack showboxes full of goodies for underprivileged children in eastern Europe.
Around 50 people answered the call from Operation Christmas Child and went to St Andrew's Church Hall in Devizes to help pack the boxes with a wide range of toys and gifts for boys and girls who would otherwise get no presents this Christmas.
The hall was a hive of industry as helpers set up a production line to pack 638 boxes ready for dispatch from the charity's Melksham hub.
Organiser Ursula McKinnon said: "It would have been a lot more but we ran out of things to pack. It was a fantastic day and there was a wonderful atmosphere.
"We must have had over 50 helpers. I tried to count them but they were moving around too much. I would like to thank everyone who helped and who donated items and made cash contributions towards transport costs."
In addition to the boxes packed on Saturday, another 20 or so were dropped in by individuals. A further 32 were picked up from the Gazette offices in the Market Place and Mrs McKinnon has had 18 delivered to her home.
Full details of how to pack a shoebox and what to put in it are available in leaflets from the Gazette & Herald offices in Devizes Market Place. Filled shoeboxes can be left at the Gazette's offices in Devizes and Chippenham and at Henry George estate agents in Marlborough.
