Travellers will not be able to take hand luggage with them onto planes.
Belfast International Airport is advising passengers to check with their airline before leaving home.
Flights at George Best Belfast City Airport are getting back to normal. City of Derry says check-in on flights will close one hour before departure.
Passengers at Dublin Airport are being allowed to take hand luggage on board, but those travelling from UK airports into Dublin have been warned to expect extra delays.
MI5 has raised the UK threat level to critical - the highest possible.
According to MI5's website, critical threat level means "an attack is expected imminently and indicates an extremely high level of threat to the UK".
Belfast International Airport security director Robin Long said delays would be inevitable.
"It will help all of us if passengers are prepared," he said.
"Unusually, we are searching absolutely everybody, so that is having a massive impact."
John Devine, manager of City of Derry Airport, appealed for anyone flying from the airport to turn up as well prepared as possible.
"We are experiencing delays to out-bound and, more importantly, inbound flights - we haven't received any in-bound flights from any UK airports.
"They are approaching the check-in desks well prepared and are repacking all of their hand luggage into their hold luggage, and I have to say it is running fairly smoothly at this moment."
Ryan Byrne was due to fly from Londonderry to Liverpool for a family wedding, but his flight was cancelled.
"We were due to fly out at 2.15pm to Liverpool to go to my cousin's wedding tomorrow, the flight has been cancelled.
"Everything is up in smoke and my cousin is distraught. We are going to have to try and sort something else out."
The Department for Transport said passengers will not be allowed to take any hand luggage on to any flights in the UK.
Only the barest essentials - including passports and wallets - will be allowed to be carried on board in transparent plastic bags, the department said.
Meanwhile, Heathrow Airport has been closed to all incoming flights that are not already in the air, while several outbound services have been cancelled.

RICHMOND / Teenager shot dead while riding motorcycle / Police say slaying tied to other crimes
Published 4:00 am, Thursday, September 22, 2005
An 18-year-old man was shot and killed in Richmond on Wednesday as he rode a small motorcycle on a neighborhood street, and police said the slaying is related to a series of violent crimes, including this week's killing of a man in a car stereo store near police headquarters.
Aubrey Garrard Hagler IV was pronounced dead at the scene after the 11:22 a.m. shooting in the 5100 block of Gately Avenue in the southern part of the city, said Richmond police Lt. Mark Gagan.
Police linked the shooting to a Monday killing after looking at the victims and the weapons used, and investigators said the cases were gang related.
"The intelligence unit and homicide detectives have identified a south-side gang as having been responsible for assaulting and killing members of other gangs," Gagan said. The spate of shootings -- five so far this month -- prompted police and the mayor to again call for aid from outside agencies.
Mayor Irma Anderson released a statement Wednesday night saying she is distressed by the "epidemic of violence plaguing our community." She promised to try to increase the number of officers on the street and renew a mutual-aid agreement with the California Highway Patrol that ended Sept. 1.
"We are working to have the aid extended," said Michelle Milam, the mayor's spokeswoman. "The question is how much support on any given night the CHP will be able to provide."
In addition to help from the CHP, the mayor will seek aid from parole officers, the Drug Enforcement Administration and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
The Richmond City Council discussed declaring a state of emergency in June -- the city's bloodiest month ever with 10 homicides -- but instead allocated $2 million to fight gun violence after hundreds of residents decried the killings.
From July 1 to Sept. 1, there were at least 10 CHP officers and two sergeants working in Richmond to help make vehicle stops. The Contra Costa County Sheriff's Office also had six deputies and a police dog in the city.
The effort seemed to be working. There were no homicides in July, though the killings started again in August with five homicides reported.
Wednesday's killing was the city's fifth homicide in September and the 29th this year. At this time last year, there had been 22 homicides.
Police have not only linked the city's last two homicides but several other attempted murders. A 20-year-old Richmond parolee has been identified as either the triggerman or involved in several of those allegedly gang-related shootings.
Vincent Demarlo Jones is considered armed and extremely dangerous and has been listed as the city's "No. 1 most wanted" suspect in connection with the recent surge in violence, police said.
Jones is not only wanted for questioning, but for a warrant alleging two counts of attempted murder, carjacking and violation of parole.
"We have gang activity at work, but I think the presence of other agencies could help deter it," Gagan said. "There is a dialogue between Richmond police and the CHP to see if it is feasible to get CHP officers working in city of Richmond again."
On Monday, one man was killed and two were injured when a man got out of a silver car outside L and A Audio Stereo and Alarm at 231 24th St. and fired at least a dozen shots with an assault weapon through the firm's open roll-up door.
Demarlo Simmons, 28, of Richmond, died in the shooting shortly before 3:30 p.m. No arrests have been made in that killing.

06/10/2008 (7:45 am)
The New York Health Department released a study yesterday that found that 1 out of 4 New Yorkers has genital herpes. Of course, the rate for the rest of the nation is not much better; 1 out of 5 Americans has the disease. The study showed differing proportions by gender (women have it more than men), race (blacks more than whites), and sexual orientation (guess.)
One of the most striking characteristics of the Sexual Revolution has been the stubborn refusal of its victims to admit that they're victims. For some reason, people are willing to suffer all sorts of diseases, relationship mayhem, poverty, and depression associated with the license to screw whomever, whenever, for whatever reason, rather than associate the pain with the behavior and change the behavior. This is insane. The nation relaxed its sexual mores in the 1960s, and since then we've generated an epidemic of venereal diseases, most of them unheard of before we started swapping partners so frequently. Worse than that, we've practically spawned an entirely new class of poor people, single women with children. The alarming rise in teenage depression and suicide is also related to the rise in sexual behavior among kids, and the majority of suicidal behavior among gays is related to broken relationships as well.
But, hey, sex is required for survival, and only disgusting religious prudes who can't get any, raise objections to a libertine society. Right?
The article reporting the special New York epidemic introduced it along with America's favorite Urban Myth:
Now might be the time for New Yorkers to take advantage of the free condom campaign the city promotes. A new study by the city's Health Department found more than a quarter of adult residents are infected with the herpes virus.
The Urban Myth is that condom use can help prevent the spread of genital herpes. Birth control is not disease control. It's a fact that the rise in the incidence of genital herpes — now possibly the most common venereal disease in America, or at best a close second behind HPV, human papilloma virus — has occurred during a period when condom use has been at its greatest. A study in the Journal of the American Medical Association in 2001 reported that condom use protects men somewhat, but does not protect women at all against the spread of herpes simplex virus II (I suppose this explains why more women than men are suffering from genital herpes).(1) According to an NIH survey of research the same year, there is not enough evidence to confirm that condoms prevent the spread of any STDs other than HIV.(2) Our culture's emphasis on condoms as a means of keeping sex safe is an exercise in wishful thinking, not a sober strategy. It was accepted so readily because so many people are so eager to dismiss any restriction on their sexual appetites that they'll grasp at whatever lame excuse comes down the pike. This is insane behavior.
Condoms help where body fluids are the transmission mechanism; herpes is spread by skin contact, not by fluids. Plus, the virus is smaller than many of the holes in the latex, so it can pass through on occasion. Of course, the kicker is that condoms only work when people use them, and sexual urges are perhaps the strongest antidote to self-discipline known to humankind. Condom use has tripled among sexually active teenagers — lots of publicity helps — but folks, if you increase the use of condoms by a factor of 3 while you're increasing the incidence of sexual contact by a factor of 10, the spread of diseases accelerates. Again, this behavior is insane.
The solution is not, and never will be, more condoms. The solution has to be fewer sexual partners; the spread of disease is geometrically proportional to the number of sexual partners we have on average. Reduce the average number of sexual partners to one per person, and venereal disease will be completely eradicated in a single generation. 100% effectiveness may be too much to ask for here, but there was no epidemic of venereal diseases before 1960, so we know — we don't think, we don't hope, we know with 100% certainty — that cultural disapproval of sexual permissiveness prevents the sort of epidemic that our current level of permissiveness has produced.
Defending sexual license is simply, utterly insane. Did I say that before?

Allow me to add a personal note here, for those of you who wonder whether I live what I preach. I am a recovering sex addict. My behavior during the time I was unmarried was far from exemplary. My behavior during my first marriage wasn't so good, either, although I never had physical, sexual contact outside the marriage (as though flirting and internet contact weren't bad enough). My position on sexual mores is the result of a lot of very personal, very painful experience. I was fooled, when I was young, into thinking success in sexual conquests would solve my other emotional angst. I was wrong. I see scores of teenagers at the high schools where I teach who are being fooled in the same manner. I spent a large percentage of my life destroying myself and my family with sex. Today, I'm watching my country destroy itself with sex. If drawing attention to it makes me a hypocrite, then I'll be one, but there's no way I'm going to stop saying what I'm saying. America's sexual permissiveness is self-destructive, insane, and immoral.

Since I'm still waiting for marriage, my opinion is probably automatically discredited.
However, I would note that the HIV virus is -also- a virus, just like HPV. HPV gets through the pores. So. . .
Of course, HIV can have an up to 15 year incubation period, so drawing connections to condom use would not be feasible with the highly promiscuous behavior of the arsenokoits.

We are at a crossroads in South Africa – and it is frightening us.
Our beloved Tata (father), Nelson Mandela, is ill. He has been in hospital for a week now and we don't really know how he is. Of course, it really is none of our business. He has retired from public life – he is no longer a political force, he is a private man living with his beloved wife and grandchildren, in a pretty home amongst the trees.

The Blue Drop drinking water report proved the failure of the ANC's "jobs for pals" policy in Mpumalanga, the DA said on Tuesday.
"Of the 18 local municipalities in our province, 10 languish on the bottom half of the performance scale, with four among (the) 10 lowest scoring municipalities," provincial chief whip James Masango said.
The report, which covers the period January to December last year, showed the number of municipalities awarded Blue Drop status had risen significantly, from 66 in the 2011 report, to 98.
The latest Blue Drop report, a national assessment of drinking water quality, involved an audit of 153 local, district and metropolitan municipalities. This time it included nearly all 931 plants in the country's water system.
"When one considers the criteria, it becomes apparent that most municipalities do not have the necessary skills and competencies to manage water delivery to their residents," said Masango.
The DA said it was not surprised to find that the Nkomazi, Albert Luthuli, Thaba Chweu and Bushbuckridge municipalities were ranked the lowest in the country. – Sapa

|PetSafe Rechargeable PIG00-14673 Manual
|The newest in-ground fence system from PetSafe, the In-Ground Rechargeable Fence utilizes the versatile and compact rechargeable in-ground collar. The highlight of this system is the collar, which is compact and lightweight and best of all - rechargeable! The system is compatible with the other PetSafe In-Ground Fence Series collars as well as the PetSafe Indoor Pet Barrier. Slightly more budget-friendly option than the YardMax, this system has a similar roster of features but can power a larger area of up to 25 acres and is compatible with other PetSafe In-Ground Fence Series collars (like the dedicated small dog collar) so you can mix and match to get a perfect fit.
|Kit Includes
|Collar Features
Rechargeable: The highlight of this system is the versatile and rechargeable collar. The collar features quick charge technology, which allows you to obtain a full charge in just 2 hours. A fully charged collar will last about 2 months under normal use before needing to be charged again.
Compact, Lightweight Collar: The Rechargeable In-Ground Dog Fence collar is small and lightweight, making it perfect for dogs anywhere from 10-150 lbs. The small receiver box is fitted to a nylon strap collar with a plastic quick-release clasp.
4 Progressive Correction Levels: The rechargeable in-ground collar offers four progressive correction level settings ranging from medium-low to high. Although the collar is small enough to be comfortable for dogs as little as 10 lbs., the correction levels are not as low as the elite little dog system collar and may still be too strong for more timid dogs. The progressive nature of the corrections means that they automatically ramp, increasing in strength as your dog continues into the correction zone.
Individual Correction: The correction level settings on the PetSafe In-Ground Rechargeable are set at the collar level. This means that no matter how many collars are using the fence simultaneously, each collar can have it's own correction level setting. Getting the correction level setting right for each dog is integral in success in training your dogs on the electric dog fence.
Includes Short & Long Contacts: The fence kit comes with a set of each short and long contact points. Short contact points are generally used for smaller dogs and dogs with short coats. The longer contact points are convenient for dogs with long coats or thick fur.
Pet Barrier Compatible: The PetSafe Rechargeable In-Ground Collar is compatible with the PetSafe Indoor Pet Barrier transmitter. These handy units allow you to set up a wireless barrier inside your home (in place of a baby gate, for example) and work with the fence collar and on the same principle.
|Transmitter Features
25-Acre Capacity: This system is a good alternative to the PetSafe YardMax for those who have more than 10 acres to fence. The Rechargeable In-Ground Fence is capable of powering up to 25 acres, more than double that of the YardMax and many other systems.
Run-Through Prevention: Progressive correction that automatically gets stronger as your dog approaches the boundary line helps to get the message across! Preventing run-throughs is important to the success of the electric dog fence system. So PetSafe has added this run-through prevention in an effort to ensure your dog never has the chance to break out.
Lacks Battery Backup: Not a huge issue for most people but backup battery is convenient for those who experience power outages from time to time, especially if you leave your dogs outside when you aren't at home. Without backup battery, the fence will go out when the power goes out, leaving your dogs unprotected.
|Do you like what you see, but want a wire that will last a whole lot longer before it begins to degrade and break down? Do you want a surge protector that does double duty (protects your fence system AND protects your home's internal electrical system from any lightning strikes that hit your boundary wire)? How about a 3 year warranty vs. a 1 year manufacturer warranty? Would you like your package to include a 1 year containment guarantee, so that you can be sure you invest in a product that will be sufficient to meet your dog's temperament and personality? If these upgrades and more strike your fancy, then perhaps you would rather invest in the PRO-Grade version of this fence system.

This dog fence system is great. Review by Jennifer Santos
Quality Value Price
I am very please to write this dog fence is high quality and delivers value. This dog fence allows me to have peace of mind about the safety of my dogs. I have had no problems keeping my dogs within my yard. The dog fence allows my dogs to have ample amounts of exercise. Installation and training was basic and very easy to do. I like that a lot. This is a excellent dog fence system.

Love the Collar Review by Nick Knogloi
Quality Value Price
I like the idea of a rechargeable system. No need to purchase tons of batteries. Works great with my dog and could not ask for better. My dog understood it by the end of the first training session. I have had this system for just over a week and a half and I have to say it is a better product than I thought! Thanks so much! (Posted on 10/28/2014)
Great Product!! Review by DogLover
Quality Value Price
After reading through the reviews I was happy to find a system with a rechargeable battery at such a great price. With the money I saved, and a little advice from Mike in tech support, I upgraded to the better wire since some of it will be laying on top of the ground and exposed to the weather.
Looking forward to getting the system and getting Maximilian trained so I can have peace of mind while he is playing in the yard. (Posted on 12/15/2013)

Interesting, I had always heard it was backlit... I don't own a 700, so I'm just going by what I've heard. Seems like Sony should be on top of this market... They were first on several occasions, but the timing and implementation wasn't quite right. My first Sony was a refurbed 600 and I loved it although the touchscreen layer made the eink a bit less sharp and I had one of the ones that faded in direct sunlight (didn't actually notice that until I'd had it a year or two). I skipped the x50 generation and picked up a T1 and love it, but Sony doesn't seem to know how to market them and doesn't offer good incentives to buy ebooks from their store. If they offer a nice frontlit reader that builds on the T1/T2, I might well pick it up. If Kindle offered EPUB support though, I'd probably pick up a Paperwhite as it has most of the features that attracted me to the Sony Reader other than EPUB.

Great family cruise: Adventure of the Seas Cruise Review by ruppy12
Overall Member Rating
Great family cruise
Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean
Embarkation: Southampton
Sailing from Southampton is very easy and stress free (from our experiences the exact opposite to flying). The boarding process is quick and efficient and we were on the ship relaxing with a drink in one of the bars within an hour of arriving at the port.
We were amazed at the size of the ship and the facilities (all excellent) it had on board. There were various shops, swimming pools, hot tubs, solarium, gym,secluded children's area complete with it's own pool/s, screening room, library, internet cafe (WiFi was expensive so not many people used it which was a shame),theatre, ice skating ring, crazy golf, basketball court and arcade.
We were also surprised and relieved to find that the ship was very spacious meaning that you can find plenty of quiet and peaceful areas if you wanted to.
There is an extensive More choice of restaurants and bars (prices quite reasonable)to choose from and these cater of all tastes. The quality and variety of the food in particular was superb and we would find it very hard to pick fault with any of it. The Windjammer was our favourite place to eat as it was very informal which suited us. There is also the option to eat evening meals at one of the main restaurants which was a lot more formal which many people liked with the food again being of a very high quality. In all instances the level of service is excellent.
We had an inside state room which prior to sailing has caused us some concerned. Our fears soon disappeared, it was small but had everything you needed. The bed/s were very comfy and the air conditioning worked properly meaning that we all slept soundly. The shower was also more than adequate (I am 6' 4" and 20 stone so if I can use it without a problem anybody can). Deck 10 where we were was also very quiet and peaceful (our stateroom attendant Fernando deserves a special mention as he kept it very clean and tidy. He was also very pleasant and helpful).
The entertainment was generally very good and there was lots to see and do for all. In the daytime there was a full activities programme to suit all ages. At night there was a show/s in the main theatre as well as entertainment in the various lounges and bars on the ship.
The port days were exciting, waking up in a new destination is something we really enjoyed. We stopped at Malaga (very nice), Cannes (nice in parts), Barcelona (fantastic), Palma (we spent the day at Palma Nova beach which is nearby and very good), Valencia (very nice), Catagena (hidden gem with a great Roman Theatre), Lisbon (very good with a fantastic suspension bridge) and Vigo (nice). We would note that we did not go on any excursions as they were very expensive. At some of the ports shuttle buses were provided at a charge (RCI apparently made no money from these as the Port Agent arranged), these were expensive ($10 or $15 dollar) for what they were and if we went again, certainly at Malaga we would either walk or get a taxi into town as it wasn't actually very far.
One of the hot topics of debate for most cruises is that of gratuities. We paid ours upfront but some people choose to cancel this when on-board, paying tips as they went along (apparently). We would note that the American culture is very different to ours in the UK and a number of staff receive very little basic pay meaning that gratuities make up a lot of their wages.
All in all this was a very positive experience for us and we would highly recommend cruising with Royal Caribbean. We will certainly go on another one in the not so distance future and are already considering our options for next year. Less

Gay pride fines will now be doled out against homosexuals in Russia who spread "gay propaganda," a decision many activist groups believe could essentially ban all pubic displays of homosexuality.
Russia's President Vladimir Putin will sign a law banning what the lower house of parliament calls gay propaganda. Shortly after the gay pride fines were passed, several activists were detained for holding a kissing protest.
The gay pride fines are not yet set in stone. They still must be approved by Russia's upper house of parliament and signed by Putin, but both are expected to come.
The legislature essentially makes displays of homosexuality illegal. The specific language bans the spread of "propaganda of nontraditional sexual relations," or any relations "not conducive to procreation," for anyone under age 18.
The law seems intentionally vague, leading to what will likely be a wide-ranging ban of gay pride parades and even popular culture. Some of the Communist leaders argued that Elton John's clothing choices would qualify as "gay propaganda," and said Madonna would be cited for promoting homosexual causes in her music.
Russia has struggled to accept homosexuality, which was only decriminalized in 1993. Anti-gay sentiment remains high, as was seen in a recent attack on a gay man.
The 23-year-old man was found naked in the courtyard of an apartment building in the southern city of Volgograd. He suffered numerous injuries across his body and genitals and authorities said he had been sodomized with several beer bottles.
Though Russian officials rarely admit hate crimes, they said the man was clearly targeted for his homosexuality.
"He was raped with beer bottles and had his skull smashed with a stone," Natalia Kunitskaya, a spokeswoman for the Volgograd region branch of the Investigative Committee, told AFP.
Russian officials have legislated against homosexuality. The house recently passed a measure to ban gay couples from adopting.
The gay pride fines could cost individuals up to 5,000 rubles ($156). Media organizations can face fines up to 1 million rubles ($31,000).

Online shopping has been one of the most proficient creations that are built on top of the internet. With a lot of products nowadays being sold over the web, it is a commonplace to get goods at affordable prices that are very competitive. To make deals even sweeter, most manufacturers and service providers do give large discounts on their products to ensure that people buy them in large numbers. The real issue is finding these discounts. In this article, we look at some of the best ways to find product discounts on the web. Resources such as sconti amazon do their best to make this easier but is always a good idea to know how to traverse these treacherous waters yourself.
Tips to get discounts when shopping online
Check for offers
As described in the introductory section of this article, companies do offer discounts to give their products a breakthrough in their particular niche market. By just checking the company website, you can get specific discounts by getting special offers. Most businesses do this to attract new customers and keep the current ones. Therefore, make sure to check the manufacturer's website before you buy a given product.
Holiday offers
We all love holidays and manufacturers know this. To make our holidays even more impressive, they create special campaigns that entail lots of discounts. These offers are tailored to creating a lasting good image of the company, but at the end of the day, you get the best product prices. Holidays such as Easter and Christmas are very rife with offers such as black Friday where products hit rock bottom prices. These holidays are very frequent, and you should watch out for them.
Reviews are a hotbed for product discounts. Many reviewers run what is called an affiliate program, where they have an understanding with the companies to allow the reviews readers buy stuff at a discount.

Gamers have been complaining that playing the new Nintendo 3DS console is making them feel dizzy and giving them headaches.
A gaming website found around 50 comments from tech fans on Twitter.
One user wrote "Just played the 3DS, now I'm dizzy", while another posted "the thing gave me a really bad headache".
A Nintendo spokesman said they hadn't received any calls from customers about this problem.
He advised players "to find the distance and angle that is most comfortable for them" and recommended taking frequent breaks.
He added: "When viewing any kind of 3D images (TV, movies etc), some people might experience minor discomfort. The effects are short term and have no lasting effect."
The Nintendo 3DS is designed to allow 3D gameplay without glasses. It was released in the UK at midnight on Friday.
Has the Nintendo 3DS made you sick?

Quick Take on Thomas Sully
'Express Talk' at Milwaukee Art Museum
Screen Printing Studio
RedLine Milwaukee
1422 N. Fourth St.
On Dec. 15 the Jewish Museum Milwaukee unveiled Andy Warhol's "Ten Portraits of Jews of the 20th Century." I suspect the show has you chomping at the bit to make some Warholian art of your own, and RedLine Milwaukee is here to help. On Thursday, Dec. 19, from 5-8 p.m., RedLine's Screen Printing Studio will give you the skills you need to explore the medium that helped Warhol make his name. The $40 fee seems all the more reasonable when you consider the striking holiday gifts that may result.
Dog Days at Lynden Sculpture Garden
Lynden Sculpture Garden
2145 W. Brown Deer Road
It is official: Milwaukee winter has arrived. Thankfully it warms the heart, if not the toes, to see our dogs still relish their time outdoors. Dog Days at the Lynden Sculpture Garden lets us treat our dogs to some company and ourselves to some art at the same time. From noon until 5 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 21, exercise, socialize and cultivate your quadruped by exposing faithful Argos to the invigorating fresh air, new dog friends and Lynden's many magnificent sculptures. It makes the winter a bit more endurable.

The law might be a serious business but in a world where language is king, it is not entirely surprising when practitioners swap the rigours of drafting contracts for drafting jokes.
Three Sydney women, under the moniker Aggressively Helpful, have made the leap to comedy and are testing their mettle this weekend with a new show at the Adelaide Fringe and in April at Sydney's Comedy Festival.
Alex Wasiel, who resigned from Ashurst Australia earlier this year, is under no illusion that life on the stage will be easier than behind a desk.
"Is comedy hard work? Yes, very. Particularly if you want to be funny."
But she and Alice Fraser, who left Allens to do comedy full-time, say their corporate experience has been invaluable. "I find it much easier to do comedy now I've done law," Fraser says. "You know what a work ethic looks like and I know exactly how much my time is worth."
It is an unsettling thing to interview comedians who speak fluent legalese, particularly when they refer to the benefits of being "a little bit more client focused" than their peers. "A lot of comedians are very focused on themselves, but once you're in the law environment, you become a product and you are being sold," Fraser says.
"Part of that is figuring out what you offer the client. So for comedy, it's not 'how do I make myself a star' but 'what do I bring to the table that the audience might want'?"
Wasiel and Fraser met doing the 2007 Sydney Law Revue while Justine Rogers, who came to the game two years ago, was the self-described "zany MC" during her Oxford days.
Wasiel and Fraser have flown the gilded cage for good, but Rogers, who lectures full-time at the University of NSW, says she loves academia too much to become a career comedian.
"The reward would have to be pretty high for me to want to leave, because I get immense pleasure out of teaching," she says. "I read books and think, can I turn something intellectual into something funny too?"
For Wasiel, her practice as a defamation lawyer at Ashurst was a veritable minefield for comedy. "Because it's about language you're constantly looking at what things mean to different people. It's absolutely not a science, it's an art that is fine-tuned, and then it turns into a sport. What did it mean for the person saying it? What it does it mean for the reader?The correlation between that [law] game and the comedy game is uncanny at times."
Wasiel said while she enjoyed her work as a solicitor, maintaining a full-time career in corporate law, while having a serious go at comedy, was never going to work out.
"There were some nights I was booked for gigs, but I would have been in witness interviews for eight or nine hours, so you're basically running to your show in a suit. You'd forget your comedy outfit - your jeans and your Converse [shoes], so you'd be delivering all these lines in a suit."
Wasiel's career at the firm lasted a few more years than Fraser, who knew from the outset she was better suited to a different job. "I did the graduate program at Allens - square peg round hole. It was literally like every time I walked into a room people would stare at me strangely," she says.
Educated in Sydney and at Cambridge, Fraser has done stand-up in New York city and locally. She said it was a matter of priorities being revealed, rather than decided.
"When you spend the last three hours of your workday doing something else, you realise that that's what is important to you.'
"There's a rhetoric that people buy into in those firms which is, if you drop out, you're weak. But the reality is that I have a different preference, or I have different skills. I'm better at other stuff. That doesn't make me a bad human being."
Rogers agrees with the sentiment. Although she's never worked in a firm, she's conscious about people's expectations - more so given her Oxford doctorate was in sociology and law.
"It's not like we haven't done our time in terms of doing the socially acceptable things. We've already followed the injunctions around what it means to be a successful young person. Then you get to the stage where you think you've done enough, jumped enough hoops."
She says the biggest issue for many people working at a firm, or for that matter in any conventional corporate role, is the fact colleagues and bosses, even family, often resort to using scare tactics to stop you making alternative choices.
"They'll say, you're done now, and you cant get back in. That's not how it is. You can make a few mistakes and it won't destroy your life."

Living in Miami to attend medical school and study public health.
Looking for wierdos and queers and radicals to start projects with and chill on the beach. I'm very happily dating a person right now and sincerely just looking for friends in the strange & beautiful dystopia that is south florida.
I like activity. I like running, biking, hiking, exploring the woods and learning about mushrooms and edible/medicinal plants. I like non-fiction, spicy vegan food made by, with and for friends.
I'm devoted to being the best possible friend I can be, to be emotionally generous as much as possible, to be patient and gentle and kind.
-making huge delicious meals for large groups of people
I read mostly non-fiction. I love radical people's histories. Vijay Prashad, Silvia Federici.
Non-Fiction: Por los caminos de Chalatenango. Yes Means Yes! How Non-Violence Protects the State. Possibilities. The Shock Doctrine. Cunt. The Second Sex. bell hooks, Kate Bornstein, Mattilda Bernstein Sycamore, INCITE! David Simon.
Fiction: Cat's Cradle. The God of Small Things. Lord of the Rings. Italo Calvino. Orwell, Ursula K. Le Guin. Roald Dahl.
I'm also a huge fan of comics! I grew up in a comic book shop. V for Vendetta and other Alan Moore stuff. Y, the Last Man. Usagi Yojimbo. The Walking Dead.
I really enjoy films where the underdogs win like Micmacs à tire-larigot, faggy John Waters and Almodóvar films, intensely political horror films, epics, documentaries about radical resistance movements and cultures, like Kanehsatake. I like Spaghetti Westerns, films about the Mexico/US Border, Miyazaki.
I haven't seen as many films as I'd like to.
My favorite album is Sam Cooke's 1964 Live at the Harlem Square Club. Besides that, I mostly listen to the music that my friends make. I'm into punk, hiphop, doom pop, hardcore, Nuyorican salsa, freak folk, Delta blues, bossa nova, roots & ruckus, bachata, rancheros, romanticas, anarchist metal, 80s-90s rockero, danceable hipster nonsense like matt and kim, crystal castles and passion pit and justice. ska, riot grrrrrrrl, phil elvram projects, perfume genius.
Hella vegan delicious everything. I love cooking.

Fasig-Tipton February: Red Piano brings $150,000
Red Piano, dam of stakes winner Pianist, got the Fasig-Tipton Kentucky winter mixed sale off to a fast start on Monday, selling to Jayne Johnson, agent, for $150,000.
The 12-year-old Red Ransom mare is the dam of two winners from three to race, led by Pianist, winner of the Given Stakes at Belmont Park last year. Pianist won her 2013 bow on Thursday, edging away to win an optional claiming race at Gulfstream Park by 1 3/4 lengths.
"[Pianist] got a 94 Beyer the other day," said Adrian Regan of consignor Hunter Valley Farm, agent. "Pianist looks like she could be a really nice filly this year. This was her first run back and she won easy with a fast time."
Red Piano, bred in Kentucky by Vinery LLC, was sold in foal to Exchange Rate. The mare won two of five starts during her racing career in the U.S. and France for earnings of $59,762.
Red Piano is out of the Nureyev mare Spinet, the dam of two winners from as many starters, including Grade 3-placed winner and sire Stanislavsky. Her notable family members include Irish champion sprinter Prince of Birds, Italian Group 1 winner Sudan, and Grade 2 winner Special Happening.
This is the highest price that Red Piano has drawn in three trips through ring at public auction. She sold for $5,000 as a broodmare at the 2010 Keeneland November breeding stock sale, and did not meet her reserve in the 2002 Keeneland September yearling sale, with a final bid of $45,000.

Even though seemandhra leaders from all parties and CM Kiran Kumar Reddy requested YSRCP and its leader Jagan Mohan Reddy to participate in the telangana bill discussion that is currently going on in Assembly, Jagan Mohan Reddy's party is not allowing discussion.
In fact its members were suspended with the repeated demanded for resolution in Assembly for united Andhra Pradesh before starting any discussion. Though other party leaders started accusing Jagan of entering into secret pact with Sonia Gandhi and is thus fastening the process of Telanagna weakening the seemandhra support numbers, Jagan is hellbent on not changing the party's stand.
Sources say YSRCP is keen to striking back with a 'Master Plan' to decimate other seemandhra leaders. Analysts say Jagan is planning to go with the same demand in front of people and paint other party leaders as traitors. They are planning to send signals that if assembly passes united Andhra Pradesh resolution, then they are open for any discussion in the assembly.
The party feels only if a resolution for united Andhra Pradesh is passed in the assembly, entire nation, President Pranab Mukherjee understands that people of Andhra Pradesh donot want the state to be divided at any cost.

BIANCA Chatfield and Renae Hallinan - who couldn't break into the Australian team a year ago - are the frontrunners to win the player-of-the-year award.
The race for the game's most prestigious Australian award, the Liz Ellis Diamond, to be presented in Melbourne on Saturday night, is wide open.
With Lisa Alexander at the helm, there were 17 players who won a Test cap this year, with the new coach electing to rotate a line-up that was affected by a string of injuries.
Goalkeeper Chatfield was recalled to the Diamonds after a two-year absence on the back of her starring role in the Melbourne Vixens' march to the grand final. Wing defence Hallinan also fell out of favour in 2010 and missed last year's world championship victory but revived her career with a move to the Adelaide Thunderbirds.
■Kimberley Ravaillion and April Letton are the two new faces in the Australian team for the three-Test tour of England.
NSW Swifts defender Letton, 22, and Queensland Firebirds mid-courter Ravaillion, 19, represent the future of the squad, which is building towards the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow and the 2015 world championships in Sydney.
AUSTRALIA: Caitlin Bassett (West Coast Fever), Erin Bell (Adelaide Thunderbirds), Madison Browne (Melbourne Vixens), Rebecca Bulley (Adelaide Thunderbirds), Catherine Cox (West Coast Fever), Mo'onia Gerrard (NSW Swifts), Chanel Gomes (West Coast Fever), Renae Hallinan (Adelaide Thunderbirds), April Letton (NSW Swifts), Susan Pratley (NSW Swifts), Kimberley Ravaillion (Queensland Firebirds), Natalie von Bertouch (Adelaide Thunderbirds).

MARK Ricciuto has conceded his faith in the Adelaide Football Club is being strongly tested by the Kurt Tippett salary cap scandal but hopes the Crows will go some way to repairing their damaged reputation at the forthcoming AFL hearing.
Ricciuto discussed the saga on Triple M yesterday morning and as is his way, initially tried to brighten up what is an increasingly gloomy outlook for his former club.
"The squeaky clean Crows are in trouble here aren't they?" Ricciuto said.
"I hope they (AFL investigators) don't go back too far ... I think I might be heading back to Waikerie."
But the former captain became serious when asked how he was coping with on-going revelations surrounding the club and alleged third-party deals involving some players.
"I can't believe it, I honestly can't believe it," he said.
"Some of the allegations coming out sound a little bit dumb and a little bit simple and I'd be surprised if they are correct.
"But the AFL don't charge people unless they've got a pretty good reason to do it. I've just got my fingers crossed this doesn't end up as bad as what it's looking like at the moment."
Asked whether heads should roll at West Lakes, Ricciuto said: "The longer it goes and the deeper it gets it's going to be hard for heads not to roll ... not that I'm accusing anyone or actually knowing exactly what's going on."
The champion Brownlow Medallist also revealed his frustration with the Tippett camp.
"I think everyone would be a bit annoyed with Kurt at the moment," Ricciuto said.
"He's a good lad and I always got along real well with Kurt. I can't believe he left and I don't understand why he left. He had everything right here, very good money, good team all of that.
"In some ways I think he's getting back a bit of just desserts for doing what he did."
Former Crow and Norwood premiership coach Nathan Bassett said he had never seen or heard of illegal third-party deals during his time at West Lakes.
And he said he had never been offered one himself.
"Have you seen the car I drive?" Bassett said.

People eat three times a day to prevent mouthy mouths from brashly blurting out their distaste for the rest of the digestive system. Today's Groupon prevents inner-system quarreling by subduing chatty cheeks with Thai eats: for $15, you get $30 worth of Thai cuisine and drinks at Cafetasia. This Groupon is valid at two locationsin the East Village or in Greenwich Villagebut is not valid for happy-hour specials or with other offers.
Start a meal off at either Cafetasia with a sampling of its menuthe tasting menu allows diners to select three small plates for $11. Try golden scallops, virgin summer rolls, and a thai crepe ($4$5 each when purchased separately), before delving into the medium, large, or moon-size menu sections. Moderate eaters can satisfy stomach rumblings with a medium plate of mussels basil, steamed with a spicy basil-lemongrass sauce ($6), and ravenous companions can chow down on a main dish of red snapper rad prik ($13). There are a few differences between the two locations' menus, but both locations serve an appetite-pummeling pad thai (including shrimp, smoked tofu, and peanuts: $9).
Cafetasia's outposts are both located in trendy, hip locales, but if your romantic interest happens to love dining in the presence of a giant pachyderm painting, head to the East Village incarnation. With design accents including subway tile, marble tabletops, wooden chandeliers, and magically floating candles, Cafetasia's atmosphere will stick in your mind's eye like a juicy, painfully delicious tamarind seed.

Two-toned colorways of SB Dunks make up the bulk of the first few seasons of Nike SB, and not surprisingly, those are among the most coveted as 'daily beater' Dunks. The 2005 release of the J-Pack is certainly among the best of that category, and despite this pink-box release not having any cool ties to any artist or skateshop, these continue to be a standout among the powerful 2005 line-up of releases. These were dubbed the 'J-Pack', or 'Jordan Pack', for its resemblance to the original Black/Royal Air Jordan 1 as well as 'Cookie Monster' for obvious reasons, but 'J-Pack' has become the accepted moniker as future SB Dunk releases color-blocked in similar manner would commonly be connect with the 2005 release as 'Neon J-Pack' and 'Tiffany J-Pack'. The 'J-Pack' proves that not every hot release is a limited affair or an artist collaboration, so enjoy this Classics Revisited and let us know if you've got the J-Packs stashed in your closet.

TORONTO, Aug 25 (Reuters) - The Bank of Canada has room to keep interest rates low even if employment starts to pick up, Governor Stephen Poloz said on the sidelines of a central banker gathering on Friday, according to a Bloomberg report.
Persistent slack in Canada's labor market and the tendency toward part-time job creation has restrained the country's income growth, Poloz said in an interview at the meeting of policymakers in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, noting the trend of employment growth has been around 1 percent for some time.
"We're confident there's quite a bit of room to grow and, particularly since our interest rates are already at 1 percent, we figure we've got time to watch this unfold," Poloz said.
The Bank of Canada has held rates at 1 percent since 2010 and is widely expected to keep them there when it releases its next policy statement on Sept. 3.
Although the most recent jobs report showed Canada created 41,700 jobs in July, that was fueled by part-time jobs while full-time positions actually dropped by 18,100.
Last month's jobs report had to be restated after Statistics Canada withdrew the initial erroneous report that showed just 200 new jobs had been created.
Poloz told Bloomberg he has "no concerns at all" about the quality of the data from Statistics Canada.
Poloz also told the news agency that investors who think he favors a weaker Canadian dollar are mistaken, and it is to be expected that the currency would weaken at a time when the U.S. economy is gathering momentum.
"The fact the Canadian dollar came down from over 100 to around the 90 area is something which in certain sectors of our export economy would be a welcome development," Poloz said.
"They've been severely stressed during this period of weak growth plus a strong exchange rate. Normally exchange rates act as a shock absorber." (Reporting by Leah Schnurr; Editing by Jeffrey Hodgson and Tom Brown)

Live Titles Show for Playgrounds International Digital Arts Festival 2011.
Playgrounds Festival asked us to create a title sequence for their 2011 edition. The brief was basically this: please make the titles for Playgrounds 2011 but do it in such a way that it's more than just a video - it needs to be a 'you-should-have-been-there' moment.
Together with Playgrounds we came up with the idea of a live show wherein the speakers at the festival -without knowing beforehand- would perform their own titles.
We can safely say this performance/ video is one of the weirdest and most stressfull things we did so far. We're really happy with the end result and the fact that everybody, from audience and speakers to our janitors seemed to enjoy these crazy 5 minutes.
THANKS! Leon, Joris, Fons, Heerko, Diderik, Bram, Sander, Wessel, Wouter, Brecht, Bram, Emma, Jonas, Jeroen, Rik, Koos, Bas, David, Niek, all the Playgrounds speakers and the audience.

Have Relationship Questions? Ask a Counselor for Answers ASAP
If you are suicidal you have to reach out to your local hospital or to a suicidal hot line in your area. If you are not then you have the right to end this relationship. I understand he said they are friends but it is difficult to have your boyfriend communicating or even flirting with this person. It is hard to believe him when you have trust issues so you have to decide if this relationship is making you happy. Whether he is communicating with her or not it has to make you happy. Otherwise you are miserable! He has to compromise too. If he wants to make you happy he will find a solution. A relationship is all about compromise and he is no exception. If you have broken up then you did the right thing for you. He has to want to make you happy. I think you did the right thing. This situation isn't going to be okay. You may have different ideas of what is appropriate and that is always going to be a problem. Do what works for you.
Please press positive feedback or I am not compensated
