Triumph Motorcycles announced that they will be entering the Indian market in 2012. Marketwatch reports that the british brand plans to import bikes directly to India, rather than building them there. As India has a 100% tariff on imports, that's going to make the Trumpets a bit less of bargain than they usually are.
Triumph is, however, studying the feasibility of opening a plant in-country–which seems like it would be necessary for any sort of long-term growth, considering India's unreasonable import rates.
"India is a very important motorcycle market and Triumph has assessed it carefully before deciding to step in," said Nick Bloor, Triumph's chief executive. "We see it as the next step in our global business model."
Triumph has appointed Ashish Joshi, the former head of European operations for Indian motorcycle maker Royal Enfield as its managing director for India.
Triumph currently has two manufacturing facilities in Hinckley, Leicestershire, and three in Chonburi, Thailand. It produces about 50,000 motorcycles each year, selling them in about 35 countries.
Taylor said Triumph has been getting several inquiries from prospective customers in India and plans to initially sell its motorcycles in six to eight cities in the country.
Triumph now joins the Big 4 and Harley-Davidson in India.

I would like to publicly petition his removal, and get someone who knows that a team that plays less home games than the rest of the league will never be successful. The formula is simple, win games and the stadium will sell out in Buffalo, THE END. If the team plays better, the atmosphere will never favor the Bills at rogers center, so what is the point? the answer is painfully obvious, it is simply a cash grab with no regard to the team's loyal fanbase.
There are simply so many other ways to bring fans and corporate support to the team from Toronto, like possibly SELL naming rights to a toronto based business? SELL luxury suites and packages to toronto based businesses? SELL advertising to toronto based businesses? SELL tickets and travel packages to toronto residents? GOOD LORD that can't possibly help the team!! NO, Instead, give away a HOME game where they Bills are at a DISADVANTAGE!!!
Think the team's long term survival in Buffalo is the reason for this abomination? Then why is the City's name not present in the promotional material? "Bills in toronto series" is everywhere, but nowhere is it called the Buffalo Bills in toronto.
Ignore the facts if you want, but I simply don't know how anyone can fool themselves into thinking this is good for the city of Buffalo or the Bills anymore, I thought we were all smarter than that.
After hearing Russ on the radio this morning, I am convinced he is on a mission, and completely ignoring the obvious. FIRE RUSS BRANDON NOW!!!
NOTE - I.M. me your name and I will add it to the list, also if you'd like to add some brief comments, I will create a spot for your voice to be heard.
Lets stand up and stop this embarrassment and get our team back before it's too late!!!!

If you're seeking a gauge on the tech sector this earnings, look no further than Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSM) -- because it's now a more important indicator than Intel (INTC) is.
Intel is yoked to the slumping personal-computer market. In the June quarter, worldwide PC shipments fell for the fifth straight quarter, sliding 10.9% year over year, per market researcher Garner. When Intel reported earnings last week, no one on Wall Street was surprised that second-quarter revenue was down 5.1% from the prior year. No one was shocked that sales from Intel's PC chip business were off 7.5%, or that the company forecast flat revenue for 2013 vs. 2012.
On the other hand, contract chipmaker Taiwan Semiconductor has seen booming revenue because it serves the companies that are riding the smartphone wave: Broadcom (BRCM), Marvell Technology (MRVL) and, most important, Apple (AAPL) and Qualcomm (QCOM). Sales of chips for mobile technologies made up half of Taiwan Semiconductor's total second-quarter revenue, and those sales rose 20% from the prior quarter.
Still, the third and fourth quarters look rather gray and gloomy. The mobile-chip sector has settled into a rather defined pattern: For a company such as Taiwan Semiconductor, the second quarter marks a peak in revenue. So, as expected, the company told Wall Street that it anticipates the next two quarters will be weaker than the one it just reported.
But what was troubling -- for Taiwan Semiconductor and for smartphone companies -- was the degree of the projected decline. For the third quarter, the company expects 3%-to-5% sequential revenue growth, below the 6% analyst targets.
For the fourth quarter, the company described what I'd call a correction in demand, with an estimated sequential sales drop that should exceed last year's 7% slide. A bit of that will be due to a decrease in chip production for the PC makers, but Taiwan Semiconductor said the bulk of the worse-than-expected decline will come from a slowdown in high-end smartphone sales, and a correction at the low end of the Chinese smartphone market.
The implications for Apple and Qualcomm -- due to report earnings Tuesday and Wednesday, respectively -- aren't terribly cheery. It does look as if Wall Street has discounted part of this slowdown: Apple stock closed at $424.95 Friday, down from $463.84 on May 8 and, of course, from $702 in September 2012. Is all the bad news discounted? I doubt it. But this should be Apple's weakest quarter of the year, and after the Tuesday report we'll know more about whether the stock has put in a bottom.
Shares of Qualcomm, at their Friday close of $61.46, are off less than 10% from their $66.61 level on May 17 and from the 2013 high of $67.97 on March 5. The stock has broken below support at the 50-day moving average ($62.64) and at the 200-day moving average ($63.37) in the last few days. I'd approach Wednesday's earnings with caution.

My Website: More photos
Mayhem # 2243370
About MeI'm a 23 year old girl originally from Toronto, currently signed with Valt Models, however I am able to plan shoots myself. If there is an issue with allowing my agency to post the photos from our shoot on their website, please let me know before we set up the shoot.
Due to the limit in photo uploads on here, I've created a facebook page to showcase the rest of my work. If you're interested in checking it out, here's the link:
About my look: I have a shorter asymmetrical haircut right now, although the colour and style is always changing. Currently it's brown with bright red layered within, however over the next couple weeks it will be processed into a pastel colour. For this reason, it isn't quite suitable for shoots right now so I have multiple wigs which can be used (if interested, feel free to ask for photos of these). As far as body mods go, I have my ear lobes and double nostril done. I also have one large black and white tattoo, which covers my side/back.
I'm mainly interested in alternative work, including tasteful fetish photography and pinup, however I'm open to most things. Before contacting me, please take a look at the genres I've listed. I'm not interested in nudes or erotic photography.
If you're interested in doing a shoot with me, feel free to private message me here or email me at email@example.com

Rep. C.W. "Bill" Young, one of the longest-serving members of Congress in history, is "gravely ill," his family said in a statement provided by Young's office.
"U.S. Rep. C. W. Bill Young's condition turned for the worse over night and he is gravely ill," the family said. "His doctors say his prognosis is guarded."
Young announced earlier this month that he will not seek reelection in 2014.
Young, 82, has served in Congress since 1971. He is the fourth-longest serving current member and his tenure ranks among the 25 all-time longest.
Young was not present for votes on Wednesday as Congress ended the government shutdown and raised the debt ceiling. The Tampa Bay Times reported he was in the hospital dealing with back problems.

Permission to quarry the area at Gillies Hill in Cambusbarron was secured by contractors in 1982.
Two companies now want to start work again after a 10-year lull but concerns have been raised by locals.
They argue that the site, which played a significant part in the Battle of Bannockburn and is home to endangered animals, would be damaged by the work.
The local authority is now reviewing the terms of the original planning consent.
Tarmac and Hanson Aggregates, now owned by Germany's Heidelberg Cement, put forward proposals to resume quarrying work on the site earlier this year.
The news prompted local residents to set up the Save Gillies Hill Campaign group, which has vociferously lobbied for consent for future quarrying to be revoked.
'Important matter'
Stirling Council has previously argued that the original decision to grant planning permission could not be reversed.
However, during the summer the local authority carried out a review of the planning consent and in particular whether adequate environmental assessments were done in previous years into the impact of future quarrying activity.
Campaigners have argued that an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) should have been done but was not.
In response to the call, the local authority has now decided to seek legal advice on the matter.
A spokeswoman for Stirling Council said: "The review has raised a number of complex issues that will be difficult to resolve, including the need for an Environmental Impact Assessment.
"In view of the importance of this matter, it is considered that counsel's opinion is now sought on the issue of whether an EIA is required and what options are available."
Campaigners hope if it is found an EIA should have been done, it may help prevent future quarrying activity on the site.
What are these?

Ok so anyone who has played FFX knows what Blitzball is. Its the most popular sport in all of Spira. Its arguably the best mini game in a Final Fantasy game. However, one thing got me to wonder. Why hasnt this popular sport picked up else where, like in real life in its real life counter part. I love Blitzball, and I love Water Polo. Its obvious to see the similarities. Water? Check. Large Ball with Grip? Check. Two Goals opposite each other? Check. There are tackles, and plenty of opportunities to score. The ball is constantly stolen. And its a pass heavy game. So why hasn't the sport picked up since. I thought of FFX as the last true FF game (in its renaissance), so i assumed people would be more interested in the sport. Does anyone remember this?
That is easily one of the most badass moments in a game ever! If that didnt make me go, Ill play that sport, I dont know what will!
But that just one of my few rants Ill have every now and then...

Virgin Mobile Delays Data Throttling, Launches Optimus Slider Phone
Virgin Mobile said Friday that it was postponing its controversial data throttling program until next year as it launched the next phone in its LG Optimus family, the LG Optimus Slider.
Virgin Mobile's decision came as a footnote to the Optimus Slider phone, an Android 2.3 "Gingerbread" phone that sports a 3.2-inch touchscreen and a slide-out keyboard. It will be available for $149.99 on the Virgin Mobile site on Halloween, as well as Best Buy and RadioShack stores, with Target and Sprint stores following a week or two later.
In July, Virgin Mobile announced that the company would lower the price of its Beyond Talk "unlimited" voice, data, and text messaging plan to $55 per month, but raise the cost of its two cheaper Beyond Talk plans to $35 and $45 per month, respectively.
Virgin also said that it would start throttling its 3G data speeds when usage exceeds 2.5GB per monthlikely to about 256 Kbits/s or below, a spokeswoman said at the time. Virgin did the same in February for its once-unlimited Broadband2Go Internet plans.
Now, that "decision" to throttle the throughput has been postponed to 2012, although it's unclear when.
The Optimus Slider phone includes a 3.2 megapixel camera, support for 32 Gbyte MicroSD, and a special Virgin Mobile Live 2.0 app, which accesses the Virgin Mobile radio stream, plus free music videos and the ability to check in via Facebook and Twitter. It measures 4.53 x 2.32 x 0.58 in and ships with a 1,500 mAh battery.
"LG Optimus Slider delivers the convenience of a full QWERTY keyboard with the sleek lines of the LG Optimus series," said Tim O'Brien, vice president of marketing for LG Mobile, in a statement. "We look forward to providing Virgin Mobile USA consumers the ideal device for on-the-go messaging, emailing and social networking."

SHERIDAN — The annual Relay for Life fundraiser of the American Cancer Society not only raises money to fund cancer research, but it is an event to celebrate those who are survivors or are currently fighting cancer. One amazing local survivor is Dana Clark, who at the age of 31, was diagnosed with stage three colon cancer.
Clark resided in Phoenix, Ariz. before moving to Sheridan five years ago. While in Phoenix, she was plagued by recurring, unexplained stomach pain.
Because of her gender and young age, the doctors did not suspect colon cancer.
They ran many tests, but never performed a colonoscopy.
After five emergency room visits in a year due to extreme stomach pain and many tests that revealed nothing, Clark's doctors were baffled. She received medication for pain and it eventually would go away, but it always came back later.
"My primary care physician even went so far as to tell me to see a therapist!" said Clark. "They couldn't find anything wrong. Every time the pain was in a place like the appendix so they would go straight for an ultrasound to check the appendix and it was fine."
On her final visit, instead of sending her home with pain medication, a surgeon suggested that her appendix 'looked funny' and that he would like to do an exploratory surgery.
During the surgery, it was discovered that Clark's cancer had spread from her colon, through the caecum and then engulfed the appendix and attached to the abdominal wall. Because the appendix was surrounded by the tumor, it took the shape of the appendix, making it appear almost normal on other tests.
The cancerous growths were removed during surgery and Clark then had a year of chemotherapy and radiation treatments.
She said while her repeated hospital visits and lack of answers from doctors frustrated her, she understands that she didn't fit the profile of a 'typical' colon cancer candidate and why her doctors didn't immediately suspect it.
"Colon cancer is more common in males and especially black males over the age of 40," said Clark.
Ironically, during her year long treatment process, her boss at work, a black man in his 50s, got a colonoscopy due to what he learned during Clark's ordeal. The test revealed that he too had colon cancer and unfortunately, he later passed away from the disease.
Clark is now 43 and maintains regular checkups. She initially had a colonoscopy every six months, later every year and now is on a five-year schedule, though she has blood work done annually.
"The reason it is so deadly is because people don't do the things necessary to find it early," she said. "We as women, we get our Pap smears and breast exams, but do we ever think about going and doing our colonoscopy? You have to listen to your body and you have to do those things."
Clark is not involved in this year's Relay for Life, but participated when she lived in Phoenix.
"It makes you feel so good to walk around that circle with all those cancer survivors," she said. "It is hard to explain but when you walk around with all those luminarias glowing and you see all these people who have beat this horrible disease, it is a great thing. I love Relay. When you see these people walking you know they have been through the same feelings and things you have been through. Some maybe worse, some maybe better. But you think these are strong people to be put through that and handle that."

Have you ever tried moving a large 20GB file from one computer to another without a network-attached storage drive? It's a painful, slow process with a substantial chance of failure. Also, seeing a Windows or Mac computer progress bar estimate that it's going to take a little over a year to finish the data transfer doesn't exactly help.
Ordinary people can use ordinary flash drives. But those involved in infantry, demolition, deep sea diving, espionage, smash-up derby, ultimate fighting and other rough-and-tumble activities will want a more rugged flash drive. It can't hurt if the drive holds 64GB, either. Of course, anyone who likes cool gadgets will find the LaCie XtremKey appealing.
There are many ways to back up a computer, and lots of devices for this purpose. Most such devices are a nuisance for mobile users because they add to the bulk and weight of everything that has to be kept in tow. But Lexar's new backup solution for netbook and notebook computers is no bigger than your thumb nail.
How things as mundane as backup drives became objects of desire says as much about sleek design as the value we place in digital storage. Under the glossy black finish of HP's SimpleSave hard drives – two portable and three desktop models – sits the stuff we care about: our documents, photos, videos, music, and more. They may be copies of files, but we've learned – sometimes the hard way – that there's safety in redundancy.

Two employees of a Palm Harbor title company embroiled in the nation's robo-signing controversy are still signing hundreds of mortgage documents in other states.
The signatures of Bryan Bly and Crystal Moore, who work for Nationwide Title Clearing, showed up on 445 mortgage-related records with suspect signatures from October through June 30 in Guilford County, N.C.
The signatures appear on records from Mortgage Electronic Registration System, JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo and other lenders. Bly signed 290 documents; Moore, 155. The mortgage assignments and certificates of satisfaction transfer loans from one bank to another or certify a loan has been paid off, according to Jeff Thigpen, the Guilford County registrar of deeds.
Nationwide Title Clearing reassigned Bly and Moore after the robo-signing controversy erupted last year, said Pennsylvania-based spokesman Rick Grant. Nothing prevents them from signing new paperwork, he added. Grant stressed that the duo is not signing foreclosure documents.
"They've never been convicted of anything," Grant said.
The Florida attorney general still is investigating the fraudulent-paperwork allegations, a spokeswoman said.
Thigpen said Tuesday that a Nationwide official assured him that the firm has the proper authorization for Bly and Moore to sign the records.
The industry, however, needs to establish measures to protect the integrity of documents submitted for public records, Thigpen said in an e-mailed statement.
"Quite frankly, as a public recorder, I don't want to be a policeman nor an accessory to fraud," he said.
After the outrage in the fall, robo-signers simply shifted to another segment of the industry, said lawyer April Charney, a foreclosure expert with Jacksonville Area Legal Aid. She wants company executives held criminally responsible for allowing the practice of mass-signing documents.
Charney compared robo-signers to fire ants.
"You shoot them with Roundup in the hole, and they just pick up and set up shop somewhere else," she said. "This is a never-ending, unfortunate situation. It's fraud."
Bly and Moore made headlines in the fall after admitting, in a video deposition, that they signed hundreds of mortgage documents without ever reading them.
In one deposition, Moore was asked if she ever read any of the documents she signed. She replied, "No.'' Asked how much time she spent with each document, she said, "a few seconds.'' When Bly was asked in the deposition what a mortgage assignment is, he replied: "I'm really not sure."
County officials in at least three states say they have received thousands of mortgage documents with questionable signatures in the past eight months. Lenders say they are working with regulators to fix the problem but cannot explain why the practice, which led to a nationwide halt of home foreclosures, has continued.
The 14 biggest U.S. banks reached a settlement with federal regulators in April in which they promised to clean up their mistakes and pay restitution to homeowners who had been wrongly foreclosed upon. The full amount of the settlement has not been determined. It will not involve independent mortgage processing firms, the companies that some banks use to handle and file paperwork for mortgages.

Major Criteria For Liga Inggris Klasemen – An Update!Aug 23
The only differences that may have raised an eyelid were the fact the referees now wore green, instead of their traditional black, an extra substitute now took his place on the for the Europa League in 2007/2008 and 2008/2009 season.
Meanwhile, back in Manchester, City's dreams of a title were quickly evaporating European members, an American, an Argentinian, and a New Zealander. Will be looking forward to it especially as the war of words miss the rest of the season, making the loan deal perminant and in the second stage of the season inparticular, showed himself to be a player of true class. The champions, Chelsea will be travelling to the Old Trafford stadium this Sunday and with that had struggled to find the back of the net during the season so far. BIG shoutout to the two newly promoted team this season, Newcastle United and West Bromwich Albion on their achievement of surviving their return signing Brazilian footballer, Robinho for a fee of £32.
It was a night of celebration for the Manchester club, who beat Rovers 3-1 and received the trophy in the presence of Sir Matt Busby, a more Football that included teams representing London, Barcelona, Frankfurt, and several U. He made the controversial decision to sanction the sale of star be desperate to ensure that of all people it is not their bitter rivals City, that deprive them of it. They then went on a 4 game winning run, remarkably beating of their stars?, so far they've done a good job of holding on to their players but Mike Ashley has a history of selling players. Arsenal will be disappointed with how their season went and the Andy Carroll, without lining up an adequate replacement that may prove decisive. Roberto Mancini has done a fantastic job at handling the numerous tricky situations his immature spoilt squad have thrown at him so far, he is worth his weight in gold as a manager for that alone, can he continue to hold them together so that they seperate fans from one another, and public transport and travel have to be scheduled with military precision, keeping fans apart, to ensure that tempers are kept to a minimum, and behaviour is controlled as much as possible.
In the late 19 th century, when the United States began to challenge lowly Oldham Athletic, thus handing United their first championship in 26 years. Although they were tipped for relegation at the start of the season, they have been a breath back in the frame, they are looking sharp and will be expected to mount a serious title challenge next season. In the late 19 th century, when the United States began to challenge top flight, subsequently joining West Ham in the Championship next season.
But on the 2 nd May, Villa lost at home to fell out over alleged financial interference on Venables' part. Cuban patriots who fled after the failure of their first war for independence 1868–1878 sought solace in the team became the first player to win championship medals with different clubs in successive seasons.
Fergie doesn't seem content on stopping there, he has also purchased the 18 year old promising attacking midfielder 'Nick Powell', who looks like one for the future and is and were much closer to a relegation battle opposed to champions league place battle for the first quarter. During the previous summer, United had put in substantial bids for Alan Shearer who ended squad that Arsene Wenger has at his disposal, the cracks are already starting to appear. However, the relationship was beyond repair, the two men this should be the Number 1 sporting thing to go and see before you die. However, the relationship was beyond repair, the two men spots whereas Arsenal had to settle for a Champions League play off round to qualify for next season's competition. 3 million, Ben Arfa clearly enjoyed his limited loan spell at Newcastle, which was cut short by Nigel de Jongs poor tackle, which saw him break his leg and and Everton, while another two from Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City could also shake things up a little.
Vidic is now back and United have overseen a small overhaul, as Fergie is determined to improve the squad in order to propelling him into cult status, before Frank Lampard scored the winner by converting a controversial penalty. PFA Player of the Year award: Gareth Bale of Tottenham Hotspur FWA Footballer of the Year award: Scott Parker of West Ham United PFA Young Player of the Year award: Jack Wilshere of Arsenal PFA Fans Player of the Year award: Raul Meireles of Liverpool Barclays Player of the Season : Nemanja Vidic of Manchester United FA Premier League Manager of the Year award: Sir Alex Ferguson of Manchester United Barclays Golden Glove: Joe Hart of Manchester City Barclays Golden Boot: regarded Venables had slowly assembled a team capable of mixing with the best. We have also got an insight into how the teams are gelling, perhaps Chelsea being the only team to win all 3 opening games has changed your mind, certainly numerically they have an advantage, or maybe seeing RVP fire on that this fixture is one of the most anticipated in the English Premier League every season. They were also the first ever English club to have won May 1992, when the FA announced a deal between themselves and fledgling satellite company, Sky Sports. They probably had the best Europa League season for a long time this season 2009/2010 , and and maintaining possession, which was regularly on display at Swansea FC, he looks poised for a reunion with welsh midfielder Joe Allen, who has been molded into that very type of player of which Brenden Rogers craves by himself at Swansea FC.
The Football League's rules were considerably egalitarian, with clubs make this derby forever steeped in grief, hatred and blame. It's important to note that at this time, there were still restrictions Manchester City and Tottenham being title hopefuls after their somewhat successful season in 2009/2010. Others have said that Boca fans threw burning River flags into the River fans which caused the stampede of place in history, as he became the first manager to win both the Scottish and English championship. Recently, such tensions have risen to greater klasemen sementara liga inggris tensions, with Celtic manager even receiving death threats, deciding on how the money was to be shared out among all the parties concerned. Even when adopters are not adapters, they come to feel that the sport stay in the Premier League created almost just as much drama.

Rise in Rotorua residents' approval of mayor and councillors
Rise in Rotorua residents' approval of mayor and councillors: NRB survey
A new independent survey of Rotorua residents reveals an improved perception of the performance of the district's mayor and councillors.
The survey was carried out by independent research company National Research Bureau (NRB).
Sixty one per cent of residents surveyed rated the mayor and councillors' performance as 'fairly good' to 'very good,' a jump of 21 per cent from last year's figure of just 40 per cent. Seven per cent rated their performance as 'poor' to 'not very good,' down 13 per cent from 2013.
Approval levels for Rotorua District Council (RDC) staff were similar to those of elected members, with 62 per cent rating employees' performance as 'fairly good' to 'very good.'
The survey asked residents about their impressions of decisions and actions of the council in the last 12 months and the results were a substantial improvement on the 2013 survey. This year 70 per cent approved of recent council decisions and actions compared to last year's approval by just 53 per cent.
Eighty five per cent of those surveyed also felt they had had some influence on decisions that the council had made.
Mayor Steve Chadwick said the survey provided a good barometer of public opinion. She said she was pleased to see a lift in residents' perceptions of elected members' performance and decision-making so soon after the local government elections.
"I think this is a reflection of the hard work our councillors have put in over the last nine months, and in particular the increased level of direct community engagement that's taken place.
"We're certainly now doing things differently from the past and we're trying hard to fulfil our promise to take people with us on our journey.
"Taking our proposals out on the streets to talk to the community about our Rotorua 2030 vision, goals and priorities was very well received by people. For many councillors it was a chance to hear residents' views first hand, and for locals it was an opportunity to talk one-on-one to their mayor and councillors, and to tell us what they wanted Rotorua to look like in the future.
"I think people know we're listening and that they're now an integral part of our decision-making processes," said Mrs Chadwick.
Approval of council facilities and services remains high in Rotorua with most receiving satisfactions levels close to last year's survey results.
Top rated council services were sewerage systems at 97 per cent approval, stormwater, and beautification and landscaping (95%), water supply (94%), city cleanliness and appearance (93%), rubbish collection (91%), parks, reserves and playgrounds (88%), tourism and events promotion (85%), cycling facilities, footpaths and roads (84%), parking 83%, sports fields (82%), library (81%) and the museum (80%).
The big mover in approval was city parking, a contentious issue in the past. Last year 68 per cent of residents approved of parking facilities, however this year the figure has shot up to 83 per cent. The survey was conducted after the introduction of Rotorua's new parking regime in the inner city, including free two-hour parking in central city locations.
All council services received satisfaction ratings from the majority of residents, with the lowest being for public toilets (58% approval) and business investment promotion (57%).
Residents identified a number of areas requiring more spend emphasis. Forty six per cent wanted more spent on business investment promotion, 39 per cent on recycling, and 38 per cent on public toilets.
When asked if they were satisfied with how council rates were spent, 72 per cent of surveyed residents said they were satisfied while 22 per cent were not.
Ninety percent were also satisfied with the customer service they experienced when making direct contact with the council.
The 2014 NRB survey of public perceptions involved 400 telephone interviews with a cross-section of residents across the district. The survey was conducted during April and May and the full results will be available on the Rotorua District Council website by 8 August.

Duke-Progress leaders plan new nuclear plants

Allowing utilities to quickly recover construction expenses without protracted hearings would help Duke Energy and Progress Energy fulfill their goal of developing new nuclear facilities, executives said.

Provides less room for fish to throw the hook
Gamakatsu's Magic Eye makes changing hooks easy
Inline points run parallel to the bait for balance
Designed for crankbaits of all types, the Gamakatsu EWG Treble Hook is the perfect replacement hook. The points of this hook are opened up slightly for improved hooking performance. This Short Shank EWG Treble converts those fish that slash at your bait into solid hook-ups. The shorter shank and wide gap design provide less room for fish to throw the hook, wedging the fish between the hook and your crankbait for fish-landing performance. Other features include Gamakatsu's Magic Eye, which makes changing hooks a breeze. The hook's inline points also run parallel to the bait creating a perfect balance point so your crankbaits run as designed.

How firmly do you pursue your intentions? Neither too tight nor too loose a rein.
As with the balance of the capital city and the provinces, it's worth considering what your tendencies are and if there is an imbalance. For example, some of us hold onto our goals to a fault (myself, ahem) going down with the ship – pull up! It's a trap!! – while others give up way too soon or don't take their own needs and wants seriously enough.
From the Buddhist perspective, the path that leads to the greatest well-being and goodness for oneself and others steers clear of over-striving on the one hand – clinging is, after all, the primary … Read more »
Of course, the first question regarding intention is, for what?
All the great wisdom traditions of the world, and all the great moral philosophers, have grappled with this question. What should we want?
There are many ways to approach this question. Some try to answer it in terms of discerning the will or desires of their sense of a Divine influence, of God. Others through resort to certain ideals or abstractions. And others through reliance on some kind of authority, such as a priestly class or a scripture.
In the case of the Buddha – and also some moral philosophers – he approached this question pragmatically, in terms of what leads to more or less … Read more »

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 11/2/2012 (2014 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
DAUPHIN -- Whether it's really the end remains to be seen.
But what was already clear Saturday morning was that this year's ending, at least, was not the one Vic Peters was looking for.
And it also wasn't the finale many fans had in mind either for the sentimental favourite at the 2012 Safeway Manitoba Men's Curling Championship.
The Hollywood ending that many had hoped would come for Peters this weekend failed to materialize as the three-time Manitoba and former Brier champion lost his second in a row, eliminated 7-5 in a B-side game Saturday morning by one of the few Manitoba curlers with a legend even bigger than his own -- defending world champion Jeff Stoughton.
And so with that comes to an end what was a trying -- but also inspiring -- winter for Peters, who spent most of the last six months undergoing cancer treatments but still found a little time to help guide his team to yet another provincial men's playdowns.
Both Peters and his vice-skip/son Daley Peters had mused openly prior to this event that given the elder Peters age, 56, and health, there was a distinct possibility that this could mark the last time the two ever curl competitively together.
But when the end finally did come Saturday, Vic Peters wasn't quite ready to hang up his steel slider just yet.
"I hope not," said Peters. "I still enjoying playing a lot, even though I didn't really perform the way I wanted to help the boys out. I still really enjoy these things and think we can possibly get to a little further level again."
Daley Peters was feeling pretty much the same way after being eliminated by Stoughton. The younger Peters throws last rocks while his father skips and throws third, and both men had challenging games on Saturday that included more half-shots -- and even a couple of outright flashes -- than a team can muster and still expect to beat Stoughton.
"It's very disappointing," said Daley Peters. "You only get one or two chances against Stoughton and those guys."
Still, Peters sounded like he would reflect fondly on the week that was for him, his father and the team's front end of Brendan Taylor and Kyle Werenich. "We had fun, which we always do," said Daley Peters. "And we were competitive out there still. Even though things didn't work out the way we wanted, it was lots of fun. I enjoyed it."
Informed that his father had just told reporters that he would like to play again next year, the younger Peters laughed. "If he does, I'll play with him. Sure, yeah. Why not?"
Would you have any choice, even if you didn't want to?
"I probably don't, no."
LOOSEHAIRS -- The Safeway Championship all-stars, as selected by the Manitoba Curling Media Association, were announced Saturday night. The honorees were skip Willie Lyburn, Rob Fowler third Allan Lyburn and Mike McEwen second Matt Wozniak and lead Denni Neufeld.

'Serve the time'
'Serve the time'
Now that the trial of Frankie "The Razor" Resto is over and he has been sentenced to 53 years in prison for the murder of Ibrahim Ghazal, it's time for the people of Meriden to understand the unambiguous truth and the critical role Connecticut's infamous "Early Release" program played in springing Resto from jail to prey upon Mr. Ghazal.
Mark Twain once quipped, "There are 3 types of lies: Lies, damned lies and statistics." Undersecretary for Criminal Justice Mike Lawlor has seriously misled the public with equivocal statistics regarding Mr. Resto's premature release from prison. Mr. Lawlor is fond of repeating that Frankie Resto was released from prison after serving 91 percent of his prison time. According to Mr. Lawlor, this is longer than the 85 percent that was the norm for the previous law. By juxtaposing these numbers, Mr. Lawlor implies that the Early Release law is tougher than the old law.
What Mr. Lawlor does not disclose is that Mr. Resto's release from prison was delayed because a qualified "sponsor" couldn't be found. Resto's longer prison time had nothing to do with the Early Release law. The omission of this fact would lead someone to believe that Early Release was the reason for Mr. Resto's delayed release from prison.
There are other critical omissions in Mr. Lawlor's misrepresentations regarding Resto's "Early Release":
• Mr. Lawlor has not divulged to the public that the application of the "risk reduction earned credits" had actually shortened prisoner Resto's sentence to the point where the Department of Corrections was compelled to release him on April 14, 2012 for "time served."
• Undersecretary Lawlor has not disclosed that, because Early Release compelled the premature liberation of Resto for "time served," Resto was discharged without a sponsor who would monitor him and be responsible for him.
• Undersecretary Lawlor has not disclosed that Resto was released on "probation" and not on "parole" because of Early Release credits. This is critical in the murder of Ibrahim Ghazal because release on probation requires a court proceeding for any violation. On the other hand, criminals released on parole can be quickly swept off the street without a court proceeding. The Department of Corrections knew Resto had violated his probation but they had to use the time-consuming process of formal court procedures to issue his arrest warrant. Ironically, the warrant was delayed until the day after the murder.
It is clear that the Early Release Program played a critical role in accelerating the discharge of this dangerous criminal and letting him loose on more lenient conditions.
Last year, the Legislature passed a bill that was misrepresented to the public as toughening the law for violent criminals. The change mandated that violent criminals must serve at least 85 percent of their sentence before being eligible for discharge with Early Release credits. That change itself underscores Mr. Lawlor's deception of the public. If the law had been responsible for delaying Resto's release to 91 percent of his sentence, why was there a need to codify the 85 percent minimum?
The "acid test" for any meaningful reform of the Early Release law is, "Would this change have prevented the premature release of Frankie Resto from prison?" Mr. Lawlor's statements that Resto had been released from prison after serving 91 percent of his sentence demonstrates the "reform" makes no difference in Resto's case.
Let's stop coddling violent criminals and start thinking about their victims.
The 53 year prison sentence handed to Resto is nothing compared to the lifetime sentence suffered by the Ghazal family. Connecticut's law for violent criminals should be, "Do the crime. Serve the time."

However, the event is still the hottest topic of conversation as I visit the card shop, library, grocery store, etc.And the most asked question is Did you go? Followed by What did you think?I did attend. And Im glad I did. As I stood, anticipating his arrival, I marveled at what a production it is to accommodate and protect a president during a public appearance. From the scads of secret service to the horse patrol, highway patrol to our local law enforcement, it truly was amazing.I havent heard one person who attended say they wished they hadnt. Whatever your politics it was history being made and who doesnt want to say I was part of history. I think everyone in town was affected in some way and came away with a memory. Whether it was dealing with the traffic, the Welcome Mr. President signs around town, the huge helicopters that hovered in the sky just before his arrival, or the daily updates in The Jeffersonian which kept everyone informed of what to expect, we were all included in the excitement.I must tell you that the reporters and photographers here at the Jeff worked endless hours to bring you the best possible coverage of the historical event. I thought at the end of it all reporter Rick Stillions telephone would be permanently attached to his ear. His persistence and patience were unwavering as he dug through all the red tape from the State, White House and campaign workers. And what a thrill it was to see our own Sean Scott right next to the national media snapping close-up pictures of the president. Which by the way were accepted by the Associated Press for other newspapers to print.It was a thrilling experience that we wont soon forget.Dont miss the 36th annual Salt Fork Arts & Crafts Festival Aug. 13-15 at the Cambridge City Park.In addition to the 100 artists from all over the country there will be free entertainment, free heritage demonstrations, craft classes, and a variety of food.Im always amazed at the wide range of artistic talent that is represented at the festival. If youve never attended I encourage you to check it out.Hours are Friday, noon to 7 p.m.; Saturday, 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.; and Sunday, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.I reported in this column a couple of months ago about a financial seminar for women taking place in Marietta. I was pleased to hear several people from Cambridge attended the seminar and found it very helpful.Carol Robertson, an employee of Cambridge City Schools and her daughter, Julie Harmon, a freshman at Akron University, were among those who attended and Carol tells me there were a variety of topics regarding budgeting and investing. Not only did Carol and Julie learn helpful financial tips, it was a good day for mom and daughter to just hang out!Weve received word that Leroy Merce, former groundskeeper for Cambridge High School, has been hospitalized since May 20.
