Welcome to the another edition of "What Would You Do?"! If you have a question and would like to know what others would do please contact me and I'll keep it in mind for future editions of "What Would You Do?". To see previous versions, check out the What Would You Do? archives here.
Today I have a question I think many people run into at many points in their lives. Should I spend money to save money? I'm not talking about buying something I don't need to save money. I'm not the type of person to buy a shirt because it is 50% off even though Ialready have 25 other shirts.
Instead, I'm talking about making a couple changes to our house that will save us money down the road. These aren't phantom savings because no matter what, I'll have to incur these costs as long as I own the home. Instead of continuing to incur these costs as I am now, if I make a couple changes, I can dramatically lower these costs over the coming years! So what improvements am I considering?
Should I Buy a Heat Pump Water Heater?
Your first question probably has something to do with what a heat pump water heater is. Valid question, as I hadn't heard of them until my home inspector mentioned them when we bought our house. Basically, a heat pump water heater works like an air conditioner heat pump would to heat your house in the winter. It takes heat out of the air and puts it into the water (rather than heating your house).
They're the same size as a regular water heater but they're much more efficient (hint: they use much less electricity). Did you know that besides heating and cooling your home, your water heater is the second biggest user of electricity?
The only addition is a drain line to take the condensation the heat pump makes out of the water heater area, much like an air conditioner has a drain line. There is one awesome side effect that a heat pump water heater provides. It will air condition my garage for me. How sweet is an air conditioned garage in the hot Florida summers? Pretty sweet.
Until the end of May, Lowe's has a sale on heat pump water heaters for $1,000 ($200 off normal price). Before you freak out and say I'll never recoup the cost I have some awesome news! My power company will give me a $700 rebate if I have a heat pump water heater installed. In addition to that, the federal government will give me a $300 energy efficiency tax rebate! Basically, I only have to pay $60-70 dollars in sales tax and for someone to install the heat pump water heater, which costs about the same as a regular water heater install.
I will have to front the money for the water heater and pay for the sales tax and install, but the savings for the energy efficiency should pay for the costs in 1 to 2 years max. My home inspector also mentioned I'd likely have to replace the water heater in the next 5 or so years so I'd have to eventually pay to have it replaced. It would lose the rest of the water heater's useful life, but I'll gain energy efficiency to pay for that loss.
What would you do? Would you get the heat pump water heater if you were me?
Should I Pay For an Irrigation Water Meter?
The other issue I have has to deal with water as well, just in a different sense. Where I live I can't get well water for my sprinkler system so I unfortunately have to use city water. Currently I only have one water meter for our house which means the city can't tell the difference between water I use in my house and water I use for my lawn. Why does it matter?
My city charges us for both water and sewage. Their are no sewer meters so they assume any water we use goes in the sewer. The problem with this line of thought is that the water I use for my sprinkler system doesn't go through the sewer and I'm paying for it as if it does. Now I haven't had a water bill yet that has included a lot of sprinkler system use, but the summers get hot here and sprinkler systems use a TON of water.
The problem I'm facing is whether or not I should pay for the city to install a second water meter just for my sprinkler system. The city said it shouldn't cost more than $400, but $400 isn't chump change. It could be less, but they won't know until they come out. I'll definitely save enough money to cover the cost eventually, but I don't know if it will be one summer more like 3 years. I just don't have the data. My neighbors said theirs paid for it self very quickly and they have a yard that is similar to mine in size.
I should mention that watering the yard isn't really an option. If it doesn't rain a lot we have to water to keep our yard up. I live in a neighborhood with an homeowner's association so we have to keep our yards to a certain standard. I used to be against homeowners associations, but after seeing some of the neighborhoods around my area, we definitely don't mind paying a small amount quarterly to keep our neighborhood and house values nice.
Would you wait and see how much money you'd potentially save each month, or would you go ahead and get on the list for the city to install an irrigation water meter? I know I'll recoup the cost eventually, but I don't know how fast.
So there you have it! Two water related questions in one What Would You Do? Both have the potential to save me a lot of money over the many years we'll be living in our new home! What would you do?

Samoa Penninsula Fire District receives year's supply of toilet paper
SAMOA- The Samoa Peninsula Fire District has received a year's supply of toilet paper thanks to a donation.
Charmin is donating nearly 50,000 rolls of toilet paper to one fire station in each state as part of the Charmin Relief Project. The Company Officer of the Samoa Peninsula Fire District, Nick Bollier, saw an advertisement for the project online and applied the fire district for the project. The fire district received 960 rolls of toilet paper a week ago, which fire officials say is beneficial because of the six firefighters that live at the station full time and usually have to pay for toilet paper.
"With as tight as money is for our fire district right now, things like this, little expenses, end up going a long way. Especially when we get a supply this big of something. It's huge for us because it's less money that we're going to have to spend and more money we can put towards something else that helps out our community and our firefighters," said Company Officer Bollier.

Ms. Rendell was a prolific writer of intricately plotted mystery novels that combined psychological insight, social conscience and teeth-chattering terror.
As he reflected on the festering wounds deepened by race and grievance that have been on painful display in America's cities lately, President Obama on Monday found himself thinking about a young man he had just met named Malachi.
A few minutes before, in a closed-door round-table discussion at Lehman College in the Bronx, Mr. Obama had asked a group of black and Hispanic students from disadvantaged backgrounds what could be done to help them reach their goals. Several talked about counseling and guidance programs.
"Malachi, he just talked about — we should talk about love," Mr. Obama told a crowd afterward, drifting away from his prepared remarks. "Because Malachi and I shared the fact that our dad wasn't around and that sometimes we wondered why he wasn't around and what had happened. But really, that's what this comes down to is: Do we love these kids?"
Many presidents have governed during times of racial tension, but Mr. Obama is the first to see in the mirror a face that looks like those on the other side of history's ledger. While his first term was consumed with the economy, war and health care, his second keeps coming back to the societal divide that was not bridged by his election. A president who eschewed focusing on race now seems to have found his voice again as he thinks about how to use his remaining time in office and beyond.

Obama Speaks of a 'Sense of Unfairness'
Obama Speaks of a 'Sense of Unfairness'

At an event announcing the creation of a nonprofit focusing on young minority men, President Obama talked about the underlying reasons for recent protests in Baltimore and other cities.
In the aftermath of racially charged unrest in places like Baltimore, Ferguson, Mo., and New York, Mr. Obama came to the Bronx on Monday for the announcement of a new nonprofit organization that is being spun off from his White House initiative called My Brother's Keeper. Staked by more than $80 million in commitments from corporations and other donors, the new group, My Brother's Keeper Alliance, will in effect provide the nucleus for Mr. Obama's post-presidency, which will begin in January 2017.
"This will remain a mission for me and for Michelle not just for the rest of my presidency but for the rest of my life," Mr. Obama said. "And the reason is simple," he added. Referring to some of the youths he had just met, he said: "We see ourselves in these young men. I grew up without a dad. I grew up lost sometimes and adrift, not having a sense of a clear path. The only difference between me and a lot of other young men in this neighborhood and all across the country is that I grew up in an environment that was a little more forgiving."
Organizers said the new alliance already had financial pledges from companies like American Express, Deloitte, Discovery Communications and News Corporation. The money will be used to help companies address obstacles facing young black and Hispanic men, provide grants to programs for disadvantaged youths, and help communities aid their populations.
Joe Echevarria, a former chief executive of Deloitte, the accounting and consulting firm, will lead the alliance, and among those on its leadership team or advisory group are executives at PepsiCo, News Corporation, Sprint, BET and Prudential Group Insurance; former Secretary of State Colin L. Powell; Senator Cory Booker, Democrat of New Jersey; former Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr.; the music star John Legend; the retired athletes Alonzo Mourning, Jerome Bettis and Shaquille O'Neal; and the mayors of Indianapolis, Sacramento and Philadelphia.
The alliance, while nominally independent of the White House, may face some of the same questions confronting former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton as she begins another presidential campaign. Some of those donating to the alliance may have interests in government action, and skeptics may wonder whether they are trying to curry favor with the president by contributing.
"The Obama administration will have no role in deciding how donations are screened and what criteria they'll set at the alliance for donor policies, because it's an entirely separate entity," Josh Earnest, the White House press secretary, told reporters on Air Force One en route to New York. But he added, "I'm confident that the members of the board are well aware of the president's commitment to transparency."
The alliance was in the works before the disturbances last week after the death of Freddie Gray, the black man who suffered fatal injuries while in police custody in Baltimore, but it reflected the evolution of Mr. Obama's presidency. For him, in a way, it is coming back to issues that animated him as a young community organizer and politician. It was his own struggle with race and identity, captured in his youthful memoir, "Dreams From My Father," that stood him apart from other presidential aspirants.
But that was a side of him that he kept largely to himself through the first years of his presidency while he focused on other priorities like turning the economy around, expanding government-subsidized health care and avoiding electoral land mines en route to re-election.
After securing a second term, Mr. Obama appeared more emboldened. Just a month after his 2013 inauguration, he talked passionately about opportunity and race with a group of teenage boys in Chicago, a moment aides point to as perhaps the first time he had spoken about these issues in such a personal, powerful way as president. A few months later, he publicly lamented the death of Trayvon Martin, a black Florida teenager, saying that "could have been me 35 years ago."

That case, along with public ruptures of anger over police shootings in Ferguson and elsewhere, have pushed the issue of race and law enforcement onto the public agenda. Aides said they imagined that with his presidency in its final stages, Mr. Obama might be thinking more about what comes next and causes he can advance as a private citizen.
That is not to say that his public discussion of these issues has been universally welcomed. Some conservatives said he had made matters worse by seeming in their view to blame police officers in some of the disputed cases.
"President Obama, when he was elected, could have been a unifying leader," Senator Ted Cruz of Texas, a Republican candidate for president, said at a forum last week. "He has made decisions that I think have inflamed racial tensions."
On the other side of the ideological spectrum, some liberal African-American activists have complained that Mr. Obama has not done enough to help downtrodden communities. While he is speaking out more, these critics argue, he has hardly used the power of the presidency to make the sort of radical change they say is necessary.
The line Mr. Obama has tried to straddle has been a serrated one. He condemns police brutality as he defends most officers as honorable. He condemns "criminals and thugs" who looted in Baltimore while expressing empathy with those trapped in a cycle of poverty and hopelessness.
In the Bronx on Monday, Mr. Obama bemoaned the death of Brian Moore, a plainclothes New York police officer who had died earlier in the day after being shot in the head Saturday on a Queens street. Most police officers are "good and honest and fair and care deeply about their communities," even as they put their lives on the line, Mr. Obama said.
"Which is why in addressing the issues in Baltimore or Ferguson or New York, the point I made was that if we're just looking at policing, we're looking at it too narrowly," he added. "If we ask the police to simply contain and control problems that we ourselves have been unwilling to invest and solve, that's not fair to the communities, it's not fair to the police."
Moreover, if society writes off some people, he said, "that's not the kind of country I want to live in; that's not what America is about."
His message to young men like Malachi Hernandez, who attends Boston Latin Academy in Massachusetts, is not to give up.
"I want you to know you matter," he said. "You matter to us."

Durban - Two high-level task teams have been appointed by KwaZulu-Natal premier Senzo Mchunu to investigate the seemingly souring relationship between blacks and Indians in the province.
The first team – a three-man team led by Transport MEC Willies Mchunu – would look into the claims made by pressure group Mazibuye African Forum.
The group has hogged the headlines recently owing to its radical anti-Indian comments. Members of the group have been advocating for Indians to lose their BEE status while also claiming Indian business owners are responsible for the exploitation of black workers.
Mchunu said the decision to form a team had been taken at a meeting of the provincial executive ysterday and that MECs for human settlements and health, Ravi Pillay and Sibongiseni Dhlomo were also part of the team.
The team's work would be to engage Mazibuye and those who had been at the receiving end of their verbal attacks.
But Mchunu warned that any diatribe against Indians would not be tolerated.
"I do not believe that all of a sudden Indians are super-exploiters. Let's discuss exploitation without targeting."
He said any of the issues raised could be debated without resorting to threats and violence.
A second team – comprising Finance MEC Ina Cronje and Economic Development MEC Mike Mabuyakhulu – had also been appointed to look into the issue of tenders. This comes after concerns were raised that Indians had received the lion's share of tenders awarded by government in the province.
Mchunu said this team would analyse tenders awarded since 2004 so that it could engage those who had been making these allegations.
Both teams were expected to start work next week and report to the provincial executive (provincial cabinet) in two weeks' time.
Zweli Mnisi, the founding member of Mazibuye African Forum, did not understand "why the government has to investigate something so glaring? Even past ANC leaders have raised the issue we are raising now, these issues have been there before. I don't see any reason why we should be surprised.
"Yes, I can agree that there are black people who might be exploiting their workers, but the truth is that blacks generally are not employers and therefore it is not rife, as it is with Indian bosses."
He said his organisation welcomed the intervention, but warned that this in no way meant he and fellow Mazibuye members would tone down their anti-Indian rhetoric.
"The government has its own programmes and we have our own," he said.
Ashin Singh, of the South African Minority Rights Equality Movement (Samrem), said he believed any dialogue was good as it could help expose the dishonesty and racism on the part of Mazibuye.
Singh dismissed as absolute rubbish the claims that Indians had benefited the most from tenders and that they owned the lion's share of agricultural land in KwaZulu-Natal.
"Most of the Indian business people are small traders; Indians have been trading since they arrived here from India in 1860," Singh said.
Thobekani Mkhize, pres-ident of Imbumba Economic Empowerment Group, welcomed the interventions by the government, but said urgent action was needed.
He said his organisation did not want to racialise the issue of empowerment.
"All we are saying is that those who are educated should look at the demographics and at who is getting the biggest (slice of the tender pie)."

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 23/11/2010 (2459 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
OTTAWA -- Manitoba cancer specialist Dr. Morel Rubinger would love to be able to tell a cancer patient who needs a stem-cell transplant that he has a very good chance of finding a donor.
Rubinger told the House of Commons health committee Tuesday he can't do that because Canada doesn't have a national cord-blood bank.
Such a bank, which stores stem-cell samples retrieved from umbilical cords, would do wonders in improving the chances of survival for patients with blood diseases such as leukemia.
The cells are fast becoming the preferred source for unrelated stem-cell transplants because the tissue match to the receiving patient doesn't have to be as exact, and patients often recover faster and face fewer complications.
Cord-blood banks also better represent the ethnic diversity of a nation, so patients are far more likely to find a compatible match from a donor who represents their ethnic background.
Canadian Blood Services has a bank of donated stem cells in its One Match program, which can be used for unrelated stem-cell donations. Canada can also draw from an international supply of 14 million potential donors. But Canada is one of the only G20 nations without a national cord-blood bank.
In 2007, provincial health ministers asked Canadian Blood Services to develop a plan for a national cord-blood bank. The provinces approved that plan last year.
CBS head Graham Sher said it would cost about $48 million over several years to establish a cord-blood bank with the minimum required 20,000 donated units. It would mainly use existing CBS infrastructure, with the donations collected at hospitals across the country stored in two separate labs.
Héma-Quebec, the CBS counterpart in Quebec, began collecting cord blood in 2004 and has spent $20 million since then collecting 5,000 units. It is the only Health Canada-approved public cord-blood bank in Canada.
The Alberta cord-blood bank is slightly older, but has yet to be inspected by Health Canada. There are also 10 private cord-blood banks in Canada that collect and store cord blood for a fee. It is usually kept for the exclusive use of individual families.
Manitoba Health Minister Theresa Oswald said Tuesday the first annual contribution from Manitoba would be about $250,000. "It's not something that would be out of reach for us."
She said deputy health ministers will meet with CBS officials next month to "drill down" on some of the budget issues.
Oswald noted the long-term impact may be cost-neutral to the provinces, in part because the cost of importing cord-blood donations from outside the country is so significant.
Dr. Donna Wall, director of the Manitoba Blood and Marrow Transplant Program, said one unit of imported cord blood costs between $20,000 and $42,000, depending on the source. Some adult patients need two units.
In 2008, among 462 stem-cell transplants done in Canada, 179 were unrelated donors, including cord blood.

BOSTON (May. 28)
The Jewish Big Brothers Association of Boston is marking its 50th anniversary with an expansion of its services for the first time to the black community with referrals for black children being received and assignments to help them underway. Another innovation, according to president Arthur I. Zich, is an experimental Little Sister program in which coeds from local colleges serve as companions to girls in homes where there is a Big Brother-Little Brother relationship in effect.
The JBBA, a constituent of the Combined Jewish Philanthropies of Boston, has provided service during the past year to an average of 120 boys each month and has 135 volunteer Big Brothers, either as active participants or in the process of evaluation for assignments. Its principal function continues to be providing volunteer Big Brothers for fatherless boys. It also has a court service as an adjunct to its main function. The program includes not only counseling services to the fatherless boys and his mother but also discussion groups for mothers, as well as psychological testing and psychiatric consultation where the need is indicated. The agency also provides financial help for the Little Brothers seeking to advance their education.

The launch of the fourth book in the 'After Christendom' series took place in Birmingham on 8 July 2008.
The event, chaired by Dave Wiles of Frontier Youth Trust, was sold out and drew youth workers, training officers, church leaders and others from around the country.
Stuart Murray Williams introduced the concept and significance of the post-Christendom perspective that undergirds the series, before Nigel and Jo Pimlott, the authors, presented some of the key elements of the new book.
An extract from the book can be found on this website. The book itself is available from Christian bookshops or from Metanoia Book Service at www.metanoiabooks.org.uk

text: First half gross profit was $7.0 million, up $4.7 million compared with the last year's first half of $2.3 million. Gross profit as a percentage of sales improved to 40.9% in the first half of 2013, a 930 basis point improvement over 31.6% in last year's first half. SG&A expense for the first six months of 2013 was $7.5 million, up $1.6 million from the prior-year period. R&D expense was $2.1 million in the first half of 2013, compared with $0.8 million in the first half of 2012, reflecting the Company's investments in growth.Operating loss for the first half of 2013 was $2.6 million, improved from a loss of $4.4 million during the comparable prior-year period. Net loss attributable to ExOne was $3.0 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, for the first half of 2013 compared with $5.1 million for the first half of 2012. Strategy and Outlook Mr. S. Kent Rockwell, Chairman and CEO, noted, "We believe our results continue to demonstrate the effective execution of our growth strategies. We are increasing machine sales, expanding our PSC network and building our material and binders portfolio. We believe ExOne remains distinctively positioned as a leading industrial provider of 3D printing machines and printed products, and we expect demand to continue to increase." The Company anticipates that its 2013 revenue will be at the lower end of its previous guidance of $48 million to $52 million. The Company's expectations are based on no additional micromachine (laser drilling machine) sales in 2013 and timing of year-end shipments. Further, the weakening of the Japanese yen relative to the U.S. dollar has impacted full year revenue expectations. ExOne anticipates that its 2013 gross margin will be at the higher end of its previous guidance of 42% to 46%. Lastly, ExOne expects 2013 operating expenses to be at the upper end of its previous guidance of $18 million to $21 million.

Watch: Proenza Schouler x Second Life
CGI until you die!
Proenza Schouler could have shot a regular clip featuring regular human models wearing their new season product. This is 2012, though, and we are talking about Proenza — why bother with the tired concepts of yesteryear?
Instead, this 'Desert Tide' video sees four avatars from virtual world Second Life dressed in digitised looks from the FW12 runway. Instead of strutting about the place and striking carefully practiced poses, they carry out interpretive dance to Blank Banshee's 'Cyber Zodiac'. Apparently, dolphins are an imperative addition to video clips of late (as we learnt from Azealia Banks), particularly if you want them trending on Tumblr (everybody wants this). Creative direction came care of Kate McCollough (the sister of Jack, who is one half of the label) who worked alongside Second Life for these cyber fashion results.
This bizarre affair begs questions like, "What does this all mean?" and "What is fashion?" and "What even is the internet?" We don't know the answers to these questions, but this is probably our favourite fashion film since Kenzo's stock photography dream team collab with DIS magazine.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 2/2/2011 (2393 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
THE newest player in Winnipeg's hamburger game has the presidential seal of approval.
Five Guys Burgers and Fries, which is planning to open as many as eight locations in the city, starting with three this spring, has a fan in U.S. President Barack Obama.
Ben Hernandez, managing partner of the Virginia-based chain's eight-month-old Brandon outlet, said he's hoping leases will be completed shortly on Kenaston Boulevard near McGillivray Boulevard, Pembina Highway near the University of Manitoba and in Transcona.
"We'll begin construction within the next couple of months and our target date for opening is mid-to-late May," he said.
Obama made headlines shortly after moving into the White House with an impromptu stop at a Five Guys' location in Washington, where he bought lunch for his staff and some members of the media.
But he isn't the only celebrity who has acquired a taste for the high-end burgers. Professional golfer Phil Mickelson likes them so much he bought the franchise rights for Orange County, Calif.
Hernandez said Five Guys has often been compared to the Fuddruckers chain in Canada and In-N-Out Burger in the United States.
"We make gourmet burgers," he said.
Five Guys believes in keeping its menu simple and doing a few things very well rather than trying to be all things to all people. It sells burgers, veggie sandwiches and grilled cheese sandwiches and is awaiting approval for kosher hotdogs. It does not, for example, sell milk shakes.
A word of caution, however. If you order a regular burger, you better bring your appetite. "A 'little' hamburger is one pattie. If you say you want a bacon cheeseburger, you'll automatically get two patties," Hernandez said.
Scott Jocelyn, executive director of the Manitoba Restaurant and Foodservices Association, said it has been many years since a high-profile burger chain moved into the Winnipeg market.
"I can't remember the last time something like this happened in the burger world," he said.
Jocelyn said Five Guys will never be accused of skimping on portions.
"I had a hamburger in Brandon a little while ago and it was pretty tough to go back to work afterwards because I was so stuffed," he said.
Hernandez said the initial reception in Brandon was well beyond expectations and it continues to maintain a "very stable" following.
"It was amazing. For about three or four weeks, we had a lineup out the door," he said. Hernandez is a veteran of Manitoba's restaurant scene, having run Remington's Seafood and Steakhouse in Brandon for seven years. Previously, he worked for five years at Branigan's in Winnipeg.
Want facts with that?
Five Guys Burgers and Fries was started by Jerry Murrell in Arlington, Va., in 1986. He and his wife, Janie, have five sons, all of whom are involved with the business.
With 15 free toppings, there are more than 250,000 ways to order a burger there.
There are no freezers at Five Guys, just coolers.
Customers can enjoy free peanuts while waiting for their food.
Five Guys has more than 720 locations in the U.S. and Canada.

Hitting back comments made by Sting who calls his reality singing contests 'a preposterous show', Simon Cowell says the singer is actually not allowing anyone who has a chance to do the competition.
Simon Cowell has hit back at "idiot" Sting for dismissing the music mogul's reality singing contests as "televised karaoke". The former The Police's frontman blasted Cowell in 2009, claiming the talent spotter was exploiting talentless wannabes, who are then "humiliated" in a bid to boost television ratings on shows like "American Idol" and "The X Factor".
Sting said, " 'The X Factor' is a preposterous show and you have judges who have no recognizable talent apart from self-promotion, advising them (contestants) what to wear and how to look. It is appalling." Cowell didn't respond straight away but now he's taking aim at Sting, slamming the star for begrudging anybody else a chance to become a star.
In a new interview with British broadcaster Piers Morgan, who is a judge on Cowell's "America's Got Talent" show, he says, "First of all, anybody who at the age of 60 calls himself Sting is an idiot. I find those kind of people ... who come from quite humble beginnings and they're (now) living in these stately homes, professing to know everything about everything in the world, and what the contestants may or may not feel."
"They can say that because they've got everything they want in their lives, but what they're really saying is anybody else who needs a shot shouldn't be allowed to do it."

Mexico's President Tours Northwest U.S., Urges Immigration Reform
[Sorry, the video for this story has expired, but you can still read the transcript below. ]
JIM LEHRER: From Yakima, Washington, we have a report from NewsHour correspondent Lee Hochberg of Oregon Public Broadcasting.
LEE HOCHBERG, NewsHour Correspondent: Never before has a Mexican president come to Washington State or to the small farming town of Yakima in the state's agricultural area.
But with the national immigration battle coming to a boil, Mexican President Vicente Fox expanded his trade mission to Seattle Wednesday to include a speech to anxious and thrilled, mostly Latino, farm workers, 150 miles away at a Yakima apple orchard.
Fox speaks with migrants
The president greeted his audience, as the U.S. Senate headed toward yesterday's passage of its immigration bill.
VICENTE FOX, President of Mexico: (speaking in Spanish)
Addressing the audience in Spanish, President Fox, who previously has called the federal proposal for a 370-mile fence on the Mexican border "shameful" and "stupid," said he supported the Senate's guest-worker plan. It would require the United States' 12 million illegal immigrants exit the country and apply for re-entry.
VICENTE FOX: We have to match the employers with those who want to work. This is a well-informed formula.
LEE HOCHBERG: Aaron Ruiz was happy with what he heard.
AARON RUIZ, Immigrant: What I really like is that he worries about people here. He knows how the people work, how the people suffer, how the people risk their lives on the border to get a better chance for their families.
Provoking protests
LEE HOCHBERG: Although 8,000 people in Yakima, a town of 70,000, recently turned out to push for legalization of undocumented workers, the area is split on the issue. Yakima and the valley surrounding it have long attracted migrant workers, both legal and illegal.
But in the last two decades, the percentage of Latinos has doubled to 40 percent, and the area annually draws 25,000 additional migrant workers to harvest its crops. That growth disturbs some who turned out to protest President Fox's visit.
BOB BAKER, Anti-Fox Protestor: He needs to clean up his own act before he comes into our country and tells us how to do our legislation.
PROTESTOR: That's right, that's right, yes.
LEE HOCHBERG: Bob Baker is part of a group sponsoring a ballot initiative that would ban public aid for illegal immigrants in Washington State.
BOB BAKER: And it's not fair to the rest of us taxpayers, because we're paying for all these services that they're getting that they shouldn't be.
LEE HOCHBERG: Ruth Drolinger says her children's schools are being devastated by Mexican immigrants.
RUTH DROLINGER, Anti-Fox Protestor: We've got schools that have 80 percent of the school population are Spanish-speaking only. And, basically, our kids', their education is compromised. We don't want their culture; we don't want their language; we're Americans.
A mix reception
LEE HOCHBERG: President Fox told his audience that he does not support illegal immigration. He said Mexico must promote economic independence so people won't need to leave.
VICENTE FOX: We are working hard to generate employment in Mexico. Believe me: It's the number-one priority of my government.
LEE HOCHBERG: But the chairman of the Yakima County Republican Party, John Tierney, argued President Fox has failed to eliminate corruption or to reform Mexico's economy.
JOHN TIERNEY, Chair, Yakima County Republican Party: What Mexico really needs to do is do things that are going to improve the economy of Mexico so that the jobs are in Mexico and their citizens aren't going to want to leave. If they can get a job in Mexico to make the kind of money they make here, they aren't going to come here.
LEE HOCHBERG: But if they don't come, that would worry Yakima Valley farmer Jim Doornink, who depends on Latinos to pick his cherry crop.
JIM DOORNINK, Farmer: We're in competition with the world. And maybe the choice is we don't do agriculture here anymore, but I don't think that's a good choice.
LEE HOCHBERG: Doornink estimates 60 percent of the more than 200 workers who pick his cherries, peaches, apricots and apples are in Yakima illegally, despite the documentation they've shown him.
JIM DOORNINK: And those people, you know, pick my crops. And so if they're not here, I need to have another mechanism to have people come pick my crops. It doesn't seem to be a job that a part of our society wants to do.
Fox calls for more work in Mexico
LEE HOCHBERG: After his appearance in Yakima, President Fox met with business leaders in Seattle. The president repeated his pledge to create more jobs, so fewer Mexicans need to journey to the U.S.
He had another promise for Latinos at the Sea Mar Community Health Center in Seattle, which serves many Mexican illegals. He told them they could return to Mexico and receive full health care through a new plan his administration enacted.
But Jesus Bustos, who came to the U.S. in 1986 and won't say whether he's legal, said the health plan isn't enough to get him home.
JESUS BUSTOS, Immigrant: No, no, that wouldn't be...
LEE HOCHBERG: Why?
INTERPRETER: Por que dices?
JESUS BUSTOS: (speaking in Spanish)
INTERPRETER: He says that medical insurance is not going to remove his hunger or, basically, feed his family.
LEE HOCHBERG: President Fox wrapped up his American tour today in California.

Traditional consoles aren't the only way to play video games in your living room anymore. At CES 2014, Valve, the company behind the popular PC gaming service, Steam, announced 13 living-room optimized Steam Machines.
Basically, these are miniature PCs that allow you to play Steam's library of games on your TV using a more traditional game controller. Valve doesn't seem to be too enthusiastic about getting into the unfamiliar territory of the hardware business, so Steam Machines will be produced by third-party developers and will vary in specs. That variance in specs will consequently cause a wide range in prices, from $500 to $6,000, depending on what you're looking for.
This means you could potentially get a gaming device in your living room that is more powerful than the Microsoft Xbox One or the Sony PlayStation 4 and has access to some of the most popular games available.
Unlike traditional gaming consoles, the Steam Machines can be freely modified and upgraded. The introduction of these devices into the living-room space certainly helps Valve compete with Sony and Microsoft. But it remains to be seen whether or not these machines will sell enough to put a dent in the big console makers' market share.

MP4\H.264 Video Editor
Hi Guys,
I am looking for a video editor that handles mp4\h.264 files.
I just need to remove commercials from some files so nothing really complicated.
I have always used Avidemux for the task but since my online PVR switched from divx to mp4 I cannot use it any longer since it can't handle such files.
The output files are out of synch and it is something that will be fixed probably in their major next release.
Any suggestions both freeware and commercial?
Many thanks

Have you tried iWisoft Free Video Converter? Download page here.
The developer claims that this freeware program will "Crop, Clip, Split, Merge video and audio files."
It works for me with .mp4.

Hi Bob,
I have tried iWisoft Free Video Converter and unfortunately it won't do for my needs.
1) First of all I always hate software that starts your browser for whatever reason.
This software goes one step further and connects to it's own page everytime I start it to check for updates (something that can be easily done without starting a browser).
2)The editing part of the software is very very basic with no easy way to get the exact frame.
For example there is a next frame button but not a previous one whoch means if you miss the right frame you have to go back and start again.
Thanks for your suggestion anyway, much appreciated.
Anyone has any more software to suggest please?
Thank you

Busted my man cheating on me online and now he is completely trashing me to this other girl...saying I'm a drug addict and that I'm crazy! He denied even knowing me at first! So, I bust him cheating and lying to me and he goes and turns it around and makes me look like the bad one? I'm so mad, hurt and sad all at the same time. What gives? How can he go from "loving me" one week to saying that I'm this bad person?
Most Helpful Guy
I would never do my girlfriend that way, even tho we aren't together anymore. you call him your boyfriend cause you still love him, I'm sorry he isn't acting right, sometimes when people are wrong and know it they turn it around as a copout or a means to get around it. What he needs to do is at least be nice to you and treat you awesome since your nice enough to try and forgive him. he shouldn't trash your name tho, I can tell your sensitive cause I am, and I always get treated sh*tty. I always try to be just and fair in all my actions and communications with my partner, and try to talk over stuff with them. you know your not the bad one and so does he. oh yeah, he knows, don't even begin to buy that act. especially if you have been a good lover to him and nice too,so you know, you only deserve being treated fair, nice, and right. good luck with the script flippn dude.00|00|0

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to analyse the publications of, and the citations to, the current staff of 19 departments of computer science in Malaysian universities, and to compare these bibliometric data with expert peer reviews of Malaysian research performance. Design/methodology/approach: This paper searches citation of the Scopus and Web of Science databases. Findings: Both publication and citation rates are low, although this is at least in part due to some Malaysian universities having only a teaching function. More of the departments' publications were identified in Scopus than in Web of Science, but both databases were needed for comprehensive coverage. Statistically significant relationships were observed between the departments' publication and citation counts and the rankings of the departments' parent universities in two evaluations of the research performance of Malaysian universities. Originality/value: This is the first comparison of bibliometric and peer-review data for Malaysia, and, more generally, for a country with a newly developed higher education system.

I don't know why it has taken me this long to see these Fit for Me commercials! I want to send a big kudos to Fruit of Loom and their recent commercials and ads. They feature women with curves! I've written about Fruit of the Loom's Fit for Me collection before, but had never seen these.
As you know, I'm a big fan of self-acceptance and self-confidence. And we know how much the media plays a role in what young women consider beautiful. Hopefully, other brands will follow and show everyone that beautiful comes in all sizes.
So, what do you think?
Do you love the commercials? Have you seen them? Or do you not care?
Watch them now.

It's not often a car maker has the opportunity to launch two landmark new vehicles on the same day, but that's what Jaguar Land Rover pulled off at this year's Paris Motor Show, writes Andy Goss, President, Jaguar Land Rover North America.
Just after 8am sharp on the first press day, the all-new 2013 Range Rover splashed majestically through a specially-built water channel onto the stage. It was followed minutes later by the reveal of the stunning all-new 2013 Jaguar F-TYPE.
I loved Jaguar's Design Director Ian Callum's introduction to the car. With journalists expecting a long, in-depth design presentation, Ian walked on stage and said in his inimitable way, "The F-TYPE is a car for now. It has its own character; its own time and its own place. I really don't have to say much else. This car speaks for itself."
Both of these vehicles speak for themselves. We can't wait to get them into North America. Our plan is for the Range Rover to go on sale this December, with the F-TYPE a little further away in late spring. Both will have a massive impact on our business.
Just on the news of an all-new Jaguar sports car, we've had more than 20,000 hand-raisers wanting to know more about the car; of these, 85 percent are new to the brand. We know this car will bring people into the showroom who have never previously considered a Jaguar.
With the new F-TYPE configurator and pricing announced - the two 3.0-liter V6 models will be priced at $69,000* and $81,000*, and the V8 model at $92,000* - we know that that interest in Jaguar's newest model is only going to increase.
The week before the Paris show, I was in the UK driving the 380-horsepower V6 and 495-hp V8 versions of the F-TYPE back to back with the latest Porsche 911 and our current XK. All I can say is our car delivers a truly fantastic driving experience. It is a pure, highly-focused sports car with sensational handling and agility.
I must say that I felt an immense amount of pride watching the all-new Range Rover take the Paris stage. Everyone in the shoulder-to-shoulder crowd around me seemed to exhale a collective "wow" as it waded through the water to take center stage. I kept thinking if they're impressed now; just wait until they drive it!
We've already gauged customer reaction when we unveiled it to some of our U.S. owners and prospects a couple of weeks back at the Stone Mansion in Alpine, N.J., and a few days ago at an event at the Schweppe Estate in Lake Forest, IL.
There are 100,000 people out there who have bought an existing Range Rover, and I think this all-new version, with its lightweight aluminum body and even greater focus on quality, craftsmanship and luxury, will give people permission to buy another. I know our biggest challenge is going to be meeting the demand.
What was so special for me was seeing the new Range Rover and Jaguar F-TYPE alongside each other on our Paris show stand. Two ground-breaking vehicles showcasing the benefits of our advanced lightweight aluminum construction and the sheer brilliance of our design teams.
The next major milestone for the company will be to bring these two vehicles to the United States for their auto show debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show in late November. It's sure to be a truly modern British Invasion!

Carnival Cruise Lines has agreed to keep at least two ships sailing out of the The Port of New Orleans year-round through 2019.
The new agreement supersedes a 2013 three-year extension and offers three one-year options that could guarantee Carnival homeports in the city through 2022. The company would keep sailing at least two ships of equal or greater size than the Dream Class and Fantasy Class ships that are operating from the port.
The Port's Erato Street Cruise Terminal was recently renovated to accommodate the 3,646-passenger Carnival Dream, which arrived in April and sails seven-day eastern and western Caribbean cruises. The Carnival Elation sails four- and five-day cruises to Mexico.
Together, the two ships carry more than 400,000 passengers annually from New Orleans — the most of any cruise line.
A study by Cruise Lines International Association found that spending by Carnival and other cruise operators in Louisiana tops $399 million, generating 7,548 jobs and $294 million in personal income. CLIA also ranked New Orleans the sixth-largest cruise port in the U.S.
The Port of New Orleans is slated to lose its second-largest cruise ship next year, when Royal Caribbean pulls its 2,476-passenger Serenade of the Seas ship out of the city in April 2015. The move leaves the port with three cruise ships: the two Carnival ships and Norwegian Cruise Line's Dawn, a 2,340-passenger ship that offers seasonal, weeklong trips to the Caribbean.
The new agreement with Carnival went into effect July 1.
"This is a clear demonstration of Carnival's belief in New Orleans as one of its top home ports," said port President and CEO Gary LaGrange. "We look forward to helping Carnival grow its business in the Crescent City for the long term."
"Our guests — particularly those from Louisiana — love cruising from the Crescent City, and we look forward to continuing our New Orleans program for many years to come," said Gerry Cahill, president and CEO of Carnival Cruise Lines.
"Taking a cruise from New Orleans means a vacation both here and abroad," said Mark Romig, president and CEO of New Orleans Tourism Marketing Corp., the city's official leisure travel promotion agency.

New series based on Spartacus' history, 'Spartacus', will be aired on Starz in 2009, promising an R-rated storytelling with the latest digital filmmaking techniques.
"Spartacus" will come into television in 2009 with Sam Raimi as its executive producer. Starz has announced that Raimi will be responsible to lead the series along with Rob Tapert and Joshua Donen for the production in early 2009.
Raimi will also collaborate with "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" veteran, Steven S. DeKnight, who serves as a showrunner on the series. The new series has been ordered for 13 episodes which will be premiered in 2009. "Spartacus" TV series will focus on the historical events and life of Spartacus, a slave who became the leader of the slave uprising against the Roman Republic in 73 BC.
Raimi says about the project, "It is going to be very exciting to take one of the most beloved and inspiring characters of all time, re-invent and bring them to life for a whole new generation of TV viewers." Tapert also shows his optimism, saying "By utilizing the latest digital filmmaking techniques to create the look of this series, we'll be able to tell the story in a way never before seen with production values far beyond what even the most ambitious TV series can offer."
Starz's executive vice president for programming, Stephan Shelanski, promises to bring the series into a new set of intense action and vivid story that is rich in character, action, sex, and combat. As he says in a statement, "When 'Spartacus' debuts in the summer of 2009, it will give our subscribers a show unlike anything currently on TV: a fresh, high-energy action series with nothing held back."

Dirt, Order, and HGH
Posted by Paul Harvey
4 comments
"Dirt offends against order," wrote the recently deceased anthropologist Mary Douglas in Purity and Danger. "Eliminating it is not a negative movement, but a positive effort to organize the environment." Douglas's complex book makes a simple point. For the sake of social order, societies enact various means to purge their symbolic pollutants.
With this in mind, consider the current swirl of attention surrounding the "dirty athlete," the great American Pigpen guilty of using performance enhancing drugs. Recently, leaders in Washington performed a civic cleansing ritual known as the congressional hearing. Bud Selig, the commissioner of Major League Baseball, was among those called before the committee. Blame and shame were in no short supply. In his opening remarks, the committee chairman remarked, "everyone in baseball is responsible: the owners, the commissioner, the union and the players." The hearing went on to confirm what we already know, that players are taking performance enhancers and have been for at least a decade. The political spectacle was ultimately a demand (plea?) to MLB to bleach this stain. The question of "how" remains. Blood tests, suspensions, and heavy fines may work. One sportswriter called for Selig's resignation, labeling him "the guy who brought us better baseball through chemistry" and made the sport "a toxic waste dump" filled with "polluted record books." The commissioner, the author concluded, could not be trusted to "clean up" baseball.
The problem of performance enhancers extends far beyond baseball, into practically every sport to include—oddly enough—professional golf. If sport is a reflection of society, what does this say about contemporary America? Obviously, as the congressional hearing indicates, we take our games seriously. But this is nothing new in history. In his classic Homo Ludens, Johan Huizinga argued that the "play element" in any society provides inspiration for civilization, and is therefore anything but frivolous. "The player can abandon himself body and soul into the game, and the consciousness of its being 'merely' a game can be thrust into the background." He continued, noting that true play demands true purity, and cheating "spoils it altogether, because for us the essence of play is that the rules be kept."
In professional sports, the rules have clearly been broken (many times over). Like many, I'm upset with dirty athletes and blame them and the corrupt system they belong to. I also blame myself. No, I didn't inject players with HGH. But I love watching brutish batters bash a few dingers. And what a great story it makes when an aging pitcher rediscovers his 90-plus mile-per-hour fastball. Put simply: I want superhuman performances. But I also want virgin-like athletic purity. It seems I can't have them both. Perhaps I should take a step back and assess both why I love sports, and how I love it. Without checking the latter, the dirt will continue to fly.

If "true play demands true purity," then perhaps professional sports are not really about "true play," but true spectacle. The outcry over athletic steroid use seems quite muted. It's there in some circles, to be sure, but it's hardly the outrage that one would expect if sport really is a reflection of society and impurity in sport is therefore a blight on society that needs to be expunged.
Sports isn't the only place where the visual image of a muscular body is a constituent part of the spectacle of celebrity today. The New York Times reported just this week that hip-hop stars have also been implicated in the steroids investigation:
It may be that a Durkheimian model of social projection and reflection isn't up to the market forces of desire, spectacle, and competition that mark our commodified age of image and competition.

I think you're right about the bipolar desires for spectacle and purity. The latter seems to be overlooked. Out of sight, out of mind.
Interesting stuff about hip-hop. I had no idea. What's particularly disturbing to me are the stories of steriod use in teenage sports--high school, etc. I don't know if it's a "trickle down effect" from the pros, or just general distorted sense of body image.

The Make plugin apparently can't follow include directives in the make file. There does not appear to be any options pane for Make. I can't even force Make to run against a file that isn't named Makefile. While this plugin seems like a great idea, it seems to be far to limited in scope. I often have a top-level Makefile with no real targets. All the targets are in of the many "*.mak" files which are included. It seems the tool either needs to allow me to declare what file types I want it to process, or needs to be able to follow include directives. (Better yet, do both!)
OK, looking deeper, it doesn't even seem to work with a Makefile with no includes and real targets. All I get is a right-click menu with what looks like an empty list at the top and "Reload Targets" at the bottom. The two items in the Plugins -> Make menu also seem worthless unless I want to build the entire project from the top.

Programme overview
This programme develops your knowledge and understanding of interdisciplinary approaches to the study of law and legal phenomena. It provides a sound research training for students wishing to proceed to a PhD or a career in socio-legal research through the study of different research methodologies across the social sciences and law. You will pursue independent, in-depth study in socio-legal studies, engaging in lively debates in a thriving research culture across social sciences and law.
A range of units is offered, suitable for graduates from any discipline who have an interest in the way law works (or fails to work) in society. Methods of assessment may include essays, presentations and/or written examinations, depending on the optional subject(s) chosen, together with the dissertation.

Further information on funding for prospective UK, EU and international postgraduate students.
Programme structure
Core units
Three units in the School of Sociology, Politics and International Studies:
- Philosophy and Research Design in the Social Sciences
- Introduction to Qualitative Research Methods in the Social Sciences
- Introduction to Quantitative Research Methods in the Social Sciences
Two units in the Law School:
- Advanced Legal and Socio-legal Research Methods
- Social and Legal Theory
Optional units
You will take optional subjects up to a value of 30 credit points, chosen from across most of the Faculty of Social Sciences and Law and beyond. Units designed especially for the MSc offered by the School of Sociology, Politics and International Studies are usually worth 20 credit points each. Units in the Law School are taken along alongside LLM students, and are each worth 30 credit points.
The dissertation accounts for 60 credit points. It should build on the optional units and develop the approaches taken in the core units. You will be expected to demonstrate an ability to:
- frame a research question and use an appropriate methodology in response to that question;
- organise discussion and select material pertinent to the topic;
- show appropriate higher-level knowledge and understanding of the background context.
Entry requirements
An upper second class honours degree (or international equivalent), in law, social sciences, or another relevant discipline. A background in Law is not essential as training will be given during the programme. Recognised Prior Learning is currently not accepted. Previous or professional experience is not required.
See international equivalent qualifications on the International Office website.

|Admissions statement
|Read the programme admissions statement for important information on entry requirements, the application process and supporting documents required.
The MSc in Socio-Legal Studies offers useful preparation for a number of careers. The first of these is that of academic work, often after the completion of a doctoral degree. The emphasis on practical research training, on the ability to plan, research and write a sophisticated dissertation, and on the ability to think in broad theoretical terms about law in society, provides an ideal introduction to academic research.
The skills of research and writing, which are central to the programme, are ideal preparation for working for an NGO or other organisation working for legal or social change. A third possibility is working within government, again through the development of rigorous research training skills and the ability to engage in broader social understanding.
Finally, some students choose to enter the legal profession, carrying with them a broader understanding of the way law operates within society.

Re: Do we really need so many?
Had to laugh when I read the thread post up and what followed. Years ago, if I fell in, I'd sink like a rock I swear to God. Now? A fly box not much bigger than a pack of smokes in one pocket, two spools of leader material in another and a small string of 'tools' clipped to my shirt front by a set of 'hemostats' used as a hook remover. Strong preference they be used to remove the fly from them ... not me.
That all aside, the one thing that folks don't have on them is a good Police Whistle (mines on the end of that Hemo cord tool kit noted above). You have a problem, you're out of cell phone range (or its soaking wet and doesn't work) and in deep do-do.
No one
will ever hear you call for 'help.'
The sound of a whistle, that (and the Universal three blasts) can be heard one hell of a long way off. Even over the noise of a boat motor.
A good thing me thinks.
When wealth is lost, nothing is lost; when health is lost, something is lost; when character is lost, all is lost. - Billy Graham"

Chris Brown has teamed up with Bow Wow and Hurricane Chris to remix his track 'Picture Perfect' to be made the fourth single from 'Exclusive'.
Following Bow Wow's denial on feuding with fellow teen star, Chris Brown, it was reported by MTV News that Brown will release 'Picture Perfect' as the fourth single from his 'Exclusive' album.
In fact, Brown will release it in a remix that is done with Bow Wow and rapper Hurricane Chris. The song was originally featuring will.i.am who also acts as the co-producer. No confirmation yet on when the single will be released but it was reported that February 26 is the date.
Brown is touring in support of 'Exclusive' with Bow Wow. They were due to finish the tour in on January 13 but decided to extended the tour up to February 2. Bow Wow is then scheduled to jump on a tour with Omarion to promote their joint album, 'Face Off'. Bow Wow also revealed plans to include the track he did with Omarion and R. Kelly called 'Slam' in the reissue of the December 2007 album.
Bow Wow was rumored to have spit on Brown during a backstage confrontation stemming from a technical difficulty in a Dallas show. Bow Wow has since denied it saying, "Anybody who knows me or anybody who's been around me knows I'm not that kind of person."

Since ages, Bollywood stars have played a major role in broadening people's narrow mentality. A couple in love staying together before marriage was not accepted in the society till a few years ago. But now, its no more a taboo, thanks to our movie celebrities. Many popular Bollywood stars have been in live-in relationships and are pretty open talking about it. While some parted ways after a period of time, a few ended up tying the knot.
Here is a list of celebrities who were rumored to be in a live-in relationship:
Abhay Deol & Preeti Desai:
The former Miss Great Britain Preeti Desai moved in with the Dev D star in his Juhu flat and the duo have started staying together ever since then. The couple are very happy together. Abhay had even revealed on a popular TV chat show that he wasn't ready for marriage yet and that he would rather settle down in a live-in relationship with the actress. "I think marriage is a cultural thing, it's my opinion that nature doesn't tell someone to get married. I may or may not get married but I will settle down in a live-in." Abhay and Preeti met first time during the success bash of Dev D in February 2009.
Saif Ali Khan & Kareena Kapoor:
They are one of the most adorable couples in Bollywood. Marriage didn't really make much of a difference to Saif and Bebo's relationship as they were in a live-in relationship before they got married.. Saif and Kareena made it known to the world that they were staying together. In fact Bebo confessed in an interview too. She said, "I have been with Saif for five-and-a-half years, and we are perhaps one of the first stars of the industry to have a live-in relationship and be open about it. So, it was no big deal for us,"
John Abraham and Bipasha Basu:
They are no longer together but when they were, John and Bips made a HOT couple. They moved in together and while Bips considered John's family as hers, John was treated like a son in Bipasha's family. The couple were pretty open about them sharing one home. Bipasha had once said that she doesn't care about what the society thinks. She said, "As for society, it really doesn't matter. I feel we are a married couple without being married. I feel like I'm his wife but yet he's not my husband"
The couple began dating in late 2002 and parted ways in 2011.
Ranvir Shorey and Konkona Sen:
They are married now and also heading for a divorce. But during their dating phase, Ranvir and Konkona were living together. Back then, buzz was that the couple were heading for a break up and so to put rumors to rest, Ranvir made the announcement, proving not only is the relationship going strong but he and Koko have taken their relationship to the next level. Ranvir said, "My girlfriend stays with me at my apartment. We have been living in for quite some time now and my love life is just as fine."
Aamir Khan and Kiran Rao:
Aamir left his first wife Reena and kids and moved in with his current wife Kiran Rao. It was only when the rumour mill churned stories on Aamir and Kiran holidaying abroad, that the actor declared that he will marry Kiran Rao. Kiran on the other hand wasn't sure of settling down with Aamir. She said, "I wasn't sure until we started living together. But I was in love with him since late 2003. But the more time I began to spend with him, I realized that we connected on a more intrinsic level. His ideas matched mine even though I did not always agree with him. We have the same ethical, value system. That made me really comfortable."
Aamir Khan confessed, "I started getting serious about her when I asked her to move in. We lived together for a year and a half before getting married."

Manipur football
Imphal, Dec. 12: Peace and Humanity Library Youth Organisation defeated Zion Tlang Football Club 2-0 in the qualifying round of the 56th Sir Churachand Memorial Football Tournament at Mapal Kangjeibung today.
Zion made several forays into the Peace area but a lack of good strikers failed them in their attempts.
Since the start Zion were in an attacking mood. Both the goals of Peace and Humanity were scored from counter- attacks in the first half.
Y. Gopi scored the first goal in the 43rd minute and team-mate M. Johny scored the second in the stoppage time of the first half.
In the second half, Zion were able to prevent their opponents from increasing the tally but could not restore parity as they failed to convert the chances.
Despite having a good midfield, their strikers lacked penetration in the opponents danger zone.
Sub-junior football: District Sports Association, Kakching and District Sports Association, Churachandpur, were locked in a 2-2 draw in the 16th sub-junior boys football tournament at Mapal Kangjeibung today.
