The company, which until last year was close to collapse under the weight of heavy debts, said it made 133.9bn won ($113m; £68m) in the three months to September.
The previous year, the same period had produced a 616.8bn won loss.
Hynix said that chip prices rising at last had turned its performance around, with the back-to-school shopping spree in the US in particular producing an rise in sales of 27% over the previous year, and 20% on the three months to June.
And it predicted the end-of-year holiday boom would see things get even better.
The company also said its debts had narrowed slightly to 5.35 trillion won from 5.45 trillion won three months earlier.
The debts are the reason the firm is now 70% owned by its creditors.
The South Korean banks to which it owed tens of trillions of won arranged a debt-for-equity bailout in December 2002, following the collapse of a planned takeover by larger US rival Micron.
Despite the turnaround, there may still be trouble in store for Hynix.
Earlier this year, both the US and the European Union decided to apply extra tariffs on the company, accusing the South Korean government of unfairly subsidising the firm's business.

Venezuela leader vows city won't turn into a Benghazi
CARACAS — Venezuelan security forces and demonstrators faced off in streets blocked by burning barricades in several provincial cities on Thursday as protests escalated against President Nicolas Maduro's socialist government.
At least five people have died since the violence broke out last week, the most serious unrest since Maduro was narrowly elected in April 2013. There have been scores of injuries and arrests.
The protesters, mostly students, want Maduro to resign and blame his government for violent crime, high inflation, product shortages and alleged repression of opponents.
Thursday's most serious unrest was in the western Andean states of Tachira and Merida, which have been especially volatile since hardline opposition leaders called supporters onto the streets in early February demanding Maduro's departure.
In the city of San Cristobal, which some residents are describing as a "war zone," many businesses remained shut as students and police faced off again. The government says it is taking "special measures" to restore order in Tachira.
"This is not a militarization," Interior Minister Miguel Rodriguez Torres said on state TV from San Cristobal. "We are here to work for the great majority of people in Tachira. ... Before we have dialogue, we must have order."
Maduro said he will not let his rivals turn Tachira into "a Benghazi," referring to the violence-wracked Libyan city.
Wednesday was one of the worst bouts of violence the capital, Caracas, has experienced during nearly three weeks of unrest.
Around a square in the wealthier east of the city, security forces fired tear gas and bullets, chasing youths who hurled Molotov cocktails and blocked roads with burning piles of trash.
"I declare myself in civil disobedience," read one banner held up by demonstrators on a city road.
Caracas was much calmer during the day, though a few hundred opposition demonstrators gathered again at dusk in the same square, Plaza Altamira. Some businesses stayed closed in a further drag on the ailing economy.
The government said a funeral parade for deceased folk singer Simon Diaz, a beloved figure who died on Wednesday at age 85, was held up because of "violent groups" blocking roads.
Tensions have escalated since opposition leader Leopoldo Lopez, a 42-year-old Harvard-educated economist, turned himself in to troops this week. He is being held in Caracas' Ramo Verde military jail on charges of fomenting the violence.
"Change depends on every one of us. Don't give up!" Lopez's wife, Lilian Tintori, said on Twitter.
Local TV channels are providing almost no live coverage of the unrest, so Venezuelans are turning to social media to swap information and images, though falsified photos are circulating.

Her most enticing feature is the unique voicing control;
This dial allows you to access virtually any chorus sound you could desire! It changes the
delay time – it's on a pot so you've got an infinite number of chorus pedals in one box – from
super spanky sparkling clean to noisy, sea sick inducing, pitch bending wobble.
Delay time determines a big part of any chorus units tone/flavour/sound - short delay creates a very
pristine, airy chorus whereas longer delay time gives more 'wobble' and 'throb'. Unfortunately virtually
all devices available only have one fixed delay setting – or at most a choice of two.....
We've designed a circuit that lets you adjust the delay time via a potentiometer – from one extreme
to the other and everything in between. In it's most extreme settings the device will produce some
hiss – this would be expected within the last third of the voicing controls sweep.
Vibe/Chorus Switch; Choose between Chorus or Vibrato mode. When in vibrato Mode you can use the voicing
dial to choose from gentle, subtle pitch shifting through to wild semitone leaps. The voicing
control functions in vibe mode the same way it does in chorus mode – it shifts the delay time.
Nasty or Nice – you choose.

"We would strongly oppose the NFS bill as it would deprive the middle, lower middle class and poor people in getting foodgrain through the PDS (public distribution system)," state Food and Civil Supplies Minister Manik Dey said.
He said if the bill is passed, people belonging to above poverty line (APL) families would almost lose their right to get foodgrain and essentials through ration shops at subsidised rates.
"The election manifesto of the UPA (United Progressive Alliance) government had made it clear that below poverty line families would be getting rice at the rate of Rs.2 per kg but the NFS draft bill has proposed to provide maximum of 35 kg rice (7 kg per head) for a family at the rate of Rs.3 (per kg).
"But BPL families having more than five members, how will they survive with the 35 kg of rice? What would be the fate of APL families," the minister asked.
"After the enactment of the NFS Act in the present form, about 45 percent urban families and 25 percent rural households would not have ration cards," Dey said.
The minister also alleged that the Manmohan Singh-led UPA government has been trying to withdraw the PDS and encouraging black marketing of food items and essential commodities, which is leading to spiralling food prices.
The ruling Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M) has also announced to undertake a week-long protest from Nov 1 to demand overhauling of the draft bill.
Other provisions of the bill, one of the major focus points of the UPA government, include legal right to take home ration/meal to women, children, special groups including the destitute and homeless and disaster-affected people.
The UPA government is now seeking opinion of the state governments and all stakeholders about the proposed bill.

As you may know by now, I just got myself a white iPhone 4S last Monday.
Those of you who have iPhone 4's may not see the 4S as an improvement worthy of an upgrade, I know — I completely understand the knee-jerk reaction right there. After all, if it looks the same in the outside, there'd be nothing to blatantly brag about. For how else will you impress your Facebook friends or even the next guy at the grocery aisle that you have "the
latest and greatest most amazing iPhone yet" if they can't tell it's a 4S at first glance?
But if you're like me who came from a 3GS, a jump to the 4S is nothing short of satisfying. Sure, some may say all that it has over the iPhone 4 is the revolutionary virtual assistant called Siri. But I would beg to differ. There is so much more to the 4S.
So what do I like about the iPhone 4S?
Speed to me is a major consideration. Though I'm not exactly a speed typist on conventional keyboards, I do type (tap) faster on the iPhone mainly because of the freedom its autocorrect function provides me. The iPhone 4S, I've found is way faster and incredibly responsive in almost all aspects. Feeds, games, websites load faster. Practically everything you do is noticeably faster on the 4S. Whether its gaming, email, web surfing or tinkering with apps, the 4S won't leave you wanting for speed.
It's an eye-candy.
Photos, texts, and websites are rendered more beautifully on the 4S and the 8MP camera means you can really leave your digicams at home.
Siri: The Dealmaker
The iPhone 4S was officially launched here in the Philippines last December 16, 2011 but it's been around here for quite some time and even longer in the US, UK and elsewhere overseas. Siri — the virtual assistant that comes preinstalled in the iPhone 4S has been tested and reviewed innumerable times.
I think Siri is definitely the defining feature of the iPhone 4S. And while there's more to the 4S than Siri, I'd have to agree that it does make a significant difference especially because, for all the good reviews Siri got, it is officially still in beta which means Siri will inevitably get better. And nothing makes me happier than being an early adopter (okay, maybe there is something else). Experiencing technology firsthand as it evolves from obscurity to ubiquity is a most-satisfying experience for tech enthusiasts.
So since every 4S purchase comes with sleepless conversations with Siri, let me share some of mine (and others by my son).
Conversations with Siri
Let's start with the usual — fishing for compliments. :)
Getting to know you's
And then of course, the random questions:
So, apparently to "have a love life", one needs to have actual meetings with "Love".
But, as with everything that rely on technology, there are limitations.
Siri is very impressive as it is now but I hope it gets outside the "Apple box" in the future, communicating with third-party apps and even altering phone settings at will.
Until then, it's a little reassuring that the antisocial me will have somewhat sensible conversations with Siri whenever I'm alone. Though I'm a little disappointed that until I figure out how to put condiments inside my 4S, I still have to make my own sandwich.

Thoughts of Americans on Memorial Day center on the departed military veterans. Veterans on that day also have their thoughts on their years in the military.
What do veterans think about?
Probably, most of all, they think about their military buddies, both the ones who didn't come home and the ones who did. Close relationships are made in the service. You find out there are differences in people, but in many ways all are the same. If you were an enlisted man or woman, you are among the thousands, millions who were a number. But there are opportunities for advancement if one has leadership qualities, and is willing to take on huge responsibilities.
We have often said there is no other place other than the military where so much responsibility is given to a person at such a young age. Young noncommissioned enlisted men and women and officers carry huge loads, and are called on to make major decisions, often life and death ones. Another truism is that it is the young people who fight the wars, on land, the seas and in the air. They are out in front in facing the enemy. That's where major decision-making challenges them.
Many who serve now or did in the past were citizen soldiers, seamen and airmen and women. That is, they have and had no interest in making the military a career. Their interest is and was to serve their time and return to civilian life. Some of our World War II veterans were called back in for the Korean War and then decided to make the military a career. Some of those veterans served in the Vietnam War also. Three wars in their lifetime! That's an experience!
Many veterans think about their wartime experiences more as they get older. Coming back from wartime duties, and combat, most veterans don't talk much about their experiences. First of all, they would like to forget some of their experiences. Secondly, it is hard to relate to civilians what a combat situation is like, especially how it is to be under fire from the enemy. No veteran likes to talk about the killing, the wounding, the POW experiences, the loss of buddies. Those experiences forever linger in the minds of our veterans.
Some veterans, as they get older, wonder, did that really happen? It's still real today in their minds, but it seems like it was in another life.
Veterans do remember the good times as well as the bad times. There are good times. Solid friendships are made. After the shooting was over in Korea, we remember a former WW II Marine who had received a commission in the Army. It was a bull session at night with beer in hands. There was a lot of complaining about returning to a training schedule after the combat ended. Yes, they were glad the shooting stopped, but for those who had been in combat, returning to training was boring. The former Marine said, "You will remember the good times, like tonight." He was right.
Veterans remember the good sergeants and officers they served under. They also remember the poor ones. Veterans remember the outstanding leaders they served under and the inept ones. Veterans remember the leaders who they had great faith in due to their leadership qualities. Unfortunately, they also remember the ones who didn't have those qualities. They remember the "yellow" ones!
Veterans remember the brave officers and enlisted men who they served with — the type who didn't ask them to do something they wouldn't do. Leaders who lead by example are the ones who have a solid following. Leaders who command discipline but at the same time lead by example, are fair, are the ones in the good memories.
Combat veterans are never going to share all their memories. They come alive at this time of the year, but there is more silence than loud words.

Personal documents are usually required by the lenders as they help to determine the factors which may have a great impact on credit decision. However, no fax installment loans provided through the website of our company will release you from bothering paperwork that only wastes time.

As a result, you won't find it difficult to pay several small amounts instead of one large.

My car sounds like it pops when I accelerate. It is not running right. What is wrong with it?
You could have a bad fuel pump. I would recommend to check fuel pressure. Fuel injected cars are very fuel pressure sensitive. Fuel pressure is very important and must be within specifications! But if the pressure is low, it does not mean the pump is bad. A plugged fuel filter, a pinched line, and low voltage at the pump can contribute to low fuel pressure. Both must be checked before replacing the pump. You can get a fuel pressure gauge at a local auto parts store for cheap.
Good luck!

DESPITE the demands of the role, long hours and lengthy commute to Sydney from his Kiama Downs home, Malcolm Connellan enjoys getting up to go to work each morning.
''I'm a part of the team; I enjoy it because I really enjoy my job,'' he said.
He's been rewarded for that dedication with an Australian Fire Service Medal as part of the 2014 Queen's Birthday honours list.
The award is one of the highest honours an Australian firefighter can receive.
Mr Connellan, 54, has worked for Fire and Rescue NSW (FRNSW), formerly NSW Fire Brigades, for more than 30 years, during which time he has been involved in the development of several important projects, including the implementation of a new human resources payroll system and electronic rostering and timesheet systems for staff.
He has held the position of professional standards and conduct officer and assistant director human resources, and is currently the chief of staff, providing personal assistance and support to the FRNSW Commissioner.
He was also awarded the Unit Commendation for Meritorious Service in 1994. The father of three has a unique perspective on individuals being acknowledged via awards.
''I actually run the honours system for our organisation,'' he said.
''I often have people say, 'I'm only doing what other people would have done', and I never knew what that meant.
''Now I do.
''That's how I feel now; you don't do things for the honour or recognition, you do it because it's the right thing to do.
''I'm doing my job, not doing it for the recognition.''
Although previously working as station officer at Wollongong for a six-year period, subsequent promotions have taken him back to Sydney.
''I'm quite proud of when I was station officer at Wollongong, around 2002/03 we formed a partnership with Illawarra Area Health and the Lions Clubs in the area,'' he said.
''We installed more than a thousand smoke alarms in elderly and disabled residents' homes in the Wollongong, Shellharbour and Kiama local government areas.''
Despite working long hours and being an on-call emergency incident commander outside normal working hours, Mr Connellan has been heavily involved in community activities, such as being a member of the Minnamurra Lions Club. He has previously served as the club's president and vice-president.
''I like the camaraderie of a group of people from different backgrounds, who get together to help their community, and build their community,'' he said.
''It's rewarding work.
''The best thing we ever did was move down here.''
Mr Connellan is one of five FRNSW recipients of the award announced during the Queen's Birthday honours.
FRNSW Commissioner Greg Mullins congratulated him on his award.
"He held the position of professional standards and conduct officer where his ethical and empathetic nature and leadership skills were critical in providing assistance to staff members and their families during times of distress and discomfort.
''Chief Superintendent Connellan has been able to utilise his dynamic leadership and management capabilities to influence, mentor and support numerous people both within and outside FRNSW.
''This included providing support to the South Australian Metropolitan Fire Service earlier this year during the state's major bushfires.
''He is well-respected among firefighters and is a mentor to those who work with him.''
Mr Connellan will be presented with his AFSM at a ceremony later in the year.

"The Invisible War"
U.S. Documentary
"The Invisible War"
U.S. Documentary
***1/2 (three and a half stars)
With the controversies over U.S. use of torture and indefinite imprisonment winding down along with U.S. invovlment in Iraq and Afghanistan, Kirby Dick's powerful and troubling "The Invisible War" probes another scandal the military appears reluctant to deal with: rape of service members by their comrades.
The statistics on the military's rape epidemic, alone, are disturbing: One in five service members, mostly women, have been sexually assaulted, bringing the total to 500,000 in the modern militarytwice the rate for the civilian population. Only 21 percent of reported cases (and only a tiny percentage are reported) are ever prosecuted. Then, because of the commanders' control of the military justice system, the prosecutions seldom result in jail time.
Because of the military's closed culture, rape expert describes it as "a prime, target-rich environment for a sexual predator." And because so few rapists are prosecuted or serve jail time, investigators speculate that emboldened predators serial rape with impunity. "Why would they stop?" asks a sexual crimes investigator.
In "Invisible War," Dick brings the statistics home through agonizing interviews with former members of the Navy, Marines, Army and Coast Guard who were raped, then further victimized by the military justice system.
Their stories follow a sad pattern: Commanding officers, who control the investigations and prosecutions, question the victim's motives and, in some cases, order investigations of the victims for adultery and making false charges. In almost all cases, the victims' military careers are finished.
"These are women that, even now, would rather be in the military," Dick said in an interview. "This was their dream to serve their country."
The victims spoke of patriotism or family military history as their motivation for enlisting, most loved their jobs. Dick emphasizes the women would only participate in the documentary on condition it wouldn't be an anti-military film.
"This is one of the most pro-military films to come out of Sundance," Dick says. "All of our subjects were very idealistic and proud to have served."
Still, you won't see "Invisible War" being used for recruiting purposes anytime soon.

Aaron Gray's big night wasn't enough to rescue the flu-ravaged Toronto Raptors.
The centre had a career-high 22 points Monday, but the Golden State Warriors pulled away late for a 114-102 victory over Toronto.
"They're a much improved team, we feel like we can compete with teams like that, but tonight we just couldn't stop anybody," said Gray, who also had 10 rebounds. "They scored way too many points, that's not the identity we want to have.
"It's hard to beat teams when they score 114."
Raptors coach Dwane Casey said after the game that a bug is going through the team's locker-room. Landry Fields left the game at half-time because of flu-like symptoms after collecting just two points in 13 minutes.
"We're a worn down team right now with the flu, injuries and all that stuff coming through," said Casey, whose team has lost seven of nine. "Again there are no excuses. This is the NBA, nobody's going to feel sorry for us. It's going to be that way the rest of the way so we got to strap it up, lace it up and be ready to go to work."
David Lee had 21 points and 12 rebounds, while Klay Thompson added 19 points and seven boards for Golden State (27-17).
"I think we finally got to settle in today," said Lee. "We are only going to get better working together. We had 62 points in the paint tonight. I thought that was because we really focused on going inside and finishing at the rim."
Carl Landry had six of his 12 points in the fourth quarter for Golden State and Andrew Bogut returned from an injury to also score 12 as the Warriors earned their first victory in four games against Eastern Conference opponents this month.
Harrison Barnes and Jarrett Jack each scored 14 for the Warriors, who wrap up a four-game road trip at Cleveland on Tuesday.
Monday marked Bogut's return to the Warriors' lineup after missing 38 games recovering from surgery in April for a micro fracture in his left ankle. Bogut played four games this season before deciding in November that his ankle wasn't healthy enough.
"It's been a long season for me so far, a frustrating season both mentally and physically," said Bogut. "Just to be out there, running up and down the court again, and especially getting a win, was very satisfying. It's been a bumpy ride but I think it's at a stage now where I'm ready to progress."
Up by two points to begin the fourth, the Warriors pulled away with a 12-3 run as Toronto missed 10 of its first 11 field goal attempts of the quarter.
DeMar DeRozan, who missed practice Sunday because he too is battling the flu, had a career-high nine assists to go along with 21 points for Toronto.
"It's just me understanding teams are going to play me differently and understanding if there's two guys on me somebody's going to be open," said DeRozan of finding his teammates. "That's my biggest thing — understanding night-in, night-out teams are going to try to get the ball out of my hands. I just got to make the right decisions."
Ed Davis had 12 points for the Raptors (16-29), while Alan Anderson, Jose Calderon and Terrence Ross each scored 11.
Amir Johnson, who came into the game averaging 14.6 points and 9.1 rebounds in his last 10 games, finished with nine points and five rebounds.
Warriors guard Stephen Curry left late in the third quarter after he twisted his ankle. Curry finished with 17 points in 26 minutes of action. He came in averaging 30.3 points against the Raptors — his highest against any team.
"I just stepped on someone's foot and have to see how it responds tomorrow," said Curry.
Toronto finished January 4-6 at home and is now 7-15 against the Western Conference this season.
Note: Raptors guard Kyle Lowry missed the game with back spasms. ... Gray's previous high was 19 points, set with Chicago against Toronto on April 16, 2008. ... Lee has an NBA-high 18 games with at least 20 points and 10 rebounds. ... All five Golden State starters reached double figures in scoring, the first time that's happened this seasonReport Typo/Error

Challenging Start for LADA Sport LUKOIL in Marrakesh
Posted by: newsla on Apr 13, 2014 - 04:27 PM
Challenging Start for LADA Sport LUKOIL in Marrakesh
LADA Sport LUKOIL had a positive start to the Moroccan leg of the 2014 FIA World Touring Car Championship (WTCC) on the Circuit Moulay El Hassan street track, but was prevented from reaching its potential in qualifying by debilitating new-car teething problems (Saturday 12 April).
The latest addition to the LADA Sport LUKOIL fold, Rob Huff, showed a promising turn of speed straight out of the blocks on Friday by posting a 1m46.798s to go sixth fastest overall in the dayâs sole test session.
The 2012 FIA WTCC Champion held fourth on the timing screens for much of the 30-minute session but was eventually demoted to sixth when Hugo Valente and Tiago Monteiro drilled in last-gasp glory runs.
However, Huff and his young Russian teammate, Mikhail Kozlovskiy, continued bettering their pace during the build-up to qualifying on Saturday.
âHuffyâ â LADA Sport LUKOILâs newest recruit â successfully broke through the 1m45s barrier to climb as high as fourth on the FP2 leaderboard, while his Russian stable-mate steadily increased his speed to finally get a 1m47.980s under his belt.
Thompsonâs practice running was heavily curtailed as the LADA Sport LUKOIL team grappled with various teething problems carried over from pre-season testing that are an inevitable, yet inconvenient part of a carâs early build and development process.
The frustrated Briton could only look on from the pit lane as his teammates continued clocking up practice mileage and was well and truly on the back foot going into qualifying having only lapped the 4.54mile Marrakech street circuit a handful of times.
A diminished field of 18 cars took to the track for the first part of qualifying after an FP2 collision took Gianni Morbidelli out of action for the session and Gabriele Tarquini for the remainder of the weekend.
Despite a lack of practice, Thompson valiantly clawed his way into the second part of qualifying, which determines the starting order from positions six to 12.
âThommoâ was on the bubble as the clock ticked down to the end of the 20-minute Q1 session, but immediately broke into the 1m46s in Q2 to qualify 11th on a 1m46.433s.
âThe boys have worked tirelessly so I canât fault them at all, but Iâm never happy to qualify 11th,â said Thompson. âMy car has not been fast enough in a straight line compared to the other two all weekend and it wasnât possible to follow cars, even in the slipstream. Weâve been blighted by various other teething problems too and, although Iâm satisfied to have done the best I possibly could, itâs frustrating to come so close to breaking into the top ten. We need to figure it out and find performance overnight because this is one opportunity weâve missed.â
A red-flag stoppage in the dying moments of Q1 ultimately prevented the OCC LASIK-backed racer Rob Huff from ascending further than 13th on the timesheets and taking part in Q2.
âI start race one from 13th on the grid, but thereâs a long way to go tomorrow . Iâm relying on a good starting position in the reversed grid race to ensure we achieve a solid result before leaving Marrakech. I managed some good laps in free practice and the 1m45s I did in FP2 was on old tyres â it was a good lap, but I wasnât giving absolutely everything. Whatâs doubly frustrating is that the run on my second set of tyres was cut short by a red flag. I was about a second up on my best time and would have comfortably made it into the top ten, even with the vibration. So itâs frustrating because we definitely have a lot more pace in the car, but we always knew this would be an uphill struggle.â
âWeâre suffering with the language barrier at the moment and Iâm having to start learning Russian quite quickly to make sure we solve issues and improve the car,â said Huff. â I had a vibration as soon as I left the garage, which prevented me from accelerating along the straights and pushing through the corners. Itâs frustrating, but the team will pull the car apart once itâs out of parc ferme tonight and hopefully solve the problem.
Kozlovskiy qualified immediately behind Huff in 14th and said: âAs we had no enough time for testing, I need time to understand how this new car works in various circuit sectors. The aggressive brake pads were also not easy to get used to them quickly. We had some problems with the brakes in free practice and had to bed-in new ones in qualifying, so I lost the first two laps when my tyres were freshest. For sure, I would have liked more time to taste the car before qualifying. Yesterday during testing, some issues came up, as they always do when racing new machinery. However, our mechanics were able to solve most of them during the night. They are working really hard.â

JASON Forster has paid tribute to the backroom team he believes are helping turn Chippenham into a sustainable force at National League level.
The Allington Field head coach saw flanker Frazer Clilverd and wing Ryan Surry run in two tries each as the home side started 2013 as they ended 2012 – with a try spree on home turf.
While the players' performances have proved up to the mark – with the club safely ensconced in mid-table – former Wales international Forster says the coaching structure is also reaping dividends.
"The coaching structure is right and there is a good mix there,'' said the ex-Dragons man. "I think we've got a good balance there and that we have a solid sustainable club, with teams doing well in their leagues.''
"We brought Dale (Burn, his Welsh compatriot) in to work with the backs. Last year the (first team) backs scored about 36 tries in total, now it's 45 already. They've got on to what Dale wants and have produced the goods.
"We've got good combinations throughout between forwards and backs, but we've also got people who do so much work behind the scenes.
"The likes of Kevin Snape (first team manager) is Chippenham through and through and is the glue that holds us together and there are a lot of people doing a hell of a lot of work and we appreciate their time and effort.''
Struggling Oxford were by no means pushovers, but Chippenham's clinical finishing proved too much.
Full-back Sam Saunders kicked an early penalty and converted interception tries scored by Surry and Rupert Crockett.
Centre Luke Evans scored a length-of-the-field effort for the visitors, converted by fly-half Will Hilton, but skipper Bobby Lyons scored after Surry's chip-ahead before half time for the hosts, who had lock Mat Bye sin-binned after what looked like a case of mistaken identity by Devon referee Simon Lane.
Clilverd and Surry added scores after breaks in the early stages of the second half, Saunders converting once.
A late flourish brought scores for flanker John Boddington and Clilverd again late on, Harrold Whittington crossing and Hilton converting for Oxford.

Director Jeethu Joseph and actor Prithviraj is basking in the success of their last flick Memories. The movie has portrayed Prithviraj is a new avatar, who played an investigating cop in the film and was also a chronic drunkard. The movie has become a Blockbuster. The latest news is that the team will once again be back with a new film.
Director Jeethu Joseph has confirmed that he and Prithviraj is all set to team up once again. The untitled film will have Prithviraj in a fresh new look. According to the director, he approached the actor with the script of the film, while Prithvi was shooting for his movie Masters. Prithviraj is said to have been impressed with the script and agreed to do the movie.
The rest of the cast and crew is yet to be finalised. Currently, Jeethu Joseph is busy with the pre-production work of his upcoming movie Dhrishyam. Mohanlal and Meena are playing lead roles in this film. The movie was earlier tilted My Family. Meanwhile, Prithviraj's upcoming release London Bridge, which was earlier slated for an Onam release, has been postponed to October.
Hope that Jeethu and Prithviraj will bring another Blockbuster similar to their Memories.

Pope Francis has a mini-me.
Francis kissed a child dressed up as a pope as the new must-have Carnival costume made its debut at the pope's general audience on Wednesday.
The child, who was crying, was hoisted up to Francis as he drove by in his open-topped jeep. Another child dressed in a similar white cassock and white skullcap was also on hand, as were kids dressed as Swiss Guards.
During Carnival in Italy, children often go to school and spend their weekends dressed up in pirate, princess - and now pope - costumes. Carnival, also known as mardi gras, marks the period before the church's solemn Lenten season begins. - Sapa-AP

Exceeded our expectations but we had a Penthouse Suite: Norwegian Jade Cruise Review by Wanderlust 50
Overall Member Rating
Exceeded our expectations but we had a Penthouse Suite
Destination: Europe - Eastern Mediterranean
Embarkation: Barcelona
The best part of the suite is that you can go to Cagney's for breakfast or lunch. No line ups and the food was good. Plus it was quiet there and made for a peaceful and relaxing dining experience.
I had read many negative reports about the food so was not expecting much but have to say overall most of our meals were good. We only ate the the Pacific Grand dining room 3 times and never did make it to the Alizar. Our favorite speciality dining experience was the Teppanyaki. We ate there twice and both times I had the lobster, More scallops and prawn combo...really good. We also ate twice at the Italian restaurant and have great food there too. Our big disappointment was the suchi restaurant. We ate there the first night as we are both sushi lovers and were so disappointed we never returned. The fish was excellent but the rice was like eating glue. Sushi lovers know that the rice is the secret ingredient to good sushi so if you are like us and love sushi, just order the sashimi to avoid the rice.
The entertainment was good...not Broadway good but again we didn't have high expectations. Our one disappointment was the murder mystery dinner. We had signed up with 4 other friends but when we arrived to get our instructions, we were put with another table. Not that that was so bad but the murder mystery was totally lame. It was written in 1996 and based in Hawaii. Apparently they are working on a new murder mystery and they need it. There was alot of hype about getting a booking for this dinner but I would not recommend it at all. They even said that there was a free dinner provided but being that it was in the Pacific Grand Dining Room, I wasn't sure how they justified that as being free, when there is no cost to eat there. The other 4 people were lots of fun so we enjoyed the evening but it was not what we expected.
The internet was wireless in our cabin. The cheapest package that they have is 40 cents per minute. I can't compare to other cruise lines but it seems really expensive. They had a couple of bonus plans available during our 12 nights so watch your daily programs.
Also, be aware that if you want to change currency, they charge $10USD to do this. They even wanted to charge us $10 to break a 200 Eurpo note to smaller bills. This was a blatant cash grab...shame on NCL for this!!!!!
So, the best parts of our cruise were: 1. the ports of call and 2. the new friends we met
We joined cruise critic about 45 days prior to our sailing and that was a bonus. We attended the meet and great on Day 2 and connected with lots of fun people. We also offered our cabin on the cabin call so got to see lots of different cabins.
We didn't do any of the NCL shore excursions. They were all very expensive and the thought of travelling with a group of 50 was not appealing. There small groups were so pricey that I ended up researching local tour operators and found some great tours that I booked direct. The only downside of doing this is that if you are late returning to the ship, you might miss the boat, so to speak. We did have 1 close call in Egypt when we got stuck in a huge traffic jam and arrived to the ship 10 minutes before we were supposed to be back on board. It caused a bit of stress. In the end the ship was delayed by 1.5 hours as an NCL bus was late arriving back so all that worry was for not.
We also loved the Freedom concept. I never did wear my dressy outfits, which I was happy about. It was more of a smart casual experience. I heard some people complaining that they thought people should have dressed up more but we loved the less formal atmosphere. We also loved the fact that we didn't have to eat at the same time each night and at the same table. The average age was also lower than what we expected so maybe the Freedom concept appeals to a younger clientele.
I would have liked more 'educational' type seminars offered. They are still offering napkin folding which I think could be replaced with something more interesting. How about some digital photography or more info on the ports.
Make sure to go to the Dancing with the Stars night in the Spinakker Lounge. We laughed so hard that night. It was serious competition and very entertaining! The karaoke was fun too.
On some previous departures there were lots of people sick but that didn't seem to be a problem on the Feb. 14th departure. They even allowed passengers to serve themselves from the buffets for the last few days so hopefully the norovirus (or whatever it was) that was so serious on the previous departures is now a thing of the past. There were sanitary hand washing stations set up everywhere so use them often.
Although we didn't carry on any alcohol on board we talked to many that did and it was not taken away when they boarded. I did see lots of wine being confiscated when returning from shore excursions though.
Overall, I'd say our experience was very good on NCL but again that might have been in part to the Suite we had. Alot of people felt NCL nickled and dimed them to death but other than the currency exchange charge we didn't feel like that. I will say that their shore excursions are ridiculously priced so maybe they are making up for the lower priced cabins (compared to other cruise lines). Less

Cabin review: SC11012 Family Penthouse with Balcony
Cabin 11012. Penthouse Suite. We loved our cabin. It was just the 2 of us (my Mom and I) so we had tons of space. When you enter the cabin, there is a door to the left and that is the second bedroom and another bathroom with a toilet, sink and shower. If you go straight you enter the dining room, complete with a small table and 4 chairs. Next s the living room with a couch, 2 chairs and a small coffee table, plus a flat screen TV. This is where your balcony is. In the second 'room' accessed through a walkway, is the bedroom, complete with a queen bed (very, very comfortable)2 night tables, more storage, 2 night tables and another flat screen TV. The bathroom is open to the bedroom but can be closed off with a very heavy curtain. The bathroom is wonderful. There's a nice sized shower, a toilet and a soaker tub that has a huge window beside it. Plus another TV. And 2 sinks with lots of storage space. There is tons of closet space in this Suite. I think you could fit 6 in this suite although some would have to be children. The 2nd bedroom has a couch that folds out to a bed as well as a single wall bed that folds down. A few people said they found the balcony on the smallish size but for the 2 of us, it was fine. We were on Deck 11 and just off the elevators. I thought it might be noisy but we never heard any noise from the hallway or elevator area.Read All Family Penthouse with Balcony (SC) Reviews >>
Port and Shore Excursions
We spent an hour around Alexandria before leaving for Cairo and in hindsight that was unnecessary. Spend all your time in Cairo if possible. The pyramids were bigger and much more impressive that what we expected...but didn't have enough time there. The Egyptian Museum was also excellent but you probably need a whole day there, not just an hour or 2. We insisted that we go to the Cairo Bazaar and were very glad we did, if only for 30 minutes. It doesn't open until 1100AM and I think stays open until the wee hours of the morning. Lots of interesting stuff to buy but more impressive were all the local people. We did abit of shopping and took tons of photos.
We also did the Sound and Light Show...the 930PM show. Some that went earlier said it wasn't dark enough to get the full benefit of the lights so chose a later show. It was quite cold at 930PM (Feb 21st) so dress warm.
We also upgraded to the Mena Oberoi Hotel and loved it!!!!!! The fancier dining room (the only place that we could get a table) was excellent and reasonably priced. They had a fantastic singer as well as a whirling dervish and a belly dancer...both excellent! Couldn't believe that I got to see a whirling dervish. The Oberoi is over 100 years old and they have just completed a new wing. The new pool area just opened 3 days before we arrived. Although we didn't get to swim (or even relax around it) it was beautiful to look at from our balcony. Our room was totally soundproof too even though we faced a major street. I would stay there again in a heartbeat.
Give yourself lots of time to get back to Alexandria. We got stuck in a traffic jam so had some tense moments wondering if we'd make it back on time.
Also, be prepared to see lots of filth in Egypt. Lots of people commented that they hated Egypt because of the poverty and the kids selling stuff around the pyramids. I guess if you have never experienced this it would be shocking but isn't that the reason we travel, to see things that we wouldn't see at home???? At least by going to places like Egypt, we are supporting the local economy. If you are really appalled by 3rd world countries don't leave the ship in Egypt. For us it was a highlight and more than ever now I want to do a 2 week tour of Egypt.
Finally the sun came out in Athens and we had a wonderful day. We spent the morning at the Acropolis and the museum. Both were amazing. I still cannot believe the historical places we visited on the cruise. The museum was well worth wandering around, even though we got stuck in the elevator. There are security guards everywhere there and I'm sure our shrieking from the locked elevator could be heard throughout the museum!!!
We had a late lunch at the Plaka. The food was amazing. I was alittle disappointed that the shopping was so touristy at the Plaka but I guess that was to be expected.
We avoided the carpet factory but did go to a leather shop where they put on a fashion show for us, complete with disco balls and dimmed lighting!! Also went to pottery factory. Our friends bought some beautiful plates and bowls that they had shipped back.
The tour operator was Rome in Limo and they were excellent.
I heard that there were 6 or 7 passengers left behind in Italy as they missed the ship. The port is at least an hour away from Rome so be sure to calculate that time into your return to the ship.

Technical Abstract: Inorganic and organic N were determined on a Waukegan silt loam soil for a 90-wk aerobic incubation experiment. N-15 labeled soil samples were taken from 2 different tillage treatments (till, T or no-till, NT), and 2 residue management techniques (returned, R or harvested, NR). Triplicate samples of 4 treatment combinations were incubated in polyethylene bags at 35C under constant water conditions. NO3-N concentration was determined at periodic intervals after KCl extraction. Using a Mason jar diffusion technique, extracted samples were converted into NH4-N for total N and N-15 analyses. Atom % N-15 (inorganic) increased, reached a plateau, and then decreased. The extent of each phase depended on the treatment. This information was used to estimate the N-15 content in the organic pools of the model NCSOIL.

A WOMAN who conquered an eating disorder is taking on a charity challenge to help other sufferers.
Hannah Chislett, of Puddletown , will cycle 54 miles from London to Brighton, in aid of eating disorder charity Beat.
The 25-year-old, who used to suffer from bulimia, was inspired to raise money for the charity after hearing about their work.
She said: "I have been ill myself and I didn't know about the charity. I wish I had known about how they can help.
"I'm not at that stage myself anymore, but it's nice to get some money for people that do need it."
Hannah said the online message boards run by the charity are particularly important services.
She said: "Having an eating disorder is a very lonely experience.
"In a small town like Dorchester , there is not a lot of help available. I was told I was fine, that there was nothing wrong with me.
"I pushed everyone away, which is what many sufferers do, and I have lost all my friends."
She added: "Having someone to talk to, someone who is in a similar situation, is very useful."
Hannah traces the start of her illness to a break-up in her family.
She said: "I had to take on a parent role, looking after everyone, and the counsellor told me that bulimia was my way of telling everyone I could not cope."
Meeting her fiancé helped her to fight the illness.
She added: "It's thanks to him that I got better.
"I was really quite poorly when we met three years ago, but having him there, and knowing that there is a future, something to look forward to, helped me fight it."
The couple are set to marry in December.
Beat estimates up to 1.6million people in the UK suffer from an eating disorder.
Those most likely to be sufferers are young women from 12 to 25, although people of any age can be affected, and around 12 per cent of sufferers are male.
As well as online message boards, the charity offers services such as helplines for young people and adults, support groups, and one to one counselling.
The bike ride takes place on September 16.

Wigan Warriors journeyman Blake Green is planning on using the World Club Challenge to relaunch his NRL career.
The 27-year-old has blossomed in the Super League since joining Hull KR in 2011, culminating in a man-of-the-match performance for Wigan in their grand final win last year in his first season at the club.
Green left the NRL unable to secure a regular place after stints with Parramatta, Cronulla and Canterbury.
Off contract at the end of this year, Green said he had unfinished business in the NRL and wanted to impress Australian clubs in Wigan's world title clash against the Sydney Roosters on Saturday night.
"When I played first grade in the NRL it came a bit too soon for me and I just wasn't ready," Green said. "I think coming to England has gotten me some more experience and playing first grade every week has prepared me for it. I've still got a season to go at Wigan but hopefully I can come back to the NRL. If that's not the case I really enjoy Wigan and it's helped my game out a lot."
The former Australian Schoolboy spent the bulk of his 43-NRL game career being shifted around positions. He has played only five-eighth in England, leading Wigan to premiership and Challenge Cup success last year.
"Before I left things used to worry and concern me," Green said. "I understand how the game works now and I just have to play footy. We are over here to win the game and [getting a NRL contract] will look after itself. I used to go out and play footy for the fun of it, now I understand where I need to get on the field and what plays need to be put on at certain times. There's a little bit of pressure there but I'm confident I can handle the occasion."
Green will square off against former Parramatta reserve grade teammate James Maloney at five-eighth. He also will oppose one-time Cronulla teammate Sam Moa. "I watch the NRL all the time," Green said. "They've got some outstanding individuals and some powerful humans in their team. We understand how good they are. It's a very good opportunity for myself and Matty Smith to come up against some good halves in Mitchell Pearce and James."
Wigan arrived in Australia on Monday night after beating a weakened New Zealand Warriors side in a trial last week while the Roosters fine-tuned their preparations with players mixed between featuring at the Auckland Nines and a trial win against Newcastle in Wyong.

STOCKHOLM (Jul. 27)
Anti-Jewish massacres are feared by the Jewish population in Riga, capital of Latvia, as a result of the intense anti-Semitic propaganda which the Nazi occupational forces are now carrying on in the city, a report from Riga to the Svenska Dagebladet states today.
The report reveals that thousands of Jews have been arrested by the Nazis in Riga, Prison camps in Latvia are overcrowded with Jewish men and women who did not retreat with the Soviet Armies. More than 3,800 Jews are held in the Riga Central Prison, the normal capacity of which is 1,500. Many Jews have "disappeared" after being taken from their homes by Nazi soldiers.
"About ninety percent of the Latvian and Jewish intellectuals in Riga have been wiped out," the Swedish newspaper reports.
The same newspaper carries a report from its Berlin correspondent stating that a completely Ukrainian administration has been established by the German authorities in Lwow. Heading this administration is a Ukrainian agent of the Gestapo, a certain Polinski, who is to emulate the Gestapo policy in Poland by establishing a ghetto for Jews in Lwow, and by introducing all the anti-Jewish regulations which are now in force throughout the Nazi-held Polish territory.

Spanish researchers on Wednesday announced that they have discovered the molecule in HIV which is responsible for the propagation of the AIDS virus in the human body.
The discovery opens the door to the development of a new family of drugs to halt the spread of the virus and hopefully, the development of a vaccine.
Director of the IrsiCaixa AIDS Research Institute Bonaventura Clotet said that the discovery would help develop a more efficient response from the immune system, although it will need around 10-15 years before a product able to block the vital molecule can be developed, tested and placed on the market, given that work is still in an early stage.

Family Law
Family Law Questions? Ask a Family Lawyer Online.
Hello there.
Hi, thank you for your question. I have to ask--why can't the lender locate the first vehicle for repossession?
Not sure. I am the father of the daughter (2nd party) and they called her at work today and told her if she didn't make the 2 payments by close of business today, they would repossess her car since they couldn't find his.
Typically, the lender holds title to the vehicle until the loan is completely paid off. I realize that this is your daughter's vehicle, but do we know if the lender currently holds title to her vehicle?
Yes, the lender, Toyota Financial has both loans. The loan on the husband's vehicle is with his father as cosigner. Daughter is not on the loan or listed on the registration of the vehicle in arrears.
He, although, is listed on the loan on her car, but it is not in arrears.
What you will usually see is that the loan agreements permit the lender to enforce the loan against any vehicle taken under the name of the borrower. In other words, it is usually built into the contract, and I would not expect anything different if the lender is Toyota Financial. The lender is the innocent party in all of this, they are owed money, and they have access to collateral to enforce, so they are going to do it if possible, and if the name of the borrower is on any vehicle loan, the contract typically permits that to happen. So even though the borrower may share the vehicle or loan with another person, it can still be enforced (which is also incorporated into the loan). In other words, you can repossess a second vehicle to satisfy a debt on a first vehicle, even if the second vehicle is shared. A court's judgment of possession and loan obligations affects the rights of the parties to each other--the innocent third party lender does not have their contract dissolved as a result...
because the nuances of every case are different, you should not rely on this information as advice or apply it to a specific situation without a more thorough in-person consultation with counsel. But that said, your daughter is still a victim here and she is not without rights...
when you marry, you legally entangle yourself with your spouse and it is not uncommon to remain entangled long after the marriage itself is dissolved, so this is not unexpected and as much as I am sure they wish they could be rid of each other, this is the reality of the situation. Your daughter did not ask for this to happen, but this is what is happening so she has to deal with the circumstances as they are. Even assuming the lender can repossess the vehicle, the delinquent spouse can still be held accountable for their failure. The victim spouse has a few options. First, any willful, knowing violation of a court's order is contempt of court; contempt of court is a crime that is punishable by fine and/or jail. It's one thing if the spouse is simply broke and can't make payments, but when the spouse is hiding their collateral or making it unavailable, it avoidably shifts the burden back to the victim spouse. Generally speaking, an action for contempt of court may be pursued. On the civil side of things, the victim spouse may simultaneously make payment on the debt of both vehicles and sue the delinquent spouse for reimbursement for the amount.
So, if she pays the past due payments on his vehicle this time; if he becomes in arrears again, they could take her car unless she makes those payments? What rights does she have to either recoup those payments (made by me)? By not following the decree, is he in contempt of court??
If she pays off the car that has both names on that lien, would that absolve her of his obligation to pay his vehicle payment?
If the victim spouse fails to pay and the car simply gets repossessed, it will not affect the victim spouse's credit rating simply because the repossession took place--the victim spouse would have to violate her own loan terms for that to happen.Any willful, knowing violation of an order of the court is contempt of court. In the meantime, the victim spouse generally has a choice--make the payments for the other spouse and seek restitution, or don't make payments and risk repossession of the vehicle. It's not her fault, but it is the situation and she has to make the best choice under the circumstances even if the situation is not ideal.
In regards XXXXX XXXXX statement of "the delinquent spouse can still be held accountable for their failure"; she is not delinquent and is not listed on the vehicle that is delinquent in any manner.
I was not referring to your daughter as the delinquent spouse. I was referring to the husband who was delinquent on payment of his vehicle.
If she pays off her car that has both names on that lien, would that absolve her of his obligation to pay his vehicle payment?
Since she is unable to make the back payments and I will be forced to, what recourse do I have? Since I am making the payments, can I make a claim of the vehicle?
It depends on our assumptions. We have the delinquent spouse who is not paying the loan on the vehicle in his possession and we have the victim spouse who pays off the vehicle with the loan in the name of both spouses. If we are assuming that title to the vehicle would be transferred into the name of the victim spouse only, the lender could not repossess the victim spouse's vehicle as soon as the delinquent spouse's name was dropped from the loan and the title. If we are assuming that title to the vehicle would be transferred into the name of both the victim spouse and the delinquent spouse, it is possible that the lender could still take possession of the vehicle.
May I safely assume that you do not have any legal obligation to make payments on the vehicle? This would be a voluntary payment on your part?
Yes, trying to prevent my daughter's vehicle from being repossessed.
She is making payment, but I am giving her the money.
Since this is less than $1,000, should I just take him to small claims court? Since I am in Texas and he is in Iowa, would I have to do this EVERY time this occurs?
Or should the family law court have jurisdiction on the case?
I'll say again that because the nuances of every case are different, you should not rely on this information as advice or apply it to a specific situation without a more thorough in-person consultation with counsel. But that said, you have not indicated to me that there is a legal relationship between you and your daughter's ex-husband. You have said that she has a legal relationship with him, and you have a legal relationship with her (by virtue of the payments). You could sue her and she could sue him, but there needs to be a legal relationship to successfully bring suit. You have not said that he owes anything to you, although he does have a legal duty to your daughter.
Another option is for the victim spouse to ask the family court to order the delinquent spouse to surrender the vehicle to the lender, and basically go back and ask the court to throw him in jail if he thereafter fails to do so. It's not an instant fix, but it would keep the matter from perpetuating.
I have kids of my own and I completely understand just wanted to take care of this yourself, but this is between your daughter and her ex-husband as far as the courts are concerned. I really am sorry.
There you go. Thanks. I appreciate your time and help.
Certainly. Did you have any other question?
Would I need to retain counsel to have family court do this or can it be done in a less expensive manner?
Whether an individual can handle their own case without the assistance of legal counsel depends on the individual. The family courts have gone to great lengths to make themselves more accessible to the public. They have partially succeeded--things are nothing like they were 30 years ago, but the process is not at all intuitive. Handling your own case is like preparing your own income tax returns; some people will always need professional assistance, some people are sophisticated enough to handle their own matter, but the majority of people can stumble through their own issues successfully as long as there is nothing unusually complex about their case. If your funds are low, I would recommend that you nonetheless consult with an attorney for an hour or two to help you organize your initial filings so you can at least start off on the right foot.
Does that make sense?
Yes sir, it does. I will request a date for hearing tomorrow. Thank you so much. I will now sign off and rate your work. Take care. Jim
